American Luckiest Man in the World

TOOD shelter, clothing, and other
necessities and hundreds of com
forts and luxuries now are within
the reach of residents of the United
States at far lower costs than in any
other country in the world. This is
shown for the first time in history in
data collected by the federal reserve
board. America has always been the
land of high wages and high prices.
Wages throughout the United
States, despite wholesale reductions,
still are higher than anywhere else in
the world. Prices of virtually all
commodities at the same time are at
record low levels in this country COM
pared with European nations.
The general level of wholesale
prices throughout the United States is
approximately Al per cent above the
level of the prewar period. But in
other countries wholesale levels, ac-
cDrding to the reports to the federal
reserve board, are: Italy, 400 per
cent above the prewar period; United
Kingdom, 100; France 232; Germany,
1,467; Sweden, III; Denmark, 1913;
Japan, 96; Australia, 60; Canada, rs;
India, SO.
Residents of the United States thus
are obtaining all the comforts of life
and many of the luxuries at prices

Federal Control of Civil Aeronautics

Herbert Hoover by the Manufacturers

cial planes in operation flew a total
of 3,250,00O miles in the first six
months of 1921. But during this
period there were 40 serious acct
dents, resulting in death to IA per-
sons and injury to 50. Practically
all of the fatalities and most of the
injuries might have been prevented
through proper regulation.
The bill provides for commission

the President, operating under the
secretary of commerce. The commits
sioner's duty shall be to inspect the
design and construction, and, if ap-
proved. to licey.s the operation OF

routes, encouraging the establishment
of landing fields and air stations, by
operating weather stations in conJunc-
ton with other bureaus, creating COM

and by collecting and disseminating
information concerning aviation here
and abroad; TO encourage and under
take research and cooperate with 9TH
er institutions in that work; to OPP
crate such air services as the Depart
ment of Commerce may see fit.
