FIRE TRAP SCHOOLS

Again the North American conti-
nent has been the scene OF a ghast-
1 ly school lire--a small college in
Montreal, in which the death list
was more than score. The hundred
odd pupils and students who were
saved owe their lives to miraculous
ly good fortune.
AS many authorities have pointed
out, the condition In thousands OF
American schools presents con-
slant hazard to their occupants. And
this is true not only of old wooden
buildings which were erected before
much was known Of fire-resistive
construction. Many a relatively new
school. though handsome and mas
sive in appearance, is honey combed
with unnecessary hazards. Inade-
auate stairways. doors that open in
ward. poorly situated fire escapes
these are but a few OF the dangers
that can be found In schools built at
great cost in recent years. as well
as in the famshackle buildings Of
yesteryear.
The school boards which have
jurisdiction over these dangerous
buildings didn't consciously approve
hazardous design and construction.
They simply didn't know any better.
But here is a case where ignorance
is no excuse-where. indeed. IL is
in the nature of a crime. No school
should be built until qualified ex-
perts have examined and approved
the blueprints. And every existing
school-no matter how safe il may /.
seem TO the layman-should be in |
spected by experts in order TO un-
earth and correct possible dangers.
Thousands Of children have died
i'm school fires that would not have
occurred had the buildings been
properly constructed. Every parent
should demand fire-safe schools.

'SlO5, 600, 900 Paid To
Unemployed In 1898
Funds Being Spent In Local
Communities For Food.
Rent and Clothing

With almost $1O5,O00,000 in unen-
ployment benefits paid to insured job
less workers in 25 States during the
first four months of 1888, r. Gordon
Wagenet, Director of the Bureau OF
Unemployment Compensation of the
Social Security Board, stated today
that unemployment insurance is ac-
complishing exactly what the propon-
ents of the Social Security Act in
tended"
"The unemployment insurance
funds" Mr.. Wagner said, "are flowing
back into the local communities and
are being spent for food, rent, cloth
ing, and services. They sustain to an
appreciable extent the purchasing
power of workers whose normal means
of livelihood have been temporarily
cut off, and thereby act as a brake
on the downward trend of business
and employment. Moreover, unemploy-
ment insurance means earned bene-
fits to the workers, not handout; a
fact which has a very great effect on
morale"
State unemployment compensation
administrators report that the effect
of unemployment insurance on work
ers' purchasing power and business
conditions has been particularly
noticeable in certain small and one
industry communities where lack of
work meant that a large segment of
the wage-earning population was de-
prived of it's regular source of income.
In such communities, payment Of
benefits to unemployed workers, the
large majority Of whom would not
have been eligible for employment on
Federal works project or for local re-
lief, has prevented serious losses to
retail business and the service indus
tries and, as a result, has tended ia
maintain employment levels in those
occupations.
More than 1O,5OO,OOO benefit checks
were issued by the rs benefit paying
States from January through May
q, each check representing a weeks
compensation for totally or par
TALLY unemployed worker. The re-
mainder of the States will begin pay
ing benefits later this year or next sc
that by July, 1889, all States will have
entered the benefit paying stage.

Mrs. Rogers stated that the impor-
tation of Japanese goods, made for
the most part at a fraction of the
cost of manufacture of similar AM
erican products, "is further aggra-
waiting this country's puzzling econ
nomic depression"
u. S. Employment Suffers
"a major part of the American
purchases from Japan" she said, "arc
articles which were originally invented
and produced in the United States.
They are limitations of American
products which have been manufac-
tured in Japan, and are being sent in
to this country, inferior in quality
and brutally lower in price. The con-
sequence is unquestionably to be read
in the mounting toll of unemployment
among our own industrial workers"
Japanese Victory Dangerous
Commenting on the present hostili-
ties in China, the Congressional de-
clared, "few in America realize that
as ruinous as is Japan's competition
today, it must become many times
worse if Japan in it's undeclared war
upon China is successful and it's
boundless treasurehouse of raw ma
terials is placed at the disposal of
Japan's industrial lords, for exploita-
ton. Today Japan buys large part

competitive world market. If the Jap
anese armies are successful in China
the problem of obtaining many of
these materials will be solved by that
country. Japan and her overlords will
then be free to launch upon greater
and more far flung economic invasion
Of the United States than we as peo-
pie have heretofore believed possible"
Mrs. Rogers concluded.
