logically it usually means the head
of family thrown on the street
while the daughters he might other
wise be sending to high school take
his place in the electric works. +
The average wage of the $4,000
Hawthorne employees, including all
high salaried ones, is under $25 a
week. The engineers who plan day
by day to drive the other employees
off the payroll get more than any
body else except the big executives.
The Western Electric engineers not
only displace fellow workers in their
own industry. Their inventions and
improvements push workers out Of
other fields also. The recent contro-
versy between the union musicians
Of Chicago and the movie houses
had as one of its causes the growing
up of moviephones. In the smaller
theaters throughout the country
either the vitaphone or the movie
tone is supplanting human orches-
tras. Both of these mechanical mu-
sic makers are Western Electric
products.
Over 5000 are already in use
though their mechanical develop
ment is still in its infancy. They
are not sold but licensed so they can
be called in as the progress of i'm
provements warrants. The movie
tone is understanding the vitaphone
because of its technical superiority.
The vitaphone requires extra re-
hearsing to get the music, which is
put on disc record, synchronized
with the production of the picture.
The movietone records pictures and
music on the same film. The sounds
are reproduced through photo-elec-
trio cells and amplifiers.
So drastic has been the general
reduction of labor forces at Haw-
thorne that the Western Electric has
reversed its old policy and is manu-
featuring the music machines instead
Of simply working out the patents.
The saving in floor space makes this
I feasible.

CHICAGO (FP)).-A single new
machine that winds loading coils for
telephone cables does all the work
and more of five machines recently
scrapped at the Hawthorne works
of the Western Electric Co. The
junked machines were the latest in
their line a couple of years ago.
Western Electric engineers are al
ready perfecting machine to dis
place the one just installed. This
business of hiring high-price tech
nicians to put expensive equipment
out of date is paying proposition
for Western Electric.
The new winding machine is run
by girl at $25 a week. The five
old machines were run by men at
S35. Weekly labor cost of new equip
ment $25; weekly labor cost of old
equipment $175; weekly saving in
labor cost $50; annual saving $1,000.
The actual saving, due to a number
of factors, was $4,000.
That is a single instance. Paral-
lei cases are occurring all the time,
not only in the Hawthorne plant
but all over the country. The 700
to 800 engineers at Hawthorne are
paid to make such cases occur. They
spend part of their time maintain
ing and installing equipment but a
large portion goes to the all-im-
portant problem of reducing labor
costs.
About $2,5O0,OO0 is saved annually
in labor costs, it is figured by en-
gineers familiar with the work. Over
100000 was saved by installing the
conveyor or straightline assembly
system in one department. Both the
present style handset telephone in
strument and the new desk set are
now on the endless chain. That
means more men out of job ant

Soviet Union Makes
Own Machines

In the past few months the Am
torg Trading Corporation and Sells
kosojus-America Representatives of
Soviet agricultural producers CO.
operatives) have purchased $500
tractors for the Soviet Union. Amer
lean agricultural equipment will
play an especially important role in
the development, within the next five
years, of over one hundred Soviet
state grain farms with an aggre-
gate area of $4,000, 000-one of the
greatest agricultural projects of
modern times.
Ilyichev, head of the delegation
representing the Soviet grain trust
(Zernotrest), which is supervising
the organization of these farms,
stated at the offices of the Amtorg
Trading CORPORATION yesterday that
at least 10000 tractors, with 10000
sets of attachments, as we'll as a
correspondinPly large quantity Of
other agricultural implements, will
be required by these Soviet farms
within the next few years. The or
ganization of state grain farms, for
which this year $50,O00,000 has been
allotted, one-third of the total appro-
priation for the next five years, was
decided on by the Soviet Government
in order to build up large-scale grain
production, using the experience of
American and Canadian enterprises
in this field.
Of the $500 tractors being ship
ned to Russia to be used in the next
Spring sowing campaign, the Soviet
Grain Trust accounts for 500, in
Guiding 1000 international tractors
and 500 powerful Cletrac and Oil
pull tractors. The other 1920 trac-
tors were purchased for various So
Wet distributing organizations In
the past four years about $4,000
American tractors have been shipped
by Amtorg to the Soviet Union. Al
together there are at present in the
Soviet Union over 10000 tractors, in
Guiding those of domestic manufac-
ture. produced principally at the
Putilov plant in Leningrad. With
only 10000 automobiles in the entire
country, Russia has the distinction
of being probably the only country
in the world to nave more tractors
than autos.

Search Olympic for
Diamond Smugglers

Four special agents of the U. S.
treasury boarded the incoming liner
Olympic at quarantine yesterday,
brushed past passengers on a dead
run, secured through cabins, and
left, disappointed, when the ship
pulled into its dock.
The agents, including two newly
arrived from Washington, were be-
lieved to have sought four men they
could not find.
Il was believed their visit may
have been in connection with dia-
mond smuggling plot in which four
persons have already been arrested.

TO STRIKE SOON
To Launch Fight on
Open-Shop Plants

A strike looms in the window
cleaning industry, according to Har-
ry Feinstein, secretary of the Win
dow Cleaners Protective Union, Lo-
cal s, Is East Third st. The strike
will be directed against the oper
shop plants in Greater New York.
For some time past, Feinstein
said yesterday, negotiations be-
tween bosses and representative OF
the union have been going on. The
union wants to unionize the 400 I'M
organized window cleaners in the
business. Last week the bosses an
swered by securing an injunction
against the union which restrains
the union from picketing scab
plants.
The proposed strike will not af-

now working under union contracts
The demands of the union are $45
a week for A hours, double time
for overtime, recognition of the
union, no discharge of a worker
after two weeks of employment
without just cause and the consent
of the union, and eight legal Holt
days with full pay.
