Industry Wage Survey
Footwear, April 1962
Summary
Production workers in the footwear manufacturing industry averaged $1.64
an hour in April 1962, exclusive of premium pay for overtime and for work on
weekends, holidays, and late shifts. A fifth of the 182, 449 workers covered by
a Bureau of Labor Statistics survey1 earned between $1.15 and $1.20 an hour;
earnings of the remainder of the workers were widely dispersed, as would be
expected in an industry that is broadly distributed geographically, employs work­
ers with a variety of skills, and pays most of them on a piecework basis.
Pay levels varied from $1.79 an hour in New England to $1.41 in the
Southwest. Among nine product branches, nationwide average hourly earnings
ranged from $1.46 to $1.79. Earnings data were also tabulated by size of com ­
munity and plant employment, and for selected representative occupations.
Plants employing a substantial majority of the workers had work sched­
ules of 40 hours a week and provided at least 6 paid holidays a year, paid vaca­
tions, life insurance, and various types of health insurance benefits.
Industry Characteristics
In the first 11 months of 1962, the shoe manufacturing industry in the
United States produced nearly 577 million pairs of footwear, except rubber,2 about
5 percent above the corresponding 1961 period.
Shoes are produced in a wide variety of sizes, styles, and shapes, and
by many different methods of construction.3 Classification by type of shoe refers
basically to the means by which the outsole is attached to the remainder of the
shoe. Thus, shoes are designated as sewed, cemented, or nailed. Within these
groups there are distinctive methods such as Goodyear-welt, McKay-welt, and
stitchdown sewed shoes, and conventional-lasted and slip-lasted cemented shoes.
The major types of shoe construction, based on production-worker employment
in April 1962, were women's cement-process (conventional-lasted) and men's
Goodyear-welt dress shoes ( 79 , 000 and 36,000 workers, respectively). Among
seven other types for which separate data are presented in table 1, productionworker employment ranged from 3,300 in establishments making primarily men's
cement-process shoes to 10,700 in m isses' and children's cement-process
(conventional-lasted) shoes.

American Shoes are Made (United Shoe Machinery Corporation, I960).

Four regions together accounted for more than four-fifths of the work
force: New England, one-third; Middle Atlantic, one-fifth; Great Lakes, one-sixth;
and the Middle West, one-eighth.
The relative importance of the different types of shoes manufactured
differed among the regions. For example, plants manufacturing women’ s
cement-process (conventional-lasted) shoes accounted for more than half of the
workers in New England compared with slightly more than a third in the Middle
Atlantic and Great Lakes regions. Plants primarily manufacturing men's
Goodyear-welt dress shoes accounted for a fifth of the workers in New England
and more than a third in the Great Lakes region. Three-fifths of the women’ s
McKay shoe plant workers were in New England; half of the women's cementprocess (slip-lasted) shoe plant workers were in the Middle Atlantic region.
Slightly more than two-fifths of the workers were employed in metro­
politan areas4 in April 1962. The proportions differed, however, among the
major regions— approximately one-tenth in the Middle West, one-fourth in the
Great Lakes region, one-half in New England, and four-fifths in the Middle
Atlantic region. The proportions also differed by branch of industry.

Establishments employing 250 or more workers accounted for nearly
three-fourths of the workers in the study; approximately three-fifths in the Middle
Atlantic region, three-fourths in New England, four-fifths in the Great Lakes
and seven-eighths in the Middle West. The proportions of workers in these
larger factories also varied by branch of industry, as indicated in the tabulation
on the next page.

Establishments in which a majority of the workers were covered by terms
of labor-management agreements accounted for approximately half of the indus­
try's production workers. About seven-tenths in the Great Lakes and Middle
West regions, one-half in New England, and two-fifths of the workers in the
Middle Atlantic region were employed in plants with such contract coverage.
Nearly three-fifths of the workers in the women's cement-process (conventionallasted) and men's Goodyear-welt dress shoes branches of the industry were in
this category. Unionization was less prevalent in the women's McKay, m isses',
children's, and infants' stitchdown; and men's cement-process shoe factories than
in the other branches of the industry studied separately. The United Shoe Workers
of America and the Boot and Shoe Workers' Union (both AFL—CIO) are the two
major unions.
Nonaffiliated unions also have representation in the industry.
The making of a shoe involves the assembly of many separate parts
through a long series of carefully controlled, skillfully executed operations. The
types of occupations in shoe factories vary from those requiring a relatively short
period of training to highly skilled jobs involving the cutting and trimming of
leather parts. Women are commonly employed in stitching operations; men, in
the cutting and lasting operations and in plant maintenance work.
Incentive systems of wage payment (usuallybased on individual piecework)
applied to seven-tenths of the production workers. The proportions of incentive
workers ranged from nearly half in the Pacific region to approximately four-fifths
in the Great Lakes, Middle West, and Southwest. By major type of footwear
produced, the proportions ranged from about two-thirds in plants making m isses'
and children's Goodyear-welt and m isses', children's, and infants' stitchdown
shoes to slightly more than three-fourths in plants producing men's Goodyear-welt
work shoes, men's cement-process shoes, women's McKay (including Littleway)
shoes, and m isses' and children's cement-process shoes. Workers in most oc­
cupations for which separate data were obtained were generally paid incentive
rates. However, floor boys and girls, inspectors, janitors, and maintenance
mechanics were usually paid on a time basis.
Average Hourly Earnings
Straight-time hourly earnings of production workers in the footwear
manufacturing industry averaged $1.64 in April 1962 (table 1). The estimated
107, 146 women in the industry averaged $1.47, compared with $1.88 for the




4

75, 303 men. In the major regions of industry concentration (together accounting
for more than four-fifths of the work force) New England, Middle Atlantic, Great
Lakes, and Middle West, the earnings of all production workers averaged $1.79,
$1.57, $1.68, and $1.53 an hour, respectively. Among the areas for which data
are presented for selected branches of the industry, average hourly earnings of
production workers ranged from $1.51 in women's cement-process (conventionallasted) shoe plants in Missouri, except St. Louis, to $2.06 in the same branch
of the industry in Haverhill, Mass.
Nationwide, average earnings had increased about 12 percent (17 cents)
since April 1957, when the Bureau last made a comprehensive study of occupa­
tional earnings in the industry.5 During this period, the Federal minimum wage
was increased from $1 to $1.15 an hour (effective September 3, 1961). In April
1962, 20 percent of the workers were in the $1.15 to $1.20 earnings interval
(table 2);6 in April 1957, approximately the same proportion (19 percent) were
in the $1 to $1.05 interval. As indicated in the following tabulation, the degree
of clustering at or just above the Federal minimum wage in effect at the time
of the studies varied among regions.

The $1.15 to $1.20 earnings interval was the only one in which there
was a sizable concentration of workers in April 1962. A small number of work­
ers earned less than $1.15 an hour;7 three percent received $3 or more.
The
middle half of the workers had hourly earnings within a range of $1.24 to $1.88.
Men's earnings were more widely dispersed than women's earnings; the middle
half of their earnings ranged from $1.34 to $2.26 and $1.20 to $1.63, respec­
tively. The comparatively wide dispersion of earnings may be partially attrib­
utable to the wide geographical distribution of the industry, the variety of skill
and training requirements of the occupations, and the widespread use of incen­
tive wage payments.

5 See Wage Structure: Footwear Industry, April 1957 (BLS Report 133, 1958).
6 For ease of reading in this and subsequent discussions of tables, the
limits of the class (earnings) intervals are designated as $1. 15 to $ 1 .2 0 instead
of using the more precise terminology of $1.15 and under $1.20.
7 Under specified conditions, workers certified as learners or handicapped
workers may be paid less than the Federal legal minimum.




5

Among nine product groups for which separate data were tabulated, nation­
wide average hourly earnings ranged from $1.46 in plants primarily manufac­
turing women's cement-process (slip-lasted) shoes and in plants making m isse s',
children's, and infants' stitchdown shoes to $1.79 in m isses' and children's
Goodyear-welt shoe plants (tables 3 to 11). Workers in women's cement-process
(conventional-lasted) shoe plants averaged $1.68 an hour compared with $1.71 in
men's Goodyear-welt dress shoe plants.
Earnings relationships among the product groups differed by region.
For example, in New England, workers in plants using the cement-process
(conventional-lasted) method of producing women's shoes and those in plants
manufacturing m isses' and children's shoes by this method had approximately
the same average hourly earnings ($1.77 and $1.78, respectively). In the Great
Lakes region, average earnings for the former were 18 cents higher than the
average for the latter branch of the industry ($1.64 and $1.46, respectively).
Production workers' earnings also differed by plant size. In the New
England and Great Lakes regions, average hourly earnings were 7 cents higher
in establishments employing 250 or more workers than in smaller establishments
($1.81 and $1.74 and $1.69 and $1.62, respectively); and in the Middle West,
2 cents more ($1.54 and $1.52). In the, Middle Atlantic region, however, the
hourly average for the smaller establishment size group was 12 cents higher
than the larger establishment size average ($1.65 and $1.53). Nationwide, the
averages differed by 1 cent ($1.64 and $1.63), in favor of the larger plants.
Metropolitan area workers averaged 17 cents an hour more than those
in nonmetropolitan areas. The difference amounted to 21 cents in New England,
20 cents in the Middle West, 18 cents in the Great Lakes, and 13 cents in the
Middle Atlantic region. In the Border States, however, workers in nonmetro­
politan areas averaged 5 cents an hour more than those in metropolitan areas.
In considering the wage differences noted in the preceding paragraphs
and in the later discussion of occupational earnings, it must be emphasized that
it is not possible to isolate and measure the impact on wage levels of any one
of these factors.
To illustrate their interrelationship, slightly more than half
of the New England workers in establishments employing 250 or more workers
were in nonmetropolitan areas compared with a third in the smaller establish­
ments. Approximately three-fourths of the workers in both establishment-size
groups in the Great Lakes region were in nonmetropolitan areas. Two-fifths of
the workers in women's cement-process (conventional-lasted) shoe plants in New
England were in metropolitan area establishments with 250 or more workers.
The corresponding proportion in the Great Lakes region was one-eighth.

Occupational Earnings
Average hourly earnings of workers in selected occupations for the
major branches of the industry are presented in tables 12 through 41. The jobs
are grouped according to the general sequence of operations in the manufacture
of shoes.
The first of these operations, cutting shoe uppers and linings, is per­
formed by both hand and machine methods. Average earnings of machine cutters
(vamp and whole shoe)— predominantly men— ranged from $1.79 in m isses', chil­
dren's, and infants' stitchdown shoe plants and $1.83 in women's cement-process
(slip-lasted) shoe plants to $2.54 in the m isses'and children's Goodyear-welt branch
of the industry.




6

The fitting operations, assembling and stitching the upper leather parts
and the lining together to make a completed upper, were usually performed by
women. Fancy stitchers, who sew decorative designs on shoe uppers, were
numerically the most important occupation studied. Workers in this job had
average hourly earnings ranging from $1.43 in the m isses', children's, and
infants' stitchdown branch to $1.62 in the men's Goodyear-welt work shoe branch
of the industry. Average earnings of pasters, backers, or fitters ranged from
$ 1.27 to $ 1.45 an hour among the industry branches.
Lasting, one of the most important parts of the shoemaking process,
includes the drawing of the upper and lining over the last and attaching the insole.
Machine assemblers for pullover averaged from $1.46 to $2.18 an hour among
the industry branches; averages for pullover-machine operators in most branches
for which comparisons could be made were from 35 to 43 cents an hour higher.
Average earnings of heel-seat lasters and side lasters, machine ranged from
$1.60 to $2.01 and $1.57 to $2.43 an hour, respectively, among the industry
branches.
The method of attaching the outsole to the shoe, in the bottoming depart­
ment, differs by type of construction (e.g., Goodyear-welt or cement-process).
In the men's Goodyear-welt dress and work shoe branches of the industry,
Goodyear stitchers averaged $2.12 and $1.97 an hour, respectively. Sole attachers
in plants manufacturing women's cement-process shoes averaged $2.10 an hour
in the conventional-lasted branch compared with $1.62 for these workers in the
slip-lasted branch.
Occupational earnings data were tabulated by size of establishment and
size of community for the two largest branches of the industry: men's Goodyearwelt dress shoes and women's cement-process (conventional-lasted) shoes. In
both of these branches, occupational earnings were almost always higher in
metropolitan areas than in nonmetropolitan areas. (See tables 14 and 22.) In
the men's Goodyear-welt dress shoe branch, occupational earnings were usually
higher in plants with 250 or more employees than in the smaller plants; however,
there was a lack of any consistent pattern of wages in the other branch. (See
tables 13 and 21.) Tables 15 and 23 provide occupational earnings data in m et­
ropolitan and nonmetropolitan areas by establishment size.
Earnings of individuals performing similar tasks also varied within the
same industry branch and labor market. This was particularly evident for jobs
usually paid on an incentive basis. For example, hourly earnings of women
fancy stitchers in plants making men's Goodyear-welt dress shoes in the Brockton,
M ass., area ranged from less than $1.40 to more than $4.20 (table 16).
Establishment Practices and Supplementary Wage Provisions
Data were also obtained on certain establishment practices such as work
schedules, late-shift work and selected supplementary wage benefits including
paid holidays and vacations, health, insurance, and pension plans, and nonpro­
duction bonuses.
Scheduled Weekly Hours and Shift Practices. Work schedules of 40 hours
a week were in effect in establishments with 92 percent of the production workers
in April 1962 (table 42). The Southwest and Middle West were the only regions
shown in which less than nine-tenths of the workers were scheduled to work
4 0 -hour weeks. In the former region, almost one-fifth had weekly schedules of
45 hours; in the Middle West, about the same proportion had weekly schedules
of 32 hours. Second-shift operations accounted for less than 2 percent of the
workers (table 43); third-shift operations were almost nonexistent. Most secondshift workers were paid the same rates as day-shift workers.



7

Paid Holidays. Nine-tenths of the production workers were employed
in establishments which provided paid holidays.
Almost three-fourths of the
workers received 6 or more days annually. Six days a year was the most com ­
mon provision in all but two of the regions shown in table 44. In New England,
three-fifths received at least 7 days and in the Pacific region, almost nine-tenths
received 8 days. Holiday provisions differed among the areas for which data
were tabulated separately for selected branches of the industry.8 For example,
7 days were provided in all women's cement-process (conventional-lasted) shoe
plants in Auburn—Lewiston, Maine; and 6 days in this industry branch in St. Louis,
Mo.—111. Workers in m isses', children's, and infants' stitchdown shoes in New York
City received either 8 days or 8 days plus 1 half day. Holiday provisions for
office workers were generally more liberal than those for production workers.
Paid Vacations. Paid vacations after qualifying periods of service were
provided by nearly all establishments studied. Almost all production and office
workers were in establishments granting at least 1 week after 1 year of service
(table 45). After 5 years of service, nearly four-fifths of the production workers
and a slightly larger proportion of the office workers were eligible for 2 weeks.
Approximately a fourth of both plant and office workers were in establishments
providing 3 weeks' vacation after 15 years of service. Among the four major
regions, vacation provisions were generally similar for workers with less than
5 years' service. After longer periods of service, vacation provisions were
usually more liberal in the Great Lakes and Middle West. Two-thirds or more
of the production workers in these two regions were in establishments granting
3 weeks' vacation pay after 15 years of service; the proportions were about
5 percent in the New England and Middle Atlantic regions.
Although the most common vacation provisions among the areas for which
data are available for selected branches of the industry were 1 week after 1 year
and 2 weeks after 5 years of service, significant differences were recorded.
For example, in the women's cement-process (conventional-lasted) branch, slightly
more than a third of the production workers in Maine, except Auburn—Lewiston,
were in plants providing 2 weeks' vacation after 5 years' service, compared with
all workers in the plants studied in Haverhill. Provisions for 3 weeks' vacation
pay after 15 years' service were in effect in all plants studied in this branch of
the industry in St. Louis and in plants with two-thirds of the workers in the
remainder of Missouri. Such provisions were not common in other areas for
which data were tabulated separately, except in men's Goodyear-welt dress shoe
plants in Wisconsin.
Health, Insurance, and Pension Plans. Life, hospitalization, and sur­
gical insurance, for which employers paid at least part of the cost were avail­
able to four-fifths of both production and office worker groups (table 46). Approx­
imately two-thirds of the workers were in establishments providing sickness and
accident insurance and three-fifths in establishments providing medical insurance.
Regional variations differed by type of insurance. For example, the proportions
of production workers eligible for life insurance ranged from 59 percent in the
Southwest to 93 percent in the Middle West; for medical insurance, from 40 per­
cent in the Middle Atlantic to 90 percent in the Middle West.

Separate area reports which include supplementary benefits data, as well
as the wage information shown in tables 16, 17, 24—34, 39> and 41 are available
upon request.




8

Retirement pension benefits (other than those available under Federal
old-age, survivors', and disability insurance) were provided by establishments
employing two-fifths of the production workers. These establishments accounted
for three-fourths of the workers in the Great Lakes and Middle West and
seven-tenths in the Pacific region.
Nonproduction Bonuses. Nearly one-fifth of the production workers and
two-fifths of the office workers were in establishments which provided nonpro­
duction bonuses, usually at Christmas or yearend. These provisions were more
common in the Middle Atlantic and Southwest than in the other regions for which
data are shown in table 47.

Appendix A: Scope and Method of Survey
Scope of Survey
The survey included establishments primarily engaged in the production of boots and
shoes (except houseslippers and rubber footwear) designed primarily for street, work, play
or sportswear (industry 3141 as defined in the 1957 edition of the Standard Industrial C la ssi­
fication Manual, prepared by the U .S . Bureau of the Budget). Separate auxiliary units such
as central offices were excluded.
The establishments studied were selected from those employing 50 or more workers
at the time of reference of the data used in compiling the universe lists.
The number of establishments and workers actually studied by the Bureau, as well
as the number estimated to be within the scope of the survey during the payroll period studied,
are shown in the table on the following page.
Industry Branches
The classification of establishments by industry branch was determined on the basis
of the principal type of footwear manufactured. For example, if the value of an establish­
ment’s product was 60 percent women’s McKay shoes and 40 percent women’s cement-process
(conventional-lasted) shoes, all workers in that establishment were included in the women's
McKay shoe branch.
Method of Study
Data were obtained by personal visits of Bureau field economists under the direction
of the Bureau's Assistant Regional Directors for Wages and Industrial Relations. The survey
was conducted on a sample basis.
To obtain appropriate accuracy at minimum cost, a
greater proportion of large than of small establishments was studied.
In combining the
data, however, all establishments were given their appropriate weight.
All estimates are
presented, therefore, as relating to all establishments in the industry group, excluding only
those below the minimum size at the time of reference of the universe data.
Establishment Definition
An establishment, for purposes of this study, is defined as a single physical location
where industrial operations are performed.
An establishment is not necessarily identical
with the company, which may consist of one or more establishments.
Employment
The estimates of the number of workers within the scope of the study are intended
as a general guide to the size and composition of the labor force included in the survey.
The advance planning necessary to make a wage survey requires the use of lists of estab­
lishments assembled considerably in advance of the payroll period studied.
Production Workers
The term "production w o r k e r s," as used in this bulletin, includes working foremen
and all nonsupervisory workers engaged in nonoffice functions.
Administrative, executive,
professional, and technical personnel, and force-account construction employees who were
utilized as a separate work force on the firm 's own properties, were excluded.

Office Workers
The term "office w o r k e r s," as used in this bulletin, includes all nonsupervisory
office workers and excludes administrative, executive, professional, and technical employees.

Occupations Selected for Study
Occupational cla ssifica tio n was based on a uniform set of job descriptions designed
to take account of interestablishm ent and interarea variations in duties within the sam e job.
(See appendix B for these job d e sc r ip tio n s.) The occupations w ere chosen for their n um erical
im portance, their u sefulness in collective bargaining, or their rep resen tativeness of the
entire job scale in the industry.
W orking s u p e r v iso r s, appren tices, le a r n e r s , b eginn ers,
tra in e es, handicapped, p a r t-tim e , tem p orary, and probationary w orkers w ere not reported
in the data for selected occupations, but w ere included in the data for all production w o rk e rs.

W age Data
The wage inform ation relates to average stra ig h t-tim e hourly earnings, excluding
prem ium pay for overtim e and for work on weekends, h olid ays, and late sh ifts. Incentive p ay­
m en ts, such as those resulting from piecework or production bonus sy stem s and c o s t-o f-liv in g
bonuses, w ere included as part of the w o r k e r ’s regular pay; but nonproduction bonus p ay­
m e n ts, such as C h ristm as or yearend bon u ses, w ere excluded.
The hourly earnings of
salaried w orkers w ere obtained by dividing stra ig h t-tim e sa la ry by norm al rather than
actual h o u r s .9

Com parison with Other Statistics
The stra ig h t-tim e
hourly earnings presented in this bulletin differ in concept from
the g ross average hourly
earnings published in the B u reau's monthly hours
andearnings
s e r ie s .
Unlike the la tte r, the averages presented here exclude p rem ium pay for overtim e
and for
work on weekends, h olid ays, and late sh ifts, and w ere calculated fro m
theweighted
data by summing individual hourly earnings and dividing by the number of such individuals.
In the monthly s e r ie s , the sum of the m an-hou r totals reported by establishm ents in the
industry were divided into the reported p ayroll to ta ls. A ls o , m anufacturers of h ou seslip p ers
were included in the monthly s e r ie s , but excluded from this study.
Size of Community
Tabulations by size of com m unity pertain to m etropolitan and nonmetropolitan a r e a s .
The term "m etrop olitan a rea, " as used in this bulletin, re fe rs to the Standard M etropolitan
Statistical A reas as defined by the U. S. Bureau of the Budget.
Except in New England, a Standard M etropolitan S tatistical A rea is defined as a
county or group of contiguous counties which contains at lea st 1 city of 50, 000 or m ore
inhabitants. Contiguous counties to the one containing such a city are included in a Standard
M etropolitan S tatistical A re a if, according to certain c r ite r ia , they are e sse n tially m e tr o ­
politan in character and are so c ia lly and econom ically integrated with the central city.
In
New England, where the city and town are adm inistratively m o re important than the county,
they are the units used in defining Standard M etropolitan S tatistical A r e a s .

Establishm ent P ra ctices and Supplem entary W age P rovision s
Supplem entary benefits and p ractices w ere treated sta tistic a lly on the b asis that if
fo rm a l provisions for supplem entary benefits and p ractices w ere applicable to half or m ore
of the production w orkers in an establish m ent, the p ractices or benefits w ere considered
applicable to all such w o rk e rs.
S im ila rly , if fewer than half of the w orkers w ere c o v ­
ered, the practice or benefit was considered nonexistent in the establish m ent.
Because of
le n g th -o f-se r v ic e and other eligibility requirem en ts, the proportion of w orkers receiving
the benefits m ay be s m a lle r than estim ated . Because of rounding, sum s of individual item s
m ay not equal to ta ls.

9
Average hourly rates or earnings for each occupation or other group of w o rk e rs,
such as m en, wom en, or production w o rk e rs, w ere obtained by weighting each rate (or hourly
earnings) by the number of w orkers receiving the rate.

Paym ents not on a tim e basis w ere converted; for exam ple, a
payment of 2 percent of annual earnings was considered the equivalent of 1 w e e k ’s pay. The
periods of serv ice for which data are presented w ere selected as representative of the m ost

Plans that defer payments beyond 1 year were excluded.




Appendix B: Occupational Descriptions

The primary purpose of preparing job descriptions
for the Bureau's wage surveys is to assist its field staff
in classifying into appropriate occupations workers who
are employed under a variety of payroll titles and differ­
ent work arrangements from establishment to establishment
and from area to area. This permits the grouping of oc­
cupational wage rates representing comparable job content.
Because of this emphasis on interestablishment and interarea comparability of occupational content, the Bureau's
job descriptions may differ significantly from those in use
in individual establishments or those prepared for other
purposes. In applying these job descriptions, the Bureau's
field economists are instructed to exclude working super­
visors, apprentices, learners, beginners, trainees, handi­
capped, part-time, temporary, and probationary workers.

ASSEMBLER FOR PULLOVER, MACHINE
Prepares the upper for lasting by assembling the counter and upper and operating
a machine to tack the upper to the wooden last. Work involves: Placing counters on rack
of pan containing cement, lowering rack into pan to apply cement to counters; inserting
cemented counter between lining and upper at the heel; setting a piece of wax or tissue
paper next to lining to facilitate removal of last after completion of operations; placing upper
on last making certain that heel seam is in center of rear of last; setting last on a jack
and pushing jack into machine which automatically drives tacks through the upper into the
heel seat and heel seam.

BED-MACHINE OPERATOR
(Bed laster; bed-lasting-machine operator; heel and forepart laster)
Completes the operations of drawing the toe, or toe and heel, of the upper of a
shoe tightly over the last. Work involves: Setting shoe on machine with sole up, and manip­
ulating hand levers controlling a series of wipers (friction pullers) which draw the upper
over edge of insole at toe or toe and heel; holding upper in place with the wipers; securing
upper at the toe in one of the following ways: (1) McKay system— tacking upper, using
automatically-fed hand tacking device, the tacks remaining in the finished shoe. (2) Welt
system— passing a wire from an anchor tack, which he drives on one side of the shoe,
around the drawn-in upper at the toe, to the opposite side where he winds it around another
anchor tack, to hold upper in place until it is stitched to insole by a later operation; or
may staple upper instead of using above methods. (3) Cement system— wiping toe in place
and holding it with wiper; trimming off surplus toe box, lining and upper, by hand, close
to insole; applying cement to insole between lining and upper at toe and folding over lasting
allowance of upper and sticking it in insole. If the heel also is lasted in the process, an
automatically-fed hand tacking device is used to drive tacks through the upper at the heel.
BOTTOM FILLER
(Cushion cementer; insole filler)
Fills depression in forepart of shoe with composition paste of ground cork and
cement to form cushion for foot.
