The fund, had accrued from war and post-war proñia en manufactured jote, hides iron and steel, cotton yarn and piece goods, paper, building materials, engineer- Ing processes, and so forth. Calcutta had to excess profits tax until after the struggle was over. Those who could not, er did not take any part in the fighting made the most of their opportunity.
The most interesting result has been an extraordinary boom in cóm- pany promotion, the Stock Exchange- list of miscellaneous industrial acti- vities, comprising everything from soap and biscuits to locomotive and steel rail factories, has expanded from some 30 to some 200. At the same time, a large amount of new capital has gune back into the older activities. jute, coal, and cotton Yet- arother factor in the дек industrial boom has been the appearance in Calcutta of some of the leading British firms, driven to seek not merely new markets, but new manufacturing centres for their processes by the high costs of pro- duction at home.

PULF RESOURCES. Messrs. Thomas Nelson and Sore and the chief proprietor of one of the leading London newspapers are in the field in the hope of ex ploiting India's pulp resources. A large combine of leading steel-pro- ducing firms of the United Kingdom is bully acquiring sites on the Hooghly for the manufacture of heavy engineering plant, and, ulti- mately, it is said, for the purposes of shipbuilding.

THE VAGARIES OF WAGES.
At the recent bearing of the Indus trial Court of the claim by the engř neering and shipbuilding trades ions for increases in wages, a con- siderzble portion of the evidence brought by the workers' leaders was by way of comparisons between the earnings of various classes of skilled men both within and without the engineering and shipbuilding trades. The earnings of the average engineer were compared with those men who have charge of rolling mills in steel works, with London omnibus drivers, and with others, and it was urged that, relatively, the engineer as regards wages, was in a most un- favourable position.
+
Supposing that this type of argu- ment is carried to its logical con- clusion, it is interesting to reflect how far it leads. Take the steel worker is an example. It is well- known that the wages at present being paid to workers in charge of processes in steel works may reach the figure of 304. per week; in fact, recently in a number of Sheffeld steel works managers pointed out to their directors that they were earning less than may "of the men under their charge. It is a well-known fact that on piece work it is not uncom- mon for the workers to be receiving more -money than the head foreman in charge of the whole shop, who sometimes is in receipt of more than the manager. above him. That this in illogical and offers little inducement to men to gam advancement must, of course, be granted. The wage disparity la-
