velopments affecting in a conspicu-
Gus manner the records of the repre-
sentative industrial and commercial
organizations OF the country.
The most important barometers of
business are pointing to fair weather
ahead, with sufficient daily accom-
plishments, to warrant a safe pre-
diction along the lines indicated.
Several of the statistical exhibits Of
the week, as pointed out by the pub
lished records of leading mercantile
agencies are significant of the cur
rent business recovery. These in.
clude the record of steel output and
of untitled tonnage which have al
ways been accepted as a gauge of
general business progress, as we'll as
the current returns of car loadings,
which indicate a gratifying falling
off in idle freight cars, despite the
handicap Of the heavy decrease in
coal traffic.
Price changes during the past
week have been significant, espe-
cially when we consider the spec
these advances have been advertised
through the public press and else
where. The most conspicuous
changes have been In oil and gaso-
line, one prominent company advanc-
ing gas three times in the current
week.
Dun's list OF wholesale prices this
week showed seventy-six advances
and twenty-four declines. Brad.
streets reports twenty-five advances,
fourteen declines, and forty-two
unchanged. The higher prices for
agricultural commodities has, to a
large extent. added to the purchas-
ing power of the farmers and this
has been reflected in a general de-
pletion Of the stock of goods carried
on the shelyes of the retail estab-
lishments throughout the country.
1dleness AMONG workers, caused by
strikes in the mining and textile
districts, has reacted unfavorably
upon business in the sections most
seriously affected; but even there
the pinch Of necessity has not yet
been felt. General Improvement in
business, which 1t is hoped will
ripen into a full-fledged boom in the
fall. is reported from most of the
representatives mercantile centers.

unexpected merger Of the Lacka-!

market in the latter part or the
week, but It IN safe to say that the
sensational advertising which the
speculative market received as re-
suit Of this development was q most
important factor in attracting a fol-
lowing that had, temporarily at
least, suspended its activities In
stock market speculation.
A general decline in prices, which
had it's beginning almost immediate.

tainable, the reason being ascribed
to perfect taking by the longs and
to shorts selling by the professional
bears. Substantiating this theory,
a canvass Of the leading brokerage
houses revealed the fact that the
short interest OF their customers
had been very heavily extended
When the steel merger STORY
reached the Street about ten minutes
before the market closed on Thurs
day, the scramble for steel stocks
turned the tide Of sentiment to such
an extent that those who were short
of the market thought II to their
advantage to cover as quickly a.
possible, and this covering movement
was to a large extent responsible for
the recovery that featured the two
final days of the week.

the steel shares. Pool operations
were quiet clearly evident in SONS
of the industrials and specialties,

stocks, were boosted 70 higher levels
while others were depressed. either
for profit-taking or a shake out"
The point is now being raised as
to whether gigantic railroad
merger, or series of mergers, will
be the next factor to cause a sen
sation in the speculative markets
and with a consequent skyrocketing
Of the comparatively quiescent rail
road shares. The way to such q
proceeding was paved by the trans

These facts would have no place
in a business article II they did not

gest business in the United States.
A year or two ago IL was common
report that the United States needed
1850, 900 new houses. Todays esti-
mate is 1,000, 900. That means. at a
conservative guess, $4,000, ,000, 900 or
more of new construction work.
Why isn't this work undertaken!
Because the American families that
need the houses haven't the money
to buy them or to pay the rents made
necessary by what It would cost to
erect them. The practical situation
is something like this
The Young Couple.
A young Chicago couple with two
children wish to own a home. They
are told they can build comfortable
house for 5000. Although he earns
but $50 a week and has only s3,cG0 In
bank, the husband decides to buil6.
His limit for the investment is
$4,000. City land he finds too ex-
pensive. He goes from suburb to
suburb and finally gets a building
plot for 1880. He goes from archi.
tect to architect, contractor to con-
tractor, and the lowest estimate he
can get on a medium-siZed home is
$14, 900. For him. the sum In hope
less. He sells the lot and takes his
wife to live in a fiat at S75 1 month,
spending in rent nearly "a third of his
earnings, instead OF the fifth or sixth
which once was suppressed TO be the
businesslike allowance for rent.
or course, the requirements OF the
young couple are rather exacting.
But the writer could cite a dozen
cases like theirs. The cost of build
ing and the cpst OF renting, in
actual daily life, are terrific for the
home builders. And this, despite all
the reports Of increased building ac-
tivity and falling prices.
Cement and Lumber High.
Why? Cement and lumber and
brick and other materials are much
cheaper than they were in 1920: the
charts say so. Yes, but they still
cost twice as much rs before the
war. And to put them together In a
house still requires workers at SO,
$40 and sometimes $12 a day.
