The Minimum Wage Commission herewith respectfully submits the following report which contains an account of the investigations and proceedings conducted during the fiscal year ending November 30, 1920. Organization and Functions. Through the consolidation of State departments, December 1, 1919, the functions of the former Minimum Wage Commission were transferred to the three Associate Commissioners of the Department of Labor and Industries, who, when acting in minimum wage matters, are designated the Minimum Wage Commission. The work is conducted by the Division of Minimum Wage, and is under the immediate supervision of the Assistant Commissioner. The duties of the Commission, as in the past, cover four main lines of activity. These are the investigation of wage conditions in occupations where women are employed; the organization of wage boards to determine minimum rates for women and minors; the entering of decrees based upon the determinations of the boards; and the inspection of establishments covered by decrees to ascertain compliance with their provisions. Summary of the Work for 1920. In view of the work in progress at the time of reorganization, it was decided to complete the unfinished business before undertaking new activities. Consequently the major part of the work during the year just ended has consisted in carrying out this program. The wage boards which had been authorized have been convened, and the wage investigations planned have been conducted.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Minimum Wage: With Particular Reference to the Legislative Minimum Wage Under the Minnesota Statute of 1913 The preservation of the voluntary element, however, is the means through which are obviated many of the obstacles to the practical working of a compulsory minimum wage. Under the system of voluntary cooperation, employers cannot be driven out of business; neither will the prices of their products be increased so as to deprive the recipient of a minimum wage of its benefits; neither will the minimum wage tend so much to become the maximum wage. Under a system of cooperation, the necessary adjustments, more in accordance with the natural economic law, will be worked out, and thereby artificial and unfair discrimination between competitors in the same industry will tend to be obviated.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Compulsory Minimum Wage Scale: Resolved, That the Policy of Fixing Minimum Wage, Scales by State Board Is Desirable; Constructive and Rebuttal Speeches Such conditions are a disgrace to our nation, nevertheless they exist. As we stand in the midst of these deplorable conditions we cannot believe that the intelligence of this age will much longer turn a deaf ear to their pitiable cries. Such is the light in which the question we are discussing to-night must be considered. Our opponents will probably charge us with trying to trick you into sympathy with our cause, but such is not the case. It is able to stand or fall on its own merits. We picture these deplorable conditions only because they force themselves upon us by their immediate bearing upon the problem of wages, and also to Show that the cause of the sweating evil is the low wage. It is because Of these conditions that we the Affirmative propose Minimum Wage legislation. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Making Minimum Wage written by Helen J. Knowles and published by University of Oklahoma Press. This book was released on 2021-08-05 with total page 471 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The US Supreme Court’s 1937 decision in West Coast Hotel v. Parrish, upholding the constitutionality of Washington State’s minimum wage law for women, had monumental consequences for all American workers. It also marked a major shift in the Court’s response to President Franklin D. Roosevelt’s New Deal agenda. In Making Minimum Wage, Helen J. Knowles tells the human story behind this historic case. West Coast Hotel v. Parrish pitted a Washington State hotel against a chambermaid, Elsie Parrish, who claimed that she was owed the state’s minimum wage. The hotel argued that under the concept of “freedom of contract,” the US Constitution allowed it to pay its female workers whatever low wages they were willing to accept. Knowles unpacks the legal complexities of the case while telling the litigants’ stories. Drawing on archival and private materials, including the unpublished memoir of Elsie’s lawyer, C. B. Conner, Knowles exposes the profound courage and resolve of the former chambermaid. Her book reveals why Elsie—who, in her mid-thirties was already a grandmother—was fired from her job at the Cascadian Hotel in Wenatchee, and why she undertook the outsized risk of suing the hotel for back wages. Minimum wage laws are “not an academic question or even a legal one,” Elinore Morehouse Herrick, the New York director of the National Labor Relations Board, said in 1936. Rather, they are “a human problem.” A pioneering analysis that illuminates the life stories behind West Coast Hotel v. Parrish as well as the case’s impact on local, state, and national levels, Making Minimum Wage vividly demonstrates the fundamental truth of Morehouse Herrick’s statement.
