Area Study
Maps Wage
Differences
College may seem all work and
no play at times, but it generally
pays off in the long run according
to a report on family income re-
leased by the Survey Research
Center.
The Detroit Area Study, asso-
ciated with the Survey Research
Center, shows that generally the
better-educated the family-head,
the higher the family income.
* * *
MORRIS AXELROD, Director of
the study points out, however,
this may be because higher in-
come families are more likely to
send their children to college than
lower income families.
Supported- by the Ford Foun-
dation, the Detroit Area Study
is a continuing research pro-
gram to uncover facts about the
social characteristics of the area
through the use of modern social
science methods.
During February and March,
1,253 families were interviewed,
with the family income study be-
ing only one of the many sta-
tistical reports compiled from in-
formation gathered in the inter-
views.
THE DETROIT Area Study re-
port also shows that the median.
Detroit family's income is $5,028,
a rise of 10 per cent from 1951.
Parallelling nationwide trends,
the rise indicated that Detroit
maintained its relatively high fam-
ily income.
Two or more working adults
in over 31 per cent of the fami-
lies may have something to do
with the high family income.
In fact, 46 per cent of all fam-
ilies with incomes of $5,000 and
up have more than' one adult
wage-earner, not taking into ac-
count those working who are un-
der 21.
* * *
MANAGERS, officials, and pro-
prietors show the highest median
income, th6 lowest being service
and unskilled workers. Skilled
workers receive higher pay than;
clerics and kindred workers and
professionals are second in fam-
ily income to the managerial
group.
Where the heads of families
'have reached the graying age,
incomes are considerably high-
er. However, after the age of
60, there is a sharp drop. -
A description of the Detroit
Arepa Study's program may be ob-
tained from its annual publication,
"A Social Profile of Detroit." The+
1953 addition will be issued this
summer.
SHAKESPEARE-ON-THE-AVON:
Canadian Festival Stars Guinness
Special To The Daily
STRATFORD, Ontario - Can-
ada's Stratford-on-the-Avon has
never had the theatrical activity
of its namesake across the At-
lantic.
Today, however, on the banks
of a rather muddy Avon, what
townspeople call "a modern Globe
Theater," has been erected in the
form of a huge tent, housing a
Shakespearean Festival scheduled
to run through Saturday, Aug-
ust 15.
A COMPANY of professional
Canadian actors have converged
upon this Pon-theatrical town,
bringing with them housing and
transportation problems as well
as a boom in the tourist trade.
Director Tyrone Guthrie of
the Old Vic Theater in London
is the guiding hand behind
"All's Well That Ends Well" and
"Richard III," staged on alter-
nate nights.
The slight bald comedian of
"Lavender Hill Mob" fame, Alec
Guinness has journeyed to this
railroad shop village of 18,000
people to play a controversial in-
terpretation of Richard III and
the King of France in "All's Well
That Ends Well."
IRENE WORTH, also of the Old
Vic, is Helena in the comedy and
Margaret in "Richard."
Critics and audiences seem to.
agree that the staging and cos-
tuming are compensation for
the heat and humidity inside
the tent.
Pomp and pageantry, a battle
with several dozen participants
and the elaborate costuming by
Tanya Moiseiwutsch convene on
a fixed wooden stage of several
planes and elevations which be-
comes dungeon, castle, tower or
battlefield for "Richard III" and
background for the company's
modern dress . version of "All's
Well That Ends Well."
Study Surveys
Stock Values 1
Once considered on a par with
gambling, the purchase of com-
mon stocks has "become an inte-
gral part of our economic life," a
University Business Study on
"Common Stock Values and
Yields" reveals.
Written by Prof. Wilford J. Eite-
man, of finance department, and
Frank P. Smith, director of the
Bureau of Business Research, the
report was published by the bu-
reau.
Main topic of the text is a study
of common stocks as long-term in-
vestments, with particular empha-
sis placed on yields.]
