ConNTING THE I0RLEss

1 The u. s. Senate has passed bill
providing for a census of the un-
employed. These people for whom
our industrial system has been able
to find no place, constitute the big
gest question mark of modern life.
The country needs to know how
many there are of them, where they
are located, and what skill they have
which we have somehow failed to
utilize.
The government collects great
volumes of statistics less essential
than these facts. More important
than almost anything else is this
question of the people for whom our
Industrial system fails to provide.
The country has much productive
power that is not being used. 1t
is said that even during the boom
times of 1929, several million were
out of work. At all times many ell
derly people are unable to find jobs.
Many married women would take
part time jobs if they could find them
If all this unused productive power
could be harnessed and put to work
the American people could produce
a much greater supply of the neces-
saries and luxuries of life.
Our scientists utilize electric and
steam power with marvellous skill.
II there are any leaks in the opera
tion of their machines, they discover
and correct them. But here we have
all this vast reserve of human pow
er lying idle.
If this census of the unemployed
is taken, let us hope that practical
use will be made of it. II is a COM
mon thing to carry on research in
quiries into various conditions need |
ing remedy, to print the results in
formidable reports. and stick the cop
les away on library shelves where |
they accumulate dust and produce no I
action. The facts about unemploy-
ment should not be so neglected. 1t
is a problem as menacing as an in
vading army threatening war 1t
can not be forgotten while our ma
tion sleeps ON in peace, or plays its
games and enjoys its sports.

HOME TOWN THOUGHTS

II a town fails to grow in trade
and advantages, it is usually its own
fault, due to failure to make use of
its opportunities.
II half the time spent in talk about
what ought to be done in the home
town, was actually spent in working
for these aims. most of them would
be accomplished.
In this rushing and hurrying world,
people are apt to forget all about
the business concerns that don't
keep themselves in the public mind
by advertising.

A HEAVENLY TRAMP

The heavenly wanderer known as
Finsler's comet, has for some days
been visible to the naked eye in the
northern heavens. If we had been
living a few centuries ago, such an
apparition would have caused ap-
prehension. For comets were once
considered a sign of war. Old peo-
pie tell with bated breath of how
such a comet appeared previous to
the terrible War between the States
of 1861 to 1865.
Then some people have always
feared that some careless comet
roaming around the heavens without
regard to speed laws, might whisk its
tail against our earth and overwhelm
our people with deadly gases. Co.
NETS contain much carbon monoxide.
II some reckless comet should blow
vast clouds of this fatal substance
over our earth, how many would be
left to tell the tale?
There is scarcely the remotest
chance that such thing could hap
pen. This Finsler comet came fair
ly near us, but even then it was 50.-
100000 good miles away. Some OBJ
servers claim that in the year 1901,
the earth was brushed by tail of
Hafflle's comet, but no one has so
far reported being knocked out in
that encounter.
The average sized comet is esti-
mated to be 10000 miles across, and !
to weigh 100000 ,OO0, 900, 900 tons. !
Our earth should keep well on its
side of the road when meeting such
travellers. and not attempt to pass
them on curves.
Some astronomers think comets !
are fragments OF the original stuff
out of which our sun and the planets
OF our system were built. They are
reminder of the grandeur of this
universe. Old philosophers used to
call man but worm Of the dust.
AS long as he can measure these CO.
NETS, and tell what they are made of,
he is a fairly intelligent worm.

Retail Wage Figures 8
Interesting

There has been lot written and
lot said about the comparative earn
ings of employees in chain stores
and in independent stores. 1t has re-
mained for the United States Depart
ment of Commerce, in its Census oi
American Business, Retail Distribu-
tion, 1888, Chains and Independents,
and Other Types of Operations" to
make available accurate information
on this subject.
II collected and analyzed figures
covering all retail stores in the
United States, and found that the
average earnings per full-time en-
ployee for all independent retailers,
was $947, and for all chain retailers,
$1,079. Breaking these figures down
by types of operation, the census
found that in grocery stores with
out meats) independents paid an av-
erage wage per full-time employee OF
1913, while chains paid $1,19l. In
combination stores groceries and
meats) the figures show average an
nual earnings per full-time employ
ee of 1899 for independents, and
s1,195 for chains.
Thus the average annual inde-
pendent wage per full-time employ
ee, for both straight grocery and
combination stores, was SIS, as COM
pared with the chain average of ST.
1873.
This census from the United Stat
es Department of Commerce is the
latest available information on
wages in the retail trade and is the
only standard of comparison based
on a broad survey.

Srecial Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, June 21-There is nc
reason for concern in the present
period OF business and financial re-
cession. Basic fundamentals of cheap
money, abundant credit. rising
national income and unsatisfied con-
sumer needs should reassert them
selves in due course. as the recovery
cycle still has considerable distance
to run. This forecast is made in an
analysis Of current conditions by
Edward B. Smith e. Co., which ex-
presses vigorous optimism regarding
both the long term and short term
course of business and finance
During any cyclical recovery such
Interruptions or losses of pace are
inevitable" says the survey. The
developments which cause them vary,
but the need for periods of quiescence
or to facilitate the digestion of pre-
vious gains is recognized by most
students of economic history.
