SPRING
The friendly word.
The distant hills,
The campfire by the sparkling rill
The dogwood scent on breezes low
Spring means the things I'm loving So
The mountain high
Fleecy clouds IN the sky
The trail ahead with you
The first faint glow of silver dawn.
Spring brings the things I'm loving so.

"MAN--H0UR" WORK
YARDST|CK URGED
Engineers Council Suggests
New Method to Gauge
Efficiency.

! A new measuring-stick to determine
the exact degree of employment and in
dustrial efficiency in the United States
through the compilation of man-hours
of work in the industrial censuses and
a further refinement of the census
figures to determine the exact number
of hours men in great industrial plants
are exposed to hazard by a computation
of the "hazard-hours" Of employment,
are sought by the American Engineer
ing Council, which closed its annual
two-day convention at the Mayflower
| yesterday.
In a resolution passed yesterday by
the council, it was authorized to take
action seeking to have the number of
man-hours working in the .manufactur-
ing establishments of the United States
reported in the next and succeeding
censuses of manufacturers.
The engineers hold that the true
measure of industry's capacity to util-
ize labor is not the number of men and
women at work nor the number of days
they work, but rather the number of
hours they work. 1t is pointed out that
the aggregate of employment should
be computed in man-hours.
SUCH a record, it is forseen, also
would reveal accurate data as to acct
dents. One of the principal benefits
to be derived from such a cofnputa-
ton would be the great aid to tariff,
making thorough the determination Of
the degree of protection which indus
tries need on the basis of r11an-hours
used. The data also would be of great
use to investors in gauging the sound
ness of industries, it is commended.
The prosperity reserve" plan to re-
lieve unemployment in time Of indus
trial depression, provided that no in
crease In taxation will result, was in
dorsed by the engineers.

Tests which have been in progress on

matted yesterday. 1t was announced
That two cylinder head gaskets had
blown out in the engines of the De-
fender, necessitating repairs that would
cause postponement of at least two
weeks.
Reports were heard at the dock near
Wnere the Defender lay moored to the
NAVY salvage vessel Mallard. which was
TO tow the submarine to New London.
tnaC navy officers had discovered an
euort 10 cut the combination communi-
cation capie connecting the salvage yes
sci and the submarine. The purnose Of
TINS, 1t was reported, was to cripple the
submarine when 1t submerged by max
ing contact with the Mallard impossible.
Inc early reports were that as a result
OF the discovery all shore leaves for the
crew OF the Mallard rad been cam
c0ed, and that court-martial had
Deen started. 1t was also said that
Lieut.. Comdr. Palmer II. Dunbar. in
charge OF the experimentation, had
neen ordered to Washington to repre-
sent the Navy Department.
Lieut.. Dunbar, who left Bridgeport
this morning, said he was under in
structions to report to the Navy Depart
ment, but he declared the reports of the
aliegeo tampering with the hawser had
peen greatly exaggerated. He said he
nad found a few strands of the cable
mad been severed when one of the SAIL
ors, who was shoveling snow off the
deck OF the Mallard. accidentally hit the
nawser with his shovel. He said the
hawser at the time was not attached
to the Defender, and that, though an
other hawser was available immediately.

TREATY ADOPTION
LAUDEDBY FRENCH
Speedy Ratification by Sig
natory Powers Is Looked
for in Paris.
Nv the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
PARIS, January 16.-Speedy ratiflca-
ton of the Kellogg pact by all the
signatories following the lead OF the
United States is now expected in French
official circles.
A bill to that effect will be introduced
In the Frerlch parliament at once and
is expected to be quickly enacted.
The almost unanimous vote Of the
Senate came as an agreeable surprise
in French officialdom, which had looked
for ratification, but expected greater
opposition. The action of the Senate is
regarded here as putting an end TO
Soviet negotiations with Poland Tor I'M
mediate application of the pact with
out waiting for ratification by the IA
original signers.
The entrance of the Kellogg pact into
a stronger position through its ratlflca-
ton in the United States is looked upon
as greatly strengthening the Locarno
policy and tending to facilitate the work
of the reparations experts as well as
negotiations for evacuation OF the
Rhineland.
Press Comment Is Varied.
Ratification by the United States Sem
ate of the Kellogg BRAND treaty re-
nouncing war was hailed with general
satisfaction by newspapers today, al
though comment varied in accordance
with political tendencies.
The widely circulated Petit PariSien
said the importance of the decision
could not be too much emphasized as
the policy of peace inaugurated at Lo-
carno and developed since then in diff
ferent regions of Europe found itself
thus sanctioned by the United States
On the other hand, PertinaX in
L'Ecllo de Paris was inclined to belittle
its Importance. He said: I'VE are in
capable of thinking that the Senate's
vote will mark an important date in the
history of the nations, but we recognize
that it has the modest merit of re-
lieving us of Sovietic schemes and
maneuvers built up at Moscow on the
hypothesis of indefinite adjournment
and even failure"
Excelsior considered that while the
pact would not make general disarma-
ment possible, it would render war
morally more difficult.
BRAND Halls Ratification.
Speaking in the French Senate, For
eign Minister BRAND, co-author with
Secretary Kellogg of the pact, said that
it was step toward universal peace, add
ing:
1T is simply magnificent demon
stration of the sincere desire of IS ma
tons to outlaw war;
While the Senate was discussing the
peace pact the Chamber of Deputies
passed an appropriation for the con-
struction of cruiser, 6 destroyers, 6
torpedo boats, first-class submarines
and submarine mine layer. This con-
setutes the French 1929 naval pro-
gram under the Washington accord.
