COTTON MEN DENY LOW WAGE RUMOR Resent Impression Created by Debate in Ottawa House Montreal.-- Resentment pressed by Canadian cotton manufacturers with the public impression that such low average wages as $6 per week for female workers are being pald in Que- bec cotton mills created by the debate in the House of Commons Ottawa recently hy A. A. Heaps and J. S. Woodsworth, of Winnipeg. According to Gustave Francq, is ex- resi. | or | | ques chairman of the Quebec Women's Minimum Wage Board, "the cur- rent wage paid in any industry is far above the legal average wage et by the law, as for instance in the textile industry in this province, In this industry the average wage per week for all female employes, including ap- prentices and experienced work- ers, was in Montreal $12.89 in 1928, $13.38 in 1929, $13.33 in 1950 and $13.45 in 1921, and up to July 1 of 1932, $13.25." In textile mills outside of Montreal, in 1928 the average was $11.40, 1929 it was $12.04, in 1930 $12.01, in 1931 it , and for the period up to of 1932 the average was mn Enter Field "These figures cover the entire field of the textile trades, in- cludin weaving, knitting, spin- ning and allied processes," said Mr. Francq.

HOOVER PLANS FOR ECONOMY "TAKING SHAPE Congress Expected To Be in More Pliant Mood to Accept Cuts Washington.--~ Complete reor- ganization of the Federal Gov- ernment, which President Hoover was authorized to undertake at the last session of Congress, looms as an imminent probabil- ity on the political horizon, Spurred on by the burden of a mounting deficit and still acute memories of the elections, Con- gress is in a more receptive mood for accepting federal economies, even at the cost of a reduction in the number of political jobs, than it has been in many years. In this atmosphere President Hoover will submit carefully prepared plans for probably the | most thoroughgoing reorganiza- tion ever attempted in any gov- | Major steps now expected to | be taken to achieve the $700,-! 000,000 savings are as follows: | 1. Conversion of the present compulsory federal furlough into a straight 8.3 per cent salary cut | for all government employees from highest to lowest, This in | fteelf would save over $100,000,- | 000, 2. Consolidation and elimina- tion of agencies and bureaus to prevent duplication of services, minimize red tape and promote efficiency. Savings from this source have not been accurately estimated, but might run up to at least $100,000,000, depending entirely on the extent to which tthey would be carried. 3. Slashing of regular depart- mental budgets, This has already | been done in the tentative hudget figures now before the House appropriations Committee. The extent of these savings has not been made public, but it is said to be considerable, 4. Reductions in provisiong for veterans' relief, probably .in the form of some curb of payment of allowance for nonservice con- | nected disabilities and less leni- ent regulations in regards to pre- | sumptive disabilities, Provided the veterans' lobbies don't pre- vent any economies in this direc- tion, $100,000,000 might be cut here. 5. Curtailment of emergency public works construction pro- grams on the ground that im- proving conditions obviate the | | necessity for new work to follow | ele what is under way at the pres- ent. Construction work now in hand will last out the winter, Although such economies will} sadly reduce the number of choice plums available for Dem- ocratic partisans on March 4, the responsible leaders of the party emphasize the need for economy and decline to express any op- position to the proposed reduc- tion in the number of available government jobs, Vice-President- Elect Garner, who returned to Washington today, expressed thorough agreement in the econ- omy program.

It finds the city's resources for helping them sadly depleted. The needs of the past pale into insignificance before the cry for help which will be heard for the next few months. The situation is so serious that only the most generous response will enable these suffering fam- ilies to be fed, clothed, sheltered and kept warm through the bitter winter days. The situation can only be met if the objective of $25,000 is more than achieved in the three-day campaign of next week, What Your Money Will Do! Every dollar you: subscribe to be spent in actual relief will be augmented by four dollars from the provincial and Dominion governments. This money will provide the Public Welfare Board with the finances necessary to provide groceries, bread, milk, meat, fuel, shelter, water and light for families which would otherwise be starving, cold and homeless. . It will enable the Women's Welfare League to distribute clothing to the thousands of men, women and children who are facing the wintry blasts with totally inadequate and insufficient clothing. Your money will enable the city of Oshawa to carry this tremendous burden of caring for those in desperate need.
