There is small doubt that most
manufacturers are making steady

the south and west that prices of
steel, brick. lumber and other build
ing materials have started on de-

difficulty at present is not In getting
business on their books. but in get

and in getting trained workmen for
skilled positions. Deliveries of ma
terials are falling further behind
every day. and the extra expense OF

which is the last. thing desired by
manufacturers at this time.
One automobile plant at Lansing

hands and tool makers that 1t has

semi-skilled workmen for. q period
preceding their regular employment.
This has yielded some results, but
the president of the company states

A canvass of the ,leadtDE 'bankers

PHILADELPHIA. May 26-Were it

bituminous coal fields. which started
April 1. April and May gross earnings
of the ".Pennsy" would have shown "a
substantial increase over preceding
months and the corresponding period of
1921 AS it is, the falling off in coal
revenues has been offset to some extent
by larger movement of other commodi-
ties so that earning statements for the
months in question will make a salts
factory showing notwithstanding the
strike. Movement of diversified freight
started to pick up the middle of Feb
ruary and has continued to show i'm
provement right along. While strike

ATLANTA, May 26.-Business men
throughout the southeast regard the
cut In freight rates ordered by the
interstate Commerce Commission and
the maintenance Of 20-cent cotton
as, compelling factors In, the return
OF prosperity to this region. The
heaVy gold reserve held by the
Atlanta Federal Reserve Bank is con-
crete proof of the Liquidation of
frozen credits in this territory and
the ability Of the farmer to get along
without borrowing.
The general improvement In the
dry goods business Is attributed to
the advance in tho price of cotton
and tobbers report a better feeling
among merchants and buyers as
result of the rate reduction. Jobbers
OF every line are confident that prices
are hardening and predict that the
retailer who buys now is assured
OF an excellent profit.
Dwelling and apartment building
here continues to smash all previous
records. Announcement by a large
department store that 1t will COM
