Labor officials claimed the shorter work periods would create more jobs and increase industrial efficiency at the same time. In its public appeals in behalf of thy new objectives, however, the federation thought it wise to refrain from men- tioning directly either the five-day week or the six-hour day. Its resolutions spoke only of “shorter work days” and “ghorter work weeks.” The whole movement seems to have lagged during the past scveral years until the railroad brotherhoods came out with their new ‘“program” recently. ‘The rail workers took definite action at a meeting of their representatives in Chicago a few weeks back. At this meeting a committee was appointed to arrange a special conference of labor executives to consider plans for attain- ing the six-hour day. ‘The conference, attended by delegates from 21 railway labor organizations, met here the past week and adopted a formal program, calling not only for a six-hour day but also for a five-day weck “where feasible,” and for other means of relieving unemployment in the rail industry. The railroad employes and all other workers who aspire to shorter work periods must overcome Stiff opposition | from employers. The National Asso- ciation of Manufacturers objects stren- uously to a five-day week on the grounds that it would increase the cost of liv- ing. increase wages 15 per cent, decrease production, encourage luxury and idle- ness and curb individual ambition on the part of the employe. Judge Gary in commenting on Ford's action in 1926 said: “I don't think the workers would favor it unless they should receive the same compensation for the five-day week that they now receive for six days, and that the employer cannot afford to pay. The employer would have to carry the added expense to the purchaser and consumer, and they wouldn't stand for it, and ought not to be made to. “The five-day week is impractical in the steel business, and I don’t believe it is practicable in any other business. It is illogical to work only five days a week and get paid for six. The Com- mandment says, ‘Six days shalt thou “STEAMSHIPS.

'Tis said that, in case a Turco-Greco- ulgar: entente were consummated Turkey would apply for a_demission to the League of Nations. It's this wi you see, or so the long beards say: Hitherto Turkey has made a condition of her joining the League assurance of a permanent seat in the Council. She figures that, in case of realization of the projected entente, a Council seat would be assured one of its members, turn about. as in the case of the little entente. That would fairly satisfy Turkey.

FoA & LATIN AMERICA.—An authoritative scutce puts the total of “United States investment of all types in Latin Amer- ica” at about $5,500,000.000. Some nervousness is naturally felt here as to the ability of Latin America completely to maintain service of its great loan commitments through these troubled days. Our Commerce Department seems to share this nervousness. It was, I be- lieve, cold to the Sao Paulo 1930 coffee valorization loan (about $30,000,000 was floated in this country, but not easily), nor did it show enthusiasm toward 1928 Boiivian loan offering in this country of $23,000,000 nor toward a recent Uruguayan loan. sion_is on | w 0Sb and SOUTHAMERI CRUISES on the New DE LUXE MOTOR LINER GSHOIM (26,700 Tons) ‘couldn’t choose a more colorful cruise! it San Juan with its YU 8 bas may sium and two Gwimming Pools.
