new CALENDAR PLAN
HAS TEN-DAY WEEKS
Philadelphia Engineer Advances
Scheme in Opposition to That
Cive, to Congress
TAKES NEITHER SERIOUSLY

Al week of ten days with half holi-
day in every five and week OF holidays
every year is a suggestion for new
calendar advanced by DIR. Carl Herring
an engineer. with offices at 2lO South
Thirteenth street.
Doctor Herring advances this idea in
opposition to one proposed in olIl IN
troduced in Congress establishing a
year of thirteen months with each month
containing four weeks. Such a calen .
dar would make quarterly payments and
other established business customs dlhi-
cult, Doctor Herring says.
He is not eager to have either pro-
position taken too seriously by this
generation.
"Nothing will be done" be said to-
day. "I merely advance these ideas to
show the possibility OF changing the
abominable calendar we now have.
He was asked how he would name the
ten DAYS of the week in his plan, and
he said such matters were mere de-
tails.
Another suggestion he has is that
there be twelve months of twenty eight
business days with two days of lPgaI
HOLIDAYS at the end of each month with
full week of rest at the end of each
year.
"why not change the length of tho
day." he was asked.
THAT would be impossible he re e
piled. "The day is based on the length
of time it takes for the sun TO rotate
! on its axis and if the day were ar
bitrarily made any longer or shorter,
we would some day be working at mid
night and sleeping in the day time.
Only a change in the solar system could
make the day any different and of course
that would be a calamity
Under his plan he said there would
( be NOT much difference in business CON
ditions except to add to the convent
ence of life. With the present half
holiday Saturday the world works five
and half days and then rests a day
and a half. His system would reduce
this to a half day in five or one day in
ten instead of three in fourteen as is the
custom now.
"But none of us will live to sec it -
he laughed. $50 we won't worry about
the details"
