Professor Bangs and the wage of disagreeable work
A professor experiments with housework pay after hiring a houseworker by piece rate. He calculates wages at fifteen cents per window wash and five cents per small rug beat, earning about 1.50 in an hour. The incident prompts reflections on labor value, class, and fair pay, challenging the idea of a universal wage for “agreeable” vs “disagreeable” tasks.

Calder proposes home loan banks to ease housing shortage
Senator Calder of New York pushes a bill to create a national home loan banking system modeled on the federal reserve. The plan would have home loan associations join a trading home loan bank, mortgage 60 percent of value at 6 percent, and fund housing with real estate mortgages valued over two billion dollars. He hopes it will ease the housing shortage though doubts action in Congress persist. He also backs a real estate mortgage tax exemption up to 40 000 to attract capital to building, despite objections to exempted securities.
