CIVIL WAR REIMBURSEMENT WAS
Many Years In ProcessA-Priccs Now
Only 45 Per Cent Above Normal.

Washington, July 19.-Post-war
price readjustment, which has been
in process throughout the United
States since 1920, is being accom-
plished more successfully and more
quickly than the readjustments that
followed other great conflicts in
Which this nation engaged, 1t is in
0icated In study Of price levels now
available ate the Department Of La
Dor.
Consumers of all sections are en-
joying wholesale prices at level ap-
proximately 45 per cent above the
period Immediately preceding the
World War.
Following the Civil War price re-
adjustments were much slower. The
readjustment period required thirty
years, and prices fell gradually until
1895.
In approximately two years, the
present generation Of business mon
have succeeded in reducing the level
of wholesale prices from the highest
point in history to within hailing
distance Of the level Of 1915. In
that year the Wholesale price level
was "A Per cent in excess Of the level
of 1895. In the next five years the
level scared to a point 2S4 per cent
in excess Of 1895. At no time in the
history Of the United States were
prices ever SO high.
At the close Of the Civil War the
price level was III per cent above
The low price point which was reach
ed when readjustments became COM
plete in 1895.
The price level Of the World War
period was nearly twice as high as
tho peak which was reached during
the Civil War, yet readjustment is
now Eearly complete, it is believed.
During the last few months prices
show q slight upward tendency, in
dicsting that perhaps sterilization
has boen effected and left behind.
Not all business mon arc yet ready
to agree with this view. They point
out that while prices. of some mater
ials are approximately the same as
before the war, the level Of other
commodities and materials is still
very high. The contention is that
prices Of different commodities and
materials are not yet in line with
each >other, although the average is
far lower than in 1920.
Raw materials generally are down
10 pre-war prices. Finished products
have not yet touched prc-war stand
ards, as result, probably, Of the
failure.'of labor costs to fall into
line.
In comparison with the readjust-
ment period Of other countries the
United States Is far in the lead, the
official reports indicate. In England,
France and italy consumers are pay
ing prices that are not far removed
as yet from those Of 1919 and 1920.
AS a result Of more nearly COM
nlete readjustment the United States
is in a position to compete on ex-
tremely advantageous terms with the
other great exporting nations for
world trade.
