COMBINE IS URGED 10 STABILIZE 1083 Dr. Nicholas Murray Butier Suggests Union of Basic Industries. By the Associated Press. SOUTHAMPTON, N. Y. September 7.—Dr. Nicholas Murray Butler, presi- t of Columbia University, in an ad- dress last night suggested that a co bine of “several great basic industries” should be formed to stabilize employ- ment. Dr. Butler, speaking in the Parrish | Art Museum, declared the industries should be “so organized in the interest | of the general public as to control pro- duction within the limits of a proper | balance with an expanding power of consumption.” | Stability Practicable. He said it would then be practicable | “both to stabilize and to regularize em- | ployment” within the field of each one of a considerable number of large in- | dustries which are easily susceptible of regional or nation-wide organization, “The next step,” Dr. Butler said in elaborating upon the plan, “should be to make each one of these organized | industries feel responsible for the em- | ployment and eare of its great body of | workmen } m & new enterprise is under- taken and new capital sought, every | tion is given to studving the | production of the factory or mine or ol well in order that a satis- factory return upon the money invested may be assured “Why sh not an equal amount of to the problem of how v work people are statedly needed | nterprise and as to what pro- | vision can be made for their security | within the limits of the ordinary fluc- | tuation of the rise and fall of the pro- | duction of the business. Employed Care Policy. “Why should not the care and pro- tection of the employed be made as much a part of the policy of any great business undertaking as are the care| and protection of the money invested?” Dr. Butler spoke also on various forms of employment insurance which have been brought to the fore in the present economic depression and approved sug- gestions for a five-day week and even- tually a s hour day. LIGHTLESS DRIVER HELD | Science Dark Less Affected by Sun Tests on Indians Show, The darker the color of the skin, the | | Jess it is affected by sunlight. Tests with half-breed and full-blood- »d Indians show convincingly that the greater the amount of black and red in untanned skin, the less 1is the change in color from exposure, Dr. Forest Clements, of the University of Oklahoma, reports in the Journal of Physical Anthropology. The heavier plgment, he holds, serves as & partial insulation from sun rays. This may explain. he holds, why Negro and Italian children have been found more subject to rickets than those of lighter races, even when the diet and environment are essentially the same. The pigment produced by exposure probably differs from that in unexposed skin and forms a storehouse for the antirachitic vitamin. Darker skins do not let the beneficlal rays through. Clements found, however, that red skin changes less than black from ex- posure. T. R. H.

F. Wesely, chief of the Research Department of Manhat- tan Laundry, Mr. Wesely attributes a large part of the Manhattan Laundry's success to their Net Bag System of washing. Manhattan Laundry adopted the Net Bag for washing clothes six rears ago. Clothes, they agreed, could be washed just as clean in net bags and would wear longer if rubbing and serubbing were eliminat Manhattan's famous Net Bag Sys- tem of washing, as described by Mr. Wesely, follows: First, the are assorted according to their color and material and placed in individual net bags which bear the customer’s name and contain only that eustomer's ar- ticles. Safe in the mets and protected from all metal or other hard surfaces, the clothes go into the waslers. Here they are subjected to the gentle cleanse ing action of swirling hot suds which penetrate each garment and loosen every particle of dirt. Only the purest of Palm Oil soaps and soft, filtered water are used, after first having been inspected and tested by the Research Department. Many rinsings of fresh, clear water follow, removing every trace of dirt from the clothes and leaving the fabrics refreshed and clean.
