.S-HOUR DAY STARTS
 IN STEEL PLANTS
300 Additional Men Needed at
 Gary to Make Change

Gary, Ind, Aug. 13.-The eight hour day in the United States Steel Corp. mills here becomes a reality to- day. The change from the two shift to the three shift system included at first only the blast furnace workers.
 Open hearth workers will be placed on the eight hour shift on August Is, 1t is reported and by the end of the year every worker in the Gary plant will be on the eight hour basis.
 As result of the change, the men will receive a wage increase of 25 per cent figuring on the basis of time em- ployed, but they actually will receive 80 cents day reduction in wages. Under the old system however they had to work four hours longer to earn $4.S0 than they will to earn s4.
 It will require the hiring of 500 additional blast furnace men at Gary to put the program into full effect. It Is estimated that in the United States 1t will require employment of 65,ooo more workers and an increase in the annual payroll of $45,Ooo, o,ooo.

True enough, our pet bandit wal badly winged by Rabat- Pilai and the activities of the Yellow Seven have been temporarily suspended; but while Chai-Hung exists there's going to be trouble on this island, and it's up to me to stop it."
 Where is Chai- Hung?" .a
 Chinese Pennington spread out his hands. ..e....
 Vanished from the face of the earth"
 Lost his left hand in your last stunt, didn't he?" queried the Com missioner. Wherever he happens to be, chai- Hung'll be thirsting for your blood"
 A heavenly smile spread over Pen Dington's boyish features. %
 T didn't do it. I only wish had. It was my chief of staff-Rabat- -Pilai who accomplished the dirty deed. He's dried the gruesome relic over the fire and carries it about with him."
 And the ring said Monica eager ly; the ring with the green stone?"
 He wears that. I hadn't the heart to deprive him of it. seeing that the bandit robbed him of an ear and an eye in their last encounter"
 Monica retreated to her chair and. folding her hands over one knee, gazed through palm-clad slopes to the riband-like road below.

 Coward"
 Not in tho least. Az a matter oi fact, once took a hundred dollar' from our monncled friend at poker and he doesn't altogether cotton te mel"
 A second later and he had disap- peared altogether, Mrs. Whey came forward to greet Major James Lacy Armitage.
 Delighted said the owner of the monocle.
 Wont you sit down7 inquired Monica.
 The major accepted her invitation and deposited himself in the most comfortable chair within reach.
 Where can stow my Xii? de manded Armitase, having satisfied himself that nothing was missing.
 You'd like to keep 1t all under your eye, I, suppose. I'll get my boy to see 1t into your room"
 T hope you'll be with us some time" added Monica, anxious to satisfy her curiousity.
 The major started.
 "I-er-I'm rather afraid not, Mrs. Whey. I've been sent here on a rather important mission and don't count on remaining in Borneo for more than few days"
 Armitage turned to the Commits sioner.
 What time d'you lunch ?" 1
 "One," said Hewitt promptly.
 Jacks bit of an optimist," ex- plained the girl. ITO tell you the real truth, we're helplessly at the mercy of our Chinese boy. MT. Pen nington got him for us. principally because he's somehow managed to earn the hatred of the Yellow Seven and of course he feels safer under the roof of the Commissioner of Police. He's good at his work but he, hasn't the remotest idea what means"
