EARNINGS WEEKLY EARNINGS The June pay period which was chosen for study proved to be a nearly normal period in the hosiery industry for the year. The figures on weekly earnings as presented in this study, therefore, represent an average week’s earnings for men and women in the hosiery industry in 1928. Weekly earnings of all workers The earnings of both men and women were higher in the full-fash- ioned than in the seamless hosiery industry. In the full-fashioned hosiery industry a little more than one-half of the men and less than one-fifth of the women had weekly earnings of $30 or more. In the same industry 27 per cent of the men and 47 per cent of the women sarned less than $20 a week. In the seamless hosiery industry 40 per cent of the men earned $30 or more and 34 per cent earned less than $20. Only one per cent of the women in the seamless hosiery industry earned as much as $30 a week and 34 per cent earned less than $10 (Chart 7). Men’s median weekly earnings of $32.49 in the full- fashioned hosiery industry were nearly $12 higher than the median earnings for women in the same industry. In the seamless hosiery industry men’s median earnings of $25.99 were nearly $14 higher than the women’s (Table 14). Chart 7. Weekly Earnings of Men and Women FULL FASHIONED HOSIERY Number Mer?
