new YORK CAP
MAKERS SEEK
4O-HOUR WEEK
Demand Flat Increase of
SIS a Week
tspeeIaI 70 rhe Daily worIserl

NEW YORK, May IT, Immediate
response to the striking fur work
ers' movement for national 40-hour
work week comes from the Interna-
tional Cloth Hat, Cap and Millinery
Workers Union in the formation OF
its demands ON New York cap manu-
facturers. The union is asking a flat
IS weekly wage increase for all work
ers as we'll as a stricter union shop.
1.-THE demand for the 40-hour week
is not specifically a demand of the
cap union" says ]. M. Budish, of the
union management committee and
Headgear Worker editor, "but is a
recognized general demand of the
needle trade unions. 1t is well-known
that the conditions of the work, which
compel the worker to sit constantly
at his machiae without opportunity
for relaxation, endangers his health.
1t is a fact that tuberculosis Is COM
mon among needle trade workers. In
justice to them, since the manner Of
working itself cannot be materially
changed, the working week should be
shortened.
Another reason for asking the
shorter week lies in the seasonal ma
ture OF all needle trades. Under pres
ent conditions, with the long periods
of unemployment, II becomes neces-
sary to spread the work out"
The short season, averaging only
81 to SO weeks now. makes necessary
the wage increase in addition to the
shorter hours. The union asks a
strictG union shop in order 10 pre-
vent the opening OF countless small
shops where the employer is a work.
er and expects all to keep up TO his
pace, altho they do not share in the
profits accordingly. Small shops, the
curse Of the needle trades, are most
dangerous to union standards.

NORGE REVEALED
NO new Land ON
ROOF OF WORLD
Travelled 1928 Miles
in II Hours
Especial to The Daily worker)

NOME, May II. - When the diri-
gible Norge landed at Teller, Is miles
north of here, it completed the first
journey ever made over the roof of
the earth.
The Amundsen-Ellsworth expedition
was the third to have reached the
North Pole. They were preceded by
Commander Byrd of the U. s. Navy
by few days who himself was pre-
coded by Commander Peary who made
the Pole seventeen years ago.
First Continuous Trip.
But Peary and Byrd went to the
Pole and back to their bases, retraeing
their journeys The Norge flew over
the Pole and continued on thru
hitherto unexplored regions North of
Alaska to Point Barrow
The trip from Spitzbergen to Alaska
involved 1928 miles and was com
pleted in II hours.
One important result of the voyage
was verifcation of the belief that
there was no land in the "blind spot"
north of the Alaskan coast. No land
was sighted by the observers on the
down journey from the Pole.
They were, however, annoyed by
heavy fogs after they left the pole and
it is possible they may have been un-
able to observe some lands they may
have flown near.
Nome Sore.
When the dirigible hove in view of
Teller, most of the Indian inhabitants
became frightened and ran away. The
ship was landed with but a few hands
and was brot to the ground damaged
after much difficulty.
Extensive preparations had been
made in Nome for the reception of
the explorers and the inhabitants of
the city were in very bad humor over
their disappointment.
The Norge is being dismantled and
shipped to the United States for re-
pairs. The ship stood the journey well
and tho some of the Orders were bent
and the gas bag rent in spots, Capt
Mobile, it's Italian commander, said
that the engines were working well
and that if it had not been for the
fog they might have remained in the
air for fifteen hours longer

WARSAW, May u. The new
Pilsudsk government has issued an
order for all fighting to cease. The
martial law that had been declared in
Warsaw and other larger cities Of the
country has been declared off. The
new cabinet headed by Charles BarteI
has taken the oath of office before M.
Rstai, speaker of the Siejm and now
acting president.
The new government issued a proc
lamation which said. it would carry
on the government under the consti-
tuition until new elections are called
for the selection of a permanent presi-
dent. An emissary was sent to troops
on the march from Posen in support
of the deposed government and it is
reported that a truce has been ar
ranged

Marshal Pilsudski gave brief inter

said it was his opinion that peace had
been restored. Just what the situa-
ton is outside Warsaw has not yet
become clear as communications have
not been fully re-established. 1t is re-
ported that Gen. Halter is continuing
his efforts to rally troops against Pill

(Cable to Federated Press and

LONDON, May II. = Negotiations
were concluded over the weekend
which permit practically all trades to
resume work today. The conditions
agreed upon vary in the different set
Elements, but in some cases, the work.
ers were given much the worst of it.
For instance, the lockers union lead
ers signed a contract similar to that
agreed to by the railway union leaders
on Friday, which permits "blacklegs"
to continue work and which gives
away the right in the future to con-
duct another sympathetic strike. The
printers have also signed up, and the
press is appearing.
Thus the general strike ends after
week of amazing demonstrations of
solidarity and power. The struggle
was broken off at time everyone was
confident of success and the retreat
was effected only at the expense of
much lost prestige.
Miners Still Out.
The miners are still locked out. They
are now left to carry on the struggle
alone. They win meet again Thursday
to answer Baldwin's proposals.
Cooks Reproaeh.
Il regret the fact we are left alone
to fight our battles" is the only word
Of reproach uttered by Cook, the fight
ing secretary of the Miners Fedora
ton. The feeling among the miners
is intense. The calling off of the gem
eral strike was hard blow to them.
What effect the last few days events
will have on the rank and file of other
industries still remains to be more
clearly expressed.
Two Alternatives.
Two alternatives present them
selves. VIII the memory of earlier
days of brave struggle and realiza-
tion of their strength in unity still
hearten and consolidate them and thus
bring increased numbers and. new
vigor to the whole movement or will
final bitter disappointment and a
feeling of futility and disgust bring
a loss of numbers and morale?
Upon the answer to that question
depends the future of the British la
Dor movement in the coming years.

INSTAILMENT CREDIT

An entirely new system Of extend. ing credit has been evolved since the end of the world war one In which millions are participating, In q former day it was only producers and distributors who had access to millions of credit; under the new system consumers likewise enjoy this privilege.
 Of course, We refer to the widely extended practice of buying goods on the installment plan.
 But the installment plan Of cred 1t differs In one important respect from the credit extended to produc- CTS and distributors. It is not pro ductive; In other words, 1t does not assist the buyer to pay off his in- dcbtedness; he IS not borrowing money in order to use the money to help him earn more money. Re payment comes out of current h. come. If the current income is re- luced then somebody suffers.
 Installment buying has resulted in a huge amount of goods being in the possession of consumers, instead of being In warehouses awaiting buy CTS, or on the shelves of distribut ors. AS installment buying increases credit extended to producers and distributors decreases, according to some authorities.
 The system is declared necessary in a highly industrialized nation It is essential to keep goods moving. and instalment buying certain has this tendency.
 But the real test will come when there is a business reaction; not a panic, but merely one of the periodi- cal slowing up of the business ma chine. Some bankers insist that widespread installment credit under such circumstances will tend 10 in- crease the distress. No one will know for certainty until the time comes. The way out of such a diffi- culty might be to extend the credit until conditions improve. Meanwhile the creditors-the sellers -- would feel at least a slight pinch, being in the position where they would De faced with the alternative Of re- decming unpaid goods or doing without the payments for awhile. Probably there would have to De more credit in order 10 tide them over.
