IMPORTANT!

Many men are now accepting work on build
ing jobs in an independent capacity 1t is i'm
portant that these men, and those who employ
them, should know that the State of Indiana has
very drastic and just laws, requiring an owner
or contractor to take out Compensation Insur-
ance Where an owner employs a workman,
union or non-union, for any kind of work
around his premises, if said workman is injured
during such employment, the owner is subject
to the compensation payments set out by the
law. Should serious accident occur, it hight
work very serious hardship on the owner
Builders should guard against such a contin-
gency by requiring the workman TO produce
certificate from the State, showing that the con-
tractor has taken out insurance as required by
Eaw.
The Lake County times. [volume] (Hammond, Ind.) 1906-1933, 1921-05-14

If building costs do not come
down, all building must stop. The
uadesman, who is not willing to bear
his share of the dehahon will be forced to continue
out of employment. because there will be no demand
for his services.
1T WAS BECAUSE OF THESE CONDITIONS
AND PARTICULARLY BECAUSE CONTRACTORS
BELIEVE THAT THE INTERESTS OF THE CON-
TRACTOR AND THE EMPLOYE ARE MUTUAL
THAT THE BUILDING CONTRACTORS HAVE AT
TEMPTED TO BRING ABOUT A CONDITION WHICH
WOULD KEEP THE TRADESMEN IN STEADY EN-
PLOYMENT AT A FAIR RATE OF WAGE
These contractors have volun-
tarily reduced their own profits. Many
of them have been operating at an actual loss-for
the sole purpose Of keeping their organizations intact
But sacrifice Of the contractors
normal profit alone cannot bring
building costs down to the point that will satisfy the
public.
Neither can the decrease in the
cost Of building materials permit
sufficient cut in building costs to stimulate the In
dustry.

LABOR REPRESENTS THE LARGEST SINGLE
ITEM OF COST ENTERING INTO BUILDING FULLY
5000 OF THE COST OF ERECTING A BUILDING
AFTER THE MATERIAL HAS BEEN DELIVERED
ON THE GROUND IS THE LABOR COST
UNLESS THIS LABOR COST is REDUCED,
THE COST OF ERECTING A BUILDING MUST
REMAIN so HIGH AS TO BE PROEIBITTVE IN ALL
BUT THE MOST NECESSARY CASES
In Baltimore, Maryland, tn e
Labor Unions have accepted vol
untary wage reduction Of from 10
per cent to 20 per cent. AS result many millions
of dollars worth of construction are now under
way. and the members of the building trades of that
city are at work at wages that permit them to have
all the advantages they enjoyed when wartime wages
prevailed.
1t was to bring about a similar
revival of building, with the conse-
quent employment of an increased

There is No Lockout Only Reduction in Wages
Which Better for the Worman-A High Wage and No Work
Fair Wage and Steady Employment?

@ @ Vs. S@44$@
There in a nutshell is the one
question to be asked concerning the
cessation which is now In operation
in all branches of the building industry in this
region. If the union worker. who is now contending
for continuation of wartime wages. will answer
the question ruhfuly. the cessation will end without
more ado
But before he can answer that
question, the work m must be
placed In the full possession Of facts.
We do not believe that the average worker really
knows the situation as it exists today We say this
because we realize that the American workingman
is at heart honest He wants all that is
ing him. it is true but he never knowingly violates
the dictates of common sense as they affect funda-
mental economic conditions. So we. the Building
Contractors Of the Calumet Region. are using this
newspaper space to acquaint both the public at
large and the tradesmen with all the facts in the case
In the first place, there is terrible
shortage of houses-not only in Ham
mond, but all over the United States.
According to reliable information. this shortage in
Hammond alone amounts to $500 homes.
This condition means that those
who. through force of circumstances,
are forced to seek new dwellings,
must bid against each other. Landlords have been
able to extort higher and higher rents. TODAY, THE
VERY WAGE-EARNERS WHO ARE HELPING TO
PERPETUATE THIS SHORTAGE OF HOUSES ARE
PAYING AN ENORMOUS TOLL IN INCREASED
RENTALS.
IF it were possible to build the
$500 additional homes now needed
In Hammond, rents would tumble
Immediately. and the whole community. including
the building trades workers. would benefit
Yet, so long as building costs re-
main as disproportionately high as
they at present. there will be but the scantiest
amount of building operations.
In the last year or two. thousands
of prospective builders of houses,
fats and apartments have been forced to postpone
their operations because of their abnormalIy high
costs
Bankers have refused to loan
more than 40 per cent Of building
costs, because they know that costs
must come down some time in the future and that
large proportion of the present costs of putting up
building would be lost to the investor because of
consequent shrinkage of values.
All of these conditions have pre-
vented building operations In any
thing like normal volume. AND
AS OTHER COSTS DECREASE. THE COST OF
BUILDING GETS MORE AND MORE OUT OF LINE,
so that even less building forecast for the future
than the very limited amount that has been under
taken in the immediate past

SALES DAYS ARE SUCCESSFUL
Newport and Standpoint Business Men
Pleased With Special Sales.

For several months past the mer-
chants of Newport and Standpoint and
many other towns of the Inland EN-
pire, have been boosting special sales
days once a month and from. all re-
ports these sales have been most sue
essful, have resulted in increased sales
to the merchants and in actual money
saving bargains for their patrons. The
Standpoint Review, of last Friday, pub
lished the following regarding the sue
cess of the last sales day:
"Sandpoint's fourth community bar
gain day was a repetition of the sue
cess of its predecessors, although the
volume of business did not quite match
that of the last preceding sales day
There was as large a crowd in town
however, as before and the stores did
a continuous business throughout the
day with no rushes at any particular
hours.
Zone of the promising features of
the event was the free auction service
at the farm market lot on Cedar street
and Fifth avenue, where large crowd
held forth a great part ofthe afternoon
and much goods changed hands. The
leading sales were a Jersey COW that
sold for $50 and a disc that went for
SIS. The sales ran the scale from 80
cents to the high figure noted above
Very little remained unsold of the
stuff brought in. l. Causton of Bon
ners Ferry was the auctioneer and
Clinton Twiss was the clerk Of the
sale"

EXTENSION SERVICE TO MOSCOW
Board of Education Plans to Change.
Is Boise RumOr.

1t is understood at Boise that the
board of education is planning to move
the extension department headquart-
ers of the University of Idaho from
Boise to Moscow and that all but four
of the department heads will be taken
to Moscow. Two reasons are given for
this. One is that while the extension
service headquarters is in the capitol
building the workers are subject to too
much political annoyance, the party
in power" always insisting that the
members of the extension staff Zine
up with the political party in power
in this state, while the university and
all its branches are supposed to be
non-partisan and non-political An
other reason for the proposed change
is that it will centralize the extension
work at the university, which is re-
garded as its proper place. Well de-
fined rumors have it that all depart
ments and heads of departments will
be moved to Moscow excepting E. F.
Rinehart, animal husbandman, who is
also in charge of the sub-station at
Caldwell; l.. w. Fluharty, head of the
extension service; f. r. Cammack,
field dairyman; and W. B. Kjosness,
state leader of county agents.
