The figures in the above table are self-explanatory and do not call for any eomment. If the main tables are considered from the view- point of workers in all departments it will be seen that the point of greatest density for male operatives is in the group Rs. 24 to Rs. 26. The modal average works out at about Rs. 25. The number of male workers who earned between Rs, 22 and Rs. 30 amounted to 12,507 or about 33 per cent. of the number returned whereas the number who earned over Rs. 50 per month amounted to 7,471 or 19-47 per cent. of the total number of men returned. The mode in the case of women workers lies in the group Rs. 18 to Rs. 20 and the modal average works out at inside of Rs 19. The number of women who earned between Rs. 16 and Rs. 22 amounted to 5,016 or over 40 per cent. of the total number of women returned. 306 or only 2:52 per cent. sarned over Rs. 30 per month. With regard to all workers, both male and female, in Bombay, the position of greatest density again lies in the same group as for men; viz., Rs. 24 to RBs. 26 and the modal average is also very near to that for men alone and amounts to about Rs. 25. It does not appear to be necessary to burden this section with numbers of workers in different groups and the percentages which they bear to the totals returned. This could be done ad infinitum and anybody interested in ascertaining the frequency for any particular group could easily do so by summing the respective figures required from the main tables. (2) Ahmedabad 131. Tt will have been noticed that a departure has been made in the manner of presenting the results for frequencies of earnings from the method followed in the earlier sections of this Chapter where the figures for average earnings for each of the occupations dealt with in each of the three centres covered by the Enquiry were given side by side in a comparative form. This was due to the impracticability of compiling frequency tables for Ahmedabad on the basis of monthly earnings owing to reasons already dealt with. The frequency tables for Ahmedabad have, therefore, been framed on the basis of dailv earnings. Four separate tables have been prepared :
