THE EVENING WORLD, WEDNESDAY, JULY 20, 1921, ACCEPT LOWER PAY WHEN EMPLOVERS CUT LIVING COSTS} Dunbar (Pa.) i heen Work: | | ers Contented With Reduced | Scale and Plant Is Going. | PITTSBURGH, July 20—A 40 per eent. w cut accepted and still the Man- employees of the American | ganese Manufacturing Company at/ Dunbar, a furnace town near here, are happy. ‘This result is due to}fl General Manager R. M. Marshall. Mr. Marshall had received orders from the Philadelphia offices of his company to close down on July 1, but he proposed a plan that would keep the plant running, This was to cut wages, but at the same time re- duce the cost of living almost, if not quite, proportionally, ‘The officials of the company agreed to this if the employees could be won over. Rather than be thrown out of work’ the men accepted the cut. It enabled the plant to continue oper- ations at 70 per cent. of its former activity. Between 600 and 700 men are employed there, most of them imar- ried men with families. ‘The rent of the company houses, which are occupled by 60 per cent. of the employees, was reduced 40 per cent, to conform with the lowered wage, and the price of necessities of life came down in proportion. Land- Jords of houses not owned by the company. The plan of Mr. Marshall has at- tracted Nation-wide interest, Officials of the Washington Coal and Coke Company of Dawson, with plants at Siar Junction, near Connellsville, placed a similar proposition before their. employees. This plant had practically been closed, throwing sey- grad hundred men out of work. Only seventy coke ovens out of 1,000 were in operation. The company received a big order, but to fill it at prevailing wage rates would have meant a loss, The employees proposed a 10 per cent, wage cut. In return the company offered a like cut in hours, rent and also a reduc- tion on goods at the stores tt oper- ated. The men accepted, and on July 1 Star Junction again became a Harted 1,500 Feet in Mine.
