"However, the farmers are not the only ones of this class that call for longer hours than the average. In nine out of seventeen industries, employers hiring fewer than twenty-one workers required their employees to work over fifty-four hours per week in the first quarter of 1922. In the group employing twenty-one to 100 workers, long hours for employees proved to be even more common than in the smaller enterprises at the date, for twelve out of seventeen industrial groups had full time hours more than fifty per week. Only in concerns employing over 100 men were shorter hours the rule. In that group only seven of the seventeen industries expected their men to work as much as fifty hours per week."

Round-the-World Trip in 31 Days Possibility
Paris.—The dreams of a round-the-world trip in thirty-one days are being realization. Not only is a British company planning a seventy-four hour airplane service between London and Bombay, but the French government has given permission to a French air mail company to organize twenty-four hour flights between Paris and Bucharest, thereby cutting three days from the normal travel schedule. The planes will carry sixteen passengers, a cook and a porter to make up the beds before sundown.

The machine will have a wireless telephone to keep in touch with European broadcasting stations. Extension of the line from Bucharest to Bombay is being considered and may be established before the end of the year.

In this event, allowing two days to catch a steamer on the Pacific, two days to fly across the United States and six days to cross the Atlantic, it will be possible to make the trip around.  The world in less than half.
