France is finding one comfort In the

their differences and continuing to
live under the same roof. During the

DO MOST WORK ON THURSDAY
Statistics Show That British Factory
Employees Are at Their Best
About Midweek.

What is the best workday in Amer
lea? In England it is Thursday.
That Is the finding Of industrial re-
search board investigators Of that
country. The London Chronicle reports
that over a period of twenty weeks
the output was registered and
graphs" were made.
The workers gave their best on
Wednesdays and Thursdays, but the
output on Saturday was invariably
low. When doubled Ito equalize time)
1t is often less than 70 per cent Of that
on other days.
Another important conclusion was
that the skilled workman is much
more regular in his output than the
worker not so well qualified. He does
not get the stirred Saturday feeling
so soon.
In some factories the output arises
until Friday, but among the less skilled
workmen it was found that Thurs
day was the best working day.
An important consideration which
the investigators kept in mind was
that of the atmospheric condition in
which work is done. Records of the
air conditions have been taken with
the output records.
In various plants the Saturday out
put was so low that employers found
It improbable to operate, so they
closed down. From this 1t would ap'
pear that on a half day the worker
does not give the average Of a hall

MUST TEST COWS AT HARLAN.

Following the lead taken by the
Shelby County Farm Bureau, the
Harlan city administration has come
out with an ordinance providing for
the testing of all cows within the
city limits for tuberculosis, proyid-
ing milk from these cows is being
sold. All such cows, before their
product can be sold, must be certi-
fled by an accredited practicing vet
erinarian to be free from tubercu-
losis. The ordinance provides for
the first test within six months from
the passage of the ordinance, Aug.
Is, and for repeated tests at inter-
walls of twelve months.
All cows, the milk of which is sold
or offered for sale within the cor
porate limits, must be thus tested.
This will include not only the cows
within the city OF Harlan, but the
cows in the entire community from
which is obtained the city's milk
supply.
A fine of from $25 to 500, or i'm
prisonment in Jail for from ten to
thirty days, is provided for retailers
convicted of violating the provisions
of the ordinances.

HoovER,s STATEMENT ON
RUSSIA

Herbert Hoover is beyond ques-
ton the best authority in America
on the subject of relief work in Eur
ope. In communication to the
president of the Swiss republic in
answer to an invitation 60 send a
delegate to Geneva for conference
on relief for Russia Mr.. Hoover ex-
presses an opinion which doubtless
correctly interprets the situation in
that country.
Hoover makes clear In his letter
the only method by which perman-
ent relief can be extended to the
Russians. This is complete reorgan-
ization of railways, agriculture and
industry. So long as present con-
ditions continue, he affirms famine
will be an annual occurance.
Another feature of the situation
is the fact that the famine now on
in that country is so widespread that
it is beyond the power Of the COM
bined efforts of the people in the
whole world outside of Russia to
completely relieve. All the alliea
forces now moving to feed the Rus
slams hope to accomplish is to save
out of the million who suffer a cred
liable percentage.
Truly this CHASTITY exemplification
OF the fallacy of communism is
world staggering in its proportions.
1t stands on a par with the world
war as a world calamity. In all the
ages that lie to the fore the two
great evils which should be studious-
ly avoided everywhere are war and
bolshevism. One is as equally de-
structive as the other. If there is any
material difference the advantage
is on the side of the war.

TAX REVISION BILL PASSED
Bill Contains Great Many Changes
Affecting the People Of
the Country.


The republican tax bill was pass
ed at Washington late Saturday by
the house after the democrats had
failed in an effort to have it re-
committed for elimination of the
provision repeating the income sur
tax rates above 80 per cent.
The vote on the motion to recon-
NIT was 16 for, to 230 against. A
number of republicans from the far
eastern states Joined with the prac-
tically solid majority in supporting
the motion.
The vote on the bill, however, was
274 to 1875, with only a slight split
in the party ranks.
Defeat of the democratic motion
to recommit the bill with instruc-
tions to the ways and means COM
mittee to eliminate the provision
for repeal of the income surtax rates
above 32 per cent paved way for
the final passage of the bill.
A number of additional amend
ments were approved by the ways
and means committee which worked
practically up to the time the house
met at n on.
1t was then that the democrats de-
clared they would move to recommit
the bill, with instructions to the
committee to eliminate the provis-
ion for the repeal on next January 1
of the income surtaxes above 80 per
cent. Rejection of this motion was
generally conceded, with the under
standing that it was to be followed
by the final vote on the passage Of
the bill.
Getting under way without the
usual half hour. wait for quorum
to assemble, the house quickly put
through the committee amendments
as offered. The first one adopted
was that exempting pensions from
the United States for service of the
beneficiary or another in the mill
tary or naval forces of the United
States"
The tax bill passed by the house
Saturday includes the following pro-
visions:
Repeats excess profits taxes, eff
fective January I, 1922, a loss of
$3.50, 900.
Substitutes a normal tax of IL "
per cent on all corporations, allow
ing an exemption of $4,000 to yield
about sls,75O,OO0,
Repeats income surtaxes above
80 per cent, applying on incomes in
excess of 5000, effective January
1, 1922, loss of about $90,00,000.
Exempts s2,500 of married per-
sons income when it is not more
than $4,000, instead of the. $4,000
exemption as under existing law, eff
fective January 1, 1921, leaving I'M
changed the exemption, of $1,000 of
single persons. 1t allows $500 re-
duction of income for each depend
emit child. instead OF $500 ,as now,
effective January /, 1921, a total
loss of $4,000, 900.
Repeats transportation taxes (pas-
senger, freight and express), effect
i've January 1, 1922, loss of Sz62,-
600, 900.
Repeats numerous excise taxes
