BoSton.-Q. N. S)--Not only this
city but all the rest OF New England
is suffering from a shortage Of build
ing materials, according to leading
members OF the building trades Peo-
pie have been urged to build to over
come the terrific demand for tene-
ments, but that contractors, though
they now report help as fairly plenti-
full, cannot get the wherewithal to
build.
First there was the lumber shortage
attributed to inability of the railroads
to move the sawn boards and timbers
to the large centers OF population. Now
dealers say scores Of houses here are
standing unfinished because Of the
scarcity of cement, which is shipped
here largely from Pennsylvania and New
York state. This is again laid to con-
gestion in transportation. In the mean
time the price Of cement has scared
about $50 per cent, according to esti-
mates thought to be conservative.
Owing to this state of affairs there
are many New England sections where
now, for the first time in history, 1t is
cheaper to build brick house than
cement one. In Portsmouth, n. H., for
example, the big steel shipbuildng plant
put up veritabe village of brick
houses for its workers, finding them the
most inexpensive under prevailing con-
ditions. Previous to the time these
houses were built, 1t is said, not a
single brick dwelling house had been
erected in Portsmouth for nearly half

MEXICO WANTS
TOENTERLEAC
Will Seek Admission as Soon
as World Powers ReCog-
nize New Regime.
10y MILTON eRoNNER, European
Manager, N. e. A.

"SHd9eTI W. e. 81
London.-As soon as a majority OF Inn
poltant powers recognize the present
Mexican government, Mexico will ask
admission to the league OF nations, the
Mexican embassy here told me today.
In the meantime, no embassy represen-
tatives will be sent to observe league
proceedings at Geneva,
League of nations officials inform me
that TO date Mexico has neither asked
nor been invited TO membership. The
annex to the covenant of the league of
nations specifically omitted Cost Rica,
San Domingo and Mexico at the request
Of President Wilson.
Why He Objected.
The president objected to MeXicos
entrance because of general conditions
in the country; to Costa Rica because
OF his objections to President Tinocco
and san Domingo because United States
marines are in occupation.
One OF the covenants provides for the
admission to the league of any fully self
governing state, dominion or colony not
named in the annex, If the admission is
agreed to by two-thirds of the ASSEMBLY
The covenant also provides that such
states shall give effective guarantees of
sincere intention to observe internal
tional obligations and accept such regu-
lations as may be prescribed by the
league with respect to its military, naval
and air forces and ornaments.
Nations expecting to ask admission
have already given formal notice so that
the permanent armament commission
which is meeting at Brussels may go
over its reports and determine whether
the prospective member-nation has
Gonformed to required provisions
If Mexico now applied for admission.
Or was proposed by some other power,
she might now be too late to be con-
sidered by the coming assembly In
Geneva, unless her admission was made
a special order of business and con-
Behind In Payments.
Mexico is in arrears in payments OF
debts owed, America, England and
France and oil interests of these coun-
tries are in dispute with her govern
ment. While the covenant makes no
mention OF these considerations I'M
doubtedly the league powers would give
them weight. g.
Furthermore, while the United States is
not member of the league, the powers
would be averse to any move which
might embarrass the United States.
This is especially true when it is inn
possible to decide now what the rela-
ton of America to Mexico will be with
a new president in office.
Costa Rica through her minister to
France, has filed formal application for
admission to the league, stating that
she maintains friendly relations with all
civilized powers and has at all times
observed and now has a sincere inten-
tion to scrupulously fulfill international
obligations. She further states her
population Is peaceful and industrial,
governed by just and liberal laws and
that she maintains only such military
and police forces as are Indispensable to
assurance Of respect for public order.

Chicago, September 7.- Exporters were good buyers today of future de- liveries of wheat and there was a con- sequent advance in prices. The market closed firm. 1k to 21a cents net higher, with December 2.41 to 241A, and March 2.3S. Corn finished A to 21h cents up, and oats varied from 1 cent decline to F cent gain. Provisions finished at cents lose to a rise of 50 cents.
 The advance in quotations here on future deliveries of wheat took place despite advices telling of an appar- ent absence of export demand at the seaboard and notwithstanding rather liberal receipts.

 New Orleans, September 7.-Advances of ten dollars a bale were made by cotton today, the market rising the full POO points allowed under the rulings limit ing daily fluctuations. on all trading months and closing at the highest. Oc- tober went to 26.76c and March to 22.90c. October bulged the full 200 points fairly early in the day but the later months were not so active, and did not reach maximum limits until the late trading,
 The strength of Liverpool, private re- ports that the outlook for settling the threatened English coal strike was bet CT, contanued rains in the belt and re- ports of somewhat better spot demand were the main factors that stipulated the buying. Confident short sellers of last week bought covers in large vol- ume.
 The weather map reflected considerable moisture in the belt, but private reports told of even more rain and it was evident that precipitation had been heavy in some localities, especially in Texas, from which state there were many complaints of crop deterioration which caused the trade to expect bullish weekly crop re- ports from the government tomorrow,
 Greatest strength came late in the day when the market was affected by the forecast of more rain for the greater part of the belt. buyers looking for an other wet weather map in the morning.
