LABOR DEMANDS
SHORT WEEK IN
AUTO INDUSTRY
Test to Come in Request for
Code Revision Due
Nov. 3.

BIZ United Preaa
WASHINGTON. Oct. 26.-The
automobile industry-trail- blazer In
American business-today became
the spearhead Of an American Fed
Grafton Of Labor drive through NRA
to secure shorter hours and in
creased wages for all industrial
workers.
The recovery board has before it
the labor advisory boards approval
Of a federation request to reopen
the auto code for amendment. The
code expires Nov. 3. Labor wants
to pare the work week to thirty
hours. boost minimum wages and
those above the minimum. Par
ticulaTly white collar" workers, and
eliminate the controversial merit
clause. Labor was promised a pub
lie hearing by former administrator,
Hugh S. Johnson, before the code
would be renewed again.
NIRB Chairman Clay Williams
received the request from labor
board members following yester-
days meeting, attended by Labor
Secretary Frances Perkins and
Assistant Edward F. McGrady.
Williams Is Silent
Mr.. Williams afterWard refused
to discuss the matter, but William
Green, federation president and act
ing labor board chairman, said
NIRB was not in a position to say
now what can be done.
Apparently no request has been
made By the industry for hearing
or extension of the code" Mr.. Green
said.
Confidential sources in the in
dustry confirmed this statement. 1t
is believed. however, that automo-
bile manufacturers are willing to
renew the code only if there are no
changes. Their attitude is I'M
changed since the code was last
renewed sixty days ago.
They fought, and won then
against elimination of the merit"
clause which labor claims is recogni-
ton of company unions. It permits
hiring and firing on merit, regard
less of union affiliation.

7O4 Moscow Elevators
Post Not Working Sign

MOSCOW, U. s. s. R., October
27.-The metropolis of Moscow, with
a population of more than 5000, 900
has, in its entire area, q total OF
1,178 elevators and on 704 of these
there hangs a little sign, familiar to
every Muscovite, the elevator Is not
working"
Nothing much has been done about
the elevator problem since the Rus
sian revolution and many of the ele-
vators which were working in 1917
are not running now. Last June the
Moscow City Council decided that
every flve-story building In Moscow
was to have an elevator and ordered
an entire factory to start producing
the necessary machines, but this order
never went into effect and almost all
of Moscow is still walking upstairs.
Meanwhile, houses occupied by COM
peratively affluent comrades have
taken to buying elevators from poorer
houses, inhabited by common people.
The house in which this corre-
spondent dwells there Is an ancient
elevator which has not worked for
some ten years. At the time we
signed our lease last October we were
informed that the elevator would be
in operation by January, 1884, and
this promise was backed up by huge
gang of workmen who hammered
away at the affair for the better part
Of two months. Several months have
passed since the work was finished,
but the government commission which
must test 1t has not yet given its ap-
proval. We are not sure that we
should like to ride in the affair
anyway.

from their countrymen and the plain
clothes operatives, hesitate for q mo-
ment. then, hand grasping, hand, leap
in.
That should be the end. But in this
case it was not.
Early Saturday morning, with faces
and hands badly torn and burned. they
drag themselves up to this same shack
and are met by the same photogra-
pher. In simple terms they explain.
They had leaped into the crater, felt
themselves falling and then had hit
ledge. Here they had lost conscious
ness. HiSako slowly recovered and
aroused Mihara. They looked above
and saw the blue sky and, peering be-
low, saw the white heat flames OF
molten lava hundreds of feet beneath
them.
Neither had the courage to leap
again. Instead, they began crawling
their perilous way to the rim above.
How long they took to reach 1t neither
of them could either guess or know,
but eventually they made it and here
they rested In q state of exhaustion.
The photographer notified the po-
lice, who brought them back to Toxic.
Questioned. both vehemently swore
neither of them would ever attempt to
end her life again.
This is the first instance in which
Mihara-yama has ever surrendered its
victims, who average almost one o day
throughout the year.

Philippines-to-Java
Air Line Due by '35

MANILA, p. I. R.-A prediction
that commercial sirplane service will
be established by the end Of 1885 be-
tween the Philippines and Java, con-
Meeting the latter country with the
existing line to Europe, was made here
on a survey trip by Capt. E. A. j.
Prillwitz, chief pilot Of the Royal
Dutch Indian Airlines.
He said the Dutch concern believed
weekly trips, requiring about two
days, between Manila and Sourabaya
by way of Eastern Borneo and the
Celebes Islands, would be profitable
A charter for such line was asked
in 1898 by the Pan-American Airways
but the application was rejected by the
Legislature because of proposal to
touch Philippine cities other thar
Manila. An existing local concern op-
Grating between Manila and the south
objected.
Another aviation possibility devel-
oped with visit by j. Taylor, repre-
sentative of the New Guinea Airways
who said his concern was studying the
advisability of extending routes to
the Oriental mainland.
Back from q visit to French Indo-
China, Maj. Gen. Frank Parker, COM
manding general of the Philippines
said the extension Of air routes Is
important and deserves the support OF
the tnsular government.

Irish Army Chiefs
Stunning Pensions

DUBLIN CP.-The leaders Of the
Irish Republican Army have turned
up a collective nose at the govern
ment's plan to provide army pensions.
The Irish Republican Army was the
nucleus of the anti-government forces
in the civil war which followed the
establishment of the Irish Free State.
The army's council has issued an
order urging its members to refuse
the pensions as "bribe"
You who served Ireland faith
fully in the past" the order says; do
not allow yourselves to be weakened
in your allegiance by a bribe. Do
not allow it to be said that, having
been rewarded for your services, your
part in the national fight should end.
"The struggle for national inde-
pendence and unity and for social
justice for all citizens must 90 on.
The triumph Of those ideals is the
reward to which those who serve
Ireland look forward"

Two Japanese Girls Braving Death
In Suicide Volcano, Return Alive

TOXIC. Japan.-Two young Japa-
nese nurses walked through the val
ley Of the Shadow of Death" and re-
turned to Toxic to tell the story. To
express 1t in melodramatic terms, they
went to Hades and have just got back
alive swearing never to 60 there again.
To be still more specific but with the
possibility of not being entirely be-
lieved, it may be written SO:
Miss Hisako Nakazawa, 81, and
Miss Matsue Mihara, %. holding hands,
leaped down the crater Of the active
volcano Mihara at 8 o'clock Friday
afternoon, September %, and returned
to Toxic late Saturday with blood
stained and sulphur burned faces, both
Of them declaring they would never
again attempt to commit suicide"
Such is an actual recording Of the
event. Only q few details remain
to fill in the picture.
Fed up with life that held out little
possibilities Of romance, tired Of pass
ing their days attending the needs Of
patients with aching bodies and petu-
liant minds, Hisako and Matsue agreed
to end their lives together by going
to Japan's most fashionable suicide
resort, Mount Mihara. Oh small Oshi-
ma Island at the mouth of Toxic Bay,
the nearest of all active volcanoes
on this most volcanic Of Pacific arch
ipelagoes.
The two girls took the famous "sui-
eide ship" q small dirty little over
crowded vessel, leaving a small Toxic
pier at 10 o'clock Thursday night.
Hisako and Matsue, comforting one
another, huddled together on one Of
the many benches on the open deck,
the elder girl, Mihara, holding her 81
year-old companion tenderly, yet not
too conspicuously, for q number of
secret police are among the passengers
trying by their own subtle methods
to deduce the object Of their voyage.
Neither of the two girls aroused sus-
picion.
Arriving at the fishing village of
Motomura. the two girls climbed
Mount Mihara, stopping at small rustic
resting stations, refusing to buy bottled
sodas and camellia oil, the latter good
for dandruf1.
BY o'clock they reach the rim of
the ash-strewn outer crater.
One last effort and they reach the
summit. Here they pause and. calling
upon q photographer who plies his
calling just at this one particular spot,
the two girls pose for a final photo,
paying for it and giving the man spe-
cial instructions where 1t Is to be
mailed.

together.

Ties Are Distinguishing

GLASGOW R.-England's "old
school tie" habit has trickled across
the Scottish border and infected
Glasgow's policemen and street car
workers.

neckwear which distinguishes them
from the common herd"
1t required six months for the police
force to agree upon q nifty affair in
deep blue decorated with white dice
like figures. A plebiscite of the men,
bers and the ofiicial stamp of ap-
proval of the secretary for Scotland
were necessary before the design was
decided upon. The policemen wear
their ties only when in plain clothes.
The street car motormen and con-

chiefly through his war books and So
cial studies, such as "The New Book
of Martyrs" and Civilization" Papa

be translated into English. American
readers should become acquainted
with him, If they have not already
done so, for he has received the Prix

for prizes are poor measuring rule for

In any event, our Government is
Santa Claus over a much wider area
than was originally intended. We
present today the slightly ludicrous
spectacle of a nation straining its re-
duced resources to raise cotton prices
and increase cotton markets for every
cotton growing country in the world
The press reports that our Undersec-
retary of Agriculture is in Europe to
find out what other countries are do
ing and thinking about agriculture.
He will find out that they are not do
ing what this country is doing. If he
finds out what they are thinking, he
will be shocked. The European coun-
tries that own cotton growing colonies
will probably bestow on him their
highest decorations.
And finally, there is our monetary
policy. This is a bigger thing than
the interest Of the South or any other
section. But today we are concerned
only with the South. The country
has embarked on confused policy Of
debasement, devaluation and imitation
through three forms of manipulation
dilution of bank reserves, debasement
of the gold coinage and adulteration
with silver. The objectives Of all this
are to force recovery by an artificial
rise of prices, to relieve debtors by
means of cheaper money and to stim-
ulste export trade through a lowered
exchange value of the dollar BY this
time almost everybody but Prof
Warren and Senator Thomas realizes
that this sort of thing brings not re-
covery. but stagnation of investment;
that it does not relieve the poor debt
ors who have long since lost their all
in depression, but greatly benefits the
rich stockholders and the spectators
and creditors who have been steadily
absorbing property during the last
five years, as well as all those foreign
debtors who have refused to pay us
what they owe.
The South's special interest Is In
the export side. Devaluation gives a
temporary boost to export products.

wages and what comes from higher
wages-human betterment in comfort,
education, literacy, ambition and op-
portunity. The best prospect for
higher wages in the South seems to me
to lie in free and unrestricted de-
velopment of industry, very much
without an N. r. A. Nor Is this any
thinly disguised approval of all the
labor conditions in the South. The
mill owners of our region may as well
reconcile themselves to collective bar
gaining here and now. Labor in the
South is of Anglo-SaXon stock ana 1t
is going to organize, with or without
aid from Section Ia. The South in
sured just this outcome when 1t united.
very properly, on restricting immlgra-
tion.
When we come to our agriculture
problem we encounter tragedy. Cotton
has been the bulwark and the burden
of the South since Eli Whitney. 1t
was cotton and New England tarlH
that caused the Civil War, much more
than slavery. Agriculture always sui
fers greatly in depression, and one
CIOp dSllCulIuIc lltOSL VI dus
Slowly but surely we are ceasing to
be a one-crop area. The center OF
production of cotton has long since
moved toward and even across the
Mississippi. The good old Southern
State of Oklahoma, created in 1907,
now produces almost as much cotton
as the two Carolinas combined. But
cotton is still the foundation Of our
economic life. And the market for
cotton is governed by inexorable eco
nomic laws. In time of feverish pros
perity the world will take 100000
bales of our cotton at 20 or 25 cent
price. At the pit of world depression
it will take 100000 or $4,000 900
bales at a price of cents. And the
South is prostrated by scent cotton.
At first glance a proposal to obtain
a reduction in cotton production by
Government action appears attractive.
The farmer, with no other means Of
living, in debt to his bank, goes on
producing, even though his prospective
market will not pay his costs of pro-
duction. If, by some sleight-of- hand,
Government can restrict production
