Hoosier Vagabond

EVANSVILLE, Ind. Oct. 9—Clarence Boner has been repairing watches for 30 years. At his average of 10 watches a day, it won't be long before he reaches a total of 100,000. One hundred thousand watches makes me sick. Mr. Boner has always lived in ] pase. ~~; Fyansvillee His father was a gi Me watchmaker before him. He made the great square mahogany grandfather's clock that stands in the jewelry store beside Mr. Boner's little cubbyhole workroom near the front window. Clarence Boner went first to a watch-making school at Peoria, Ill, for a year, and then served several years apprenticeship with a man who has since become one of the chief engineers of the Ham- : ilton Watch Co. Watches—and people who carry watches—have changed in Mr. Boner's day. In the old days practically all watches were “turnips”—great big horsey affairs. Today he doesn't get half a dozen “turnips” a year, In his early years, unless a watch waz two |inches across, the watchmaker thought he was being imposed upon when asked to fix it. Today 90 per cent of the watches that come to him are smaller than the very smallest one 30 years ago. The change has been so gradual that watchmakers think nothing of it,

Need Regular Cleaning

The worst things watch repairmen ever had to deal with were those long slim wrist watches for women. But the fashion has now squared them up, giving more width to the works, and they're just as easy to repair today as any. other kind. Broken main springs form the chief item in a watch repairman’s labors. And you probably don't know this—extreme changes in temperature send people's watches to the repairmen by the buckatfull. Fall and spring—that's the watchmakers busiest time. During those two seasons, he has 10 times as

THEY'RE PLAYING BINGO in Indianapolis again. Yessir, North Side, East Side, West Side—all around the town, as the song goes. Some business enterprises are starting fo squirm a little because you can't do much business with people who haven't much money left. There are at least half a dozen big games going. One ~ of them tne other night was a $3 affair with about 300 people participating. They ran three games during the night, which runs the outlay to just about - $2700. Our powers-that-be, are awfully busy looking the pther way at the moment. Chances are they'll be looking that way until Nov. 5th has/icome and gone.

Un-Hatched Again |

YOU'LL LIKELY be seeing a big increase in the number of Roosevelt buttons and pictures in the next few weeks. oo fi One local Federal employee was threatened | with arrest by a citizen who complained about the Government worker displaying a Roosevelt photo in his [front window and wearing a button. Judge Herbert Wilson wrote Senator Sherman Minton asking his viewpoint. Well, the Judge got a wire yesterday from the defender of the downtrodden Government worker saying that it was NOT a violation of the Hatch Act|jfor a Federal employee to wear a button or put a pictlire in the front window of his house. |

And here's another funny thing—after a severe electrical storm people come flooding in next mornin with broken main springs in their watches. : The average person is toward his watch just as he is toward his teeth—he should have a cleaning every six months or a year, but actually you could count on your fingers the people in Evansville who bring in their watches regularly for cleaning. Some things happen to watches that even Mr. Boner can’t explain. four inches long out of the works of a woman's wrist watch. How it ever got in there is beyond him. He says if you deliberately tried to force a hair in, you couldn't cdo it, Maybe there's a Yahudi who puts hairs in wrist watches.

Indiana Requires Examination

Mr. Boner says there's no doubt that the Swiss are still better watchmakers than the Americans. Yet there's one thing the Swiss have never yet learned to make correctly. That is the staff which carries the hands of the watch. He says one American mainufacturer has finally worked out a good one. Only two states—Indiana and Wisconsin—require their watch repairmen to take examinations and obtain certificate of registrations. He thinks all states should do it. Each year people leave a good many watches and never come back for them. Mr. Boner says it isn’t that they forget; they just never get $2.50 together all at once for the repair bill. He says that summer time is bad on wrist watches, because perspiration gets in and causes a little corrosion, and after a while a tiny little piece of that corroded metal will drop off and get in the wheels aud stop your watch. Mr. Boner has a hobby. It. isn't watches. It's tropical fish. His basement is full of tanks of various weird tropical fish he has collected. They're mighty pretty, but there isn't one of them that knows what week it is, let alone the time of day,

It tends to become what the man: makes it. This is ‘rue in scope, in policy and in method. The difference is great between a tempestuous Teddy, a comfortable Taft, a schoolniasterish Wilson, a convivial Harding, a pinched Coolidge, a promoter Hoover and a dynamic Hyde Park squire. Individual temperamerit and experience dictate. As their basic interests vary, each favors certain parts of the many-sided job. Even a President must specialize, Pressure of event and duty pushes him here and there. But eich President holds closest the powers that inspire him most, and entrusts others to subordinafes when possible. Thus the first love - of both Roosevelts has been the Navy; the second conservation. Wilson was interested in Government as an institution, in theory and mechanics of reform. For Harding, the opposite extreme, everything . was personalized—fcr better sometimes, and often for worse. Coolidge operated like a smalltime Yankee lawyer, temporarily hired by a big corporation to protect an uneasy franchise in his village. Hoover saw in the Presidency an opportunity to promote technology here and economic empire abroad; just as he had organized war relief, and earlier promoted London companies and. Chinese mines. ; Of all Presidents in this generation, Franklin Roosevelt works harder and gets mcre done—even though he often proceeds to undo it.

N response to an inquiry from Sidney Hillman, labor member of the National Defense Advisory Commission, Attorney General Jackson gave informally a very simple opinion: The finding of the National Labor Relations Board tnat-an employer is in violation of the NLRB are binding unless and until they are reversed by a court of competent jurisdiction. [| : Mr. Jackson said that this point “seems too clear to admit of controversy.” The NLR3 was ereated by Congress to assure compliance with the National Labor Relations Act. Its findings, like those of all other quasi-judicial ’ agencies, stand until they are reversed by the proper courts. Mr. Jack~ son's opinion is important because on Sept. 13 the National Defense Advisory Commissi o n

At a rule, it cannot be seriously contended that the Government should undermine the labor standards estatlished by law, It does exactly that when it awards a contract to a firm which does not meet those standards rather than to one which does. Costs as well as principles are involved. A firm which complies with the maximum hour and minimum wage law probably will have higher labor costs than a firm which does not. A firm which
