FULL DAY'S WORK Tba charge has been mad by many contractors a Bit manufacturers tbat employes do loss work at high-t-r wages, on aa average, tbat ever before, and to this condition is attributed a large share of the added costs of building construction. The claim of a falling off m productivity has been denied by representatives of labor, but it ia a matter that can be easily con3rmed in the case of bricklayers and other workers who are expected to do certain work in a day. The time of ether workers can usually be estimated and comparisons made -with, other days. "The real problem in the building industry." declares F. G. Weber, secretary of the National Building Trades Employers' Association, "is bow to get men to Uo aa honest day's work, riere and there we hear oT per capita efficiency back to normal, but the instances are tee exception and not the rule. When rreu do 75 per cent of the work they did 30 years ago the cost of building will be cut 40 per cent." Secretary Weber asserted that, for example, bricklayers 10 years ago laid on an aTerage 3.000 bricks a lay, and this number has been reduced to 1.000 or 1200 In different localities. If this comparison is correct, much of the added cost of brick work is accounted for. It is plain-that unless contractors can reduce the cost of erecting homes and other bulldlngn, little progress wll be made !n construction this year. More work for a day's pay wculd help to reduce costs, but the difficulty of securing thl3 Is not easy to overcome.

DEMOCRATIC FOOTWEAR If there is truth in the early dispatchse concerning the nary balloonists who landed at Moose Factory, Canada, the showing is far from a creditable ODe for the Navy department. The men were only one day in the air and four days cn foot after landing near IJoose Factory. Yet they are reported as compelled to eat their carrier pigeons and one of them was barefoot and the other in rags when they were found. Ia these days of concentrated" and preserved foods, and Riibstantial clothing and footwear there could, be no ossible excuse for sending the men out with provisions rnd supplies that would leave them in such condition st the end of eve days. There will be some explaining to be done either by the Nary Department or by the persons who have been describing the condition in which the men were found. Where does the Navy get V shoes that wear off a man's feet in less than four uaye, with snow as the chief surface on which the walking is done?

WHAT ARE YOU GOOD TORT The new psychological tests which will probably be used more and more to influence children and young men and women in their adoption of a permanent line of work, are an Indication of a radical change of attitude toward even Buch a vague thng ns man.s destiny. These tests and the attitude they indicate will undoubtedly work a valuable Improvement in the general process of learning, producing and living. The tests aa they are beginning to b applied and perfected in schools and factories, are fo- the purpose c-t classifying Individuals according to their natural abilities In a given field of work. The individual Is rated as inferior or (superior to a standard average, and the variety cf tests to which his intellect is subjected ia expected in time to bring out qualifications for a certain kind of effort. There Is always the danger in a taing of this kind that it will develop into repressive ' formula, by which individuals will be pigeon-holed without any opportunity to exercise their own desires. A certain classification in hi3 early years in gra.de school might possibly lead an individual and bis teachers to : ignore latent qualifications that otherwise would have developed forcibly. Furthermore, it is possible to see how a ruthless employment system might become the eole beneficiary of this test system, through a use of it

to save employers the expense of wasted industrial training. Efficiency at the expense of the individual, at the expense cf the variable human factor in even the industrial life of a people, is ultimately a loss to the Fystera that institutes It. However, the very attitude that the institution "of the test system indicates and stands for Is probably an insurance against the system's misuse. This attitude Is primarily human and secondarily scientific. This psychological test is fortbcomtnK as a substitute for the old sacred notion tbat what God wills i somehow going to make itself known. It is the attempt cf the new philosophy to take hold of things. Jl la the beginning of man's effort to decide things for himeelf with the intelligence God has given him.

DIWY FOR THREE MUSKETEERS The Nobel peace prir.o carries with if. a medal, a diploma and $4I.000 in cash. President Wilson ought to whack up with his friends. Give Newt. Baker the diploma for refusing to have cur army ready for the war. and Daniels ought to get the medal for reducing the navy to Its lowest terms on the eve of our declaration of war with Germany. As pacifist secretaries they ought to be remembered.

THE BANKRUPTCY OF NATIONS The aftermath of the world war finds nearly all the nations of Europe in a deplorable condition, financially and morally. The expenditure of men and cf money has almost ruined the nations of continental Europe, and economic disaster is well-nigh complete. France is making a brave effort to meet her obligations in the payment of interest, bu( the debt is so great that it is doubtful If au Indefinite moiatoilum. or suspension of payments on the national debt, can be avoided. The German government declares that the nation is bankrupt. Great Britain, with her vast resources, finds her

self financially handicapped by the shrinkage in the value of the poun-l sterling, and the people are taxed practically to the limit. Italy hanging on more with hope than with confidence that financial disaster may be averted. Not only did the nations of Europe contract immense debts to carry cn the war, but great amounts of currency, without the backing of gold, were issued to meet domestic obligations. This currency has depreciated so much that the people themselves have little confidence in it. and it is practically worthless in trausactiens with other nations. Troduction and markets constitute the salvation of Europe. Cheap currency must be retired from circulation by the millions, and the peoples must show by their productive industry that their credit is worthy cf confidence.
