Unemployment the crux.

A much happier view of future trade
prospects would be taken, even in
those industries showing greatest re-
vival, if there was assurance Of less
unemployment in the future. In fact,
there is a notable tendency to consider
that future business being transacted
now is largely built on expectations
when the element of employment is
not fully considered. This opinion APP
plies particularly to sentiment in the
clothing and garment industries. The
feeling there is that reductions have
been made which should encourage
buying this fall, especially as the re-
tail stores are showing an increased
disposition. to hand along savings to
the public. Unless unemployment de-
creases, however, manufacturers are
frank to admit that they will face what
may prove to be the equivalent of the
buyers strike.-New York Times.

B. & O. Mechanics Back.

With the return to work of between
1900 and 1000 mechanics furloughed
over three weeks ago, the Mount Clare
shops Of the Baltimore & Ohio rail-
road now employ, roughly, two-thirds
Of the normal force of about 5000, it
was estimated at the company's offices.
Including those at Mount Glare
5000 shop employees returned to work,
the others going back to shops at Cum
berland, Md, where 450 were put on /;
Keyser, w. Va, and Glenwood, Pa.
AS a result of the rail wage de-
cisiOn handed down in Chicago the
men went back at lower rates of pay.
The furlough was the third since
January 1. officials say it is not pos
sible to tell whether the resumption
of operations will be permanent.
Vernon Parish Democrat. (Leesville, La.) 1917-193?, 1921-08-04
RrltIsh strIke Averted.

The threatened strike in the Brit
ish engineering trades due to differ
ences on the wage reduction question,
was averted at the conference of rep
representatives. of the employers and the
engineers. The conferees accepted the
provisional agreement which had been
reached by committees representing
the two sides to the controversy, the
terms Of which will be balloted on by
the men within fortnight.
The terms reached consist Of wage
cut Of three shillings a week and ~
per cent on piece work, effective July
IL. There will be another similar cut
on August 10. The question regarding
the bonus granted by the ministry
of munitions will be taken up at an
other conference in September. The
employers, meanwhile, have been
asked to suspend the threatened lock-
out notices pending the result of the
ballot.

The first bottle Of Tanlac to reach
the public was sold just little over
six years ago. It's success was imme-
date and people everywhere were
quick to recognize it as a medicine of
extraordinary merit. Since that time
there have heen sold throughout this
country and Canada something over
Twenty Million (2O,OOO,OOO) bottles, es-
tablishing a record which has probably
never been equalled in the history of
the drug trade in America.
Fame Is International.
The instant and phenomenal success
which Tanlac won when it was first
introduced has been extended to prac-

May Set Minimum WAGE.

Governor Groesbeck of Michigan
and members of the state administra-
tive board are considering setting a
minimum wage for state employees
A committee, composed of Charles ].
Deland, secretary of state; Thomas E..
Johnson, superintendent of public in
structiOn, and Fred B. Perry, secre-
tary to the state administrative board
has been appointed to go over the
entire question of pay for state en-
plOyees.
Many stenographers and clerks have
been started as low as $500 a year.
The governor believes that every state
employee should have a living wage,
and he does not consider $500 ade-
quate.
If it is necessary in order to bal
ance up the expenditures, he advo-
Gates raising the pay of those in minor
positions at the expense of those
higher up.

start Up aopen shops"

twenty-five Albany master builders
and eight Troy contractors announced
that they would conduct their business
on an open-shop basis. The announce
ment was made after the Carpenters
and Painters unions had refused to ac-
cept a wage reduction and to agree
to work with non-uniOn men.
About 1000 men who have been
on strike in the two cities since May
"a were given a stipulated time to
agree to the employers proposition.
Their failure to accept caused the
employers to offer employment to car
penters and painters at 81 a day.
In their proposition to the unions
the employers offered the painters
IS21k cents an hour and the carpenters
S7 cents an hour.

AustraIla and 44Hour Week.

Judge Beeby, sitting at Sydney, N.
S. W., as a special tribunal under the
Eight-HOurs Amendment act, has de-
cided that a 44-hour week should be
observed in a large number of trades.
His honor has in each case recon-
mended that the "A hours should be
worked on five and one-half days, and
IN case Of agreement between the par
ties he recommends that the 44-hour
week may be worked on five days,
each Of eight hours and forty-eight
minutes, with liability on the employ
er for overtime. The decision evoked
great satisfaction from operative work
ers. There is to be no reduction in the
high basic wage which has been en-
acted. Employers are naturally pes
simistic about results.
