Gigs'-Not# Gags

There's a rule covering practical ly everything and it's gig if you break il. A gig is a demerit.
 At inspection, shoes are lined carefully along one side of the cot The WAAC, being in full dress un- iform, has on her dress shoes. Rang ed in order are her service shoes, tennis or exercise shoes, slippers and galoshes. Her civilian shoes, if she still has some. are in her steel locker. The shoes must be in per feet line. The shoelaees must be tucked into the shoes.
 The same regularity prevails in the locker. On a shelf is the WAAC's fatigue hat. canteen and mess kit. Below hang the raincoat, blouse, shirt, shirt, exercise suit, robe, ja- jamas, and at the left her civilian dresses.
 Most of the women already are painfully neat (NOt to infer any of them weren't before WAAC day but have you ever been in a soror- ity house?) In fact it's a bit em- barrassing when one losses away a burned match to have a WAC grab Il and put it in a receptacle almost before it hits the ground After that you put the match in your pocket.

GIN Meets Monday

General Motors directors are
expected to take action on the
final quarter dividend Monday,
and ii is anticipated that they
will continue their past policy
Of gearing dividends closely TO
earnings.
Common earnings for the first
nine months were S1.76 a share
against which the company paid
three 50-ceht dividends.
In the past, G. M. paid out a
substantial portion of its earn
ings and then ploughed the bal
snce back into the business.
However, in direct contrast, this
year adequate reserves for post
war rehabilitation are set up so
that additional funds are not so
vitality necessary during this
wartime period.
Wall Street has noted that the
corporation has not been greatly
penalized by excess profits taxes
and that In the first nine months
United States and foreign taxes
did not come anywhere near the
50 per cent limit. II Is believed
that this will continue 10 hold
true In the fourth quarter.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 81 GNSD
- A special House committee
which has been investigating the
steel situation for the last three
months is preparing to make
public its report showing that a
serious shortage Of steel, amount
ing to tens of millions OF tons,
faces the nation.
Some OF the facts covered by
the report were given by Repre-
Boykin CD OF Alabama,
Of the special steel in
vestigating committee, who said
that indications are that the
shortage will persist even after
the present steel expansion pro-
gram is completed.
Boykin suggested that the solu-
ton in part lies in a co-ordinated
program of local sponge iron
development. The committee, he
said, will recommend other means
for making melted stock from
local ore deposits by the sponge
iron process, which makes iron
from the ore by roasting IL at
low red" temperatures instead
Of melting.
"The committee found that
the existing facilities Of the
steel industry are not producing
the maximum output despite
current reports that steel Oper-
atIons are now at nearly 100
per cent of the so-called rated
capacity Boykin said. The

Limitation 20 only one bank

checks MAY soon he a reality IN
England a. the result of a re-
nor, which was issued by the
Kennel committee on banking
and insurance manpower.
Should the committees recon-
mendations for economizinG
r1anpower be carried out. the
public will not only check less
often on their accounts, but they
will also travel further 10 the
banks since many branches Will
be closed
At the outbreak Of war,
10000 persons were employed
in banking and allied businesses.
There are now 100000. including
1861 men OF military age. In
banks alone. s. per cent OF the
$1,000 male employees have been
drafted into military service.
The committee rejects the
idea Of further amalgamation,
but urges that the following
steps should be taken.
First, the closing of more
branches, which have already
been reduced from SAGE TO
6, 7T271, secondly, a more complete
adaptation of working methods
OF wartime needs( such as fuller
use of mechanical appliances by
working in shifts. or night work,
pooling Of STATS and machines
at the large branches. central
lied bookkeeping. and the extern
sion OF the use OF parttime
workers.: thirdly, further re-
duction in services 10 the public
for example, restricting Gus
toners 10 one branch and a 2:30
p. m. closing time throughout
the year; and finally. a reduc-
ton in returns of non-essential
statistics.
The committee recommends
the banks be required TO operate
Immediately with 90 per cent of
their pre-war STATS, and reduce
them TO IS per cent after next
March.
The Kennel committee does
not recommend any changes in
the number of employees of the
London Stock Exchange, since
II considers the present mainte-
nance services necessary. OF the
1900 persons working before
the war, only 6.052 are now
employed, of whom 282 are of
military age.
Before the war. British in
surance firms employed $4,000
men and $4,000 women. At the
beginning of 1912. there were
$4,000 men, of whom $500 are
waiting to be called up, and
$4,000 women. of whom 1900 are
waiting TO be drafted.
