Profits Grow,
Wages Lag,
Survey Shows

A % per cent increase IN IN
dustrial profits during 1910, due
partly to the Nations defense
program, was forecast by the
American Federation of Labor
in it's Monthly Survey of Busi-
ness.
The Federation placed pros
pective profits of 400 leading
industrial corporations at ST.
280,0O0,OOO which approaches the
prosperity peak of 1929 and
the recovery peak of 1887. These
corporations it was said, report
ed profits during the first six
months of 1910 were up So per
cent over the same period last
year.
During this period, the FEEDER
alton said, dividend payments
were up IA per cent while earn
ers' income rose only 40 per
cent.
"Corporations have not in
creased wages as much as their
earnings permitted" the survey
said. "a larger flow of income
to workers is vital. We need the
flow of their buying power into
non-defense consumer goods in
dustries to keep these industries
growing in a normal way, pre-
vent top-heavy defense develop
ments, and build up our national
well-being."
The survey said shipments of
war materials have more than
offset losses from markets clos
ed to American products by the
war. 1t reported the cost of liv-
ing in June was up nearly 2 per
cent from that in June 1889, but
said no serious increases are ex-
pected in the near future.
A national income of $75,000,-
100000, an increase of $4,000, ,000,-
900 over 1889, was forecast.
The Federation said this coun-
try is rapidly swinging into de-
fense economy and warned un-
less the preparedness program is
carefully guided "it can disrupt
our economic life, causing booms
in some industries and depress-
ions in others destroy labor stan
dards, leave mills and men
stranded after the first years of
intense activity are over"

Supt. Paul B. Edwards stat
ed this week that the public
schools will open September 3,
1910. Children six years of age
now and those attaining six
years of age before January /,
1941, will be admitted to the
first grade upon the opening of
schools. Beginners will not be
admitted after the first two
weeks of school except by spe-
cial permission.
Children are required by law
to attend school until they are
sixteen years of age, regardless
of grade completed. They may
be excused after that age pro-
vided they have completed the
seventh grade and have regular
employment, for which they
must secure working permit at
the office of the Superintendent
of Schools.
The Board of Education has
carefully worked out definite
district boundaries, SO as to
make the present buildings serve
the people of Newark to the best
possible advantage. This year
due to the erection of larger
building in the Central district, a
change has been made enlarging
the Junior High school district
for Central school. No change
was made in the elementary
boundaries for Central. How
ever, in the Hazelwood district,
those who formerly attended
Lincoln school will now go to
Hazelwood since that school now
accommodates all six grades.
Pupils who attended the seventh
and eighth grades at Roosevelt
or Woodrow Wilson who are af-
fected by the Central boundry
change, have the permission of
the Board to attend the same
school for their ninth grade
work. Seventh and eighth grad
ers will attend the school shown
by the boundry line. Of course,
Il an unexpected congestion de-
velops in any building, a reas-
signment of pupils living nearest
a school with adequate space
will have to be made. The vari-
Gus school boundaries are listed
below so that school patrons may
know just what school their chill
dren are to attend.
The Board respectfully re-
quests that families who reside
III one district will not ask to
have their children educated in
another. The cooperation of par"
ents will make our school hous-
ing problem quite simple.

Such shades can be secured in
parchment or washable plastic in
white, ivory and beige. They are
quite inexpensive. Some even come
in sets which include clean new
candle huskS and inner diffusing
bowls to sift out glare as do the,
larger bowls in the floor lamps.
These cand1ettes are particularly
nice for wall brackets.
Lighted urns were also added to the
Welsh dresser in the room illustrated
here. They are particularly handy for
soft room-light when wax candles are
the only other light used.
In some dining rooms the ceiling
fixture is the type in which bare
bulbs hang downward. This style
can be readily modernized with sill
vered-bowl bulbs and metal shades
to give indirect lighting.
Sometimes, however, a dinin e
room has simply a single socket in
the ceiling or a drop cord over the
table. Then the answer is new
streamlined adaptor fixture which
can be screwed in like bulb. Some
of these use a silvered-bowl bulb for
indirect lighting. Among others are
parchment shades with an inner
diffusing shield and 150-watt inside
frosted bulb.
The lighting designers and engi-
neers have worked out any number
of inexpensive ways in which dining
rooms and dinettes can be blessed
with the new modern lighting.

THOROUGHLY DISGRACEFUL

No American can approve the egg
throwing episodes that involve Wendell
Willkie, the Republican candidate for the
presidency.
Neither can aly loyal American ap-
prove the booing of the President, re-
ported in various theaters and gatherings
during the political campaign.
While citizens may differ as to the
worthiness of the ideals represented by
these candidates there can be no debate as
to the discourtesy involved. The individuals
responsible can hardly be regarded as
good Americans.

NEED LESS THAN
100 HOSTESSES
WOMEN FLOOD ARMY Of
FICIALS WITH APPLI-
CATIONS

WASHINGTON, D. C, Nov 4
-FNS) The plan TO employ hos
tesses at Army camps has caused
a flood of applications to be re-
ceived not only at Washington
but at division headquarters
throughout the country.
From the tone of inquiries be-
ing received, officials said, it is
apparent that most people are
under the impression that thou
sands of such positions will be
available. Just the contrary is
true. Less than 100 hostesSes
will be needed for the entire
country and those selected must
have special qualifications for the
work, including education, ex-
ecutive ability, experience, and
must be able to provide the high
est character references.
Only two hoSteSSeS will be
needed for each camp, a chief
hostess and an assistant. To give
some idea of the number needed
it is pointed out that if the only
two women We're selected from
each state in the Union it would
be sufficient to meet present
needs. ~
Senators and congressman re-
port that they are receiving thou
sands of letters from women
seeking endorsement for such
posts and it is hoped that this
announcement will serve to ac-
quaint applicants with the actual
situation and make them realize
that the opportunity of securing
such a post is limited only TO
those of the highest qualifications
and then in competition with
hundreds equally qualified.

dominates Edward J. Flynn of the Demo-

of Secretary of Propaganda which he
describes as a possible Cabinet post that

Flynn recently made the charge that
the press of this country is under actual
dictation by the financial interests and big
advertisers. That made him about as pop

MAKING A ROOM PRETTY
N1 on a small budget is relatively
easy, particularly if the Lighting is
given thought or two.
In a recent survey of one thou
sand homes, lighting engineers found
that many dining room lighting fix
lures are not used to best advantage.
But, fortunately, there are new in
expensive ways to modernize these
fixtures. -ffI1
For example, it took but a jiffy TO
improve the fixture and light con-
dition the room illustrated here.
Before the changes were made the
colors in the room appeared dull.
They were distorted by the lighting
from bare amber-colored bulbs in
the candelabra over the table. The
bulbs were also too small in size to
contribute lighting cheer.
Then the turquoise and coral tints
in the wall paper and deep green
ish blue of the rug were lifted into
lovely rich jewel tones with new
lighting. The inexpensive but we'll
designed maple furniture took on
new honey-tints.
The change was a simple one, a
step that can be taken in many
homes where there are candelabra
fixtures or candle wall brackets.
Regular 40-watt inside frosted bulbs
were substituted to provide enough
light for easier seeing and clearer
co1ors. On the bulbs were clipped new
shades, shown above, to soften the
light, prevent glare and direct some
illumination downward on the table.
