CHICAGO, Tan. 12.-Motor car
manufacturers are preparing for g
big years business and this is be-
ing reflected in the activity in steel
mills Of this district. In many mills,
production has advances to fifty per
cent. Plants in south Chicago clos.
ed during the holiuoy are produc.
ing at an increased rate and other
plants will resume before February
1. Railroads are preparing car or
ders and this factor will also tend
to increase steel demand. The Hi.
nois Central will place orders for
1000 cars soon and the Burlington
and Union Pacific programs provide
for expenditure Of ten million dol
lars each.
The retail shoe dealers now in con-
vention here declare that a fourth

but the delegates are optimistic for
1922 and are aggressive in determi-

cost Of doing business in shoes last
year was 26 per cent of the net sales,
they report. This is about the same
as it has been for two years past.
Prices of shoes are fairly stable
and orders for spring delivery are
good.
Another packing plant has made
an annual report showing a deficit
for 1921. Automobile men agree
with the economists that there is no
such thing as surplus except at

foreign commerce of this port in
creased twelve per cent last year,
in spite Of unfavorab1e shipping con-
ditions and showed a gain of sixty
per cent over the totals Of 1919.
The importations Of coffee and oil

America were largely responsible
for the gain. The activity in ship
ping has been large factor in main
tanning stable commercial and labor

Retailers here have reduced prices
in many cases and have met with
a ready response from the public.
Sales are running only slightly be-
hind the totals Of the best month

Mild weather, however, has result
ed in a slackening of demand for
clothing. Purchases for spring by
retailers have been conservative and
there is a marked Discrimination to
carry heavy stocks.
Wholesalers and jobbers in some

are going in" but an hour after the
scheduled zero hour the highway
forces were watchfully waiting.

That was all he would say. Whalen
was down at his barricade fence cree

He didn't have gun. Mr.. Whalen
hasn't had a shotgun in his hand
since this thing started said his
wife who did most of the talking.
'''But they are not going to put any

Whalen interfering with the construc-

a new road through his farm was

idea of the proper authority is a

department has refused to pay be-
cause they believe the sum too great.

ON INTERSTATE COMMERCE

According to estimates given out by
the American Federation Of Labor at
that time there were between 5000 600
and 6,000.000 wage-earners out OF en-
ployment when the Republican adj
ministration came into power March
A, 1921. This Industrial depression
began early in the summer Of 1920.
The immediate problem before the Re
publican party was the return to nor
NAL conditions.
The underlying cause of industrial
depression was the prostration Of agri.
culture brought about by the radical
curtailment of agricultural credits by
the Democratic administration. The
American farmer buys 40 per cent. of
all manufactured products. His des-
perate circumstances compelled indus
tries to cnrtail production and turn
men into the streets. The Republican
Congress Immediately restored agri-
culture to a healthy condition. The
farmer entered the market again as a
buyer of manufactured goods. The
ranks Of the unemployed began to
decrease. 81 .jss-{ Z. = Es - .s
At the time the coal and railroad
strikes were called there was a great
er demand for laboring men than there
was supply.
One of the most important contribut.
ing factors to the improvement OF the
J unemployment situation was the early
enactment by the special session OF
the Republican Congress of the re
strictive immigration law. This was
demanded by the laboring people OF
the United States. It's enactment pre-.
vented the incoming Of hundreds OF
thousands of immigrants who would
only have increased the ranks of the
unemployed and added to the indus
trial distress. The previous Republi.
can Congress had passed a similar law
but it was. vetoed by President Wilson
The Republican administration came
into power finding the burden of taxes
very heavy. The working man had to
bear his share. Il was essential to

ceives an annual income of $4,000 OF
less. In addition, his exemption foi
children and dependents was doubled
from 5000 to s4OO. These exemptions
embrace practically all those on E

circumstances, In addition, the new
tax law repealed altogether !. tho
nuisance" taxes which working men
had to pay on everything everywhere
for everything they bought. 1t also
repealed all transportation taxes
which were levied on all goods shipped
by freight or. express or parcel post
Such taxes were added to the ultimate
cost of goods and, in the long run
were paid by the. working men. Az
told, the new tax bill lifted from til,
shoulders of the working classes OF
this country over $500 10000 year,

7fI3EsI q 9-99-l- :. I'd n So
Never Liked Early Rising.

In a recently published biography OF
William Ewart Gladstone and Mrs.
Gladstone by their daughter, Mrs.
Mary Drew, she relates that until past
eighty, they from a sense of duty rose
early every morning and !. attended
church service before breakfast, not
varying their custom no matter what
the, weather might be. But this prac-
tice did not make them like early ris-
ing. Both of them always hated to get
up early and years did not cure them.
Mr.. Gladstone once owned that the
struggle never grew less and that It
was as hard to get out Of bed for the
morning service every day after he was
seventy as when he was half that age.
