Is the truth. An examination of of

whole.
The m anufacturing section United

Later studies of wage scales show
that the situation still obtains. The
average weekly wage paid in Wiscon

Industrial commission, was 323.93
Strange to say. while wages elsewhere
have risen, they have declined in WIs

less a week, according to the U. S.
rensus of 1919. In Wisconsin, how
ever, only 81.8 per cent of the workers

Chairman Patterson Recalls
Costly Venture During

Portland. O r.— (S p ecial.)— That the
people of the Untied States have been

and again during government control
of railroads and that these expensive
adventures should not be repealed was
the gist of a statement Issued here by
I. L. Patterson, chalrmnn of the Re
publican State C entral committee. Mr.
Patterson said:
"L a F o lle tte proponents for govern

no doubt, the shipping board's pro
longed and costly attem pt to operate
the nation's vessels at a profit. The
experim ent cost the country many m il
lions.
"T h e y must have forgotten, too,
government operation of railroads dur
ing the war period. This was an ex
periment in socialism and was a co
lossal and oxtravagant failure.
"Governm ent operation lasted 24
months. It gave the public the poor

had ever known and the moat expen

nothing was given the public in re

"R ailroads of the country had been

than two years snd turnAd them back
to th e ir owners w ith 204 few er loco
motives and only 1300 more freight

more engines snd cars wars out of

" It might be said that the railroads
