If the worn out cells are caught in

country will be heavily overtaxed
with larger volume of freight than
can be handled, and the manufacture
ing interests and the construction
work of the country will likewise be
fully taxed.
All of this condition can be hasten
ed by a lowering of freight rates,
which would stimulate the volume of
traffic exactly as the lowering of dis
count rates stimulated the revival of
confidence and building operations.
High discount rates and high freight
rates have been a burden on bust
ness.
The tide has turned. The surge is
on. But If we would reap full mea-
sure of prosperity we must hasten
the passage of a tariff bill; hasten
the plans for better financing of the
agricultural interests on a safer and
broader foundation than agriculture
has ever had before; hasten the low
ering of freight and passenger rates.
And when these things have been ac-
complished we shall go forward with
stride of seven league boots to
prosperity which will furnish profit

and the mechanic, for the capital of

duction in agriculture. in manufac@

THE WHEELS OF
INDUSTRY ARE MOVING

Railroads are ordering material 10
a greater extent than for a good
many years. Building contractors
are finding an increasing and almost
an incessant demand for their work.
Building materials are tending to
higher prices and to an increasing
scarcity of supply. The demand for
lumber grows apace and the trend
of prices is upward. In some sections
the supply of skilled labor is scarce
ly equal to the demand. though there
is still a large amount of unskilled
labor out of employment.
Highway improvement is proceed
ing at a rate which must soon tax the
facilities of highway contractors and
the people who supply bodybuilding
material With the certainty that
the country has entered upon an era
of highway building of which as yet
we have seen onl the beginning.
there is a vast volume of business
ahead for the highway workers.
The demand for pig iron, long dor
mant to such an extent that the in !
dustry seemed almost dead, is in
creasing, and the advance in steel
and pig iron has not lessened the de-
mand for these materials. Indeed, |
people always buy on rising mar
ket and cease to buy on declining |
market No sooner had the country |
come to a full realization of the fact
announced months ago by the Man.
ufacturers Records that the entire o.
nancial policy of the country had
been reversed, and that President
Harding's boast that lowering dis
count rates and thus stimulating the
credit facilities of the country was
one of the most important actions of
his administration, than the far-see-
ing people of the country began to
get ready for business.
With every decrease in interest
rates there has come an advance in
the price of government bonds and in
the general security markets, furfill-
ing in that respect every statement
which the Manufacturers Record has
made during the past two years. The
demand for new securities has been
so tremendous as to astonish the
country and show the enormous buy
ing power of the American people.
Co-incident with the lowering of
discount rates and the advance in
the stock and bond market has come
a betterment in farm conditions with
higher prices for agricultural prod
ucts. The War Finance orporation
has continued it's active operation Of
lending money to assist farmers and
livestock raisers, and in army cases
the very fact that this corporation
was prepared to advance money for
these purposes has caused local
banks to loosen up their credits, and
thus the money actually loaned by
the War Finance Corporation has
been only one of the benefits derived
from it's operations.
Business it not yet by any means
at full tide, but it is moving forward
rapidly and when it reaches full tide

DID THEY TELL THE TRUTH?

In 1920 tn Republican spellbinders
raised great cry about the rotten
ness and incompetency of the state
and national government under the
Democrats, and their promises, like
sweet incense, seemed to ascend to the
very throne of High Heaven, They
were going to clean house and do a
wonderful lot of repainting. What
has become of these glittering prom
ises? A man who paid a fine for
disloyal utterances during the war
has been appointed to a state posi-
ton of trust, and Senator Newberry,
upon whom it was proved was spent
$l95,000 for his election, was given a
seat in the "Millionaires' Club" the u.
S. Senate, by vote of the majority
of that pious body. 1t was a cam
paign of TRADE and abuse, in which
the song of hate for Woodrow Wilson
was sung from one end of this coun-
try to the other They were going to
deliver the state from the extrava-
giant and wasteful Democrats, inaug-
urate economy and reduce taxation.
