Unemployment Figures and Rate of Business Activity Suggest Normalcy Above 1923-1925. By RALPH HENDERSIIOT

Turin Special Financial Writer The federal reserve board Is authority for the statement that the rate of business activity in July was 95 per cent of the average rate for 1923. 1924 and 1925. Since those years have come to be regarded by many economists as closely approaching ■‘normal,” the fact that there was probably around 10.000.000 people out of work in July makes it rather obvious that the mark of reasonable prosperity at which we are shooting must be raised considerably above those levels. Unemployment estimates range over a wide area. In fact, this country never has had a satisfactory system of checking its workers. It is thought, however, that probably 2.000.000 people have been put back to work thus far under the NR A. which would leave around 9,000.000 still unemployed. It is assumed by many that 3.000.000 unemployed represents a onrmsl condition, so that 6.000 000 people must still be put track to work before we can regard trade and living conditions

as satisfactory. Inasmuch as this country appears to have embarked upon planned national economy, it would seem that among the first things to be done by the socalled Brain Trust in Washington would be to get Its bearings. It is pretty difficult to reach a goal If we do not know where we are, where we have been or where the goal we seek is located. Perhaps this will come later, however, for we do know that conditions are bad. that they have been worse and that of immediate concern is the problem of making them better. M U tt Basis for Bank Loans General Hugh S. Johnson, national recovery administrator. gives a copyrighted article in the September issue of the Bank Director the basis upon which he thinks banks can expand their loans to industry' and no doubt also the basis upon which he

Ralph Hendershot

made his recent criticism of the institutions for not co-operating fully * lth Johnson believe the banks are not justified in limiting loans to corporations or individuals in business purely on their current financial standing and their current earnings. He believes they should go into the past records of the prospective borrower and see what he was able to accomplish under favorable conditions. * n a Should Base Loans on Confidence While he does not say as much, the general apparently believes that the banks should have sufficient confidence in the NRA to make their loans on the basis of better business. And. even though they do not have such confidence, he seems to feel they should make the loans in order to co-operate with the recovery program. The adoption of the administrators policies in loan making would constitute a rather abrupt liberalization of banking principles. And, being by nature inclined toward conservatism, bankers probably will oppose the idea. ______________

J., Aug. 30.—1n the meadows near here is one of the most unique industries in the country—a crab farm, on which soft-shell crabs are collected and sorted for market. In the Crab Kraal of Ralph and Harvey Adams, thousands of crabs are kept in long wooden runways into which sea water is constantly pumped. Nearby, in a wooden building, other crabs are kept on ice to delay their hardening. All these edibles are known as blue crabs, although there are other names to indicate the various stages in development, Ralph Adams explained. When they are hard-shelled crabs they are called green, and when they have a white line they are approaching the shedding stage. Those with pink lines, the “shedders,” are the most expensive, and when they come out of their shells they are soft-shelled crabs for the next 8 or 10 hours. The Adams do not raise crabs, they explained. It takes too long. They simply go crabbing out on the Tuckahoe river, bring back their catch, and feed and sort them. The Crustacea are fed once daily, when bucketfuls of minnows are dumped into the runways. CHICAGO FECIT MARKET By United Press CHICAGO. Aug 30— Apples—Duchas* bushel. 80c.

UNEVEN RANGE MARKS TRADE IN GRAIN MART Nearby Months Weak With Distant Options Showing Strength. BY HARMAN W. NICHOLS United Press Staff Correspondent CHICAGO. Aug. 30. Wheat opened on the Board of Trade from % cent off to % cent up today. September wheat dipped % cent, to 83% cent, while December was up H, to 88. May was up %, to 93. The corn market was unsettled with September remaining unchanged over Tuesday's close. December was up 14, while May dropped *4. Oats was generally lower with September and December off !. May w r as up 14. From closing time Friday until Tuesday morning the Chicago Board of Trade will be in holiday session and it is expected that all liquidation selling will therefore be complete before Friday. Closing of September contracts for corn continued today and this had a weakening effect on the market. This fact, coupled with unfavorable weather conditions in certain parts and the lateness of the crop, tended also to weaken the market today. Transactions in oats were light while supplies on farms were said to be considerably exhausted. Cash prices remained firm.

SLEEP DEATH IOLUSROWING Fatalities Reach 49-Mark; Rush Health Experts to St. Louis. By United Press ST. LOUIS, Aug. 31.—Two more United States department of health physicians were en route here today to aid public health officials, university research men and federal scientists in their campaign against sleeping sickness. Meantime, spread of the disease continued unabated. Tuesday thir-ty-eight new cases and four additional deaths were reported. Today another victim died. This brought fatalities to forty-six and total cases in the last month to 325. Surgeon General Hugh S. Cummings ordered Dr. W. T. Harrison, laboratory expert, from Washington and Dr. Cornelius B. Phillip, specialist in the study of insects and their relation to disease, from Hamilton, Mont. Cummings, before he left for Washington Tuesday, said he would return here to direct the fight in person. No tangible results in investigations by the three United States service physicians now on the scene or research work by Washington university scientists have been forthcoming in two weeks of frenzied activity to locate the carrier of the germ or producing an immunizing serum.

Q—A man operating a lunchroom has only one girl working for him. He i* a member of the NRA and has his ca rds and stickers displaved. vet he works this girl twelve hours a dav and does not pav the minimum wage. Is he allowed to do this, since he does not employ two or more persons or is he violating the code? If he isn't allowed to do this, how many hours should the girl work and how much should she be paid. —J. J. J. A—The temporary code approved for the restaurant industry provides a maximum work week of forty-eight hours for female employes and the minimum wage, in Indianapolis, is 27 cents an hour. Deductions for meals may be made at the rate of 25 cents a meal furnished, not to exceed $3 a week. In case of emergency, time over forty-eight hours a week may be worked, provided such time is paid for at one and onethird the regular rate. No exemption is allowed because of number of employes.

n a a q—l would like to know If a man being paid by the hour is supposed to make the same amount of monev in a week at short hours as he did in long hours. I get paid bv the hour and our firm increased the hourly rate 10 per cent but the hours a week are thirtyfive. whereas we formerly worked fifty h °Sav the rate is 60 cents per hour. For fifty hours the salary is S3O. The hours have bee nshortened to thirty-five hours with a 10 per cent increase an hour, namely 66 cents an hour, which makes $23 10, or a cut of $6.90 on the week. This shortage has hurt considerably, as this amount equals my rent. Is this allowed?. I am a machinist. T R g A—Under PRA, rates are supposed to be adjusted so that the compensation of the individual is not decreased, provided this does not work an Inequitable hardship on the employer. This is subject to review by local recovery boards. MM*t Q —What la the hole! code? I am wight clerk and I still am working for $1 a week and working twelve hours a might, seven nights a week.— T. B. M A. A—No hotel code has been approved. Blue Kagle employers must carry out the provisions of PRA. Your hours would be limited to 40 a week maximum at a minimum rate of $14.50 a week in Indianapolis.

LIGHT ONION CROP IS EXPECTED IN INDIANA: Bad Weather Believed Responsible for Large Damage. By United Press' WARSAW', Ind„ Aug. 30. The onion crop in north central Indiana will be only about half of normal this year, according to J. E. Dickinson, federal onion inspector, who has just completed a survey of the fields. Dickinson said that less than twenty-five car loads of onions had been inspected in the district so far this year. He said that bad weather had caused the onions to decay and that many would be unsalable.

I sell certain products, the manufacturer I of which has not done anything about the' code at the plant, but has raised the i price on some canned goods 30 and 40 | cents a dozen.—E. F. D. A—The store signing PRA agrees, |to “support and patronize establishments which also have signed this agreement.” You might call this to the attention of the proprietor of the store in question. M M M O —ls a man has been working twelve hours a night, seven nights a week, drawing $95 20. and U cut to six hours a night, could his employer cut his wages fromSU 20 to $16.80. Can the factory do that ;or not? Understand that Mr. Roosevelt mts they can shorten tout hours, but not reduce vour salary? Is thlo right. Ana., ! also, can they work vou overtime, over si* hours a night?—V. P. A —A Definite answer requires that we know to just what industry you refer and just what position you have in mind. In general, it is the purpose of PRA not to reduce compensation below the existing levels, but any adjustments because of reduction in hours are subject to the qualifying phrase “provided it. does not work an inequitable hardship on the employer.” Some strange kinds of caterpillars can live under water.
