Humanitarian, and Economic
Te tht Eiiter ef the Svcntne PubUe Ledger:
Sir President Harding, put his ap
peal for the shorter working day for
steel mill men en humanitarian grounds.
He might alsa have stressed the eco
nomic point of Tlew.
It has been sufficiently well deter
mined te be accepted ns an estab
lished fact that the efficiency of the
worker can nut be kept nt normal for
such lenz hours an were once uni
versal in the steel industry and which
are atiil in enect te a large degree, va
rious teat were made during these days
of the war when It was se important
that labor should be as efficient ns was
humanly possible. Tests, made prin
cipally in England, determined then
that long hours are net all productive
hours, nnd that, If efficiency is te be
made the test, the short shift in the
mero economical. The efficiency of the
individual rapidly decreases after eight
hours of labor.
There are doubtless employers te
whom the humanitarian thought would
make no appeal, but te whom this eco
nomic consideration might have a de
termining effect.

The Sanest Financial
News Frem the West
One of the most valuable features of the Business and Financial Section of
the Morning PUBLIC LEDGER is the daily news dispatch by G. B. Evans, editor
of the Economist, the leading financial paper of the West, and a national author auther
ity en finance and industry.
A business man with large interests said recently: "De you knew that all
Wall Street is reading the PUBLIC LEDGER?" When asked why, he replied:
"Te get Evans's news dispatch from Chicago. Bankers say it is the clearest and
sanest financial news that ever came out of the Middle West."
Evans tells what western business men are saying and doing, describes con
ditions throughout the Middle West and summarizes the western attitude en
important political, financial and industrial questions.
This review of financial conditions in Chicago and the Central West appears
every day in the Morning PUBLIC LEDGER. It is especially valuable te the
manufacturer supplying western markets, the investor interested in western
securities ei te any business man who wishes te keep well informed en national
business conditions.
The man who daily reads the BUSINESS SECTION of the Morning PUB
LIC LEDGER can intelligently answer the question, "Hew's Business?"
