“AVERAGE WAGES |
UP 10 CENTS AN HOUR FOR STATE
Indiana Bureau Attributes] Gain in Year to Recent Increases in Pay.
~ Recent wage increases by manu- | facturing concerns have helped in boosting ‘the average hourly earnings of Indiana factory workers from 60.1 cents in ‘April, 1936, to 70.1 cents in April of this year, ac- | cording to Indiana State Eirploy- | ment Service statistics. - The gain has raised the per capita weekly earnings of factory employees from $24.47 to $29.90 curing the year. Calvin C. Davis, State Employment Service statistician, said the gain’ was due more to increased wages than to lengihened . working hours because the average gain in working hours over the year period was only six-tenths of an hour. He said
that recently factory |
" managers have been instituting the |
40-hour week in addition to grant-| ing wage increases. | “The non-durable goods -industries were the least affected by the depression,” Mr. Davis said. “The natural’ recovery is coming to the heavy goods factories which require more highly skilled and more highly paid workers.” During April, Mr. Davis revealed, 121 firms in the state granted wage increases affecting 91,831 employees. The Employment Service statistics were obtained from samples taken among Indiana employers in conjunction with the Bureau of Lahor Statistics. of the U. Ss Department of Labor.

TRAILER RULES HERE PROPOSED | BY MAYOR KERN
Wants Measure to Control Parking and Sanitation Of House Cars.
Mayor Kern today said that he had requested Health Department officials to outline an ordinance regulating the parking and sanitary conditions of trailers in Indianapolis. “While Indianapolis has had little trouble from trailers, this mode of travel has caused such an acute housing and health problem in other cities that I believe now is the time to outline a program of control,” Mayor Kern said. He named Joe Rautenberg, Health Board chief clerk, to direct study of trailer conditions. Any recommendations on trailer regulation will combine features of trailer ordinances in other cities in addition to rules that would best apply to local conditions, the Mayor said. Mr. Rautenberg said Trecommendations probably would include provisions for limited parking of trailers on specified locations; establishment of a municipal trailer camp for transients and a tax for use of city property. Predicts Trailer Taxation
“Taxation of the trailer itself unquestionably will be one of the principal methods adopted by all cities in the future to offset extra governmental costs imposed by the trailer ‘mcde of life,” Mr. Rautenberg said. “And we no doubt will recommend a system of taxation to pe incorporated in the proposed ordinance.” Mayor Kern pointed out that regulation of trailers can be accomplished now only through sanitary iaws and that effective control could not be maintained. “The trailer poses a serious problem both from the health and city beautification point of view,” the Mayor said, “and the earlier we prepare for what is bound to become a major problem the better off we are.” 3 Regulation Attempts Made
Attempts at regulation have been made in Oakland, Cal.; Miami, Fla.; Sarasota, Fla.; Long Beach, Cal; Lincoln: Neb., and other cities. ° The trailer- regulation law in Oakland, one of the first enacted in the country, prohibits parking except in tourist camps, specified various health and sanitation mea- | sires and requires registration open to police inspection. A municipal trailer camp is provided in Washington. .
