SENATOR CALDER
 ADVOCATES BUILDING
Declares Construction is Essential Before Normal Conditions
 Can Be Restored

"Construction is an essential in- dustry and, therefore, a preprequisite to all normal business development" ," declared Senator William A. Calder, of New York, in an address before the recent meeting of the National Fed eration of Construction Industries at Atlantic City.
 The increasing shortage of buildings of all types, he pointed out, consti- tutes a potential demand for construc- tion. Such adverse conditions as the cost of labor and materials and the timidity of investment capital are off set, he believed, by the necessity for immediate housing for a large per centage of the population who are suffering not only by the high cost of living induced by the building shortage but also in efficiency and morale, and by the encouragement which the government is giving building.
 Government construction, however, the senator said, alone can consti- ute but a small proportion of normal building and will not bring the in- dustry back to it's usual position in the life of the community. It is neces- sary, he asserted, to encourage priv ate building, which, as rapidly as pos sible, shall take over surplus labor and material and establish the in- dustry on a sound economic basis.
 Senatar Calder declared that at present there is little or no shortage of labor, and he warned his hearers that the country will remain in a state of arrested development unless the building industry not only re- resumes normal activity but also in the next two or three years produces an additional amount of construction equal to that which has been deferred during the war.
 The Division of Public Works and Construction Development has been formed in the Department of Labor to assist in the revival of building.

it was pretty cold. It is the off season there now, this accounts for our stopping at the first-class hotels. We took several trips into the noun tains and stayed until the morning of the 22nd, when we started on the way back, arriving here midnight the 23rd, all broke but satisfied.
 This happens to be "Tom & Jerry" season, but as the French absolutely refuse to sell us Tanks anything stronger than beer and light wines, we have to postpone the Tom and Jerry's until next year.
 Haven't seem anyone from Ari- zona or California that I knew since coming to France. Most of the boys I know are in the 10th Division and 91st Division, the first being camp ed not very far from here at the present but the latter somewhere in Belgium with the British.

BUILDINGS AS
 WAR MEMORIALS
Plan Being Carried Out on a Large
 Scale in England

War memorials in England are to take the form largely of spacious buildings, if the plans so far made may be taken as an indication of the general program. The United States Department of Labor has just receiv- ed information regarding it.
 The most ambitious project yet pro- posed is that of the Veterans Asso- citation, which is planning an "Im- perial Memorial" to include erection and endowment of buildings for a "Veteran's Club" with at least 1000 bed rooms, and a convalescent home for discharged men. It is estimated that at least $1,O00,000 will be re- quired to carry out the project on adequate preliminary lines.
 Another important plan calls for the erection of an Overseas Me- morial," a vast hotel for the use of all men and women from the overseas possessions. It will be built in the heart of London.
 Glasgow University purposes to erect small chapel on the west side of the present buildings.
 The Leys School Memorial Fund now exceeds $32,OO0, on which a first charge of $20,000 has been laid for the foundation of entrance and leav- ing scholarships in memory of those who have fallen in the war. It is in- tended now to secure additional sup port to provide for erection of a memorial hall in honor of the part played in the war by the old boys of Lys. Designs for the hall already has been drawn by Sir Aston Webb It would front on the Trumpington Road and would be striking archi- tectural landmark on the entrance into Cambridge. .....

'SEC0URS NATIONAL

"SecOurs National" is an or ganizatiOn of loyal and humane American men and women who are giving their time, money and effort to the alleviation of the sufferers of France and Belgium. It has been working ever since the invasion of these countries by the Hun, to relieve distress in the invaded dis tricts and have done a world of good. It is now asking for aid of the people of the United States, donations of money, food, clothing and shoes. The or ganization only had balance of $1,977.94 on the first of Febru- ary and need help badly in the replenishing of its working fund.
 Mrs. Whitney Warren, one of the best known women of New York City is at the head of the treasury department of the organization, her address being 16 E. 47th street. M. Hanotaux, who was delegated by the French government to look over the devastated field of France, reports that 'T have returned from a trip to devastat- ed France. Find it necessary to provide one hundred motor trucks for the relief stations; also shoes, canned goods, etc."
 MT. Warren, who visited the same areas, c0rrOberated the re- port of M. Hanotaux and says that conditions there are in- describable.

GOLD PRODUCTION

The secretary of the treasury of the United States has appointed a committee to "study carefully and thoroughly all the difficulties con- fronting gold production" and to Submit suggestions of sane and sound methods of relief" One of the speediest and most certain ways of increasing gold production would be for the United States government to "grubstake" gold prospectors. All the money in gold mining should not be, as practically it is now, assured the mining investor and the mining speculator. - (From the Christian Science Monitor.
