OULAHAN
A few days ago the president of the
United States took tin^ off-from his
arduous duties to attend the fui^ral
tT)f a“ newspaper feporteh A hundred
or more of the highest officials in
Washington, members of the cabinet,
foreign diplomats, joined Mr. and
Mrs. Hoover in paying a last trihutt
of respect^io the memory of Richard
Victor Oull^n, I think it is the only
oceaiiion on wl ich a simple’
of the news hat been so ho tf-cjd.
Dick Oulahan could have held al
most any public' office he might Jia\ e
aspired lo, he could have been editor-
in-chief of almost any great news
paper. but he preferred ta^remain a
reporter in the city of his birth, writ
ing every day for the New York
Tinies the news of Washington so
truthfully and in such a dignified
mannePthat he won the respect of ev-
(erybody in public life, while his per-
i sonal charm and character madj pres-
! idents and ambassadors his per-sona!
W.XGES
! The inttrnational labor office of the
j League of Nations set out to com-
I pare “real wages” in European indus-
1 li;y with'. American wag^s. ‘‘Real
jwages” means chq actual purchasing
'power of the \yorkers’ earnings in
terms of commodities. As was expect
ed., the investigators report that liv
ing costs in European cities are ex
cessively high xnd that few European
workers are a^^to buy more than
the bare necessltias of life even irt
the best of times.
If this investigation results in in
creasing wages and giving overseas
workers a greater purchasing paw'd
it will help a lot tiiward restoj-ing ec
onomic prosperity in Europe, and that
will help all the rejt of the word.
to a popular referendum. It takes 218
