H. vate Construction.
GOVERNMENT BIG BUILDER

There was q falling of Of IS per
cent in building operations In this
city last month over the correspond
ed cost of 36S buildings last month
was s755.4s5 as against $1.ss6.1ss for
as buildings in June. 1917.
The official figures of 144 cities as
received by the American Contractor.
New York. aggregated for June S45.-
s45,543A as compared with $62.T47,016
for Jyqe. 1917. This was a decrease
of u per cent. Losses have now been
continuous since February, 1917. This
IS declared not to be surprising. con-
eidering the high costs of construc-
tion and the discouragement of all
kinds Of unnecessary building by the
government. In many cities necessary
building Is very backward.
Not Up to Demand.
The bureau of Industrial housing
here is being importuned for much
greater aid in supplying houses for
workmen than it can extend with its
present appropriations. Projects from
fifty cities have been approved by
the housing bureau at a total esti-
mated cost of s1S9.295. 900. nearly
twice the fund available. and many
other housing projects are now under
consideration. The problem now is to
induce private capital to construct in
many cities the dwellings or other
forms of necessary construction which
the government cannot supply.
>, Vast Government Activity.
Tho statistics do not include gov
eminent construction work, which Is
now vast With unnecessary work
almost wholly eliminated, the figures
indicate, with a fair degree of ac-
curacy, the volume of urgent and es-
sential building that is now in prog
ress. This consists mainly Of factory
and residence construction, though
schools and other forms Of buildings
are considered by some communities
rs necessary.
The absence Of large structures is
indicated by the relatively slight de-
crease In the total number Of permits
issued, namely 21,11S. as compared
with 1874 for June. 1917. The aver
age size Of the permits for June is
about $4,000. compared with $2,670 for
June, 1917. An unusually large per-
centage Of permits issued last month.
were for repairs and extensions.

WAR CONGRESS ENDS
ITS SECOND SESSION

Washington.-Th second session
of the siXty-fifth, or war" congress
which began last December 8, ended
at p. M, November II, under reso-
luton which had been adopted earlier
in the day by the senate, Al to IS, and
by the house without objection.
Since the third and final session of
this congress will begin in eleven days
December 2-the adjournment was
devoid of many Of the spectacular
features usually accompanying the
ending of the sessions. President Will
son did not go to the capital, because
no legislation requiring his attention
was passed by either body and only
small groups Of members and specta-
tors waited for the falling of the gavel
of Vice-President Marshall and Speak
er Clark.
Very little business was transacted
in either house during the day, most
of the senates time being taken up
in spirited debate, while the house, af-
ter passing the adjournment resolu-
ton, recessed until just before
O'Clock The usual committees from
the senate and house waited on the
president and were advised that he
had an eleventh-hour communication
to make.

PROVEN SWAMP ROOT
AIDS WEAK KIDNEYS

The symptoms of kidney and bladder
troubles are often very distressing and
leave the system in a rundown condition.
The kidneys seem to suffer most, as al
most every victim complains of lame back
and urinary troubles which should not be
neglected, as these danger signals often
lead to more dangerous kidney troubles.
DR.. Kilmer's Swamp-Root which, so
many people say, soon heals and strength
ems the kidneys, is a splendid kidney,
liver and bladder medicine, and, being
an herbal compound, has a gentle heal
ing effect on the kidneys, which is al
most Immediately noticed in most cases
by those who use it.
A trial will convince anyone who may
be in need of it. Better get bottle from
your nearest drug store, and start treat
ment at once.
However, if you wish first to test this
great preparation send ten cents to DR..
