NEW IDEA IN HOUSE BUILDING
Claim Made That by This Method Un.
: p, skiiltd Labor Can Be Put. to
i: 50 rs Practical Use. - -

Axel Wedberg, Floral Park, L. l.. has
nade an Invention that is said TO be Of
great Importance in house build
ing, says Foreign Language 1ntor1na-
ten Service. -
Mr.. Wedbers's, idea. is to build
houses with cast concrete walls made
ii molds, which ean easily be Joined
IVY means Of Al,ooI<s and props. The
concrete blsekS are then. put together
In The corners by doyetailing. The roof
aRd the sidewalks are joined in the
same way. g.. :
: One outstanding advantage in this
nsthsd is that houses ean he built by
almost ubslilied labsrers, as most Of
the cast concrete blocks are made to
fit exactly where they belong before
being erected.
Another feature is the easy way a
damaged building can he repaired. tue
defective block only being replaced by
4 new enc. Wall paper and paint are
easily applied. The blocks are not
solid, but are provided with four
inch air ana insulating hole.
The inventor came over to this coan-
try in 1908, and has since been study
lag and working. For the last twelve
years he Has been connected with sew
er,a heuke.bniiding concerns.

JAP COTTON SPlNNERS
MENACED BY CHINESE
Further Development of Industry
Is Threatened by Increase
in Competition.
By the Associated Press


TOXIC. August 21.-GTeat interest
is being cvinced in regard to the fu-
ture OF the cotton-spinning industry
in Japan owing to the rise in the cost
OF production and the development OF
cotton spinning In China. says Dia-
markable development OF the spin-
ming industry In Japan was mainly
due to the cheap cost Of labor and the
demand in China. but the factors
which have made the cotton-spinning
industry 50 prosperous are fast dis
appearing. and grave fears are eX-
pressed in some quarters that the in
dustry Is threatened with a serious
crisis. There are three ways in which
the cotton yarn turned out OF the
Japanese spinning mills is disposed
Of. Thirty to forty per cent is export
ed. q portion is manufactured into
cotton cloths by the spinning mills
and exported, and u greater portion is
consumed by the weavers other than
the spinning mills.
The output of yarn has been in
creaStng since the withdrawal of the
restriction in December last, but this
has not resulted in an increase Of
stock, owing to an increased amount
Of export as well as the consumption
of yarn by the spinners for the manu-
facture Of cotton cloths for export.
Exports OF yarn dropped from $780,
$50 bales in 1914 to 2s2.2s0 bales in
1921. still cotton yarn does not seem
to show signs Of oversupply. but 1t IL
quite possible that with the extension
Of producing capacity adopted by
many mills and the establishment Of
new mills. together with the fast
increasing output of the spinning
.rills In China and the consequent
-ailing- off demand for japanese yarn,
lime will come sooner or later when
.he spinning industry in Japan will
suffer from a serious crisis.
