The working hours in several de- sartments of the Trumbull Electric Manutacturing company are being in- creased and the outlook is promising for a general picking up of work throughout the whole plant. * One de- partment has been increased from hours a week to 50 hours. A reduc- tion in the pay of day, workers, how- ever, has been made. The reductions havé been made separate and each worker has had an individual cut ac: cording to the amount of pay received. However. the increase in ~working hours makes up this deficit and with better times coming, there is a gen- eral feeling of content among the workers throughout the entire com- munity where factorses are following this method of reducing the pay and extending the working schedule. . The officials of the Trumbull plant are looking forward. to a promising. fall business. To Attend Convention. Rev. E. F. Barrows, pastor of the A. M. E.
