CRITICAL NEED Oh
OPEN MARKETS.

1t is a well-known fact that the ire
mendous business built up by Mr.. Car
negie is mainly the result of his en-
terprise and nerve in cutting down la
Dor. scrapping his plant. no matter
what it cost him, provided he is able
to replace it with improved labor-sav-
ing machinery. At one time in the
Carnegie works there were 800 men
employed in a department which pro-
duced 1900 tone of metal per day. Inn
provements were made and the result
is now that 1900 tons per day is the
product of 65 men. All this has re-
suited in a steadily increasing produc-
ton at a reduced labor cost, and this
brings us to the main question: who
is going to buy the stuff"
Let us not be intoxicated by signs
of present prosperity. We must bear
in mind that during the past two years
our principal competitors. England and
Germany. have been passing through
10 boom. In the latter part of the year
1 S99 l visited some of the shops in
Germany and found them working day
and night-the principal ones being
from six months to one year behind
in their orders. Prices had been put
put up and in some cases doubled. be-
cause. as some of them said, I'VE be-
lieve that now is the time to make
money" Since this time things have
changed. Germany and England. SO
far as steel and iron manufactures are
concerned. are in a condition of de-
preston. Mills are idle, or working
on short time, and prices are down. so
that we now have to face new condi-
tions of competition. In addition to
this. foreigners, and the Germans in
particular. have caught on to our ideas
and are now in a better condition to
challenge our right to foreign mark
cts. AS these lines are written reports
are made showing a substantial fall
ing off in our exports. Our exports
of manufactures for January in round
numbers fell from $50. 000. 900 in 1900
to $32, 600. 900 in 1901. Our percentage
of manufactures exported to total ex-
ports was nearly 81 per cent in 1900.
and so far this year it shows about PAS
per cent.-W. l.. Saunders, in the En-
gineering Magazine for April.
