LdFolIette and the Farmers

The program for farm relief forecast in state
ments to the press, to be presented to the Cleve-
land meeting of the Conference for Progressive
Political Action as the LaFollette program, is but
a dressed-up version Of the Republican and Demo
cratic party declarations. 1t calls for tariff tin
kering manipulation Of freight rates without
touching private capital, cooperative marketing,
and "bust the trusts" 1t carefully avoids touch
ing the real problem of the farmers, the mount
ing mortgages tenantry, dispossession, and gen
eral bankruptcy.
The key to LaFollette's position is stated in the
news dispatches, which say: '"The LaFollette men
want to offer assistance to the farmers, but do not
want to pledge the proposed new party to social
istic scheme Of government aid to farmers" In
short Laollette will not agree that any action be
proposed that would touch the sacred private
property Of the Wall Street usurers, property
stolen bit by bit thru the exploitation Of city and
rural workers LaFoette is for the Farmers

Forecasts Record Building
Activity Throughout South

lu the last issue of the semi-annual
survey of building in the south, writ
ten in the" month Of January, the
statement was made that southern
construction would probably show Il
decrease for 1924 over 1928" accord
ing to G. L. Miller. president of .G. l..
Miller & Co. of Atlanta.
This was based upon conditions
existing during the closing months of
last year, which showed tendency
to slow up on the erection of large
structures, which have predominated
heavily in many cities of the section
during the past two years.
From the reports which are now
directed to our offices relative to the
financing of new structures, it be-
comes apparent that an entirely new
attitude is being assumed throughout
many of the southern states, and that
the present year will not only equal
year of 1928 in event that no unusual
situation arises during the summer to
hamper building operations in the
fall months.
Leases Quickly Taken.
zone reason for this is that recently
constructed major buildings have
been leased nearly up to their maxi
mum capacity almost as soon as they
have been finished, proving that the
demand for this type of structure has
not yet reached the saturation point
Another very important reason for
| the changing attitude on the part OF
| construction men is that several of
| our states have recently been highly
| favored financially.
"The third reason for the change is

nation, is still behind on much of it's
essential building. especially in the
direction of homes, apartments and
small business structures. The Build
ing Age Review, just published, indi-
Gates that at the end of the war the
nation was $4,000. 100000 behind in
its construction program. About three
billions of this have been made up
during the past two years, but the
balance is being absorbed at the rate
of only a billion and half year.
Build $50 Homes Daily.
1T is particularly interesting to
note that 20 per cent Of this shortage
is shown to exist in the eastern and
south Atlantic states. The largest
item is homes. Although we are now
building at a rate of over $50 homes
per day, this is not enough to take
care of present requirements, neces-
sary replacements and the existing
shortage, not to mention the provi
sion for a rapidly increasing popula-
tion. No wonder that apartments are
being erected in ever increasing num-

bers, and these on a scale never be-
fore approached.
"On the basis of our present build
ing, taking into consideration4he in
creasing demand and the rapid ex-
pansion OF business, it can safely be
assumed that our present shortage
will not be accounted for until the
year 1880, while in the south, where
development Of untouched resources
is now going on at an unparalleled
rate, the present basis will not be
sufficient to keep step with new de-
mands. 1t must continue to increase,
and that very rapidly.''

ADVICE ON USE OF sHELLAC.

Never sheliac a floor unless it is to
be covered entirely with RUGS. 1t will
rot wear. Put on about three coats
of the best varnish you can buy. See
that it comes to the job in original
cans with unbroken seals and that it
is used for all the .coatings Varnish
is made from vegetable oils and
gums, the finest of which are import
ed from China and Australia. A cheap
but wholly unsatisfactory varnish can
be made from rosfn, but do not buy
unknown and cheap varnish.

rials are slightly lower than in the
spring of 1928. over the country
generally building costs probably will
be about the same as last year. From
the amount of work actually under
contract ii seems safe to predict that
building operations will be at about
the capacity of the industry, at least
during the first six months.

Various commissions are charged on
second mortgages and contracts for
deeds depending upon the size OF
the mortgage and what the current
market is for money. The exact
amount OF commission is often i
matter for bargaining. In some dis
tricts the going rate of discount on
a contract for deed is 4 per cent per
$1,000. Thus $4,000 contract would
be discounted 90 per cent or $1,000.
