At that time the question of the 41. minimum s-al'i came up In connection with the general Improvement of the lumber market. The board thought bent Io l ave the general minimum uiirhangeii for the present, as this sealo applies to the whole territory of (he organi zation eiiunlly, and It wits held that I u rovmeiit of Ihe mark' t was not yet sufficiently stable and uniform, it was. however, freely stated In thi di. (: n by employer niembers of ihe i ir 1, tr ' wage i Inn ge, In ar cordi :ce will; I'cul conditions, would probably bo made, and that Ihe 4L nut' binery enabled eucli dislrlct to adj'it Its going wages through th district beard sitting a wage boards. This I what is being done, and It la being accomplished without friction of any kind." In speaking ol 'hese advances, Mr. Coleman observes. "Tlio common la bor rate Is i Hod as a basis; but a a i matter of fact, in all lumber opern ; Mens, common labor Is only a small I proportion of tho working force, tint javcrago wage puld miming about a dollar n day abovo the common labor nite.
