In The Big Paper Factories.

Leaving the cotton mills l went through several of the big paper fac- tories run by the rapids, all of the machinery being operated by cleo tricity One Of these mills was found- ed before our Declaration of Inde- pendence was signed. It is still using rags and 1t furnishes the paper for the banknotes for most of the bank rupt nations of Europe. 1t supplies book paper for England and fancy writing paper for Paris. Some of the other mills are making wood pulp, and the town ships newsprint to Rio de Janeiro. Buenos Aires, Yokohama and Shanghai.
 Finland Is one of the big paper supply points of the world. It sends wood pulp to all parts of the con tinent, and just now it is furnishing a great deal of paper to Russia, the establishment of the alleged freedom of the press having increased the Russian demand. The output of wood pulp now runs into hundreds of thou sands of tons.

over the way, The raw cotton now comes from the United States. some or 1t direct and some via Liverpool. Before the World war it was supplied py Russia, but then that supply was cut off and the blockade made 1t i'm possible to get in American cotton by way of the Baltic. Nevertheless the Films kept the mills going by sending ships from New Orleans into the Arctic ocean, and hauling the bales south over the ice and snow. They had 300 miles of sledding be- tween the port and the railway, and 500 horses were needed to haul the loads. The amount imported that way was 5000 bales, and the freight alone 10 cents a pound.

GOLD BASIS RATE TO PAY GERMAN LABOR
New System Will Go Into Effect
 At Early Date

BERLIN, August 25.-The gold basis rate for the payment of workers throughout Germany was decided upon finally today. After numerous conferences extending back for months, an agreement was reached whereby wages will be paid on a gold basis one third less than in pre-war days. The conference was held in Berlin attended by represen- tatives of workers In all branches of trade from the industrial centers and committees of employers rom various parts of Germany.
 ECefctive as soon as the transfor- nation can be made from the old system, workers will be paid weekly in paper marks on gold basis.

 win you ever have trouble with Norway and Sweden?"
 T do not think so," replied the chief of staff.
 'Racially the Films and the Swedes are more nearly allied than the Films and the Russians. Geographically we are part of Scandinavian rather than of Russia The Scandinavians are friendly to us, and they are glad to have a buffer s,Ate between them and the Russians. You will remember we had a dispute with Sweden over the Aland Islands and that by mu- tual agreement we referred this. to the League of Nations. Both na- tions accepted it's judgment and that act marked the first success of the League in averting the war.
 "As to the Russians themselves" continued General Enckel I've have always been more or less independent of them Finland did not belong to Russia in the same way as the other provinces of that empire.

curIey Sees Hope in Success
of People in Checking
Sugar Gouge.
By MAYOR JAMES NJ. CURLEY,

by MANI JAMES M. OOEGLE /,
of Boston.
Written Expressly for Cosmopolitan
News Service.
The most pleasing news, from
the public's standpoint, that has
appeared in the press in many days,
was the announcement in the
Hearst papers today that the price
of sugar has dropped about a half
cent a pound.
That fact, preceded by the an.
nouncement that 100000 school
children have taken a pledge to
use no sweets, is an indication that,
regardless of the impotency of
officialdom at Washington, it is
within the power of the people,
when united, to right wrongs ana
destroy injustice.
Prosperity is necessary for the
welfare of all America, and per-
nlanent prosperity is possible, pro-
vided profiteering is prevented.
May the lesson just taught by
the people in the matter of sugar
prove of value in keeping within
reasonable bounds the prices of all
other commodities.

There is nothing in the current

facturers Association in it's monthly
report. while some statisticians
are trying to figure out that there
win be buyers strike during the
last half of the year, the orders
are piling up on the books of the
manufacturers. 1t is not our intent
to put too optimistic a tone in this
report, nor do we intend to c.acise
those who study figures and work
out the business cycles.
A great deal of material that is
being delivered today is upon jobs
that were started in 1922. At tho
same time there are a great many
new operations getting under way,
and 1t would appear at this time
that there will be about all the
work in the construction field that
the labor supply is able to handle. :"
There is a serious shortage in
some of the skilled trades, notably
the bricklayers and plasterers. If
there were As, 200 more skilled brick
layers in this country today every
one of them could be put to work.
This industry, in cooperation
with others affected, is preparing a
course of instruction for the train
Ing of bricklayers. This is the
course followed in the successful
apprenticeship school in Cleveland.
The course will be available to any
city that will undertake the enter
prise.
Reports from 1913 companies rep
resenting every part of the United
States show gain in orders on
their books in every district with
out exception. This is one of the
most remarkable reports received
during the history Of this organiza-
sections, which in recent months
have been tagging behind, show a
real pick up.
There is gain of 161 ,O00. 900
brick in orders on books" since
the last report was compiled one
month ago. The burned brick at
the yard remains at about the
same level, but there is salts
factory gain in green brick on
hand. This latter item indicates
that the plants are getting rapidly
back to normal production with
the improving season.
It is gratifying to note that
there is practically no change in
price in common brick throughout
the country, in spite OF the strong
demand.
The shipment Of brick from the
plants last month exceeded pro-
duction, which means that the re-
serves were lowered. With the
greatly increased number of plants
In the northern section now in OPP
GRAFTON. it is to be expected that
production will show substantial
increases. At the time the report
of a month ago was compiled
nearly 35 per cent Of the plants
reporting were closed on account Of
weather, white today a little more
than 20 per cent Of the plants are
idle
The manufacturers are optimistic,
only one out Of 1913 indicating that,
in his opinion, indications are not
good for the future.
