THE sIX-HoUR DAY.

One of the demands made by the
striking coal miners is that they be
granted a six-hour day and a five-day
week. If that kind OF a working
schedule Will produce q supply of coal
sufficient to meet the country's needs
it becomes evident that there are too
many miners.
This is a phase of the controversy
in which the public is directly con-
cerned. In the end the consumer
pays the miners wages and he should
not be required TO pay three men to
do two mems work
Efforts to hold down or restrict
production on the theory that the
method makes more work for more
men or prolongs the work of the men
already employed defeat the very pur-
pose which they are intended to serve.
The element of cost in production is a
fact which cannot be ignored by those
who hope to enjoy the maximum re-
suit OF their labor. When three men
do a job that two men could do Just
as we'll. all three suffer with the com
munity in general. The method in
creases costs all along the line and
perhaps directly affects the income of
at least two OF the men. The practice
also prevents the third man from
finding employment in some industry
in which he is needed and can be
prOfitably employed. and therefore re-
suits in decreasing production inSsome
other field which if worked by the
useless third man would return much
81 s-1 TeT-
the first job and to the entire COM
munity.
1t IS no answer to say that there
arena enough jobs. The trouble with
that theory is that the practice of
forcing three men into a two-man job
never gives the third man time to find
mis- place at something else. The saw
Ing that would result from the de
creased cost would be forced-into in
vestment and would create new work
The Topeka state journal. [volume] (Topeka, Kansas) 1892-1980, 1922-04-06

for the idle to do. Neither ~ it an
answer TO say that that process would
take too long and that the third man
would be out OF employment until It
was completed.
Putting three men into a two-man
Job ultimately forces all three out of
. job and then the two who would
have been employed all the time are
forced into idIeness with the third
man. There is no profit or advantage
in that for anybody Giving less than
a days work for a days pay has the
same effect as the practice of putting
more men on a job than the job
needs. These practices are among the
fundamental errors which must be
corrected before we can face the fu-
ture with a feeling Of full confidence
in our ability to meet its problems.

Prosperity depends on agriculture
but business depends on steel When
the steel mills are busy the railroads
are busy and the whole country soon
shows increased activity in every line
of industry. The most satisfactory
trade developments Of last month
were reported from the steel and
building industries. Building opera
lions continued generally good during
the month. and an increase in the
construction of business buildings and
industrial plants was reported. The
steel trade developed its activity to
about 20 per cent of capacity, with
new orders coming in at the rate OF
about rs per cent of normal The
growing demand for steel, partly as a
result of buying by railroads, tended
to stfffen prices. and some advances
were reported. The various price in
dexes showed a general advance in
wholesale prices during February, the
higher prices in farm products,
which were modified somewhat by
later reactions, being an important
factor. Steel trade at 20 per cent OF
the capacity OF the plants means an
output of almost 100 per cent of pre-
war capacity. owing TO the vast extern
sions made during the war.
