SWEDEN FACES
HARD WINTER

STOCKHOLM. Oct. 2S.-(By
MaiD-Prospects for the coming
winter are regarded by many Swed-
lsh business men as anything but
bright at present.
After the war blockade was lift
ed. the country became flooded with
American and English produce,
chiefly textiles, foodstuffs, and au-
tomobiles. As result, the dollar
rate scared from 800 kroner to
nearly 8. The importation OF foreign
foodstuffs soon ceased, but textiles
and automobiles are still pouring
into the country at such a rate that
an embargo upon their Importation
is being seriously considered.
The overflow has thrown thou
sands of Swedish workers out OF
employment. The great mills at
Norrkoplng and Boras have been
working only four days weekly since
August and they are now preparing
n general dismissal Of their employ
ees.
High wages. and the operation Of
the eight-hour day which has been
inforce here for year. are blamed
in some quarters for this state OF
affairs.
Swedish manufacturers, especially
Of iron and steel. are no longer able
to compete with the foreIgn-made
articles. For a time. plants have
been accumulating stocks. but signs
abound that this has reached its
limits. A strike in the building
trade has lasted for nearly a year
and the housing problem has be-
come SO acute that to rent a flat in
Stockholm or In any Of the big
Swedish centers is well nigh impos-
sibIe.
with all this. the workers con-
tinue agitsting for still higher wag-
es and shorter hours. The elections
last September resulted in disap-
proval OF the socialist regime and
the present socialist government Is
said 70 be anxious to relinquIsh.
