Nine Principal cities Show Decrease
From Preceding Month.

Fort Worth, Tex, Sept 49, Figures
compiled by the Texas Business Mems
Association show that building actlyl.
ties in the nine principal cities OF the
State were held in allegiance, TO a Ger.
tain extent during August, compared
with preceding months. August Is gen.
orally conceded to be one of the dull.
est months In the year in the building
line, and this, coupled with the short.
age of labor in some sections, caused
by large crops, which are demanding
attention at present, are attributed for
the slackness In construction actiyi-
ties during last month.
During August construction licenses
aggregating s1,292,3Oi were authorized
In these places, compared with sl,372,.
or for the same period OF 1913. This
is the smallest amount issued in any
one month of this year. Fort Worth
took the lead during August, having
sanctioned the issuance OF permits to-
falling $SOi,1O0 This is the highest
mark reached by that city since July.
1913, and is the first time II has held
that position In a number OF months.
Second place is held by Dallas, there
being s220,37O in contradiction licenses
granted in that place during the
month. I'll Paso also made fair
showing, and as result takes third
rank. Permits in the sum OF s217.4
were awarded in the Gate City. The
other cities which are included in this
report and the amounts issued during
August are: San Antonio, s175.005:
Houston, $153,977; Galveston, s72,612:
