Wages Still High. reduction of 1214 per cent. is very small in view of that packing house wages three times as much today before the war, said J. Ogden Armour, president of Armour plants and “The vages the fact average as they did & Company, in discussing the de- crease. The main object in revising the hours is to assure work in return for the wages which are paid thereby obviating the penalty incurred through the payment of large sums for which no work is performed. Can Earn More Now. “Despite the lower rate employes ean probably earn as much or more than under existing conditions. The forty-hour minimum wage with its basic 8-hour day has demonstrated positively during the two years that it has been in effect that it results in decreased weekly wage earnings for the employes. The adjustment should enable all plant employes to average 48 hours’ wages per week and their earnings will compare favorably with the earnings of similar workmen in other industries."” Values Drop Down. “The vfdues of our raw materials and of ouo meat and by-products have suffered the most severe decline ever experienced,” said the announcement by Swift & Company. “Our expenses of doing business are still at the war level. They are almost three times as high as in 1914. Our profits have fallen continuously since 1917. Un- less we make further cuts in expense we cannot expect to get emough out of meat and by-products to pay for livestock and have enough left over to cover expenses. We regret that we are therefore- forced to make a re- duction in the rates of pay."” The orders for the reduction in wages follows the cancellation by the packers on February 26 of the war- time arbitration agreements for set- tlement of all disputes with their em- ploye=. A meeting of packing house em- ‘ployes from all parts of the country will be held in Omaha, Neb.,, Wed- nesday and Thursday to consider the reductions and the abrogation of the arbitration agreements.

New England Railroads’ Timetables Being Made Up Will Reflect Changes in Time. Boston, March S.—Time tables of | New England raiiroads will largely re- flect daylight saving changes in the { late spring and summer if Massachu- regulation _into effect Haven railroad has setts puts the again. The New already announced that it will make its schedules conform to daylight saving and officials of the Boston and Maine and Boston and Albany roads indicated that they also would re-adjust many trains. In the case of the Boston and Maine the situation is complicated by the ac- tion of New Hampshire in deciding to stand by standard time, but without defying the law there, General Passen- ger Agent Grant said the road would try and work out its scheduies for the convenience of the greatest number. For interstate commuters this would mean in some cases that trains would start on the equivalent of daylight sav- ing business-going time in places where standard time obtains, he said. Schedules are still being drawn up and will not be completed according to Mr. Grant until the conditions in M achusetts are decided upon, and local option exercised at several New York state points. The latter consideration affects the Boston and Albany schedules also, but it w said at the general otfices ot that road that their tentative plans were based on the assumption that Massachusetts would continue daylight saving under the schedules of last year and the road would have virtually the same time table system. today - — Ask For e Horlicks The ORIGINAL Malted Milk The “Food - Drink” for All Ages.
