New York. May 11.-Officials Of unions representing 30,ooo unskilled d workers in the newsprint paper mak ing industries conferred today with manufacturers as to whether they would accept or reject proposal 10 abolish their international wage scale.

 Upon the outcome of today's con- ference will depend the life of the or ganization among unskilled paper men in the industry it was asserted. Since the unionized craftsmen have agreed to leave them out of consider alton in future wage negotiations the manufacturers are now in position to enforce their demand that unskiled labor be paid at going rates by local ities, union officials declared.
 Four Firms Bolt.
 Reports that four of the larger companies had bolted from the man. ufacturers' organizations were corrob- orated this morning by officials of the companies affected.
 The Pejepscot Paper Co. settled on these terms:
 A five per cent reduction in the wages of all skilled labor and min- imum scale of 35 cents an hour for unskilled day workers. Shift workers. unskilled, will remain at minimum of 3S cents an hour, but will be re- classified according to a graded sys- tenn. The total average reduction will be approximately IA per cent.
 The Great Northern Paper Co. set tied on a basis of an average of IS per cent reduction. This. however, is proportionately smaller than the re- duction offered by the Peiepscot Co., because it is the first to take place in two years.
 Other Settlements.
 The Spanish River Paper Co., settled on practically the same scale, con- tinued in the old contract. They op- crate mills at Spanish River, Espanola and Saul Ste. Marie, Ontario.

.. s. REPRESENTATIVE HOMER p. SNYDER
tNEw YORK;

The Republican administration came
into authority in March, 1921, pledged
to put more business in government
and to have less Of government In
business. That pledge has been lib
orally redeemed. One of the first
things which the Republican admins
tration did was to impress upon
business interests that 1t was up to
them to become self-reliant II they
wished to become self-sustaining;
that they must begin to work out their
own salvation instead Of running to
the Government for artificial stimulus.
Legislation has been enacted wherever
1t could prove helpful, but 1t has not
been permitted to take the place Of
individual energy and thrift.
simultaneously with the elimina.
ton Of Government in business there
was an injection of business in Gov
eminent. Perhaps what will go down
as one Of the greatest pieces of con-
structive legislation Of the last half
century was the enactment of a law
creating Budget Bureau, which
made 1t not only possible but man
datory for the first time in the his
tory of the United States Government
to conduct the Governments business
in an orderly manner. 1t is largely
due to the inauguration OF this bud
get system that the daily operating
expenses of the Government have
been reduced in the aggregate ever
S2,000.000 day under this admins
tration.
The business Interests of the coun-
try were given consideration in the
enactment Of the new tax measure.
Surtaxes were decreased, excess profits
taxes were abolished altogether, and
the shipping interests OF the United
Stats-whieh include practically every
business and industry--were relieved
from the burdensome transportation
taxes that were levied upon freight,
express and passenger traffic

"Ads" and Business Locations. 80

ness.
Although no act of Congress figured
in the process. nevertheless. the in
fiuences Of the Republican admins
tration, Of which the Congress is a
part, gave such confidence to the
business world that within year
from the time the Republican party
took control of all branches Of the
Government prices of practically all
sound securities advanced materially
The most outstanding example OF this
is the increase of Is per cent. in the
value of s1S,O00,O0o,0o0 worth Of out
standing Liberty bonds.
As another reflex of the influence of
the Republican administration, inter-
est rates have been lowered from z
per cent to Az within II months, thus
releasing money at reasonable rate
for the use of business interests.
No one has the temerity to deny tina.
business conditions today, compared
with year ago, are not infinitely bet
ter and that prospects are undoubted-
ly for further Improvement. There is
no other explanation for this trans.
formation in the business world ex'
cept the u months application of Re.
publican policies and the certain
knowledge throughout the business
world that the influences and policies
of the Republican Party, which will
direct the affairs of the nation for the
next two years, are constructive in
fiuences that make for accumulation
rather than waste, assist legitimate &C
tivities, stand four-squared for the pro
lection of capital and labor and stand
equally firm against the fallacious
theories Of Communism and Social
ism.
In brief, the commercial optimism
with which the people of all classes in
the United States face the coming
year must be wholly attributed to the
fact that all branches of the Govern
ment of the United States are now II
control of the Republican Party.

A new method of keeping hay
without curing it in the sun has
been worked out in Switzerland.
The newly moved hay is stored on
metal sheets in silos of 400 feet
capacity. Another metal sheet
closes the top of the silo and the
two sheets are connected in an
electric Circuit, SO an alternating
current of from 200 to 500 volts is
passed through the grass between
them. This enables the grass to be
preserved in its natural state until
required. 1t can be cut and stored
irrespective of weather conditions
and it contains twice the nutriment
of an equal quantity of hay.
