that iiiiIokh wngtw of tho poorer paid
workers of thu country nro raised
nnd certain pnrasltlc industries aro
abandoned the stork of Auiorloan
workmen will rapidly deguuurnto.
H urged the establishment of n
inlnlmtiiii wago whluh In n glvou
community would permit those re-
ceiving It to enjoy a Htandanl of
living which would mnlntnln or In-
crease thoir oltloluncy. Ho oltud
many precedents lo show that it
would be purfoelly reasonable for
legislatures to uH8 huoIi legislation
as would ho necossnry to create
Statu Hoards with tho admlnlstrn-
l tlvu power or fixing a minimum
' wage.
In gumming up tho objections
' which have boon mndo against tho
abridgement of freedom of contract
which would be established hy min-
im u in wage legislation tho speaker
Bald tliat tho most Important objec
tion Ih brought forwnrd by thoBu
! who contend that tho economic pro
' cessoa of production exchange ills
trllmtlon nnd consumption could not
bo ho modified hy thu proposed log-
Islntlon an to bring about a happy
' result. "Specifically and In brief
j that argument Is this: an Increase
J In tho wages of tho underpaid In
any glvon Industry would cause an
Increase In tho cost of production
Increased cost of production would
necessitate a rise In tho price of the
product tho lattor would bo fol-
lowed by lessened demand at least
on the part of those consumers who
were not also producers of tho
goods in question and tho dimin
ished demand would elthor bo bal
iwMid by nn Increased demand on
tho pnrt or tho laborers whoco wa-
ges had been Increased or It wouM
not ho thus balanced. In tho for-
mer hypnthoalH tho workers would
loae an ROiiHuiuerH all that they had

ter contlngunuy some of them would
bo thrown out of employment. This
objection Is no morn valid against

burden on tho employer nnd tends
to Inorenso tho eost of production
and tho prlcv of tho product. Ah
a matter of fact this argument has
always been usod against nny Inter-
ference with froedom of contract be-
tween master nnd man. whether by
legal or trade union action. It was
for many years effectively urged
both by manufacturers and econo-
mists against tho first proposal to
limit the hours of labor aii'l age of

been prolonged in ever Increasing
harshness to the present hour and
