German Workers are Still Far
Short of Pre-War Living Norm
Bv leland Olds. Federated Press

BY Leland Olds, Federated Press
The extraordinary gains of German
industrial workers since 1924 still
leave them short of their 1913 living
standard according to a U. S. De-
partment of Commerce review of the
German wage situation. What is
more, the present level of wages rests
on an insecure foundation because the
country's import balance is con-
stantly growing. As a large export
balance will eventually be required to
keep German industry prosperous la
Dor costs will have to come down to
meet world competition.
Compared with 1913, the review
shows, wages of unskilled workers
have increased considerably more than
those of skilled workers. In fact Ger
man unskilled workers have today a
slightly better standard of living than
in 1913 while skilled workers are
about 7@6 short of maintaining their
prewar purchasing power. The IN
creases compared with 1913 are for
skilled workers 39.1 90, unskilled $3.50
and cost of living 500.
Explaining the greater gains Of the
unskilled workers the department
saws: "These increases were found to
be absolutely necessary in bringing
the compensation of the unSkllleo
worker to a more or less adequate
basis; with the advent of new eff
cheney in the plants this action wa:
doubtless partly made possible by thi
introduction of modern labor saving
machinery which tended to narrow th'
distinction between the two classes O.
workmen."
The average weekly wages of Ger
man skilled workers advanced from
S6.78 in January 1924 to S11.71 in Ju
ly 1927. The 1913 average for skille
workers was S8.41. For unskille
workers the corresponding figures ar
S5.52 in 1924, S8.74 in 1927 and S5.6
in 1918. Since January 1924 the av
erage for skilled workers has increas
ed 71.9 per cent and for unskille
workers 80.4 per cent. In the sam
period the cost of living has advance
10 per cent.
The review also calls attention
the increase since 1907 in the propol
ton of wage earners to the total pol
ulation of German. The number {
wage earners has increased 80 pC
cent while the population increase
only 10.5 per cent. The departmel
attributes this increase in the propo
ton of workers to factors. 1t say
''In the first place the versatile
treaty reduced the personnel of Il
army and navy to such an extent
to render nearly 100000 men availab
for productive employment. Secon
a considerable number of peOp
whose livelihood was derived sole
from the proceeds of investmen
found their holdings wiped out by t
currency collapse and had to acce
wage earning positions. The thi
factor is the growing proportion
female workers."
At least two of these explanatio
involve a reduction in the parasi
classes. This would probably ha
made possible a real gain in the s.
tus of the German worker if the pee
treaty had not saddled him with n
foreign parasites.
