WAGE ORDER BOOSTS
BEAUTICIANS' PAY IN
NEW YORK CITY

New York City ULNS).-The 1913
annual analysis of sworn payrolls in
the beauty service industry of the state
just completed by the State Labor De
Dartment, shows that the industry now
paws it's women employees an average
of S7.79 week more than it did in
1936-or S2126 instead of S13.47.
The increase is attributed to the
minimum wage order of March. 1899
which established Il minimum wage of
S16.5O for a 45-hour week, and also to
increased overtime at time and half,
and to the general wartime rise in
wages. The increase in the 1913 aver
AGE over 1912 is $3.50 over 1899, S3.52.
Most women are being paid more
than the minimum weekly rate-S4.3
per cent of them in 1913 as against
1913 per cent in 1912. \ similar trend
is shown on an hourly basis, 80 per
cent being paid more than 90 cents an
hour in 1913 as against 24.9 per cent
in 1912.
Although median hours remain at
10 week, which have been the aver
age hours since 1899, there is an in
crease in the proportion of women
working more than - hours Il week,
thus accounting for more overtime pay.

Labor To Fight Postwdr
Wage Cuts, Pres. Green
Tells Senate Committee
URGES SHORTER HOUR STANDARDS

Washington, D. c. = In two official pronouncemens the
American Federation of Labor notice nation that
will not stand for wage cuts when the war ends.
President William Green before the Truman Com
mtee of the United States Senate declared that the
safety of America requires shortening of working hours in the
postwar period without reducing of total earnings.
George Meany speaking
Forum of the Air warned that lowering of income and
curtaiment of purchasing would

pOSCWdl uepIeSSlOH.
Thus, Il new and major postwar
issue was projected into the forefront
of postwar discussion an issue on
which the American Federation of La
Dor is determined to carry on an ag-
gressive campaign in behalf of the
nations workers.
In his testimony before the Truman
Committee, Mr.. Green pointed out that
by voluntarily offering their nO-strke
pledge to the Government for the dura-
ton of the war and by acceding to the
economic stabilization program, Ameri-
can workers have sacrificed their op-
poMunities for economic advancement
during wartime. He added:
workers have relied upon working
long hours to get income to meet in
creased living costs. While workers are
= denied the right to increase wage rates
Ito accord with increased productivity
and employers capacity to pay, we
shall endeavor to restore equity by in
sisting that peace-time hours standards
shall be established without reductions
in earnings.
High wage rates do not necessarily
mean high labor costs. According to
the Census of Manufacturers for 1889,
labor costs in the various industries
ranged from per cent to 2S per cent.
The average relationship in all manu-
featuring was that labor costs made up
only Is per cent of the total value of
the products manufactured. If wages
had been raised per cent, the in
creased value of the product would
have been only eight-tenths of one per
pent, sum which in many cases
would have been readily absorbed in
profit margin without increase in price
of goods. But the number of dollars
going to the workers and offering Il
market for goods produced would have
been about half billion. Assuming
adequate controls against initiation, il
is the axiom that the greater the ma
tional income is the greater the mar
ket''
Mr. Green sternly rejected theory
advanced by members of the Truman
Committee that it would be economi
Cdly duNlSuDle IOI ldDOE W IeuuCt
wage rates and thereby facilitate in
creased production at lower costs to
consumers. If industry attempts tC
Xadopt such aplan, he said, 1T will be
Vcutting off it's own nose He eX-
planned:
in manufacturing, when the work
week is reduced from 4S hours to 4t
hours, and when the number of wal
workers is reduced by what will I'm
doubtedly be approximately about one
third from the war peak, these factors
would reduce the annual take-hOme
pay to about one-half of the workers
income at the time of the war peak if
no cOunter-actiOn is taken. Thus, il
the annual payroll, which is really the
market for consumer goods is around
$4,000 100000 at war peak, that mar
ket will be reduced to around $4,000,
100000 per annum after the war
Would not industry prefer to have Il
market of $40,OOO,OOO, to compete
for rather than one-half that size!
