presented even worse conditions.
When the miners went ON, strike
in 1919 the real value of the wages
Of the pick miners were 81 pei cent
less than in 1920 and the wages
of the mine laborers had a purchas-
ing power of only STA as compared
with $2.10 in 1900.
The position OF the railway en-
ployees is as bad or worse than any
Of the other trades presented and
it would take considerable space to
offer any comparative figures fully
covering their condition and for this
reason we are compelled to be brief
in our treatment OF it. In 1900 the
ployees was 1857; and, using this as
a basis of comparison we find that
while the average earnings had in
creased in 1907 to SEAL the purchas-
ing power was only equivalent to
1888 as of a comparison with 1900.
In 1917 the average annual earnings
had increased to $1,000 with an ac-
tual purchasing power of 1920; for
the first six months of 1921 aver
age earnings were $1,79O with a
purchasing power of 1862 while for
the latter period of that year "a
deflation having taken place) the
rates of pay possible an average an
nual earning of $1,575 with a pur-
chasing power of only $500.
The most striking thing about
these figures is not what they can
purchase, although they show a
slight increase, but of the very low
wage paid railroad workers in 1900
less than $2.00 per day for all class
es of labor both skilled and unskill-
cd. These figures can not be used
to prove that they are receiving
what they should today as they were
so much under-paid to start and IL
we take the wage decreases since
that time we are certain they aye
receiving no more than the meager
wage of 1900.

CONVENT ABOUT
READY FOR USE
Large Gathering of Sisters Of
Mercy at South Amboy
House Warming

SOUTH AMBOY, May 11.-Yes-
terday the new convent of st. Mary's
church was the scene of a very novel
affair. approximately one hundred
sisters of mercy, included among
which were a large number Of South
Amboy girls, who entered this order,
gathered at the new building. The
majority, however were nuns, who
had at some time been attached to
the teaching staff of st. Mary's
school. The affair was in the form
of a house warming.
\ banquet was served at noon in
the dining and living rooms of the
convent. DIR. Edward c. Griffen, the
pastor of st. Mary's church, who was
responsible for the affair, made a
lengthy address. His remarks dealt
with the teachers who have for many
years labored in the schools. He
said the convent was the gift OF the
people of South Amboy in apprecia-
ton for that good work.
The sisters were present from
Perth Amboy. Plainfeld, Keyport,
Camden and many other places
throughout the Trenton diocese.
1t was the first time that the ma
jority of the sisters had viewed the
acclaimed a wonderful piece of work.
The corner stone of the building
will be laid on the afternoon of Dec
Grafton Day. The Rt. Rev. Thomas
]. Walsh, bishop of Trenton, will
preside at the services The con-
vent on this day will be thrown open
