tiles Reported.

A substantial Improvement in the
production OF basic commodities In Au-
gust compared with that Of July Is
shown by tabulation complied by the
local Reserve Bank in its monthly re-
view Of business conditions. Those fig
ures show that OF thirteen separate
items of production, nine were increas sed,
one was unchanged and three slightly
decreased.
Iron and steel production shows for
the first time in many months" the re-
view sets forth. "a distinct improve
ment. The consumption Of cotton dur
ing August was the greatest In any
month since August, 1920, rejecting an
increased demand for cotton goods. The
woollen mills are reported to have suffi-
cient orders to insure full time opera
tions until spring. The production of
silk gods has continued to decline.
Mills In this district were operating at
about 30 per cent. of capacity in Sep
tember. as compared with 40 per cent.

LACKAWANNA ROAD
PUT ON 12P. G. BASIS
Quarterly Dividend Of 3 Per
Cent. Follows Remarkable
Showing in Net Earnings.

The board OF managers OF the Della
ware, Lackawanna and Western Rail-
road Company yesterday declared a
quarterly dividend Of per cent. or $3.50
share on its stock. payable October 20 TO
stockholders Of record October 8. This Is
at the annual rate OF IL per cent. or the
outstanding SS4.554 900 (S50 par) stock.
Before the company's- capitalization of
half its surplus and the declaration of a
100 per cent stock dividend the annual
rate OF disbursement was 90 per cent on
s42 .277.000 outstanding stock.
Although the recent market action of
the stock hinted that an increase in the
dividend might be made, the announce
nent yesterday was a surprise in many
quarters The stock after opening at 106
rose to 107 and closed there, with net
gain of 1 u from the previous close.
Although w. III. Truesdalc president
of the road. declined to make state
nient, IL was said by interests close to
the road that In view OF its conserva-
tive dividend record the action implied
that the board is confident of maintain-
ing the new rate in tho future. In the
Past the company has never disbursed
more than half its earnings to share
holders in the form of dividends.
Lackawanna's report to the Interstate
Commerce Commission for August and
eight months of 1921 indicates that the
current year will probably be the best
In its history from the standpoint Of
operation of its railroad property. In
August the company saved net operat-
Ing income of s1,297,055 out OF gross
revenues of S7.599,717. contrasted with
net operating deficit of s1,SST.625 and
S7,629.67S gross receipts for August g.
year ago.
For the first eight months of the cur
rent year the road reported net operat-
ing income of $7,s94,169 saved out Of
gross receipts of S57,374,406, compared
with SSS1,432 net operating deficit and
49.451.4S6 gross for the corresponding
period OF 1920. Lackawanna has not
merely improved it's net earnings in com
mon with other carriers, but actually
showed a substantial gain in gross op-
Grating revenues when most roads were
recording heavy losses in gross receipts
compared with year ago.

Is 1T NICHOLS?

Is 1T NlCHOlSl
The surnames derived from Mich
OILS are numerous, and almost every
country in Europe boasts of a we'll
established family bearing a sur
name of this origin. In England and
Scotland we have Nichols. Nichol-
son, Nicol, Nicolls, Nicolas. etc. In
Germany there is the surname
Nicolai and Nicolaus, while in Italy
there are Nicole, Nicoletti. Nicolini.
In any large city directory you will
find many other variations of this
origin, among them Nicoiosi and
Nicosia.
Obviously these surnames were all
derived from the first name Micro
las or one Of its many forms. This
in turn was derived from the Greek
word nike" meaning victory. In
the Greek first names Nixon, Nix
las, Nikodemus acd Nikolaos, we
have this root used IN different ways.
The last, Nikolaos, meaning con-
quering people, became the most
usual of them all, and this was
doubtless due to one of the seven
first deacons, St Nicholas.

P. R. R. Agrees
: With TRAINMEN
Working Conditions For
Those in Train Service
Adopted
10000 WORKERS
ARE AFFECTED

Notice has been given to the
United States Railroad Labor Board
that the Pennsylvania Railroad and
the representatives Of its employees
in engine and train service have
mutually agreed on regulations and
working conditions affecting these
employees. The employees concern
cd are the engineers, hremen and
hostlers. conductors, trainmen ana
switch tenders. numbering more
than 10000 on the entire system.
These regulations were negotiated
hv the representatives Of the en-
Moves and the representatives or the
,aanarement who are members OF
tho Joint reviewing committee OF the
PENNSYLVANIA System. This COM
noittee was established early this
year for the settlement Of all con-
froversiai questions involving the
.enployes in engine and train service
The eight representatives OF the en-
Moves who sit on this committee ana
who negotiated the new regulations
with the management's representa-
lives are the system general chair
men OF the four railroad prother-
hoods.
an The new regulations and working
conditio, . are in the form OF sys-
tenn sch thue for the employees con-
cerned. heretofore the men in en-
cine and train service have been
working under two different sched-
ules. one for the former lines east
and one for the former lines west
There were many points Of differ
ence between the two schedules and
many questions involved in each OF
the two schedules themselves due
TO the fact that prior TO and dur
ing the war the two parts OF tho
system were not operated as a unit.
When the Pennsylvania Railroad
resumed the management Of III
property March 1. 1920, however
the system was re-organized as
unit with four regions. When th'
employees in engine and train service
requested that a system schedule b'
established which would harmonic
y the differences between the existinl
schedules and settle points Of con
troversv within the schedules them
r selves the members Of the joint re
viewing committee assumed the tasl
and constituted themselves a sched
ule committee TO work out a new
+ arrangement.
In addition to this work which ha
been under negotiation for severa
months the members of the joint re
viewing committee have held thei
monthly meetings at which all othe
questions arising between the man
agement and the employees in thi
9 service have been taken up and de
cided to the satisfaction of all con
cerned.
The joint reviewing committee wi
n now also act upon any questions tha
s may arise in the application Of IN
