"Work and Thrift Needed"
"There is nothing the mater
with the United States today that

The speaker declared that three
things had happened to the coun-

an indefinite expansion of credit.
The result was a great scarcity OF
goods and superabundance OF
money. The people of the United
States as a consequence of the war
are poor and seem 20 think they
are rich.
Fears of Shortage Boost Price.
"As a consequence of everyone
having money and goods being
scarce, merchants and travelling
statesmen have been telling the peo-
Pile that prices would rise because
of the scarcity of goods. The
trouble became due not to produc-
ton but to a terrified demand
based upon a thought that prices
would continue to rise.
"Then people came to the con-
clusion that they could buy cheap
ei' If they waited. Demand slowed
and production caught up. The
more prices fall, the less willing
anyone is to buy anything. Manu-
facturers in the east have stopped
making fabrics in some localities
because of the falling market.
'As soon as people believe that
prices are down as low as they can
go, they will buy heavily again.
The lowering of prices will release
several billions of bank credit by
next spring, so that by then we will
have easier money. / do not think
there is danger of panic. We
have passed through a crisis and
will continue until about January.
After that the country should get
along comfortably"

various county reports had been
heard. These opened the after
noon session. The morning session

CLEARING HOUSE: T:
FOR LABOR IS
FORMED
Italian Chamber of Labor
Plans Move to Exchange
Facts About Workers in
Two Countries.
(By the Federated Press.

New York, Oct. 20.----An intcrna-
tional information exchange system
between America and Italy has been
initiated by the Italian chamber of
labor here. The organization will net
as clearing house for facts con-
cerning industrial expansion and
depression and news OF laboring
conditions in various sections of this
country, It's object is to enable
Italians who wish to cmigrate to
able occupations when they arrive
here, instead Of having them come
uninformed OF these conditions.
The chamber also receives news
from Italy, and disseminates it
among Italian residents here.
Already $4,000 Italians are af-
filiated with the chamber of labor,
according to Girolamo Valenti, its
general organizer.
"What the chamber will seek
to accomplish" he said, sis to
educate the Italian to provide a
central information bureau which
will direct Italian labor to sections
of the country where work is to
be had, and keep it from industries
where unemployment or seasonal
fluctuations shut out opportunities" !"
The chamber has numerous crafts
represented, such as the tailors,
some of the longshoremen, unskilled
workers to a small extent, and bar
bers. It will seek to do for the
Italian worker what the chamber of
commerce does for the merchant
and trader and banker-work in his
interests, promote knowledge that
will be useful to him in his Amer
lean experience, and represent him
when he is in difficulties.
