Of piece workmen," Whittier said, add

became uniformly noticeable when it

agreements permitting the employment
as car repairers of only those men who
have served an apprenticeship in the
car department or who have had four
years practical experience on car work,
Mr.. Whittier said, results in waste

Chinese is Hard;
Lack Of Teachers
by Associated Pressl

San Francisco.-T chief difficulty
with the Chinese language is that it
has lacked proper teachers, according
to Principal W. B. Pettus of the North
China Union Language school which is
teaching Americans in less than a year
to converse freely in a tongue once
supposed to be beyond the reach of
the ordinary Yankee. More than 200
Americans, business men, legation at
taches, consular employees and mis-
sionaries are learning the language in
this school with the result, according
to Pettus, that the Americans are put
ting the "inside track" on Chinese
business. The Chinese government,
recognizing the value of the school,
has granted it a 3-acre site inside the
walled city, said Pettus on his arrival
here recently from Picking. He is on
years leave of absence and expects
to spend the time soliciting funds to
support the institution, which already
has received a $4,000 gift from the
Rockefeller foundation. Pettus is a
nephew of the late Senator Pettus of
