LIVING CONDITIONS HERE.

Mover are not SO 3usy that it is hard tu obtain their services. IL is found that they. like many others. are seeking work.
 Hut from this there should be de- duced m feeling that unemployment is increasing. The situation mad little to do with this phase of today's con ditions except possibly indirectly.
 Quito naturally the less moving from one house to another thcre is. the more men whose bus ness if Is to do thls work are compelled to go after it." The compa rative quite in this line of work is taken merely as un indication of certain things.
 In the first place it shows that the housing situation has not bettercd to an appreciable degree. The moment thero are many fats or houses to rent. that moment people begin to make long wished for changes. Then the movers are busy. Although if is somc- what easier to find place in which to live in this city than it was a year ago. the change has not been great. From this fact may he sdeduced either expense of moving: or that they realize the so-caIlcd ard-times'' are but temporary and there will he no necessity of giving up the hou'e they havc and taking less expensive quarters if such are to he found. It .,I. ing more expensive homes for this very reason.
 The comparatively slack times for movers must mean also that there are not many families leaving this city. There Is still the unemployment problem here. but far-sccing men be- licve that h will pass: they realize that 1t has hit other parts of tho country more than il has harmed the people in New Britain. and. they are willing to stay where they are until their theories are shown to be correct or incorrect.
 Naturally the converse is true There are not so many families nov Ing into New Britain as formerly. It may be believed. however. that this is tho result of greater scarcity or money for moving purposes in other cities than there is here. This deduc- tion Is bound to he true if we grant that We have suffered less than other localities from unemployment
 As the advertisements of Help Wanted" nnd 'sgituafioY,. Napt,a., i-, dicato the state of employment. so may there be found fin the compara- lively smaller amount of work or movers an evidence Of faith on the part of the people in the immediate future of New Britain.

astcr. In other words it would create situation in this state, as in every other. that would not rebound to the welfare of all.
 Twenty years ago the comparative numbers of males and females in the state would be the subject of merely academic discussion. perhaps. but it would never assume practical sig nifiCarce as it does today.
 Twenty years ago women made no such demands as they are making now. And he it said that the women of this state though having among them some of the brightest women of the country. are far more sane in their demands; have. a far more conserva- tive ritav' of alters in general than obtains throughout many of the other states. Perhaps there is no other statc in which the women were more reluctant to take the duty upon them selves imposed by men legislators of other st tatcs. involved in the suffrage.
 But having been given the vote il k thou t.". women are handling the situation as sanely as their sisters in any of the other states in the Union.
 We have realized haziIy the power of the women now that they have the vote. When We learn that there are almost as many of that sex living here: when the figures arc given us. we are struck at once with the possi- bilitics of the situation-for good in this state rather more than in any other we dare to boast
 And those. who have followed the course the women have taken in poIi- tics. though poasibiy sorry thal that part was force'l upon those who feel reluctantly that they mi,>- .'h"ir duly. have seen already their innu- ence at work.
 And it is devoutly to he hoped that thcIr course will continue to he one of wisdom for all and not on, govern ed by hc/fact alone that they are women.

TRADE BATTERED
 BY STABLE DOLLAR
Americans Should Work for
 Consistent Exchange Rates

New York, May 1S.-In order to hold and increase its South American trade the United States should work to stabilize the rates of exchange and to interest capital in South American de- velopment enterprise, the world trade conference of the National Association Of Manufacturers was told today by Ambassador Pezet of Peru and Dr. Santos A. Dominici, minister from Venezuela.
 Continued instability of foreign ex- change is likely to cost the United States a considerable portion of it's South American trade, Ambassador PeZct declared.
 ''Itx is to the interest of the United States to sec that exchange is stabilized because if the dollar continues to soar the republics of South America will be forced to increase their trade with European and Asiatic countries,'' he said.
 An appeal for American interests to invest their money in Venezuela was made by pr. Dominici.
 ''There is money to be made in Venezuela he said. Your interest to make this money and our interest to de- velop our country go hand in hand. Both gain and the world gains.''
 pr. Slavko Gouitch, minister of the Serbs. Croats and Slovenese, said his people would welcome goods from the United States. Most of the goods inn ported into the countries before the war came from Germany and Austria, he said, but the people would welcome by preference other sources of supply.

 Hupmobile is down in price, notice. The five-passenger car is now S14S5 instead of $1685, f. o. b., Detroit (war tax to be added)-a reduction of S2OO!
 Compare the Hupmobile price with that of other cars in its class. In 1918 this car cost $135O; in 1919, S145O; in 1920, $16S5; today $14S5 the same model 'R", fiye-pas- senger car, f. o. b., Detroit.) >.
 Compared with the Hupmobile, other cars in it's class were $50 lower in 1920. Today the other cars have raised the price by more than .S225, whereas the Hupmo- bile has dropped in price by $2OO.
 Today the Hupmobile five-pas- senger car has increased in value, though it's cost is lower. Look at its new features-the mOtometer, s the windshield cleaner, outside door handles and the plate glass window in the back curtain--all at the lower price! ".
 You can now buy the five-pas- senger Hupmobile (model 'R'') with freight and war tax paid, and cord tire equipment, deliv- cred to you here for S166O.
 With it's we'll known economy, LOW TcpdlI COSCS, AONS HAC dltu high resale value, the Hupmobile at it's new price, today, stands out as the best purchase in the motor car market.

The minister said the question to be
decided was who was the first to
shoot, but judging from the results of
the investigation so far it appeared
probable the japanese sentry took
the initiative. If this was so. he con-
tinued. the only factor remaining un-
decided was whether the sentry was
subjected to such serious menace as
to justify his action. The hour at
which the American officer appeared,
armed with a pocket lamp, might
have. multiplied the possibilities of
misunderstanding, the minister de-
clared, and it was to throw light on
these circumstances that the investi-
cation was being continued.
