BRANDEIS' ADJUSTING IDEA
PROVED A SUCCESS
Washington, D. c., June pa
new way for adjusting troubles which
continually arise between employers
and employees was devised four years
ago by Louis Brandeis as a result of
the garmentmakers' strike in New
York What he calls an application
of the principle of democracy to in
dustry in the form of the preferential
open shop protocol has been in oper-
alton now for this period of time and
according to report by the Depart
ment of Labor its success has been
marked.
Out of 1858 cases brought before
the institution of clerks" during
these four years, 7,477, or 97.7 per
cent, were promptly adjusted by the
clerks and deputy clerks representing
the two sides. Of the 179 cases re-
ferred to the higher board, II involv-
ed single issue, so that actually only
1913 cases were brought before this
body. Of these 159 were satisfactor-
lily adjusted.
In only cases, which is one-tenth
of one per cent of the total cases, did
the board fail to reach a decision,
and these cases were referred to the
Board of Arbitration, which is the
final court of appeals in this industry.
The grievances adjusted covered
wide fields and included discrimina-
ton against individuals, wrongful
discharge, non-payment for legal
holidays and claims for wages due.

SIMPLE FUNERALS
UNDERTAKINGS SAY TENDENCY
Is To CONSIDER THE
LIVING.

Sioux City, July 11.-An i~nereas-
ing tendency toward simple funerals,
in which consideration for those who
feel most keenly the loss of a loved
one is the first object, is noted by un-
dertakers in Sioux City. Long drawn
out funeral services, remarkable for
pomp and ponderousness of the flu
neral discourse, are passing, they
say.
Another factor besides sympathy
for the living, that is having weight
on the side of the plain funerals, is
the high cost of living and the fact
that it has affected livery prices and
other items in a way to make dying
even more costly.
Individual cases occur in which a
family feels Obliged to show grief by
lavish expenditure i'm connection with
the funeral. But it is declared that
the very p~ereeptible general tendency
is the other way.
The function of the undertaken
funeral director, sometimes yet he Is
! called-also is undergoing a subtle
| change. they say. He is no longer
just a ealloused person who must be
tolerated, much as the hangman OF
| yesteryear. He is, and must be in
order to succeed. a t%actful, trained
person, whose first duty is not to the
| dead. but TO the living.
The undertaken must supervise flu
nerals in such a way as to avoid un-
necessary pain. More and more it is
becoming customary to give him a
| voice in the the arrangements of all
