MANY CHANGES
SHOWN IN DAY
Of STEEL MEN
Number Of Working Hours Per
Week Greatly Decreased,
Say Officials.
BY international, New. Service.

/. Considerable change has been
made in the hours OF labor in the
steel and iron industry between 1910
and 1890. according to figures made
public by the Department OF Labor.
The report shows that in 1910
twelve hours per day were com.
monty worked by the employees in
the principal productive occupa-
tions of all departments, except
sheet and tinplate mills and pud-
ding mills. and by a few highly
skilled Bessemer converter en-
pioyes.
figures rs per cent of the employees
in blast furnace productive occupa.
tions in 1910 worked an average of
eighty-four hours per week, but in
that year various relief systems be-
gan to be introduced. These gave
employees one free day each week.
so that by 1915 only Al per cent of
all blast furnace employees were
regularly working seven days of
twelve hours each. and in 1920 the
percentage was reduced to 20.
A notable change has taken place
by the limited introduction OF the
eight hour day. which was worked
by IL per cent of the employees in
1920 for seven days per week, and
by l per cent for six days. THE
introduction Of the fifty-six hour
week, therefore. appears as a con.
comitant to the diminishing eighty.
four-hour week." the report says.
Working Hours Shortened.
mill employees worked less than
sixty hours a week. 20 per cent
worked an eight t-hour day, and an
equal number-laborers and un-
skilled workers chiefly-worked a
twelve-hour day. While the num-
ber working seven days of twelve
hours each in the Bessemer con.
verting mills had been reduced 6
per cent since 1910 there were still
over IS per cent of all such en-
ployes working twelve hours either
six or seven days per week. Twen-
ty-two per cent were on an eight
hour day Of three shifts, but these
are mainly the highly skilled em.
ployes.
Seven-Day Week Rare.
Thirty per cent of the open-hearth
furnace employees in 1920 were on
an eighthour basis, as compared
with l per cent in 1910. This re-
duced the twelve-hour workers
correspondingly from about 80 per
cent in 1910 to about SO per cent
in 1920.
The seven-day week has been
rare in the several classes OF roll
ing mills during the eleven-year
period. except--ain-~biooTni
and the twelve.hour day has pre-.
vailed much less in all rolling mills
than in the iron and smelling and
steel-making departments. the re.
port says.

PLANS DEFENSE
Of GOOD NAME
Citizens Rssent State Being
Pictured as Habitat of
Arch-Criminais.
BY ROBERT S. THORNBURGH.
international News Service.

HUNTINGTON, w. Va, July 29.
West Virginia is preparing to
launch a nationwide campaign of
vindication.
A long series Of Industrial trou-
bles, dating from the Cabin and
Paint creek wars in 1912-19l3, to
the march of miners against Lo-
gan county in the late summer Of
1921, has brought the little noun
tain State into disrepute through.
out the country.
Newspapers and magazines have
launched salvO after salvo OF abuse
upon West Virginia, characterizing
the State as a sort of habitat Of
arch-criminals and gunmen, ruled

Outside of the circle of mountains
and rivers which surround West
Virginia II is generally supposed that
the inhabitants are mainly mountain
desperadoes who pack" big auto
matics ION their hips" and who sit
in church with long Winchesters be-
tween their knees.
The Huntington Kiwanis Club
fired the opening gun Of the vindi-
cation campaign when a committee
was appointed to prepare an out
line of the publicity drive and to
enlist the support of civic and com
mercial bodies throughout the State.
Mountain communities have al
ways suffered because of their ro-
mantle character, It Is pointed out.
Chicago may be rocked with the ex-
plosion OF bombs OF an Industrial
war. band of highwaymen may
steal a half million dollars from a
New York mail truck-these crimes
are interesting and dramatic. Yet
they lack some of the picturesque
detail of the mountain crime. With
the Southern mountains as a back
ground. it's easy to throw In the
bitter feud, the muzzle-loading rifles
and the rendezvous in a wild, craggy
hollow for local cboIor.
All this makes for headlines and
front pages. b. 90
The life of the majority-the ordi-
nary town and country existence,
quite like that Of any other State
is forgotten for the depredations of
the minority.
A lot of miners have been living
in tents. They were inspected by
Rabbi Wise's committee. And, true
enough. they have suffered. And yet.
they are not nearly as unfortunate
as thousands of occupants of metro.

West Virginia is spending millions
for roads and schools. The develop
ment of the country. while naturally
difficult because OF the rough topog-
raphy, Is making progress, and
officials and leaders In Civic work
have expressed the hope that the
State will take its place with others

animosity and lend. rather than

the market in stocks has been all OF

in all the Liberties have been in large

of floating new loans in our market,

activity along these lines will be

"A great deal Of opposition to the
law comes from foreigners in the
inter-island shipping business. Such
opposition ought not to weigh an

Most Operations ClOgged.
1T is worth noting that in some
lines of goods NEEDED for immediate
use there has been an accentuation
OF activities, the effort apparently
being to provide against possible
complete or partial blockade of pro.
duction or shipment. On balance
however, the general result has been
further clogging of operations at
a time when, owing to the beginning
of the winter wheat crop movement
and the expansion of fall buying
operations. the freest possible move
ment is necessary. In fact, the busi-
ness world. and through 1t the
country at large, is faced with a
virtual strangulation of industry, n
possible fuel famine and winter OF
intense suffering having all the
aspects OF industrial warfare, which.
