Pigs May Be Pigs
But They're Going
To Look Different

AUSTIN, MINI. (U,P) - The
little pig that goes to market in
the coming years may have the
familiar squeal but outside of
that he'll be a different pig.
P. J. Holland, director of the
annual national barrow show,
said his organization is "out to

it go at that Now the price OF
pork chops is an important item.
Holland said the predicted g.
sos, 900, 000-bushel corn crop will
mean more feed, more hogs and
cheaper meat. But he thinks an
improved hog is the real answer.
Breeders to Meet
Breeders of the nine major
types of hogs will gather here
Sept. 1916 for the national bar
row show, along with agriculture
experts, farmers and packing

Law Publications Show How u. S.
Is Getting Observation-Disclosures

WASHINGTON (U.P.) - For
the first time in history the U. S.
government is writing more in
ternational Claw" than domestic
law.
State Department officials dis
closed that international treaties
and agreements with various
countries will take up about A.
500 pages in the next edition of
the official U. S. compendium of
new claws"
Domestic laws enacted by Con-
gress this year take up only
about 100 pages. That's about
par for an average peace-time
session.
When Congress first began
passing legislation back in 1899,
it gave the job of publishing its
laws and international agree
ments to the secretary of state.
At first he was required only to
publish domestic laws in three
newspapers.
Huge Volumes Now
Now, he puts them out in huge
volumes called Statutes at
Large" which line the book shell
YES of lawyers offices.
Twenty years ago the pages of
domestic law turned out each
year outnumbered the pages of
international agreements four to
one. This year, it's just the re-
verse.
1.-The tail is now wagging the
dog" one official said. But he
added that it's a good sign, a
sign that this country now is
assuming more responsibility as

Flag Salute Voluntary,
Philippines Rules

MANILA (UP.)-The Philip
pines secretary of justice has
ruled that a Filipino school pu-
pill may not be forced to sa ute
the flag of his country if to do so
is gainst his religious belief
. Secretary Ramon Ozaeta ruled
that schoolgirl whose family
belonged to the religious sect,
"Jehovah's Witnesses" was
within her constitutional rights
in refusing to salute the flag
during school exercises.
"Pe"staS ion--not compulsion--
is the teachers only means to
attain the end" the ruling stat
ed.
Ozaeta cited as precedent in
the United States the United
States Supreme Court decision
in the case OF the West Virginia
State Board of Education VS..
Barnette, in 1913. II

a world power.
The major reason for the ...-
crease is that the. chaotic post
war period required many new
treaties and international agree
ments. For example, the edition
this year will include several
lengthy peace treaties with for
mer enemy nations.
Also there is the big tariff
cutting agreement which the
United States and 81 other ma
tons signed at Geneva last fall.
That alone will take up about
1000 pages.
UN Adds to Volume
The creation of the United Ma
ton also added to business on
the international front.
Still another reason for the
boom in the publishing of inter-
national agreements is that the
State department now is pub
fishing everything, including
such things as an agreement set
ting up an Educational founda-
ton in Burma" In the past it
sometimes considered such
agreements too Insignificant to
publish.
But now it's taking no chances
1t doesn't want to be accused OF
keeping any of its hundreds OF
agreements secret.
U. S. business for the first Sc
years, including domestic laws
and international agreements,
has been jammed into few vo-
lumes. But it will take six new
volumes to chronicle this years
business.

The mower, the way Hansell

Jobs for Older Workers
Called Coming Problem

; CHICAGO (U.P) - By the
year 1000 the employment of men
and women over As will be
major problem of Americas in
dustry.
Il Investigators at Northwestern
! University said the average age
of Americas workers is increas-
ing. The increase carries with it
certain significant changes in
the nations employment pro-
blems, the economists said.
The older workers will benefit
over young workers through SEN
iority, but once unemployed, the
older worker will be in for long
siege, they said. The hope of the
older union member is that his
union can write seniority clauses
into the contracts with employ
5 ers providing for his re-employ-
.ment first in case of layoffs.
Another danger to the aging
worker is the increased rate OF
archaeological change. A high
rate of change creates opportun-
fity for young workers and en-
dangers the older man, the eco
,nomists said.
An aging labor force lacks ad-
'aptability. Yet the older force
has greater stability which may
contribute to greater efficiency,
the economists concluded.
