NEW HIGH
carnings of the soft coal miners
reached $86.99. a new all-time high,
according to figures just released by
tke U. S. Bureau of Labor Statis-
the average weekly wage in 1946,
the first postwar year, and 264.3
percent higher than the 1939 level.
advanced only 35.6 percent since
1946 and 99.2 percent since 1939.
The union claims all the credit |
for such gains as these. But, with-
out arguing the pros and cons of
that point. it is evident that only |
a vital, progressive industry could,
pay wages of this magnitude. They
could not be paid if the coal were!
still—as many people
think—a pick-and-shovel business.
Actually. the techniques of coal
mining have “been almost totally
revolutionized in a comparatively
brief of time. The industry
has spent buge sums of morjey on
equipment which has mechanized
mining processes all the way from |
erroneously |
digging into the seams to cleaning
and sorting the different grades and
types of the fuel. The miner is a
skilled craftsman and the niachine
is his servant,
One result of all this is found in|
the hizh wages and other benefits.
Still another is found in
steadily improving safety record—
a recerd which has been praised in
the highest terms by the U. S. Bur-
of Mines and other auathorita,
tive agencies. The coal industry has |
gone ahead — and the miner
gone ahead with it.

A DECENT WAGE
When you make a purchase in a
retail store, you know that some of
your money goes to buy the goods |
the store sells, some of it goes for
wages, taxes, and other overhead
eosts, and some of it represents the |
storé’s- profit. But the chances are
you don’t know how small thle lat-
ter item is.
A ‘survey was recently published |
dealing with the 1951 financial ‘ex- |
perience of the nation’s larger de- |
partnient stores. These stores earn-
ed a net profit, after taxes, of 24%
of sales. This was 1.4 per cent he-!
low last year, and represented the |
lowest return since 1939. I
In other words, the stores were]
able to keep, after all the bills were
paid, only a little more than 2 cents |
out of each dollar that went thru |
