Doughboys, gobs and marines who
attend the American Legion national
convention in New Orleans October
16 to 81, may obtain a bunk" for
$3.50 a day, as a result of an agree
ment between representatives OF
seven leading hotels and convention
officials.
The hotel men have consented to
establish a rate of $3.50 for rooms
without baths and $3.50 with baths.
This rate is based on a minimum of
three persons to the room. If the SER
vice man prefers to dwell in solitary
grandeur he will pay $3.50 to $3.50,
depending upon whether his room is
equipped with a bath.
All reservations for hotel rooms
during the FIVE days of the conven-
ton will be made through forty-eight
legion state adjutants, who will for
ward the reservations to the hotels
and housing committees of the con-
vention.
Some of the most famous hostel
ries in the south are a party to the
arrangements for reduction in rates.
Included in the list are the Grune-
valid, st. Charles, De Soto, Lafayette,
Monteleone, Bienville and Planters.
Legion officials obtained assurances
from all hotel managers that all
rooms, excluding those occupied by
permanent guests, will be turned
over to the convention visitors.

TIME TO BUILD YOUR HOME

If figures talk at all, they are now
building homes to get busy and let
their contracts. Moreover, they tell
the same story in every state in the
union. An examination of the fig
ures just completed by the United
States Department of Labor discloses
that the cost of building is now 25
per cent below 1920, and every indi-
cation is that from this time on any
change is more likely to be upward
than downward.
Great volumes of money have been
released for building purposes, as
forecast some months ago in the Ad-
vocate The result is building activ-
ity is found in all sections of the I'm
tied States.
The price of materials has taken
a considerable tumble, and while
wages remain high, nevertheless, the
readjustment has been downward
rather than upward. Experts agree
that prices, both for material and la
Dor, never will reach the pre-war
standard, and with the increasing &C
tivity, labor certainly will hold its
own and material will go up in price
by reason of greatly increased de
mand.
1t is a mistake TO imagine that the
building being done will take care
of the shortage of homes that came
to us as result of building stagna-
ton during the war 1t will take sew

WISCONSIN, HAS oNE-FouRTH
CONTRASTING ASSOCIATIONS

The 115 cow-testing associations
in Wisconsin, kept in operation with
the assistance of county agents and
specialists employed comparatively
by the United States Department of
Agriculture and the state agricultu-
raj college, equal almost one-fourth
of all the associations of the country.
Twelve of these associations have
been organized since December 1,
1921, and the membership in the
state now numbers about $500 farm
ers owning $4,000 cows.
The aims of the association have
been TO weed out Improbable cows
and to feed the animals balanced ra-
lions for maximum milk production.
Records of the associations show the
value Of high-grade cows and pure
bred sires. Last year 1856 purebred
bulls were purchased by the associa-
tions and SO scrub bulls replaced by
purebreds in SO associations.

GET TARIFF OUT OF POLITICS


Ebert II. Gary, head Of the U. s.
Steel Corporation, and president of
the American Iron and Steel Insti-
tue, puts much thought into few
words when he states that revision
of the tariff is an intermittent dis.
ease--that Il appears il, not with
every season of congress, certainly
with every change in the administra'
ton. N
The tariff seems to be an import
ant political question, but 1t ought
not to be a political question at all.
It should, as the steel man points
out, be decided strictly upon scien-
tifc principles and from the stand
point of fairness to every part of the
country, to every department of hui
man industry, to every line OF en-
ployment and to the public welfare.
There is nothing novel in this
thought. The national tariff com
mission, at great expense to the
country, studied the problem, gath
cred data enough to sink ship, pre-
pared reports, made recommends
lions and went through the usual
multitude of inquisitorial gymnastics
that mark practically every official
probe" and when 1t was all over,
everyone said it was splendid and
then promptly went to sleep. The
tariff being no longer needed as a
pressing political issue, was set
aside and forgotten. Now we have
it bobbing up again, with the forces
! all set and primed to upset the bust
ness conditions of the country.
Surely it is time the public took the
matter in hand to put an end, once
and for all, to. this perpetual econom-
A; ic menace. Regardless of whether
men believe in high tariff, low tariff,
tariff for revenue only or no tariff at
all, certainly they must unite in the
conviction that mingling with poll
tics is as vicious as it is disastrous.
When all is said and done, tariff
| schedule advocates always are self
ish. They fight for their own inter
est. There may not be much amiss
with this because in the last analy
sis, obedience to intelligent selfish
ness means service to the majority
The danger comes when selfishness
is armed with political black jack
By all means get the tariff question
out of politics.

ply + ails New York

Samuel untermyer, special counsel to
the housing committee, is understood to
have made arrangements with Euro
pean brick manufacturers for supply
ing New York with brick in the event
of the local makers failing to furnish
all the material needed.
Assemblyman j. H. Caulfeld, who
has succeeded Senator Lockwood as a
member of the Legislative Committee
told the Dow Service Daily Building
Reports on Saturday that when Mr.
Untermyer left for Europe he proposed
to make available for immediate ship
ment from some European port, pre-
sumably Danzig, at least two shiploads
Of common brick, which would be
started across the Atlantic should New
York's sources of brick supply fail
through natural or unnatural causes,
sufficiently to start general price sky
rocketing to the consumer and conse-
quent suffocation of the general build
ing industry.
The announcement made for the
Metropolitan Life Insurance Company
that further progress with it's great
housing program in this city had to be
indefinitely deferred because of the
high price of brick and labor prices,
conceded with unofficial word in the
trade to the effect that the brick ship
ment was on it's way.

Every member Of the Lockwood
Committee" said Assemblyman Caul-
field, knows that Mr.. Untermyer
planned before he sailed to prove that
European brick could be shipped here
in competition with American made
brick and sold at $1,000 a thousand
wholesale.
Events have been turning in such a
way, since Mr.. Untermyer left this
country, as to indicate to almost anv
Interested observer that some sort of
manipulation of the brick supply was
in progress. There was talk of fuel
shortage and then prices started to
move up. Then they began to 90 back
again to low levels, at about the same
time that the shortage of brick seem ed
to become even more acute and the rail
strike further complicated the prospect
of plenteous brick supply just at the
time when the construction movem ent
of old-time proportions was getting un-
der way.
For some reason just enough brick
was being shipped in to take care of
the markets requirements without nor.
