The bonus is in addition to and entirely independent of hourly wages and differs materially from the ordinary piece work. Only good pieces of work thnt pass rigid inspection qualify the workers to earn ft bonus. All jobs will be analyzed and classified according to- the skill required of the operator, every job being assigned to one of ten bonus qualifiations. In addition to a job and bonus classification a standard table of fatigue and rest allowances, classified according to the job is adopted?from 10 per cent to 22 per cent allowances are made for fatigue and rest, the most being applied to work which puts the greatest strain on the worker. When a ob has been studied and classified, a bonus chart and instruction card is filled out and given to the worker. The instruction caVd shows the methods by which the work should be done, giving equipment, set up, total time for each part of the operation, total net time, time allowance for fatigue and the standard time for doing he job. The chart is set on the standard ,inotxi-u? 11in*" nionutuuii tnrus iur 1UU per cnt efficiency, but a man begins to earn the bonus when he reaches 60 per cent of the standard. The bonus chair also shows the amount of money which may bo earned by increasing the output. It is an attempt to pay the workers according to their ability.

Possibility of New Russo-Japanese War Moscow, Jan. 22.?The possibility of a new Russo-Japanese war, be-t cause of mutual encroachments In thef Far East, has become a subject of dis-l cussion in military cirtles here becausa of the shipment of anny physicians? and large numbers of officers for troops training purposes to Chita (Siberia)f and other points. Also troops subject* to discharge at the expiration of ser-I vice terms are being held. George V. Chitcherin, Soviet Minis-; ter of Foreign Affairs has sent many* notes to the Japanese, none of which} appears to evok nn acknowledgement.} I^eon Trotzky in his speech at thrf Ninth All-Soviet Congress plainly stated that Russia could not indefinite-i ly endure the advance of Japanese troops on territory of its ally, tha Far Eastern Republis. He had refer-j cnce, in particular, to the menace tcj Chita from Mongolia, by Japanese. j It is felt here that Russia will not| and cannot enter into any real war} with Japan, partly because of thd | great distance from Moscow and alsod the lack of food for any large bodied of trops, but that in the spring there may be mre advance guard skirmishes. In the meanwhile, the weapon of. Russia will continue to be propaganda against Japanese militarism by working through the Third Internationale among the Socialists and Communists of Japan, Korea. Mongolia and China. This is the main purpose of the I ? r* - ? luiiiiiuiiiui)^ congress nere ot f ar Eastern peoples. Many inspired articles continue to appear in the Moscow press in an effort to show tha tthe interests of Russia and the United States are identicau, as related to .lapan. At the Armament Conference in Washington Baron Shidehara, made a statement declaring that Japan had no territorial designs in Russia and giving assurances that Japanses troops would be withdrawn as soon as a stable government could be established there. Bai'on Uchida, the Japanses Foreign Minister, had announced to the Japanese Diet a few days before that Japan intended to evacuate Russian territory as soon as guarantees could be given for the safety of the lives and property of their nationals. No date when this could be accomplished was suggested in the Japanese statement to the Washington conference. Secretary Hughes announced in the conference that these Japenese assurances were ta ken to mean that Japan did not seek through her military operation in Siberia to impair the rights of the Russian people in any respect. Country Infested by Brigands - Constantinople, Feb. 21.?Simko, I the insurgent Persian leader, and his army are masters of Tabriz and threaten the overthrow of the Persian government, according to recent advices. He has succeeding in increasing the number of his followers to .r>,000 and ho is operating successfully against the Persian regular forces in the district of Urmia. The country is reported to be in Tested with his brigands, who are robbing and killing. Travel in Persia is said to be unsafe. The Persia j gepdnrmeri<v which is being reorganI ized by Swedish instructors, has be< n unable to check the insurgents. The Persian army failed to take any measures against Simko, and the War Minister, Ali Riza-Khan, an exCossack officer, has undertaken to suppress him. With the dissolution of the South Persia Fusileers and the withdrawal of the small British garrison in Persia, this country of grent natural resources is reported to have fallen into a state of chaos and confusion. 225 Producing Oil Wells Mexico City, Feb. 21.?Mexico has 225 producing oil wells with a daily capacity of 5,905,453 barrels, according to a recent statement by the Department of Commerce and Industry.

Hid-, gan and French battlefields probably will remain on foreign soi1, en account of the cost entailed in bringing them home. This is indicated in statements by the officials bureau which is entrusted with the work of helping relatives to identify the dead and arrange for the transportation o' their bodies to Germany. Although negotiations with France and Belgium for tlie removal of the bodies wfc-re concluded weeks ago, not one German soldier has been exhumed for the jouiney home, despite tin- fact that thousands of inquiries have been made by relatives. Told that they must bear the cost of ex burning and traiisportat ion, whi' h from France amounts to 30,000 marks, they turn away, for that sum is now a large fortune to the average German. Consequently, sentiment is growing to allow the German soldier dead to rest on the fields where th<y wer buried or in the French or Belgian cemeteries to which they hav boon transferred. The information that the French are carefully tending those burial places and, where possible, marking the individual grave* with crosses and names als > has tended to allay the feeling thai those dead should not remain in a strange land. Under the stipulations agreed upon, none of the three governments assumes responsibility for mistakes, and the relative must give a guarantee of identity bfore permission is granted for removal, wheih in the majority of eases is very difficult. The German office carries on negotiations with the Belgians and French to this end, which sometimes requires several weeks.

Many Reforms Regarding Motion Pictures Sydney, X. S. \V., Jan. 0.?(.By! I Mail).?Many reforms regarding the| exhibition of motion pictures, with special regard to the attendance of children at the performances, were recommended today in an official report by the Victoiian Council of Education. One of the recommendations proposed the prohibition of any pit*lure encouraging disloyalty. The total attendance at the 808 picture theatres in Australia for the year ending June MO. 10*20, was 6f>.000,000, out of a total attendance of 04,000,000 at all amusements, the ropoit stated. During the current lea'* the record showed an average attendance of 2.0(10,000 weekly at film thea tors, Australia has a picture show for every t>25() of population, the United Stales has one for every ?>,000, and fin at I'ritain has one for every fiSOO, the report said. Examination of 1 t Melbourne schools showed that 45 percent of the children attended film exhibitions more than once a week or oftcner. Of these, 20 per cent reached home after the rest of the family had retired, 117 per cent attending at night while 40 per cent attended in the afternoon, with 2.5 per cent attending both day and night. The committee expressed the opinion that no child under 15 years of age should he allowed to attend afte? G:.'50 p. m. on any school day. Even more drastic action has been proposed in New South Wales where a district magistrate, dealing with a number of youthful defendants, was requested by the prosecutor, a representative of the school department and by the Inspector of the State Children's Ilelief Department, to order that the offenders should he prevented from attending picture shows for some time. The prosecutor contended that attendance at picture theatres undoubtedly had had a had influence upon the children. The court did not accede to the request, pointing out that he could not impose such a sentence legally. Accepting Corn as Cash Mndelina, Minn., Feb. 21.?Merchants of Mndelina and farmers of the surrounding country have been hi ought together as the result of the acceptance of corn as cash in the purchase of merchandise or settlement of accounts.

The rules of the plan, which was 1,1 leceived with enthusiasm by the farmers when they saw there wi ie no strings attached to it, were as follows: 1. Any farmer was allowed to _ bring in 100 bushels of corn to any merchant and receive his pay in nun chandise or pay on account. 2. Merchants co-operating agreed to take a given amount of coin ?>n .| these terms, but had the privilege of ,, taking an additional quota from a \ v farmer owing them a hill. d.
