Capital Gossip
BY HENRY AVERILL

Raleigh, Dec. 26.-Semi-skilled and
unskilled workers from the largest
group of unemployed registered with
the Employment Service, and have
the lowest educational rating, accord
ing to survey made recently by the
State Employment Service.
The educational status of women
applicants is, on the whole, better
than that of men, yet the majority of
all applicants show definite lack of
any type training to fit them for en-
ployment. Often, the highest educa.
tional rating appears among clerical
workers when it might reasonably be
expected among professional and tech
nical workers. Craftsmen compose the
largest group of skilled workers.

The Waterbury Democrat., 1937-05-25

The new system being installed by the local registrars of voters may not result in formal introductions being carried out in the future in the manner of "Afrs. K l5a, I should like to have you meet my brother, George s 490", but efficiency is pro- noted. y
 For at the present time, if you are voter with your name on the list, all but the first letter of your last name is being discarded and numbers are being substituted for the letters. Thus John Smith, be- comes John s 530. This isn't SO remarkable from an efficiency standpoint but when such names as John Kwasnosld and John S. T. R. VanHe Hetherford can be. reduced on the files to John K 632 and John V 481 the system begins to aid those who must file the names.
 Names Reduced
 But the scheme of the registrar includes not only the reduction of long names to simple letters and numbers. In addition, a little eu- phonic stuff creeps into the sys- tenn. The names which have dif- ferent spellings but which have the same sound, or almost the saflaS sound (such as Burns, Byrne, Byrnes, Barnes, BernesJ will all be placed under the same lEt as JollI1 B 480. A little practice in pronufl- citation will probably clear up any

"Turn Of the Moon" with Charlie Ruggles, Eleanore Whitney, Ben Blue, Johnny Downs and Kenny Baker heading giant cast, and f'The League of Frightened Men" with Walter Connolly, Irene Hervey, Lionel Stander and Eduardo Cian- elli conclude their engagement at Warner Brothers State tonight.
 When a secretary marrieS her boss these days, it's no longer news; but when she nnarries him just to help him save on his income tax, that's something else again.
 And that's just what happens in I'As Good As Married" which will head the new show at the State Ftarting tomorrow. Glamorous Dor- is Nolan, playing the secretary to hrchitett John Boles, accepts his proposal of marriage, though she knows aL Is purely a business arr fangement. What happens makes for the most delightful picture of Ehe esason!
 With Boles and Miss Nolan in Ehis sparkling comedy Of business hnd marriage are some of the best known and most competent players Pf Hollywood. There's Walter Pid- geon, as Boles' rival in business and in love: Alan Mowbray always good tor laugh a minute while he's on the screen; Tala Birell, a temptress From the husbands past; Katherine Alexander as Mowbray's long Suf- fering wife; and Dorothea Kent, rapidly becoming one of the most popular ingenues on the screen, Ernest Cossart, and Esther Ralsto'l. When you see "As Good As Mar ried," you'll see the very acme of motion picture presentation in every way. It's new, it's funny, it's perfectly swell!
 The companion feature will be .l'Let Them Live"-a tense, dramatic movie about doctors. which does not have any operating room scenes m lit. Heading the cast Is John How ard with Nan Grey, Judith Barrett and Edward Ellis.

difficulty in this respect. Probablyl
 The new system is technically known as the Soundex system. Two women who have installed the sys- tenn in several banks, hospitals and other such establishments are as- sisting the local staff officers and claim that the Waterbury men will be well versed in the system when they get through with them after two weeks of work on the new set- up.
 Regulations
 The rules for installing the sys- tenn have been explained as follows: The alphabet is reduced to six nu- morals and each surname is filed under the initial letter of this name with three additional numerals. All vOWels are cast aside insofar as cod- ing is concerned and H. and w. are left out except as initial let- ters. The consonantS are then placed in six groups, listed as fol- lows: Under the number (b, f, g, V); under 2 (c, g, q, k, 8, x and d) {; under 3 Id and t) under O; under 5 (m and n1: under 6 (r) In establishing a name to the code proper the first letter is always un- counted and the first three conson- ants only are allotted numerals. Double letters of equivalents, such as six, are counted only once. $ 4 Take the name Bernstein, no mat ter how it is spelled: Cross out the Be and r becomes 6, the n becomes 5 the s becomes 2 and the rest doesn't matter. John Bernstein, a man who was formerly known as such, becomes John B 652. And so do all the other men whose names, though spelled differently, are pro- nounced the same way.
 ! The entire idea may seem a bit CD complicated at first but after 3 or 4 years we'll all probably know how simple it really is.

BUS PREFERRED
TO STREET CAR

NEW YORK, Sept. 6.-Propo-
nents of the bus as a substitute
for the street car find a strong
argument here to support their
position that the bus can be used
effectively in congested areas as
well as in less thickly settled COM
munities.
Buses now carry more passen-
gers in New York than do street
cars. This is in contrast to the
situation in most large cities, par
ticularly Chicago, where 80 per
cent Of all transit riders are car.
ried on street car lines.
The bus took the lead in surface
transportation in New Yorw this
year for the first time. In the first
quarter of 1887 about SO per cent
Of all transit riders used subway
and elevated lines and 81 per cent
rode street cars and buses. Fifty
one per cent Of those using surface
facilities rode on buses.
