Decreased Incomes, Same
Wages Predicted by Babson

Babson Park, Mass, Aug. 25-For
the year 1913 total industrial wages
and salaries, without including in.
comes OF those employed in agri-
cultural enterprises, amounted to
$50, 500,000,000 or this, some $12,-
000,000,000, or approximately 1874
per cent, represented payments for
overtime work. If tho above work
ers had not benefited from overtime
they would have earned only ST.
5O0,O00,000.
Overtime Out
While the War lasts, manufac-
turers cannot complain too much at
the high cost OF labor. AS a matter
of fact. currently high wages, in
Guiding overtime, are a direct oper-
ational cost and in the instance Of
most war contracts the Government
pays the bill However, in the
final analysis, II is really the tax
payer who foots these charges.
When the big war contracts are
a thing OF the past, manufacturers
will not have their present high vol
ume of business, while selling ex-
penses will be much higher. Their
first step however, will be to cut
out overtime. In fact, overtime Is
already on the way out.
Work Hours May DO Raised
During World War industry
was averaging a 5Ghour-week. Dur
ing World War II the normal work
week has been reduced to 40 hours
with overtime paid for anything
in excess OF that. During the last
great boom industry averaged bet
ter than 4S hours a week. Not until
the New Dealers with their ideas
of spreading work" and Indirect
ly raising wages got busy did we
hear anything about 40 hours q
week Hence, beg wage earners
to save money now. Build up saw
ings bank accounts. Hourly wage
rates may hold up; but most OF you
will get much less in your pay en-.
velopes.
Technological progress has made
IL possible to turn out more pro-
duction during a shorter work.
week. New and more efficient ma
chinery can produce more in a
given period; but actually, even
during our critical war days, these
machines have not been permitted
to work on capacity load With
overtime out workers themselves
may insist on a A or 4sthour week
and they may get It. But IL they
do they will be expected to work
and to keep the machinery work
ing Slow-downs will not be toll
Grated after the war.
More or Less Lelsure1
Competition in all lines will be
