AIM FOR EFFICIENCY
IN INDUSTRIAL WORLD

-
PITTSBURGH, Nov. 11:-Syste-
matte training Of workers to pro-
mote efficiency Is gaining ground in
American commerce and industry,
according to a report presented to
the convention of the National Per-
sonnet Association here today by the
Committee on Psychological Tests
and Rating Scales, of which DR.. e.
X. Strong, Jr., director of the Blu
reau Of Educational Research, Car
negie Institute of Technology, is
chairman.
The report, dealing with psyche
logical tests and rating scales as
used by the training staffs OF cor
porations, embodies results of a ma
seventy out of 1902 companies ques-
toned give instructions to their en-
ployes. T~hirty-one of these compa-
MES, which include industrial and
public utility corporations, life in
suranee companies, banks and rail-
roads, employ psychological tests to
measure intelligence, aptitude and
progress.
Twenty-seven companies "have
some proof of the value of psyche
logical tests and rating scales" "If
only the companies reporting train
ing work are considered" says the
committee, 1--WE find an equal per-
centage-fifty-three per cent-of
both industrial and public utility
companies are using psychological
tests, and approximately nineteen
per cent are contemplating their
use, whereas twice as many indus
trial OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES per
~~rO-t-- -akfn0 caaIns
as are public utility companies
thirteen per cent.
psychological tests and rating
scales are used today by a consid-
cradle number of corporations, and
it is very evident that their use is
being extended within those compa-
MES and to still other companies.
"A few companies are now salts
fed that these devices r really
worth while, and have incorporated
them as part of their regular ma
chinery of administration. A larger
number of companies are feeling
their way and are trying them out,
usually upon restricted groups OF
their employees. But the great ma
jority of companies are not using
them at all, although a few of these
are now interested and will try
them in the near future.
1T is clear that a high correlation
exists between the use Of these de-
vices and the existence Of proof of
their value. This should be borne
in mind by those who have main
tanned that their introduction de-
pend upon selling the manage
ment, and should emphasize the
need for clean-eut statistical evil
dence that they are worth while"
Members of the committee which
conducted the inquiry included
representatives of colleges, life in
surance, manufacturing, merchan-
dising and public utility effort in
New York, Pennsylvania and Chi
cago.
"Possibly," concludes the report,
'the most important functions to be
performed for next year by a COM
mittee such as the one presenting
this report are, first, to discover the
variety of tests now being employ
ed, and, second, to present such
data as is available proving the
value of psychological tests and rat
ing scales"

Our Industrial Community
VOLUME OF BUSINESS
GAIN IS OUTLINED

WASHINGTON, Nov. 1.-THE
general volume of all business dur
ing October was 1916 per cent.
greater than in the same month of
1921, according to an analysis of Of
fetal reports to the Federal Reserve
Board.
Debts to individual account
throughout the Federal Reserve
system in October totaled s3S,3S7,-
000, 600, as compared with but
s32,113,000,0 900 in october Of last
year.
Debts to individual account con-
stitute an accurate barometer of the
general volume of all business, ac-
cording to Federal Reserve Board
officials.
The Federal Reserve reports indi-
cate the progress made by business
and manufacturing in recovering
from the rail and mine strikes. Re-
ports dealing with retail trade coin
eide with reports on debts to indi-
vidual account, each showing in
creases that are proportionate. One
barometer thus checks the accuracy
Of the other.
The steady improvement in the
volume of retail trade Is regarded
as conclusive evidence that COM
modify prices will be stable during
the next few months. a condition for
which business men have been hop
ing long. Food prices are declining
and probably will continue to do so
for some weeks, it Is believed.
Business during the holidays will
be much larger than in 1921, 1t is
expected, especially since unem-
ployment is no longer widespread.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 11-Exports

eating 100000 tons valued at $780,

NEW YORK, Nov. 11:-A new

cars. This was an increase of 1880
over the previous weeks total and
with 146,070, the high
record for 1920, reached on Septem-
Der l of that year. The shortage in

BUSINESS CONTINUES TO
SHOW ADVANCEMENT

NEW YORK, Nov. 11.-Although
the of trade was affected
this last week by the election day
holiday, the general tenor Of COM
mercial reports received from various
parts of the country shows no es-
sential change from the previous
week, and, according to the mer-
camille agencies, evidence Is clear
that the main trend of business con-
tinues upward, and a basis exists for
the prevailing belief in further gains
to follow"
1.-The movement, however" &C
cording to Dun's Review, lis marked
by irregularities and contracts, ana
the recent feyerish activity in buy
ing in some quarters has not been
maintained. In considering present
conditions the fact should not be
disregarded that many trades and
industries have already experienced
decisive recovery from previous de-
preston, that wholesale prices have
risen sharply and that fluctuations
in demand are logically to be ex-
pected."
Bradstreet's says:
"A shade more of ir~regularity is
visible in the trade reports this week,
while industry sends advices of I'M
diminished activity in production,
and collections, aided by a little
freer movement of cars, permitting
heavier marketing of farm products,
are a shade better. While the ac-
tual visible effect Of the elections
upon trade volume has been merely
to restrict operations on n or two
DAYS. it would seem as if the events
of Tuesday, plus the rapid rise IN
prices of textiles, and particularly
of cotton and wooden goods, had
caused another effusion of talk as
IN the effect of the continuous ad-
yances upon the ultimate consumer"

ATTACK IS MADE ON
FEDERAL REGULATION

NEW YORK CITY, Nov. IL
Government regulation is almost
wholly responsible for the decline
of railroad development and exist
ing shortage of transportation,
Charles H. Markham, president of
the Illinois Central Railroad, told
members of the Railway Business
Association at the annual dinner
here.
For ten years before the war. he
said, unwise regulation kept down
turn of the railroads, although
wages, prices and returns earned in
other lines Of business were increas-
ing.
1.-THE outstanding fact regarding
the present shortage of Transports
ton Is that it has 1een met at the
very beginning of a period Of bust
ness revival" he said.
I'm this respect it creates a stu
alton unprecedented in our history
"a situation which should cause
every farmer and business man,
every railway regulating official.
err, to pause and reflect seriously.
"In past periods of business re-
vial the increase in freight bust
ness has gone on until it has
reached a point SIS to $50 per cent.
higher than ever before. We may
well ask ourselves whether, with the
railways finding it difficult to sur
pass the freight record of 1920, they
can be expected within a few
months or years to handle such an
increase in tonnage as past expert
ence shows would only be normal
in a period of general revival"
Mr.. Markham said the situation
is due partly to the coal and shop
employees strikes, but added that
the large contributing factor was
the more rapid development of the
production and commerce of the
country than the development of
the facilities of the railroads.

the extension department of the Agri-
cultural College. Widespread rains
having interfered with the threshing
operations, altho several sections of
the state such as Morton county re-
port drouth. Smaller Grain other than
wheat are going fairly we'll with oats
between 10 and so bushels, rye 20
bushels. Frost has done some damage
to the wheat and the corn altho in
most sections the corn is mature and
in the process of cutting and 4 great
part of the corn is in the silos, and
the remainder being cut for fodder.
Reduced yields in corn but the quality
is good due to the good care. Mead

FIRST LOAN TO THE
WHEAT GROWERS ARRIVE

Special to the Times Record.
| Grand Forks, Sept. 16 - The first
loan from the U. S. War Finance Corp
to the North Dakota Wheat Growers
Association arrived in Grand Forks
today, according to officials of the as
ISOLATION. 1t was admitted that there
were a few days delay due merely to
technicalities and officials stated that
ample finances will be available here
after to handle the business with des-
patch.
To date advances have been made
on over one half million bushels of
grain handled by the association. o.
ficials expressed regret that due to
misunderstanding the report has been
circulated that there was concerted
attempt on the part of financiers to
block the movement by withdrawing
support.
The statement made in the Courier.
News of Fargo this morning by u. L.
Burdick was given without authority
from the association headquarters and
does not express the sentiment of the
officials according to A. J. Scot, Sec
reary Of the association. He stated
that the U. S. war finance corporation
officials of the Federal reserve bank
of Minneapolis, as well as North Da-
kota bankers, had been sincere in their
dealings with the association. Efforts
will be made, officials stated, to avoid
as far as they are concerned, making
the wheat pooling movement a politi-
cal issue and hold themselves in TO
way responsible if this is done. Sign
