| President Coltrane.
"Brevard will not be just an,

somewhat different kind of COL

work will be offered so that stu
dents competing the courses will
be readily admitted to advanced
standing in the colleges and uni

"In a genuine sense, however,
Brevard college will minister to

for training and experience but
also for their interest and devo-

The president has already inter-
viewed many prospective teachers

Wages Higher in L. S.

1.-THE above wages were converted
into dollars at present current rates
of exchange. The wages in the United
States of all the above trades have
been informed, run from Sl.20 to
S165 an hour. 1t will, therefore, be
seen that men receiving 40 cents per
hour minimum wage fo- common
labor in industry-and a fair eSti-
mate as to the average wage Of the
mass of skilled workers in industry
is IS cents per hour up to 80 cents
per hour-cannot employ men in the
building trades to erect their homes,
either for rental or purchase, who are
paid wages three and four times their
own earnings.
1T would seem to me that if high
authority in the United States were
to lend its influence to secure a con-
cession from the workmen in the
building trades of 33 1-3 per cent to
so per cent of their wages, when en-
ployed on home construction, where
the cost thereof does not exceed So
900 per home, a national movement
fairly competing in breadth and scope
with similar movements in England
France and Germany could be ini-
tiated."
The importance of the foregoing is
readily understood when it is noted
that in Great Britain 100000 homes
have been built since 1922, and the
program for 1884 calls for 100000,
whereas, in the United States, there
were only about 10000 homes built in
1888. The peak was in 1925, when
100000 homes were built. The decline
since 1925 has been major factor
in bringing stagnation to the heavy
industries, where unemployment is
greatest.
Taxes Deter Building.
America has developed new fnanc-
ing plans which are, in many respects,
superior to the British, especially as
to the cost of interest and brokerage
charges, but it still is fact that high
taxes deter home building. and that
rentals are cheaper nowadays than the
ownership of homes.
Hence, to have building boom in
America, the cost Of government in

nothing at all But it should not be
the lone incentive for organizing
womanhood.
Most women's clubs are suspicious
lest they be exploited, but If they CO.
operated with business projects offered
to them they could be a power behind

WAGERATECHANGE|
White House Hints Plan OF
Annual Earnings May
Be Considered.
A hint from the White House this

A hint from the White House this
week that, in fixing minimum wages
perhaps the hourly or weekly basis
should give way to such annual earn
ings for the lowest paid worker as we'll
meet his minimum needs" is being
taken to mean that the adminiStra-
ton may consider a new approach to
the whole subject of wage rate re-
visions.
Thus, in the building trades, where
the rates are entirely ou. of line with
those of other workers, the answer
usually given is that carpenter or
bricklayer. earning $40 a day or
whereabouts, can only figure on being
at work in certain seasons of the year.
Can there be definite program of
work on yearly basis, so arranged
as to assure yearly earnings? If this
can be done, then construction costs
can be brought down without hurting
the income of the workers in the
building trades.
This problem has long troubled the
present administration. but it never
is politically excellent for any admins
tratlOn TO advocate a reduction in
wage rates. Yet the crux of the whole
housing activity begun by the Federal
Government recently is how Workmen
who earn so cents an hour can buy
repairs or build homes that are con-
structed by workers who receive $l.20
an hour.
Makes European Survey.
Not long ago, one of the most
eminent business men in America, a
man with distinctly liberal viewpoint
and highly respected man in the
community in which he lives, made a
survey of British housing and sub
mitted memorandum to Government
officials here in which he commended
the American effort. In the course of
that memorandum, he said:
There is a basic influence or con-
dition existing in the United States
which makes it difficult to emulate
England and the continental countries
in executing a sound campaign in such
connection.
The wages of skilled labor in the
building trades in England and conti-
mental countries is only slightly higher
than the wages of skilled workers in
industry and commerce. whereas in
the United States the wages of work
men in the building trades is at least
double that of the vast mass of other
American wage earners. On this ac-
count a man whose income is so
cents an hour in the United States
IS not financially able to acquire a
home built by men who receive S1.20
to S165 an hour. To illustrate the
foregoing here present a schedule
showing the wages per hour of men
in a few of the building trades in

Killers of Durable DereIiCt

~ OhtbCU 1905
OSSINING, N. Y, June 3.-Three
members of the Bronx insurance
murder syndicate" had paid with
their lives today for the Staying OF
Durable Mike Malloy, unemployed
derelict who withstood half a dozen
attempted assassinations.
A fourth, granted laSt-minute
replieve on plea of insanity, clung
pitiably to his cell bars as his mates
walked down the corridor to the
- electrocution chamber. The state
exacted the penalty from all three
in sixteen minutes time.
Joseph Murphy, bartender, gained
a two-WeekS stay of execution.
Frank Pasqua, 25, undertaken; Dan
iel Kreishberg, 20, fruit merchant,
and Anthony Marine, %, speakeasy
proprietor, calmly paid in full for
killing the old barf1y alloy-for
$1,780 inSurance-in New York
criminology's most bizarre case, for
the reason that Durable Mike
proved hard to kill.
They elected Malloy their victim
and insured him because he looked
easy to do away with.
They tried to kill him by running
him down with taxicab twice, by
plying him with wood alcohol and
leaving him drenched on a wintry
park bench, by feeding him poi
soned oysters and sardines with the
can ground up in them-all with
out phazing Mike.
Finally they stuffed a. rubber hose
into Malloy's mouth and turned on
the gas. He died.
Marine smiled, and went smiling
to the chair. Pasqua said little.
Kreisberg walked to the chair with
a frown on his face.
