Most of us are too far removed
from the real wOrkaday world to APP
preciate the everyday tragedy of hui
man waste. Nobody seems to care
particularly that the 100000 in ouI
coal mines, for instance, are idle more
than half the time.
The average aggregate of idleness
or the low percentage of full employ
ment in various industries, amounts
to about 1,75O,O00 persons being idle
all the time. This is based on a study
of manufacturing industries that en-
ploy 100000 persons.
This does not take into account the
two or three-days' periods of idleness;
sickness, much of which is prevent
able; loss of time due to accidents,
most of which are preventable; nor
does it take into account the turnover.
Probably 100000 men change jobs
on an average once a year. The
average loss of time between job and
job is two weeks. Most of this 7,0O0,-
900 weeks of lost time is unnecessary
and is pure wastage of men.
If the cotton mills of Alabama were
as efficient as the cotton mills of New
York, 10,514 persons instead of 49,
697 would have produced the cotton
output of Alabama in 1914.

mentary Science department in 1876
different courses.
These include nine in general agri-
culture, six in poultry keeping, five

in woodwork, seven in printing and
journalism. In metal work and ma
chine shop, each, there will be four

les, two in veterinary science. The
business side of things will not be

typewriting and two in penmanship.
Domestic science and arts for the
girls includes 10 courses. In the
English department II courses viii

consuming five times the number of
men which would be intelligently re-
quired. 1t is far better to stop vast
ing men than to let down the immi-
grafton bars and food the country
with more men to waste.
In agriculture the situation is still
worse.
The drudgeries in our industries,
which heretofore have been left to
cheaper men, must be removed. We
must provide a condition of industry,
including agriculture, in which man
will feel that their labor is valuable,
that what they are doing is worth
doing. We can not escape the con-
clusion that industrial wastage is
moral wastage; and l want to empha-
size the moral wastage which all this
implies. The habit of industry is a
moral right.

Calls for Second Reading of
 'Line Commission
By The Associated Press.


 London. Sept. s0.--Prime Minis ter Macdonald moved second read ing in the house of commons today of the bill providing for the creation of an Irish boundary commission without the participation of Ulster. The premier declared 1t was the essential duty of every government to fulfil its obligations. He said he resented the charge that the govern ment's move was an attempt to eoerce Ulster.
 Herbert Asquith. former premier and liberal leader, declared that the liberals would give the Irish bill their hearty and undivided support. Mir. Macdonald contended that whatever government might be in power would find no other possible course than the one he had been pursuing. After reviewing the events leading up to the Anglo-Irish treaty vital part of which was the ad- iustment of the boundary between Ulster and the Free State he said that the important machinery for the boundary adjustment was faulty and that, In consequence the whole agreement was jeopardized. The government now was simply seeking to find a remedy for the original de- feet.

STORMY SCENES
 IN COMMONS TODAY
Members Object to Mystery in
 Abandoning Prosecution
By The Associated Press.

Dy iHo Hrsoclhtcu frest
 London, Sept. S0.-Stormy scenes occurred In the house of commons today during the questioning of At torney- General Patrick Hastings with regard to the mysterious aban- doning of prosecution on the charge Of sedition of the editor of the com munist paper Workers Weekly.
 MT. Macdonald declared he was not willing to allow an exposure at this time of the real circumstance of the case and urged that further consideration of 1t be postponed until the regular autumn session of the house. To this all parties agreed. Thus, the case which has been more or less of burning topic since early August, will be taken up by the house next week while the house of lords is dealing with the Irish bill.
 Former Prime Minister Baldwin, conservative leader, hinted during the discussion today that the op- position might move a vote of cen- sure when the mater is taken up.
 Attorney General Hastings, ex- plaining the withdrawal of the charge of sedition, asserted that the communist party desired to make 8 martyr of the eiitor through prose- cution and declared that when he decided to withdraw the proceedings he had not been approached by any person, either a member of the gov- ernment or otherwise. Premier Macdonald, later replying to a ques- ton, said he had not been consulted in regard either to the institution or withdrawal Of the charges
 The attorney general concluded by stating that after thorough inves- tigation he had decided the editor was not criminally responsible and the facts of the case did not war rant prosecution.
