A Little Hard To Figure It's a little hard to figure at times: engineers are driving taxicabs because industry can't afford their $13,000 pay checks and firemen and garbage collectors are turning down $11,000 and $12,000 offers as "pennies." One union boss thought-the offer was so insulting he "wouldn't even present it to my men." This is in New York, of but similar wage negotiations are going on in many cities around the country. Construction for. Instance, are heading for pay levels that one expert estimates will hit $25,000 a year before too long. And what the hard hats are getting, everybody else wants. (Or else.) In Hartford, electricians now have a three-year package that ups Iheir wages to $12.70 an hour an 83 per cents boost.

In Kansas Cliy, construction ditch diggers and the man who waves the red flag on the ropd got a two-year jump to $9.17 an hour. That's a record- breaking 137 per cent boost. (Contrast note: white-collar workers earned an increase last year of 6.2 per cent, And the highest-paid executives in SO industries increased their earnings by 4.6 per cent.) New York City's offer to firemen included a 17.4 per cent increase, bringing them up to $12,850 over three years. Sanitation men would go up to by 1973. Both unions turned it down.

The head of the garbage collectors said he was "looking for bread, not a slice." Apparently, the kind of dough he's talking about has to rise a lot higher than that. Where it's going to come from is a mystery to almost: everybody.JMayor Lindsay has 'Tieen telling e.veryorSe who'll listen, that "Fun City" is teetering oh the verge of bankruptcy. And when he finally comes up with an offer that will keep the firemen and sanitation men happy, THEN he'll have to scrape' down a little deeper and keep his promise to offer "comparable" pay boosts to the policemen. (He already knows what will happen if he reneges on that deal.) Labor bosses will tell you these demands are not as outrageous as they might seem, that inflation -nibbles away at wages as fast as the unions can get them raised. And they might be right.

But you can't help wonder how some professional men (who don't always have unions HEARTS THE YEAR eigner Oscar de La Renla believes hearts are for more tban just Valentine's Day.

Two years ago, among those who were self-employed, dentists were averaging $17,541 architects $16,008 and engineers $13.628. And that was before the economy went into its nose dive. Most of them miss out on those fabulous fringe benefits, too. Last year these added up to a nice, round $97,000,000,000 and included everything from retirement payments and medical insurance to paid rest 1 periods, lunch periods, wash- up time, clothes-changing time and travel time. Plus that ever -important with-pay.

People who figure these things out keep telling us a college degree guarantees a man a lifetime income of $636,000. And maybe it does. But how can you convince a prospective engineer he's not wasting four years and $20,000 on college when he can pull down almost as much working the garbage detail? Or, if he's lucky enough to get into the longshoremen's union, he'll come under a guaranteed-wage fund that pays him close to $10,000 a year even if be goes near the dock and close to $20,000 if he does.
