rated and maintained for several years

the buildings to be graded in size ac-
cording to the needs of business. In
cities where. in addition to postoffice

a customs Office, an internal revenue
Office. a pension agency, etc. large
buildings are required. and the cumula-
ton of these wants should make such
claims pressing. That is the, case in
this city. A new public building in this
city is more pressing than at any other
point in the State, and should receive
the first consideration of Congress.

nal hopes to see a government building

all was well. When, however. following
the advice of Mr.. Bynum, it was an
nounced that the bonds holding the
American producer and consumer would
be cut SO that other producers could
come in on more favorable terms the
depression came. That is, the true
cause is precisely the opposite of that
assigned by Mr.. Bynum. 1t usually is.
But Mr.. Bynum. cropping along. STUN
bled upon a great truth, though he does
not comprehend it's purDort. when he
declared that 1.-THE stagnation was due
more to the inability of consumers to
make needed purchases than to any
other cause. Right, Mr.. Bynum; but
why this inability of the consumers? It
did not exist during the period the
American producer and the American
consumer We're bound together. Whv
this inability now? Why does not the
consumer purchase? Because the con-
sumner is producer himself. and as a
producer he cannot sell his labor for
the money which he did in 1S90-92, and
consequently the inability to purchase.
He is not able to sell his labor because
the markets have been opened to COM
petitorS abroad who are now selling
the same labor cheaper than the Amer
lean is wont to do. Even If the Amer
lean consumer can sell his labor or
service for the foreign price of the same
labor he could not purchase more than
60 per cent. as much as he could when
he and the employer We're bound
together, to use the Bynum smile. In
short. the consumer who is a seller OF
labor. service or skill cannot buy be-
cause he cannot first sell. The depres-
sion will last until the. consumer can
first sell.
Mr.. Bynum is not expected to under
stand so commonplace fact, but
everybody else who does not affect the
Bynum wisdom can and does.
