The proposed reductions in wages,
following the refusal of the govern
ment to extend the subsidy beyond
April 80, would mean in the most pros
porous district wages only 1870 above
1914 while in Scotland and Northum-
berland wages would be 1879 and $50

stands 76e5 above 1914.

To carry out such reductions, says
the labor research department, the

blow was aimed at the principle of ma
