LIMIT PRODUCTION

During Last Six Months Of 1918 Max

Cent Of Total in 1917.

Washington, Aug, Manufacture
ers of passenger automobiles and re-
pair parts have agreed with war in
dustries board at Washington to
limit production during the last six
months of 1918 to 25 per cent OF the
total production in 1917, according TO
an announcement last night in the
form OF letter from the war indus
tries board to the national automobile
chamber OF commerce. To permit
this production the board gave notice
that it will extend preferential treat
ment for the obtaining OF materials
necessary to match up the stock on
hand
Plants having an excess supply of
steel on hand after completing the
permitted construction, according to
the terms of the agreement, will be
required to turn over the supply to
other plants, The agreement means
the cutting of automobile production
during the last half Of the present
year at least so per cent
The board in its letters refused to
make any promises concerning pro
duction of passenger automobiles af-
ter December 81, 1918. but reiterated
its previous request that all plants get
on a war work basis before the end of
the year

Gen. March stated yesterday that
the Allied lines in France had been
shortened fifty miles by Foch's coun-
ter.offensives. This in itself is
equivalent to reinforcements of $50,
900 men. New York World
We should not look upon the short
ening of the allied line as being dis
tinct advantage to us, for we should
remember that the line of the enemy
is being shortened at the same time
and to the same extent When we
bend the enemy line back so that 1t
begins to lengthen because OF the
bending, this indicates a distinct gain.
In former months the Huns had been
bending the allied line back and back
towards Paris. Recently the pushing
process has been going the other way
until now the-llne is comparatively
straight. The next process is to
bend the enemy line back till it
breaks, or else push the entire army
back into Germany There is yet an
immense amount of work and desper.
ate fighting ahead But the turning
point has been reached and from now
on, the final triumph OF the allied cause
should be constantly more and more
assured.

The qualities that 20 to make up a
man are tremendously complex and yet
It is possible by close scrutiny and
keen observation to analyze man and
understand him more clearly than he
sees himself. There are certain cardi-

which can be determined by visual
examination made by an expert. In
like manner can be determined the
handspring of the man as exemplified
In what we ordinarily consider the
various parts of his Will, or those fac
tors which govern his actions. The
practical application of the studies
taken together with his exerlence and
history is then apparent. Knowing his
various physical and mental character
istics and his experience, we know
what sort of work he is able TO do.
Knowing his viii and what might be
termed spiritual characteristics, we
know what he win do, provided sur
rounding circumstances permit. With
this In mind we would place each ono
Of our present or new employees at
such work as he is best able to do, and
we see that this Is not necessarily that
which he has always done. although In
general 1t does have more or less
close relation with that.-Industrial

In all parts OF New England school
directors are facing serious situa-
ton which is largely created by the
war. They are short on teachers for
the schools which are scheduled to
open this week or next Il is an mn.
fortunate condition Of affairs: and
much ingenuity will have to be en-.
ployed to avoid the dissatisfaction
that is sure to arise The great ma.
1ority of the rural school teachers are
women, and 1t is no secret that, as a
rule, they have been poorly paid.
There has been demand for efficient
women in various branches of govern.
ment work at much better salaries
than are paid for school work, and
many of the teachers have turned to
stenography and secretarial work for
the government for their livelihood
The work appeals to them as being
tuily as cOngenial, having less respon.
sibility and care, and certainly paying
better A larger percentage than
usual of high school graduates that
ordinarily could be relied upon to fiji
teaching positions, have taken up
other lines of work where the com.
pensation is greater. There seems to
be but one remedy for this condition
OF affairs, and that is to offer as high
wages for teaching as the young wo.
men can command for other work
Even that may not relieve the situa
ton this fall.
