WAGES OR TIPS

ing against the tipping system.

and chagrinned every time he accepts a tip-which
is every time he is offered But makes him
realize that he has depend those tips for his
living. because he doesn't get enough pay to live
His wages little over 81 day. BY the time
he pays his necessary expenses for shoe polish food
the trip etc, he has little dollar day left.
He can't get along that even if he has family
to support. SO he falls back on his tips. They
said to average S58 a month. Thus he makes both
ends meet, but not too well.
The worker is worthy Of his hire 1t looks as if
the employers n this case ought be able to afford
passing about half the expense to the travelling
public. Pullman patrons feel that they pay quite
enough in fixed charges for the accommodations
they get.
The passengers might tip the porters anyway;
very likely most of them would But they don't like
to feel morally obliged to do it because the company
passes the buck to them.
