Paris, Feb. 6.-Positivc steps
for reconciling differences be-
tween the greater and lesser
nations at the peace conference, be-
gun yesterday, are continuing to-
day. In addition TO winning four
additional places on tn commission
on the Society of Nations. it seems
probable the lesser powers will also
be granted adequate representation
in the executive body of the Society
as we'll as the legislative sections. The
smaller powers are insisting on be-
ing given n greater voice in the So
ciety. Plans under consideration are
being revised to meet the situation.
When the commission on the So
ciety of Nations meets tonight rep
resentatives of Poland, Rumania,
Greece and CZecho-Slovakia will be
present together with those of
China, Brazil, Belgium, Porg1gal and
Serbia and the five great powers.
PresidentsWilson expects to be pres

CARDS the work of framing the plan

small Powers nine seats on the COM
mission, which will frame the plan
for the Society, and ten seats to the
FIVE oppat Powers
According to the decision the
smaller powers of Poland, Rumania;
and Greece will hold
additional seats. This concession to
lesser nations became known last
night following a long session of
the commission on the Society of Ma

tended. IT was, apparently, received
with satisfaction by the smaller
powers, which felt their representa-
tion to be Inadequate
Last nights session of the commits

being the constitution of the execu-

SAyS5~H HOUR day
BRINGS: RESULTS
London Professor Declares Few
Brain Workers Put in More
Time At Work.

LONDON, England, Jan. 23.-Prof
Hobhouse, of the London school Of
economics, takes little stock in the
claim Of some brain workers that they
labor eight hours a day and longer
This claim is often used by the oppo-
nents of the eight-hour day for indus
trial workers. Prof. Hobhouse says:
when asked my personal view of
the eight-hour question began with
my own experience.
II have worked with my brain as
hard as another for the best part Of
lifetime; but since boyhood have
never done a regular cight-hour day.
The simple reason is that get my
maximum output on a five-hour day
or Whereabouts and you woull find
many brain workers who. if they kert
careful count could tell you the Slime
thing. A..
There are, indeed, some very Tough
subjects who can do good deal more.
I knew a legal luminary~w told me
that he worked at: least H. hours a
day and then read metaphysics in his
armchair. But never thought i. his
metaphysics were very good. Darwin,
who could hardly be. accused of intel
1ectual slackness or inefficiency, did
four hours a day regularly And I
remember the late master of Balliol
saying that he considered. five (nay fig
ure) a good allowance for a normal
reading man. So when manual work.
ers demand an eight-hour day it is
certainly not for. the likes of me to
accuse them OF slackness."
