Additional restrictions are necessary IN
order TO insure that automobiles taking
part IN contests, particularly in races, are
bona fide stock cars. according 10 Wlncsor
T. White. president Of the White company
Mr. White proposes a rule whereby any
machine entered in a contest may be
claimed by any other entrant on the pay
ment OF the list price Of that car, on the
order of selling races at the thoroughbred
running meetings.
''I think no one will dispute the state
nent that there has been much ground for
dissatisfaction with and distrust Of the
stock car racing situation" said Mr.. White
in discussing the proposed reform yester-
day The examination of contesting cars
at race meets is necessarily of the most
superficial character. and generally dis
closes nothing more than that the cylinders
are of the proper dimensions and that the
general arrangement Of parts is the same
as in the stock model. Such an examtna-
ton cannot reveal. for example. whether or
not the racing car has q chrome nickel
steel crank shaft when real stock cars Of
the same make use only common machine
steeD or whether or not there has been g.
similar substitution of materials through
out.
The public has had ample reason 10 be
suspicious. For example, they have not
understood why it was necessary for a
stock car which competed one week in New
York to be rushed by express TO compete
IN MINNEAPOLIS or New Orleans the next

WAGES Paid by krupps.

Compared with the wages paid
American workmen. the scale in
Krupps fs very low. but compared
with other German Industries the
wages are high. The average wage Is
$1.35 a day. However. the cost Of
living is low. The bread for the entire
community is made in one bakeshop-
1t is sold to each person at a certain
liked price. and at the end of the year
rebate is given to the purchaser ac-
cording to the amount bought. The
Krupps manage the bakery. but they
are perfectly satisfied to make their
profits on iron and steel. and they give
their employees the benefit of getting
the best OF bread at absolute cost. 1t
may be said In passing that employees
are not compelled to patronize the bake
shop.

Tn. L.ekaw.nna Pension System.

The IackawAnna Pension System.
The Lackawanna railroad pays the
entire amount of its pensions. the men
contributing nothing. Any one who has
been in the service twenty-five years
goes upon the pension list when he is
retired at seventy. Between sixty and
stxty-n1ne any one of twenty-fv
years. service who becomes incapaci-
tated may be retired on pension or
any one who becomes incapacitated
through injury. The Lackawanna fixes
the pension by taking l per cent of the
average wage for the ten years before
retirement and multiplying thar by
the number Of years of service. An en-
gineer having averaged $50 month
for ten years before retirement and
having been an employee for thirty
years retires with pension Of SIS a
month. Last year the highest Lacka-
wanna pension was $76.31. the lowest
1922; average. $22.23 The average
age was sixty-eight years and four
months. The system has been In opera

What Better Wages Mean.

"Unfitness means low wages. low
wages mean insufficient food. and In
sufficient food means unfitness Tor
work, so that the vicious circle is COM
plete." This is what Rountree calls
the vicious circle Of poverty. May
we not. however. say conversely.
writes Frederick Almy in the Survey.
that increased income through better
wages means better food and quarters:
these mean better strength and cour-
age; these mean better work and In
come. and SO instead Of an endless
chain Of poverty we may have an end
less chain Of progress"
