FOR DOMESTICS
This Is Wage in Russia—When They Get Ila—Thousands
Receive Only Board and Lodging—Most Fled
to Mosc0w from Famine Regions.
MOSCOW, May 25.—Two and a half
dollars per month is the recognized
s for 'a Russian servant in a pri~
yats family.
But the number who really receive
such pay is \ery small. ' There are
thousands of servants who receive
only board and lodgings. or at least
wry small some in addition .Many are
girls or women who fled to Moscow
from the famine regions last winter.
They do not complain about wages.
because they fear they will be dis-
charged and finally be sent back to
the famine sections.
The professional unions are making
great efforts to educate and organize
the domestic servants. but so far with
very little success. The nominal work
hours of Moscow domestic servants is
eight hours, but most of them work
at least 16 hours a ".a7.
The law does in a way protect do-
mestic workers. The servant is en-
titled to half a day off penweek. Af-
ter she has been in one place five and
a half months. she is entitled to a
two weeks vacation and later two
weeks every year.
Any servant may be discharged with
a two weeks' notice. or immediately.
if,two weeks' wages are paid. The
servant is. however. entitled to stay in
the room which she has been occupy-
ing during the service until she finds
another place. Cases where such dis-
missed servants stay- months with the
new maid are quite frequent. This
regulation is on account of the hous-
ing problem.
Russians formerly had a large num-
ber of servants. because they cost next
to nothing. Today there are only few
families who can afford. to keep a
large number of servants, owing to
costs of food and lodgings. A tax of
thirty roubles. or about sixty-five
cent. have to be paid to the city for
the first servant hired and ten times
that amount for every additional one.
It must he admitted that the ave-
rage domestic servant isn't of a very
high degree of intelligence. The ma-
jority come from the villiages where
they received little or no education.
They have to be told over and over
again. but are faithful and industrious.
The best of them. however. would
drive the average American housewife
crazy in a week—perhaps less.
