BACKGROUND

BACKGROUND
Fiue thousand members of
Committee for Industrial Organ
cation unions joined in Lit
tie Steel" strike in June,
1887, and left posts in Re-
public Steel Corp. Last week No
ttonal Labor Relations Board
ordered Republic to reinstate or
reimburse the strikers. Republic
has appealed from ruling.
By the Associated Press.
CLEVELAND, Nov. 2.-Police
squads stood on guard today at the
Epson division of the Republic
Steel Corp. as $50 c. I. o. members
passed through picket line of the
employe representative group.
Police said there was no disorder
as the G. I. o. men, armed with
company pass cards, sought to re-
gain posts they left during the
strike of 1887.
A. G. Wick, president of the Upson
union. said his group had thrown
up picket line as form of pro
test to register our complaint against
the Labor Boards reinstatement
decision" Wick claimed a member
ship OF 300 out of 900 workers and
said his group would not stand
for dictation from any minority
group"
Leo Casey. c. I. o. organizer. said
some OF the c. I. o. men did not re-
ceive their former jobs, but were
consigned to scrap piles.
One woman member of the
c. I. o. said she was forced away
from her machine in the threading
department, but was re-escorted into
the plant by Republic police.
Sixty-four workers who partici-
pated in the 1887 Little Steel
strike contended they were elected
forcibly by Epson union men yes
terday when they returned to their
jobs under a National Labor Re-
lations Board ruling.
The board ruled last month that
Republic must reinstate or reim-
burse 5000 strikers and disestablish
the employe representation group
as a collective bargaining agency.

them along a keyed bar. Each
characters matrix has its own
group of notches to hold it to the
bar, and they are arranged on the
principle of the key to a cylinder
door lock. When the matrix reaches
its proper place the teeth find the
bar has changed and there is moth
ing left to hold with, so the matrix
drops into its slot in the magazine
There are 20 matrices for each char
acter on each machine.
Hence, in answer to Mr.. Else
mans question, although today's
paper contains approximately IT,
$50 words of reading matter, or
about 1,207,850 separate characters,
the purchase of millions of new
characters was not necessary, since
the $4,000 matrices are used over
and over again.
Large headlines are set by hand
and then cast into solid lines on an
automatic machine known as the
Ludlow Typograph. The matrices

to make it 34,575-ten millionths of
an inch higher and correspondingly
wider. But the result can best be
appreciated by comparing q paper
Of last week with one of the new
ones.
There are other advantages Of
fered by the new type to both read
ers and newspaper editors. One
lies in "streamlining" the headlines.
The problem Of putting an adequate
heading on a news story can best
be illustrated in this way: Take
the story of the Nativity according
to st. Luke. 1t Is written in q
simple, straightforward style. Try
to tell that story as adequately and
correctly as possible in one of the
old type headings. You have two
lines Of Is letters each to work

To the Editor Of The Star:

Permit me to congratulate The
| Star upon the adoption of its new
and materially improved type style.
AS regular reader of The Star for
40 years, feel that the 4lew, easier
to-read type now used in its columns
undoubtedly will be received with
appreciation by its legion of friends.
| Adding this feature of increased
legibility to the established reader
confidence in the matter printed in
The Star, is undoubtedly another
constructive step forward.
AS a suggestion from a layman, I
DO believe that host of your read
ers would find genuine interest in a
feature article having to do with
some of the details involved in max
ing this change. For instance, I
heard two people ponder the uues-
ton as to whether it was necessary
Tor The Star to purchase millions of
new type characters, or whether the
typesetting machines are within
themselves equipped to create these
required new type characters merely
in response to the operator of the
machine as he presses the keys.
MAURICE EISEMAN.
1.-THE matter of changing the type
faces in newspaper is not so simple
as merely buying millions of new
characters. nor does the purchase
involve millions, The approximate
flgure-in The Stars change of type
is $4,000 new characters and the
change, which required all day Sum-
day, was the result of many months
of study and actual typesetting and
printing
The Star uses three kinds of type:
Machine set, hand-set and ma
chine-cast, and plain hand-set. The
great bulk of the paper is set on
Mergenthaler Linotype machines.

of the rise is not yet in sight
Meanwhile. security prices have run
up even faster than business. Hence
the question in every investors mind
today is: What should I do about
my securities?
In answering that question let
me emphasize that no one can tell
you whether the market is going
up or down next week Most of
those who attempt TO do so and
who play" the short swings eeentu-
ally end up in the poor house. They
can lose their money more pleas
antly at the race track while having
the fun of watching the horses run.
Hence, I do not want anyone to
interpret this article as a forecast
of what the market will do immed-
lately.
Business Outlook Good
Thirty-fiye years of experience in
analyzing the business cycle have
taught me one vital lesson: Securi-
ty prices depend first on the busi-
ness outlook and second on the sup
ply and demand for securities. Ger
tainly, my investigations have prov
ed that the business outlook does
not depend on security prices! Hence
because I believe that business will
continue to rise. I feel that care
fully selected stocks and bonds of
sound. progressive companies are
still attractive Not only can busi-
ness break through the all-time
highs OF 1929. but here are some
other vital considerations.
The net result of certain of these
basic factors is to create a shortage
OF good securities:
I'd Many investment channels,
which formerly were attractive,
have been narrowed or virtually
closed under new legislative set
ups. A good example of this is the
mortgage paper field. Only a few
years ago conservative investors
could always buy good mortgages
TO yield a per cent return. The home
loan first and then the FILA killed
this class of investment. Utilities
are another eXample-they are still
mattractiye To many investors be-
cause Of political saber rafting.
Pension Funds Growing
t2f Social Security program of
the government, plus pension poll
cies of individual companies, call
for big reserve funds. These re-
serves must be invested So far,
government securities have been
getting the call for this purpose.
Sooner or later, however. the de-
mand from this source will spill
over into corporation securities.
80 Bond investors are having a
hard job to pick up good new is
sues Many a company needing
capital is selling its new securities
directly TO insurance companies
This practice provides a detour
around some of the government S
restrictions and requirements on
capital offerings. Moreover, I be-
lieVe that the direct sales of new
securities TO institutional investors
will increase rather than diminish.

t4) Banks may also buy direct. A
group Of banks hungry for chance
to make two or three per cent on
their money. may together take up
an entire issue of securities. This,
of course. would further restrict
the supply of desirable investments
available to the public.
t5l This trend toward the private
sale of securities is now limited to
bonds. However, the same thing
could happen 10 new stock offer
ings. Fire insurance companies and
investment trusts are big buyers OF
stocks. They are just as eager to get
good stocks as life insurance COM
