'Maine BOrrOWs Snow
For Winter Carnival
Augusta Will Bring TrainIoads From
Ontario to Assure Annual FESTIVE
ties

Ontario to Assure Annual Festivi-
ties
Especial to The New York Times)
Augusta, Me, Dec. 16-Since it rs
impossible to hold a winter carnival
without snow Augusta has arranged
to have 4 few trainloads of it brought
in from Ontario.
he annual carnival is scheduled to
take place in about three weeks and
the committee did not want to take
chances on not having a snowfall OF
their own, nor did they want to sec
the events postponed. SO arrange
mcnts have been made for bringing
in q sufficient supply from the vlcin-
| ltN of Toronto to take care of the
Ski and landing spots The tempera-
ture here is low now and there is lit
tie danger of the snow melting
The snow will he furnished free
but men must tbe hired to shovel It
up and ADDED ID that is the charge for
It considerable humber of cars The
committee think they will be able to
get their snow supply for about
$4,000"
The above is exciting some atten-
ton and the publicity is gratifying.
1t is suggested that anyone
feeling peeved at possible disrc-
gard of ,Jaine's- resources and
home industry, should reflect that as
the carnival doesn't occur until Feb.
81, 81 and %, it is possible we may
be able to make use of some of the
real, pure and undefiled Maine grown
snow, free from germs and soiled con-
tact with a dirty world, plucked
freshly by the carload in the rosy
dawn from the uncontaminated
depths of the great woods and
fragrant with the balsam of the fir.
AGgustans are strong for the home
industry, the home grown product
first, last and all the time, and it is
assumed the forehanded committee
will have iron bound contracts made
with shovellers and transportation
agencies here at home.
Toronto snow undoubtedly is very
good snow as snow goes, but a car
load of it crossing the line might
have to be reshovelled to relieve it
of suspicion of concealing Haig &
Haig, or dainty packages of wooG
alcohol blend beneath it's pure ex-
terror. And then there is the unccr-
tainty of tariff schedules, of enlbar-
goes, of germs and all that, so it is
hoped the committee will be able to
secure an ample abundance or the
home variety, along the latter part
of February.

United States produced Is per cent
more cement than in 1921 but were
quite unable nevertheless to keep
pace with the demand for cement.
1T became necessary to use up
!, 100000 barrels Of cement out OF
stock"
On July 1. 1922, the demand for
bricks exceeded the stock Of bricks
by 10000, 900.
When a country demands the
doing of a building job with not
enough men for the job and not
enough material for the job the
manufacturers of the material ana
the organizations Of the men get
Offered abnormal prices. They often
grab at these prices without con-
sidering the ultimate consequences.
The manufacturers Of material
are more responsible for high build.
ing costs than the organizations or
men.
From March of 1920 to November
of 1922 the Index number" of the
cost Of building went up twenty
points. The Index" number" Of
the prices. of materials, however,
went up thirty points.
Again In the period from July to
December of 1922 the Index num-
Der" of prices Of materials went
up thirty points while the Index
number" of building trades wages
went up only six points.
Labor has not ''bulled" the mar
ket more than the manufacturers.
It has "bulled" II less. Meanwhile,
however, the efficiency shown by
labor has greatly decreased.
The labor shortage is enabling
men to hold jobs even when they
are less efficient than before.
The trouble all goes back to the
abnormal demand which has pro-
duced shortage Of materials and
which has emphasized the shortage
of men. These shortages have Gre
ated q competitive bidding for ma
terials and for men and have In
duced a heightened cost and low
cred efficiency.
Living Scale Declines.
The result of all such heightened
costs and of all such lowered eff
ciencies is that the standard of
living for the mass Of the people
goes down even when wages in
terms of dollars are going up.
The true real income of the aver
age American union workmen-
measured not in terms of dollars
but in terms of commodities pur-
chaseable by his dollars-has actu-
ally been declining ever since 1900.
The mass of the people are not
benefiting by this situation. In
the building industry. with a de-
mand which is abnormal, the con.
sequences are abnormal The pups
lie should get these facts In mind
and should act with care in consid-
srin@ and approaching any new.
building enterprise today.
Such is the view of a man who
through his work in harmonizing
wages with living costs in the cleo
-rical mart of the building indus
try, has been obliged to become ou:-
standinglv familiar with the build
mo ind,is+ry's collected proved facts.

BUILDING CRISIS
CAUSE LAID
To DEMAND
Six Times Greater Than Four
Years Ago, Expert Tells
William Hard.
BY WILLIAM HARD.

NEW YORK, June o.-L. Il.
Comstock, head of the experienced
electrical construction firm Of L. K.
Comstock & Co., and chairman of
a commission which will make a
report today on general national
building conditions to the execu-
tive committee of the New York
Building Congress, was asked by
this writer today to give the public
the benefit Of his prolonged in.
Quiries on the following points:
WHO is responsible for the
critical and dangerous situation
now existing in the building indus
try because of high costs? Is 1T
the manufacturers Of materials?
Is 1t the building trade unions?
What should the public do?"
Mr.. Comstock, who for many
years has taken a prominent part
on the side Of the employers In
adjusting the wages of electrical
workers in all parts of the country
through the Council on Industrial
struction Industry, replied that he
could not reveal the recommends
tions which he will make today to
the contractors and architects and
engineers and real estate operators
and labor leaders of the New York
Building Congress, but said that
ne was willing to state certain
facts from his personal tnvestiga-
ton and knowledge.
Demand Six Times Greater.
The public, said Comstoclk, in seek
ing a remedy for the present situa-
ton, should go back to its cause.
In the year 1922 the physical dema nd
on labor and on material for the
construction of buildings ordered by
the public was six times as large as
the demand in the year 1918.
Then in the first four months of
1928 the demand set up by the public
for new buildings was again so per
cent larger even than in the first
four months of 1922.
The year 1922 was by far the great.
est construction year ever known in
this country. Yet the first four
months Of 1928 showed the public
going far beyond its 1922 demand
upon constructors.
There does not exist in this coun-
try the material means or the hui
man means to satisfy such a de-
mand. The root of the trouble is
that the demand for construction
has gone beyond the means of cor
Structioa. both in materials and In
men.
In 1922 in the American Fedora
ton of Labor there actually were
fewer building trades mechanics
than In 1921. In 1921 there were
$50, 900 of them. In 1922 there were
only S21, 000

a aclarar el suelto en- question por re-
presentar yo algunos casos similares,
asegurando a mis- Representatives que
la question no ha sido definitivamente
resuelta por la Corte de Distrito, pues
tai decision es apelable la Corte Su-
prema de Puerto Rico, que es Ell Tri-
bunal que dira la Ultima palabra so
bre Ell aSunto.
No vayamos tan aprisa.
