labor market signs OF Improvement are
already apparent. Laborers are be-
ginning to recognize that the system of
w ges paid by the hour, together with
o shorter working time, brings them
d advantage rather than advantage
The industrious and intelligent work
man is quite aware that this dcprivcs
him of the chance Of securing for him
self larger material gain in accord
ancc with his superior ability. This ex-
plains why in many concerns it is just
the workman who desires the reintro-
ductlon Of piece work. 1t may there
fore, be expected that the old methods
Will shortly be readopted md lead to
considerable increase of production
For the present, however, in
sufficient coal production is still a
factor seriously arresting the indus
trial revival. The production of coal
in the Saar district which formerly
covered almost Z per cent of Ger
mAny's total output, has ceased to be
Of avail to that country. Furthermore,
there were prolonged strikes in the re-
naming mining districts, in the spring
OF this year, followed in October by
a. other strike, though shorter, in Up
per silesa, that brought about a great
decrease in the production. Besides
the amount of labor done in the coal
N nes has tremendously fallen off in
consequence OF the cutting down of
the work shifts to 71s hours and also
on account of the fact that thousands
OF war prisoners, who were formerly
occupied in the mines, are not en-
pl0yed any longer. Another factor is
the migrating OF workmen to other in
dustries offering relatively better
wages to them. Thus the first half
year Of 1919, when compared with the
same period Of the previous year,
shows decrease in the coal produc-
ton OF Germany (eXcluding Alsace-
Lorraine) OF 31.24 million tons. Dur
ing the last few months, however, the
production has decidedly improved.
The Favorable Side
'However unfavorable the figures
may be, yet the increase of production,
which can be noticed in the last few
m onths harbingers the beginning Of
Improvement and, as stated above, the
readoption of piece work will largely
contribute to a speedy progress Of this
upward movement.
"The revival of foreign trade is of
paramount Importance for the eco
nomic and financial restoration of Ger
many. Germany needs large quantities
of food in order again to make her
population able to work and capable Of
production. Furthermore, an increased
import of raw materials is indispens-
able for a resuscitaeion of her indus
tries. This is the primary condition
or the essential increase of exports,
which until now have remained omi-
nously behind the imports. Thus in
July. 1919, imports aggregated in round
numbers 1.3 million tons to a value of
