This question, Mr. Swope declared,
s directly related to the unemploy
ment problem, which is the most
trious question facing the country
"oday. Attempts to solve it through
pensions, insurance and - similar
emedies would, at best, provide only
temporary relief, he said.
"The man earning a good wage
an save enough to provide for rainy
lays." Mr. Swope continued. "The
provision of the means of thrift and
'nvestment for the workment is one
if the things which industry must
lake inot consideration."
Proper Housing Needed
Mr. Swope holds that as a corollary
o the paying of higher wages, in
dustrial plants should make it pos
sible for the American workman to
carry adequate insurance and to
properly house himself and his
family.
Mr. Swope does not favor the de
veloping of housing projects by
'manufacturer landlords," but be-
Meves that this problem, like all
ither aspects of the labor situation,
ihould find its solution in the light
if the "individualistic philosophy"
rhat is characteristic of America.
If industry were to provide bene
Its of this character, the unemploy
ment problem would be practically
solved, Mr. Swope believes. The pres
ent situation where an able, trained
and willing worker is unable to find
a job constitutes, he holds, "the most
severe Indictment against modern
civilization," with a large measure of
the solution in the hands measure of
the solution in the hands of the in
lustries themselves.
American Wages

Survey of World's Industries Gives

New York Despite the higher
purchasing power of wages in for
eign countries, the American wage
earners' economic status still ranges
from 25 per cent to 450 per cent
above that of workers engaged in
similar trades in other countries, ac
cording to a survey just made public
by the National Industrial Confer
ence Board. The board's analysis was
made from data collected by the In
ternational Labor Office of the
League of Nations at Geneva con
cerning the wage rates and economic
status of .workers in various trades.
Using the "real wage" of the
worker in Philadelphia as 100, the
board's figures show that during Oc

An Excellent Man Di:s
On last Sunday at his home in
Greenwood, Charles Anderson, who
has been a citizen of Cass county for
the past nearly sixty years, .fter an
illness of many weeks, passed away.
Mr. Anderson was born in Sweden on
July 8, 1847, and lived there until
he was a grown man, and co:tning to
America, settled in Cass county near
Greenwood and has been one of the
people who has made this th great
est state in the greatest country in
the world. Following the cessation
of his farming activities, he came
with the good wife to live in Green
wood, and has made an exemplary
citizen and has been loved, honored
and revered by all who have had the
opportunity to have known him.
The good wife died nearly two
years ago and is now followed by the
devoted husband. He leaves three
sons to mourn his going, they being
Leonard Anderson, Alfred Anderson
and Arthur Anderson, all of whom
reside near Greenwood.
Uncle Charles Anderson united
early in life with the Christian
church and from which he was bur
ied. Throughout the years he re
mained a constant and devoted fol
lower of the Master. The funeral
was held from the church of his
choice, the services being conducted
by C. A. Sparks, former5 pastor of the
church in Greenwood, but who for
some time has made his home in
Lincoln. Mr. Anderson was also a
member of the Masonic Order and the
Odd Fellows, the former having
charge of the services at the church.
while the latter held their services
at the cemetery, where he found his
last resting place until the Angel of
the Resurrection shall call all to life
on the last day.
