THE PLUTOCRATS OF LABOUR,
BOATMAN'S EXTRAORDINARY
EARNINGS.
A Cardiff dock boatman bas boasted that one morning he earned vessels in the Cardiff docks. It is £20 before breakfast by shifting known generally that the dock pilots, licensed riggers and boatmen of the Bristol Channel ports have for some time past been earning unusually high money owing, not only to their enhanced charges and high war | bonuses, but also to the fact that oft times three" moves" are charged where only one was charged in pre- war times. Some of the bills pre- sented to shipowners have been colossal, and the remuneration of a "dock" pilot can now be said to be much higher than that of a deep sea pilot" who has been compelled to serve a strict apprenticeship and to secure his "ticket. These workers during the course of the day may work for a number of firms, and there. fore it is most difficult to assess their weekly earnings. It is understood that is not improbable that the income tax authorities will insist upon all shipowners, and brokers sending in the accounts they have paid, so that The Chinese restaurant keeper of individual assessment will be made.
