IN OTHER FIELDS OF LABOR

According to Harry w. Little, man
ager of the Southern Indiana Coal bu-
reau, the production percentage OF the
southern Indiana mines Is increasing
An increase in wages of 1919 cents
an hour has been requested by union
brcklayers Of st. Louis. The present
rate is $1.37R an hour and the men are
asking $3.50.
Wages of factory workers in New
York state average $2477 week
apiece, says industrial commissions
report. This is, within a few cents,
double the wages paid in 1914 when
the war was getting under way In
Europe.
An eight-hour day, 48-hour week,
one day of rest in seven, a minimum
wage, elimination of night work IN
certain industries and uniform child
labor law-they are the planks in the
legislative program of the National
Consumers league.
Labor placements by the Farm Labor
bureau at Kansas City were ~ per cent
greater between November 10 and De-
cember Is this year than in the same
period in 1921, the Department OF La
Dor announced. The report was re-
garded as exceptionally good, since de-
mand for farm labor Is ordinarily at
it's lowest In November, December and
January.
Child labor is more common in rural
than in urban America and some OF the
conditions in the fields are quite as
bad as those in the factories. Of the
more than a million children between
the ages Of ten and fifteen now working
in gainful pursuits, $4,000, or some
81 per cent, are in agriculture, forestry
and animal husbandry. SO the l92O
census figures show.
The Laurel cotton mill, Laurel, Md,
owned by the Mount Vernon-Wood-
berry Mills of Baltimore, which has
been idle for several years, has been
purchased by Lapsley & Brother COM
pany Of Baltimore, which will convert
this property Immediately into mod
ern factory building. This firm has
acquired 10000 square feet Of space.
1t is expected that within three months
the plant will be in operation. About
125 workers will be employed.
Eight union trainmen leaders were

Erie Railroad Signs
Wage Agreement

New York-The shop crafts en-
ployes of the Erie railroad have sign
ed new wage agreement with the
road by which the wage rates author
lied by the railroad labor board are
extended, the union is recognized,
and full seniority rights are restor-
ed to all the 10000 men involved, ac-
cording to announcement by John j.
Dowd, chairman of the strike commit
tee here.
Besides these concessions, the men
will receive back pay amounting to
about 100000, which is due to from
5000 to 10000 of the former striking
shopmen who since their return to
work last fall under a temporary
agreement have been receiving less
than the 70 cents an hour set bv the
board as the minimum wage rate.
The shopmen win the eight-hour
day, with time and a half for over
time, but are to receive only straight
pay for half-holidays and Sundays
when it is their turn to work. Double
time is to be paid after 16 hours, and
the road will not penalize overtime
by forcing shopmen to take equiva-
lent time off.
The new agreement runs until Nov.
1, 1923, when it remains in force un-
less terminated by either party on 30
days notice.

PUBLIC WORKS
FOR THE IDLE
Plan Put Forward to Solve the
National Unemployment
Problem.
MATTER EASY TO ARRANGE
Only Necessary to Plan Far Enough In
Advance, Is the Declaration Of
Wesley C. Mitchell, Acl<noWi-
edged Authority.

Wesley G. Mitchell, director Of the
national bureau of economic research,
offered a proposal to solve the ma
tional unemployment situation in times
Of business depression at session OF
the convention of the American Asso-
citation for Labor Legislation.
His recommendation was to plan
public works far enough in advance to
make them effective in times of unem-
ployment.
Mr.. Mitchell is considered one of the
leading authorities in America on Amer
ican unemployment and business cycles.
The recommendation he made at the
convention was In the form OF fore
cast of a report to be made soon by
President Harding's unemployment con-
ference. Mr.. Mitchell is member or
the committee to make the report.
1.-THE investigation disclosed that
there were about 100000 idle men
affected in the depression of l92l,'
reads the report.
1.-The leanest years in our recent
business history have run something
like Is to 25 per cent behind the fattest
years. Part-time employment was
found to be a minor factor.

work now done at the peak of the boom
could be shifted to the depression

Subsidy Would Aid
Luxury and Wealth

Washington-In an attack on the
ship subsidy Senator Sheppard show
ed that under this bill the largest
subsidies would be given to luxuri-
Gus passenger vessels, designed
mainly for the accommodation of the
wealthier classes, the pleasure seek
ers, the tourists, the globetrotters,
the moneyed idlers, the feasters and
revelers of Americas vulgar, dollar
worshipping aristocracy."
at was recently announced" con-
tinued the speaker, "that eastern cap
italists were preparing to construct,
with the enormous financial aid they
would receive under this bill in the
event it became law, two passenger
liners eclipsing in size and speed any
thing the world has yet beheld; liners
1000 feet long and of 10000 gross
tons each; liners that would make the
Majestic and the Leviathan look like
canal boats. 1t has been estimated
that these ships would get about
S4,000,000 a year basic subsidy under
this bill, or twice that amount if the
board should so allow, the board hav-
ing the power to double the basic
grants.
can expert of the shipping board
testified at the hearings that the Le-
viathan would get 100000 year in
basic subsidy from the treasury un-
der this bill, and the subsidy could be
doubled if the board should so desire.
On the other hand, ordinary cargo
vessels, such as make up the bulk of
the present shinping board fleet and
such as carry most of the worlds
commerce, including farm products,
would receive only a few thousand
dollars each per annum."
