the commission, "were large margins
of profits taken by tanners, shoe man
ufacturers, wholesalers, jobbers and
retailers" whose large earnings were

in their unit cost"

PLEDGE Of
SHORT DAY
IS BROKEN
Steel Industry Still Works
Many Men Twelve Hours.
a Survey Shows

Fitch has Just completed years
Investigation Of the ie-hour day In
the American steel industry
The Investigation was financed
by a trust fund left BY the late
Charles NJ Cabot Of Boston. who
was a stakeholder in the L. :.
steel corporation.
Always interested in labor con
ditions In the industry. cabot was
successful in 1911 In having made
an Investigation OF these conditions
by a stockholders committee. The
committee recommended abolition
Of the ie.hour day. as Il decreased
the efficiency and lcsscned the
vigor and Viun,y OF the men"
LEFT TRUST FUND
TO HELP W0RkER>
At hts death Cabot left trust
fund for furthering Improvement
OF the workers,
Despite the rccommendation'
that followed this committee prob,
IN 1918. Fitch. who headed the pres
ens Investigation. says in his report,
published in the current issue OF
the Survey Magazine
There are two traditional labor
policies OF the stec, industry 10
which tho u. $. steel corporation
stands officially opposed. Ry vote
Of the stockholders in 1912 the Il
hour day and the T.day week were
condemned. II was voted 20 accept
Recommendation that 7-day labor
should be abolished. no matter
what difficulties stood In the way
and that steps should be taken
now toward bringing 10 an end the
is.hour day
More than 900 steel workers
were interviewed In the course OF
the study. Three hundred and
sfxty.five gave detailed statements
Of their working hours. Two hun
drcd and nine;y-eight worked the
ie.hour day. Eighty seven worked
straight thru the week without n
day OF rest: IS alternated between
SIX and seven days week: 1--WE
got one day OF rest In nine.
sof those described as seven day
workers the majority had a long
shift OF rs or "a hours every other
week when the shifts change.
Nearly all OF the seven day men had
: regular ie.hour day
,SUBMTTED FINDINGS
FOR CRITICISM
Subsequent to the field work.
Fitch submitted his findings 10 the.
steel corporation for criticism. The
actual hours of labor Of men In It's
employ In August. 1919. the latest
figure available. were given 10 him.
These show .es.sss employees. OF
these 2sT.tss were waSe-earncrs and
OF the wage-earners fs6.s5s were
engaged In manufacturing. OF tho
latter 80 per cent or ss.Tit were
clAssed as working II hours or
more. that Is. they were is.hour
men working II hours a day one
week and 10 hours a night the
next.
But these statistics covered all
manufacturing processes" says
Fitch The abnormal situation in
the steel plants. the blast furnaces.
open hearths and rolling mills was
shown by these separate figures for
the Carnegie Steel Co:

Battery Man
Gives Advice
ToCar Owners

There are few battery facts
that every car owner should keep
in mind says Mr.. Burnel, Willard
Service Station dealer.
Zone thing he ought to keep
in view is that batteries are
bound to wear out in the course
of time, OF course, the better
the material and workmanship
the greater the chance or long
life, but wear ic ~Iways going on
just as it does in a piece of
machinery.
Another thing; the life of any
battery depends to a considerable
extent upon what kind of treat
ment it gets. Neglect, abuse,
and carelessness shorten its life
just as surely as you'd shorten
the life of a bearing by allowing
dust to mix with the oil.
I'm short, the responsibility is
just about divided fifty-ftfty be-
tween the car owner and the bat
terry builder. You have to get a
good battery to begin with and
you must take care of it after you
get it,"
