American Lumberman
Reviews Lumber Market

Encouraging reports continue to
come in from all sections Of the
country relative to the increase in
home building, says the American
Lumberman of Chicago. In practi-
cally every section of the country ne
gotiations are under way whereby it
is sought to reduce the wages of
building labor from the peak. Gen
orally, where reductions have been
made, building is largely stimulated
and it would seem that in two or three
weeks the building labor situation
should be well adjusted in practically
all parts of the country.
Production of lumber continues
upon a restricted basis and while or
ders placed are not up to normal,
nevertheless they exceed actual pro
dtction, taking the country as q
whole. Shipments are coming for
ward promptly and mills are taking
care Of. rash orders, in good shape.
The demand is such that the, volume
of grades suitable for building
shipped exceeds the volume produced
and consequently it is becoming diff
f.cult to place some orders which are
badly mixed or which call for items in
the most demand. This condition is
particularly noticeable in the South
ern pine territory and as a conse-
quence Eastern buyers are turning
to the purchase of Douglar fir in
spite Of the very high freights which
most be paid to get in into Central
Western markets.
In the matter of prices there has
been some tendency to firm upthose
for the lower grades, particularly in
Southern pine Here and there may
be noted trend to reduce the prices
of the better grades and this is due
not so much to lack of demand as to
readjustment of the spread in
values between the different grades.
In normal times a wool suit is worth
so much more than cotton suit and
thus the best grade of lumber is worth
so much more than a lower grade
when conditions are normal When
the heavy demand for lumber arrived,
however, the natural spread in price
between grades was disrupted by the
fact that certain grades were in much
greater demand than others and as a
prices for the grades
most in demand mounted much faster
than those for the other grades. The
natural spread in prices is now in
process of adjustment, a fact which
must be taken into consideration in
any study of present market condi-
tiOns,

TRUMPET ISLAND"
AT GARDEN MONDAY

Trumpet Island" is the biggest
picture in the history of Vitagraph.
It has been. pronounced BY many as
the greatest film ever made. 1t is a
special production in every way
Nothing that could possibly add to
the impressiveness of the spectacular
drama and its compelling interest to
motion picture patrons has been neg
lected, no matter what the cost in
money, time and intelligently directed
energy. In spectacular features it is
unsurpassed.
The great sensational feature
showing the wrecking of an airplane
bearing a bride and groom through a
terrific electric storm and the crash
of the shattered machine into a tree
on a lonely island is daring beyond
anything attempted in the field Of
motion pictures in the past. The
realism is flawless and the effect ire
mendous.
1t is Tom Terriss production,
which alone is significant of big
things in film making. This director
is reputed for his beautiful scenic ef-
fects, the pep and vim he gets into his
players and rapid action. His work
shows art, polish and achievement.
He goes after effects that other d.
rcctors have never attempted be-
cause Of insurmountable difficulties
and he always produces the desired
results. Dignity, magnitude, splen-
dor and intense emotional acting
stamp the handiwork of Tom Terriss.
Trumpet Island" is a thrilling
story of love and adventure, fash
toned after the best style Of Gouver-
neur Morris, from one Of whose mar
ratives this elaborate perturbation
was made by Lillian and George Ran
dolph Chester, themselves writers of
international reputation. Several
were spent on the adaptation.
Tom Terriss, the director, spent three
months in California directing the
Of this special, the cost of
which passed the quarter of a mil
lion mark. There is an all-star cast,
the members of which made unusual
sacrifices of comfort and personal
safety to add impressiveness to the
great special production. Great care
was exercised in selecting the cast.
Hundreds of extra players appear in
mammoth and palatial sets in which
wild midnight orgies of millionaires
are shown. It is probably as rich in
spectacular value as any production
ever transferred to film.
This great super-feature will APP
pear at the Garden Theater Monday,
April 18th. No advance in prices.

Help for Disabled
Soldiers

Frequent charges that thousands, of
sick or disabled ex-service men are
being inadequately cared for by the
government had their effect on con.
gress. The senate adopted an amend
ment to the sundry civil bill appro-
priating S12,5OO,OOO for five new build
ings and 100000 for the enlarge
ment and improvement of existing
hospitals, The house, by unanimous
vote, passed bill carrying an ap-
preparation for $13,000,000 for addi-
tional hospitals and enlarged facilities.
Under this bill five new hospitals are
to be located-one in the central At
lantic states, one in the region of the
Great Lakes, one in the central south
western states, one in the Rocky
mountain states and one in southern
California. In addition, the secretary
of war is instructed to take over at
once and equip for hospital use Fort
Mackenzie, Wyoming, and Fort Wana
Walla, Washington.

Navy Equipment
TO Continue

Inspired by the conviction that the
United States should have a navy as
strong as that of any other nation,
the senate naval affairs committee re-
ported against the Borlh resolution
for a six months naval construction
holiday The report, presented by
Senator PoindeXter, said the commit
tee was as anxious as possible to
bring about a reduction of armaments,
b t that no disarmament would he of
VI lue unless it were general and, in
the case of>the great maritime powers,
universal. "Unhappily this is not the
case at the present time" continued
the report, 'and we must deal with
conditions as they exist. For one
nation to leave itself exposed to at
tack While another is preparing all
the engines of war would be not only
folly, but the greatest danger to the
peace of the world that could be mag
ined."
A temporary suspension of building,
it was pointed out, would cost the gov
eminent immense sums through de-
terioration of material and disloca-
ton OF contracts; would throw large
numbers of Workmen out of employ
ment, and, by rendering it difficult or
impossible to reassamble these forces
should work on vessels be resumed,
would give an immense advantage to
powers that had not interrupted the
construction of their fleets.
The committee upheld the conten-
ton of the navy board that the capital
ship is not obsolete. 1t recommended
that twelve destroyers and six sub
marines, authorized in 1916 but not
vet co tracted for, he eliminated from
the building program. These is ships
were expected to cost the government
about ;55,O00,000. The committee sug-
gested the use of this amount for the
constr elton of two airplane carriers
of the most modern type and of the
most advantageous size.

Western Union
Telegraph Match Box

LAMBERTVILLE-Have you seen
the cartoon of Barney Google where
he became tipsy and tried to get a
room in a hotel? Well, he asked
for a small room. 1t was late at
night and no bellboy was around. So
the clerk gave Barney the key and
told him, the last door on the right
down the hall.
Directly Barney came back and said
it was a small room alright, but there
was no bed in it. When the clerk went
with him he found that he had tried
to go to bed in telephone booth.
1t is good companion situation to
the, situation of the Western Union
Telegraph station here. 1t isn't even
as big as telephone booth You can
open the door of telephone booth and
walk in. But you have to turn side
ways and draw in your chest Cor
stomach in order to get into their
booth"
We had always thought that the
Western Union was the last word in
telegraphy. But we've changed our
minds. The Postal has a presentable
office in which they do business.
There are an average of five hun
dred messages sent and received
weekly at the Western Union office.
But the accommodations they provide
for it would make horse taught The
operator has to look twice before ever
touching the keys for fear of knock
ing over a bottle of hair tonic or a
pair of curling irons.
There has been better service since
TIE new operator has been in charge.
Mr.. a1amal.a mad suffered III nea,.tn
tor some CIIle and could not avNa.
be CT duty. Ana there Is no seasyn
why the office should no. b. placed
on a respectable basis. True, the mes
sages sent are not as numerous as
those received. But when the paying
basis of a station is estimated, it
should be remembered that messages
could not be received without an oper-
ator, and it is foolish to say the mes
sages sent do not warrant a good
office.
But in this case, as in many others,
the Western Union seems to think
that anything is good enough for
Lambertville. We resent it. The oper-
ator resents it. The druggist who
rents them space resents it. But in
the meantime patrons of the telegraph
must wade thru children consuming
ice cream sodas and mix and mingle
with the bottles and jars in order to
get message sent away

This acceptance being satisfactory.

Premier BRAND has obtained from
the French chamber of DEPUTIES the
support he required before going to
the London conference. The chamber
voted 395 to SO to approve the repara-
tons terms framed by the supreme
council, and then gave a vote of CON
fdence in BRAND, 3S7 to 125. The op-
position was led by members of the
former Clemenceau cabinet. The pre-
mier closed the debate with the state
ment: 1.-THE fate of Germany lies in
her own hands. Should she. after
May 1, 1921, refuse to fulfill her
pledges the French government can be
relied upon to take all measures to
make her"
The Hansa league. the great eco
nomic association of Germany, says
many of its members urge a boycott
of French and English goods in favor
of goods from America, and adds that
the directors of the league may adopt
the suggestion if Great Britain con-
tinues to support France in the repa-
rations claims.
