Much new light on the work of run- ning to earth enemy interests in the United States was given by the attor- ney who was alien property custodian before he entered the cabinet. He re- counted how it was discovered that 18 German-owned insurance companies and the big Orenstein-Arthur Koppel manufacturing inside rail- roads, in that plans of the factories of the firms with which they did business including U. S. Steel, Bethlehem, Midvale and Carnegie, should be furnished so that the blue- prints might be sent to the home of- fice in Berlin. “I am not a suspicious person,” Mr. Palmer said, “but when I discovered that our great munition plants were being blown up and that the bombs were always planned in the most vul- nerable spot in a mill by somebody who knew every foot of the plans of those mills, T began to wonder wheth- er there was any connection between those circumstances. It is still one of the unsolved riddles of the war.” Mr. Palmer said the Orenstein Co. asked Ambassador von Bernstorff to intercede with Berlin to allow them to take a contract from the Russian gov- ernment because they could help win the war for Germany by failing to de- liver the goods. dump cars, TRAINED FOREMEN INDUSTRY’S NEED Department of Labor Finds Shortage of Men to Supervise Important Jobs. Washington, D. C., May 29—One of the most urgent industrial needs of the country at the present time is properly trained foremen, according to officials of the department of la- bor, representing the United States training service. These experts have been making a nation-wide study of industrial conditions and maintain that the keen foreign competition this country is soon to meet demands more efficient industrial management than obtained before the war. Al- ready England and France and others of the Allies are straining every nerve to re-establish themselves in the mar- kets of the world. In the past American industry has been handi- capped by the fact that the rank and file of its workers have not had op- portunity for adequate training in their respective tasks. The only prac- tical’ way of lifting this bruden on industry, according to the United States training service, is to establish training departments in the majority of the manufacturing plants of the |Government Warns, Against Over Enthusiasm | — | Sape-Allen & Co.

The wool market was strong with prices in favor of the seller. Large orders have been placed for yarns and finished goods and wealen and worsted mills are going back to full time. These conditions are reflected in the demand for dry goods and shoes. Shoe prices are being marked up for fall delivery, the outlook being for an increase of 25 to 50 cents a pair for retailers.

LIVERY whom first consideration should be given, it is said. Inquiries from lead- ing manufacturers show that thera is a distinct trend in favor of re. lieving foremen of many of their secondary dutie in order that they may concentrate their attention on their principal task, which is pro. duction. “Breaking in” new workers has been one of the many jobs of the average foreman. According to the newer standards this should be dele- gated to a training department, or in the absence of such a feature, to some especially qualified fellow work- er. Because of the general demand for a better understanding of foreman- ship, a staff of widely experienced production men employed by the United States training service is en- gaged in preparing a hook on the sub- ject. The result of its combined ef- forts promises to be a valuable trea- tise on the duties of the foreman. It is intended for the instruction of voung men who wish to prepare themselves to he foremen, as well as for men alrcady experienced in this line of work.
