OUT OUR WAY BY WILLIAMS Is the Thirty-Hour Week Inevitable? Invoking the thirty-hour week at the present time would bring a definite set-back to recovery, declares Robert L. Lund, prominent St. Louis manufacturer, in a symposium in the current Rotarian Magazine. To William Green, president presi-dent of the American Federation of Labor, however, with whom he argues the proposal, the thirty-hour week would not only help restore but help maintain a permanent prosperity. pros-perity. Assailing the popular belief that business can afford to establish the thirty-hour week, Mr. Lund, who is past president presi-dent of the National Association of Manufacturers, points out that in 11)20 only a little more than one-half of the corporations cor-porations in America earned a profit. The rest operated at a loss. And in the net operating loss exceeded three billion dollars. But industry's opposition to the thirty-hour week, he adds, is founded upon six very practical considerations. Namely: it would lower living standards; it would tend to create unemployment it would hurt, rather than improve, the workers' condition; it would retard recovery; it would b' unconstitutional; and it would not solve the unemployment unemploy-ment problem. Mr. Clreen. however, disagrees throughout. Blaming the rapid growth of labor-saving machines for such unemployment, he quotes General Hugh S. Johnson, national recovery administrator, as saying that even "if w- were bark at the 1928 or 1929 standards of prosperity, there would be -1. OdO.dOO out of work, with no way to take up the slack without a six-hour day." Industry of its own accord, Mr, Green says, will not take care' of its men in slack times, nor those thrown out of jobs by technological improvements. "That is why." he concludes, "we have unemployment today. We have- been shortening work-hours at about the same late for 1 he last half century, and we have suddenly begun to shorten work-time by using machines at a rate six limes as fast. This is why we must shorten work-hours drastically now to make a readjustment. We cannot have dial telephones, teletypes, automatic looms, giant steel presses, press-es, acres of machinery run by a handful of men and still have jobs for all unless work-hours are shorter than they ever have been in history."

SCIENCE One of the difficulties presented present-ed when a flight into the stratosphere strat-osphere is undertaken is the problem prob-lem pf protecting the pilot from the continuous bombardment of meteorites. These meteorites, many of which consume themselves them-selves in passing through the dense air blanket which covers the earth, travel at an average altitude alti-tude of 73 miles. Their speed is phenomenal, with 30 miles per second quite common. Some have been seen to go as fast as 60 miles per second. The earth is a target for these so-called shooting stars, some of the larger of which are observable from earth. Still another dilnculty presented pre-sented to the stratospheric explorer ex-plorer is the highly-charged content con-tent of the atmosphere, which is freighted with electrical fury. Some of the disturbances may involve hundreds of millions of volts at one stroke. BEHIND THE SCENES IN AA.UINGTON ii z -b a 5 b v q eT rr""" TO TO : , 27 Tb 2S Cwl "52: ! BY RODNEY DUTCIIER M: A Srrvlr Staff Correapondrnt WASHINGTON. The "money-' "money-' changers" are encountering a Htiff fight from the embattled administration ad-ministration liberals. The battleground is the White House, where every possible ounce nf pressure is being directed against the Wall Street effort to modify both the Securities Act and the stocjc market control bill now before Congress. Disciples of Justice Brandeis lead the counter-attack. They receive inspiration and counsel from the fenowy-haired liberal jurist, who believes be-lieves the rigid provisions of the Securities- Act are nothing which honest men can't meet; from Prof. Felix Frankfurter of Harvard, Har-vard, Federal Trade Commissioner James Land is two chief sponsors of the act and bill and Treasury Fiscal Adviser Marriner Eccles. Like-minded are Senator Dun-ran Dun-ran Fletcher and Congressman Bam Rayburn, committee chairmen chair-men who have the bill in charge. But standing with Wall Street in this issue, is Secretary of the Treasury Henry Morgenthau. Jr., rtnd liberals fear that Roosevelt is being won over to the other side. , Countering the argument that penalty provisions in the Securities Securi-ties Act are impeding restoration nf the capital goods market. Ec-:-les and other liberals are pushing push-ing for a huge program of government-underwritten hank loans for Siome. building and repair. (KNATOK HUGO BLACK, the airmail investigator, was all set with a resolution to cite Attorney Frank Hogan for contempt con-tempt of the Senate. Hut Sen-ntor Sen-ntor Jimmy Byrnes of South Cnroliua called, him off. WITH RQDNFV DUTCHER Byrnes pleaded fervently, not as an administration spokesman spokes-man which he often is but as an old friend of the smart lawyer who kept E. Ii. Doheny our of jail during the oil scan dais and who had incurred Senate wrath by his guidance of William I. MacGracken in the latter's vain attempt to avoid a contempt trial. T"ON'T go believing reports that this administration sown will ratify Japan's Manchurian conquests con-quests by recognizing the state of Manchukuo. Officials privately say they're quite comfortable in their position of non-recognition and interested only mildly in stories sto-ries that Germany soon may reach an agreement with Japan. Although it may become expedient expe-dient for us to recognize the "puppet state" sooner or later possibly in connection with next year's naval. treaty negotiations ' present feeling is that we aren't losing any Manchurian trade by our existing attitude, whereas recognition easily might offend the Chinese and seriously affect our large export trade with them. SECRETARY of the Navy Claude Swanson. the oldest cabinet member and lately not in very good health, is likely to resign before lopg. But no one is worrying wor-rying much about that or the identity of his successor. Former Mayor "James M. Cur-ley Cur-ley of Boston is a candidate and he or some other politician doubtless doubt-less will be named. But Roosevelt, Roose-velt, once an assistant secretary of the navy and always enthusiastically enthusi-astically interested in the fleet, always will be "his own secretary" secre-tary" there to a greater extent than in any other department.

Hateful, hateful girl! vVasn't H enough that she bad pre mipted Turn for luncheon that day. .vithout having her wished upon :htm at night. Hut she was going bark to Hoston soon, Tom had pleaded; she bad so wanted to meet bis wife. "Ye?, she docs." Gypsy had said, lightly and humorously. "Hiiiestly. darling." Tom had been hurt, bewildered by the frigidity frigid-ity in the atmosphere. Why. he had never seen Gypsy like this before! She'd always been easy and friendly with everyone. It just wasn't like her to turn crabby all af a sudden, for no good reason. Something of this he said, in :hinisy male fashion. Gypsy smiled. "I like that. 'No good reason.'" Then Gypsy had relented. Her natural amiability had come to the surface. She had paid, equably: "Never mind, darling. I'll be sweet to her. I'll be nice. I promise." Tom had been satisfied. He had been more than that, delighted. And now Gypsy was slowly congealing con-gealing again, in Vera's presence, in spite of all her good resolutions. resolu-tions. T "If she'd stop calling him 'mm-my' 'mm-my' I could bear it," Gypsy thought. "If she'd stop fluttering her hands about him, touching his arm." Brit no. Vera was of that great army of coquettes. She tnnst be forever bridling, smiling, coofng at a man. With her In the room Gypsy simply did not exist She monopolized all attention. She needed a footstool. She needed a light.

Vera lolled elegantly: on the day bed and Tom brought pillows to make her more comfortable. bride tradition. But oh, how revolting! re-volting! "I won't do it." said Gypsy. She couldn't help smiling to herself at the picture. She ran the water furiously fu-riously and went to the refrigerator refriger-ator for ice cubes. "Horrid creature!" She jammed at the ice compartment as though ramming hot Irons down Vera's spine. "What on earth are you doing?" It was Tom in the doorway, a slighty mystified and ever so slightly slight-ly bored Tom. Gypsy, rerognizing his expression, tingled to her very toe3 with delight. "Nothing at all. Just getting ice." He took her by the slmnlilor? He marched her to the door. "Look here, you run hack M:r:e and talk to Vera. I'll do the dirty work." He kissed the back of n.-r neck. "You little divvil. you!' Gypsy gave bim a gamin "O. K., boss." She went back and talked te Vera, sedately and politely. Vein turned off charm when the male left the scene. Gypsy had known she was that sort of girl. Vera went into the bedroom to freshen her makeup. When Tom appeared, with the belated water and three tall frosted glasses. Vera said that really, she must go. A boy from Princeton a heavy date was stopping stop-ping by at her cousin's house at eleven. She really must dash. They would go night-clubbing, probably. "She's making that up." said Gypsy, to herself, demure in her triumph. "She found she wasn't getting anywhere with Tom and bo she's .leaviue." But would Tommy get her a taxi? That was what Vera wanted to know. It was just around the corner, really, but she was afraid to be out alone in New York. Tom's obvious cue, at this moment, was to walk "a r. -mud the corner" (a matter of some five blocks) with her. He didn't. He rang the doorman door-man on the house-phone and asked him to have a taxi round in fifteen fif-teen minutes. He and Gypsy saw Vera to the elevator, and Tom's arm was around Gypsy's slender ; waist. I "Well!" He drew out a big, fine I handkerchief, mopping his brow In : the fashion of movie comedians. alter in u-otiating a difficult job. "1 li.-n't believe you like your old . f: i i.'!-."

She was prob-I prob-I ably just the same at noon, but you didn't notice it. Just now you were seeing her through my eyes." "Is that the way?" Tom registered regis-tered amazment. "Wonderful thing, marriage!" "Oh. Tom, I do love you!" Gypsy exploded into a lit of helpless laughter, burrowing into his gray tweed collar like a kitten. With Vera gone, everything was all right ajjaiu. They could thump the mo lioistery or the day h- d. crupty the trays of lip-stkk fct.t.ued cigaret ends, and pretend she Lad ttv.r been there. CUXDAYS were tto best, Gyr.-y found. During the week, the young Weavers parted in rather a flurry. In the evenings, people usually us-ually dropped in, or thoy read books from the lending library, or went to a picture show. Sunday was all theirs, free and golden and generous. gen-erous. Occasionally they went out to Blue Hills on Saturday night, to waken late in the big, shabby guest room, with the red maple outside. They would have a late breakfast, with Clytie generous in the matte-r of hot cakes and syrup. Mrs. Mor-ell Mor-ell seemed brighter on these occasions, occa-sions, and Gypsy's father would beam contentedly at them from behind his glasses. "What's the program todav, kids?" "I don't know." Gypsy would say. "What's planned, mother?" "Nothing but a 1 o'clock din ner," that lady would reply, eon tentedly. "You drive me to church father, and after that I'd like tc stop at the cemetery. It's Mother's Moth-er's anniversary, you know. Just you and Tom do as you please tear. You work hard all week. II you want to be here for dinner, we'd love it. But If you'd rather picnic, why Chile will tix a ba-ket for you." So, occasionally they picnickt-d ju-t the two of them, on a hi't: hill, with the bright blue skies ol late October overhead. It was fun it was glorious fun. Later they would tool the little ear back K Blue Hills, and haa tea with the family in t lie early dusk. Tht-re would be a roaring open tire.

"Why, that's only two bWrVs away from us," Gypsy said, surprised. sur-prised. "I suppose you will be seeinc hrr quite a lot." surmised Mrs. Morell, gently. It wouldn't do to tell Mums. Gypsy thought, that while she and Lila lived only two block3 apart geographically, the social gap was wider. It wasn't too likely that their circles would touch. But she was wrong about thut, as she was later to learn. (To Be Coutiiiuedi |
