Increases in wages during 1920 have amounted to nearly £5,000,000 and affected 7,647,000 workers. A labor correspondent of the Liver- pool Post says, however, that “it is probably a modest estimate to say that the whole of these wage increases have been swept away by unemploy- ment and underemployment. For example, the textile workers to the number of 1,053,000 received, in the earlier months of the year, advances n wages totaling £580,900 a week The greater number of mills are now running only three days a weck and it is well within the mark to put the loss from underemployment at £1,000,- {000 a week. “In the enginec®'ng and shipbuild- ' Ing industries 1,202,000 workers re- ceived advances to the amount of | £429,600 a week but here again the wage advance has been more than lost by unemployment and underem- ployment. Dock workers have had the same sorry experience, and the | lesson which it carries is that in com- petitive trades the wage-earning power can only be maintained on an output of corresponding value.” During the year 553,700 workers have obtained an aggregate reduction of 2,071,200 hours a week. Although there have been more industrial disputes than in .1919, the number of working days lost by strikes shows a diminution. There were 1,663 disputes during the year 1920, involving 1,952,000 workers and 26,567,000 days were lost, the lati=e being swelled' by the coal strike in October and November. JAZZ 1S UNPOPULAR English Authority on Dancing De- cides That American Snap is. Not ‘Wanted There. London, Feb. 4.—The ‘Jazz” is dead in London, says P. J. S. Rich- | ardson one of the foremost English authorities on dancing He declares that no ‘new’ dances will be popu- larized this year, but the fox trot, one-step and tango, which haye held international interest for t&o or three seasons, will pe standarized. / “Previously those. taught the same ' dances by different teachers found themselves hopelessly at sea when they tried to dance together,”” he said. “Through standardization, on which the majority of dancing in- structors in London have now agreed, a eommon framework in the steps will be insured without eliminating all chance of introducing individual variations. Freakish and eccentric light gymnastic’ such as exaggerated forms of ‘jazz’ are rapidly passing out.” Challenge Milk 18c can.
