When hostilities In Europe began
early in August the most able bodied

with nearly every family affected it is
readily comprehensive that industrial
conditions ~ the warning countries
underwent a considerable change. This
condition was CAUSED by a combina-
ton Of circumstances, due in part TO
the shortage Of labor and partly due
to the temporary financial upheaval
and. above all, to the fact that the
minds Of the people were diverted
from the pursuit Of the peaceful arts
and crafts.
After the psnicky condition Of the
first few weeks a period OF readjust-
ment in the warning countries fol-
lowed. Mills again began to work,
though to a large extent with a
greatly decreased number Of hands
While the production Of the European
countries became considerably less
than in a normal year its effect on
the United States vas not In proper
ton to this decrease. as the Euro
pean consumption became unusually
small, and, contrary to expectation
a goodly quantity OF merchandise
