Untermyer Tells Manufac.
turers How Confidence
May Be Restored
ASKS PLAIN LAWS
FOR BIG BUSINESS
Divorce of Railways and
Business Asked by
Speaker

| Chicago, Jan. 6.-Samuel Untermyer
counsel for the Pujo congressional com,
mittee which Investigated the so-called
money trust, yesterday outlined in a
speech to the Illinois Manufacturers as
ISOLATION what he terms the necessary
program to restore business freedom and
confidence.
Leaders of big business must first
purge their minds of prejudice and must
subordinate personal desire for gain to
the public good, he declared. Next in
Importance, he said, is that the laws
under which business is conducted must
be so plain that the business man can
tell instinctively what constitutes vio-
lation.
Complete dissolution between the rail-
roads and industrial corporations and
laws requiring railroads to part with in
terests in properties whose products
they are engaged in. transporting are
also requirements, according to Mr.. I'M
termyer.
An executive body to study each sit
uation and recommend to the court
comprehensive plan of disintegration is
needed when the new laws are put into
effect The human quality, which he
classified as stockholders inertia" was
the chief preventive of immediate re-
form, according to the speaker
cit is one of the best-known and
safest factors in corporate management
and the one on which the banking in
terests can most safely rely. 1t sur
wives dishonesty, mismanagement and
every form of corporate abuse. 1t is
incurable and immovable. 1t is more
than all the other causes combined, re-
sponsible for corporate distrust and the
ills from which we are now suffering.
Nothing is to pe gained by reprisals
in the way of criminal prosecutions for
violations that were committed before
the courts construed the law as we now
understand it, and that have been rem
edied or definitely abandoned"
He criticised the dissolution of the
Standard Oil as "farccal' and that of
Union and Southern Pacific as not much
of an improvement.

the Princess Louise. the reply TO
this, a formal demand for the hand
of the younger princess. was handed
the king Of Wortenberg at the same
time that Carl received Danilo's chal.
lenge- The king, knowing of CARTS
expected departure the next day, at
once called a family conclave to de-
eide upon whether to give the prince
encouragement to remain or to permit
him to depart After discussing the
matter before arriving at a decision
the Princess Louise was called in and
the case stated to her. Should the af-
fair with Danilo, which was being
considered by the council of state, be
allowed to go through, or should it be
broken Off and consideration be given
to the demand of the king of Aura
mia?
II will not marry Prince Danilo,"
she said. "And If Prince Carl pro-
poses to me will marry him, no mat
ter what action the council may take"
Now. the princess was a young wo-
man of considerable Grmness She
laid out duties for herself to perform
daily, and 1T was in wSking costume
that Carl had mistaken her identity.
Her father well knew that when she
took a position all the kings horses
and all the kings men couldn't make
her change 1t. Without waiting to
hear what he had to say further she
went to her apartments for considera.
ton. for she had got wind of the duet
to take place in the morning and
wished to prevent it. The result of
her deliberation was a note to Danilo
saying that, though she had been highs
ly honored by his proposition, she
would decline 1t,
This was tantamount to an order for
him to withdraw his challenge, for. ex-
cept for being considered an appli-
cant for her hand, he was not called
upon TO protect her. Carl went to the
grounds in the morning. where he re-
ceived the withdrawal of the chaI-
Ienge.
And this is how a prince of the
blood went counting a princess ard
married her sister.

Ford Company Is to Share
Millions with Work
men
WAGES OF THOUSANDS
WILL BE DOUBLED
An Eight-Hour Day for All
Watch on Con-
duct

Detroit, Mich, Jan. 6-Announcement
was made yesterday by the Ford Motor
company of Detroit, of profit-sharing
scheme by which $l0,000,000, approx
mately half the earnings of the concern,
win be distributed annually to its en-
ployes.
At the same time it was announced
that the working day for the men would
be cut one hour, making an eight-hour
day, with no decrease in pay and that
1000 new employees would be added to
the eompany's working force immedi-
ately, making a total of $4,000 men.
The distribution of the surplus will
start one week from yesterday. Under
the terms of the plan, the company an.
nounced, no employee of % years of age
or over will receive less than s. fof
an eight -hour day, even though he be
merely floor sweeper. The minimum
wages for employees is now 1924 for a

In connection with the launching of

pany has organized sociological depart
ment which will keep close watch on
the manner of living of all employees,

plan" said Secretary Couzens. ''He be-
lieves there has been too big division
between capital and labor and labor has
not shared to the extent it should. The
proft-sharing plan is not to be looked
upon as an increase in wages. 1t is
merely plan whereby the employees of
the company and its branches will share
in what the plant and its branches pro.
duce. We believe it win materially inn
prove the standard of our employees"

EGG STRIKE IN ST. LOUIS.
Peoples League, with 1000 Members, Ex-
poets Lower Prices.

st. Louis, Mo, Jan. 6.--An egg consum-
ers' strike which is to last week was
inaugurated here yesterday by the Peo-
pies league, civic organization with
membership of almost 1000. The
league has urged both housewives and
restaurant patrons to abstain from the
use of eggs, not so much for the pur-
pose of effectiug an immediate reduc-
tion in the price of eggs, but rather to
demonstrate that the consumers can get
together and thereby exert an influence
over market conditions. According to
leaders of the movement, the price of
fresh eggs has been reduced from forty
five cents to forty cents a dozen and
of storage eggs from thirty-fve to thir-
ty cents as a result of the advance
of the boycott.

Washington, Jan. 6.-Loss of Sl29,-
100000 in two years by the unsuspecting
public through swindling operations
carried on by use of the United States
mails has stirred the postal authorities
to a drastic campaign against fraudulent
schemers. The governments right to
deny the mailing privilege to persons or
firms whose operations may be tainted
is the weapon to be employed, An effort
to stop this swindling by reliance upon
the criminal courts has proved ineffec-
tive because of the slowness of criminal
proceedings, according TO w. II. Lamar,
assistant attorney general for the post
Office department, whose annual report
