+ slon of work into PRORATION OF PAY OFFERED AS RELIEF Thinois M;;facturers Con- sider Plan to Keep Maximum | Number of Workers. By the Associated Press. CHICAGO, September 19.—An em- ployment stabilization plan for pro- rating avallable pay rolls among all workers of a factory instead of retain- ing some at normal wages was being considered today by the Illinois Manu- | facturers’ Association. It was presented to the assoclation’s directors by George R. Meyercord, pres- ident of manufacturing concerns in Illinois, Michigan and other States. He said that after successfully experiment- | ing with it at the plant of the Hlskeme Corpornuon in Grlnd Rly\ds, MSch was confident it ct wide operation, p‘mvmlnl mon (-ctory employes and office workers employ- ment, although at lower pay, and mak- ing them certain of their jobs. Its adoption, he pointed out; would | hasten return ‘of normal business con- ditions, because it would put into cir- culation for purchase of necessities money that he sald was now hoarded | by employes who were being paid & normal wage at a time when nvtn: costs have been greatly reduced. “It is not fair,” he sald, “that some ‘workmen should be given full time em- ployment at normal pay, which at pres- < ent prices amounts to & raise, while others are starving.” In consonance with his plan, the di- rectors announced they have adopted a resolution calling on President Hoover, National Relief Director Walter S. Gif- ford and Gov. Louis L. Emmerson of Illinois to consider speeifying in con- tracts for public works projects a divi- shifts to provide em- ployment to the greatest number of ‘workmen possible, and thereby relieve unemployment and reduce the need for rellef work this Winter. “Two men and possibly three, instead of one, could be placed at work on a livable wage, for example, on the Chi- cago post office, where laborers under the new prevailing rate of wage law of the State would be 9715 cents an hour,” Meyercord said. “If the work were divided in that manner on projects let us say employing 1,000,000 men full time, another 1,000,000 would be re- moved from the unemployed class on a half-time basis.” He sald his plan consisted of deter- mining what was the percentage of pay- roll on production orders in formal times, and applying that percentags 1o orders on hand, at the end of every month for next month's ction, In that manner, he sald, it was de- led how much money was avali- able for payroll and that amount was prorated among all empl:fu Further adjustments were made with receipt of additional orders during the month. Similar wluflmenn were made, he the office Tremunerat employes were informed that tae, plan did not amount to a salary reduction bmunlhepaymmmunnw with an Science " Measles Is Found Related to Whooping Cough. eulesm pec! development, abstracts of the National Research Council.

The total num- ber of men expected to be employed is 300,000. An extraordinary scheme of financing is to be used by the Fascists to make possible this tremendously ambitious | program. Many of these works will be | paid for by means of “certificates of | payment,” government notes redeem- ‘able in between 15 and 50 years.
