There had been considerable criti-

with taking an attitude of wanting
much. but being unwilling to assume
any OF the. responsibility. This gov

occasion to enter the conference on
near eastern affairs at Lausanne in a
formal way. but the existence of
American nationals and American
rights in those zones under considera-

right to voice for the protection of
such interests.

j. s. TO CONTINUE
RHINE OCCUPATION
Troops Will Be Retained at
Present Stations for
While Longer.

Although the administration inclines
to the view that American troops
numbering about 1000. should be
withdrawn from the Rhine, 1t was in
dicated yesterday at the White House
that they will remain for a time. at
least.
Specific reasons for retention Of the
troops there were withheld, but /. was
admitted that not only were the
Americans on the Rhine exercising a
helpful and modifying influence, but
were most welcome to the European
powers. In fact, 1t was said. this gov
ernment had received appeals from
nations of conflicting interests there
to defer withdrawal of the Americans.
Great Britain. Germany. Belgium and
France had all besought this govern
ment to retain its troops there, it was
said. The German ambassador, DIR.
Otto Wiedfelt. called yesterday at the
State Department, and 1T was later
understood he had again requested re-
tention of the Americans.
Although it was not explained why
the troops were kept, the suggestion
was put forward that the reason why
they had not been withdrawn was
substantially that there had never
been an auspicious time for such a
withdrawal, never a time when the re-
turn of the Americans would not have
lent too much color to the attitude of
this government. in world affairs. Such
withdrawal. it was said. might have
been taken as a gesture to which too
much significance might have been at
tached by friendly European powers.

the possibilities of the continuance
of such influence are greatly restrict

The Presidents statement. which
will be embodied in the report now

given out here today by the chair
Howe Of the National Research Coun-
Gil. Washington.
1t follows:
President's Statement.
"It Is a matter of very much graft
fication to me that the Federated
American Engineering Societies, Our
foremost organization Of American
Industrial skill. should have given
two years of dtligent inquiry, under
competent experts. to a subject which
is Of very deep interest to me and
important to the country
Il rejoice to note the conclusions OF
this great body of experts are ideni-
cal with those which ] have reached
1t has seemed to me for a long time
that the twelve-hour day and the type
of worker it produces have outlived
their usefulness and their part in
American life in the interests of good
citizenship, Of good business and OF
economic stability.
THE old order Of the twelvehour
day must give way to better and
wiser form of organization Of the
productive forces of the nation. sc
that proper family life and citizenship
may be enjoyed suitably by all Of our
people.
Urge Shorter Day.
This clear and convincing report OF
the engineers must prove exceedingly
helpful in showing that this much-to-
be desired result can be achieved
without either economic or financial
disturbance to the progress of Ameri-
can industry
In effect. the engineers found that
the tendency throughout the world
was in favor of the eight-hour day,
that the longer work day was socially
unwise and not economically neces-
sary; that more leisure for the ma
TONS workers does not diminish their
spirit of service or their efficiency
which rather 1t tends to promote: that
the weight of evidence in industrial
plants which have changed from the
twelye-hour shift to the eight.houI
shift is in favor of the shorter work
day.
