High railroad officials described
Taylor as one of the best bridgemen
in the country, although his knowl-

ence.
He leaves two sons and one daugh-
ter.

ECONOMIC RULE
ASSA|LED BY POPE
Recommends Wage That Will
Enable Workers to Keep
Families Happy.
~ the Associated Press.

VATICAN CITY, May 23-The
Catholic Churchs new chart of labor
was given to the world today by Pope
Plus XI, who based it on the premise
of plain, simple justice and of mans
right to earn enough TO keep his fam
lily happy.
Championing this right, the Pope
emphatically condemned economic
dictatorship" degradation Of the state
by monied interests, the present eco
nonic life, which he described as hard
cruel and relentless in CHASTITY meas
ure," and Socialism and Communism.
The Pontif said that two evils rise
from modern industrialism. One is
economic abasament of the workman,
the other is moral degration of both
employers and employees.
His mind shoulders. he set out, at "the
frightful peril to which the morals of
workers andN~the virtue of girls and
Womsn are exposed in modern fac
tories
For tie first evil the Pope recon-
mends:
IA living wage. which enables a
man to keep his family and have por-
ton of his income.
2. Better distribution of wealth.
3. Limiting free competition and still
more economic domination.
4. A partnership arrangement where
by workers share in business profits.
5. Determination Of mutual arrange
ments between capital and labor &C
cording to the laws Of strictest justice
supported by Christian charity.
Return to Gospel Urged.
For the second evil His Holiness ad-
yocated:
/. A franl; and sincere return to the
teaching of the gospel 4" d.
2. Charity which will bring about
union of hearts and minds OF the diff
farent classes.
8. Formation of lay apostolate
among employers and employees.
The Pontiff's 20,000-word encyclical
eXcoriated spectators and corporations
under whose anonymity, he said, works
Of iniustices and frauds take place"
with leaders of business abandon
ing the true path" he added, 1T is
not surprising that in every country
multitudes Of workingmen, too, sank
in the same morass."
The Pope urged solution of the prob
lem Of unemployment through employ
ing surplus income to create employ
ment. IL ~
His conclusions on wages were:
]. Fathers of families should receive
a wage sufficient to meet adequately
ordinary domestic needs and save
enough to acquire a modest fortune.
2. The wage should be increased ac-
cording to increased family burdens
g. 1t is right that the rest of the
family contribute according to their
power, but wrong to abuse the tender
years Of children or the weakness of
woman.
4. Mothers Of families should not be
forced to work outside the home.
s. 1t is unjust to demand wages so
high that the employer cannot pay
them without ruin.
6. A wage scale too low as we'll as
