AVERAGE INCREASE
IN WAGES SMALL

While publicity is given large wage
gains in certain instances, the in
creases are very small when spread
over the entire country. This is
shown by a report issued by the Unit
ed States Bureau OF Labor Statistics,
which states that the total amount OF
wages paid in April over March in
creased Ia per cent. In the same
period employment increased one-hali
OF per cent, or an addition OF five
men in every 1000 employed.
These figures are based on reports
from 5,651 representative establish
ments covering 2.139, O5s employees in
April and 2,12S,S16 employees in
March.

Increase Quotas.
Answer-Then We would request
that the quota be increased 70 s per
cent in other countries where men
are willing to emigrate.
Chairman-WilI your association
be responsible for the character and
fitness OF these men 70 make good
American citizens?
Answer-We thought the American
embassy in the different countries
could attend to that and vouch for
tneir fitness.
Chairman-The American embassy
can't be responsible nor examine emf
grants to test their fitness.
Mr. WetseL merchant tailor, New
York City, next appeared.
He also claimed a shortage Of good
journeymen taiIors and asked that
immigration be increased.
He stated his firm employed about
$50.
Chairman-What salaries do you
pay?
Answer-We pay coat makers from
$50 to $3.50 per week.
Chairman-Why the discrepancy
between $50 and $3.50?
Answer-Those paid $50 work by
the week, while those paid $3.50 are
piece workers and employ some help.
Chairman-Do you intend paying
the same wages to those immigrants
as you are now paying those men
mentioned?
Answer-No. We would be able to
secure these men for about $50 per
week and the public would thereby
be benefited by getting cheaper
clothes.
Prefer Married Men.
Chairman-Would you prefer these
men married or single7
Answer-We prefer married men,
as they are more liable to settle in
New York.
ChaiTman-DO you think a married
man could support a wife and small
family on 500 a week?
Answer-They could at first until
they knew better.
Would not that be TAX
ing advantage Of their ignorance7
Answer-Oh, no, we would increase
their pay as they became more expe-
rienced, but We have to depend on i'm
migration to supply US with mechan-
les.

!. The Rechabites' Test wv. 1-5).
In the days of Jehoiaklm, the Lord
charged jeremiah TO bring the Recha-
bites into the house of the Lord and
test them regarding the drinking Of
wine. This he did in a place where
the people might behold them, the aim
being to teach Judah by example.
The father of the Rechabites had
given command that they should not
drink wine. Their filial obedience
put to shame the children of Judah
for their lack of obedience. Jonadab,
the father of the Rechahitcs, was only
n man but the one whose commands
Judah dlsreEarded was the Almighty

tvv. IL. 16). When the people failed
to render obedience to God, he sent
to them the prophets. who pleaded
with them to amend their ways by
turning away from their idols. Mat
thew Henry indicates the points of
contrast somewhat as follows: G)
The Rechabites were obedient to one
who was but man; the Jews dis
obeyed the infinite and eternal God.
(2) Jonadab was dead and could not
know Of their disloyalty or correct
them for 1t. God Is all-knowIng and
lives forever and will punish for dis
obedience. (3) The Rechabites were
never reminded Of their obligations,
but God sent His prophets to speak
to His people. ~ Jonadab left the
charge but no estate to support the
charge, but God gave the people a
goodly land and prospered them in It.
(5) God never assigned His people a
task as hard as Jonadab's. but Gods
| people disobeyed Him while the
| Rechabitcs obeyed their father.
