The Central Employers’ Associa- tion of Denmark, in a recent let- ter to the Prime Minister pointed out that Danish wages had in- creased 160 per cent. while prices of essential commodities had ad- vanced by only 53 per cent. The employes asked, therefore, for a 20. per cent reduction in wages. In the budget debate in the Swedish Riksdag on unemployment relief projects calling for 160 mil- lion kronor, the opposition called the budget a “convulsive attempt to maintain the standard of liy- ing on a level not justified by the present economic crisls.” Unions Gain Strength Organization of labor, through trade unions, collective agreements and the like, has been one of the outstanding features of the socail development of the Scandinavian countries for two decades. Many of the A trade unions, through . self - administered unem- ployment insurance, and - effective boycotts, have achieved unusual independence. Reduced tion, and the economic crisis, how- ever, have accentuated the prob- lem of maintaining the well-being of workmen.

Many believe the problem of tax- es holds the key to most of the present troubles. The farmer, for instance, would come much nearer to recapturing his old place inthe economic scheme were it not for the one item of greatly increased land taxes. On top of the present increased federal income tax, 23 states and territories have imposed income levies of their own. There are hundreds of other duplications. Tt will be difficult to get through a program unscrambling all of this, but the possible benefits are so ap- parent as to make real effort worth while. —————— NEW SCIENCE Whimsical Spanish Satirist Writes on “Ca- ) cotologia SALAMANCA, Feb. 28—Miguel de Unamuno, rector of Salamanca university, whimsical essaylst, sat- irical orator and fiery independent thinker—in short, Spain’s George Bernard Shaw—has developed a science of his own. He calls it “Cacotologia,” a name of his own coinage, and has written la booklet on it. . It consists of folding strips of paper into the liknesses of birds and insects. The sage of Salamanca amuses himself between periods of concen- trated brain work by shaping paper turkeys, eagles, condors, ostriches, ducks, flies and mosquitoes. a destroyer.
