THE 8-H0UR DAY
INVESTIGATIONS SHOW THAT 1T
is PREFERABLE IN EVERY WAY
TO WORK DAY OF 10 HOURS.

The United States Public Health
Service has just published the results
of one of it's studies made to find out
whether the S-hour day is more eff
cient than the 10-hour day. Two
plants, each of high standard, were in
vestigated, one working on an S-hour
and the other on a 1O-hour basis.
In the S-hour plant, the output con-
tinued at a steady rate and work be-
gan and ended on time, while in the
1O-hour lost time was experienced and
production as a rule declined in the
latter hours of the day. The work in
the S-hour plant depended upon indi
vidual capacity while in the 10-hour
plant there was some limitation of the
output. Recess periods were found tc
be of value particularly in the after
noon, and holidays added to produc
ton on the following day.
The 12-hour night shift, which is
common in factories that have the 10
hour day shift, was learned to be espe
cially inefficient, the output progress
sively declining during the night ant
falling abruptly in the last two hours
of work. 1t was also found that ltht
shorter day had an influence upon tht
number of accidents.

THE lAYMEN'S BOARD
PLAN TO RAISE LARGE SUM FOR
CENTERs FOR BOYS AND
YOUNG MEN.

The fact that more than 70 per cent
of the Catholic laymen of America are
not members of any Catholic society
will not prevent their full participa-
ton in the great work of the National
Catholic Laymens Council.
Plans have been formulated where
by, working through parish units, the
active support of every Catholic lay
man in the United States will be en-.
listed in the work of the organization,
of which the Right Rev. Joseph
Schrembs, Bishop of Toledo, is the
leader.
The establishment of national
school for the training of laymen for
social service work will be one of the
first projects of discussion at the first
conference of the twelve members of
the board of directors to be held
within the next few weeks, probably
in Chicago.
The project to raise 25,000,000 as
an endowment fund with which to es
tablish a chain of Catholic assOcia,
tions for boys and young men which
will provide them with adequate
recreational and educational facilities
was enthusiastically received by the
delegates to the conference, according
to Secretary Slattery.

POPE AIDS HELPLESS
LENDS MONEY TO NEEDY-HOLY
OIL SUPPLIED TO BISHOPS.

His Holiness has just sent half
million lire to the Cardinal Archbishop
of Strigonia for the starving children
of Hungary, and another half-million
to Cardinal Bertram of Breslau for
those of Eastern Germany, also two
further half-millions to the Arch
bishops of Cologne and Munich for
those of the western and southern
parts of the country. Moreover, the
Holy Father sent oil from Italy for
the Holy Oil and Chrism in Hungary.
Last year, under the Bolshevist per.
secution by Bella Kun, not a single
Bishop could get an ounce of oil for
this sacred purpose. This year, though
the Bishops were free to get oil, there
was none to be got, and but for the
Holy Fathers generosity Hungarian
Catholics would again have gone with
out it.

A SIBERIAN PARISH
K. OF c. CHAPLAIN ATTENDED TO
10000 MEN IN TWO THOUSAND
SQUARE MILES,

The largest parish in the world is,
Or rather was, Father John Spann-
bauer's. Father Spannbauer served
for many months as knights Of Col
umbus chaplain with the A. E. F. in
Siberia, being the sole spiritual min
lister to some 10000 men in an area
of more than two thousand square
miles, for he attended not only Ameri-
cans but other forces cooperating
with the A. E. F., making his head
quarters at the X. of c. club, Vladi-
vOstok.
When Austria declared war, Father
Spannbauer's fellowmen, Bohemians,
were drafted into Franz Josef's forces,
and the priest promptly joined them
as their chaplain. For them, the war
was of short duration. In the first
big push against the Russian bear
the BOhemians were captured and
herded in gigantic concentration
camps.
When he arrived at the prison camp
Father Spannbauer found himself the
only spiritual comforter in a camp OF
more than $4,000 men. After a short
time, he was offered his release, but
declined to quit his charges.
With the coming of the Americans
William F. Fox, of Indianapolis, and
Garry McGarry, of Buffalo, in charge
of the Knights of Columbus work in
Siberia, realized the tremendous field
open to the Bohemian chaplain, anG
enlisted him in the X. of G.. ranks. He
carried on his ministrations through
out all Eastern Siberia, the only Cath
olic chaplain in that vast expanse OF
territory, until the last Americans EN-
barked for home and he was assured
that the Czecho-Slovaks would leave
| on the next transport Then he lef
| for America. He has a record of five
years devotion to the cause in ST
| IBERIA.
