Rubber Company
Raises Salaries
Of Its Workers
Akron. O—India Tire and
Rubber company. ridinc (hr tide
of the greatest production and
•ales in its history, this week
announced a 30 per rent salary
Increase aimed at offsetting a
Similar reduction Instituted last
January.
It was understood ah.-nir too lac
torv and 50 office workers would
benefit.
“The plan ” President W. O
Klaus said 'contemplate;, adding
to the wage and salary checks dur
ing the last six months of the fiscal
year a sufficient amount to enable
all employes to recover the pay they
were deprived of by taking the <20
per cent) cut "
That reduction he explained, was
made with the understanding em
ployes would be reimbursed "if the
organization. by its own efforts
made the company pro)liable dur
ing the first six months of the
year
other tire companies were not
expected to follow' the example at
least for the present. The industry
speeded up production last month in
an effort to avoid the federal excise
tax on tires but most companies re
cently have shortened working
weeks with consequent ieductions in
average pay checks
The India company. Klaus said
adopted a six hour, seven day a
week shift more than a year ago
The added leisure time enjoyed by
workers free from factory monotony
he asserted, was responsible in large
measure for the company's produc
tion record.
It also enabled the factory to em
ploy about 33 1-3 per cent more
men, whose average p-rchasins
power Klauss said was greater than
during the peak of the 1929 pros
perity era.

just must have a few weeks' rest or
I will break down. In fact my nerves
are all on edge now and the hoi
weather makes me more irritable ’
'My brother." replied the other
pastor, “I have been preaching .forty
years and have never taken a week
off. Really, I feel as well and strong
as when I began. I see no signs of
breaking down "
The nervous brother, who like his
fellow pastor had been reared on
the farm, offered this reply: Who
ever heard of an empty wagon
breaking down?"
Time For Prayer.
A preacher at the close of one of
his sermons said. "Let all in the
house who are paying their debts
stand up." Instantly every man.
woman, child, with one exception,
rose to their feet
The preacher seated them and
said. "Now every man not, paying
his debts stand up." The excep
tion noted, a care-worn hungry
looking individual clothed in last
summer's suit, slowly assumed a
perpendicular position.
"How is it, my friend,” asked the
minister, "that you are the only
man not to meet his obligation?"
"I run a newspaper," he meekly
answered, “and the brethren who
stood up are my subscribers, and—"
“Let us pray.” exclaimed the min
ister.
