CENATOR WAGNER looks thoughtful as he
- tries to visualize a future in which his
ideals have become realities
"The resistance to the ideas which I am try
ing to promote is very strong" he remarks
1T comes from those who still have some con-
siderable wealth and position and who fear that
shorter hours for labor, stringent child labor
laws unemployment insurance and od-age PEN
sions may somehow take from them some OF
what they still hug tightly to their breasts.
why can't they see that unless they accept
some such program as this they stand in i'm
mnent danger of losing everything?"
Frances Perkins, industrial commissioner Of
New York and the first woman to be seriously
considered for post in the cabinet, has out
lined a program for unemployment relief very
similar to that so long advocated by the New
York Senator.
Like Senator Wagner, she favors the 30
hour week, the abolishment Of child labor and
the establishment of Nationwide system of
employment bureaus.
These national bureaus, the New Workers
maintain, would furnish us with unemployment
statistics now so badly needed. If we knew
lust who is out of work, what his former en-
ployment has been and why he lost his job, says
Wagner, we could formulate more effective
plans right along for dealing with our labor
problems
\ AISS PERKINS urges that workers should
lVI be trained to be more versatile SO that
they can turn from one form Of employment
to another If necessity arises. She calls this de-
velopment of latent abilities increased voca-
tional training"
Turning from the notions Of Senator Wagner
and Miss Perkins to those of Ethelbert Stewart,
former chief statistician of the Bureau of Labor
Statistics, however, we are presented with a
new viewpoint as to what Is fundamentally

In fact the national average wage IS 40 cents

North Central States, many farm hands appear
contented to have room and board without any

uTHERE is never any industrial reason for

vance Of machinery has augmented money

He hopes that we can emerge from this de-
preston with determination not to let our
selling structure get so top heavy as 1t did in
the past.
Zone Of the worst features Of our 1928-29
boom was the high cost of selling" he explains.

Farmers Taxes Cut

THE farmer gradually is receiving one benefit
! even if it is not a great one Statistics
gathered by the Department of Agriculture in
dicate that the taxes levied against farms are
down 20 per cent since 1929, but even with
that reduction they are up 100 per cent over
the 1918 figure.
To the farmer with little or no cash income,
it is foolish to think of anything in connection
with taxes as benefit but at least those who
can't pay do not owe quite so much.

posed. They called me dangerous radical
They did not appreciate that such law made
better workers and would be Of advantage to
them.
1T is interesting to review our experience
with this law in New York State. Employers
have installed safety appliances right and lett,
industrial accidents have been tremendously re-
duced and of course the better safety record
business man has over period OF years, so lar
as accidents to his workers are concerned, the
lower his premium payments year by year.
uOF course, you understand that the scheme
~ for unemployment insurance also pre-
sumes that the better the record for continuous
employment in a factory the lower the owners
premiums will be.
Another vital part of my program is to keep
wages up, way up, giving labor much greater
share in the profits than heretofore has been
granted This, in itself, without any Soak the
rich taxation, distributes wealth and enables
new business to begin, which, as their wheels
begin to turn, call for new workers to Keep
things going.
"You see we have simply got to face the
fact that we must make life secure, comfortable
and decent for the average or forgotten man IN
this country
why can't we do that? We have the
wealth. the resources and the consumers. We
just need important readjustments in our mar
do it."
As proof of the fact that under our drifting
policies of the past three years we have been
getting nowhere fast, Senator Wagner reviewed
a few statistics.
IN 1929 there were about 100000 bread win
] ners in factories, each drawing pay envelope
from a pay roll of $4,000 900 900 per year.
In 1888, 40 per cent of these factory work
ers, or about 100000, have no jobs The go
per cent still working were being paid from
an annual pay roll of only about four and one
half billion dollars.
This means that for every dollar paid out
in 1929 only 40 cents is being distributed to-
day among the 60 per cent still with jobs Even
with the slight improvements noted last Fall,
total factory wages in october, 1852, were still
278 per cent lower than in october, 1881.
From July, 1884, to July, 1892 the families
aided by charity doubled in number. Deposits
in savings banks and postal accounts dropped
three and one-haf billion dollars in one year.
There was net closing of six and one-fourth
million savings accounts between the dates OF
June 80, 1881, and June 80, 1882.

On an almost empty passenger train
left Denver Thanksgiving afternoon
and got into conversation with a
studious Pullman conductor who had
cut himself shaving too hastily To
my surprise, he did not blame this on
Wall Street. Conversation developed
that he was quite an operator in the
cess recently, so he had feeling akin
to affection for the former financial
giants.

walters, etc. Many people believe this
has a good deal to do with unemploy-
ment. and that men should occupy
these positions There is definite re-
sentiment against the married woman
who works, when her husband can sup
port her. Apparently women who have
worked before marriage are bored with
the dullness they find in domestic life
Mr.. SeacreSt in Lincoln, said many
grls who had been employed on the
Lincoln State Journal had told him
they contcmpetei marriage, but that
the final decision was contingent on
whether they could keep their jobs
af erward
He agreed with me that it would help
the employment situation if men or
needy girls could be put into these
places, but he admitted that when a
young woman had been in his employ
some time he usually acceded to her
request to stay. The remark of the
former German Kaiser, Kinder, kuche,
kirche' (children, kitchen, church), does
not seem to apply to American women.
1t is my own belief that if girls with
other means of support we're taken out
OF business and industry and replaced
by men, that would go a long way to-
ward meeting unemployment Many
girls who could marry prefer the inde-
pendence work gives them.
Strikes Indicate Recovery.
Denver hotel has mattresses, with
men as bus boys. The mattresses usu-
ally get smaller tips than the walters
did, but are more pleasant conversa-
