than wood, and railroad men who used to build wooden cars are
show the MULTIPLICITY OF USES to which the steel product
Is now put, all of which proves it is on a sounder:footing than ever
before.
ONCE A LUXURY. STEEL HAS NOW BECOME A NECESSITY
But take some of the Injuries which ar bought only in flush
times. Here is where the reaction first sets in. In this department
there is now a general slowing up. Go a step further. Six months
ago railroad men could not talk with car builders The latter were
too busy to talk, and when they could talk they could pot promise
deliveries. Now, | am told, the CAR BUILDERS ARE SEEK
ING THE RAILROAD MEN. The latter, however, are shy.
1t is the same in many of the big manufacturing lines. Excess
orders piled up months ago will keep the plants going full swing
well into the fall But now there isa falling off in orders. Unless
there is a change this means the big plants that have been running
full blast will have to LET MEN GO. In that case it would not
be surprising if we heard the rattle Of a few enpt~ dinner pals.
There will be two jobs for three men instead Of THREE JOBS
FOR TWO MEN. Your skilled hborer vho has been intoxicated
with the flush of prosperity for so long won't Ike the new order
of things He viii get tired looking Tor another job and go back
to Mother Earth again and seek the STEADY LIVING which
cultivation of the soil affords. Your day laborer who has been
insisting on getting 81. 80 or So a day will be satisfied to take 80 or
40 per cent less. Your banker who has been sitting back shaking
his head and saying money is scarce will fnd that it has become a
drug IN the market. A PRESIDENT campaign win be at hand.
Now, l would call this a HEALTHY RELAXATION. 1t is
far more healthy than the disastrous panic # ten years ago or even
the reaction which preceded the last presidential election.
NOW, IT WILL PROBABLY BE LORE OR LESS A CONTROLLED
