S2,9)O,O()O,0()D WAGE
Loss IN 1881 CITED
Green Estimates Drop Due
to Reductions and Unem-
pIoyment.

The American Federation Of Labor
estimated yesterday that workers had
lost more than $2,500, 000, 900 in wages
during the first five months Of 1891,
due to a combination of wage cuts,
part-time employment and unemploy-
ment.
At the same time, however. President
William Green and Secretary OF Labor
Doak said the losses due to wage cuts
known to have affected more than 1885,
600 workers in factories alone-had not
been caused by large employers of labor.
THE wage standard has been holding
up WELL" Doak said, land believe the
larger firms should be congratulated.
Although nearly 200 establishments,
employing nearly $4,000 workers, cut
wages in April, this is a small percent
age compared to the total number of
firms and workers throughout the
country. The wage sniping appears to
be Of a local nature"
Agreeing that large employers "are in
general maintaining wage rates and in
tend to continue" Green nevertheless
reiterated a recent statement that work.
ers should organize to combat any cut
striking II necessary.
Organized workers everywhere" the
labor chief said, have developed Won
derful morale. They apparently are de-
tCl AlHCO W LColSI Any IcOuCtlOu VI
wages to the fullest extent"
Both Green and Doak attributed the
general uphc lding of wage standards by
the larger firms in part to President
Hoover's conference in December, 1929,
with prominent industrialists and labor
leaders. At that time the former agreed
to hold wages steady and the latter to
refrain from seeking increases.
In monthly survey OF business, the
Labor Federation said yesterday that
small employers are cutting and more
cuts are expected" It added that wage
cuts to enable manufacturers to sell
below cost add one economic crime to
another"
