that United States steel has announced
a wage cut of 10 per cent, and its
example has been followed by several
jther industries. It is to the credit of
the big steel company that it has re
duced wages as the last resort in ltd
campaign of economy instead of the

that it withheld reduction of its wage
scale until the last, and then announ

threat against wages, coming at a
time when most people believe the de

widely deplored. It is felt by those
