duced was more than cut in half
in this period dropping from $685.
000, 100000 to $1,000, 100000.
But the picture would have been
blacker yet had industry insisted
either on making both ends meet
or folding up during the bad years.
From 1880 to 1884, inclusive,
manufacturers spent almost &c.
00O, 100000 more than they
earned, out of surpluses.
Big question is, what can be ex-
pected of manufacturing indus
try in the future? Can it alb
serb the 100000 unemployed?
Can it bring back our long-lost
recovery, make relief unneces-
sary and Danish the bread-line,
Answer, according to the sur
vey, is yes-if the American STAN
dard of living is raised well above
even the high 1929 level. On the
1929 standard, manufacturing in
dustries could employ 10,500,000
workers-and that is only 1,500,-
600 more than they are employing
at present. However, a so per
cent jump in our living standard,
over the 1929 level, would give
employment to almost 10000
900 men in our factories.
The survey mas little use for
such cures as the 3O-hour week.
1t says that this would simply
mean employing more men at low
er wages per man, is basically un-
sound.
Where !. is the future industrial
progress that would raise our
standard of living to unpreceden-
ted heights, to come from, The
survey answers: "From new pro-
ducts of research and invention"
And it further points out that if
the estimated housing deficit is
made up, $4,000, 100000 must
be spent for manufactured pro-
ducts; that there is a market for
$4,000, 100000 worth of cleo
trical equipment in wired homes;
that form identification provides
a prospective market for $5,000,-
100000 worth of electrical
equipment; that modernization of
the machine tools now used in in
dustry are obsolete. should be re-
placed at an expenditure of ST.
000, 100000, etc. Finally, il
points out that the automobile Of
fers one of the greatest fields of
all-that its annual market has a
value of $4,000, 000, 600.
Will all this come true? That
is for tomorrow to answer.

american industry was created
by the American people. In re-
turn, industry has created for the
American people the highest
standard of living in history" So
says Factory Management and
Maintenance" one of the Nc
Graw-Hill publications, in a brief
history of manufacturing indus
tries in the United States.
Biggest internal change of the
last hundred-odd years has been
Americas transition from a pri-
marily-agrieultural to a primarily
industrial nation. Between 1920
and 1880, the country's population
multiplied 13-fold. Power-first
steam, then electric-vas the
prime cause of this bloodless revo-
luton. Where the average fac
tory worker had 1.25 horsepower
at his command in 1879, he had
1886 at his beck and call in 1929.
In the -half-century preceding
1929, the survey says, the machine
created over 1000, 900 jobs in 16
manufacturing industries alone.
Biggest employer of the manufac-
turing industries in 1929 was cleo
trical apparatus and supplies,
with 328,700 workers. Runner-up
was motor vehicles with 224,600.
Third by a nose was motor vehicle
bodies and parts, with 222,700.
No other industry even came close
to these giants, 4th place being
held by tires and tubes with 3d.
200 employees, and fifth by gaso-
line manufacture, with 39,400.
Industries employing around 15,-
600 men each included tyepwrit-
ers, refrigerators, cash registers
and computing machines, cotton
seed oil cake and meal, aircraft,
monographs.
Between 1899 and 1929, manu-
featuring industry created "a per
cent of the total national income.
And between 1928 and 1884, it's
tax contribution to government
almost doubied-rising from 2
cents to 1873 cents per dollar of
wages paid.
The pre-1929 figures don't in
clude depression-and, as every
one knows, the record darkened
plenty following the crash. Where
manufacturing employed $780,
900 men in 1929, it employed g.
100000 in 1888. Where its total
wage envelope held $11, 900, 00O,-
90 in 1929, it shrunk to $780,
900 in 1888. Value of goods pro-

Many Things That We're
Planned By Leaders At
Outset Have Failed To
MateriaIize
By PRESTON GROVER

Thy Associated PFessD
WASHINGTON, Sept. 2.-To
date the campaign has failed to
develop new phrase-makers also TO
Combine two or three or four
words in an amalgamous epithet
that stands out starkly between
newspaper quotation marks.
Perhaps the Democrats suffer
less, for they have Secretary
lckes, among others, tried and
proved as an expert among ex.
Perts in molding syllable bullets
for use on the opposition.
Colonel Frank Knox, with a
background OF Spanish war soldier
and newspaper career, was touted
by the Republican high command
as the man who would put words
together in combinations to make
Democrats writhe uncomfortably
in their Washington offices.
Knox Phrases Mild
Now Colonel Knox has used
words and phrases and facts in
indictment OF the New Deal ad.
ministratiOn in a manner pleasing
to some Republicans who applaud
his downright manner. But to
Washington ears attuned in re-
cent years to "dead-cats" and
prophets of despair" the colo
nePs phrasings scarcely pass the
middle register on the keyboard.
He. talks with deadly serious
ness. He rakes the Democratic
stronghold WITH his most solid
shot.
Those who remember the ex-
changes between General Hugh
Johnson and numerous adver-
saries, including Father Coughlin
and the late Huey Long, yearn
for the rise of Republican
speaker with a saw-edged ton
que.
Father Coughlin, his phrases
perhaps no less sharp, has in the
estimate of some taken himself
off the big circuit by espousal of
a third party candidate.
Third Party Ignored
Inquiry at such part of Demo-
cratic headquarters as is left
here, develops that there is a
definite policy of ignoring as far
as possible the whole of third
party elements.
President Roosevelt may have
set the standard by his mo COM
ment" attitude on the "liar"
speech by Father Coughlin.
Dead also is that sexcited talk
of shutting out the Union party
candidates in some states by set
ting up dummy Union party or
CARNATIONS to preempt the name.
Evidently the idea has been
dropped for two reasons. First,
it smacked OF fright, which is not
considered good. Second, argu-
ments are advanced that Father
COughlin and Mr.. Lemke, Union
party candidate. may draw as
many Republican votes as Demo-
cratic votes from the great pool
of the electorate where all are
fishing.

PLAN ATTACK
ON Mine FIRE
81 YEARSOLD
HAS CONSUMED THOUSANDS
OF TONS OF COAL; THREAT
EMS OTHER DEPOSITS OF
CONSIDERABLE VALUE

(By Associated PresSl
NEW LEXINGTON, O., Sept. 2.
-Government-finaneed fire fight
ers are about to tackle a blaze
that has defied efforts to ex-
tinguish il for 81 years while
causing millions of dollars dam
age.
Ten to 200 feet underground in
10-square-mile area RACES an
inferno between Shawnee and
New StraitsviIIe, 10 miles south
of here.
1t has consumed thousands of
tons of coal, threatens other of
Perry county's rich coal and oil
deposits, has made a large area
uninhabitable and turned once
fertile soil into barren ground.
Started In 1884
The blaze started in a 14-foot
seam of bituminous coal in the
summer of 1884. The works prog
ress administration has approp-
rated S232,000 to halt it and Dr.
Carr watson, state administrator.
says work Will start as soon as pro-
per equipment Is OBTAINED.
The project Calls Tor q huge
steam shovel trench around muen
or the area. Then the coal seams
viii. be cut and nOn-cOmbustIDle
material thrown in the path OF the
lire.
William Berry, New Straitsvills
business leader, says if the fire Is
halted it viii restore the area a
an important coal producing point.
The fire has caused cave-ins
and created natural chimneys.
Water seeping into flame-filled
shafts generates steam and huge
holes are blown into the hilly
ground.
Is Often Spectacular
Shooting up through the Chin
neys, 1.-The flames often tower
many feet into the air. They
cause grass fires and hundreds of
persons are called out to halt the
spread of fire above the ground.
Conflicting legends are told con-
corning the fires cause. Some
say an explosion of ''bug dust, "
or common slack, set it off.
ID. j. Lewis of New Lexington,
who has studied the fires history,
relates a version that the fire re-
suited from the great Hooking
Valley mine strike OF 1884 and
was set by miners who believed
one of the companies planned to
import workers.
None, however, has been able
to estimate exactly the damage
the fire has caused.
