men of almost every type has in

with added vigor, the report states.
The demand for architectural AMI
structural craftsmen and designers
with building or plant experience has
far exceeded the supply in almost all
sections of the country.
While the general conditions are
better at this time than they have

is still some irregularity but the
main trend shows Improvement sup

for a moro hopeful feeling appear in
the continued increase in the opera

SUBSIDY BILL
SLATED To PASS:
BY M|D-AUGUST
Will Be Taken Up Immediately
After Recess, MondeII
Assures.
BY wINDER r. HARRIS.
Universal Service.

The Administration ship subsidy
bill will be taken UP for passage in
the House about the middle OF Au-
gust, certainly not later than Sep
tember 1. the leaders estimated to-
day in discussing plans for the House
to recess next Friday for month.
Republican Floor Leader Mondell
announced that the arrangement ten
tatively agreed upon provides that
the House shall close down for thirty
days or five weeks, beginning Fri
day. 1t is not expected that the
Senate will pass the tariff by that
time. however, and II that proves to
be the case, the House will recess
for three days at a time. without
transacting any business until the
tariff comes back from the Senate.
Under the agreement between the
ing. the subsidy bill will be taken up
Immediately after the tariff Is sent
back to the House and then to con.
ference. Leaders in tho Senate,
which must consent to any recess of
the House beyond three days, are
understood to have told MonGell they
feared they will not be able to put
through the tariff until August Is,
or possibly September l.
The plan finally agreed on for a
recess of the House probably will be
to pass a concurrent resolution FRO
viding for the recess to begin June
80 and continue until August I.
Then, IL the Senate Is stu busy on
the tariff, as expected, only the
Speaker and one member will have
to come back to Washington to re.
convene the House. The process Of
three-day recesses then Will follow
until the tariff Is ready for consider
alton in the House.
BY that time the full membership
of the House will have been ordered
hack, and as soon as the tariff bill
goes to conference, the subsidy meas
ure will be taken UP. While the
House Is passing the ship legislation
the Senate will be engaged IN putting
the soldier bonus out Of the way. SO
as to go ahead with the subsidy as
soon as, 1t goes over there.
Friends of the subsidy bill were
confident today that the rccess plans
will have no effect on the iron-clad
agreeemnt with the Presid-nt to take
1t up and pass It at the present ses.
sion. The delay, they said, now ap.
pears to be little longer than II
was originally anticipated. but that
win not be allowed to interfere with
It's ultimate passage before adjourn
ment of the session. 3
