Los ANGELES, Oct. 14.-Action
favoring the shorter work day was
recorded i'll the closing hours of the
forty-seventh annual convention of
the American Federation of Labor
here today.
The report of the shorter work
day committee, presented by John
Harding, of the International Typo
graphical Union, who called atten-
tion to the fact that the American
work day has been cut from Is
hours in 1776 to eight hours at the
present time, was unanimously
adopted.
The convention also went ON re-
cord in favor of the extension of
the work of the American public
school and for academic free
DOM as the hour of adjournment
drew nearer, bringing to a close
one of the most conservative con-
claves in the history of labor.
The shorter work day committee g
report recommended an eight hour
work day for fire fighters as adj
vocated by the International AS
sociation of Fire Fighters, and
! work day not exceeding eight hours
day for six days Il week through
out the entire oil industry of the
United States.
No Production Decrease
The executive council of the fed.
Grafton was urged in Harding's re-
port to continue placing statistics
before the unions showing the me-
cessity of the shorter work day and
the shorter work week.
cit has been said,' Harding
said, "that the shorter work day
/ reduces the volume of production.
This is not true. The reduction of
the daily hours of labor has been
! accompanied by most material in
crease in the volume of produce
tion. -
The report of a special committee
on education was made by Mrs.
Florence c. Hanson of the Ameri-
can Federation of Teachers. It's
recommendation were adopted by
the convention without debate
placing the federation on record as
in favor of:
Compulsory education.
Encouragement of fair study of
social, economic and political his
tory of the United States.
! Extension of free text books.
Continuation, or part time schools
which the report said, were being
attacked by "unwise employers, +"
as opposed to night schools. The
continuation schools, the report
urged, should work with the child
for from four to eight hours day
! and should aim to meet his cultural
as sell as his occupational needs.
More Teachers Needed
specifications for handicapped or
! crippled children.
| State aid for the poor rural dis
trict schools and nursery schools.
An increasing number of teach.
crs, - Mrs. Hanson said, "is becom-
ing social-mindcd and is developing
II social awareness. The teacher is
coming to feel that it is a privilege
and duty to participate in the
American labor movements. -
In closing it's report the education
committee took bold stand for
academic freedom.' The resolu-
tion adopted by the convention de-
clared that the federation opposes
in principle the enactment of any
legislation or regulation which
would seek to prevent the teaching
of true facts and the examination
of theories in the natural and social
sciences in our public schools and
colloes. "
Immediate federal aid in building
up the schools of the flood stricken
Mississippi Valley was urged by tho
committee.

At The Movies
CAPITOL THEATRE

1t Is being freely predicted that
printed sub-titles will all but he
eliminated from moving pictures be-
fore the present theatrical season
ends, due TO an innovation which Di-
rector Raoul Walsh has injected in
to the film version Of what Price
Glorv." which comes to Capitol Thea
tire for o four days engagement soon.
Captain Flagg and Sergeant Quirt,
dressing each other down" with
strong language on the screen where
the film is being shown, not only
fail to shock their audiences. but set
a new style for conveying their re-
marks to their "hearers."
BY q very clever use Of the camera
TO catch the movement OF the lips.
the strong language which was such
an important feature Of the stage
play has been kept in its entirely
without resort to the printed word.
The result. according to those who
haEe been studying the innovation.
gives the audience new enjoyment
the satisfaction of being able to
make out what the actors are saying
at the time they say il. In the case
| Of "What Price Glory" they get add
ed enjoyment out Of placing naughty
words" in the actors mouths. Those
who are ignorant Of the expressive
words in English can find nothing
shocking in the pantomime.
The printed subtitle. which has
always been q problem for motion
picture producers, is now apparently
doomed. The German producers have
got around the problem Of "Came the
Dawn" "That Night" and other trite
phrases by cutting out the sub-titles
entirely and relying on elaborate &C
ton to get ideas over to the audience.
