RUSS WAGE SCALE
ISA FEVER CHART
Every Workman Tells Differ
ent Story and Chaos Pre-
sents Big Puzzle.

MOSCOW. Nov. 3O.-CBy a staff
correspondent of the Associated
Press. THE Russian wage scale
under present conditions is more
puzzling than a fever chart. Every
workman tells a different tale.
Apparently the standard wage for
an average workmen at the present
time Is about $4,000 rubles a month.
which at the time of writing is
roughly equivalent 10 so cents. That
is the wage of a workman employed
by the government. But in addition
there is a great variety Of perqui-
sites. If he gets them.
IT am supposed 10 get a pound Of
bread a day. also free car rides be
tween and 10 in the morning and
4 and I'm the afternoon. 1 am
also supposed to get a clothing and
shoe allowance. but I get the orders
for these things and find that the
supply is exhausted one workman
who IL employed with the American
Relief administration explained TO
the Associated Press correspondent.
"Oh. yes. I get some free theater
and concert tickets, too he added.
When pressed 10 tell whether that
was the entire amount OF HIS in
come. the man admitted that he
held two Jobs under the government
and sometimes got bread at two
places. He knew OF men who held
three Jobs and managed 10 keep
themselves on three government
pay rolls. That was the only way
It was possible to get enough 20 live
on.
II Is apparently very easy 20 hold
a government position without Civ
ing many hours TO the service, and
consequently the positions are held
to a considerable extent for the pur-
pose Of getting rations. overnment
employees engage in all other sorts
OF work. They run shops. sell their
belongings in the markets. deal in
wood. drive cabs and take real e.
tate commissions.
Russians OF high and low degree
have undoubtedly acquired a great
deal keener money sense under the
Bolshevist regime and the avidity
with which they are taking TO trade
indicates that they will be less
thriftless than In old times. Chill
dren. particularly. are showing
themselves 10 be sharp traders.

FIRM ON TARIFF, "
HARDING URGED
President Requested to Take
Strong Stand in Address to
New Congress.

WASHINGTON. Nov. 3O.-Pres't
Harding has been urged to take a
strong stand in his address to the
new congress next week in behalf Of
pending tariff legislation.
Confidence was evidenced among
many congressional leaders Wednes-
day that the power of the executive
would be put behind the bill which
now repOses with the senate finance
committee.
The suggestion was said TO have
been made TO Mr. Harding that he
recommend. in the interest OF speedy
disposition of the measure. the elm
nation of the American valuation
plan from the house bill and the
writing OF a tariff law on the basis
OF the old method OF invoiced~priCes.
He was understood to have been
urged to ask congress then to in
clude IN the bill a provision empOw-
ering the executive TO apply the
American valuation basis Of assess
ing duties where, after surveys, it
is shown that added protection is
needed.
Another suggestion reported to
have been given Mr. Harding was
that the house bin provisions re-
garding anti-dumping be stricken
out and a law. described as having
teeth" be enacted supplementary to
the tariff. A division OF opinion
among the republican senator's was
said 10 exist as TO the merits and
practicability of the American valu-
alton plan and it was understood
this situation had been outlined to
the executive.
Some republican members OF the
finance committee declared Wednes-
day that even with a call by the
president for more speed. there could
hardly be a tariff law before March.
One asserted it would be the middle
OF May before the bill finally becom-
es a law.
The late date for final action on
the measure was based on the set OF
circumstances surrounding the build
ing OF rates on the American valua-
tion basis. II was stated that the
gathering OF information on produc-
tons, costs and wholesale selling
prices by the treasury. upon which
the rates are 10 be computed By the
committee. could not be completed
under three weeks or a month.
