U. S. Tourists Rush to Tientsin.
Considerable numbers of tourists
from the United States, as well as
other foreigners, were rushing toward
Tientsin, headquarters Of the japanese
North China command.
Advices from Tientsin said the Jap
anese military authorities had taken
over operation of the Peiping- Mukden
Railway because of the refusal of
Chinese employees to haul japanese
troops to points in North China from
Shanhaikwan, on the border of Man
Chukuo.
The first of five troop trains bearing
reinforcements from the japanese
Kwantung army in Manchukuo
reached Tangku, 20 miles east of
Tientsin. -Four Of the trains were
loaded with troops, the fifth with
motor trucks.
Other troops-700 strong and armed
with machine guns-were reported
moved up toward the Peiping zone in
trucks because of the hitch in rail-
way operations.
AS result of the five days and
nights OF fighting, the japanese ap-
peared to be in control of the Marco
Polo Bridge district, with nothing to
prevent them from taking over the
section Of the strategic Hankow-Pei-
ping Railway, which crosses the
Yungting River.

industries, and minimum wages, with
fairly increased pay for overtime. Also.
products of child labor are barred to
interstate trade.
FIGURES LEFT BLANK
Figures are left blank in the pend
ing bills.
The prescribed number of legaliz-
ed hours per week, the rate of pay,
the increased rate for overtime and
the age limit for child workers remain
to be settled in the course of congress
sional debate.
But the principle is clear enough.
It likewise is suggested that sub
board will be needed for each impor-
tant industry or group of industries,
with the main board of five doing the
co-ordinating.
This begins to complicate matters,
since it involves a balancing of indus
try against ndustry-reasOnable pro-
fits and all that.
FEWER HOURS NOW
However, those are details.
To consider the general PROPOSE
ton:
AS I have heard ex-Statistician
.Ethelbert Stewart of the labor depart
ment express it, "Time was, when
production was so slow, being practi-
cally all by hand, that men had to
toll from sun to sun to turn out
enough to go around"
With the advent of wOrk-saving
machinery this pressure was relieved.
Yet only by degrees. Within my
own recollection a 60-hour week was
the standard. In some industries it
was r.; in some more. I have work
ed 80, as a newspaperman-and with
no overtime pay.
WHERE is THE LINE?
Well, with labor-saving methods,
these excessive hours began to be cut
down-to eight or less per day.
Labor's story was that, less inhu-
manly exploited, the workers eff
cheney was so greatly enhanced, that
he produced more than he had before
more in an eight-hour day than he
had in day of 10 or II hours.
I think this is likely.
I think he may produce more in a
3O-hour week than in a week of IS
or 40 hours.
But somewhere a point must be
reached where he will produce less.
A PUZZLE FOR NEW BOARD
Up to the proposed new board are
the issues:
Production; consumption; distribu-
ton; balance; fair division; the &C.
centricities of democracy; temporary
trade trends; God knows what all.
A. itco1
the thing may become comprehen-
sible.
1t is a puzzle at present.

ANSWERS

l. The legislature is prohibited by
the constitution from granting divorce
or securing alimOny but it does have
power to pass general laws controll-
ing divorce and alimony.
2. COxS Brigade, Grimes Division
under General w. r. Cox. of Scotland
Neck, made the last charge and fired
the last shot before being notified of
the surrender, April 9, 1865.
3. The Board of War on Sunday.
January 6, 1871, sent instructions to
Brigadier General Ellington, in event
the enemy began to land on the Cape
Fear to size all salt, rum, sugar and
other articles essentially necessary for
the army" and to drive all stock and
cattle into the interior country.
a. The following entry was made
in the vestry book of ST. Pauls parish
Edenton, October IA, 1902. ''The YES
try do declare their dislike of the cell
ing of the Chapel by reason of the
Boards being defaced." Two members
of the vestry were appointed to name
one man and the contractor, John
Porter, was instructed to name one
other man. These two were to inspect
the ceiling and agree on what should
be done. If they were unable to agree
they were to appoint a third man.
5. Early explorers and settlers
along the North Carolina coast re-
ferred to it as the Charles River. The
| Cape that guards it's entrance into the
/ Atlantic ocean was called the Cape
of Fear, probably from the dangerous
sand bars at it's mouth and the Frv-
ing Pan shoals just off it's mouth. The
river gradually took the name of cape
and became the Cape Fear.
J 6. Bladen county when it was es-
tablished in 1871 was claimed not to
! have had three freeholders, or thirty
families within it's territory. Bladen
was established by Governor Burning
/ ton and his council in defiance of the
! general assembly. In retaliation the
/ assembly at it's next session refused
| to seat the representative from the
! new county.

New York, June 1.-The Town in
Pieces: 1 saw Nancy Carroll supping
late at the Plaza the other night and
noted that she did not say a word all
evening, instead cupping her hands
under her petite chin and staring
moodily, with a faraway smile, into
space 80. Observation in passing: so
few women can look sad fetchingly
and Nancy is one -. Or maybe she
was elated and wished to enjoy her
thoughts wordlessly The late Marie
Dressler used to scowl grimly when
overjoyed -. Jock Whitney, sitting
a row ahead of me at the giggly
farce, Room Service, recalled the
upsurge of color movies on coming
production schedules -. Goldwyn will
make all his features in color, for
example, and the other studios are
upping the tinted film quotas -.
Whitney, through financial backing
and vast enthusiasm, has doubtless
done more than any other man to
bring the spectrum into the talkies
Owen Davis, probably the dramatist
with the greatest technical skill-and
certainly the most prolific-is now at
work on a play built around the re-
nowned Mr.. Tut of Arthur Trains
short stories -. Rudyard Kipling is
the only writer ever heard of who adj
mitted that he enjoyed the physical
labor of composition - His postum
nous Something of Myself" is the
successor to Gone With the Wind
and those are strange shelf-fellows, by
the way-in the gable of the booksy
set -. And while we're in the library
must yell out my delight-which is
about year late-in This Simian
World" Clarence Days unique thin
volume of gay philosophy.
his Lake Hopatcong retreat he calls
up forty or fifty friends in New York
and sends bus to haul them out to

other day to find this sryptic memo:
"Mr. Cook says please be at the bus
station at four p. m. and bring a tooth
brush" -. Unluckily I had missed the
chance, for it was after five :. The
most gregarious of the lawyers is
Arthur Garfield Hays, who once said
it was his ambition to meet every
interesting person in New York;.
His Sunday night soirecs are famous
