the principal cities. show a decrease of
only per cent as compared with those
OF the previous year. Up 10 August !,
when the European war began, the con-
struotion work was almost Identical in
volume with that OF the first seven
months OF 1913. The loss occurred en-
tirely during the last five months OF the
year. The cause was apparent TO every
one concerned in the building trades.
namely, the disarrangement of the finan-
clal market. Building operations, on ac-
count OF the large units involved in this
work, compared with most other indus
trial activities. are peculiarly sensitive
to money conditions. The unfavorable
comparison is therefore not an index of
anything intrinscally reactionary In the
building industry itself. but simply repre-

of activity. Thousands and tens OF thou
