URTHER light upon woman’s work and wages in our larger F factories and stores is promised in a report of investigations made by a number of college women, who, entering into service along with the workers, have learned at first hand of the conditions that prevail among them. It is announced that among the disclosures to be made are facts establishing the insufficiency of wages to procure women in many instances enough to sustain life in full vigor, no matter how morally or abstemionsly the worker lives. Thus it is said that among the ealeswomen in our stores are eome whose only breakfast is a alice of bread and a glass of water, and whose only lunch is s piece of pie and 8 cup of coffee or tea. In the face of such facts stands the economic law that until one has become efficient as a worker the wages must be inefficient. From this is deduced the argument that if a minimum wage be fixed by law, those that cannot earn it will be dismissed from employment and their families deprived of even the little they have been adding to the household economy. It is a plainly drawn issue between humanity and the iron law of wages, but if humanity persists it will win this fight as it has done others. T E. E. Hicks and Le Grand Kerr, have been haled before the bar of the Kings County Medical Society for trial on charge of violating the ethics of the profession. Dr. Dixon in particular was accused of giving out information calculated to benefit the public. He does not seem repentant, but the others are aliver to their eins. This ethical business has long been the bane of a noble profe:- sion. Just as the Inquisition, designed to preserve tho purity of Teligion, led to atrocities without equal in the rich record of human savagery, 80 medical ethics have been twisted to repel advance in science, to protect incompetents and to embarrass the houschold in ite rights to the free employment of whom it pleases in the precious work. of alleviating iliness and preserving life. The record weloome accorded Dr. Friedmann by the County Medical Society need not be cited in point. The criticisms of Dr. Flexner will do as a complete enough example. Hippocrates and Galen would be shamed by the antics of these organized bodies of physicians, too often more intent upon protecting their pocketbooks end hiding blunders than upon the preservation a ay Sey MEDICAL “ETHICS.” HREE Brooklyn physicians of standing, Dre. ‘Thomas Dixon, ——— reasonable fees. PAYING AS WE GO. ‘ HE paternaliom of large corporations toward their employeos T continues to develop in new directions and furnish new proofs I of tender regard. In addition to model dwellings and schools * nd pensions and compulsory thrift, it hes of late undertaken to supervise recreation and even marriage. The latest development is reported from Philadelphia, where « large firm employing 700 men has offered to give each one of them 15 cents every time he takes & bath, provided he does not exceed one a day. To give the plan an economic standing, it is called “Cheap Insurance Against Dis- ease.” It is to be edded, the company furnishes the bathing plant with soap and towels. The plan is not whimsical. It eccords with proposals in many localities to pay children for going to school. In ancient Athena citizens received pay for going to the theatre. We may some day pay citizens to vote as well as to bathe; we may even offer a premium for marriage and bounties for babice. ————$_<4-2—_______ HONEST MISTAKES. ‘ ONFRONTED by evidence that the visite of Sweeney to Harti- - gen in the Tombs had not been recorded as required by law, ; those charged with responsibility for keeping the record plead that the omission was an “honest mistake.” It is unfortunate that so many similar mistakes or blunders or emissions or neglects have taken place since the beginning of the search for the mysteries that lay behind the shooting of Rosenthal and made it not only possible but inevitable. It is also unfortunate that all of them have had the luck and chance to be on one aide and to tend toward hampering investigation. To confront these varied misfortunes, there is but one good fortune—that of having @ District-Attorney who will not trust too cre@ulousty to an honesty so lacking in impartiality, but will make inquiry.
