COMMERCE BUREAU
WORKING OVERTIME
Director Klein Asks Funds to
Provide for Service Pay
ing SixtyfoId.

The fourfold growth Of the Bureau
Of Foreign and Domestic Commerce
in aiding manufacturers, firms and
farm co-operatives. and aiding the
spread Of American business abroad
involved a heavy increase in the
overtime work required Of each men,
Der of the staff in the fiscal year
1925, notwithstanding successive ex'
pansions Of funds and personnel, Dr.
Julius Klein, director OF the bureau
declared In his annual report To-Day.
The overtime work now required mas
already reached the danger point. ne
said. ~
For each smploye in the branch Of
fees of the bureau in the united
States, the time required after hours
and on Sundays and holidays totaled
the equivalent of more than II work
ing days last year without compensa-
tion. In the case Of the staff abroad,
this overtime for each emplOye ex.
ceeded an equivalent Of 27 working
days.
Fluctuations In Service.
Unless provision is made to re.
lieve this pressure" DR.. Klein said,
"the high quality Of service, which has
been maintained in recent years with
increasing difficulty, Is bound to de-
teriorate. In one branch of the or
ganizatiop the information services
rendered by each employe averaged
1905 in 1922 and rose to the total of
20,757 in 1925.
This total was quite evidently be-
yond the capacity of this section Of
the staff, for it's output in 1928 fell
70 ~vaf< r,i<
loss in services for the trades con-
cerned. This deterioration is all the
more deplorable, in view Of the record
for dollars and cents service and rev.
enue producing trade promotion. which
the organization Is now performing, as
indicated by details given in the re.
port"
DR.. Klein said the Investment" by
the American taxpayer in the foreign
trade promotion work Of the Com
merce Department, involving an an.
nual Appropriation Of about 100000.
was returned more than sixtyfold dur
ing the fiscal year by one single item
alone on its list of activities-the new
foreign business secured for individual
American exporters approximating
$189, 1915 900.
American Goods Abroad.
Prospects for increased sales of
American goods in world markets are
encouraging. DR.. Klein said. It is
now clear that the growth Of export
trade. from the low point of postwar
depression in 1922 has been Of
normal character and due to causes
which bid fair to continue. Varied
phases of trade-promotion activity,
and many specific instances of the
helpfulness Of commercial attaches
are reported by the director.
Strengthening Of the present staff
to curtail it's excessive overtime and
the addition of Is more officers to the
62 now existing at home and abroad
is reported as necessary to permit
more efficient collection and distribu.
ton Of commercial information for the
growing number of American firms
demanding accurate and timely infor.

By tho Associated Press,

By tho Associated Press.
BRIDGEPORT, Conn.,, November
22.-The Anglo-Saxon race is too con.
ceited, Bishop Edwin H. Hughes Of
Chicago said yesterday in a sermon
from the pulpit Of the First Methodist
Episcopal Church.
1T is true that the United States
is the wealthiest and most powerful
nation that ever graced the face of
the earth, but the Anglo-Saxons of
America, who claim most Of the credit,
seem to forget it was not so many
hundred years ago that their ancestors
were little better than animals" the
Bishop said.
''The negro Of America deserves un.
told credit and holds a very good
claim to the title Of the real Ameri-
can," said Bishop Hughes, in dis
cussing the negroes of America.
Negro blood has. been shed in every
war in which the United States has
participated, and no negro has ever
been known to have been an exponent
Of anarchy"

Today's Republican contains quite a
detailed report of the activities of the
Oakland Civic Club, covering the per-
iod from its organization in 1911 to
the present. The report, prepared by
Miss Thekla c. Fundenberg, contains
information concerning many impor-
tant things accomplished by the club
and which in all probability has es-
ceped the memory of some of the
most observing residents of town.
During the wind storm which swept
over this section of the country last
Thursday afternoon and evening and
continuing well into Friday morning
slight property damage resulted at a
various points in town. The top of a
chimney on the Treacy building was
blown off and the brick falling to the
ground barely missed striking a pas
ser-by. A large sign of the Oakland
Garage supported by two poles along
Second street was demolished and at
the Park a cottage was partly I'M
rooted.
Recently it developed that both
of the Fundenberg houses located on
Crooks Crest had been entered and
the properties ransacked for valua-
bles. In both cases the houses were
entered by the prying open of Win
dows. In one of the dwellings flash
light was left behind by the burglar
or burglars indicating that perhaps a
hurried flight was necessary to avoid
detection.

widow of the iata Rev. Nathan Hart,

tives and friends occupying number
