40 Years Ago
Ford Raised Pay
DETROIT (ft Forty years ago
today Henry f ord gave the indus
trial world a jolt It long remem
bered: Ae established the $S-a-day
minimum wage in hia factories.
Ford's historic scale announced
Jan. S. 1914, became effective a
week later. Factory wages then
ranged from $1 to $2.90 a day,
depending on skill.
Ford'i action was of tremen
dous significance, socially and eco
nomically. It brought instantaneous
criticism as well ai praise.
"Industrial suicide," tome man
ufacturers wailed.
"Just social Justice," Ford re
plied.
'It will ruin (he Ford company'
and others with it," cried the
critics. "Ford is trying to buy the
workers' souls."
"It's a sound thing, economical
ly and socially," Ford retorted,
"and the time is not far distant
when none can fail to realise it."
Ford always maintained "the
country's best market ia created
by the wages it pays.
The industrial bombshell he
dropped on his competitors, of
course, did not ruin them or the
Ford Motor Co.
The company Ford founded 10
years earlier on a shoestring had
just filed its financial statement.
This showed assets of approxi
mately 35 million dollars and a
surplus in excess of 21 million.
A year later, after paying out
10 million in profit-sharing bonuses
in addition to the doubled wage
scale, the company reported more I
than 614 million in assets and a:
surplus of nearly 49 million. I
The profit-sharing plan Ford i
coupled with his minimum wage
program in 1914 continued through
1920. It was ended in 1921 in favor I
of further wage adjustments. i

This bust of former President Truman got loving care as
shown by this young lady back In December 1948 when the
marble likeness was first installed just outside the Senate
Chamber. Over the years, though, the bust has come in for
some rough handling with Washington visitors tweaking Tru
man's famous nose, therefore keeping the clean-up men hop
ping to keep it respectable., Nevertheless, when the nation's
lawmakers return for the opening of Congress Jan. 6 they will
find the Capitol spotlessly clean including the marble pro

Close Yamhill
Locks Feb. 3
PORTLAND J Cl Thcnv
as H. Lipscomb, Portland dis
trict engineer, ssid todsy the
53-vesr-oid Yamhill river lock
near Lafayette would be closed
for all navigation effective Feb.
3.
A lack of use by commercial
traffic was given as reason for
the closure.
CoL Lipscomb said a public
hearing was held last Sept. 8 in
McMinnville and that navigation
interests displayed little interest
in keeping the lock open for nav
igation. Farmers along the riv
er above the lock, however,
were interested in having the
water level maintained to facil
itate their pumping of water for
irrigation purposes.
Army engineers have pro
posed that the land, dam and
lock be transferred to a state or
county government to be main
tained as a public park.
