WILMINGTON HERE
(Thursday, July I'D


With Andy Bush going all the way,
the Braves took the first of their two
game-series with Wilmington on
Thursday night, in Is innings, by a
score of 9 to 8 Although Andy
gave up Is hits, he didn't walk sin
gle man and struck out five. Ted
Laguna was his catcher.
Gene Snyder started for the Blue
Rocks but was knocked out in the
sixth frame and was relieved in turn
by Di MARITIME and Manalowski, with
the latter being charged with the
loss.
Seven of the Braves nine runs
came in the first six innings, largely
because of Snyder's wildness-he
walked eight, was charged with two
wild pitches, and his catcher, Casey,
was charged with two passed balls,
all of which figured in the seven
runs.
The Braves got their first run in
the first frame when successive sin
giles by Riddle and Christian scored
Jordan, who had reached first on a
fielder's choice.
Wilmington took a 81 lead in the
top half of the second inning, but
Hagerstown came right back in the
bottom half and went ahead again,
AZ.
In the top half, Bowman was hit
by pitched ball and scored ahead of
Heyman, who hit one over the cen
terfield wall In the bottom half,
Snyder walked Freund, Concannon
and Laguna, the first three men up.
Then, with Bush at bat, Freund scor-
ed on a passed ball, with Concannon
going to third and Laguna to second.
Bush grounded out with both run
ming holding up, but Concannon
scored while Jaderlund was being
thrown out, with Laguna moving to
third, from where he scored the third
run of the inning on a wild pitch
Jordan popped up to end the in
ming.
The Blue Rocks tied it up in the
third, scoring two runs on four
singles, but Hagerstown went ahead
again, 5-4, in the fourth.
With one away, Laguna singled
and moved to second on a passed
ball. Snyder then walked Bush
and Jaderlund to load the bases.
Then, with Jordan at bat, Laguna
scored on another wild pitch. Jor-
dan then grounded out, with Bush
scoring. Riddle struck out to retire
the side.
1t was IA Hagerstown in the sixth.
Snyder walked Laguna and Bush,
after which DiMartino went to the
mound and Jaderlund, the first man
to face him, singled to right scoring
Laguna. DiMartino then retired
the side without further scoring.
1t was 8-6 Hagerstown in the sew
enth.
In the top half, single, two err
rors and long fly gave the Blue
Rocks two unearned runs. In the
bottom half, with one away, Freund
beat out a hit to third and took a
second when the pitcher made a
wild throw. Concannon grounded
out, but Laguna was hit by pitched
ball and Bush walked, filling the

Second Game
In the nine-inning second game
Charlie Miller went all the way and
pitched shutout ball in every inning
but the fifth, when the Senators scor-
ed their lone run - an unearned one
at that. Ted Laguna was his catcher.
Bob Meagher, a Highlander, start
ed for Harrisburg and was charged
with the loss. Although he was
plenty wild Che walked nine men in
the four innings, plus that he pitch
ED he only gave up two runs = and
one of those was unearned. AS a
result, the Braves left II men strand
ed on the bases while he was pitch
ing (they had a total of Is left on
for the entire game).
He was relieved in the fifth by Ed
Lyons, who entered the game with
the bases loaded and none out, and
not only did he put out that fire in
hurry, but he also handcuffed the
Braves the rest of the way, coming
up with eight strike outs.
The Braves scored an unearned
run in the second. Freund, the first
man up, walked and went to second
on passed ball. Concannon then
beat out hit to the pitcher and
when Meagher threw wild to first.
Freund scored on the error. Two
walks and a force out then loaded
the bases with two out, but the rally
ended when Riddle took a third
called strike.
Christian opened the third frame
with single, but was out trying to
steal second. In the fourth, with one
away, Miller and Jaderlund singled,
putting men on first and second, and
Jordan drew walk, filling the bases
again. But Riddle then forced Miller
at the plate and Christian grounded
out to retire the side.

Jackson advocate. [volume] (Jackson, Miss.) 1939-current, 1952-11-29

Of 1851 ne was actually worse off
than he was in 1915. Even though
his money wages increased by al
most $40 between 1915 and the
end of 1851, his buying power
dropped by almost nine per cent.
He also suffered a decrease in
his buying power if you take June,
1850, the beginning of the Korean
war, as the comparison point. From
June, 1850, to December, 1851, the
onsumers' price index rose by Ill
per cent.
But here are the changes in aver
age weekly earnings for some of
the low-wage industries:
Laundrics ... 5.7% increase
Tobacco stemming
and redrying ...4.3% increase
Mems, boys furnish
ings and work
clothing .. ..1.4M increase
General merchandise
stores ....... .0.9H increase
Hotels ........ 1886 increase
Thus, these workers, who were
already extremely low-paid, have
suffered further cuts in their buy
ing power since Korea.
Incidentally, all of the foregoing
discussion of the buying power of
the laundry workers wage is based
IN changes in prices as shown by
the consumer price index of the
Department of Labor. This index
is fairly accurate in measuring the
average increase in prices of the
goods and services bought by all
workers. However, it underesti-
mates the rise of prices for the
things bought by low-income fami-
lies. This is because law-income
families must spend such a large
proportion of their meager incomes
for food, and food prices have gone
up much faster than other prices.
Thus, the average laundry work
er earns a good bit less than $40
week in terms of 1889 dollars, and
what is true for the laundry work
>er is true also for the hotel work
er and the employees in seamless
hosiery firms, in tobacco stemming
and redrying, and the other low
paid industries.
Even this is not the whole story.
Few people realize what a large
proportion OF the earnings Of low
income families goes into taxes. As
A. F. of l.. spokesman have main
Jackson advocate. [volume] (Jackson, Miss.) 1939-current, 1952-11-29

Many of these workers are in
service and trade industries. For
example, the average laundry
worker in December, 1851, received
only $3.50 in his weekly pay en-
velope. Employees in general mer-
chandise stores did even worse !;
their weekly wage was only $63.92.
Even this was a little better than
the earnings of hotel workers, who
averaged only $36.76.
While many workers in the SER
vice and trade industries are no
toriously underpaid, quite num-
Der of manufacturing industries
also belong on the same ill-starred
list. Here are some examples of
average weekly earnings in low
wage manufacturing industries in
December, 1851:
Tobacco stemming and
redrying ............$ $3.50
Seamless hosiery ....... 1886
Work shirts ........... 32.15
Household apparel ..... 1914
Curtains and draperies go. 1911
There is one thing always to
keep in mind about averages-50
per cent are below the average
Thus, with an average weekly wage
of $39.39 in laundries, half of all
the workers in the industry re-
ceive less than this amount.
The current low level Of wages
in these industries is only half Of
the story. 1t is also significant
that the tremendous rise in prices
since before World War ii has
eaten up most of the increase in
wages which low-wage workers
have obtained since then.
Let us take another look at the
earnings. of the average laundry
worker. The $3.50 weekly which
he received in December could only
buy as much as $20.18 could buy in
1899. Since in 1899 his weekly pay
averaged $17.69, in December, 1851,
he was getting only about $3.50 a
week more in 1889 dollars than he
was in 1899.

therefore excluded from coverage
under the Fair Labor Standards
Act. Most states either have no
minimum wage legislation or it is
restricted to women. Where they
have minimum wage legislation,
the minimum is, in most cases,
lower than that provided for in the
Fair Labor Standards Act. 1t is,
therefore, very important that
minimum wage laws in the states
be extended to men and that the
level of minimum wages set by
state legislation be raised to at
least that provided for by the Fair
Labor Standards Act. u
There is also a very basic and
important role for union organiza-
ton in this field. The success
which many unions have had in
raising the level Of living for low
wage workers indicates very clearly
that many workers are low-paid
primarily because they lack suffi-
cient bargaining power and not be-
cause of any individual failings OF
even because Of low productivity OF
their industries.
The fact is that, by and large
the lowest wages are paid in the
unorganized industries. The only
way that low-wage workers car
obtain sufficient strength to bar.
gain ON an equal level with THEN
employers is by organizing into
unions. The tremendous gains
which A. F. of l.. unions in trade
and service industries have made
in recent years are a clear indi.
cation that there is no reason why
wages in these additionally low.
wage industries cannot be brought
up to a much higher level.
Through a proper wage stabili-
zation policy, decent minimum
wage legislation and union organi-
cation, it should be possible to
raise the level of living of millions
of underprivileged families in the
United States.

PROSPERITY
FOR WHOM?
By BERT SEIDMAN

Member, A. +, of l.. Research Staff
All the current talk about So
called "high wages" and defense
prosperity" has a very hollow ring
for the hundreds of thousands of
families in this country whose
breadwinners are still forced to
work at extremely low wages.
There is much discussion in
newspapers and magazines of the
tremendous strides which the AM
erican economy has made in the
pastatwenty years, and much of it
is certainly justified. We have
made substantial progress in this
country. Through gains won by
union organization and progressive
social and economic legislation, the
living standard of most workers
has gradually improved.
But the advances which have I'M
doubtedly been made should not
blind us to the fact that there are
still many families in this country
whose incomes are so low that the
American standard of living is for
them but an empty dream.
Some of these people are among
the 100000 unemployed. Others,
unable to work because of old age,
physical or mental handicaps, are
forced to exc out their lives on
meager relief allotments or social
security benefits.
These individuals by no means
represent the total low-income
group in the United States. There
are many able bodied Americans in
full time jobs working at shame
fully inadequate wages. 1t is a
regrettable fact that there are far
too many industries in this country
in which wages are so low that
their employees are unable to main
tam a decent standard of living.
Jackson advocate. [volume] (Jackson, Miss.) 1939-current, 1952-11-29

tanned for many years, the tax
system in this country is by no
means based on the principle of
ability to pay if you take into &C
count all types of taxes and not
just the federal income tax.
Every time the federal govern
ment imposes another excise tax,
every time a state enacts a sales
tax, the burden falls most heavily
on the lowest income families.
The fact is that low-lncome fami-
lies bear a crushing tax burden.
Out of their meager incomes they
are being taxed just as heavily as
families in higher income brackets.
In 1913 families earning less than
$1,000 year paid out 1856 per
cent of their income in taxes. This
was higher than any group ex-
cept those earning $500 and up.
The percentage of income going to
taxes was nearly as high for those
earning $1,000 to $1999. These
families paid 20.3 per cent of
their income intakes. This COM
pares with PIT per cent for the
$4,000 to $4,000 group, and 23.1
per cent for the $4,000 to $7499
group.
While the low-income families
are paying far more than their fair
share of taxes, they are unable to
maintain even a minimum stand

House Labor Committee asked the

number of dollars required for
the average worker in overalls to
live in these cities"
The Bureau came up with its an
sWers in the form of a city work
er's family budget for June, 1947.
Since then the Bureau of National
Affairs, private organization, has
been keeping these figures up-to-
date by a procedure recognized by
the Bureau Of Labor Statistics. The
estimate of this city workers fam
lily budget for family of four in
December, 1851, ranged from $685.
in Kansas City to $4347 in San
Francisco. Translated into weekly
amounts, that would be $73.75 in
Kansas City and $500 in San
Francisco.
This means that the low-wage
workers we have been talking
about earned only about onc-half
of what it costs "the average work
er in overalls to live" Yet the
budget provided for by earnings
of $73.75 in Kansas City or $500
in San Francisco is by no means on
u luxury scale. Here are some of
