IN an industrial forecast for 1922

IN an industrial forecast for 1922
it is necessary to consider the
causes of the depression, chief
among which is the unbalanced re-
lationship between the prices OF
farm and other primary products on
the one hand, and the prices Of
manufactured goods, transportation
service and various other products
and services on the other hand.
The final estimates of the Depart
mcnt of Agriculture upon the 1921
crops give them market value to
the farmers $S,000,000.000 below the
value OF the crop OF 1918 and
$3,400, 100000 below the value of the
crop of 1920. These are figures OF
great significance. The farmers
have produced nearly as much in
quantity, but it has been valued in
the exchanges at less than one-half
the figures of 1919 As other prod
ucts and services have not declined
in like degree, the farmers must buy
much less, and all the industries arc
suffering in consequence.
1t is useless to expect return to
normal conditions while this dis
parity OF compensation between
great bodies of producers exist. 1t
is unfair and it establishes an
effective blockage against revival
of business. 1t is time that the bust
ness community took cognizance OF
the situation, and set itself to the
task of correcting it. The argument
that stock on hand was purchased
at higher prices has lost whatever
force it ever had. Merchants who
are interested in the return of pros
perity should do their part for it.
and one of their duties is to reduce
operating costs.
In large part the situation is
chargeable to the action of organ
lied labor in clinging to the war
time wage rates. Raw materials
and foodstuffs have had a great de-
cline at wholesale, but between the
wholesale markets and consumers
the cost of handling and manuiac-
turing has not declined in like pro-
portions. The effect is to obstruc,
/, the distribution of goods and throw
millions of wage-earners out of en-
ployment, at the same time keeping
up the cost of living on the entire
wage-earning population. In the
aggregate there is no gain, but
great loss, to the wage-earners as
class.
Railroad Wages
'. The railroad companies arc
struggling with difficult situation.
and although their efforts are in the
public interest they have little help
from the public. Railroad wages
in shops and for common labor arc
50 far above the wages paid for
similar work along their lines tina,
the companies find it practicable 'e.
make important savings by con
tracing for their repairs and muci,
other work. The New York Contra
has contracted for freight-handline
ct some of its terminals, and the
Erie has contracted for brakeman

a big league shot from we'll out at the
side making the score at the end of

OLD NICK CARTER, TIRED
OF LIVING, CROSSES DIVIDE
Frederick Van Rensselaer, Dey,
Who Wrote Nearly 1000 Nick
Carter Stories in 20 Years,
Asks Friend to Help Widow.

New York, April 27.-Old Nick
Carter went West" yesterday. He
was old and tired. He felt that in
his declining years life had not done
it's best for him and SO, just as the
city was breaking into it's early
morning roar, taking its shutters
down for another days accounting
the old chap, alone in little room
in a Twenty-seventh street hotel
shot himself and slipped out across
the great divide.
He had been thinking of it for
some days. Friday, the day before
he registered at the Hotel Broztell,
he wrote letter to an old friend
Maj. Joseph Caccavajo, consulting
engineer.
Saturday night, after getting his
room at the Broztell, he wrote two
more letters, one to the firm of
Street & Smith, that published his
detective stories. The other letter
was indited to Third Deputy Police
Commissioner Faurot. He addressed
Faurot as Dear Old Joe," and went
on to explain that the burdens of
life had become too great for his
thin old shoulders.
"Please forgive me-" he wrote
please be good to and help Hattie
my wife. I can't stand the gaff, Joe
so I'm going out. Everything's gone
to smash and me with it,
In his letter to the Major, he
said;
"This will be rather a shock tc
you, but I'm sending it just the
same because | want you for old
times sake to do something for me
after I'm gone. For I'm going West
by the quick route in few hours
after ! post this. Things have gone
to smash with me and I'm just tired
out, and want to try the long sleep.
It's no sudden decision. I'm doing
it because l think it's for the best
for all concerned. l can't stand the
thought of growing old and becom-
ing a burden"
His name was Frederick Van
Rensselaer, Dey. He lived with his
wife at Nyack, N. Y. He began tc
write his Nick Carter stories in
1889. He took a contract to, turn
out one story week, and kept il
up, with the exception of two short
intervals, for 20 years. He wrote
1915 Nick Carter stories.

BONDS ARE NOW TAXABLE.

The Missouri Supreme Court in
March handed down decision de-

Brief Reviews and Notices

Denise of the Three Pines. By Edith
A. Sawyer. Price, $1.65. The Sand
man, His Fairy Stories. Price, $175.
Published by Page Co., Boston.
The whimsical mite tossed up by
the war and drawn out of Belgium by
the kindly DR.. Langdon gives title to
the first of these books. Denise is a
lovable little character. Her trans
formation back to health, physical and
mental, through the genial life in the
Three Pines Bungalow, furnishes
much of the interest in this pleasant,
natural story. Dick, the boy who
came back broken in health but with
the Croix de Guerre, makes a good
foil for the pitiful Denise. The in
vigorating air in the Maine woods
soon does wonders for all. Dick re-
gains strength and is himself once
more. AS for Denise-well, that's for
you to find out in this very interesting
and diverting tale.
The Sandman each night takes
Joyce into the Land of Nod. Her ad-
ventures on twelve different nights
with the various inhabitants of fairy
land will prove entertaining for chill
dren. Her experiences with the Dan
dy Lions and the Tiger Lilies, and
her final escape from the Snap Drag
on, give a thrill which the unfolding
mentality of the child will appreciate.
The fact that the narrative presents
the story as consecutive whole will
tend to sustain interest.

remont Woods in April, 1918, being
the first Catholic chaplain decorated
for bravery. He went over the top
eight times in one day to bring in
wounded men who were on exposed
advance ground where the rescue
squads We're not allowed to go. "The
Angel of the Trenches" is what his
men called him. He was eventually
wounded and gassed and ordered
home to recuperate. He refused to
leave the boys. When the war was
over he failed to rally from the dis
ease that had fastened itself upon him.

Bishop Prat's diocese contains 8,000,-

Bishop Aguirre speaks of the Chinese
practice of abandoning infant daugh-
ters in lonely places, a custom that
has been succeeded by the present one
of drowning them, and how he asks
the midwives, Christian or pagan, to
bring the babies instead to the Cath
olic orphanages, for which the mid
wives receive 20 cents baby. In
this way, between 1000 and 5000 girl
babies are received into the orphan
ages each year. More could be done
if there we're greater resources and
more orphanages. The Right Rever-
end Bishop made an appeal at the Sa-

have been received.
