SH EDEN UNDERGOING
BIG READJUSTMENT
Factories are Closing Down and Wages
are Being Re-
duced,

Stockholm, Jan. l9-Sweden, Ike
the United States, is undergoing pc
riod of economic readjustment involv
ing the closing down of factories and
reduction of wages in an effort TO cut
the cost of production.
Swedish manufacturers declare they
are compelled to do this in order Ia
place their manufactures on level
which will enable them TO compete
with German, American and English
production. Many of the factories and
mechanical lines began in December to
dismiss their workers gradually 10y
laying off 10 TO 20 per cent of them
weekly. When the employees inquired
why this was done they were informed
that the scale Of wages averaging the
equivalent Of $40 a day at the pres.
ent rates of exchange must be cut.
They were told that unless they ac-
cepted such a reduction the shop would
be closed.
In most eases the workmen refused
and the factories were shut down for
part Of this month; but reaction
against this policy became noticeable
before the beginning of the new year
New agreements between employers
and workers usually are made in many
lines at the beginning of the wear.
This time there was a collision Of the
workmen's demands for higher wages
with the employers announcement that
they would have to be cut.
Swedish employees now have no fear
Of strikes but, on the contrary. say
they would welcome them because Of
lack Of orders and duh prospects which
seem 10 be likely 10 result in further
dismisssls Of thousands of workmen.
Attempt on the part Of America 70
exclude or reduce the number Of i'm
migrants is reported to have had an
influence in producing a conciliatory
frame Of mind among the workmen
Heretofore the Swedish worker has lad
America 10 fan back on in case Of la
Dor troubles at home. Now he j. bc.
ginning to doubt whether he will con.
.inue TO enjoy this opportunity TO
amigrate.

Leaders of Unemployed in Great Brit

Not Enough.

London, Jan. ls.-The proposal b,
the government to alleviate unempioy
ment by big roadmaking and house
building schemes and other work Of
public utility is called inadequate by
the leaders of the unemployed
Official returns give the number Of
registered voorhees, in the United
Kingdom on Dec. 10 as sol ,O74, an in
crease of 1921 during the preceding
fortnight. London alone accounts foi
l4l ,533 and the proportion of men Il
women out of work is roughly as
Three to one.
Labor leaders say these figures are
incomplete. They declare that at
least $4,000 other manual workers and
as many clerical workers are out Of
jobs, though not or the government
books These would bring up the
voorhees, army to well over 100000
and, counting their dependents, a
total is arrived at of close upon 1900
900 sufferers from lack of work in one
way or another.
Clamor for reopening trade with
Russia is growing and the chairman
OF the London unemployed council has
told the Associated Press representa-
tive that by acting in concert with all
other labor organizations. they were
confident of being able to force the
government hands.
If an American business man is

Enlargement of the Columbia In

chase of six acres of land on Mt.
Olive road is recommended by Secre-
tary Of the Interior A. b. Fall, In the
annual report of the institution filed
with Congress yesterday. An. appro-
priation of $4,000 is asked for the
purchase price of the land.
A refrigerating plant to cost $1,000
is also asked for the Institution for

900 is asked. while $124.o00 will be
needed for the operation Of the school
for another yeT.
The most pressing need, the report
says, is more adequate salaries for
employees, since they are now receiv-
ing $40 to SIS less per month than is
paid in similar positions here.

SANTAS WARNED
BY FIRE CHIEF
To TRIM Boards
Whiskers Considered as Hazard
BY Watson-Spray for Dec
orations Urged.

Among other things inflammable
that are to be taboo during the
Christmas holidays are Santa Claus
whiskers. The hirsute adornment
may be the cause Of devastating
conflagration. according to Fire
Chief George Watson, and so 1t must
be dispensed with. Watson is not
particularly concerned whether
Santa visits a union or nonunion
barber. but the locks must be sep
arated from his jolly face.
The following fireproofing prep
aration is suggested by the fire
chief: Two ounces of carbonate Of
soda. two ounces of ammonia car
Donate, two ounces. of boric acid, and
five gallons of water. This mixture.
he said, should be literally sprayed
over inflammable ornaments used in
Christmas decorations.
A vigilant watch will be kept by
members of the fire department over
department stores where Illuminated
decorations are on display. Aisles will
be kept clear SO that in case of
emergency the movement of patrons
will be facilitated.

Perfect 36? It Would
Look Just Like
Deformitv

CHICAGO, Dec. 7.-Where, oh
where, is the perfect SO" Of
mothers girlhood! Chicago cos
tuners and fashionable dress
makers say there simply isn't such
a thing today. It may be due to
fashions, especially in corsets, ath-
letics or dieting.
The Junoesque type, too, is dis
appearing. Of all the shames Of
these days, to be a stylish stout Is
the most shameful.
The eighteen-inch waist went
with the perfect SO, of course, and
the nearest any girl comes to hav-
ing an eighteen-inch waist these
days is when she is about two
months old, according to Chicago
dressmakers.
Chicago pattern companies, it
was said, /ilave changed waistlines
around. Size SO is the best seller,
but it is a SO with 28-inch waist.
Madame Marguerite, Chicago's
leading modiste, says:
"But the figure is so much more
natural today than it has been in
generations. The homeless corsets,
or those made of soft, pliable mate
rial, have expanded the waist and
made a straight instead Of
roundly curved hipline. AS for the
perfect Sc? Why, it would look
deformed among the fashions of
today"

DECREASES, SAYS
DEPT
Widespread Building Boom Also
Evidenced in Latest
Survey.
ny International News Service.

A widespread building boom, stimu.
lated by President Harding's recent
unemployment conference, and q
greater output of iron and steel las
resulted in Improvement in Industrial
and commercial conditions, according
to figures published today by the de-
jartment of Commerce in its Survey
of Current Business"
The department noted a further de-
cline Of prices during October, but on
much smaller scale than earlier in
the year. The relative stability Of
prices and the improved banking stu
alton, as evidenced by increased re-
serves, smaller loans and improved
interest rates, are considered favor
able to further business improvement,
the survey stated.
Low prices of agriculture products
and the consequent decreased buying
power Of the farmers Is held ky the
department to be the most serious
drawback to a 100 per cent business
revival.
