WAR BOARD HALTS

Because Unessential.

The War Industries Board called a
halt on ambitious building programmes
during the latter part of September In
many parts Of the country on the ground
that the projects we're not essential. A
broadening of activity in the carly part
of the month was mistaken by builders
as sign that the War Industries Board
had relented. ana the last two weeks oil
the month were marked by the filing OF
a number of building projects which the
Federal authorities would not permit
being erected. The general effect Of the
restrictions, according to the American
Contractor, was no doubt to lessen the
volume Of the building to be undertaken.
In view of the sharp restrictions placed
upon construction work by the Govern
ment the showing made last month
must be regarded as satisfactory. II

construction work directly undertaken
by the Government, but instead only pri-

Indiana corn yields are greatly

the large reduction in yield which
these conditions bring about.
The same organism which causes
