Tug-0'-War

By LEWIS MILLIGAN

“The progress of human. soc-
iery consists In the belter and
‘hotter apportoining of wages to
work.” :

That was written by ‘Thomas
@arlyle, the Scottish philosopher,
akout the middie of the nine

, 4eenth century, when wages were
out of all proportion to work,
and poverty was the lot of the
workers of England. There were

yet to tell whether productivity
rises enough to cover increased
wage costs.” .

As I see it, there has been a
constant tug-o'-war going on bet-
ween organized labor and indus-
try, ‘and while labor appears to
have won in this contest by ob-
taining higher and higher wages
and fringe benefits, the general
public has suffered through high-
er prices, which have reduced the
puchasing power of their wages,
salaries, pensions, ete. Industry
cannot guarantee in advance a
continual rise in wages, any more
than it can assure a similar rise
in profits to meet Its maintenance,
depreciation and extension -re-
quirements. Any Increase in pro-
duction costs means higher pric-
es for the products, which in turn
deplete the buying power of the
dollar and cancel out the wage

increases of the workers them-
selves, ~

sociation wish to thank all those

‘Mr, and Mi’, M, P. Larocque ;
Jeft Castlegar to take up resi-

no, labor unions In those days;
but there was a movement on
foot against the exploitation of
labor by employers, which kept
the workers in a state of poverty.
It was not a socialist movement
but rather a religlous one. Its
prime leader was the Earl of
Shaftsbury, a man of deep relig-
fous convictions who entered
Parliament at the age of 25. He
had studied conditions in London
slums and was the first to pro-
pose measures of social reform,
He secured the passage of a Fac-
tory Act, which limited daily
hours of work to ten. 2

There was, therefore, justifi-
cation for Carlyle’s statement,
which went to the root of the pro-
blem of poverty at that time. Low
wages were undoubtedly respon-
sible for the prevalence of pover-
ty and, on the other hand, for the
wealth and luxury of the upper
classes. Carlyle was appealing
for a levelling-up ot the rewdrds
of labor to a fair proportion with
the profits of their employers.
He foresaw that it would :| 2a
slow proéess — “a better anil bet-
ter z of -wages to}
work." Since then, that has been
| brought about partly by the or-
ganization of labor and, latterly,
by collective bargaining, but
mainly through invention and re-
search, which have increased the
pr ity of the average work-
er.

SHHS PTA May Fold Monday;

Mrs. D. Campbell, a member of the local PTA and a director

of the provincial PTA jatis §

said Mrs, Campbell, but attend-
