CONTRACTORS SAY
they ARE LOSERS

Contractors having city work
are bemoaning the fact that they
are liable to lose money on all con-
tracts entered into last year, the
work On which is being done now.
Recent advances in labor and ma
terial have destroyed the margin
of profit for the contractor.
Lumber for sidewalking and curb
ing is very hard to obtain. Rough
lumber, 3x16, which cost 81
thousand feet last year, is being
held at SIG and SIS a thousand by
the mills. Cement has advanced
50 percent and is hard to obtain at
any price. The city has recently
raised the wages of the laborers
from 1925 to $3.50 a day and the
contractors have had to follow
suit.

tary Of the simplified spelling board,
the other day to reporter of the New
York Tribune. THE FRENCH. academy
Is medieval and has never done any
thing for the French language"
DR.. Scott. who Is the chronological
editor Of the Century Dictionary, be-
lieves that the way to regulate ''spei-
ing"-for that is the word he uses-is
by campaign of education rather than
d, forcing changes on the public. 3,
~ ore agency has been needed to
check the continuing error in our spell
ing" he added. 1--WE hope that our
board will prove to be this agency. We
should place spelling on the same plane
with everything else. We alter our
houses. our clothes, and we even
change our religion. Spelling is no
more sacred than religion that we
should go on year after year with the
old puzzling forms.
I'VE want to take the English Ian
guage and regulate and simplify it and
remove the anomalies. We think 1t
wrong to be teaching the perverse
spelling that adde's the brains of the
children. We expect in time to spell
definite without the e, philosophy

away with the phs and CHS that wor-
