WAITERS TAKE TO WINDOWS Hats, Handbags, Food and Orinka Hastily Abandoned In Wild Ruth for Safety. i Seventy men and women had a scare and a narrow escape from Injury last night In Newark, when two four-story brick buildings suddenly sagged more than two feet, bringing down a shower of bricks and plaster and causing the occupants to hurry to the street.

I The two buildings Were at 72S and 730 Broad Street, the latter at the comer of Commerce Streetj In the heart of the business section. Tfe first floor of 729 Is occupied by Schiller's market, which was closed. and the other three floors by the Shanghai Restaurant. Tom Walsh's saloon, a froldover from pre-Volstead days, occupies the first floor of the corner building, the other three floors being empty. Fifty men and women were eating In the Shanghai restaurant, when there was a grinding noise and a shower of plaster with a sudden tipping of the rioors like the deck of a sailboat keeled and OY(r by a brisk oreeie.

The point where the sagging was greatest was the Juncture of the two buildings so that, as viewed from the street, they seemed to lean against each other. Three or four fire companies ana a detachment of policemen roped off the street one hundred fet each side of the two buildings, incidentally causing a temporary Jam 'of automobiles returning irom tne neaenra ai holiday, until a policeman could be stationed several blocks away to direct drivers to another route. A crowd of nearly five thousand persons gathered outside the police lines, but thinned out gradually as the excitement, waned. Investigation by the police Indicated that the areiuent was probably caused br the recent deepening of the cellar of the building occupied by the restaurant.

POINTS WAY TO HIGHER PAY Phllllps Sees It in Better Co-operation Between Labor and Capital.

ROCHESTER. N. Sept. 4. More active co-operation between labor and capital to Incease output would result In large Increases In wages.

Cyrus W. Phillips, former member of the New Tork Legislature and father of th Workmen's Compensation Law, declared In a statement Issued here today. He said that the present productive output was not sufficient to pay wages that would enable labor to enjoy a proper standard of living. Quoting statistics to show that labor could not "materially increase its Income by further reduction of the portion going to capital." Mr. Phillips, who is at present referee In compensation cases In the New York State Department of Labor.

said "It la thus apparent that the only way In which labor can materially Increase Its Income Is by a larger Industrial output. Both sides must cease all practices that arouse suspicion. Kach must cease all attempts to limit output and must stop all waste and prevent unnecessary cost. "If Industrial managers will use the most effective machinery and adopt the best administrative mrtnous lor eiimi-, rating waste, reducing coet. and In-! creasing output, and the workmen cooperate In the use of such machinery I and administrative methods, production will increase.

The managers should see that the income of the workmen Increases' as fast as the output incrrasea "It Is not too much to expect that an active co-operation In an effort to eliminate waste, cut down costs, snd Increase production would eventually result in- very large Increase In wages without raising prices. With this increase tn wages labor would not only be able to maintain a proper standard of living but would be able to Invest and become stockholders. i Kllauea in Eruption Again. IIILO, T. Sept.
