Irving T. Bush, who has been chosen
president of the chamber of commerce
of the state of New York, is perhaps the
best-informed person in the world on
terminal facilities, and operation of the
same. A native of Michigan, and edu-
Gated in the East, he was privileged in
youth to tour the ocean. quite under con-
ditions of comfort and leisure. Seeing
much of the harbors of the world, and
their modes of handling traffic, he began
a comparative study of the same, the re
suits of which he tried to make known
TO New Workers during the years fol-
lowing his return. Finally, to make
concrete what he had been teaching in
the abstract, he secured a 200-acre site
IN the Brooklyn waterfront, and began
the creation of harbor terminals and
,torehouses. The plant he erected is I'M
aqualled in the world, including more
than 100 warehouses, many piers, model
lofts and industrial buildings and 200
manufacturing establishments,

SIMMER IN WASHINGTON.

Law-making used to be a seasonal oc-
Now it seems to have become
a steady job. Congress expects to be
in session all summer the season when
Washington is VIGOROUSLY hot and sui
try and when the capital used to be de-
serted as a matter of course.
In this respect, at least, Washington
is far from getting back to normally"
For several years now the law-factory
has kept right on grinding out legislation
through the summer months, and there
is no sign Of a respite. And because
is in session, the President and
his cabinet, and executives generally,
get away.
The public, however, refuses to pity
in this sad situation. Yielding
all proper respect to the congressional
sense of duty which keeps that body at
work until its tasks are finished, the
public nevertheless does not conceal its
belief that those tasks might be finished
before the hot weather arrives, if they
were tackled in a businesslike way. II
is not volume of work that holds con-
gress so much as volume of debate and
dilatory methods and uncertainty of
mind With proper direction and APP
plication, all that congress has to do, ex-
cept in a rare national emergency, might
surely be done in cool weather, and
would be better In quality if it were.

SATURDAY. MAY 10, 1922.
A YEARLY WAGE.

\ new plan for a minimum yearly
wage for the garment industry is being
considered by the International Ladies'
Garment Workers union. 1t calls for
a9 uurupaymont fund to which both en-
yloyyrs a#d employees would contribute
.o5t tse ground that it is an obligation
"f the industry to provide for the regu-
lar workers "a guaranteed yearly compen-
=atjan"
IT seems that the average worker is
Idle about 100 days a year The pro-
nonant of this plan believes that if it
is put into operation it will help to sta
Billie the trade, and will make it imper-
ative for manufacturers to work out
means of making it more regular and less
~"aennal in its employment.
Thoughtful employers would be glad
10 obviate the seasonal nature Of the
rade because it would greatly lessen
the labor turnover and utilize the ma
chinery to better advantage. Frenzied
rushes followed by idleness are good
neither for a business nor for the human
beings engaged in it.
Whether the garment trades succeed
in carrying out this plan to satisfac-
tory conclusion or not, it seems to have
a suggestion for the equally seasonal
coal industry. Might not the considera-
ton of the whole coal business on the
basis of a yearly minimum wage serve
as a handle by which to take hold of
the situation?

The Gasoline Tax Question
est. Adams Messenger. J

Lieutenant Governor Foote, who IA
vOrs a tax on gasoline consumption,
must read with some CONSERVATION the
action of the Massachusetts legislature
in killing a similar measure introduced
down there. The lawmakers were OPP
posed to increasing the direct cost of
operating automobiles and are said by
observers to have been influenced in their
decision by the opinions of automobile
owners against such tax. It is said
that Vermont has an unusually large
number of automobile owners per thou
sand of population, and if they are as
opposed to an increased tax as their fell
lows in Massachusetts. Mr.. Foote may
regret that he included such a sugges-
ton in his campaign argument.
