Average earning of girls n the 5 and 10 cent stores in Maryland were found to be the lowest of any of the| States, the average wage in Maryland | being only $8.80. “The low wage figures shown in the report to be typioal of the industry | seem out of harmony,” the bureau R I “with such sound economic policies as { overhead savings due to centralized pur- { chasing and quanity buying, rapid sales | turnover, small profits on articles sold 1 In big volume, buying and selling on the cash bas’s, abolishing delivery cost and | advertising expense.” The increase in Isales noted from 1912 to 1927 is not | paralleled by any striking advance in | wages in the past few years, the report | points out. | Face Wage Standard Problems. Limited-price stores suffer by com- parison with most other industries in the matter of wage standards, the bu- reau said, the claim being supported by statistics available for 15 states. At- ! tention is called to the fact that while {the limited-price department store has | to contend with inexperienced and shift- |ing labor and that some chains endeavor | to mitigate in a small degree the low | wage by some form of bonus or vacation system, nevertheless the standards of payment are very low in comparison with those in many other industries in whatever State or year studied. That the different 5 and 10 cent | chains are not all plated and engraved with the same wage standards is an- other fact brought out by the acid test of the analysis made in study. Of five jchains compared, wage rates in one | tended to be consistently lower and {those in another consistently higher than was the case with the remain.ng ! three chains.

Contrary to the theory advanced at the time the first galley was uncovered, it is now believed that the galleys were used for gatherings by members of the religious “cult of Diana.” The first Nem] galley, which was brought to light last Summer, is now standing on the shores of Lake Nemi, and is being partially reconstructed under the care- ful supervision of Prof. Ugo Antonelli, chief of the Lake Nemi operations.

NEW YORK, February 5—Ogden L.| Mills, Undersecretary of the Treasury, last night expressed complete confidence l in the future of American business in a speech before 60 owners and editors of newspapers, magazines and trade jour- nals. The address was made at a din- ner given in his honor by Gen. Charles H. Sherrill. Bas'ng his optimistic view on records of America’s progress during the last 10 years, he said, the world in general had devoted this period to bringing order out of chaos and laying the foundation of a new structure whose final form cannot yet be visualized. “Thus the Dawes plan was preceded by the Ruhr invasion and the complete prostration of Germany,” he said. “While stable currencies were not secure until, in spite of all previous experience, ihe possibilities of the printing press had once more been fully explored, nev- ertheless statesmanship did make some | notable contributions.” | Among these contributions Mr. Mills listed settlement and funding of inter- governmental debts. He paid a tribute o Raymond Poincare’s work in_helping to restore France to its present financial position. He said the United States’ prosperity was accounted for by a re- sourceful and industrious population, vigorous and able leadership, rich nat- ural resources and sound administration of governmental affairs.
