1924, and is to hold for one year.
According to William A. Durgin,
chief of the Commerce Departments
division Of simplified practice, this is
another step in the general program
Tor the elimination of waste in in
dustry.
The proposed eliminations," he
SAID, were strongly supported by the
american Institute of Architects; the
National Retail Hardware Associa-
ton, representing 21,0OO retail hard
ware dealers throughout the United
states; the National Retail Lumber
Dealers Association, the Southeastern
Builders' Supply Association and the
Prepared Roofing Association"
prepared roofing is a product used
all over the world, not only as a roof
ing material, but in cane fields and
elsewhere for keeping weeds down
ana retaining moisture and warmth
1t Is believed this program will
bring many economies to the manu-
facturers, such as decreased idle
stocks. less idle investment. and ulti-
mately lower production costs, and
benefit the distributors by stimulat
ing turnover and increasing sales.
Consumers will also benefit in due
time through better quality, better
prices and quicker service Several
other sfmplifications of building mate
rails have been completed. notably
common and face clay brick. Others

PROSPEROUS ERA AHEAD

Exports of copper from this cOun
try for the year ending June 30. 1924
show total shipments of 961,119,O4t
pounds.
OF the total exports for the first
six months of this year, 123, 273,92C
pounds were shipped to Germany and
Holland; 1891, 760 pounds to the
United Kingdom and 92,039,36C
pounds to France.
If the foregoing returns were pos
sible with Europe in an unsettled
condition, much better results may
be expected if European conditions
are stabilized and worked out under
the Dawes plan which has been ac-
cepted and is now in operation.
After five years of political wrang-
ling in European affairs is it any
wonder that business and industry
breathe sigh of relief when buss-
ness ideas begin to control in inter-
national affairs instead of diplomatic
buncOmb?
If we, in our country, would profit
by Europe's experience, we will de-
mand sound economic and business
conditions here instead of political
tomfoolery and in-efficiency which
would cripple our Industrial and
financial system.
