SUMMARY.
This report contains the union scale of wages and hours of labor of
861,893 members of organized trades and occupations in 66 of the
principal cities of the United States as of May 15, 1922, and for ready
comparison the scales prevailing on May 15,1921, are shown in parallel
columns. For a list of the trades and occupations, see pages 5 to 7.
In all trades taken collectively the hourly wage rate on May 15,
1922, was 6 per cent lower than on May 15, 1921; 69 per cent higher
than in 1917; 93 per cent higher than in 1913; 104 per cent higher
than in 1910; and 115 per cent higher than in 1907.
Taken collectively, rates per week in 1922 were 5 per cent lower
than in 1921; 63 per cent higher than in 1917; 83 per cent higher than
in 1913; 92 per cent higher than in 1910; and 115 per cent higher
than in 1907.
In 1922 the regular hours of labor were at the same level as in 1921;
4 per cent lower than in 1917; 6 per cent lower than in 1913; 7 per
cent lower than in 1910; and 8 per cent lower than in 1907.
The weekly wage rates of the trade and occupation groups herein
reported show the following: Bakers’ wages in 1922 were 3 per cent
lower than in 1921; building-trades changes ranged from a decrease
of 17 per cent for hod carriers to an increase of 3 per cent for steam
fitters* helpers; chauffeurs and teamsters and drivers lost 4 per cent in
weekly rates; freight handlers show a loss of 11 per cent; granite
cutters lost 1 per cent, and stonecutters 4 per cent. Laundry workers
gained 2 per cent. Linemen lost 7 per cent. In the metal-trades
group, blacksmiths’ helpers’ wages stood unchanged while all other
occupations in the group lost from 2 per cent for metal polishers and
buffers to 13 per cent for sheet-metal workers’ helpers in railroad shops.
Millwork carpenters in 1922 lost 8 per cent in weekly rates as com­
pared with 1921; millwork painters (hardwood finishers) lost 1 per
cent, while glaziers in the millwork group gained 3 per cent. In book
and job printing the changes ranged from a decrease of 23 per cent
for* electrotypers, batterymen and builders, to an increase of 3 per
cent for electrotypers, finishers and molders. In newspaper printing
trades web pressmen on day work and stereotypers on night work
had no change; but all other occupations in the group had mcreases
ranging from 1 per cent for machinist operators on day work, web
iressmen on night work, and stereo typers on day work, to 6 per cent
or photo-engravers on night work. See pages 5 to 7 for per cent of
increase or decrease in each trade.

U N IO N SCALE OF WAGES AND HOURS OF LABOR, M AY 15, 1922.

The hours per week are stated in this report for 91 trades and occu­
pations or subdivisions and groups of trades and occupations. Of
this number 16 had a reduction, 21 had an increase, and' 54 had no
change in working hours between May 15, 1921, and May 15, 1922.
The foregoing statements, concerning changes in rates and hours
apply to the average for each trade or subdivision or group as a
whole. They must not be understood, however, as applying to each
and every local union in the trade*
The average money rates of wages per hour as of May 15, 1922 and
1921, for the country as a whole are given for each trade and for
trade groups in the following table. These averages were obtained
by mmtiplying each hourly rate by the number of members of an
occupation receiving that rate, then adding the products and the
number of members and dividing the aggregate wages by the aggre­
gate number of employees.

There are 5,667 wage quotations tabulated for 1922, of which 33
show no comparable data for 1921, either because there were no
effective union scales on May 15, 1921, or because the unions were not
then organized. Of the 5,634 wage quotations for which there are
comparable data for 1921, 2,760 had not changed during the year and
2,874 had changed in rates or hours or both of these items. There
are 2,461 instances of a reduction in hourly rates in 1922 as compared
with 1921, 2,502 instances of reduction in rates per week, and 88
instances of an increase in hours of labor. Of the 88 instances of
increase in hour^ of labor, 9 occurred in the building trades, 11
occurred with chauffeurs, teamsters, and drivers’ unions,* 25 with
freight handlers’ unions, 1 with linemen, 10 in metal-trades’ unions,
3 in millwork trades, 8 in book and job shops in the printing trades,
and 21 in the newspaper printing trades.
This is the eleventh bulletin published by the Bureau of Labor Sta­
tistics on the subject of union scales of wages and hours of labor.. A
list follows showing the serial number of union-wage reports, the
bulletin number, the date of the scales included, and the number of
cities reported.

The asterisks in the preceding list indicate the cities added since the
first report. Under each trade in Table A the cities appear in the
order as listed above.
A few trades not appearing in Bulletin No. 131 were added in
Bulletin No. 143. In Bulletin No. 171 the scope of the inquiry was
materially enlarged, four new groups of occupations being included:
Brewery and bottling-house workmen; chauffeurs, teamsters, and
drivers; freight handlers; and soft-drink establishment employees.
A few trades were added in Bulletin No. 194, a few in Bulletin
No. 214, and in Bulletin No. 245 four trades were included for the
first time— mosaic and terrazzo workers, ship carpenters, glaziers, and
photo-engravers. In Bulletin No. 259 the scales for brewery and
bottling-house workmen and soft-drink establishment employees
were discontinued and the scales for laundry workers, theatrical
employees, and waiters were included for the first time. Bulletins
No. 274 and No. 286 presented practically the same trades and occu­
pations as Bulletin No. 259. The scales for theatrical employees
and waiters were omitted from,, and linemen and street railway
motormen and conductors included in, Bulletin No. 302. This
report includes the trades and occupations that were shown in Bulletin
No. 302.
The several trades and occupations for which the union scales are
given in this bulletin are shown in the table next following.

The union scale, as the term is here used, is a statement, either
written or definitely understood, of wages and hours of labor agreed
to or accepted by an organization of union men and an employer or
group of employers, under which agreement, expressed or implied,
union men actually work. The union scale usually fixes the limit
in only one direction. It sets a minimum wage, and a maximum of
hours for a regular day’s work. This report shows such minimum
wage and maximum hours as are established by the agreed or accepted
scale. In certain cities and trades, however, some workmen*, and in
some few instances all or nearly all workmen, actually are paid more
than the scale, and in some instances employees work less than the
scale hours. As a general rule, however, the union scale represents
the prevailing wage of a locality for efficient labor.
In addition to ordinary increases in wages, a considerable number
of increases were reported in 1918 as war bonuses. Nearly all of
these, and some other bonuses, were in effect in 1919 and in 1920.
In 1921 some of the bonuses had been made a part of the regular
scale, some had been modified, and some were continued as emergency
or cost of living bonuses. In 1*922 cost of living bonuses were
carried in some agreements. In cases where bonuses were defi­
nitely reported in one fixed amount and were to remain in effect
indefinitely, such bonuses were combined with the regular rate. If
the increases were various or indefinite, or applied only to some indi­
viduals or to only a part of the union membership, the general rate
was entered in the table as the scale, and the bonuses mentioned in
footnotes.
In cases where the returns showed that a considerable percentage
of the membership received more than the scale, the facts, so far as




8

U NIO N SCALE OF WAGES AND HOURS OF LABOR, M A Y 15, 1922.

ascertainable, are stated in footnotes, which are generally selfexplanatory, such as “ more than half received more; amount not
reported,” “ nominal rate, all received more; average $35,” “ 25 per
cent received $4 more per week,” etc. No note is made where the
number who received the higher rate embraced less than 25 per Cent
of the membership of the union. Agreements, sometimes provide
that old or infirm men may work for less than the scale.
The observance of Labor Day as a holiday is so general and the
fact is so widely understood that it was deemed unnecessary to refer
to the many agreements which prohibit the performance of ordinary
work on that day. However, in instances where the prohibition of
work had been extended to other days or parts of days, such as July
4 and Saturday afternoon, and also included Labor Day, the condi­
tions have been stated in footnotes.
For railroad shop crafts, the rates included herein are the rates
awarded by the United States Railroad Labor Board. The unions
were represented at hearings held by the board, and rates are shown
only for places where union members were employed in railroad shops.
The tabulation shows the basic scales of the board’s award. In most
shops the scale is modified by allowances consisting of extra pay or
reduced hours for checking in and checking out, and for washing up
after the work day, or by bonuses for regularity of work. These
instances of minor variation froip the normal rate are so numerous
that in order to save space it was deemed advisable to tabulate only
the normal rate with this explanation, rather than tabulate the
various modifications with a multitude of explanatory notes.
In the book and job printing trades the 44-diour week controversy
in some instances developed the establishment of a 44-hour week
consisting of 5 days of 8 hours each, Monday to Friday, inclusive, and
4 hours on Saturday with a stand-off that members would work 4
additional hours on Saturday which would be overtime at a rate
agreed upon. Such instances are tabulated as a 44-hour week with
the overtime rate shown in the overtime column.
In the newspaper printing trades compositor and machine operator
agreements are found in certain cities in which there are maximum
hours stated that may not be exceeded except by payment of an over?
time rate, and a minimum of hours for which work must be provided
or payment made when a man undertakes a day’s work. When such
contract exists, there may be further a commonly accepted working
time, within the limits provided, so well established that such time
is in effect the standard working-day. Ip such instances the tabu­
lation shows such actual working hours, and notes state the maxi­
mum and minimum hours.
No scale for any trade is published here unless it was so far estab­
lished that at least 50 per cent of the members of the union were
receiving the scale or above it. Information obtained on this ques­
tion indicates that an insignificant number of union members were
working for less than the scale, while a considerable number were
receiving more than the scale. Some trades were not organized in
certain cities, and some were organized only in part. When organ­
ized in part, with a scale in force for such men as were organized, the
scale is published.
In some cases scales which were published in the 1921 bulletin had
not been extended or superseded on May 15, 1922, but still remained

as prevailing rates. Where rates are reported for such places notes
explain that they are prevailing rates, not union scales.
The union scales presented in this report are almost entirely timerate scales. Piece-rate scales are published only for lathers, and for
machine operators and for machinist operators in the printing trades.
These occupations have simple units oi payment which are commonly
understood. Some trades, especially the metal trades, work to a con­
siderable extent on piece rates. Such rates are so great in number
and the units of payment so variable that it is not practicable to quote
them. The earnings at piece rates usually exceed the full-time earn­
ings at the time rates o f the trade. For localities where piece rates
prevail almost exclusively and the time rate provided for in the
scale is only infrequently paid, such time rate has not been tabulated.
The scales agreed to by employers and trade-unions state wages for
different units of time. Some scales designate the rates of wages by
the hour, others by the day, week, or month. The varying rates have
been reduced to common terms and both hourly and weeMy rates are
shown.
The general table shows the rates of wages per hour and the rates
per week on full time, the rates for overtime, Sunday, and holiday
work, the regular hours for a full day, for Saturday, and for a full
week, and the number of months in the year for which the agreement
provided for a Saturday half holiday.
Certain unions have agreements for Saturday or some other day
off as a rest day rather than Sunday. In such cases the provision for
this day is tabulated as equivalent to the usual Sunday provision.
Likewise, if there is a short day in the week other than Saturday, it
is tabulated as equivalent to a Saturday provision. In other words,
Sunday is considered in the tabulation as comprehensive enough to
cover any fixed “ rest day” and the middle number in the statement
of hours applies to the short day, if any, in the week.
Where two or more quotations of rates and hours are shown for
the same occupation in the same city such quotations represent two
or more agreements between unions and employers, sometimes differ­
ent unions, sometimes different employers, sometimes both. The
letters A, B, C, etc., are used to designate different quotations but
have no other significance.
When for a period of more than three months of the year the num­
bers of hours differed from those shown for May, the difference has
been noted in the table.
When a strike or lockout was pending on May 15, the scale which
was in effect before the strike or lockout began has been tabulated
with a note “ old scale; strike pending.”
Nearly all the information here published was obtained by special
agents of this bureau in personal visits to business agents and secre­
taries of the respective trade-unions in the several cities. The State
labor bureaus of Massachusetts, Ohio, and Pennsylvania, for their
own purposes, collect union wage scales within their respective States.
To avoid duplication of field work in these States, the State and
Federal bureaus have cooperated.
In Pennsylvania agents of the State bureau worked with an agent
of this bureau and the data were obtained by personal visits to the
trade-unions. A copy of all data collected was returned both to the
State and Federal offices. The Ohio data were collected entirely by




10

U N IO N SCALE OF WAGES AND HOURS OF LABOR, M A Y 15, 1922.

the Ohio bureau by personal visits of special agents. The Massa­
chusetts bureau collected its data in part by correspondence and in
>art by sending out special agents. Both Massachusetts and Ohio
urnished copies of their data to this bureau.
In the work of this bureau and of the three State bureaus wage
scales, written agreements, and trade-union records were consulted
wherever available. The field work involved an interview with the
officials of about 2,200 local unions.
Scales for apprentices are not shown, but scales for helpers are
given in a number of trades. In some trades the work of helpers is
performed in part by apprentices. Whenever it is found that the
work of helpers is largely done by apprentices, the scales for such
helpers are omitted.
An inspection of the general table shows a great variation for some
occupations in trade terms and classifications in different cities. For
example, bakers in some cities are classed as first hands, second hands,
and third hands; in other cities as mixers, benchmen, oven men, etc.
The difference in occupation name makes a comparison between cities
difficult. Inquiry has shown that the terms first hand, second hand,
etc., do not cover identical work in different cities where these terms
are used. Certain work may be considered first-hand work in one
city and second-hand work in another city. Of necessity, this bureau
has followed the terminology of each city.
There are also great variations in classification and in the extent
of subdivision of chauffeurs, teamsters, and drivers, and of book­
binding and presswork occupations, making comparison of city with
city quite difficult; and similar conditions, less in degree, are found
in several other trades.
General Table A, pages 64 to 210, presents 5,667 wage quotations
for 1922, and shows 2,874 instances of changes in scales during the
year ending May 15, 1922, either as to wage rates or hours, or both,
out of a total of 5,634 scale statements in which there are compar­
able data. A table is here given summarizing these 2,874 changes as
they affected each of the three phases of the scale— wages per hour,
earnings per week, and hours per week. The changes in the small
number of piece-rate scales quoted in this report are included in this
table on the same basis as the time-rate scales.
With 2,461 instances of decreases in wages per hour as against only
366 increases, out of a total of 5,667 wage quotations, the reduction
of wage rates in 1922 became significant.

1 The hours per week were not reported in the 120 cases where changes in wages per hour were reported
for this group.
2 The earnings per week were not reported in these cases, but the wages per hour having changed it is
assumed that there was a corresponding Change in the earnings per week.
» Including 9 cases where changes in wages per hour but not in earnings per week were reported.
4Including 111 cases where changes in wages per hour but not in earnings per week were reported.

The foregoing table shows that of* the 108 changes reported in the
bakery trade scales, 12 effected an increase and 96 a decrease in wages,
per hour; 7 resulted in an increase and 97 in a decrease in earnings
er week, the increase in the hourly rate in 4 instances being offset
y a reduction in the number of hours worked; and 8 produced a
decrease and 100 no change in the number of hours per week. The
other items of the table are read indike manner.
Owing to shifting of trips and variation of hours in the operation
of street cars, the hours per week and rates per week of motormen
and conductors are omitted from this report. Of the 120 changes
reported in this group, 9 effected an increase and 111 a decrease in
rates per hour. For the purposes of this table it has been assumed
that a change in the hourly rates in the street railway group resulted
in a corresponding change in the weekly rates; therefore the changes
in weekly rates are tabulated as coincident with the changes in hourly
rates. No hours per week having been reported for these 120 cases,
they have not been included in the totals for that item.
Expressed in percentages of the total of 2,874 changes, 12.7 per

INDEX NUMBERS.
UNION SCALE OF W A G ES AND HOURS OF LABOR IN ALL CITIES.

A table of index numbers (percentages) has been computed to
show for all cities taken collectively the extent of the changes that
have occurred from year to year in the occupations included in this
report. To make it convenient to compare war and readjustment
conditions with conditions closely preceding the war it was deemed
desirable to use as the base, or 100, the figures for 1913. Occupations
for which the bureau has no figures as far back as 1913 are omitted
from the table, since the figures for 1913 are used as a base.
Referring to Table 3, which follows, it is seen that the average
rate of wages per week on full time for all bakers on May 15, 1922,
was 237 per cent of the average rate in 1913, or 137 per cent higher.
The rate in 1907 was 85 per cent of the rate in 1913, thus, from 1907
to 1922 the index number changed from 85 to 237. This explana­
tion will apply to all the years and all the index numbers in the table.
These index numbers are based on weighted averages and were
derived from the actual wages and hours in all the localities which
supplied data. In making the computations the actual wages and
hours of each trade in each city for 1922 were weighted (multiplied)
by the number of union members reported in the trade in the city
on May 15, 1922. The products for a trade for the several cities
were added together,producing aggregate wages andhoursforthe trade.
The aggregate wages and aggregate hours for each trade were then
divided by the total number of union members reported in the trade
to obtain the average for 1922. A computation was then made to
find the percentage of change between the 1922 average and the 1921
average, which was computed in the same way in 1921. This pervcentage was then applied to the index number as previously comput­
ed for the 1921 report, thus bringing down to 1922 the index number
for each trade or occupation.
It should be borne m mind that the index numbers in Table 3
are percentages, not actual hours or amounts of money. In study­
ing this table its three parts should be observed. Thus, referring
again to bakers for illustration, it is seen that the index number for
hours per week decreased from 111 in 1907 to 90 in 1922, and that the
index number for rate of wages per hour increased from 76 in 1907
to 267 in 1922. The reduction in hours partly offsets the increase of
wages per hour; thus the index number for rates of wages per week
increased from 85 in 1907 to 237 in 1922 as compared with 76 to 267,
the increase in the index number for rates of wages per hour.
Caution should be used in considering these index numbers. A
subtraction of index numbers does not represent the per cent of
increase or decrease between the different years. For example,
the index number for rates of wages per week of bakers in 1907 was 85,
as compared with 237 in 1922, making an increase of 152 points in the
index number. One hundred and fifty-two is 179 per cent of 85, thus
making the increase in 1922 over 1907, 179 per cent, as -shown in
Table 1, pages 5 to 7.

INDEX NUMBERS.
GENERAL IN DEX.

A table of index numbers is now presented iti which are combined
the data for all localities and for all occupations except street-railway
motormen and conductors, which are omitted because of incomplete
data, especially as to hours.
The data of preceding reports have been used so as to produce a
series of general index numbers from 1907 to 1922. The method of

In the preparation of the above index numbers of rates of wages
and of hours of labor the numbers were extended to two decimal
places for closer accuracy in computation, but in the tables published
the decimals of the indexes have been dropped, so that the indexes
appear as whole numbers.
An index number is, as before stated, a percentage computed from
the actual figures for each year compared with a base year. In
Table 4 the figures for 1913 are made the base, as was done in Table
3, pages 13 to 18, in order that later conditions may be compared
readily with conditions closely preceding the war.
As some readers may desire to start comparisons with the initial
year, a table of index numbers computed from the same basic figures
is given with 1907 taken as the base, or 100.

SCALE OF WAGES

HOOTS OF LABOR, M A Y 15, 1922.

U NIO N SCALE OF W AGES AN D HOURS OF LABOR FOR SELECTED TRADES
IN 13 CITIES.

Index numbers have also been prepared for each of 13 important
cities. In Table b the data for selected trades in each of these cities
have been consolidated in general index numbers from 1907 to 1922,
In Table 7 actual rates and hours and index numbers for rates and
hours are given through the same period of time for each of the
several trades consolidated in Table 6. The trades included in this
table number from 14 to 22 in the different cities. The figures for
preceding years are drawn from earlier bulletins. In these two tables
1907 is taken as the basis of comparison, or 100.

U NIO N SCALE OF WAGES AND HOURS OF LABOR, M A Y 15, 1922.

T a b l e A .— UNION SCALE OF WAGES AND HOURS OF LAB O R IN SPECI­

FIED TRA D E S, B Y CITIES, M AY 15, 1922, AND M AY 15, 1921.
BAK ERY TRADES.
BAKERS,
[In some instances the rate for overtime and for Sunday and holidays is indicated by figures closely fol­
lowed by the letter c, which means that the amount given is the rate in cents per hour. When two
entries are given for overtime rate the first represents an initial overtime and the second a further period
of overtime. When overtime work is prohibited it is indicated by “ Pro.” When two entries are given
for Sunday and holiday rate the first applies to Sunday and the second to holidays. When no statement
is given for 1921 there was no union, or if a union, no effective scale. The few cases in which the day
of rest is other than Sunday have been tabulated as Sunday, and those in which the short day is other
than Saturday have been tabulated as Saturday.]
