.H.G. Of |. REDUCTION
.RE:AIDJUSTMENT KEY

Reduction in living costs to the
consumer was put forward today by
the Federal Reserve Board as the key
to the readjustment period. The era
OF war prices must not be perpetuated
and the ''sorely tried consumer
must have an inning II the transfer
from war to peace Is effectualIy
made. the board says in its bulIetta,
made public here.
Readtustment is a problem" the
bulletin states, which involves a cur
tailment Of costs Of production to q
point where our manufacturers are
able TO satisfy domestic demand ami
compete favorably. with foreigners for
export trade. 1t involves a readjust-
ment of values generally one to an
other upon a new basis created bv
normalization Of prices and wages.
Finally, 1t involves the effective trans
Ter Of labor from war work back 20
peaee-time employment at a. stable
and satisfactory remunePation."
The board says that each of these
factors must bear its share in the
general process of readjustment. II
these do team work" the board pre-
diets a smooth recession from @the
great initiation Of prices and the aG-
ditiOns to the consumers living costs
on every side" =, .sk
In. connection with it's. analysis of
the readjustment situation, the board
directs attention to shifting OF in
vsstments without due appreciation Of
the. hazards of the situation" It
warns that dangers are particularly
acute in this respect since war
loan Is being hoated at q time when
the whole Of industry IL busily re-
organizing.
The opinion isiVoicsd that while the
great readjustment Is taxing place,
exporters. a. wen as domestic manu-
facturers, should take into account
the International trade situation New
imports are going to enter American
markets and American exporters are
going to enter new markets so that
q single industry cannot consider
only its individual self, Il was ex-
planned. It's relation to all other lines,
domestic as well as foreign; must be
considered. .

HUGE SUM IN
AUTO INDUSTRY
Holland Shows Westing-
house Correctly Esti-
mated Investment.

Ten or twelve years ago George
Westinghouse had occasion to look
into the automobile industry. for he
had perfected an apparatus for re-
sisting by means Of air pressure the
shock or pounding from rough
roads. Mr.. Westinghouse caused an
estimate to made Of the amount
Of money expended in the previous
year In the upkeep Of automobiles.
He learned that approximately
$3oo.ooo.0oo was expended for this
purpose. Looking into the future
he said that with the increase in
the automobile industry the prob
abilities were strong that within
ten or twelve years the upkeep
alone of American automobiles
would be considerably in excess of
$500. .000, 900.
Mr. Westinghouse also predicted
an increase In the capital invested
in the manufacture of automobiles; /;
that within a few years the aggre-
gate capital thus invested would be
greater than that which represent
ed any but two or three American
Inc tlLnc
might come when the United States
Steel Corporation would fnd itself
outclassed so far as capital is con-
cerned by the automobile industry.
OF course he bore in mind the steel
corporation Is n single unit in the
entire steel industry OF the United
States. whereas the automobile in
dustry represents a good many in
dividual corporations.
Were Mr.. westinghouse now alive
he would be able to turn back to
the prediction which he made some
ten years ago and find that 1t has
been vindicated.
1t has been possible to obtain au-
thentic statistics which tell OF the
stupendous growth OF the automo-
bile industry especially within the
past ten or twelve years. Partly
new wealth. partly reinvested
wealth. has been to the extent of
81. 800. .oo0. 900 invested in the capital
engaged in the manufacture of au-
tomobiles in the United States. And
yet SO far as anyone can judge this
enormous investment has not per-
ceptibly affected the employment of
capital in other industries and par
ticularly in certain ones that are
new. as for instance in the recent
large expansion of the American oil
industry. HOLLAND.
