EDUCATOR BELIEVES IN
SIX MOUR WORK DAY
. Eugene, ' Or., Oct II. Belief that
there will ultimately be, and that there
ought to be a Six hour working day for
the people of the United States, was
voiced by President Campbell of the
state university at the teachers' Insti
tute yesterday. President Campbell said
that With the perfection of machinery
which facilitates work and makes prog
ress more rapid, there will be leas ne
cessity for long hours for working men.
With the coming of this condition,- he
said, and With the elimination or tne
waste of intemperance and kindred evil,
the working man will be able to have
his own home and to rear his children
in the wholesama way that they should
be reared. ' Mr. Campbell called atten
tion to tha fact that when the 14 hour
day was in vogue It was thought impos
sible to have a 10 hour day, and that
when the 10 hour day came the man who
advocated the eight hour day was looked
upon as a visionary dreamer,
