ME United States Department of Commerce
l. Bulletin of February 7, 1890. shows that
the entire industry produced 17O51 ,459 more
pairs of shoes for the calendar year 1929 than
for the year 1923.
During this same twelve months the Inter
national Shoe Company alone made a gain of
7,281,134 pairs, while all other manufacturers,
approximately 1000 in number, were together
producing gain of 9,77O,325 pairs.
This means that the increased production
of the International Shoe Company not only
accounts for more than ~ per cent of the total
gain for the whole industry, but amounts to
more than "a per cent of the gain made by all
other manufacturers combined.
The Department of Commerce figures show
total production for the industry for the year
of 6l.4O2,l83 pairs. During the same period

the international Shoe Company produced
55.5O7,12o pairs. or more than Is per cent
of the total
Thus, while all other manufacturers were pro-
ducing 305, 895,O54 pairs for gain of slightly
more than 3 per cent over their production
of the previous year, the International Shoe
Company, with it's production of 55,5O7.12o
pairs, was making a gain on its own record
of more than Is per cent.
The International Shoe Company is proud
of this record. 1t is as fine an expression of
confidence as an exacting public has ever
given to any manufacturer 1t evidence of the
high esteem of the more than 10000 merchants
who sold the Shoes 1t is remarkable tribute to
the sound business principles from which this
company has never departed through all the
years of it's existence.

cruited within the State, George Tucker,
farm labor director, has estimated.
Reaping of Texas estimated yield OF
"a, 000,0 bushels began with ample
help at hand, the employment service
reported, as did harvest of Oklahoma s
and Missouri's crops, estimated recently
at 81, 923, 900 and l9,500,000 bushels.
The army of harvesters working
northward from Texas through Okla
homa is expected by the employment
service to supply the needs of Kansas,
then turn its attention to Nebraska.
Colorado, North and South Dakota and
other parts Of the wheat belt.
Mr.. Tucker said changing methods Of
harvest brought about by use OF the
harvester combine, which reapS and
threshes the grain as it trundles> across
the fields, have decreased by half the
number of men needed for wheat har-
vest. Previous to the advent of the
combine, Mr.. Tucker said, Kansas alone
required from 10000 to sc, 1000 harvesters
brought from outside the State.
Illustrating the change in harvesting
methods through use Of figures, Mr..
Tucker said 10000 workers would be
required to harvest the 4,503,000 acres
of Kansas wheat expected to be reaped
by binders, while $4,000 will be sufficient
to man the combines which will harvest
the States remaining 1882, 900 wheat
acres.

Bull GARIAN COLLEGE MEN
ARE ONLY UNEMPLOYED
Professions Crowded With Univer-
sity Graduates From overem-
phasis on Academic Study.

SOFIA P).-Bulgaria is suffering
from an overproduction Of college
graduates, the university trained men
being the only class Of the population
which shows an appreciate percentage
OF unemployment.
The condition has arisen largely from
the urge among farming families to
have at least one Of the sons or daugh-
tiers attend university. Sacrifices are
willingly made to accomplish this ideal,
the main object being to get an educa-
ton that will enable the young man or
woman to pass civil service examina-
ton and land q government position.
Today hundreds OF the products of
this feeling are unable to ind places.
The professions are overcrewded and,
TO make matters worse, the government
has developed an economical streak and
Is talking Of abolishfng many Of the
public office Sinecares -.-...
Yet the number of university stu
dents increases steadily. Registration
this year totals 3,605. Most of them
study law, even women registering for
that course, although they are not per-
nttted to practice in Bulgaria.
Many Of the students live from hand
TO mouth, hundreds existing on an
allowance of SO or $40 a month for
board and lodging. Their rooms are
dingy and their food is the last word in
frugality.

put to bed, came to his senses.
But Dick Berkeley turned his
face to the wall and pretended to
be too exhausted, mentally and
