Contradicting Davis, But in the fourth sentence of his message he comes into conflict with his secretary of labor. Coolidge say ‘“Wages are at their highest. Em- |ployment was never more plentiful.” | Secretary of labor Davis, however, is | forced to be less optimistic. His re- | port says on Page 53 that “the aver- ;age index of employment for the 12 |months ended June 15, 1927, was 1.3 per cent lower than the correspond- jing average for the 12 months ended | June 1926, Employment in each of | the st six months of 1927 has been at a somewhat lower level than in the corresponding month of 1926; pay-roll totals have also been lower in 1927 than in 1926, except in the month of May, when the level wag the same in 1927 as in 1926.” 4 The president therefore made a false statement in the fourth sentence of his message, but since it was in reference to workers his conscience will not be troubled. The important thing is that “Coolidge prosperity” shows a progressive decline and his own secretary of labor so states. Anti-Strike Legislation.
