{Wages fund} (Polit. Econ.), the aggregate capital existing
at any time in any country, which theoretically is

depended upon the relation of the wages fund to the number
of laborers. This theory has been greatly modified by the
discovery of other conditions affecting wages, which it
does not take into account. --Encyc. Brit.
