WORKERS SUFFERED LEAST.

L'Echo de Paris publishes !r its
issue of November 8, the results of
the study made by the French en-
gineer and statistician, Jean Rey,
concerning the distribution Of French
war losses.
M. Rey's investigations prove that
the liberal professions lost more
members by battle and disease than
any other section of the population.
No fewer than seventy-one thousand
persons drawn from among members
of the liberal professions gave up
their lives in the war, which is more
than double their due proportion.
Commerce and agriculture likewise
contributed far more than their
share-agriculture particularly. On
the other hand, the industrial workers
were called upon for much less than
their proportional toll. and the same
is true of the transport workers.
Public dictionaries likewise got off
very easily.
Now 1t is frequent assertion that
the industrial workers are in all wars
called upon to make the chief con
tribution to the casualty lists The
Socialists, particularly, are in the
habit of saying, "The bourgeoisie
save their own skins and take the
profits, while the workers furnish the
victims"
This generalization, L'Echo de Paris
points out, is not substantiated by the
actual figures. Certain elements of
the boureoisie - the professional
classes. and the shopkeepers-shed
their blood far more freely in pro-
portion to their numbers than did
the Industrial proletariat. Some

OLDER CONCERNS

During the war. many factories
and businesses were organized that
were given a foothold by the lack of
supplies for our military and our in
flated industrial needs. These COM
panies are sure to feel the changing
conditions severely and doubtless
endeavor to sustain their position on
the basis of "a price" competition.
And this means price without regard
to quality.
Many motorists especially" says
Mr.. Gielow of the Electrical Equip
ment company, who handle Willard
batteries here, find themselves in
quandary now as TO the proper
course to pursue when buying auto
mobile equipment. They are tempt
ed by the cheap argument but still
have confidence in the old established
factories who have developed repu-
tations for quality products. This is
the case with Willard batteries,
prices of which have always been
kept at the lowest possible level con-
sistent with a quality article that
has a reputation to maintain.

IMPROVEMENT 7

AKRON, O., Jan. 14.-(Special)--
Better conditions in all lines OF over
seas trade are looked Nfor in the very
near future, according to an inter-
view given by Charles E. Sparks,
European manager for the Firestone
Tire and Rubber company. prior to
his return to the London office Of the
company.
Improvement may be looked for in
several quarters, II would seem, and
these include Russia. whose collapse
and complete isolation for several
years has contributed more than
anything else to depression In many
lines of trade.
Things are better, also, in England,
according to Mr.. Sparks, and, though
an exceptionally dry summer has not
tended to lower living costs In some
directions. employment has material
ly improved and with bright pros
poets OF AN early settlement of the
Irish trouble, confidence has been re-
newed all the way around.
With Germany meeting her repa-
ration payments, France very much
more settled economically. and most
other European nations forging
ahead in their desire to get on firm
footing again. there is every reason
to expect considerable Improvement
in exports TO the old world in the
near future, says Mr. Speaks.

ANY "BABYING

I'VE welcome an opportunity TO
demonstrate the Chalmers" says r.
ID. Roper, because we are firmly
convinced that the Chalmers today
is by far the best car in its class.
And the experienced motorist soon
sees this when the Chalmers is DEM
onstrated
"The new Chalmers doesn't require
any 'babying.' Due to the new piston
construction Chalmers is ready to
render full service without having to
be broken in by it's owner or driver.
"Of course, the fact that the fuel
is preheated before it enters the CYL
inders has great deal to do with
the fine performance of this car.
The gasoline consumption is reduced
plug fouling and carbon formation
are almost unknown, and much less
oil lis used.
These points are of vital concern
because they greatly reduce upkeep
costs. And because the motor works
so we'll, wear is reduced meaning
long life to parts and lowered re-
placement charges.
Good workmanship is apparent
throughout the Chalmers. The car
is exceedingly quiet, even in the mat
and it's fine balance is evidenced by
the way it holds the road, even at
high speeds. and by its easy steering.
"a study of its construction and
the manufacturing practice used,
shows that the Chalmers is made in
a way equal to many cars selling at
a great deal more and that at it's
present price, which is but little
more than many small cars, it is un-
doubtedly a wonderful value in a
motor car.
'"That is why say we like to DEM
onstrate the Chalmers, particularly
to people who know good cars. They
see at once the superiority of the
Chalmers and that is why the

FARMING AND EIcl1T HOUR DAY


FARMING AND EIGHT HOUR DAY
There has been a growing belief in
rural sections that the farm laborer
should fare as well es the industrial
laborer in point of hours as well as
in the point Of pay. "Why should /
work ten to twelve hours day while
you work only eight?" the farm hand
asks of the factory hand. And, with
some variations. the farmer who owns
his farm and does his own work is
inclined to ask the same question.
In some parts Of Central Europe.
where they are trying to build new
economic heaven and a new earth,
they have endeavored to answer this
question by passing laws. Czecho-
Slovakia, for instance, passed an 8
hour day act and applied to to agri-
culture.
1t is interesting to study the re-
port on the workings of the law from
the international labor office at Ge-
neya. and the conclusions reached
by those who have been affected by
its enforcement. Briefly, it may be
summarized in tre words of DR.
Suchy, speak ng in the name of the
agricultural council:
"The act was observed only at first.
Both workers and employers have
now realized that it cannot be ap-
piled to agriculture and it is well
known that 1t is not observed"
The reason, of course, is simple
enough, and is explained by Inspec-
tor Kominek who says: "If the day
be taken as a unit, agricultural work
is not like factory work, and cannot
be adapted TO an S hour day or a 0
hour day. If bad weather continues
any one year, work has got to be
got through with in three weeks in
stead of six and the same amount of
work.
The act seems to have been applied
successfully in forestry work. in agri-
cultural improvements and public
utility work, but "one the whole"
summarizes the report, experience
seems TO show that rigid applica-
ton of the principle of the hour day
is impossible in agriculture. 1t is
principle which must be modified and
made elastic in order that it may be
adapted TO local agricultural condi-
tions"
So it seems that the hour day
doesn't work satisfactorily on the
farms of Czecho- Slovakia. That coun-
try is very far away, of 'course, but
farmers everywhere must take into
consideration the growing season and
the Weather.-Farm Life.

"RAD BOOKS SAFETY VALVES"

Do not confuse the high function or
the public library with that of the
reading divan which polices our cities
for us by enabling people to read
about crimes and vices instead of
going out into the streets and practic-
ing them.
Do not forget, either, that though
this Is a very desirable substitution,
it is the reverse of desirable in the
case of good deeds and virtues. Just
as reading about crimes does not
make us criminals, but rather causes
any propensities we may have in that
direction to waste themselves harm
lessly through the imagination, so
reading about high virtues does not
make us heroes and heroines; it
wastes our heroic impulses in pre-
cisely the same manner.
Therefore, it is very questionable
whether reading rooms should contain
any good books. Rather should they
be stocked with the Newgate Calen-
dar, detective stories, lives Of Car
touche. Lacenaire, Charles Peace,
Moll Flanders and all the most in
famous characters in fact or fiction.
And when the readers. in the dis
gust and safety produced by de-
bauch Of such literature, go to the
reading room librarian and say. For
heavens sake give me a book about a
saint or hero; amsick to death OF
those stupid malefactors," 1t should
be the duty of that librarian to say.
No, my son (or my daughter, as the
case my be-, the proper sphere of
virtue is the living world. Go out and
do good until you feel wicked again.
Then come back to me; and 1 will
discharge all your evil impulses for
you, without hurting anyone by a
batch of thoroughly bad books"

The ancient, battered hulks are deep
