ANOTHER PROMISE
COMES FROM STEEL CHIEF GARY, WHO AGAIN
PREDICTS LONG-DAY END SAME OLD
STRING TO IT is SEEN HOWEVER
Plans of Trust For Shorter Workday Reveal Public Will
Pay Dollars For Pennies Paid to Workers

outside cost if the eight-hour day was
general.
But the steel trust would fitch the
people out of the difference between
$405 and 21 cents, while assuring the
nation it is doing great public serv-
ice
The steel barons are also assuring
the public that they are confronted by
a profound problem because of the
proposed change, although Americas
most famous industrial engineers op-
pose the 12-hour day and favor the
three-shift system, for reasons of hu-
manity and production.
The steel barons have not presented
a single authority in rebuttal Over
II years ago the need for the change
was pointed out in report of gov
ernment investigation begun in 1910
and printed as senate document
The report stated that there is
every reason to expect that an in
crease in efficiency sufficient to at
least Offset this estimated increase in
cost would follow the adoption of the
eight-hour system AS basis for this
statement there is not only the ex-
perience in other industries, but in the
iron and steel industry there are the
statements of the British blast fur
mace owners and the conclusive re-
suits of tests of the eight-hour sys-
TEN in American steel plants"

FLIRTING WITH FARM
ERS

Chicago.-Offcers of the Illinois
Manufacturers Association have ap-
pointed committee of business men
to consider holding an "anti-radical"
convention in this city
The purpose is to convince the farm
ers that disaster and woe await them
if they follow progressive senators
who are now found in both political
parties.
The anti-radical" campaign was
launched by John w. Glenn, secretary
Of the Manufacturers Association.
Mr. Glenn is spokesman for these anti
radicals, who oppose an eight-hour
day for women, who fight against any
restriction on Injunction judges, and
who attempted to foist new consti-
tuition on the people of this state,
which would legalize government by
the judiciary

New 4ork.-Another concession to
public opinion has been made by
Judge Gary, who reiterated that the
12-hour day will be eliminated "as
rapidly as the supply of labor will
permit" In a public statement the
steel trust head said:
"It is impossible to say when the
changes Will be completed 1t will de-
pend upon labor conditions at the re-
spective plants There will be no un-
necessary delay on the part of any
one.
Where the hours of employees con-
nected with continuous process are re-
duced from II to eight hours, their
wage rates will be so adjusted as TO
afford earnings equivalent to Is
per cent increase in hourly and base
rates
"All other workmen will be on 10
hours or less, and their present hourly
and base rates will be continued; but
wherever it is practicable, by pro-
motions or changes in position, the
daily earnings will be accordingly ad-
justed"
This statement means that the 12-
hour day will be iminated-some-
time, but the 10-hour day will re-
main; that wages will be increased
Is per cent for the 12-hour men who
have been cut to eight hours. Thus,
the 40-cent rate will be advanced to
as cents for those who have had their
hours reduced from r. There will be
no change in the 10-hour workday.
This is a clear announcement that
the three-shift system, so universal in
British steel mills, is far from a fact
in the mills of the steel trust.
In announcing a wage increase of
Is cents an hour to its 12-hour men
when the long work day is abolished
the steel trust says prices must be
increased This is the old trick Of
giving the workers a penny and max
ing the public pay dollar.
In 1920 Professor Horace B. Drury
studied steel plants which were oper-
ating on the three-shift basis. In his
report to the New York section of the
American Socieyt of Mechanical En-
gineers, Professor Drury said
ITO give all the men now on a
12-hour day 25 per cent increase in
wages and cut down their day from
y to eight hours, would cost a manu-
facturer of pig iron at the most about
q cents ton Pig iron sells for $40
ton (at time of writing) If all the
departments in steel plant were to
be changed from three to two shifts,
the increase in total cost for the fin
ished rail, bar OF plate could not, on
the average, be more than per cent" :"
On the basis of Professor Drury's
figures a general wage increase of 25
per cent, and an eight-hour day would
mean, at the very most, an added cost
of 21 cents a ton.
When Judge Gary made his latest
announcement on the long work day,
pig iron (gray forge Pittsburgh
grade) was selling for a little less
than $27 ton. A Is per cent increase
means that the public will have to
pay an additional $5,o5 ton, while an
acknowledged industrial authority in
sists that q cents a ton would be the

WON'T SURVEY RE-
TAILERS

Washington.-The coal commission
will not survey retail coal dealers,
as this can be handled by state and
municipal agencies. The commission
found that coal retailing is inextric-
ably associated with trucking and
storage and with the retailing of a
variety of other commodities. A ma
tion-wide survey of the more than
10000 retail coal dealers would cost
$2,0O0,00O, and even then results
would be unsatisfactory because of
conditions, the commission hints

sary if relief is to be obtained from
the shortage of labor
Fight on Law Futile
Easily the iron and steel industry
is one of the outstanding examples
that typifies this situation. With
plans now actively under way for the
elimination of the 12-hour day, the
problem of the industry has become
increasingly difficult.
'The fact may as well be faced,
however, that no matter how plaus-
ible may be arguments to relax the
immigration laws, every indication
appears to point toward the improb-
ability of such action by congress.
"The truth of the matter is that the
tendency is toward Tightening the law
There can be no doubt that industrial
interests as a class have become thor.
oughly convinced of the need of select
i've immigration, though on more
generous basis than now is allowable,
but running counter to this view is
that of administration officials and
many members of congress, and Pres
ident Coolidge is expected to continue
the Harding policy on this question.
Because of this it would be wide
of the mark to charge propaganda of
organized labor with complete respon-
sibility for restrictive legislation en-
acted and which perhaps is in pros
pect No doubt, it is pointed out, the
active campaign that always has been
carried on by organized labor for the
limiting of immigration has been eff
fective to a substantial degree, but

2 YOUTHS FREED
ON CHARGES
BY GIRL
Judge Thomas. at Clarendon,
Releases Carter and CoFcoran
in Miss Hayes Case.

CLARENDON, Va, Dec. u.s.
Charges of criminal assault, pre-
ferred last night by officials of Ar
hngton county against Ernest Car
ter, twenty-one years old, of 1881
Thirty.fourth street northwest, were
dismissed today by Judge Harry r.
Thomas, after hearing the testi-
mony of Carter and Herbert Cor
coran, seventeen years old.
Testimony at the trial by both
the witnesses which was cOrobOr-
ated by several character witnesses
showed that the girl, Blanche Hayes,
seventeen years old, 1919 Wisconsin
avenue, had voluntarily gone to the
spot In Virginia where the alleged
act had been committed. Carter
and Corcoran swore, under oath,
that no attack had been committed.
A dispute between Carter and the
girl resulted in her decision to walk
back to Washington, and it was
while she was doing SO that she
was found on the lonely road.
Police officials were en- route TO
another part OF the county to make
a raid, when they happened upon
the girl, who made the accusations
against Carter, resulting In his
arrest. Officers who arrested the
youths are Howard SmOot, Bruce
Smoot, p. 7. Toland, Herbert Mar
cey and E. B. Ross.
Miss Hayes, who was taken home
last night by the county authefi-
ties, said she met the two boys in
Georgetown. She said she had
known them for two months. They
drove her about the city, she said,
and finally took her into Virginia.
When Carter is alleged to have
ATTEMPTED to attack her, she says
she screamed and escaped from
the machine.
