Practically a Wage Cut,
Say Workers
by CARL HAEssLER,
Federated Press.


DETROIT, Oct. 5.-(FP) - Wage
juggling is as Vicious an element in
the Detroit automobile labor situa-
ton as is direct wage cutting, labor
men in the motor capital Of the world
declare. When an employer like
Henry Ford makes his exhausted
workers produce in five days what
they were hitherto putting out in five
and one-haIf, and pays them for five
days instead of five and one-haIf, it
Is pretty tough to have haf-baked nit
wits all over the country hail this
latest sweating device as another step
TO the social millennium. At least that
is what .Ford's sweatshop victims
think. OF course there is a "merit
bonus" Unfortunately the merton
ious worker is a rare animal.
Demand Below Supply.
"The trouble in the trade at the
present time" says Arthur Rohan. in
coming executive secretary Of the
United Automobile Workers, is that
the demand is falling below the sup
ply and considerably below the nor

Rohan's organization, which used to
be in the American Federation of La
Dor but was suspended in 1917 for
enrolling within its Industrial hospital
lily workers claimed by other interna-
ticnals. has received q friendly letter
from Pres. VIM. Green, promising to
take up the question of how the union
can rejoin the mother body. Industrial
unionism has become a more fav-
ored solution for organizing auto
workers in recent years than when
the 1917 Buffalo convention ousted
the Ur.ted.

Green's attack was inspired by pub

notification to labor leaders OF this

Owners Whose Machines Are Altered in Looks Warned

Hartford, March 12 P)-The state motor vehicle department calls at tention today to the state law which requires all persons in whose name motors cars which are now being brought forth from paint shops and garages with new coats of paint to notify tho department of Iany substantial change in the ap- pearance or mechanical equipment of their cars.
 The law applies to the painting of cars, if the color of the body or of the running gear has been changed or the appearance altered in any way ''so that such motor vehicle shall no longer conform to the description contained in the appli- cation for or certificate of rcgistra- ltion."

SPLICING CABLES
 THRILLING TASK When Ocean Wire Breaks Job
 Is PerilOuS One

Now York, March 1g-strctching out and away like q tiny thread of life itself, the transatlantic cable from Cape Cod to Brcst usually con- meets the old world with the new.
 Freighted with messages of vital importance to man, this slender bridge S,200 miles long lies deeply buried in the eternal darkness of the sea. There 1t whispers its mes sages Of life. love, death and de- struction to the unsympathetic waves.
 But sometimes it breaks! When this happens there is much concern in the offices of the French Cable compnny-a breathess sus- pense while delicate instruments are locating the break. Often it is near tho middle of the ocean. and when the break Is located the cable repair ship Edouarl Jeramec Is de- I spatched to the scene.
 A marine oddity. the Jeramoc is one Of the finest cable chips anoat. Huge tanks below decks house 250 miles of deep sea cables. Graphing hooks of all descriptions weighted to sink them three miles below the surface. arc slowed properly away. Buoys to mark tthe ends of cable when located. are flashed on deck. Powerful winches fore and aft, are ready to reel in or out the heavy strands.
 It is hcarthroaking work, this locating the broken ends of a deep sea cable, Captain Julien LeMartclu and his crew will assure anyone. In Europe and America cable trans mission Is hindercd while tho Jcra- mec stcams slowly back and forth, | groping about the ocean floor. Rowling winds and flashing seas must be disregarded, Huge lights transform night into day, and the work continues.
 Often the cable is located and the business of bringing it to the sur 1 face, a matter of eight hours work, is begun. And often it almost reaches the deck Of the ship, only to break again, and slide mockingly back to its resting place in the mud and slim of the bottom.
 Storms, too. add their fury to set at naught tho work of the S5 sailors who man the Jrramec. A notable 1 instance of this occurred last June. : The cable had broken and the Jera- mec had tShcd both ends from tho bot om off HattcraE, the Atlantic Cape of Storms" Chief Spiccr Yves Michel was working rapidly on the final splice, and the crew were congratulatng each other on having completed their task in 40 days.
 The congratulations came too soon, however. Out of clear sky came q hurricane. Tho ship was thrown violently upon her beam ends. The cable had to be aban- doned, and the Jeramec raced before the gals, l. lasted twenty minutes, but was Of such force that the top mastS were torn out of tho ship, and her wireless aerial sent spinning to lcewari where it trailed crazily oversize and tangled in the twin propcllcrs. Repairs were made. and the Jcramec returned to Hattcras to begin anew

 Tho serpentine street, lined with close built houses, is so narrow that residents can shake hands from their front porches with passing motorists. The motorists chief difficulty is in passing each other, and sometimes the unexpected ap- proach of q car from an opposite direction means backing for a quar- ter of a mile
 "The natives principal traffic problem Is not concerned with the highway. but with elevators. To go home from the mines the miners have to use huge elevators to nego- tiate the hillsidcs, If the town had q public utilities commission it would bo receiving complaints of crowded elevators rather than over full street cars.
 "The town also might be called the 'noisiest town in the world Its daytime hours are punctured by frc- quent fusillades of blasting from the nearby copper mines, and normally 1t sees a score or more premeditated avalanches.
 'The copper mines are located on an ore-streaked mountain which is gradually being moved. It is spir- aled about with some ten or twelve tiers of railroad--clinging 10 its sides like the spiral bracelets worn by South Sea belle.
 This mining railroad. with its little dump cars, requires its tracks 10 be moved every few days, as the blasting digs ever deeper Into the mountain sides and the tiny cars all day long busilv carry away bits of the giant knoll.
