is Of interest as concerns a general sur
yey OF conditions in our industry:
Aside from market conditions, many
other factors vitality influence the cement
/ industry. Since the end Of the war trans
| portation facilities have remained made
quate. both for raw materials and for
finished products, and the supply Of coal
| and labor has been short, and when these
conditions prevail during the building
season the result is a shortage OF ce-
ment, which naturally raises the factory
price somewhat and gives opportunity
for dealers to increase greatly the price
to the consumer
The conditions were generally bet
ter in 1920 than in 1912, though most
plants felt cessation % demand and low
cred prices ut the end Of the year The
prevalent handicaps, especially labor
troubles, proved too great for some
plants, which were closed Ur long
periods. About half dozen widely sep
arated plants reported conditions about
the same as in 1919
There we're increases In production
and in the average selling price OF Port
land cement in every state and district
Although there were decreases IN ship
meuts in three districts and IN throe
/ States, ranging from 2 to II per cent.
the gross value Of shipments in all States
and districts increased. The increases
In production ranged from l per cent in
| the Tennessee Alabama Georgia district
to 81 per cent in the State Of Washing
ton.
The lowest average price reported by
any group Of plants In 1920 was SLIT
barrel In the Nllnois-western Indiana
/ district. and the highest average price
was S247 in Washington. These prices
compare with 81 81 and SOS in 1919 In
the same localities.
Il also want 10 call attention to the
fact that, according to the next to last
paragraph In this excerpt the average
price Of Portland cement In 1890 was. as
compared with 1919, 81 90 per barrel 10
SlSJ per barrel. a total OF - per cent.
In comparison with the generous IN
crease in freight commodities necessary
TO the manufacture Of our product, It
seems that this is quite low, and in all
/ Of the United States the increase in mill
price is only 10 per cent during the last
year.
1T would seem that great deal OF
the agitation as to the price Of cement
has been caused mostly by transporta.
ton difficulties and unprecedented de

that they cannot be found to be In the
same proportions as the mill price re-
ceived There is no question but what
conditions last summer and fall were all
unusual and unlocked for, but with the
readjustment Of the dealer and the con
sumer to the conditions prevailing at this
| time and what seems to be & prevailing

| terial and Of supplies. ! cannot see
where there should be further criticism
or controversy. One fact must be re-
membered that has not been mentioned.
that is that there has been an enormous
/ program of hard-surfaced road building
| inaugurated in Ohio, Indiana and Illinois
the last few years, which calls for an
enormous use Of Portland cement and Is
naturally going to affect the other mar
kets for the product"

BRITISH LABOR
SIGNS GEORGES
WARRANT
Arthur Henderson Says Pre-
mier's Party Is Doomed
Forever.
TRAITOR TO OWN CAUSE

LONDON, April Arthur Henderson,
most powerful labor leader in Great
Britain today virtually challenged Pre-
rnier Lloyd George TO a general election
on the issues raised by the threatened
Industrial revolution In the United King
dom.
Known throughout the war as con-
sentative and a conciliator Henderson in
an exclusive interview with the United
Press indicated his one idea now is to
overflow the Lloyd George government.
RADICAL and conservative laborites. he
Ysaid. have been cemented by the crisis
brought on by the great coal strike. a
victory for labor with Lloyd George an
outcast and a Iaborite government based
on social justice will result from the
next election, he declared.
Conteptuously referring to the "in
sincerity, Inconsistency and in con-
stancy''. Of the premier, Henderson de-
elared Lloyd Georges party is falling to
pieces.
SEES BENEFITS
OF ATTACK.
''The labor party will not only survive
Lloyd Georges attacks but will be
strengthened by It," he said. His hyster-
ical attacks are not deceiving any one, not
even himself"
Henderson refused to announce the
complete labor platform but made it clear
that when labor wins" it Will recon
struct society, impoverished and disor-
gained by the long war, on the prin
eiples OF social justice and economic free
dom"
The Premier is q man who feels that
his force Is spent" Henderson asserted.
He has aligned himself irrevocably with
party, privilege and property which he
once assailed with vehemence T tongue
and recklessness Of spirit VIII ! no la
bOrite ever eIcelled."
GEORGE HAS FORsAKEN
PEOPLES CAUSE.
Lloyd George has forsaken the peo-
pies cause"
Profteers and exploiters Of labor viii
have short shift If labor is empowered.
Henderson vitriOHcIy attacked those
two classes.
"They put Lloyd George where he now
stands" he declared. Henderson said that
labor hd saved Lloyd George more than
once politically but that now with a
cynicism unequaIled in the history Of
/. British politics, the premier has in
kurated a campaign OF INSCRIPTIONS
Misrepresentation against the one party
now seeking to realize his own discarded
aims"
More than once he charged, Lloyd
George privately suggested an alliance
and a working partnership with the la
borites whom he now assails"
HAS LOST FOREVER
SUPPORT OF LABOR"
The premier has lost forever the sup
port Of labor. Henderson stated
The labor leader was certain this with
drawal Of support would mean collapse
Of tic Lloyd George government Snd the
coalition party, giving labor its oppor-
tunity TO seize control and institute its
own program SketchiIIy touched upon.

that Irwin Novitzlzy, an electrician of this
city, also has implicated Pope.

Rawlings alleged confession, in written
form, says according to the states at
tosney, that Pope planned the robbery
and waited in an automobile one block
from the theatre while it was being car
ried out. Rawlings was to have escaped
in this car, according to the alleged con-
fession. but when Pope saw a policeman
closely following Rawlings in his flight to-
wards the car, he speeded away. RawI-
ings is quoted as saying that Pope, when
he revealed the plan, explained that it
would be an easy job, pointing out that
Hickman had only recently gotten up
from sick bed. The alleged confession
further quotes Rawlings to the effect that
Pope had disclosed plans of similar rob-
berries to be carried out this winter, the
theatre attempt being the first on the
list.
