PROPHETS OF GOOD BUSINESS

would be interesting to look backward the period Of depression the country down from prices only to read the various predictions about the that industry might be expected to take It will be that most of these predictions based hope and that most of the who make them do of the charts and
 cs which enable the probable of the depression to be discussed with good deal of confidence, to its minimum duration
 Basicay deep industrial depression exists whenever large number of persons, usually employed without work without earning power with purchas The market modern state is the people who buy, and these the people who work.
 Just the depression in America is approaching it's deepest point depression Bridgeport reached its lowest point July and employment slowly increased to the Christmas holidays.
 At this time, however and somewhat before the outdoor workers laid off large part of the United States purchasing power of 100000 persons i destroyed
 This jolt given suddenly to the market will have the affect Of reducing the speed of and be fairly expect taking the United States whole the deepest part of the depression will exist just to April and that the actual to conditions will in April when outdoor work generally resumed It improbable that industry wholly absorb the workers who from outdoor pursuits In this yet fewer people buy will be just much smaller
 The greater part of the slump in the yesterdays for the before the upward swing much less than those that have gone before
 prevention of unemployment a large scale needs consciously planned remedies which yet country has vsed The Harding unemployment conference did somehing but nearly enough There is to suppose that indus trial pancs resting unemployment be sharply terminal ed but the for this require degree of social understanding and cooperation which has not been attained unless, perhaps in Germany.

CALLS LABOR
 RULING ''J0kE"
Railroad Brotherhood Head Says Ten-Hour Schedule Is Established.

(By International News Service.)
 Detroit, Jan 2.-Maintenance of way employees and railway shop Ia- borers have virtually been placed back on the old ten-hour-day sched- ule, according to a statement by B. F. Graible, grand president of the United Broth erhood of Maintenance of Way Employes and Railway Shop Laborers, with national headquarters here.
 'In spite of the fact that the labor board has again and again voiced It's approval of the S-hour day, a peru sal of its last decision, covering dis puted rules submitted by various rail- roads and their employees, show that maintenance of way employees, shop laborers and shop men have again MT. Grable. ''This class of employees. under the boards ruling. are not to receive punitive overtime until after the tenth hour of service. This part of the rules establishes an eight hour day, nothing but an empty phrase and more or less of a joke.
 Tn the rules promulgated by the ployes, the eight-hour day was as- sured by penalizing the roads for working men more than eight Hours. But the board has sen fit to discrim- mate against our men by eliminating their overtime after eight hours of service, which is a protection enjoyed by practically all other railroad em- pIoyes.''
 Commentng further on the rulings. MT. Grable said: These employees must work Sundays and holidays at their regular daily wage, while other employees are paid time and one-half. They are not protected in having the starting time defined within reason able limits, and are subject to any conditions the management may wish to impose. The disputed rules relat- ing to seniority and promotions are though a vast number of disputes on these questions were referred to the board it has remanded them back to the carriers and employees for further negotiations, thereby imposing an undue burden on the employees.
 This is the most unfair decision, for us, that has been rendered by the Railroad Labor Board since it's crea- tion."

HAIL WSC0UNT
 AS GOOD FELLOW

London, Jan. 2-Viscount Lascelles, the 39-year-o1d fance of Princess Mary, is tall and slim, with a blond mustache. He has a so1dierly bear man and good after-dinner speaker. Consequently, his contemplated entry into the royal family of England is regarded with popular favor.
 The courtship of the betrothed cou- pie, according to accounts, has been real love making. They have ridden together in Rotten Row., and have streets Country house parties at which the Princess has visited have in cluded Lord Lascelles among the guests. He was guest at Sandring- ham during the recent stay of the royal family there. He went shooting with the King and the Princess ac- companied the guns. It was here that the mutual regard established at earlier meetings ripened into some
 Lord Lasce1les approached the King before proposing to the Princes, and the royal parents, like any well-order- ed family, talked it over with their daughter. Princess Mary soon show ed that she was as much in love as the Viscoun whereupon the King gave his consent to Lasce11es paying his formal suit to the Princess.
 The Viscount won golden opinions when fighting in France with his regi- ment, the Grenadier Guards One of
 
 never lost his cheerful smile even in the hottest fighting; the only excep- ton being when tobacco ran short. "A baby millionaire and not a cigarette to bless n--self w1th,' he grumb1ed.
 He had successfully circunlvented many attempts made upon his single estate by matchmaking mothers and had come to be regarded as a con- flrmed bachelor. He was not supposed to be a ladies man and his tastes ran more in the direction of sport. He is hard rider to hounds and has lately established a pack in Yorkshire, of which he is the master.
 Lascelles in 1916 inherited nearly f2,500,000, was supposed to be the worst dressed man in the House of Lords. The rent roll from his Irish estates ran into f30,OO0 a year. The Lascelles' London residence, Chesterfield House, a. famous Mayfair mansion fronted with tall columns the headquarters of the League of Ma tions, until the League moved to its permanent offices at Geneva,
 Harewood House, the LasceIles an cestral seat near Leeds, is remarkable for it's 76 doors made of solid rnahog- any. which were made on the family s estates in Barbados. Most of the wealth of the Earl of Harewood, the prospective bridegroom's father, is de- rived from sugar plantations in the West Indies.
 Harewood House has a wonderful collection of china, valued at S1OOo,- coo and surpassed in this country only by the Windsor collection. The fam fly arms are two bears supporting a shield with 0 golden cross, with the | motto 'tIn solo Dec salus'' (SaIvation ! in God alone.)

 Minor cities in Illinois," explained Harvey T. Hill, secretary, make no development frequently because only one-half or one-third of the popula- ton can be producers. They must support the remainder of the popuIa- ton. The others must remain in en- forced idleneSs.

As an illustration MT. Hill pointed out the situation in West Franklin He said that there have been 1000 houses built there during the last year. but that the only employment is in the coal mines.

REAL ESTATE BILLS
FLOOD LEGISLATURE
Seldom Have So Many Vital
Bills Been Considered, Says
New York Board.

Seldom" says the Real Estate Board
or New York in statement issued yes
terday, t'ehas so much important legis-
lation affecting real property been con-
sidered by the Legislature as during the
last week. In the various committee
meetings the calendars were full OF
proposed measures favorable or unfa-
yorable to the owners of real property.
" "An attempt to make the drawing or
Geeds and mortgages by realty corpo-
rations a misdemeanor was unfavorabiy
considered by the Assembly Codes Com
mittee on Tuesday last. On the same
day the city's bill to perfect the law
providing for the closing of streets was
considered by the Assembly Judiciary
Committee and the Senate Committee
OH Cities reported favorably the bill for
the protection of Riverside Drive and
the removal of offensive structures on
the river front at that point.
"The Joint Committee on Taxation
and Retrenchmcnt held a hearing on
fourteen proposed changes in the tax
laws on the same day. The most i'm
pcrtant changes were the abolition of
the personal property tax. which would
mean a loss to New York city of be-
tween five and six million dollars year
ly, and the establishment of a business
tax of per cent. The latter would
apply to unncorporated business the
same kind OF tax as the one now paid
bv mercantile and manufacturing cor
porations.
THE proposed business tax is esti-
mated to produce yearly $20,000000 of
which New York citys share would be
so per cent, or $12.O00.0O0.
THE Committee on Banks on the
same day held a hearing on the propo-
sition to enable savings banks to loan
up to 20 per cent. of their assets on
mortgages. instead Of 65 per cent, as at
present

MOVE TRAFFIC OFFICE
TO PENN TERMINAL

The New York headquarters of the
passenger traffic department of the
Pennsylvania Railroad system. which
has been located for some time at 263
Fifth avenue. will be moved to the Penn
sylvania Terminal, Seventh avenue and
Thirty-second street. In the early '80's
the general passenger agents head
quarters were at the corner of Broadway
and Spring street. About 1885 they were
moved to $40 Broadway, corner of
Fourteenth street. In 1892 they were
moved up to the corner of Broadway
and Twenty-ninth street, now the site of
the Hotel Breslin. In 1904 they were
moved to 263 Fifth avenue.
Owing to the opening up of the sub
ways on the West Side. the existence of
surface lines on Seventh and Eighth
avenues. the operation of Fifth avenue
bus service to and from the Pennsylvania
station the erection of the Hotel Penn
sylvania, and the general change in busi-
ness conditions, the railroad management
decided to move the division passenger
agents office to 800 Seventh avenue, the
Pennsylvania station, occupying that
portion of the station on Seventh avenue,
between Thirty-first and Thirty-second
streets. which was until recently the
headquarters of the division freight
agent, who has moved with his force to
moro convenient offices in the new Cum
ard Building on lower Broadway.
