DAVIS IN FAVOR OF LIBERAL WAGE Says Prosperity Dae to Masses, Not Casses New Orleans, Nov. 33 (P—8peak- ing before the American Federation of Labor in session here, James J. Davis, secretary of labor, today sald that progressive business men had come to sce the economic wisdom of paying a liberal wage. “The old motion that prosperity is produced only by the buying of a wealthy class has been exploded,” he declared. “The man who still thinks in this mistaken view is wrong in the very fundamental of economics. Prosperity s not the product of the classes; it is the product of the masses, Today our well-paid work- ers share in the wealth now being produced and help create prosperity because they have acquired all that multiplicity of wants that once dis- tinguished only the well to do." Becretary Davis asserted that dur- ing his service in the cabinet the number of strikes and lock-outs had steadily decreased. He declared this was due in part to a “rapid rise in industrial {ntelligence.” He sald that while industrial differences still occur, “our interests are now 8o in- terlocked that we have to count the | cost before we strike.” Wage Increase He said also the change was due in part to the increase in wages that | made a workmun hesitate before | quitting his job. In connection with this, he recalled the difference in conditions now and when he cnmei to New Orleans in search of work | nearly 40 years ago. “I remember my work here on the levee,” he sald *“I was driving a pair of mules that dragged a dirt scraper. Never before had 1 driven mules, but T had to have a job, and was willing to try anything. Some | | how, one day, the handle of the | scraper came up and handed me vicked cut across one of my eyes. 'he boss saw the blood on my face and fired me for incompetence. By all the rules of the game T had at lcast $20 of pay coming to me, but did T get 1t? I did not.

Secretary Davis indicated he be- lieved workmen had nothing to fear from the &0 called “labor-saving” machines. He said that they were becoming ‘“leisure-producing ma- chines” and that he believed they had a great deal to do with the movement away from the long day and the seven-day week. Prosperity General He said prosperity was fairly gen- eral but there was room for im- provement in some industries, not- ably; the textile, shoe and soft eval industries. In reviewing the work done by his department, Secretary Davis said he believed in voluntary arbitration, and that he had found that force would not work. “We must arrive at our industrial conclusions in a peaceful "and bar. monious way.” League Has Loaned Over Half Billion Geneva, Switzerland, Nov. 23 UP— Recongtruction and refugee loans is- sued under the auspices of the League of Nations passed the half billion dollar mark with the suc- | cessful flotation of a $25,000,000 loan to Bulgaria.
