Wage-Earners Better
Off With Wage Cuts
, ISABSON PARK, Mass.—When
tho American Woolon Company re
cently announced that It must wus
pend It* dividend, und the stock
dropped 20 points, Itogor \V. Bub
son announced that It was largely
duo to the action of the company In
the si,ring of lastlyenr In Increasing
wages 12 1-2 per cent, when other
woolen compnnloH felt there should
be wage reductions. He claimed
that the American Woolen Company
then stood out nlone ngnlnHt wage
reductions when other New Eng
land mills felt thrit such reductions
were in the Interests of wage earn
ers, stockholders und the public
generally. “The American Woolen
Company Is now suffering for Its
action at that time," states Mr.
Bnbson. In commenting further on
thin wage situation, lie snys:
“During the war wages increased
very rapidly. In enrly 1929 they
stood at whnt wns then the high
est point In the history of Industry
In the United States. The panic of
1920 resuldted In some wage cut
ting. In 1922, however, wages again
began to Increase, until, *t the pres
ent moment, they stand nt approx
imately 10 per cent above the peak
of 1920 and at the highest point,
both In dollars and In purchasing
power, ever reached. Employees
nro determined to keep them where
they are or to push them even high
er. Moreover, certain employers
have co-operated with the wage
workers In this attempt.
"In the years since 1914 great
changes have come over tho Indus
trial situation. The producing
power of the country has tremend
ously Increased. In every manu
facturing town great new factories
stand as monuments of the zeal of
war time, while other pre-war fac
tories are Idle and the placarded
with ‘For Hale' signs. It will take
years for the consuming power of
the country through domestic and
foreign trade, to catch up with this
deveiopment. This feature Is
against the wage ambition:, of the
employes- On the other hand, dur
ing and Jlnce the war we have en
tered upon a plan to limit and reg
ulate Immigration. Not only do wo
select who shall come, hut the to
tal admissible Is hut a fraction of
what wo admitted before the war.
This change plays Into the hands
of employes. Ho the battle goes on
between those who want wages kept
up, on the one hund, and those who
would reduce them on the other.
“Wage rates are what an employ
er agrees to pay his employes, and
It Is over wage rates that employ
ers and employes fight. Earnings—
what the empolo gets In Ills pay en
velope—are the result of multiply
ing wago rates hy hours worked or
hy product turned out. In a year's
time this product constitutes tho
yearly Income of tho worcr and de
termines whether he can nfford to
buy an automobile. Meal wages ar*
what the employe ran buy with his
earnings. Real wages are much
talked about by academic people,
uplifters and the like, hut they do
not cut much figure In wage con
tests. No industry ran poy real
wages unless It Is making money j
enough ro that It do< s not have
to cut corners. Wuee rates are!
whnt employes arc Interested Ini
first of all. then they ore Interested
In what Is earned under the rates. I
N. Y. COTTON MARKET

of six to fourteen points and soon

points on renewed covering in prepa

atively steady cables. The advance

a few points, however, and the early
market was rather irregular and un

mating the condition 57.1 and the In

placed the condition at 57.2 and tho
indicated yield at 12.8G1.000 bales.
Offerings attracted ny the opening
advance were absorbed on compara
tively slight scicfmcks and the mar
ket firmed up later on the prospect
for unsettled weather in the south
west. Some buylnr orders was said
to bo coming from that section and
this was linked with rumors that
Texas shippers were becoming un
easy as to filling their commitments
owing to delays in picking and the
movement. December advanced to
21* -3 and the market was firm at. net
gnlns of about 33 to 38 points during
the noon hour.
The relative firmness of O ctober
which nold up to 22 83 or 58 points
net higher on the fear of a delay in
the new crop movement helped the
general tone of the enrly nftrnoon
market. December advanced to 22.33
or 48 points net higher. While these
bulges were not fully maintained the
market was steady at net advances of
23 to 30 points at 2 o’clock.

It Is of no great Importance to have
wage rates high ts earnings are low.
“In the past two years a new ten
dency has appeared In Industry.
Our records show that from the
peak of 1923. Thus wage rates have
been reduced In 37 textile mills. In
24 shoo shops, In 14 Iron and steel
mills, In 12 metal trade shops, In 10
lumber plants and so forth. These
do not represent all of the cuts.
These reported cuts are the result
of a sampling system In vogue In
triy office. The total number of
wage cuts Is much In excess of these
figures. While other employers
have been raising wages or allow
ing them to stay whore they nre.
these textile mills, shoe shops and
steel mills have been reducing

“Now that makes earnings go up
or down Is work. What makes
work Is orders. What produces or
ders Is ability to sell, and ability to
sell depends upon price. This Ihst
was never truer than It Is today.
What Is the position of the textile
man who has raised or held up
wages as a seller of good a compared
with tho 37 textile mills- that have
cut wages? What Is the position of
tho shoemaker who has redudeed
wages going to be ns a seller of
shoes In competition with the 24
shoe shops that have cut wages?
“But It another way, that ques
tion means: How rnuph aro the
employes of those textllo mills and
those shoo shops going to earn dur
ing tho next twelve months com
pared with the total earnings dur
ing the same period of the people
who work In the mills and shops
that cut wages? And what
Is going to bo the result when the
sulesman of these high wage plants
report to their boss thaht they can
not get orders because the low
wage shops are selling for less
money than they esn offer goods
for? Every low wage shop In any
Industry Is an argument for lower
wages In tho other shops In that In
dustry, because prices are the de
termining argument In getting or

tent the factory Is to operate. Em
ployes who have these wage rates
are going to be at work, when
others, with higher wages rates are
going to bo working part time or
not at all. It is the factory that
can sell nt a low price that will
get the business during the coming
months, and It Is the employes of
such factories that will have the
largest earnings during the year
even though their wage scales ar#
lower.
“It Is considerations of this sort
that have influenced my thinking
about wages," concluded Mr. liab
son. "I am as sorry us anyone to

last analysis, Interest the wage
