WAGES. PRICES. STRIKES

Indications are that the United
States is entering a second period
OF initiation, although il is believ
ed that il will not 20 as high or
last as long as the war boom.
Wise men and women will protect
themselves in this boom. They
won't 20 wild and forget that dol
lars will not come in forever. A
subber ball falls. II bounces sew.
eral times before settling; prices
Jump around the same way.
Wages OF day laborers in the
United States Steel Corporation
have been increased one fifth.
Other steel corporations have iol-
lowed. This means that a big bus
mess is expected this fall and that
there may be more jobs than men
TO fill them.
Take a look at the other side.
Steel products are about one
sixth higher than they were six
months ago. You Amarillo peo-
pie who buy steel products are the
ones that are paying for the in
crease. You cannot get around
the increased costs OF production.
The consumer must foot the bill.
Non-union miners have receiv-
ed wage increase averaging 81 per
cent from the II. c. Frick inter-
ests in Western Pennsylvania
Union soft coal miners in most
fields have gone back To- work at
the same prices they formerly re-
ceived. Hard coal miners aren't
satisfied. They want one-fiith
more. claiming they are more
highly skilled. A few years ago
anthracite miners had their claim
recognized by getting more than
bltuminous miners. Now they
are trying TO get their former
wage supremacy restored.
A bumper crop is expected
this year. Ssatisticians say that
the volume Of production means
more prosperity than a short crop
and high prices. The speed in
which agricultural products move

TO determine national prosperity.
il is declared. A harmful effect is
predicted II farmers try TO hold
their wheat and corn as they did
two years ago in efforts TO force
higher prices.
The railroad strike will even,u-
all affect agricultural prices il a
settlement is not effected at once.
Free movement OF crops and coal
must be resumed or the nation
will suffer. The farmers buying
power is one-fourth under that
before the war. The farmer is
demanding readjustrnent OF con-
ditions. He wants a buying pow

fixed artificially, while a farmers
income is regulated mostly by ma
