Shorter Hours, Better Results.

Now, the case with regard to short
hours is very much the same as with
regard to good wages. There are still
some here and there who seem to believe
in the old maxim of Richelieu that
workingmen are to be compared with
mules, who are less spoiled by work
than by repose; but, on the whole, the
beneficial effect of reasonable repose is
now generally admitted, and nobody
would think it wise or profitable to re-
turn to the very long hours of the early
part of the century. And here, again,
what is good for one nation has proved
good for others. All have alike bene-
flied in productive capacity by abandon
ing long hours Of labor.
When Mr.. Scott, the eminent Green
ock shipbuiIder, opened yard in
France, he reduced the hours of the
French shipwrights from 12 to 10 and
says he found it advantageous so far as
he was concerned. Indeed he raised
their wages in consequence from
francs a day to ~ francs, so that they
must have done more work in the short
er day than in the longer one. When
the hours were reduced to II in 1872 in
Canton Glarus, the manufacturers
prophesied ruin, but obtained 80. Is per
cent OF their old production in the first
year and more than their old production
in the next.
In 1881 the Swiss factory inspector
reports a tannery and watch factory
as having voluntarily reduced their
hours to 10, and having in both cases
found the same quantity produced in
the day and an improvement in quality.
The textile manufacturers of particu-
lar district in Bohemia reduced their
hours in 1870, and while they got at
first little less product in the day they
soon got more than before. NJ Freese,
window blind manufacturer at Ham
burg and Berlin, who had reduced his
hours to nine in 1890 and found the step
profitable, reduced them further to eight
in 1892 and obtained from a majority
of his hands an increase of the quantity
produced without any loss Of quality.

last summer the crisis that threatened
has not enough intelligence to be USE
full or safe congressman, and those who
did see, but who allowed the disaster
which was apparent to befall the coun-
try, have betrayed the most sacred trust
ever reposed by one man in his fellow.
After months of the regular congress,
which meets day after day with the
most terrible situation of the country
confronting it, nothing is done to check
the food Of disaster which is bearing

myself that political capital could be

would unhesitatingly declare that the
neglect of congress to give any sort of
relief to the overstrained situation is
nothing short of criminal. 1t is absurd
to say that congress is pcwerless. If it
is pOwerless, then the time has come to
abolish it, for if it cannot meet an
emergency like the present-which it
should have forestalled-it is a delu-
sion. 1t is no longer the voice of the
people and the protector of their well
fare. But it has the power-yes, and
the knowledge too. Only honesty, pa
triotism and sincerity are lacking.

The Padrone System.

Every laboring man in the city is di-
rectly and personally interested in The
Worlds effort to break up the padrone
system. Organized labor cannot make
a better use of its power than in oppos-
ing the padrones, whose profit is black
mail levied upon scant wages, and whose
operations tend directly to a general
and ruinious reduction of the price of
labor.
There could be no other "bear' inf1u-
ence in the labor market so potent as
this. Five thousand laborers out of
work might bid low individually for
offered employment. But their bid
would be much higher than that Of a
padrone who held the 5000 as slaves to
be disposed Of in blocks, and who had the
power to deprive them of all work and
wages should they raise any objection
to his terms.
The wage of unskilled labor is small
in these times at best. Under the pa
drone system it tends to the minimum
at which soul and body can be kept to-
gether. 1t means so cents day. with
20 cents day for hard toll as near
prospect. The only security for labor,
skilled or unskilled, lies in the imlnedi-
ate and utter destruction Of the padrone
system. At present it deals only with
unskilled labor. If let alone, it will
presently bring skilled labor also under
its baleful control Under existing cir
cumstances, with scores of thousands
seeking work on any terms, that con-
quest will be easy.
The simple question is, Shall the pa
drones be driven utterly out of business,
or shall American workingmen become
their victims, paying blood money to
them tor employment and submitting to
such reductions of wages as it may
please them to negotiate with greedy
employers? The padrone must be tram
pied upon, or the workingmen Of this
country must become his chattels.-

Governor Greenhalge's Riot.

The Boston Equity union furnishes
the following condensed statement of
the disturbance" which occurred at
the statehouse last month:
1t will be long before the absurd spectacle
into which the governor of Massachusetts, was
thrown by the presence of a few thousand pc
titioning unemployed at the statehouse will
be forgotten. Having terrorized himself by
the specters he had conjured up, he fastened
to terrorize Massachusetts and the United
States. There was no riot, no intention of riot,
nothing in the speeches to provoke riot. and
the governor Quelled it with consummate
bravery and no loss of life on his part. Boston
applauded, the state applauded, the country
applauded, and the governor became great
man by means of the riot in his head. Thus a
great lie went forth on the spotless wings Of
the newspapers over the whole land. was swal-
lowed, tasted good, and Mr.. Greenhalge now
basks with George Washington in the hearts
Of his countrymen, having already partially
recovered from the fearful achievement Of
keeping quiet men quiet a week ago.

Landlords and the Devil.

So long as men will insist on getting
Is per cent for their money invested in
the so called homes for the poor, so long
will the devil have the best chance in
the terrible struggle which is going on
against him in our city for regenerating
society. 1t has been suggested that phi
lanthropy and per cent will do much
to solve the problem, but however much
philanthropy there may be one thing we
may make up our minds to, and that is
that the greed which couples philan-
thropy with 5 per cent and takes it out
of the poor by budding them together
in masses like cattle in car would
willingly use philanthropy-yea, the
immortal soul itself-to make sure of
its dividends. DR.. Chambers of

Run on the SOcialistic Plan.

The theories of certain social reform
ers are to be seen in actual working in
the little community of Klingenberg on
the-Main, in Germany. In the neigh
borhood of this town are valuable pits
Of ireproof clay which the authorities
in days gone by were farsighted enough
to retain as public property instead of
allowing them to be owned by individ-
uals. They are worked by the munich
pality for the public benefit. The result
is that Klingenberg is one Of the hap
piest places in Europe. Not only do the
profits on the clay suffice to cover all To-
cal and imperial taxation, but there is
a considerable surplus, the bulk Of which
is divided among the inhabitants. In
addition present of Is marks is made

DEPRESSION STATISTICS.
Report Of New York's Labor Commissioner
on His ssHard Times" Special INQUIRY.

Report Of New York's Labor Commissioners
on His "Hard Times" Special Inquiry.
Thomas j. Bowling, commissioner OF
the bureau of statistics of labor of New
York, in his report submitted to the
legislature makes special reference tc
the effects of the recent and present hard
times on manufacturers and their work
ing force. An investigation of the sub
ject was begun during December, when
a circular of inquiry was sent to the
owners of the different manufacturing
establishments in the state. The COM
missioner received replies from 2,O11
manufacturing concerns in 81 general
industries to the following questions
contained in the letter:
Did the recent and present hard
times cause suspension in your manu-
featuring establishment, and, if so, has
your workshop been closed entirely OF
partially?' Of the number responding
47O, or % per cent, stated that they had
not been affected by the business de-
preston and consequently did not cease
operations in their workshops, employ
ing their usual working force on full
time.
Fifteen hundred and forty-one manu-
facturers reported that they were affect.
ed by the hard times, 1919 declaring that
their works had been entirely closed.
One thousand and eighty-seven estab-
lishments were partially closed, while
255 manufactures were closed both par
tally or entirely-that il, they were
totally shut down for time, then par
TALLY opened with reduced labor force
or on short working time, or vice versa
In response to the question, "Was
there any reduction in wages on account
of the business depression, and, if SO,
what percentage?" 494 establishments
reported that they had reduced wages,
while 1,46O replied that they had not,
and 81 failed to answer. The clothing
industry represents the largest percent
age in the reduction of wages, which
ranges from to 6614 per cent.
Under the head of "Remarks'' some
Of the manufacturers attribute the bust
ness troubles to uncertainty about the

question "should be settled one way OF
the other" as many Of them express it,
and that when it is so settled manufac-
turers will know just what to do in order
to conform to the conditions imposed by
the law and will arrange their business
accordingly. Some assert that the pas
sage of the proposed bill will oblige
them to reduce wages, while others hold
an entirely different opinion. On the
other hand, some declare that, in their
opinion, the tariff has little or nothing
to do with a business depression that is
affecting the civilized countries of the
world, and that the chief factor in the
trouble is ''too many goods in the mar
ket, " or, in other words, overproduction
