only could but did, produce in five days than
he could in six in 1914. At least this is true Of
eight important American industries which Stewart
has just finished investigating.
The credit goes to improved methods and labor
saving machinery. The automobile industry has in
creased niore-2OO per cent-in output per man,

list is the boot and shoe industry. with 1876 per
cent The other six vary from Is to 60 per cent.
Statistican Stewart began his inquiry following
the American Federation Of Labor convention in
1925. Before that, labor had protested itself salts
fled with Giving wage" The 1926 convention an
nounced that, thencefcrward, it must share in the

To determin what was Giving wage" it was nee.
essary to consider the wage with the cost of living
This having been answered. it was easy to de-
termine what Stewart calls the real wage"
When labor made its declaration in 1925, how
ever it became essential to ascertain besides the
wage and what it will buy, how much the workman
produces in return.
It was almost uncharted field, but the stats
tician has pushed his researches encrgeticaly. His
conclusion thus far is that the fve-ay week is No

company, before students Of the Pennsylvania State

Mr.. Elliott seeks to refute the idea often preva-

declares unsound economically and the way really

Snowy Owl of Arctic Region Species,
With Broken Wing, Added to Zoo Family

The snowy owl, whose customary
habitat is in the Arctic islands, and
which comes further south than the
northern border OF the United States
only in the most severe Winters, this
year has come as far as Washington
A wounded bird of this species was
sent to the Zoo yesterday from La
Plata, Md. 1t was found near that
town by Mrs. G. T. Carpenter, with
one broken wing. DIR. William M.
Mann, superintendent of the Zoo, said
yesterday that one snowy owl had
been seen inside the District limits
He is receiving letters from all over
the Northeastern States offering these
birds for sale or as gifts. The bird
received from La Plata probably will
recover and become permanent ad.
dition to the collection.
The snowy owls began to appear
in the neighborhood Of New York
City two weeks ago, and We're ac-
cepted as prophets Of Winter Of ex.
ceptional severity. This may not be
true. DR.. Mann says. Records for the
past so years show that there have
been three distinct invasions Of the
birds as far south as New England
at intervals of about Is years. In
1877 more than 500 were observed in
New England alone, and it is possible
they may have come as far south as
Washington that year.
The snowy owl is mottled, rather
than pure white. It Is peculiar in the
owl family due to the fact that it
sleeps at night and forages in the
day, mostly In the early morning when
Its camouf1age is perfect against the
snow. 1t Is an exceptionally shy
r fvN av%tf fvyft
tame.
In the Arctic its chief food is lem
ming, but it also kills and eats Arc
tic hares. animals twice its own size,
and any which come as far south as
Washington probably will prey on the
numerous rabbits, which live in the
brush about the city. Several of these
