A Blockade on Mis-.
understanding!

IUNGER has been responsible for
L. many crimes, running the garnut
from the harmless white lie right up to
irnpulsive murder. They say person
can be starved into almost anything.
That's why they blockade misbehaving
countries and starve them into sanity.
It's a less tragic way than war. But it
happens too seldom.
However, there are blockades of smaller
dimensions, which, if used in civil life, would
obviate much trouble; would increase the
well-being of the world; would bring salts
faction in wholesome way to both sides of
controversy.
Rotary Suggests Blockade.
AS starter, the Rotary Club of New York
suggests a blockade IN misunderstanding. 1t
believes that with misunderstanding elir1i-
mated the unrest which alternately SINNERS
and breaks into live flame would dwndle to
insignifcance. And there is but one way to
eliminate misunderstanding by talking
things over before they get 10 the bare fists

ABUNDANCE Of Jobs
IN PHONE FACTORIES
Industry Increasing Ranks Of
Employees as Many Others
Are CurtaiIing.

Just at this moment when mos,
manufacturers are talking OF re-
trenchment and the reduction OF their
working forces Il Is interesting to
note the big increase In the ranks Of
the telephone manufacturing industry.
The Western Electric Company which
manufacturers practically all the
transmission apparatus used by the
Bell System announces that during
thee month OF September the number
OF its employees reached the highest
point In it's history. Its payrolis
showed a total personnel OF 34.222
compared with q total OF $500 for
the same month in 1919.
A glance at the figures will demon
strate the efforts that are being made
TO cut down the present shortage OF
telephone material or the present
star Fl. 500 are stationed at the big
works which the Western Electric
maintains at Hawthorne, near Chi
cago. A year ago there were only
1888 working at Hawthorne. The
present force there represents an in.
crease during the past twelve months
OF over AZ per cent.
The development OF new ideas In
telephone circles has also resulted in
a big increase in the number OF en-
ployes In the engineering departmnt
Of the company. From a stan OF
1850 in September. 1919. the ranks Of
the engineers have reached upward
until they now total 3.5I2. the ma

ELECTRIC SERVICE
POPULAR IN CHINA
Thousands of Homes in Shang-
hal Fitted With Up-to-
Date Lights.

Thousands Of homes in Shanghai.
China, were fully wired for electric
service at thu end OF 1919, according
to reports received within the last
few weeks by American companies
doing an international business. The
growth in the last few years in the
use and knowledge OF electricity in
this principal manufacturing city OF
China has been impressive, especially
as the war seemed to have little effect
in slowing up operations.
Actual figures have not been given
out as to the number of private dwell
ings in Shanghai now using cleo
tricity 1t is estimated. however. that
at the present time the number Is
close to 10000. IL Is understood that
these homes are not only using cleo
tricity for lighting. but for various
OF the modern home appliances such
as are gaining popularity In this
country.
INDUSTRIES DEVELOPED.
The Industrial field has been i'm
mensely developed by extensions In
Shanghai textile mills, which have
added thousands OF spindles within
the last eighteen months. Other in
dustries have also demanded electric
power. The use Of mood lighting pro-
jectors for various purposes has be-
come new field for electricity s
services in Shanghai.
The city's increased electrical bust
ness is indicated by additions to It's
central station equipment just made
by the Shanghai Municipal Council.
which furnishes electric light and
power to all Shanghai This cor
poration is just installing two 1000
kilowatt turbine generator sets, built
at the Schenectady, n. Y, works OF
the General Electric Company. These
big machines have just been set up
after six months Of work. and will
begin operations this fall.
Owing to the transportation meth.
DDS of eastern China, the task OF ship
ping the two turbine generators was
a problem. but one which the ship
ping experts of the General Electric
Company solved successfully. The
big apparatus was packed in scores
OF separate cases and sent out OF
Schenectady in many freight cars. A
special shipping representative. or
erector. took charge OF the apparatus
as soon as It reached Shanghai.
Native boats, so feet long. dashed to-
gether by heavy timbers. conveyed
the cases, weighing many tons, up
the Wampoo River to the power sta
ton. Scores OF coolies unloaded
them over the river bank, which Ia
lined by n sea wall. They were then
moved a quarter of a mile across mud
fields with skids, rollers, Jacks and
winches.
Most OF the smaller cases were
slung on bamboo poles and carried by
stout-shouldered coolies. Some heavy
cases were carried this way. with
fifteen or twenty coolies on the ends
OF the poles.

anybody dreamed that almost every
thing In the world can be run by
electricity. II was when the scien-
lists got together in later years and
decided to give names to what they
had learned about electricity that
they picked out an electrical unit OF
pressure and called IL a volt"
One of the first things the fathers
OF electricity learned was that there
is a force from behind"-pTessure-
In electricity.
You get an idea OF what Is meant
by pressure when you remember the
garden hose playing over the lawn.
When II only "hah worked" and
threw q stream only a little way you
said It lacked pressure" As the
pressure was greater the hose
work ed" better.
This pressure was the power back
behind" in the water pipe. It Is al
ways there, but cannot show itself In
action until you turn on the nozzle OF
the hose. Then II tries to escape. the
power back behind" pressing the
water on and out. Electricity flows
exactly the same way. except that you
cannot see II, although you behold
what 1t does. The second you turn
on" the switch the electricity flows;
the power in the line Is always there
seeking to be free and at work. .,
Nowadays IL Is very simple to meas
ure this electric pressure. So II you
have a wire filled with electricity. in
stead of the garden hose hlled with
water. and want to make an electric
vacuum cleaner go you will under
stand that you must have an electric
current OF enough strength or pres
sure to make the little wheels turn
and keep revolving. Nearly all house
currents have a 110-volt pressure.
A volt, then, Is the pressure that Is
needed to force a current Of electricity
OF a certain quantity through a wire
of given resistance. or. to speak in
scientific terms, a volt Is the pressure
required to force one ampere of cur
rent through a conductor having one
ohm resistance. These terms will be
explained in the succeeding articles.
