What will this lead to? Easy
qucs ion to answer. The into

the great manufacturing center,
as it now is the center Of pro-
du-tion of raw materials, espoc-

Most Of the gain in interior
manufacturing has occurred in
the Mississippi Valley and the
states around the Great Lakes.
Ohio, for instance, turned out
$749,OOO,0OO of manufactured
goods in 1900. In 1920 this
has increased nearly six fold to
$5,10O,O0O,OOO.

Know, Ter our nccd or Ms
special carc.-M. d. Brine
YES AND NO
Arc we bidding" ourselves
when we talk about the great
advantages derived from labor
saving devices?
The Pennsylvania railroad
prints this on the cover of its
dining car menu:
"Millions of tons of orc are
carried in solid trainloads over
ire Pennsylvania system every
year to feed the blast furnaces
of the iron and steel industry.
'In order to transfer the ore
from cargo boats Of the Great
Lakes to railroad cars, the
Pennsylvania system operates
giant electric unloading ma
chimes at its ore docks on Lake
Eric.
Prior to 1882 this work was
done by hand-shovel and wheel
barrow at the rate of about 100
tons a day
To-day four machines at
Cleveland can empty a vessel
and load cars at the rate Il 5000
tons an hour
The actual mining and trans
portation of iron ore have also
been specded up by labor saw
ing devices, the same as hand
ling the ore at the docks.
All this is generally accepted
as more economical"
However, in the days when
iron ore was handled by wheel
barrow and hand-shovcl, the Gre
cost 81 a ton at Lake Erie
docks.
Today the price is between
S. and Sc ton.
1t looks as if, the more eco
nomical the process, the higher
The cost.
You'll find the same state of
contradiction in wheat. In 1860
the cash price of wheat at Chi
cago was as low as &C cents a
bushci, Today, even with farm
prices far too low compared with
other prices, wheat costs lot
more than it did in 1860.
All this despite the introduce
ton of tremendous labor-saving
devices and processes in growing
the wheat and shipping it to
markec.
In general, it seems that la
bor-saving devices tend to in
crease selling price, on the aver
age and in the long run.
This is counteracted by two
important things:
First: The buying power of
the dollar has changed. A dol
lar represents less buying power,
today, than so cents did when
grandpa was a boy. Every one
has more dollars, too, so the
dollar is not a fair measure of
Price.
Second: The introduction of
labor-saving devices and pro-
ccsscs has released human labor
for other work. This enables
humanity to produce thousands
of articles for general use,
where in the old days such COM
mcdities were numbered by
hundreds. We of today have a
widGr assortment of articles,
both necessities and luXuries,
than a few generations ago.
That is the long-rangc trend, a
higher standard of living. Price
is secondary. When a dollar
would buy almost anything, as
old men put it, "the trouble was,
no one had the dollar"
