lated.’ 1he fallacy of this idea will
be seen. If the compensation of
all groups could be raised together.
nobody would be benefited. and on
the other hand if compensation is
raised in a few industries alone, the
efiect will be to curtail employment
in those industries.

The Industrial Balance
The workers in the textile indus-
tries outsido of the Southern States
have taken only one general reduc-
tion from the top wages of the
boom period. of 22% per cent, in
December, 1920. They are now
moving for its recovery. The av-
erage hourly wages 0} all labor in
twenty-three leadin industries
covered by the investi tions of
the National industrial onferenoe
Board were “)8 per cent higher in
September, 1922, than in July. 1914.
On the other hand. the farmers
took an almost perpendicular re-
ac ction averaging about 50 per cent
in the tog level of 1920. from
which they ave recovered about
7 per cent, and the average par-m
chasing power_ of the principal
-farm products in October. 1922,
_was 9only 65 per cent of what! It was
in 1913.
For organized labor to demand!
the re-establishment of the high-
est wages of the boom period while
buying products upon the
present level will be an efiort to '
perpetuate an unfair advantage and' ‘90
deprive the farmer of the moderate 5
,gain he has made 1n the past year.
