Movement For a Five-Day
Week.
Officers of the United Mine
Workers of America sny time nt the
national convention of that body,, to
bo held early in September, there is
goinK to be a demand made for a
30-hour week, the working time to be
divided in five days of six hours each.
Alone; with this short day and short
week combination thero is to bo n
demand for a wage increase of 40 to
(id per cent over the present scale.
AIoiib with th;s remarkable pro
posal must be placed the demand of
12,000 union painters and decorators
in New York who, though not demand
ing such short hours lis tho miners,
have actually gone on strike to obtain
a five-day week, thuB precipita'irf thiv
five-day movement in the united
States.
These demands arc nnlurally re
garded with keen interest by the ma
jority of Americans, who would re
joice just as much as the miners and
painters In the prospect of a six-hour
dny or n five-day week, but who do not
sec any immediate ( possibility of
either.
Where is the farmer who puts in
so short n day or week? Where is
the newspaper man, or doctor, or mer
chant, or banker, who can attain that
desirable gdnl of case? Whore is the
housewife who hopes ever to get her
work done in 110 hours a week?
It is well to aspire to such ease as
this, anil work constructively for the
creation of conditions making it
possible, not for nny single class, but
for all classes. Hut it is necessary
for people who realize the actual
plight of the nation and the world to
day to keep repeating that this is no
time for such extravagant ventures.
Thero has been fJOIU)00,00(l,000
Worth of wealth ilestroped by the war.
Tho need of the time is the production
of more wealth to make up that lass.
Until more is produced, more ennuot
be distributed. To work fewer days
nnd fewer hours is to limit produc
tion, retard the replacement of the lost
wealth, keep up prices, and make ev

Work productively only six honrs out

An Election Problem Very
Promptly Met.
The Cuban election lawn have been
overhauled nnd completely rewritten,
and an American has done it.
Major General Crowdcr, who was
provost marshal-general of the United
States army during the war, and who
handled the draft, was invited to the
island for this purpose by the Cuban
government, lie spent four months
there, nnd seems to have done n thor
ough job.
lie took the election machinery out
of the hands of the political parties,
as some of our stales have done, and
put it in charge of the judiciary, giv
ing the party orguniziit oris represen
tation but no votes. He established a
strict corrupt practices act and made
it possible for any aggrieved person
to get n square deal in an election dis
pute, lie brought nil political orgii
ni.nt oris under stntiitoiy regulation,
arranged for n census of voters and
originated a plan whereby every voter
will carry an identification card en
titling him to vote without registra
tion. Having returned to th's country,
General Crowdcr might profitably de
vote his attention to extending the re
forms he hns inaugurated in Cuba.
There is hardly one of them that might
not be adopted to advantage by some
that every occupation of our states. That identification de
vice would probably make n h t with
the average American voter, wearied
of nuioh registering, and might result
ill n better turn-nut on election day.
Foreign residents nre still buying
thrift stamps. A good . many natives
are selling those they collected last
year and year before, and buying gas
oline with the proceeds.
