CHICAGO. Nov. 18 (U. P.).—Dr.

He expressed the belief that a 50hour work week (would, in many cases, decrease output because of fatigue. Under ordinary circumstances, he said, 40 hours a week is long enough for any person to work.

D) lacts as “interviewer.”

He and perhaps 100 other men are to be submitted to an intelligence test. It provides a quick and reliable classification of men, according to their general capacity to learn. It does not profess to test such qualities as honesty, truthful ness, courage, etc. Each man is handed a sheet. The test material is so arranged that a man may reply to questions by marking on an answer sheet.

The papers‘are later scored by an

ingenious set of stencils, so that nothing is left to personal judgment. The scoring is practically automatic. One hour is usually allowed for this test. There is another set of test cards for illiterates or -for men who speak only a foreign language. The grade, a man earns in these tests furnishes a fairly reliable index of his ability to learn; to think quickly and accurately; to analyze a situation; to maintain a state of mental alertness; and to comprehend and follow instructions. Grades are as follows: Grade 1—Very superior intelli gence. This is earned by about seven in every 100. Indicates men of high officer type, if they also possess leadership and equcation. . Grade 2-—"Superior intelligence. Earned by 24 out of 100 men. This group , furnishes junior commissioned “and many non-commissioned officers. Grade 3. Average intelligence.

SHOWOFF’ STUDENTS BLAMED IN CRASHES

WASHINGTON, Nov. 18 (U. P)). —More than 40 per cent of all fatal airplane crashes in the past year were caused by student pilots “showing off” to friends accompanying them on training fights, the Civil Aeronautics Board said today. The CAB warned that only a qualified instructor should accompany a student on any flight, and added: “An unfinished pilot in a “show-

off” mood is a menace we do not propose to tolerate.”

Sends War Department Aid To Negotiate in Vultee Tieup.

DOWNEY, Cal, Nov. 18 (U, PJ.— The War Department took a hand

at the Vultee aircraft factory. Maj. Sidney Simpson, whom the War

Washington, said he expected ‘to bring company officials and representatives of the striking United Automobile Workers’ (C. I. OJ) union together today. - : . The strike has been in progress since Friday, when the union called more than 3000 members out of the plant because Vultee refused a 25 cent per hour increase in the minimum wage scale. Vultee was building more than $80,000,000 worth of fast warplanes and trainers for the United States and Great Britain. Mr. Simpson and Arnold Tolles of the National Defense Commission flew here yesterday from Washington and immediately conferred with Lyman Sisley and E. H. Fitzgerald, Federal conciliators. Mr. Simpson said the situation “doesn’t look too hopeful.” He denied reports that the War Department might consider a revision of its contract with Vultee, allowing the company to pay higher wages. Seventeen pilots arrived yesterday in a heavy rain to fly away 17 planes that had been finished before the strike started. After taking off, the weather forced them to return, but later they took off again and headed for Moffett Field, Cal. Left behind were 20 more planes which need only a few finishing touches. Elsewhere in the plant were 100 more planes in earlier stages of construction. The ships are BY13's, basic trainers, of which the Army has ordered 2500.
