operation really means, and the nation at large,
which includes both the employers and employees,
is benehtting. Employers are finding that profits
can be made by the manufacture of commodities
in quantities and selling them at lower price just
as well as they can be made through restricted
manufacture and a sale at higher figure.
Employees are learning that by producing COM
modities In sufficient quantities, they enabled
to go into the market and buy these commodities
for their own use at lower price. Word has come
from labor leaders In various parts of the country
that labor is viewing the price decline as being
equal to an increase in pay.
Little nothing is being heard regarding dis
satisfaction. This is particularly true in South
Bend. Workmen here appear to be contented
with their work, and employers seem satisfied
with the work that the employees are doing.
On the whole the country at large seems to be
rapidly returning to pre-war conditions. Along
with the price reductions there appears to be a
more settled feeling everywhere.
Even the uncertainties of the political campaign
through which the country is now going appear to
be having little or no effect upon business or in
dustry in any of their lines.

Price Reductions Which Have Been Forced by Increase
in Production, Felt in Other Parts of the Country Have
Reached South Bend, and More Drops are Promised

There has been something said in these columns
the past two weeks relative to reduction in prices
of commodities and the effect that production has
had in bringing about this price decline.
During the past week there has been further
announcement of a cut in the cost of commodities,
and still more are anticipated. The Studebaker
corporation and other large automobile manufac-
turers have told of reduction In the price of their
cars. The price of food commodities has taken
decided drop, and Thursday an announcement
was made by several South Bend retail stores of
a substantial cut in prices of various articles.
Word reaches here that there has been reduc-
ton in the price of lumber and in some other lines
of building material. The government has sent
out word that the end of the price decline has not
been reached.
Efforts of workers, men and women alike, to
aid the nation in solving its shortage of production
problem is meeting with desired success. The
shortage in commodities caused by the war is dis
appearing, and the recent era of price initiation is
disappearing along with the shortage In commodi-
ties.
Employers and employees are learning what Co.
