Labor Shortage is Feared If Alien Exodus
From United States Continues at Present Rate

question. BY what terms shall we
describe a labor system that permits
thousands of people to suffer for
want of proper housing while labor
all over the country is seeking en-
ployment?
Restricting the law of supply
and demand has in the past been so
insistently practsed that it has be-
come accepted by labor as a rule
and guide of their organizations.
Seeking to maintain high costs by
restricting supply is now demonstrat-
ed as faIacious. The reacting influ-
ence is shown to be always detri-
mental to labor. Labor is beginning
to learn this salutaryb lesson, and
further to realize the error of its
stoutly maintained contentious. 1t il
productivity that really is the test.
POmerOy Burton of England in an
address on labor conditions in that
country has clearly pointed out that
the chief errors of trade unionism
have been the deliberate and persist
ent policy of restricting output and
the opposing of the introduction OF
labor saving machinery He direct
ed attention to the relatively greater
prosperity of the United States, and
stated that it was because the aver
age production per workman in this
country is three times that in Eng
land.

Further complaints regarding the
difficulty Of obtaining labor suffi-
cient for increased construction work
now under way, which were accentu
ated last week by reports that thou
sands of foreigners are about to leave
this country for their native lands
with millions OF American dollars,
are expected, to force a decidedly
more acute labor situation before the
summer is far advanced, says The
American Architects Weekly Review
This development confirms the re-
cent statement of the United States
Employment service to the effect that
if the decrease in unemployed labor
continues at the same rate--approX
imately 10 per cent weekly-much
longer there will be a serious short
age.
Will Probably Result in Raises.
If there is to be a pronounced de-
pletion of labor during the coming
months, a period which will undoubt-
eddy show the greatest amount of
building operations ever known in
this country, it will probably result
in higher wages. This, in turn, may
be reflected in increased costs of
building materials, prices of which
are now holding firm in all markets
with the exception of an Upward
tendency in lumber and brick.
1t therefore becomes necessary if,
in the future, labor maintains its
present wage scale or goes to new
high levels that production must be
increased to the highest point. BY
this means there would result no
further advance in commodity prices.
AS conditions develop 1t will be less
difficult to impress on organized la
Dor the fact that the only way in
which it can hope to maintain the
present high scale is to encourage
the fullest measure of production.
1t is inconsistent to maintain that
there will be any decided cheapening
of labor in the near future, and any
hesitation as to the starting of build
ing projects based on a lower scale
of wages will not be justified. Since
1914 there has been a tremendous
narrowing of the labor supply. 1t
is estimated that a million men left
this country before we entered the
war. These men returned to Europe
in response to the call to arms of
their native countries. Now the men
who made big money in various war
enterprises here are returning to set
tie and spend it abroad. 1t is pre-
dicted that at least a million men
will remain in the army and navy
and their branches at the close of the
wear. In addition, this country is
short the millions of immigrants thai
normally would have reached here
during the past three years.
To Have Influence on Labor Condi-
| tons.
All these factors indicate that in
the not distant future when normal
building activities are resumed they
will have a large influence on labor
conditions in the United States, and
that there will exist a shortage OF
men in all lines of work. This means
that TO a greater extent than ever
before does the problem of labor
inject itself into every economic
