NEW YORK. September 24.-There
has been one school of thought in Wal
Street that for six months has held to
the opinion that turn in the domestic
business and market situations would
coincide with the announcement OF 9
reduction in the wages OF iron and
steel workers. In this they have gone
somewhat on precendent, for this hap
pened in 1921.
The inevitability of the action of the
United States Steel directors in pairing
down the wages of their employees by
10 per cent has been supported all along
by the preliminary policy of first cutting
the pay of officers and office workers
and then reducing the dividend ON the
common stock of the corporation from
81 to 81 q share.
Whether or not the experience OF
10 years ago VIII be duplicated, and
out of q rascal manifestation OF
economic change there can develop
greater stability in American industry
is something for the future to decide
Wall Street, however, whose judgment
on events of this sort is frequently
keener than that of the rest of the
country, today manifested more hope
full spirit and was willing to pay
several dollars a share more for United
States Steel Corporation common stock
over Tuesdays price.
Definite Change Seen.
The wage reduction which is expected
to become general in the iron and steel
industry may properly be put alongside
Mondays decision of the British gov
eminent to suspend gold payments after
the hopeless task of trying to maintain
sterling at parity. Primarily, these two
events appear to be destructive, rather
than constructive in character, and
likely to produce distress rather than
to make for spirit Of hopefulness. On
the other hand, they definitely mark a
turn from the demoralizing laissez faire
policy held by governments and corpora
tons for the past year to one Of action
based on conditions as they are and
not as they ought to be.
1t has not escaped the attention OF
Wall Street that j. P. Morgan in Lon
don on Monday publicly characterized
the gold suspension policy of the Brit
ish government as "a hopeful and not
a discouraging event" and that within
two days the largest industrial corpo-
rations with which the Morgan inter-
ests are entiled-namely, the United
States Steel and General Motors--have
announced a readjustment in wages
and in salaries which they believe to
be justified by the falling revenues of
these companies and the decrease that

WALL STREET SEES BUSINESS
AID m STEEL WAGE REDUCTION

has occurred in the past two years in
the cost OF living.
Obviously the wage cut by two of the
largest employers of labor in the United
States viii lead to changes in the
wage scale in other directions, 1t was
reported today that a 10 per cent cut
was to be made among the labor unions
in the moving picture industry. which
has been among those suffering q heavy
loss in earnings because of the cepres-
sion. The biggest of the wage problems
ahead. however. has to do with the
railroads. This may become an active
subject for negotiation later in the
year. The point of view of Wall Street
is that the amount Of freight rate in
crease that may be permitted by the
Interstate Commerce Commission will
be so small and its effect on net earn
ings so meager that the position Of the
carriers cannot be permanently i'm
proved until wages of union labor are
reduced.
Many of the carriers, including the
Pennsylvania and the New York Gen.
trail in the East. have already reduced
the salaries of officers materially.
Others have been unwilling to ask for
sacrifices on the part of the men who
assume greatest responsibilities in the
executive and operating departments.
ODe prominent TdlTOdO pTeSluenI Is
known to have reduced his own salary
20 per cent last Winter. but he stands
out strongly against any change in the
pay of his associates and does not be-
lieve that the moderate average annual
earnings of the engineers. firemen,
trainmen.s shopmen and maintenance
of way laborers should be disturbed.
Opposing Viewpoints.
So there, are two strongly opposing
points Of view in the railroad world re-
garding the wisdom of changing rail-
road wages, with those who are most
in favor of cuts influenced by Wall
Street opinion. On the other hand,
there is coming to be greater uniformity
of opinion in industrial quarters. and
particularly in the field of building
construction, that the time has arrived
when, in order to make progress and to
start things moving. concessions must
be made by union labor similar to
those that have already been assumed
by the large body known as the white
collar" class and by hundreds of thou
sands of people whose incomes have
been materially shaken down in tht
wholesale reduction and omission o.
dividends, the suspension of rent pay
ments and the temporary defaults on
real estate mortgages. This change of
policy carries with 1t a significance
