duced activity at the mills. builders
argue that the demand will run ahead
OF the lessened supply. The natural SON
sequence would be u rise in prices.
II builders can accumulate vast stores

they will get much OF the floating sup

Large financial Interests outside Of the
building field rave begun to buy cement
and other materials IN anticipation OF
higher prices within u year or two. They
believe that lower prices are practically
out Of the question. because many such
materials have gone below the level al
which they can be produced at a profit.
They look for a speedy reorganization OF
