HIGH PAY, LESS WORK
Dealers Declare Output Ha3
Been Halved, While Wages
Go Up 300 Per Cent
BOOMS INCREASE SCARCITY
Men in the lumber camps and saw
mills arc doing half as much work as
before for three times as much paj
Thousands ho formerly worked in
the mills and lumber camps have gone
to the tobacco fields and other lines of
work less strenuous
These are the two chief reasons for
the high cost of lumber, local dealers
say.
Hundreds of men who were formerly
satisfied with the life in a sawmill and
the small towns down South changed
their view of life entirely after entering
the country's service. Many got a taste
of big city life for the first time. They
met youth" of their own age who earned
three times as much money as thej of
the South did.
City attractions also appealed to
them, and so the sawmill life and the
home-town movie seemed slow and in
significant.
Large Wage Demanded
Those who did return demanded big
pay and the employers had to meet the
demand or close down their mills,
An illustration of increase in the cost
per thousand feet of ordinary lumber
may be seen by the following compari
son of present prices with those of four
years ago:
1015 into
Hemlock .... . ..127
Lionr-loaf mellow pine
North Carolina sizes yellow pine St
Yellow pine noorlnc 3
A representative of Charles F. Felin
& Co., Old Tork road and Butler street,
said that mills are only providing about
00 per cent of their normal output.
The resumption of building booms In
Philadelphia and other cities will, of
course, increase the scarcity, he said
Normal building activities were resumed
by other cities some time ago, and
Philadelphia was the last to start.
Higher Wages, Less Work
In addition to rereiving higher wages,
employes of the saw mills down South
are doing less work, according to a
representative of the firm of Joseph II.
Collins & Son, dealers, Twelfth street
and Glenwood nvenue.
"A working force which formerly pro
duced 50,000 feet a day," he said, "now
produces 25,000 feet and receives three
times as much wages as before. This is
one of the many reasons for Increase In
the cost of lumber. The men are not re
turning to the mills, but are going to
the tobacco fields and to other lines.
The mills are oversold all the time.
Incidentally, many of the men working
In the mills are driving about in lim
ousines." A representative of Charles Benton
& Co., Front and Reed streets, and
Nthose of other concerns agreed that the
chief cause of lumber scarcity was the
failure of the southern mills to turn
out the work.

Ilobert J. McKenty, warden of the

yesterday to denv that narcotics and
liquor had at times been smuggled

ATTACK ON M'KENTY

expressed indignation oer the charges

ern Penitentiary. Mr. Bradv issued
the following formal statement:
The reported investigation of the
Eastern State Penitentiary Is certainlv
unnecessary, since there is absoluteh no
doubt that the penitentiary is the best
conducted institution of its kind in
America and has a warden in the ner-
son of Robert J. McKenty who has not

one of the board of prison inspectors,
an undertaker by the name of Dunlap,
is the instigator of the investigation,
but it is hard to believe that Governor
Sproul would pav anv attention to
statements of Dunlap, who was a polit
ical appointee of the Brumbaueh ad
ministration. The other members of the
board are men of the highest standing.
wno nave in mum tne uest interests of
the prison and the prisoners.
"Warden McKenty is a nracticnr
man, who is an ardent exponent of the
square dear principle and a man held
In the highest esteem by his fellow-citizens
of Philadelphia. He has brought
the Eastern State Penitentiary to Its
present high position by a constant
study ot tne inmates and ot means to
Improve them in character and ability."
LIQUOR MEN TO KEEP LAW
But Demand Unconditional Removal
of Bans 1000 Meet Here
Unconditional removal of all restric
tions upon the sale of liquor was de
manded by more than 1000 members of
the Philadelphia Ketau Liquor Dealers'
Association at a meeting in Lu Lu
Templo yesterday. Not even a con
cession in the passage of the bill Intro
duced by uepresentativc Ramsey, ot
Delaware county, which would legalize
the manufacture of xji per cent beer,
was desirable, the liquor men decided.
By unanimous vote they decided to go
to Harrisburg today to urge the bill's
defeat, and, failing in this, to appeal
to Governor Sproul to eto the meas
ure, i
As a retaliatory measure, if their at
tempts to hold back the enforcement of
bone-dry laws until January 16, 1020,
fall, they agreed unanimously to make
the city as ,dry as Death Valley and
show the direful results of prohibition.
The liquor men, it was learned, vowed
yesterday that they would not sell a
drop Illicitly.
It was decided also to send a commit
tee to Washington to appeal to members
of Congress to remove the prohibition
on all liquors, once the peace treaty is
signed and the war officially over. The
