MAKES NEW RULES Millions of People Economy and Greater Efficiency Sought: "Open Shop" May Be Recognized AreI Can Write I vercoats -.- Overcoats !itf or lL "; i u -, , I PERMANENT STABILITY IS AIM OF SWEEPING CHANGES (By Associated Press) Chicago, Nov. 30.-Economies In operation and increased efficiency, estimated to reach $50,000,000 a year. and recognition of the "open shop" on all American railroads were fore- cast tonight in the promulgation of re- vised working rules governing rail- road shop employes by the United States Railroad Labor board. The new rules become effective Dec. 1, and take jurisdiction over ap- proimately 400,000 men immediately, although a still larger number will be affected when the normal traffic con- ditions are restored. Supplant National Agreement Far reaching changes in the rules, which supplant the national agree- ment made during federal control, were designed to afford a basis for permanent stability in the railroad shops of the country and were de- clared by members of the Labor board to be the most important work yet done by the board and of much great- er significance than any decision in the past, even including wage scale adjustments. Large economies are expected to re- sult from revision of the clasisfica- tion rules, which were made more elastic, and hereafter will permit members of certain crafts to do minor fobs previously done by members of other ,crafts. Statisticians attached to the Labor board estimated that economies in operation, increased ef- ficiency and larger output, would ap- proximate $50,000,000 a year. Provision for Minorities Provision for the representation of minorities who may have grievances is another important item of thenew rules. Under the national agreement, negotiation for employes was placed almost wholly in the hands of labor oranizations, with the result that the railroads and many industrial and civic institutions declared that the agreement forced a closed union shop on the roads. Non-union men found it impracticable to attempt to bring their grievances before the board and as the rules worked out, union officials handled the cases, taking their pre- cedent from the national agreement negotiations in which union officials acted for the employes in drawing up the agreement under federal control.

A scenario is the description of the action of a story in its proper order, but not necessarily di- vided into scenes of giving the detailed action. 2. Don't forget that the heart and soul of the scenario is its story. That is the great thing, the essential thing, and the all important thing about the scenario. If the story is a fascinating thing of heart-interest,.clean romance, adventure or mystery, then your scenaro is good at heart. 3. Stories of a dramatic type are desired. Drama makes a more definite appeal and is easier to por- tray than comedy or farcial comedy. 4. Avoid "slap-stick" and gross comedy situations. 5. Avoid sex themes or situations developed on the worn-out subject of the "eternal triangle." 6. Remember that language cannot be photo- graphed, therefore avoid lengthy description. The story must be one of action, one which may be vis- ualized. 7. Portray your characters concisely and at all times be consistent in the development of your theme. 8. It is suggested that the story be based on some plot which revolves around the University. ifU ~ and Don 't Know It!
