Freight Rates Hold Up
Building, Says Dealer
Lumber Prices Are Reported
as Being Reduced to
Pre-War Basis

Wholesale prices Of lumber have
reached bottom, but builders are UNI
able to take advantage of them because
of high freight rates, according to w.
w. Schupner, secretary Of the National
Wholesale Lumber Dealers Associa-
ton, in letter sent yesterday to the
National Federation of Construction
Industries.
In reply to a question from the con-
struction industries, Mr.. Schupner
wrote: "The consensus Of opinion is
that wholesale lumber prices have been
fully Debated and that with some posi-
BILE exceptions covering a few varieties
and grades, governed by local circum-
stances, these prices have reached bot
tom. They are based on a cost Of man.
ufacture which takes into considera-
ton heavy reductions in the cost of
labor, especially in the South where
common labor has been reduced to pre-
war wage levels.
"1n the lumber industry it has been
possible to reduce labor costs very rap
idly, and, in spite of the fact that pro-
ductlon costs are on minimum basis,
the downward price trend has brought
mill prices on numerous items lower
than in 1913, and some are below pres
ent replacement cost levels. Many mills
have completely shut down because
they cannot probably sell their out
puts at present wholesale prices.
irrespective builders must not over
look the fact that even though all
Wholesale lumber prices at the mills
were at their pre-war levels the exist
ing higher freight rates would result
in correspondingly higher selling
price at consuming centerS."

PARIS, July 81 (By The Associated

instructed Baron de Cartier de Mar
chienne, Belgian Ambassador to the
United States, to present strongly the
reasons why Belgium should partici-
pate in the conference on disarmament
in Washington. according to Henri
Puttmans, correspondent in Brussels
of the Echo de Paris, TO day.
NJ. Puttmans declares that the Bel
gian sensibilities have been somewhat
hurt by President Harding's phrase in
his call for the conference-"th prin
cipal Allied and associated powers
which the Belgians consider re luces
Belgium to lower rank than that
which the correspondent says Belgium
feels it has attained by its part in the
war;
Belgian interests in the Far East
are described as being Of real impor-
lance. notably the Kai-Ping mines to
the northeast of Tien-Tsin, the rail
ways in China and also numerous Bel
gian National Bank enterprises.
The Belgian government considers
its national dignity involved, NJ. Putt
mans asserts, especially if Holland is
invited to attend the conference. The
Belgians consider also that the ques-
ton Of disarmament vitality concerns
them, as they now are part Of the bloc
OF Western powers.

America-Jannn Rivalry

LONDON, July 81 (By The Associ
atcd Press. Premier Hughes said in
his address to-day that Australia and
New Zealand must be represented at
the Pacific conference. The principal
fact to be considered, he said, was that
any policy Of isolation was impossible.
Australians 12,000-milc relnoteness,
he continued, did not save her from
participation in the World War any
more than Americas doctrine saved the
Americans from participation Presi-
dent Harding's invitation seemed a
realization OF this fact, Mr.. Hughes
said, and indicated the intention of the
United States to enter its proper place
in world affairs
The danger in the Pacific, he de
clared, lies in the naval rivalry be-
tween Japan and the United States, in
which he asserted Great Britain, with
her vital interests, must enter unless
an agreement is reached which recog
nizes the American and Australian des-
tiny in the Pacific, as well as Japan's
special interests there.
Tho Australian Premier was intro
ducod by Wilson Cross, president of
the American Luncheon Club, as "the
great voice Of the white democracy of
the Pacific"

Disagreement on Terms
" on't Break Irish Truce

DUBLIN. July 81 (By The Associated
Press).-Although Mr.. De Valera has
been unable to accept the terms of the
British settlement, there is no imme-
date apprehension of rupture of the
truce. 1t was recognized from the be-
ginning that Mr.. De Valera, as the
spokesman Of the republican idea,
could not waive that principle, and the
most that was hoped was that he might
receive an offer worthy Of considera-
ticr and debate
But only really big offer, it is de-
clared, would Justify the assembly of
the Dali Eiraenn, and such disappoint-
ment as exists is caused by The rumo1
here that the Dali Eiraenn may not be
summoned.
If it is decided to reject the terms
without consulting the Republican
Parliament officially Mr.. De Valera is
expected to issue Immediately state
ment to the Irish people. On good
authority it may be stated that the
financial terms of the British offer
broke new ground and apparently are
designed to induce Belfast to recon
slider its attitude toward a united Ire
land.

Their sister responded to the 0 5,
and the family is now waiting inter

use the money for return fare or for
the purpose of continuing their argosy
The young men have never worked

mechanics and automobiles. They re-
