 The third factor of national pros- perity mentioned is restored activity in the construction industr es The delay in the resumption of activity in building has been due to the high cost of money for investment, together with the belief by investors that costs of both materials and labor continued to be unduly high, and that under the control Of their unions labor not only demanded continuance of war time wages, but insisted upon limiting the productiveneSS of labor. Investors have become tired of the incessant warfare between groups of workmen, creating delays, increased cost and humiliating submissions. During the year past employers and organizations of business men in various cities have made earnest efforts to improve conditions in this industry. with a cons iderable measure of successs. Re- auctions have been made in costs of materials. Tn ere has been some re- resisted, and less than in other em- ployme ent.

Our capacity for pro- duct on was expanded to allow for foreign markets. Then came the war with its demond for increased pro- duction of exportable merchandise, which caused enormous expansion of factories for war materials, now con verted to the production of materials for peace.

 She had fancied a little home circle of which she would be the centre and star, spoiled alike by father and mother Dearer than any dream of a lover had been to Julia tn hope for days to come, when sine should be a successful young actress, with an adoring Daddy to be proud of her. Now the dream was c1ouded; her father was an old man, self-absorb- ed: her mother-but Julia had al- ways known her mother to & be both both this. her little visit in Sausal to had altered her whole viewpoint. Ignor- ant of life as she was, and bewilder was still intelligent enough to feel an acture d scintent with her old world an agonizing long ng for that better and cleaner and higher different from life as it was lived in her mothers home-in her grand mothers, in Mrs Tarbury's - Julia had not the most remote idea Until that she wanted anything different.
 She broded over the problem night and day; sometimes her hours of gloomy introspection were interrupt ed by bursts of rebellious fury She would not bear 1t, she would not be despised and obscure and ignorant, when, so close to her. there were girls of her own age to whom Fate nad been utterly K1nCs IL was not her fault and it was not right - it was not right to despice her for what she could not help!

Walking with Mark, she saw in some Kearney Street win dow an enlarged photograph of lit tie yacht cutting against a stiff breeze. and felt a rush Of unwelcone memories suddenly assai1 her.

he ceases to buy you cease to prosper One or our greatest problems today IS now to get back those three hun dred millions of lost foreign sales. For the same II months our imports were in 1920-S5. .012, ,424,0OO; in 1921- $2,271.797,000 a reduction of s2,74O,- eSI, 900. The total diminution of our ports, was s6,05S,S13 900.
 IT we should, whilst regarding only one phase of our fiscal problem, ac- cept policy which will make 1t more difficult for fore.g nations to trade With us. how can we realize the abun- dant business we are all hoping for? We would deliberately cut ourselves off from six billions of dollars of business in eleven months We may and say what are Europe ot Asia or Africa to us, but we cannot in that way attain the greatest markets for our goods. Their business is essen problem now before our country is to discover that fiscal policy which will protect us and not impoverish our nefghbors, which will, without des- and expand the foreign trade with out which we cannot prosper. We must determine how we can find ena- ployment for our people in making the correct solution of this problem the renewal of prosperity largely de- bends.
 I shall not attempt to predict how soon the turn of the tide of prosper ity will come Hitherto I have prophesied and proved to be a false prophet Let us face the future with clear faith that the times ahead are to be as good as those past.
 And now in closing I refer to a matter which should soon occupy a large place in the plans of business men throughout the country. Phila- delph a is preparing to hold great exhibition in 1926 in commemoration of the 15oth anniversary of Ameri- can independence. Occurring fifty years after the Centennial Exhibition of 1876. 1t will cover the entire de- Nefopment or many important indus tr es and the complete transforma-
