the present controversy in that In

A remarkable step forward in the adjustment of labor
controversies lias been taken by England, in the building
trades settlement. A sliding wage scale has been adop
ted, based altogether on the cost of living. Hereafter
Watrcs in the building industry will go un or down will
nriees. Eor evcrv rise or fall i f i:i noints in the cost of.
Jiving, as shown by an official index number, there will 1
an automatic increase or decrease ot two cents
It is not unlikelv that this is the tiriuei
wages will have to be adjusted hereafter everywhere, if
there is ever to be an end to industrial warftire. It is a
principle which has been adopted already in occasional in
stances and on a small scale in this count rv. The Knglish
example may result in increased interest and an effort to
exfend its operation here and elsewhere.
The difficulties are evident. It, would be far hardc"1
to'iljiiSiy lrt'Aincril-a;fhi(rt 'in' Eitgiaiid, because this coun
try is so much larger, and working coudilios and living
costs are so varied, and there is no accepted standard of
living to start from and no established index number to
represent a standard, .vverineiess, as mis heen siigge
ted', progress probably lies along this line.
