THE LIVING WAGE.

TUNHERE is much piausbihty in the assertion made by
n prominent labor leader that the industry which
cannot pay living wage ought not 10 survive
The principal dcuty is that there is wide difference
OF opinion as to what constitutes living wage, and
wide variation in cost Of Ewing in different communities
and under different conditions making it impossible to
determine definitely either upon evidence by arbitrary
ipse dixt what constitutes living wage.
The accredited economists OF Of the labor organ
izatons declared not long ago that $500 year is
necessary in order to permit workman to support
his family according to decent standards This MEANS ap
parenty that in his opinion $500 per year income to
each OF It's employees the least industry in Whining
ton and elsewhere should expect to pay and If it cannot
pay that It ought not continue 10 exist
Broad generaizations concerning economic problems
are dangerous and misleading
The bare statement that the industry which cannot pay
living wage ought not exist made for the purpose
Of supporting the implied assertion that every industry
that does exist ought pay what It's employees consider
living wage.
II would be lust as sound however, TO take the other
view that when employees ind that industry does not
pay them what they consider living wage, they should
seek employment in some other industry that Will. Ina
is the course the stockholders OF the railroads have pur
sued When they found that railroad stocks would no
pay reasonable dividend on the investment they solC
the stocks and invested elsewhere
For al reason the market values Of stocks have rapidly
declined and investors have lost accordingly.
Statistics will show that very large proportiop OF the
farms OF the country including many Of those in Della
ware do not pay a living wage to the and their
families II the wage is to be computed according to the
standard that would be demanded by city employees Yet
il would be hardly economies assert that because
agriculture in some years and localities and in many
individual cases in all years, does not pay living wage
TO those engaged therein agriculture ought to be a0an-
doned.
Evening journal., 1921-06-03

places and the remainder OF the
places should be distributed with a
view to placing educators on the
board.
l cannot believe that it is wrong
to say that at least four of the mem
bers of the new board should be
men with college or university de-
grees or their equivalents. By
equivalents mean the same edu-
cation and ability that the average
college or university graduate has.
Should four of the members
be college graduates, that would
leave three members to be divided
among the medical and bust
ness professions. Surely four edu-
Gators, two business men, or women,
and one physician would make an
ideal Board of Education!
do not care who contradicts the
statement, but 1 feel that il is al
most an impossibility for a person
who has not had the equivalent Of
a college education or that educa-
tion itself, to legislate properly for
people who are to be educated. The
average business man, or the aver
age business women, or the average
housewife, or any doctor will not
listen for a minute to a suggestion
to bring a person who is not educated
to educate into his or her business
or profession.
Hence. Mr.. Editor I should like

Better Cattle Pay
(From the New York Herald.) }

When you can touch the farmers
pocket there is a better chance Of
securing his attention than by any
other means, though printers ink
has been found effective with those
who buy a paper and read il.
When the campaign for the use OF
pure-bred sires was begun by the
Department OF Agriculture converts
came quickly from the ranks of those
who had taken short courses at
agricultural schools They saw the
benefits of employing pure-bred
males for the Improvement of stock,
and many of them were already
planning to replace the scrub bull or
stallion with one that had a registry
mum Der. The good-enough farmer
whose fences needed repairing and
whose implements were usually left
wherever they were last used had to
be moved by other influences. One
influence effective in such cases is
money, the need OF which is ever
present with the agriculturist who,
lacking initiative and enterprise. has
to meet his progressive brethren on
common ground.
With all such, the experience Of a
stockman in Elko county Nevada,
ought to be convincing. He marketed
grades Weighing 1900 to 1925 pounds
each, while his neigh bors were ship
ping scrub steers which scaled be-
tween 500 and 900 pounds. The
cattle were fattened on the same
pastures, were out OF the same type
of COWS hut tho greatar eiza was
attained by the progeny Of pure
bred bull. This same Nevada stock

at Washington says that, despite such
evidences Of the policys success. his
neighbors are slow TO supplant the
scrub male with one which has a
number in the herd book.
Evidently some of these far West
ern stock raisers believe with the
late Charles NJ. Hays. for a time
head Of the Southern Pacific and at
the time OF his death on the Titanic
president OF the Grand Trunk sys-
tenn OF Canada, that nothing i'm
proves live stock like crossing It
with a locomotive. Mr.. Hays was a
guest at one of the dinners of the
Montreal Jockey Club, and when
called upon for few remarks said
that he had been impressed by the
remarks OF those who advocated the
thoroughbred cross in producing bet
ter horses. He related his experience
in managing a railroad in the West
before the days Of fences.
Cattle were being killed almost
daily and the moment they were
dead a common steer was trans
formed into a Shorthorn and the or
binary mule became a pure-bred
Andalusian. Mr.. Hays said his board
Of directors concluded it would be
cheaper to build fences than pay for
live stock. Then the real race began
between the stockmen and the rail-
way people. the former striving to
keep just ahead OF the transportation
people, in order to have access to the
railway tracks. But if crossing with
locomotive is impossible, the next
best thing for the farmer who raises
live stock is to buy a pure-bred sire.

PUBLIC SCHOOLS.

Editor OF The Evening Journal
Sir; ! hope the voters at the
coming election, VIII see to it that no
candidate for the School Board is
elected who disbelieves in God; who
cannot write and speak the English
language correctly, who who is not
truly in sympathy with the govern
ment OF our public schools.
Our public schools are purely
American institutions The scholars
wards of the nation. The school
buildings should be best as to ma
terial. best as to sanitation and so
situated that the pupils will not be
compelled to study by artificial
light. There was time in the his
tory of our public schools when II
was necessary to put the Stars and
Stripes over the buildings
The time may come when It will
be necessary to put the Bible in the

SCHOOL BOARDS COMPOSITION

To the Editor OF The Evening Jour
nal:
Sir-There has been a decided
change in the educational policy Of
the State of Delaware during the
last few months and in connection
with that change, there has been
just as decided a change in the edu-
cational policy of the city of Will
mington. Citizens of Wilmington
are about to vote upon a now School
Board
Personally, 1 feel that the citizens
who are going to vote upon this
question should be fully informed Of
the ability of each candidate who
appears on the ticket.
Education is a business and
should be directed by men or women
who are qualified in that business.
do not feel that any Board of Edu-
cation for a city so large as Will
mington should be made up entire
ly of business men: neither do l feel
that It should be made up entirely
Of medical doctors. Both have their
places on the board but only their
