WHY THE LUMBER SLUMP?

The Manufacturer has been point
ing out for some time that while
members of building trades have
been advancing wages to S1.00 ana
S1.25 an hour, almost none Of this
class, or the labor class generally
are building any houses.
While wages in the building
trades have been advanced 200 to
500 per cent over pre-war times, ac
tual building labor cost has gone up
800 per cent and it requires twice
as long to build house.
1t takes twice as many carpenter
hours on job as it did five years
ago. Brick layers lay less than half
the number of brick they laid five
years ago. Plasterers, painters, paper
hangers do less than half the work
they did five years ago.
These conditions are not healthy
They cannot but infliet disaster up,
on those who foster them. Short
sighted is the man who believes that
he can produce wealth by idling. The
war created a tremendous void in
materials and commodities of all
kinds and prices are high by reason
of this scarcity.
Prices can only become lower when
the worlds storehouse has again
reached its normal level. Cost OF
dwellings will depreciate to a mark
ed extent and rentals will be lower
when the men who build homes will
do a full days work ungrudgingly
with pride in the quality and guam
tity of their output.
The unusual demands of artisans,
mechanics, and labor in all trades
has checked the demand for build
ing material and is severely hurting
the lumber industry.

COMMON SENSE

James H. Wilkerson, chairman OF
the state public utilities commission
of Illinois, following the commits
sions's announcement allowing an
increase in telephone and street car
rates says:
1.-THE operation of public utility
presents the same questions as the
conduct of any other business. The
cost of production determines the
price which must be paid by the con-
sumer.
If these public service agencies
are to function at all, they must be
permitted to obtain the revenue nee,
essary to keep them going. The fn>
creases necessary in the case of the
local utilities are substantially the
same as those which have been found
necessary and which must. be allow,
ed to the railroads. The industrial or
ganization of this nation is unit,
and general economic conditions
conditions must be recognized.
.'When the railroads, the tele-
graph, the telephone, the street car,
and the lighting and heating com,
panies5 cease to function and are I'M
able to keep up with the demand of
a growing community we have
gone back hundred years"

AMERICANS A BANKING PEOPLE


Early in life children should learn
habits of industry or they will ac,
quire habits of idleness.
One person out of five in the Unit
ed States has acquired the banking
habit.
The records show 20,SS0,S5O ac-
counts are carried on the books of
national banks alone.
Nearly half as many more had ac
counts in state banks, savings banks.
trust companies, and building and
loan associations. War loan cam
paigns in the United States familiar
lied people with the function of
banking, and they not only absorbed
billions of Liberty bonds and Victory
notes, but cultivated the nabit of do
ing business with banks. That they
have increased their deposits there
in is development of high signif1-
canoe.
Individual and demand deposits
in national banks foot up 1888,
100000, an increase or S1,701,12s.
900 compared with the figures year
ago.
1t is encouraging that bank de-
posts should increase during per-
