WASHINGTON, Oct. I (by Associ
ated Press).—Demonstrations in ac
cident prevention and first aid work
are featured in the program of the
ninth annual meeting of the Nation
al Safety Council to be held at Mil
waukee this month which is an
nounced in the American Red Cross
bulletin. First aid work will he dem
onstrated by the Red Cross bureau
of first aid and the metal and min
ting section of the National Safety
Council.
Plans for a demonstration showing
the occurrence of an accident and
rendering first aid, then an investi

been made by .T. R. Mulligan, of
the Bethlehem Steel company, to be
enacted by officers representing the
Carnegie Steel company, Midvale
Steel and Ordnance company, Cam
bria Steel company and the Red Cross
Bureau of First Aid. A new carbon
monoxide detector also will he dem
onstrated as to its accident preven
tion and first aid value.
A questionaire by the council,
and bureau of mines and the Red
Cross to ascertain the experience of
industrial concerns with first aid en

answers are expected to form the
basis of an effort by the council
^ to standardize various aftiliated or

Press).—Poles delegates here have

cling movement resulted in the cap

HALF JAPANESE PAPER
PRODUCTION IS TAKEN
OVER BY NEWSPAPERS
TOKIO. Oct. 2 (by Associated
Press).—The yearly production by
paper mills throughout Japan is
roughly given as 168.700 tons, of
which 80,000 tons are used for news
paper printing. 15,000 tons by the
government monopoly bureau for cig
arettes, 20.000 tons for the printing
of school text hooks and 16,000 tons
for the printing of magazines.
The quantity required in the print
ing of newspapers and magazines
akes 62 per cent of the total pro
duction. The demand for foreign pa
per in Japan is yearly increasing.
EXTEND PERIOD OF
COTTON CURTAILMENT
TOKIO, Oct. 3 (by Associated
Press).—The cotton spinners union
has decided on the extension of the
period of curtailment of the manu
facture of cotton yarns and to re
duce the manufacture by 40 per cent
instead of 30 tier cent. Furthermore
the union has passed a resolution
to try and increase the export of
the accumulating stocks to American
and other foreign markets.
Enquiries for the exportation of
goods to the United States have
been made but the result has proved
unsatisfactory. The market price
of cotton yarns in the United States
at present is lower than the rate
J^iuoted in Japan and the rate pro
posed by Japanese exporters is
about two cents higher than the
American rate per yard. Under these
circumstances the exportation of Jap
anese maufactures to America is
hopeless at present and the same is
true as to the exportation of cotton
cloth.

ETHEL CLAYTON SCORES
SUCCESS BY HER CHARM
IN “WOMAN’S WEAPONS”
Once more Ethel Clayton has
scored a success and won new friends
through her loveable role in the fas
cinating comedy drama “Women's
Weapons," showing for the last time
tonight at the Empress. She is so
charming and natural, her humor so
delicate, and the gentle malice with
which she literally drives her aesthe
tic rival “to the’ woods” so irresis
tible as tom ake this play stand out
above the usual run of film enter
tainment.
Sunday night, comes Bryant Wash
burn in "Something to Do.” We have
grown used to seeing Mr. Washburn
in “boob” roles and there is a pleas
ant surprise in store in this, his latest
picture. He’s not a “soft guy” at all,
but a lively young whirlwind who
manages to mix into and clean up a
lot of complications.
At the start, our hero is a young
millionaire suffering from ennui and
lack of occupation. When he con
sults a doctor who insults him for
his lack of pep, he wakes up, starts
tilings, and keeps them moving to the
end of tin' play. It’s a swift moving
comedy depending upon strength of
plot and good situations, rather than
slapstick for its amusement, and it is
one of the best things Bryant Wash
burn has done.
Monday - Geraldine Earrar will be
presented in “The Hell Fat,” and both
star and title are indicative of what
may tie anticipated in the way of
entertainment.
