ANN ARBOR, Dec. 30.-Ap-
pendicitis was described as a
hazard of youth" by DR.. Doro-
thea H. Seville of the Connect
cut College for Women, at the
closing session today of the
American Student Health Associa-
ton.
The disease, which takes 5000
lives annually, hits the IS to 19
age group hardest. Doctor Sco-
vile said. However, college
students seemed to be most for
tunate. for their appendicitis
mortality rate is only one-sixth
that of other persons the same
age, she added.
'It must be that college
cases are reported earlier for
diagnosis and treatment" she
said.
Dread of hospitals, hurried liv-
ing. bad food habits and too fire.
quent use of laxatives were blamed
for the high appendicitis mortal
ity rate.

The SIS guarantee will amount
TO total of $4,000, Franken-
steen said.
Should the union decide that its
members receive the SIS guaran-
tee now, the contract provides
that the JAW may pay the money
TO the company and II will dis
tribute il among the workers. On
July | the company will then pay
back the money to the union.
I'VE have not yet decided IL
we-will do this. but should our
members need the money now
We could give II to them under
this PLAN" Frankensteen said.
NEW CLAUSE
Although the profit sharing
clause Is entirely new in a JAW
contract. Frankensteen said that
il was not necessarily a model for
future contracts in the auto in
duStry.
1T all depends upon the
financial situation of the COM
pany and whether We believe
that this would be the best
method to provide for a bonus
for the workers." he said.
The Motor Products contract
also provides clause protecting
the seniority Of men who are
drafted or who enlist in the army
and guaranteeing their Jobs when
they return. In addition. the COM
pany agrees 10 pay each employees
group life insurance while he is in
training.
Last year. FrankcnSteen said.
the Motor Products failed to make
a profit over the entire year.
although they cleared 100000 in
the first six months.
This year, with business
greatly improved because of de-
Tense orders. the profits for the
first six months should exceed
those of the same period in
1870" Frankensteen said. This
will mean that the workers will
share 10 per cent of more than
5000, 600"
The contract also provides for
time and half for Saturday work
and double time for Sundays.

Defense Bidding

Adjustment of competitive bid
ding on tool and die work and
more prompt payment by the gov
eminent for work completed would
abolish the industrial bottleneck
in Detroit, J. J. Griffin, president
of the Society of Tool and Die
Craftsmen. write in letters today
to President Roosevelt and De-
Tense Commissioner William w.
Knudsen.
Griffin said:
If the small tool and job.
manufacturer is paid perhaps 10
per cent when he is given the
order and paid a proportiOnate
additional sum when the job is
nearer completion, he will come
out of his shell and participate
in national defense.
"At the present time, In order
to get a hand In national de-
tense production. the small
manufacturer in Detroit, the
man who is the heart of ma
chinery production, must enter
into the long and wastefuf fol-
derol of competitive bidding, and
then IL he gets an order he must
wait weeks or months to get his
payment. These small producers
simply can't take it on such a
basis"
He said the present system now
wastes two months on each order
and results in the work costing
SIS instead of So an hour.

ing picture operators.
Roger NJ. Kennedy. business
agent is-the boss of the moving
picture projectionists. and also a
representative of the international
union.
When the management of the
Royal Theater refused TO employ
a stagehand on the grounds there
was no work for him to do. the
two moving picture operators Ken
nedy assigned TO the theater re-
fused to work Scheduled TO open
Friday, the theater remained dark
over the weekend.
King said union stagchands
were employed al most of the
larger theaters IN Detroit and
some houses engaged three or
-four men at a S7S to $50 per
week scale.
S2OO-A-WEEk MAN
I'VE work about az hours n
week." said King. but some
times the boys get a lot of over
time. One Of our members made
over 500 last week helping pro-
duce a show which Is going on
the road. Stagehands working
between midnight and 8 a. m.
are entitled TO the overtime
scale of $40 an hour"
King admitted that turning on
and off the lights and operating
the curtains in theaters without
stage shows consumed only a few
minutes time. Some theaters. he
declared. do not even lower the
curtain at night. but stagehands
are required nevertheless.
Pressed for details as TO the ma
ture of the extra maintenance
work the stagehands do, King
saId
well. that's hard question
TO answer. Suppose stagehand
comes to work and finds one OF
the house seats broken. He
might fix II IL II wasn't a job
for a carpenter. Maybe a light
bulb needs changing. There's
lot of little jobs like that which
our boys are glad to do"
King stressed the point that
stagehands would not conflict
with other theater employees and
said stagehands also performed
valuable public duty by constantly
being on the alert for fires.
FIRM on STAND
The moving picture operators
also are we'll paid and some re-
Cclve sos or more week.
The management OF the ROYAL
1hcater refused TO comment other
Than 10 repeat an earlier state
meni. which said
This fheater will have no
stage shows, 10 there II abso-
lutely no work OF any kind for
a stagehand TO do. Two moving
picture operators to whom We
are willing TO pay the union
scale of sos a week per man
refuse to work unless we en-
ploy a stagehand.
Because of these facts and
for no other reason whatsoever.
this theater will not open. We
will pay for all work done, but
refuse to pay a man S78 week
when there Is absolutely no
work of any kind for him to do"
