The idea of the music is chiefly to relieve the boredom of workers engaged in menotonous | tasks eight hours a day. But it seems possible that in relieving fatigue |due to boredom, the music might also be curing \almhmmn due to boredom. Factory records might show, for instance, that there was less intoxication | afters music was introduced—and they might show, just pessibly, a relation between the kind of music | played and the amount of drunkenness.

NATIONAL ISSUES: The proo-| lem of equalizing the burdens of war will be discussed by statesmen.
