tnhHo the statement yesterday that men,
ktrs from all parts Of the country expect
10 bo able TO feempioy the men they laid
81 during the business panic, as result
~ the confidence which has been restored
81 the business world through the election
ol hir. Taft. A meeting OF the associa-
ton will be held in about two weeks at
which reports will be received from the
tafitug business centres.
afhe business depression was felt in
chs shop trades before IL was felt in the
dther trades, ho said, sAs early as July
lev OF the men in the machine shops,
kdd this continued until the business
asspression was at it's height. Believing
that thsre would be change for the
|4st4r II Taft was elected the wages were
not reduced. and in order to keep men
G1nployed manufacturers were making
,.a6dB for stock. 1t is too soon to predict
i6w fapid the change to the normal oondi-
Hons will be, but preparations are being
made by our members to do a largely in
creased business. The general belief Is
<ftat the recuperation will not be rapid
IL fifBt, but viii become much more 90
