During the last election he headed the second ward ticket as candidate for alderman and brought the regular G. O. P. majority to the lowest point it reached in many years. He was one of Mayor A, M. Paoncssa’s staff of campaign speakers and upon the mayor's election, Casale was named a member of the board of charitles. The attorney has from time to time | expreased himeclf in strong terms on the frequenting statute as it now stands on the books and he recently publicly challenged a local agency to show wherein conviction for violation of the dry law warranted disenfran- chisement, submitting a late decision of the supreme court. As regards the frequenting la the attroney feels there is 100 great a chance of abuse | in permitting the agrest and convic- tion of persons found in establish- ments reputed to be places where li- quor is sold or kept for sale.

The partial elimination of the twelve-hour work- ing day in the steel Industry has brought results so generally satisfac- tory that neither manuf: employes in the arcas considr a return to the longer hours prevailing prior to August 16, 19 Nevertheless, a large proportion of the men engaged upon basic steel pro- cesses still work more than ten hours |a day, while the eight-hour men gen- erally work seven days a week, said a survey of steel labor conditions by 3. Adele Shaw, made public today by the Cabot Fund. This fund has fi- ranced numerous independent re- searches in industrial problems, no- tably Prof. H. B. Drury's study of the twelve-hour day in steel made in 1920, The saven-day week in mills where continuous operation is the rule, which was partly eliminated during the depression of 1921, was re-estab- Jighed in 1022 and perhaps extended when the eight-hour day replaced the twelve-hour day in many of these works, the report asserted. More- over, there are many companics that in May, 1924, had failed to do away with the twelve-hour shift; independ- ents had not made the change in enst- ern Pennsylvania and the Birming- ham district independents had not completely installed the eight-hour day, said the report. Emphasizing the fact that the in- dustry “has by no means gone to an cight-hour day and a six-day week,” the survey quotes compilations of the federal department of labor for the pay period January 16 to 31, to the effect that on blast furnaces less than cight per cent of the men work 48 hours or less a week, slx per cent 60 hours. In the open hearth de: ments, according to the' same author- ity, only four per cent work 48 hours converters more than half the men work 48 hours a week. As to increases in labor required, steel executives were unwilling to give specific figures on the ground that the data covered too short a period to be conclusive; but the report submitted varlous facts indicating that the in- crease fn productlon cost as a result of the reduction in working hours would he relativel ysmall, In the rolling mills, where t¢ n-hour shifts superseded twelve-hour shifts, with payment on a tonnage basis, there has been no increase in the number of employes, the same output heing obtained from 20 hours' labor from 24 hours' labor when the men worked 12 hours.
