Then the hundreds of employees who

ty. Those of trades who are mem
bers of labor organizations receive the
same wage as called for in Champaign
and Urbana, but the unorganized are
paid in some instances less than that
of common labor in the Twin Cities.
Champaign and Urbana is not
known as an industrial center--but
educational. With 5000, 0,students and
1900 instructors and professors add
ed to the population of 10000 of the
Twin Cities naturally make the cost
of living here somewhat higher than
in u faetefy %elssifisiustxials eetieer,
therefore not only the members of the
faculty, but the employees as well,
should receive substantial increase
in pay.
The staff and employees realize the
people of the state wanted economy
of the present legislature and a re-
duction in expenses, and sacrificed
their own welfare in the interests OF
the thousands who attend the Univef-

facilities. The state receives full
value with compound interest in sery-
ice for every dollar spent in wages
at the University.
Don't let Illinois remain in third

Because OF that fact, | am going te
avail myself of the opportunity Of
fefed by the editor Of the Twin City
Review, TO recall to the minds Of the
readers some of the things for which
the University Is famous and some Of
the manners In which the institution
jasiiies It's existence and expansion.
Doubtless organized labor often
asks. "What does the University do
for us?" And that is fair question.
Perhaps the best answer is, that any
thing and everything the University
does which benefits society as whole,
benefits every union man as well rs
his family. A geat deal Of this bene.
fit Is indirect, to be true, but some IL
more direct than other.
Everything the University under
takes has as the purpose back Of il
the benefit TO society,---the hope and
belief that the solving Of this or that
problem will make the work we do
and the life we live safer, more Dleas-
ant, and more profitable. To-day the
University Is doing things for society
through the farmer, tomorrow
through industry. The experiments
carried on are planned to help every
body. and not the particular group
through which IL is necessary that the
benefit be transmitted. We might
cite waht some people would eonsid.

Of his wealth or lack Of wealth, can

The strike of Illinois Central shop
men. which began July l last year,
is still on. While a majority of the
strikers have returned to work, those
who have kept the faith are still as
loyal as they were when the strike
was called. o.,
It is said that the International
officers of the Federated Shop Crafts
will shortly call for a referendum
vote for the purpose Of determining
whether the strike should be calied
off as far as the Illinois Central rail-
road is concerned. Ii is the opinion
of local strikers the proposition VIII

main away from their former work

In their desire to secure appropria-
tions for a building program for the
next biennial that will partly relieve
the congested conditions at the Uni
yersity of Illinois and accommodate
tbe increasing number of students
each year. the trustees did not ask
the legislature for appropriation for
any general increase in salaries and
wages. This self-sacrifice on the part
Of faculty and employees is worth the
unsolicited reward on part OF the
legislature and the governor.
OF the midwest states Illinois, the
richest, is third in the comparative
wages and salaries paid the employees
and the educational staff of its state
Michigan being first and
Wisconsin second.
The last legislature appropriated
money for a general increase In sal
aries which gave grand average OF
nearly l2e or from $40 to $40 per
month for me greater portion of the
faculty This increase was not as
great as the increase per month IN
rent during that period. The instruc-
tor who received S1,S00 previous to
that time has been receiving $2,00O
since or less than the average railroad
man.
An instructor not only must have
an education and an expert in his
line but must be in presentable ap-
peafance at his class and home. I'm
like those of us whose occupation Is
manual labor and leave our "whisk-
ers' for a weeks growth before
shaving, wear pants or overalls that
are covered with patches and blue
shirt with its collar worn and in
shfeds, he must keep clean shaven,
wear clean shirts and collars and a
suit that at least keeps its creases.
His shoes cannot be of the heavy
inch thick soles and covered with
mud, but of the "dressy" type and
always with a shine. At home he
must provide for his wife and family
so that they too are presentable as
well as his home to the scores of
students and others who are forever
callers and visitors for this, that and
the other. He must entertain too and
there are thousand and one other
tthngs where it means expense to him
tnat the ordinary wage Garner could
SaVe-yet his salary is not much
mlgher. Many an instructor has pur-
chased extra reference books to ac-
eommodate his own classes and spent
considerable money and time of his
