EIGHT HOUR DAY ADOPTED
FOR cERTAlN.TEEDW WORKERS

The eight hour day, without any
reduction in any employees wages for
days work, is to be put into effect
January LIST, throughout every de-
partment Of the General Roofing
Mfg. Co., manufacturers Of Certain
teed Roofing. This announcement
from George M. Brown, president,
was made following the November
meeting of the Board Of Directors.
This is not a sudden change in COM
pany policy, according to Mr.. Brown.
On the contrary, 1t Ia merely carry
ing to completion the policy adopted
in theory several years ago, and
which has been put into effect in
various departments as rapidly as
conditions justified.
Mr.. Brown said further that this
action was taken despite the fact
that the custom Of working eleven
hour day shifts and thirteen hour
night shifts prevailed almost uni
versally among felt and paper mills
and roofing factories. and that his
company's scale Of wages was al
ready higher than the average in
like industries.
At the same time the announce
ment Of the eight-hour day was
made, an invitation was given to the
plant employees to offer suggestions
for Improvement in safety measures
and sanitary conditions. This, too,

the legislation is in the interest of good things, and ought to be en- acted before another Presidential campaign rolls around. or course, there will be Republicans in both houses who will oppose this legis- lation, claiming that 1t is aimed dl- rectly at Hughes, but the Democrats believe that the deslrability of hav- ing a statute of this kind will out-' weigh any arguments the Republl- cans can offer.
 Will Heighten Court Personnel.
 With the possibility of further ad- yancement denied and a lifework dedicated to promulgating justice from the supreme bench, 1t is claim ed that there will be no difficulty in obtaining for appointment men of the very highest ability, men still in early middle age, who will have many years of service ahead of them.
 The supreme bench is the pima cle for nearly every lawyer in the country. One of the most eminent lawyers of the country recently viewed the court while it was in session and remarked tbat he would sacrifice twenty-five years of the best part of his life for the honor of an appointment. There are thousands of lawyers who feel the same way.
 It was the policy of Roosevelt and Taft, in numerous instances, to name elderly men to the bench, so that they might round out. their careers there. It has been the policy of Wilson to name men less than 50 who are still in the prime of life and anxious by hard work on the bench to add to their previous reputations. The Wilson method is believed to be the better one.

NEW MACHINE GAN DISCOVER
 MANY CRIMES
Automatic Instrument Is Accepted by Court
 When Murderer
 Found Insane.

SPRINGFIELD. H.. Dec. 29. A crime machine" which automatical- ly reveals the guilt or innocence of person, has been perfected, and its findings have been presented as evidence in q court room.
 The "pneumograph," as it Is known, has been perfected by pr. A. A. Dollear, of Jacksonville, and its findings presented in the Circuit Court of Pike County in q murder trial by Dr. Dollaer and his colleague, Dr. Frank ?. Norbury. of Springfield.
 The records of the pneumograph were presented to prove that George Brokaw. self-confessed murderer of his son Roy. was insane. The inyes- tigations made with the machine on Brokaw were continued by Dr. Norbury and Dr. Dollaer over a per iod of several weeks at sanitar- ium at Jacksonville.
 The evidence was presented in the Pike County Circuit Court at Pitts field before Judge w. R. Hickman, and on the strength of this evidence the jury this morning gave verdict adjudging Brokaw insane, and he was sent to Chester by Judge Hickman.
 The "pneumograph" Is based on the scientific discovery that>all the emo tions affect the breathing directly.

Oil Rotation Process for the Treating of Copper Has Caused Much
 Litigation.
ADJUSTMENT COMING
Damages Being Brought to Attention of Sev-. eraI Companies in
 Mining Field.

NEW YORK, Dec. 29,-That the decision of the United States Su- preme Court upholding the basic pat ent of Minerals Separation, Ltd, on the oil ilotation process for treating certain kinds of copper, lead, zinc, gold and silver ores, will pave the way for an amicable adjustment Of the whole controversy. is the belief expressed by Mineral Separation in- terests.
 According to the Mineral Separa- ton representatives. 2S4 American mining companies now infringing on the flotation process will have an opportunity to thoroughly consider the question of damages and future royalties before steps are taken to enforce the patentees' claim.
 We are not disposed to be in a hurry" said one of the attorneys who conducted the Minerals Separa- tion action in the Supreme Court But now that the matter has been finally adjudicated it is up to those companies to settle for past infringe ments and make provision for the fu- ture."
 It is stated that if no efforts are made by alleged infringing companies to adjust the controversy the patent ees will commence damage suits. At the commencement preliminary injunction will be asked to stop the alleged infringing companies from using the flotation process.
 These actions will be followed by a legal demand for an accounting of funds derived from the use of the process and to determine what prof its are accruing to Minerals Separa- ton. Patentees will also ask for a permanent injunction.
 But mining authori are some what skeptical over the ability of Minerals Separation to obtain in- functions. They feel that the com panies affected. especially the Utah Ray. Chino. Miami. and the Nevada

President Wilson Has Appointed Three to August Tribunal
 During Term.
MAY NAME FOUR MORE
Several Are Like to Change During the Coming Four
 Years.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 29.-There is a probability that President Will son. before he retires from office in 1921. will have appointed seven of the nine members of the supreme court. which will be a record. AL ready he has named three members of the. court, Justices McReynolds, Brandeis. and Clarke, and it is al- most certain that he will have oc- casion to name others.
 Three of the justices already have passed the retiring age, which is 70 years-Chief Justice White, who was born in 1S45; Justice McKenna, who was born in 1S43; and Justice Holmes. who was born in 1S41. White is 71, McKenna 7S, and Holmes 75. Justice Day has been in poor health for several years. and it is unlikely that he will be able to give four years more of service.
 In his one term as President, Taft appointed four justices and named the chief justice. Wilson in his first term has not equaled the Taft record, but he will exceed it in two terms. Wilson has also held closer to the practice of earlier days by appointing comparatively young men,

Lawvers AnnroYe Policy.

This practice is very generally ap- proved by the lawyers of the coun- try and by public men in all politi- cal parties. The President has dis covered that men are ripened in ex- perience and their ability has been tested even for SO distinguished a place as the supreme bench, by the time they reach the age of 30. and sometimes earlier Some of the men appointed by Roosevelt and Taft were as old as 50.
 While on this subject, it may be worth while to say that a strenu- ous effort will be made during the life of the Congress that was elected last month, to enact a law that will prevent members of the supreme court from aspiring to the Presiden- cy.
 The Democrats believe it will be possible to put such a bill through both houses without serious difficult

They will call attention to the fact that the bill will not be per sonal drive at Hughes, for neither President Wilson nor any promi- nent party leader made any effort during the recent campaign to crit icizs Hughes because he had left the supreme bench to run for the Presidency.
 There was a good deal of talk about putting a plank in the na- tional platform this year criticizing Hughes, but Wilson interposed an objection and the matter was drop ped. The most ardent advocate of that action was Senator Stone of Missouri, who was chairman of the resolutions committee in the St. Louis convention.
 But now that the campaign is safely over, and Hughes hts been de- feated. the Democrats will say that

~ HOUGH Clifford Pinehot,
W who was a Roosevelt ap-
pointee to office, is sup
porting Hughes, his brother,
Amos Pinchot, equally noted
as a bull moose leader. is an ar
dent support of President
Wilson. So is his wife.
In a statement just issued
from New York Mrs. Amos
Pinchot lauds Wilson as the
truest friend of the woman's
cause. She says:
From the beginning. the demo-
cratic party has been the champion
OF the woman's cause. President Will
son was the first pres'd dent ever to
vote for equal suffrage, or ever to ex-
press himself forcibly in its favor. In
the twelve states that now allow wo-
men 10 vote, all but four granted the
privilege under democratic adminis-
trations And in these four, the wo-
rams cause won once by A territorial
act, once under the popuiists and
twice under the progress.ves. The re-
publican party. in not single in.
stance has granted the right OF fran
chise 10 women.
The woman suffrage states. the

was granted, and the years, might be
interesting for reference. They are:

THUS, vote for Wilson is vote
for woman suffrage"
To women who think of the
present election from the
standpoint of equal suffragists
the appeal of Mrs. Pinchot will
strike home.

made good upon a subject is
more dependable than a man
who has done nothing for you

WHERE DOES VILLA
MONEY COME FROM?

40 man who has followed
NJ Mexican affairs can fail
to see the significance in
the renewal of Villa operations
at this time. Only a month OF
so ago Villa was defeated,
wounded and his forces scat.
tered. He had neither money
nor men. He has been sup
piled with both in recent weeks
and is trying to make a stir
with the evident intent of dis
crediting Carranza and Incl
dentally the Wilson admins
tratiOn.
Where does the Villa money
come from? How does it hap
pen that a bandit chieftain
who was down and out has so
quickly come to life when
there was nothing in Mexico to
account for the phenomena?
There are men in New York
city who know how Villa is be-
ing financed. Several men
who are heavily interested in
Mexico are heavily interested
in the Hughes campaign. They
have given money for Mexican
uprisings before. 1t is a fair
assumption they are busy
again.
