Salaries and Wages
Show Similar
Fluctuations
White Collar Earnings
Tend to Remain at
Double Luborers'
Special Dispatc to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, June There is q
fairly close correlation between the
trend Of the earnings of the salaried
worker in manufacturing and the
trend of the earnings of the wage
Garner, according to the Alexander
Hamilton Institute This is shown
by statistics covering the recession
phase and recovery phase of the
1929 1887 economic cycle. While the
trend during this period was in IA
vor of the wage Garner, his advan-
tage over the salaried worker was
not great insofar as the individuals
pay was concerned.
From 1929 to 1888, the per capita
annual earnings of the salaried
worker dropped from $2,645 to
81 ,686, decrease of 1868 per cent.
During the same period, the earn
ings of the wage Garner declined
from $l,316 to 1888, a decrease Of
35.2 per cent. In the recovery pc
riod. which ended with 1887, the per
capita salary rose to $2,232, an in
crease of 32.4 per cent over the 1888
level. The wage earners pay rose
in 1887 to $1.l80, an increase of 1873
per cent over the 1888 amount. AS
the figures show, the salaried work
er's pay tends to remain at about
double the wage earners pay.
From the standpoint of employ
ment, wage earners during the 1912
1887 period had q distinct advantage
over salaried workers. From 1929
to 1888, the number of salaried
workers in factories declined 43.l
per cent, while the number of wage
earners in 1887 reached 97l per cent
of the number in 1929.
BY keeping down the number of
salaried workers, manufacturers re-
duced total salaries from 1929 to
1888 by greater amount than they
reduced total wages. Total salaries
during this period declined 638 per
cent, while total wages declined STA
per cent. In the recovery from 1888
to 1887, total salaries reached only
1873 per cent of the 1929 figure, while
total wages rose to 87.l per cent of
the 1929 figure.

Hidden Taxes
Federal Oil Levy
Is 4 Per Cent
BY ALFRED c. FRODEL,
Tax Attorney and Consultant.
Article 9,

In addition to the taxes paid by
the oil wells, refineries, all handlers
of oil including the service stations,
which taxes are included in the
price of oil, there is added the Fed
eral excise tax of per cent per
gallon which is included in the
price you pay for oil for your auto
mobile. This per cent tax repre-
sents about one-sixth of the price
OF OIL Some automobile owners
pay in addition a sales tax.
The tax collected by the Federal
Government on lubricating oil at
4 cents per gallon during the year
1887 was S26,084, ,428 Sc, but because
less oil was used during the year
1898, the Federal Government COL
lection was $23 ,565, ,093.3l. The rea-
son apparently being poor business

Setting precedent for cases of its kind, Judge Fred Trotta of New Haven city court discharged Henry Gartzmann, proprietor of the and J liquor store, 58 South Main street Waterbury, yesterday afternoon af- ter hearing the states evidence based on charges of receiving stolen consider necessary the hearing of goods.
 The court, in its decision, did not any testimony in Gartzmann's be- half. "The only inference I can draw" said Judge Trotta, lis that Gartzmann acted as any reliable, honest business man would do. After paying cash for one case of liquor, he refused to buy any more under the same conditions when asked to do 50 by the truck dy yer. It can be req sonably inferred aat he became sus- picious of the cir Mmstances relative to his first purchase which was an emergency at the time, as he has done business with the Connecticut Importing company before and after the receipt of the particular case of whiskey in question"

DeValera Says Governs ment Not In Sympathy
 With English Bombings

Dublin, July .27.-(UP).-Prime Minister Ramon DeValera, pressed in the senate last night for a state. ment denouncing the Irish Repub' lican army for terrorist acts in Emf land. saidks ;. .a4--.s..,9 l. 4s
 "Unfortunately the government o Fire Qreland) is not in 8 position to remove the causes which led tt the unfortunate occurrences in Eng. land.
 We see two sides. We know the wrong that has beer done by the partition of Ireland"
 DeValera said that there was no excuse for the bombing and that the government had no sympathy with them. He said the bombingS undoubtedly would be setback for Fire and appealed to the people concerned" to take into considera- ton the changed circumstances since the setting up of the Fire govern ment." He pointed out that the gov- ernment had introduced legislation to deal with "a certain organiza- tion" The "certai'' organization is the I. R. A.
 Frank McDermott had asked the government for "an explicit state- ment as to the justifability and ex- pendiency f the bombing activities in Great Britain by Irish citizens" "
 In speaking on his request Me- Dermott said:
 After 1t became established that the bombings were he work of an organization with roots in Ireland the silence of ministers has been more and more difficult to account for" He said many people in Eng land and Ireland believed the gov ernment was secretly in sympathy with the bombers and therefore ministers should make their views clear.
 DeValera then disavowed the bonbings.
 Desmond Fitzgerald, a former de- lcilSc HllllioJcT, Sdlu tlldI oilidli minority was dragging he name of Ireland in the dut and that the gov- ernment of Fire was the only au- thority which ,ould declare war on any country. The bombings, he said, were conspiracy. of treason. He said that the l. R. A. had sent an "expeditionary force from Ireland to England and that therefore the English could sen similar expe- ditionary force to Ireland.

Bridgeport, Conn, July 27-(UP) - The Connecticut commission studying employment of men more than 45 will do its utmost to find a solution for this urgent" problem in the next two years, Chairman Carl Gray told the 2lst annual conven- tion of the American Legion today
 "Our commission intends not to stop al theories" Gray said. We in- tend to get right into the cutting oil and grease and obtain the facts"
 The commission was named by Gov. Baldwin early this year. and its life was extended for another two years,
 Gray said the commission believed a solution of the unemployment problem can be found in due time with the cooperation of labor and management, and the assistance of governr mt.
 Our commission does not desire to make nasty decisions: it wants facts on which to base conclusions
 There is no question in my mind but that Connecticut can lead the way again and on its own evolve a plan which over a period of time will materially reduce unemployment In the state"

 special watch was made at ports on the west coast for Sean Russell, leader of the Irish Republican army, who recently returned from the United States, in the belief that he might seek to come to England to lead terrorist operations.
 One man was killed and 40 per- sons were injured in bombings at Kings Cross and Victoria railroad stations in London yesterday.
 At Liverpool an explosion dam- aged the Mt. Pleasant post office and a wooden bridge was blown up at Maghull in the Liverpool su- burbs.
 Bridge wreckage blocked the Liv- erpool-Leeds canal. It was believed that the post office explosion was caused by a gelignite bomb dropped into letter box. The front of the post office was blown out. Flames shot out of a nearby letter box at the same time. A cafe employe abused them with buckets of wa ter.
 One man was 'Ki1red and IS per sons were injured in an explosion at Kings Cross railroad station here. The man killed was Prof. Donald Campbell, a lecturer at Edinburgh university, only recently married.

Boston, July 27-UP)-Forest fires ragged in various sections of drought-parched New England to- day.
 Woods were tinder-dry as result of the 27-day drought. Though ex- pressing scant hope of sustained rainfall, the Boston weather bur eau believed thunder showers might bring temporary relief today and also help reduce the fire hazard.

Meanwhile, over 300 fire men, volunteers and eco youths fought to control blaze sweeping the Taconic Mountain range in Western Massachusetts, near the New York state line.
