SHARE THE WORK
MOVEMENT UNDER
WAY in FLORIDA
NATIONWIDE CAMPAIGN IN
AUGURATED FOR PURPOSE
OF REDUCING UNEMPLoY-
MENT IN ALL LOCALITIES

w. R. McQuaid, president of the
Barnett National Bank of jack
ssonville and a member of the Bank
ing and Industrial Committee of
the Sixth Federal Reserve District
has been made chairman for the
state of Florida of the national
Share-the- Work Movement. Mon
day, October 3, marked the be-
ginning of this nation wide CAM
paign to reduce unemployment.
As chairman of the state of
Florida, Mr.. McQuaid will have
charge of participation in the drive
for sharing existing work among
as many workers as possible in or
der to lessen unemployment, which
resulted from President Hoover's
recent conference of the nations
business leaders at which the job
sharing plan was proposed ma
tionally. Industrial leaders and
their employees in almost every
field are to be asked to join in the
campaign.
Operating under the Federal Re-
serve Banking and Industrial Com
mittees, the Share-the-Work Move
ment has a three fold aim. 1t will
first endeavor to check the upward
trend of unemployment, when work
is reduced for seasonal or other
reasons, by employing the greatest
possible number of workers OH a
shortened working schedule, thus
avoiding adding to unemployment.
Tt will also attempt to decrease
unemployment by wider spread
ing of work now available among
a larger group of employees work
ing shorter periods, rather than by
employing smaller group working
longer periods.
Whenever an increasing volume
of business permits employing adj
ditional workers, it will try to do
so by distributing the increased
work to the greatest possible num-

George Arliss, showing tonight
lat the Strand Theater, in his new
est Warner Bros. picture, "A Sue
cessful Calamity" is the proud
owner of new stick, q very old
new stick, shortened by q century
and halls wear on the unferruled
end, but still capable of helping
celebrities over the rough places in
their careers.
Several months ago an actor
showed Mr.. Arliss the cane, while
THE star was resting between
scenes on Warner Bros. sound
| stage.
1t is a plain stick, with a blue
and white china head and gold
eyelet piercing its middle where q
carrying thong was once strung.
Just below the head is a wide gold
band engraved as follows:
Joseph jefferson
from
Henry Irving
z May 1896
This cane belonged to Thomas
King, the original Sir Peter
Teazle, and was used by him
in that character.
Drury Lane Theater
5 May, l777
Mr.. Arliss was much interested.
81 don't suppose you care to dis
pose of it," he asked.
The owner smiled and shook his
head. ..Not for any amount of
money" he confessed.
Recently, however, Mr. Arliss re-
'ceived a letter from the actor. He
told of unexpected reSerses and re-
membered Mr.. Arliss' interest in
the cane. He asked if Mr.. Arliss
still wished to purchase the stick
and offered it for price. Arliss
accepted the offer and now has the
curious old stick among his choice
possessions.
The event commemorated by the
cane is one of the most memorable
in English theatrical history. The
Sheridan comedy, 'sThe School for
Scandal" opened in the Drury.
Lane Theater in London for the
first time on May s, 1777. Mrs.
Abingdon played Lady Teazle.
Mr.. Arliss himself walks with
the Sir Peter Teazle stick only
upon very special occasions.
Mary Astor plays opposite Mr..
Arliss in "A Successful Calamity"
and John Adolf directed.

BIGGER DEMAND FOR
LOW-GRADE TOBACCO
Rx AssocIafeiI pressl

WASHINGTON. Oct. Low
cred buying power in various for
eign countries has been reflected
in an increased demand for Ameri-
can tobacco stems, trimmings and
scraps.
Figures of the commerce de-
partment's tobacco division show
that, in the prosperity year" of
1929, total exports of low grade
tobacco products amounted to 10
million pounds while, in 1881. they
reached approximately 81 million
pounds.
|. For the first half of 1892, the
total was IL million pounds.
Germany, one of the large buy
fers, uses the products almost ex-
clusively in the manufacture of
pipe tobacco while China, another
main market, makes the stems,
trimmings, and scraps into cigarets
for the coolie trade.

Der, rather than by working longer
schedules.
The general plan of organization
of the Share-the- Work Movement
provides for national committee
of twelve men, one from each of
the twelve Federal Reserve dis
Itricts, under the direction of Wal
ter c. Teagle, who is on leave of
absence from his position as presi-
dent of the Standard Oil Company
of New Jersey, for this purpose.
Each Federal Reserve district is
divided into smaller districts, the
Sixth District including Florida,
Georgia, Alabama, and parts of
Tennessee, Mississippi and Louis
lana, with committee of business
leaders supervising the work in
each district.
Local committees are TO be
formed in the larger cities and in-
dustrial centers, including some
fifteen such local organizations in
Florida, according to present plans,
with Mr.. McQuaid in charge of CO.
ordinating their work.
The local committee will work
through each industry, with lead
er for the industry who will head
the movement in his group. For
example, all the lumber dealers in
a particular city will be assembled
under the direction of one of their
number, and will cooperate in APP
plying the Share-the-Work Move
ment to their line of business. The
day cleaners will form another
group, and so on. Any business
employing ten or more workers
will be considered in the plan.
The Share-the- Work Movement
is not a new plan, but is one that
has been successfully operated by
more than 5000 industrial cons
Germs.
Representing as it does the
greater proportion of the business
organizations in the United States,
it becomes a major attack on iin-
employment, which is expected to
assist the present upward trend eff
business in regaining higher level
by restoring buying power to many
now out of work.

DC. HEADS VETO
5-DAY WEEK

Approval of the cumulative
leave plan of the enforced fur
Tough for municipal Government
employees was voted by the
District Commissioners today.
Turning thumbs down on the
"five-day week" plan, the Com
missioners ordered a memo
randum to this effect sent to
department heads and directing
that in cases where workers can
be spared they be allowed to take
leave on the cumulative basis.
Under the plan adopted by the
Commissioners, it was explained,
that on each semi-monthly pay
day a deduction is made of 8.3
per cent, the equivalent of IA
calender days pay, and the
employe thus earns the right to
one working days leave.
The cumulative leave plan
applies only to annual employees
of the District, as per diem
workers were placed on five-day
week program by Congress.
