Eighty trades and subdivisions of trades have been included. Most agreements for the year are settled before May 15.

The average rates for the several trades and groups of trades in 1927 in comparison with the rates in 1926 appear in Table 1, page 4. The hourly rates of wages for all trades herein shown taken collectively, exclusive of the street railway occupations, show an advance from $1,148 per hour in 1926 to $1,190 per hour in 1927, an increase of 3.7 per cent. Following is a list of trade groups for which data are shown in this report and the per cent of change in hourly wages as compared with 1926. Bus drivers have been omitted from these groups because data were not secured until 1927.

Weekly hours for all trades taken as a unit have changed but slightly since 1926, having decreased 0.5 per cent. The only significant changes in hours per week were those for chauffeurs and teamsters and drivers, which showed a decrease of 1.4 per cent, and for longshoremen, a decrease of "1.3 per cent. Linemen showed an increase of 0.2 per cent and granite and stone trades an increase of 0.1 per cent. The other groups had slight decreases.

The average hours for the United States in all trades herein covered, not including street railways, are 45.2 per week. The rates and hours of street railway motormen and conductors do not enter into the grand averages for all trades combined, as men in these occupations do not have uniform hours. For their rates see page 228. In the following statement the average hours for the several groups are shown. Hours for bus drivers and motormen and conductors are omitted because of irregularity of rims. Barbers’ hours are omitted because hours agreed to are for time shop is open and are minimum hours.

For convenience in comparisons, all rates are shown per full-time week as well as per hour. The average full-time weekly rates for 1927 for all trades combined showed an advance of 3.2 per cent over the 1926 figures.

Weekly rates in 1927 showed small increases in several groups, ranging irom one-tenth of 1 per cent for linemen to 4 per cent for chauffeurs and teamsters and drivers. Three groups showed decreases—longshoremen, 3.6 per cent; laundry workers, 2 per cent; and granite and stone trades, 0.6 per cent.

It is impossible, of course, to follow up the thousands of individual union members and get from them the amount of time they work and the amount of time they do not work; hence no statement can be made of their actual earnings in a week or in a year. This report can treat only of rates of wages as distinct from actual earnings.

This year, in addition to the foregoing, a tabulation has been made of the rates of wages for 2,730 bus drivers and 23,670 barbers, for which see pages 231 and 232.

The majority of the organized bus drivers were found to be in the street railway local unions and in most cases the busses are auxiliary to the electric street railways. It was found impracticable to tabulate the number of hours worked and the full-time earnings per week


for bus drivers owing to the variation in length and the shifting of trips, as is also the case with street-railway motormen and conductors.

The manner of the compensation of barbers is such that it is impracticable to show rates per hour or total full-time earnings per week. As shown on page 232, organized barbers are usually paid a guaranteed rate per full-time week and in addition participate on some percentage basis in receipts over a specified amount per week. In a few cases, compensation is based entirely on a percentage of the amount taken in, with no guaranty given. The hours shown are minimum full-time hours per week exclusive of time taken for meals. The agreements provide that the barber shop shall close daily at a definite time and that the barbers shall continue working on all patrons in the shop at that time, no extra compensation being allowed for the overtime.

For a description of the scope of this report and the methods followed see pages 72 and 74.

AVERAGE HOURLY RATES OF WAGES AND NUMBER OF CHANGES IN UNION SCALES, BY TRADES

The average money rates of wages per hour as of May 15, 1927 and 1926, for the country as a whole are given for each trade and for trade groups in Table 1. These averages were obtained by multiplying each hourly rate by the number of members of the union, then adding the products and the number of members and dividing the aggregate wages by the aggregate number of members. The membership is held strictly confidential and is used only for the purpose of computing the averages.

There are tabulated for 1927, 4,595 union-scale quotations, for 335 of which there are no comparable data for 1926. Of the 4,260 union-scale quotations for which there are comparable data for 1926, 2,742 had not changed during the year and 1,518 had changed in rates or hours or in both of these items. There are 1,409 instances of an increase in hourly wage rates in 1927 as compared with 1926, 1,291 instances of an increase in wage rates per week, and 35 instances of an increase in hours of labor. There are 64 instances of a reduction in hourly wage rates in 1927 as compared with 1926, 96 instances of a reduction in wage rates per week, full time, and 146 instances of a reduction in hours of labor. Of the 35 instances of increase in the hours of labor, 10 occurred in the bakery trades, 3 in the building trades, 11 in chauffeurs and teamsters and drivers, 2 in the granite and stone trades, 1 in linemen, 2 in longshoremen, 4 in book and job printing trades, and 2 in the newspaper printing trades.

UNION SCALES

AGES AND

HOURS OF

LABOR


Table 1 shows that of the 260 bakery trade quotations comparable with 1926,32 had an increase, 12 a decrease, and 216 had no change in wage rates per hour; 25 had an increase, 2 a decrease, and 233 no change in wage rates per week, full time; while 10 had an increase, 7 a decrease, and 243 no change in the number of hours per week. The other items of the table may be read in like manner.

Owing to the shifting of trips and the many variations of hours of work in the operation of street cars, the hours per week and rates of wages per week of motormen and conductors are omitted from this report. Of the 58 changes reported for this group 55 were increases and 3 were decreases in rates of wages per hour.

Expressed in percentages of the total number (1,518) of union-scale quotations in which there were changes, 92.8 per cent resulted in increases and 4.2 per cent in decreases in rates of wages per hour; 85.0 per cent provided increases and 6.3 per cent decreases in wage rates per full-time week; and 2.3 per cent provided increases and 9.7 per cent decreases in the hours per week.

WEEKLY HOURS OF LABOR, BY TRADES

Table 2 shows the percentage of members in each trade or occupation working certain classified hours per week on May 15, 1927.

It will be observed from the table that 95.8 per cent of the bakers had a week of 48 hours or less; that 97.3 per cent of the building trades had a week of 44 hours or less; that 80.7 per cent of all the union membership covered had a week of 44 hours or less and 90.9 per cent a week of 48 hours or less.

The combined organized trades herein represented have thus nearly reached the 8-hour day, and more than four-fifths of their membership have also attained the Saturday half-holiday, resulting in a 44-hour week.

According to Table 3 the weekly rate of bakers increased 158.0 per cent between 1913 and 1927. This means that the bakers’ full-time weekly wage rate in 1927 was slightly more than two and one-half times the rate of 1913. Between 1907 and 1927 the bakers’ weekly rate increased 203.2 per cent. In other words, bakers’ wages in 1927 were more than three times those of 1907.

Data for all trades are not available as far back as 1913. So far as shown, the greatest increase in any trade between 1913 and 1927 was in steam and sprinkler fitters’ helpers. Here the increase was 197.1 per cent, making the rate 2.97 times as much in 1927 as in 1913. The greatest increase between 1907 and 1927 is also for steam and sprinkler fitters’ helpers. In this trade the weekly rate in 1927 was more than three and one-half times the rate in 1907.


INDEX NUMBERS OF ALL TRADES COMBINED, 1907 TO 1927

The index numbers in Table 4 are s im p ly percentages in which the ratesfor allof the years were compared with the rate in theselected base year, which is taken as 100. Table 4 shows the extent of the changes in all cities and all trades combined, in union wage scales taken as a whole for each year from 1907 to 1927; the data for preceding years are drawn from earlier reports. The pre-war year 1913 is taken as the base.T a b l e 4.— Index numbers of union wage rates and hours of labor from 1907 to 1927

Table 4 shows that union wage rates per hour were higher in 1927 than in any preceding year, the index for 1927 being 259.5. This means that union wage rates per hour as a whole were more than two and one-half times as much in 1927 as they were in 1913.

Full-time hours per week were 7.6 per cent lower in 1927 than in 1913 and full-time weekly earnings were more than two and one- third times as much in 1927 as in 1913.

As some readers may desire to make comparisons with the initial year, 1907, a table of index numbers has been computed from the same basic figures, starting with 1907 as 100.T a b le 5*—Index numbers of union wage rates and hours of labor from 1907 to

Table 5 shows an index for wage rates per hour of 289.2 in 1927 as compared with 100 in 1907. This means that the rates per hour were more than two and three-fourths times as much in 1927 as in 1907. The index for full-time hours per week in 1927 is 90.0, meaning that since 1907 full-time hours per week had decreased 10 per cent. The index for full-time rates of wages per week stands at 263.1 in 1927, meaning that full-time # weekly earnings were more than two and one-half times as much in 1927 as in 1907.

An inspection of these index numbers shows that the grand average of union rates of wages per hour and per full-time week has been steadily increasing for the last twenty years, only one recession being noted, the rate in 1922 being lower than the rate in 1921.

While the rate of wages has been increasing, the hours of labor have been almost as steadily decreasing, although at a smaller rate of change.

To set forth more clearly the extent of change in the grand average of union rate of wages per hour from year to year Table 6 is presented. This table shows the per cent of change in the rate per hour in May of one year over the rate per hour in May of the preceding year.

Certain other trades and trade groups not included in this report have been carried by the bureau in the union wage reports in preceding years. A list of these trades and the bulletins in which they appear are stated in Bulletin 404, page 57.

The asterisks in the preceding list indicate cities added since the first report. In Table A, page 78, data for each of the cities are given for each trade in which a scale was in effect.


EXPLANATION OF TERMS AND METHODS

A union scale, as the term is here used, is a statement, either written or definitely understood, of wages and hours of labor agreed to or accepted by an organization of union men and an employer or group of employers, under which agreement, expressed or implied, union men actually work. A union scale usually fixes the limit in only one direction. It sets a minimum wage and a maximum of hours for a regular day’s work. This report shows such minimum wage and maximum hours as are established by the agreed to or accepted scale. In certain cities and trades, however, some workmen, and in some few instances all or nearly all workmen, actually are paid more than the scale, and in some instances employees work fewer hours than the scale calls for. As a general rule, however, the union scale represents the prevailing wage of a locality.

In cases where bonuses are definitely reported in one fixed amount and apparently are to remain in effect indefinitely, such bonuses have been combined with the regular rate.

The observance of Labor Day as a holiday is so general and the fact is so widely understood that it has been deemed unnecessary to refer to the many agreements which prohibit the performance of ordinary work on that day. However, in instances where the prohibition of work has been extended to other days or parts of days, such as July 4 and Saturday afternoon, and also includes Labor Day, the conditions are stated in footnotes.

In the newspaper printing trades, compositor and machine operator agreements are found in certain cities in which there are stated maximum hours that may not be exceeded except by payment of an overtime rate, and a minimum of hours for which work must be provided or payment made if a man undertakes a day’s work. When such contract exists there may be further a commonly accepted working time, within the limits provided, so well established that such time is in effect the standard working-day. In such instances the tabulation shows such actual working hours, and notes state the maximum and minimum hours.

No scale for any trade is published here unless it was so well established that at least 50 per cent of the members of the union were receiving the scale or above it. Information obtained on this question indicates that an insignificant number of union members were working for less than the scale, while a considerable number were receiving more than the scale. Some trades were not organized in certain cities, and some were organized only in part. When organized in part, with a scale in force for such men as were organized, the scale is published.

The union scales in this report are almost entirely time-rate scales. The only piece-rate scales shown are for lathers, and for machine operators in the printing trades, and one quotation for longshoremen and one for laundry workers. These occupations have simple units of payment which are commonly understood. Many trades work to a large extent on piece rates. Such rates are so great in number and the units of payment so variable that it is not practicable to quote them. And further, though the piece units were described in grSat detail, the amount of the workers’ time involved would be understood by few who were not acquainted with the industry.

74 UNION SCALE OF WAGES AND HOURS OF LABOR


The various scales agreed to by employers and trade-unions state wages for differing units of time. Some scales designate the rates of wages by the hour, others by the day, week, or month. The varying rates have been converted into common terms, and both hourly and weekly rates are shown.

General Table A (p. 78) shows the rates of wages per hour and the rates per full-time week, the rates for overtime, Sunday, and holiday work, the regular hours for a full day, for Saturday, and for a full week, the number of months in the year for which the agreement provided for a Saturday half holiday, and the per cent of members receiving more than scale and the amount or range received. Corresponding figures for 1926 are reproduced, in part, in this table.

Certain unions have agreements that Saturday or some other week day shall be a day of rest instead of Sunday. In such cases the provision for this day has been tabulated as equivalent to the usual Sunday provision. In other words, “ Sunday ” is considered as comprehensive enough to cover any fixed rest day. Likewise, if there is a short day in the week other than Saturday, it has been tabulated as equivalent to a Saturday provision.

Where two or more quotations of rates and hours are shown for the same occupation in the same city, such quotations represent two or more agreements between unions and employers, sometimes different unions, sometimes different employers, sometimes both. The letters A, B, C, etc., are used to designate different quotations, but have no other significance.

When for a period of three months or more of the year the number of hours differed from that shown for May, the difference has been noted in the table.

When a strike or lockout Was pending on May 15, the scale which was in effect before the strike or lockout began has been tabulated with a note, “ Old scale; strike pending.”

Most of the data for this report were obtained by special agents of the bureau through personal visits to business agents and secretaries of the respective trade-unions in th.e several cities. The State labor bureaus of Massachusetts, Ohio, and Pennsylvania, for their own purposes, collect union wage scales within their respective States. To avoid duplication of field work in these States, they have furnished such information as is necessary .to this compilation.

The Ohio and Pennsylvania data were collected entirely by personal visits of special agents of those States. The Massachusetts bureau collected its data in part by correspondence and in part by sending out special agents.

In the work of this bureau and of the three State bureaus named, wage scales, written agreements, and trade-union records were consulted wherever available. About 2,000 union representatives were visited.

Scales for apprentices are not shown, but scales for helpers in a number of trades are given. In some trades the work of helpers is performed in part by apprentices. Whenever it was found that the work of helpers is largely done by apprentices, the scales for such helpers have been omitted.

An inspection of the general table shows for some occupations a great variation in trade terms and classifications in the different cities. For example, bakers are classed in some cities as first hands,

EXPLANATION OF TERMS AND METHODS 75


second hands, and third hands; in other cities as mixers, benchmen, oven men, etc. The difference in occupation names makes a comparison between cities difficult. Inquiry has shown that the terms “ first hand,” “ second hand,” etc., do not cover identical work in the different cities where these# terms are used. Certain work may be considered first-hand work in one city and second-hand work in another city. Of necessity, this bureau has followed the terminology used in each city.

There are also great variations in classification and in the extent of subdivision of chauffeurs and teamsters and drivers, and of bookbinding and presswork occupations, making comparison of city with city quite difficult; and similar conditions, less in degree, are found in several other trades. Special rates for inconsequential groups within these occupations have been omitted in some cities.

As stated before, the average rates shown in preceding tables were obtained by multiplying the rate for each city by the number of union members, adding the products for all cities, and dividing the sum by the aggregate membership in all cities. The same method was used in computing average hours.

The averages are based on all data available each year. There may be an effective scale in a city one year and not in the next year. If there is no effective scale, the city does not enter into the average. A change in the average, therefore, is possible though there be no change in any of the other cities.

Further, there may be a change in the average when there is no change in the rate or hours for any city, all due to a change in the relative number of union members. If there is an increase in membership in high-rate cities and not in low-rate cities the average for the country is raised. Conversely, if increase of membership occurs in the low-rate rather than in the high-rate cities the average is lowered.

A few changes in the large widespread trades may cause but little change in the average, while a few changes in a trade limited as to cities or as to membership may materially affect the average.

Index numbers are computed to make comparisons easier as between years. They are only percentages which show the increase or decrease in all other years as compared with one year selected as the base. In most of the tables 1913 is taken as the base. In other tables 1907, the first year of this series of reports, is taken as the base.

The index numbers for rates have been obtained by computing ratios from the rates for each two successive years and, beginning with the base year, compounding the ratios each year. The ratio of the 1914 rate to the 1913 rate is the index number for 1914. The index number for 1914 thus found, multiplied by the ratio of 1915 to 1914, gives the index number for 1915, etc.

In the earlier years the ratio was based on the average as computed from identical unions that reported for both years, old quotations dropping out and new quotations coming in being omitted from the average. In the later years the averages are based on all data received each year.

The same method was used in computing index numbers of hours and of wages per full-time week.

In computing the general index number when an industry is added or omitted the ratio is based on the data for identical industries. Here it is not a question of a trade or an industry coming into or

7 6 UNION SCALES OF WAGES AND HOURS OF LABOR


EXPLANATION OF TEEMS AND METHODS 77passing out of existence, but a question of discontinuing or taking on an industry that is in existence. To illustrate, the metal industry and the millwork industry were omitted in 1925 and have been since, as it was known that more representative data for these two industries could be obtained from establishment pay rolls. These trades were covered in 1924 and earlier years and entered into the general index for all trades in those years. Before computing the general index for 1925 a new grand average was computed for all trade groups, with these trade groups omitted. Then the ratio between 1924 and 1925 for all the remaining trade groups combined was computed and the general index for 1924 was multiplied by this ratio to get the general index for 1925.

Caution should be used in considering these index numbers. The result obtained by a subtraction of index numbers does not represent the per cent of increase or decrease between the different years. For example, referring to page 14, the index number for rates of wages per week of bakers in 1907 was 85.1 as compared with 258.0 in 1927, making an increase of 172.9 points in the index number. One hundred and seventy-two and nine-tenths is 203.2 per cent of 85.1, thus making the increase in 1926 over 1907, 203.2 per cent, as shown in Table 3.
