THE HUMBUG OF HIGH WAGES

payrolls should have been increased
BY about that amount or to $1O6.50
for each 500 in 1920 to enable the
workers as a whole to hold their own.
Taking full account of a 16 per
cent drop in the cost of living in
dustry should be disbursing $3.50 for
every 800 paid in wages in 1920 to
enable the working class as a whole
to maintain it's 1920 living standards.
The table shows only $50 actually
paid for each 800 paid in 1920. The
purchasing power of the average menu
Der Of the wage-earning class is thus
considerably lower than 1t was in 1920
in spite of increased percapita wages.
Labor saving machinery and mass
production methods are affording the
employing class a means Of cutting
wages without touching percapita
earnings. The average wage Garner
will simply find himself unemployed
to a greater extent than formerly.
Until labor blames the present func-
ton Of all productive machinery to
make profits rather than tighten the
average burden, the bosss little Joke
about the highest wages in history will
continue to breed confusion.

New York Capitalists
Want Canadian Road
That Begins to Pay

VANCOUVER, B. C.-The Pacific
Great Eastern railway, built to afford
politicians and contractors wholesale
graft, has long been white elephant
to the people of British Columbia.
Millions Of dollars have been sunk in
this enterprise. Both liberal and con-
sentative parties participated in the
graft.
In recent years, however. in opening
up the north country and the Cariboo
district the Pacific Great Eastern rail-
way promises some returns, and
straightway the government makes
overtures to sell the railway. A group
OF New York capitalists is seeking to
purchase 1t for song plus vast areas
Of agricultural land to be given them
by the government. Two big English
syndicates are also considering buy
ing the railway.

RY LELAND oLps.

Federated Press Industrial Editor)
For every 500 the working class in
New York state could spend in 1920
it can spend only $50 today. That's
what the September payroll data gath
cred from manufacturing establish.
ments by the state industrial commits
sioner show. It means that all the
employers propaganda about the high
est real wages in history is bunk so
far as the general run of workers
families is concerned.
Average weekly pay, the commiss-
toner's report shows, amounted to
S2S.05 in September This is 10c a
week under the 1920 average when
the cost Of living was about 10 per
cent higher than today. From this
employers argue that wages now buy
nearly IS per cent more than in 1920.
But the actual spending power of
the workers is measured by total wage
payments, not by average weekly earn
ings And glance at the figures win
show that while average earnings have
remained high, factory payrolls have
been heavily reduced. The figures
show how much wage earners employ
ed in the manufacturing establish
ments of New York state had to spend
for each 800 available to them in
1920.

Negroes Barred from
New York Hospitals
Because of Color
tsy The Federated Prsss)

NEW YORK, Nov. 24.-That New
York, which many persons believed
gave equal rights to Negroes, is dis
eliminating against the Negro race is
shown by the National Association for
the Advancement Of Colored People
which Is conducting a campaign
against the practice New York hos
pitfalls have of segregating and even
barring Negro patients. The associa-
ton has secured the cooperation Of
the National Medical Association, a
Negro organization in an investigation
Of discrimination against patients with
dark skins. The North Harlem Med
ical Association, a Negro organiza-
ton of doctors in New York's great
Negro district, has been invited by
the association to join the campaign
and test cases In the courts are ex-
pected If the discrimination con.
tinues.
AT the same time the association
is taking up the case Of Miss Lydia
Caroline, Negro girl OF 20, who was
barred from a physical training class
by the Young Women's Christian AS
ISOLATION at its Central School of Hyg
iene and Physical Culture. The Y
w. c. A., on the defensive, admits
the discrimination and says it is TAX
ing the case under advisement.
