B—. GREEN SETS GOAL OF §3,5600 INCOME Labor Chief Outdoes Lewis in Proposing Minimum Wage. By the Associated Press. William Green, president of the American Federation of Labor, said last night every family should have an income of at least $3,600. This recalled that John L. Lewis, his arch-enemy in organized labor should be $2,500 a year. “Before industry can reach capacity production, every one who wishes to work must have employment and every family must have an income of at least $3,600,” Green said in a state- ment reviewing labor events of 1936. “Labor looks forward to the New Year with a renewed feeling of hope, inspiration and courage. It plans to drive definitely and unceasingly for the translation of the expressed wish of the people into effective action,” Green continued. “No one can mistake or misinterpret the. decision of the people of the United States in favor of social se- curity legislation, the advancement of human welfare and the wider distri- bution of the national income. “The year 1937, therefore, will re- cord in & very large measure the reali- gation of thee purpose of labor to se- cure higher wages, higher standards of life and living, sherter hours as a remedy for unemployment, an ac- celerated drive for the abolition of child labor and the enactment of so- cial justice legislation both by the Congress of the United States and by the State Legislatures.” “The growing acceptance of labor's right to organize” Green said, was the outstanding 1936 development in | 1abor history.

Lo "hildre Being electrical, the new instru-| fiections on the professor's glasses. | ment differs from others regularly used to accomplish the same purpose by pressure-recording of changes in the blood pressure, breathing and the like. It is the work of the psychological laboratory at Fordham University, New York. Rev. Walter G. Summers, 8. J., of the university’s department of psychology, describes it in the cur- rent bulletin of the American Asso- ciation of Jesult Scientists, published at Loyola College, Baltimore, Results Virtually Perfect. Pather Summers reported the ap- paratus, called a recording psycho- galvanometer, gave virtually perfect results in laboratory tests. Its ac- curacy in uncovering false statements by persons being questioned, he said, contrasted with much less favorable results obtained in simultaneous tests of another well-known type of guilt detector. He announced further it had been employed “in several instances of actual crime detection with invariable success,” but that before presenting “a final conclusion we should like to spread the study over a wide range of cases.” The subject to be tested is given two German silver contacts to hold in the palm of his hands. A simple electrical circuit is formed in his body and a more complex one in the instrument. As the subject is questioned the instrument records subtle variations in the electrical circuit. These are construed as denoting his emotional reactions in such a manner as to tell whether the person is lying or telling the truth in his answers. Results in Graph Form. The instrument records its results in graph form on a sheet of paper passing over a clock-driven cylinder. Father Summers said that in the proper interpretation of the chart thus made “it is important to note that * * * the sensitivity of the in- strument is only the starting point for accurate investigation. We con- stantly employ in this work all the experience that has mounted up in the course of the last four years.” “In our early investigations,” he explained, “we employed pressure and respiratory apparatus to discover that they were not adequate to record many important emotional changes which * * * were definitely recorded by electrical instrumentation.” | The reflections produced an hypnotic effect when the co-ed kept her eyes fixed on the glasses.
