Average General Secretary F. Chandler of the Amalgamated Society of Carpenters and Joiners has submitted the thirty-seventh annual report to the various branches of the society throughout the world. The past year, he states, has been one of finan- cial prosperity, which will be revelwed with satisfaction by the entire member- ship. The secretary states that trade has been exceptionally good in the house and ship- building industries, “and were it not for the fact that a serious depression has been ex- perienced in the United States, it might with truth be stated that all of our mem- bers have been well employed, many of them enjoying today a better remunera- tion for their labor tgan ever before ob- tained.” It is reported that seventeen new branch- es were organized during the year, and an increased membership of 4,476, making a grand total of 5,000 in good standing” at the end of the year. Receipts Cash Bal: The receipts from those in employment during the year amounted to $633,000 in rcund numbers, which, after disbursements, leaves a cash balance of $530,000, a gain of $132,000, the largest amount accumulated during any year in the history of the soci- ety and more than the entire savings of the six years immediately preceding 196. In unemployed benefits the sum of $51,000 was expended, which was the lowest amount required for that purpose since 1890. The amount paid for benefits, ex- clusive of that paid the unemployed, ag- gregated $240,000. The value of the extire assets of the or- ganizaion is Stated at $564,510, or $11.60 per member. In the tabulated statements submitted with the report is much data not only of interest to members of the craft, but to those who are interested in trade condi- tions as students of industrial economics. Hours of Labor. Reports from 427 branches in England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales show that nine and a half hours was the average limit of a day’s work, with a weekly wage rate ranging from $10.50 to $5.15. The high- er rate is paid only in the shipbuilding in- dustry, while the wages of those employed as house carpenters average $8 per week. Reports from thirty-two localities in the {United States show the average day's work to be eight and a half hours, with a daily rate of wages ranging from $1.80, paid in Detroit for a nine-hour day, to $3.50 paid in New York for a day of eight hours. The carpenters employed in shipbuilding at San Francisco work ten hours per gap. at a wage of $3.50 or 35 cents per hour, while those employed as house carpenters work eight hours per day at a wage of $3) or 37% cents per hour. Acrons the Border. Over the border. in Canada, the average day's work is reported to be nine hours, with wages ranging from $3 per day to 31.80. In New Zealand the average work day is reported as being seven and a half hours, with an average wage rate of $13 per week, the highest being $15 and the lowest $12. Throughout Australia the eight-hour day is general, with an average wage rate of #12, ranging from $10.50, which is only paid in one locality, to $22.50 paid in Coolgardte. In South Africa eight hours constitute a day’s work, with an average wage rate of $3.50 per day, the highest rate, $5 per day, being paid in Pretoria, which is largely in excess of wages paid the craft anywhere on the globe. Advice to Membership. The report closes with the advice to the membership not to permit their attention to be diverted from the purposes of the sceiety or to allow divisions in the ranks by the introduction of subjects not con- templated when the society was organized, and which he states is “a scheme of asso- ciatioa which is destined to become a pow- er in the uplifting of the workers, and which has revolutionized the whole rela- tions between employers and employes.” Se AE A SENATE ORGANIZED. New Factor in Work of Young Men’s Christian Association. Some time ago the idea of a Young Men’s Christian Association senate, modeled after the United States Senate, was conceived. Plans were discussed and the organization perfected, and at present the associatior. possesses a full-fledged senate, which prom- ises to expedite business in such a manner as will make it a formidable rival of the national body. Each meeting seems to add to the interest and to attract new members. The senate meets every Monday evening, and its object is the study of parliamen- tary law and procedure, with thé discus- sion of topics of general inter ach subject for debate is brought body in the form of a bill, which is re- ferred to the proper committe, in the same manner as in the United States Senate. After report from the committee, a gen- eral discussion follows, and the measure is voted upon. Before it can become a law, if passed, it must be referred to the gen- eral secretary of the association, Mr, W. N. Mulier, who is honorary president of the senate, ard is vested with the veto power. Any member of the Y. M. C. A. is eligi- ble to become a senator, and some have already jcined the association with that object in view, while there is promise of a number of others doing likewise. At pres- ent there are about thirty-four members on the rolls. Visitors are welcome. At the last meeting the election of offi- cers took place and resulted as follows: President, George H. Davis; president pro tem., Ed. A. Beekman; secretary, George Brist; clerk, Maurice Evans; sergeant-at- arms, Charles Snell. The following committees have been ap-- pointed: Committee on rules—G. H. Davis, chair- man; James E. West, Chas. Snell, Kd. Beekman, J. W. Crawford, L. M. Tillman and M. P. Evans. Committee on elections—H. Parker,chair- man; L. Wintermute, C. Repp, W. Orton, W. O.
