PURGING THE RELIEF ROLLS

There are thousands" upon thousands OF people
on the federal relief rolls who have no business
being there.
And that's another reason why we feel that led
eral relief is big mistake and should be done
away with.
Relief is local matter, and should be handled
through local funds If this were DONE care would
be exercised in the expenditure OF every dollar As
matters now stand however, what difference does
it make how much money is being paid out the
government is paying the bill.-State Magazine.

of I'd wears of employment at 81 oay has
gone into that press and its equipment oelore ~
does a stroke of work. Whatever us alter ell
feet YOU can see that the first effect OF the ma
chine is to create employment
Now we nut this press into production; 1t
turns out 2, 100 hubcap shells while hand-wofk-
er is pounding out one. Would Ihere pe "ioi
Jobs if only hand-workers were employed! -ior'
really, it seems that this press, at this proo"e-
ton, must be destroying $3.50 possible JOBS.
Very we'll let us consider making this article
by hand. At first glance, it seems to oHer all
advantage. Equipping man with hand TOOLS at
$24 would seem to be a great SAVING over
$4,000 press. But, to produce as many hupcapS
by hand, and to equip 2, 100 men to do II, woulu
cost $7,742 more than the press. AT once the
cost of producing that shell would be increased
by 17R per cent for tools alone. Then, there
would have to be factory to house those 2'i6o
men, which at Ford standards would cost at
least half a million dollars and about S3s'ooo
year to maintain, not including the cost oil It's
two acres Of land. A press requires sou square
feet of space; the handwOrkers with thelr
benches would need 1l6,64O square feet OF
space.
But, let us say, that for the sake OF employ
ment all this were done-yOu would expect 10
pay these men at least as much as men on the
press paid, wouldn't you?--fOr the hand'
worker works much harder. In an S-hour day.
then, a man could pound out 81 hubcap shells.
For the material used, and the days wage OF
$7.20 now paid on that work, those shells would
cost about $3.50 each. Pretty high for an article
that be made for IL cents! Maybe you think
you would be willing to pay that;-"in the inter-
est of employing those men," you say. Il would
pay that higher cost" But would you? We can
say quite definitely that you would not For II
this principle were followed throughout all the
manufacture of an automobile, you would not
be buying car at all 1t is calculated that the
cost Of making q 1898 Ford car on this basis
would be $l7,S5O. And at such price, not 5O
cars year would be sold. There would not be
work for one of those 2,l60 men you are anxious
about, nor for the $4,000 other men in the Ford
industry alone. Without machinery there would
be no automobile industry. ...:....
WELL" you say, THAT would be bad. Could
not you avoid that by paying for hand-work
lust what it is worth?' Hardly, for under that
arrangement a man on this hubcap shell JOB
would earn about Is cents day-abont what
they pay in China. .- ~. ....
No, it will not work. Three million men are
normally employed in making, selling and serV-
icing cars, because with machinery, cars can be
produced at prices people can pay. And that, IN
turn, creates jobs, at wages that enable people
to buy. The cars, the jobs, the wages would not
be there were it not for machinery. From its
very inception, down to the last turn of its
wheels, industrial machinery creates employ
ment.

But no part of the world is as

comments follow:
"Smartly raped were the
knuckles Of your Friendly Bank

Longfellow's worthy, poetic lines
to Kipling.
"None other than our good
friend, VIM. B. (BilD Hodges call

We're not attained by sudden
flight,
But they, while their companions
slept,
Were toiling upward in the
night. "
