THE TRADE SCHOOLS AND INDUSTRIAL MI
SEUMS OF GERMANY.

"The rapid advance Of Germany in manufactures
and commerce is due to the trade schools and in
dustria museums, in which our state and city are
sadly deficient.
This is the age Of industrialism, and vocational
training for the coming generation Will be the
saving grace of our past wastefulness and possi-
bic future want" declared Dr.. Kunz, "and in re-
gard 20 time. there is no time like the present,
when we have still with US many captains of in
dustry, with Edison. Thomson, Tesla. Orville
Wright Alexander Graham Bell, Marconi and 9TH
ers whose many inventions have done so much
TO revoutionize the present modes of life.
"If the buildings proposed are arranged to form

centre. each TO accommodate hundred thou
sand people, one for summer sports and one for
winter sports The Olympic games could then
be held here. instead OF having to 20 70 London

many other uses. such great pageants and
plays and ceremonies which require large space
for their suitable accommodation.
"There could also be central library building,

nation concerning the subjects covered by the

it would allow large landing stage and recep-

married and the majority we're voters. Records
that have been made in the shop show that 100
different trades have been represented.
The women have suffered particularly Sc
vcrely in the present hard times, and On this
account their pay is slightly higher than that
of the men. An Irish woman who is an excel
lent cook and proficient with the needle had
been looking for work for months, but had
been unable to obtain it because OF her great
poverty and poor appearance. In utter despair
she applied to the M, nicipal Employment Bu-
reau, which gave her a letter to the Mayors
committee, asking that she be put to work IN
one of the emergency shops. When she pre-
sented the letter no place was open and she
was told to apply elsewhere. The woman
broke down and said that she could not look
for work any longer without penny, that
she and her husband had eaten nothing tor
davs and that she would break up stone or
carry packing cases, if necessary, to make
enough money to keep alive. Under the cir
cumstances." says the committee, She was at
once provided with relief money and room was
made for her to go to work at ESQ Mott street.
Size was supplied with carfare, enough money
TO get food, and has been grateful and happy
that she has been able to sit and sew Tor hve
hours a day. When seen last she had good
prospects for obtaining position as cook'
which is her regular work. In this case the
temporary relief that we could supply was
sufficient to give the woman enough selt-re-

BROOKLYN WANTS AT LEAST TWO OF THE
BUILDINGS.

Brooklyn, with an able committe on improve
ment of its borough. is making a strong bid to
have AT least two Of the museum buildings. Inc
site chosen adjoins the Brooklyn Art Museum
facing the Eastern Parkway. This site IS an ideal
one for the buildings which the Brooklyn com
mittee feel would be of the greatest use there
namely, the Mechanical Arts and Electricity and
Steam and Navigation. The completion Of many
miles of subway now under construction IN the
borough. besides that which is now in opera
ton. renders this point easy Of access to FAR
larger number OF people than the Hudson River
site

mittee. says:
Brooklyn has over five thousand factories, two
terminals for state barge canals, and its Bush
