GEBMAN UNEMPLOYMENT The cutting off of German industry from its source of raw material and coal by the occupation of the Ruhr district by the French and Belgian forces is already showing its effect on the labor market in Germany. A rei port published recently in the Federal Labor Journal complains that unemployment is spreading more and more, and that by now every seventeenth workman is out of work. The nuniber of factories introducing short hours is increasing daily. According to the reports submitted by 36 unions, 1,237.356 of their 5,117,661 member* are working short hours. In March, for each 100 positions open there were 310 men out of work. The labor market for women was better, as was shown by the fact that for each 100 positions open there were only 150 applicants. CHINESE SCALE Chinese scales in music were called pentatonic or five-toned scales. Each tone was named thus: Emperor. Prime Minister. Subject People, State Affairs and Picture of the Universe.

In addition to this he pays the government income tax on any profit he makes. - Sam Smith, his neighbor, who has children that go to the public school with Bill’s, whose property has the same police and fire protection, whose automobile travels on the same paved roads as Bill's, and who has all the advantages of city, county and state improvements that Bill does, has SIOO,OOO invested in tax exempt bonds and escapes all the taxation which Bill has to pay to maintain the improvements whiclfcSam enjoys. Will Bill spend another SIOO,000 to enlarge his industry? We talk about tax reduction while countenancing a system which places a premium upon tax dodging and penalizes taxpavers who maintain industry and government.

FORD MOTOR COMPANY IS TWENTY YEARS OLD Detroit, Mich., June 18, —The Ford Motor Company was twenty years old on June 16th. And this birthday anniversary finds it enjoying the greatest prosperity in its history and engaged in carrying out an expansion program of enormous magnitude, necessary to bring manufacture up to meet the ever increasing demand for Ford products. In the score of years which have passed since its incorporation on June 16, 1903, the growth of the company has been amazingly rapid and now' its activities extend to nearly every country on the .globe and the Ford car is in use in practically every land on earth. The capital originally subscribed in the company was SIOO,OOO, of which only $28,000 in cash was actually paid into the treasury. Among the twelve stockholders with the company in its infancy, Henry Ford held 25 percent of the stock. Ford “sold” his car to the public at the very start by practical demonstration, for he piloted the’ first Ford racer himself and won race after race in all parts of the country. Driving old “999” on an ice track at Baltimore Bay. Mich, he was the first to break the mile-a-minute record. In 1907 Mr. Ford acquired additional stock sufficient to bring his holdings in the company up to 58| percent. Development of the company since 1908. when the model “T’’ Ford car was put on the market, has been marked by unusual success until now it occupies the foremost position in the industry. In 1913 Mr. Ford set a new standard for the industrial world when he announced his now famous $5-a-day minimum wage and the $10,000,000 profit-sharing plan, a move that gained him international fame. Many will remember, too, a year oj so later when announcement was made that if sales went to a certain figure every Ford purchaser would receive a rebate. The* sales passed the figure and checks went out by the hun : j dreds of thousands. When in 1919 Edsel B. Ford assumed the presidency, his father turned over to him all of the responsibility of that office and he has taken an important part in all developments of the company since that time. Upon becoming president, Edsel Ford purchased the remaining °4l| percent held by outside stockholders and on July 9, 1919, the company was reorganized under the laws of Delaware for an authorized capitalization of $100,000,000. Last October the price of Ford cars was again reduced, bringing the various types to the lowest level in the history of the company. And only recently the inauguration of the Ford weekly purchase plan has opened the way to automobile ownership for additional millions of people who can now buy, Fords an weekly payments as low as $5.00.

The survey bulletin is sent to 150 oil and gas operators in the state, and is part of the division’s service in promoting these activities in this commonwealth. The bulletin sets forth that the West Princeton field, Gibson county, has 100 oil wells some of which have been pumped for 19 years. The East Princeton field.opened August 1921, has six producing wells. The Oatsville fields, Pike county, opened in 1915, wells, while the Ridgeville field.

South Jay county, opened last year, has more than 50 wells. According to Mr. Lieber, Indiana during April produced 88,000 barrels of oil; 69,000 barrels in the southwestern; J fields and 19,000 barrels in the northwestern fields. During March 83,000, barrels were produced in this state. Discovery of oil bubbling from in abandoned well on the Joseph Belcher farm, south of Monroe City, has revived interest in the Monroe City field, the report says. It is near a well from which 10 barrels of oil are daily being pumped. The best gas well reported recently came in in Shelby county when the De Prez interests Irilling in the Teal property, struck a 312 pound pressure. How valuable it will be, however, must be later determined, for the well flooded with salt water after the shot. In Wells county, the bulletin <ays, an oil well drilled by William Mason and others near the Adams county line west of Linn Grove, made 100 barrels the first twenty hours. Mr. Mason is associated in a company holding 1,000 acres under lease in this field which was worked twenty years ago but abandoned at that time because oil was cheap. The company plans extensive devetopement of its property. Summarizing operations in Indiana the report shows that in April this year 15 wells were completed having a total production of 359 barrels of oil each day. Thirty wells are being drilled at the time. o Give your skin a chance —you can’t injure it cleaning with Blue Devil Water Softener. 8-lt
