formation nt aorne later date of an
ai-tunl federation of the five repub
lic. Through the treaty which, It la ex
pected, will be agreed to at the con
ference, there will be brought about a
unity in tnnny of the relatione be

countrlei", commercial and otherwise,
which may ultimately lead to political
union, It la believed.
Armament a to He Cut.
The "limitation ft armament"
agreement, which will be reached at
the conference, and which will be In
corporated In the proponed treaty
among them, will provide in a general
way. according to the preaent under
atandlng of the altuation, aa explained
in diplomatic clrclea here, that each
of the five Central American coun
trlei limit ita military forcea to what
la required for defensive purpose and
for police protection within the country
ttaelf. The aim will be to remove the
possibility of usiiiK any of these
forcea for expeditionary or offensive
purposes. If each of the countrlea
la absolutely guaranteed against at
tack by any of the other countrlea or
by revolutionary bands raised In one
of the other countries, there will be no
reed for more than a small army.
These "armies" will bo more in the
nature of "ruralea" or "civil guards," j
to protect the frontiers against foraya
and to protect the inhabitant from
thieves and other lawbreakers.
With such an agreement revolu
tion In Central America, It la te
heved, will be virtually a thing of the
past, and the continued peace and
prosperity of Central America will be
aasui'nil.

IWIIn, Nov. 11 (liy A. P.) The
eight hour day ha become the black
sheep In Cernviny'a political and eco
nomic family, born In th travail of
the revolution, na the pet child of
socialism, It hna prnwn up to be the
Infjint terrible Ibo pivot governing
the republic's tides of fortune in
both domestic and International of-
fall,
Iwitely many have raised the ques
tion () to whether an increased
amount of labor every day would eji
nblo Germany better to meet her
obligation abroad. The lame rem
edy J iigitest-d for the domestic ilia.
And the domestic troubles are many,
Including the prospective shortage of
th necessities of life during the
coming winter.
For ft long time it ho been known
that the industrl illHta opposed social
istic legislation for the eight-hour
day, yet only recently has a growing
sentiment for longer, periods of work
appeared among the older and more
moderate workers.
Members of what are known aa
Christian trades unions have express
ed their willingness to work overtime.-
They are also opposing lawa
which would rwiulre overtime labor
to be paid for on the piecework scale
rather than by the hour. Hut the
Christian trades union ar timid
when It comes to forcing tho lasue.
Their timidity is said to be due to a
fear that many of their young mem
ber would quit and Join other unions
standing rigidly for the eight-hour
day, should their own organization
too openly expose the movement for
more extensive labor. ,
Older Worker Complaisant.
A newspaper canvass recently con
ducted among the numerous Indus
tries In northwest Germany, revealed
that the older toilers as a rule favor
ed extending tha working day, but
the youths rigidly stood against the
proposition.
Data gathered by employers estl
mats that a 10-hour day would mean
a 20 to 15 per cent Increase in out
put and at the same time, a reduc
tion In general expenses ranging
from 2 to 4 per cent. t
The textile Industries, operating on
a 45 and i! hour week basis, are snld
to be tho hardest hit by the shorter
working days.
Augimt Thyssen. the Iron magnate.
was recently reported in the com
munist press aa having appealed to
Chancellor Wlrth for (he relnatate-
ment of a longer working day, on the
contention that the eight-hour .law
was largely reapnnsible for Germany's
sorry plight. He declared revocation
of the law essential If the nation was
to he savei from going under.
Elliert H. Gary, chairman of the
board of the l'nlted Htatea Steel cor.
poratlon, was reported to have re
cently soundeil Ilerr Thyssen on the
operation of the eight hour law In the
steel Industry.
