Railroad Expenditures

Next to house-building operations
the railroads were the largest factot
in the business revival OF last year
They are estimated 10 have used p
per cent OF the steel manufactured
and according to the Railway Age
their total capital expenditures wer,
about $l.O76.0O0.OOO. That part OF
their purchases OF equipment which
represented requirements would be
charged to maintenance and their ex-
pendiiures under this heading were
unusually large on account OF the
shopmen's strike in 1922
The equipment Is now in good
order. and the roads are well supplied
with rolling stock. as shown BY the
prompt movement of the largest
volume OF traffic ever handled. /, is
not to be expected that their expen-
ditures this year for the same pur-
poses gill be as large as last year.
but they have a great amount OF
work under contemplation. to be

have announced programs that have
been definitely adopted. Forecasts

The review estimates that on Jan
uary |. 1922. the deficit in buildins
expenditures resulting from the wal
was S6.363.OO0.OOO. that this was re
duced in 1922 by Sl.7S5.OOOO0O. anC
in 1923 by S2.6l7900.0OO leaving :

1924 is estimated at S4.S35.o35.O0O OF
which amount $3.i25.OOO0OO will re-
present the normal requirements for
population growth leaving an I'M
covered deficit At the end OF the year
Bradsireet's reports do not estimate
the total operations. but give the
building permits granted in the prin-
cipal cities for ordinary house. office
store and factory construction in the
last five years.
Five cities OF the country report
expenditures in excess OF 100000
600. and these five cities show in
creases or decreases as compared with
1922.
\ little more than one-half OF the
construction was in these FIVE cities.
There was a falling off OF permits
during the summer but an increase
IN the last three months OF the year.
which together with activity in new
operations gives strong promise of
large expenditures this year. Build
ing contracts awarded in p north
eastern states in December. as report
ed by the F. W. Dodge Corporation
were p per cent larger than in De-
cember. 1922. Winter work is on
larger scale than ever before. In
New York City wages in the build
ing trades have been advanced 50
'ents per day under an agreement
'unning two years Building mate
ials are slightly lower than in the
spring OF 1923. Over the country
building costs probably will

mon talk after the war that the stee
industry had been expanded beyond
probable needs for ten years or more
but a number OF the leading COM
panies have been charging since then.
and the u. 5. Steel Corporation has
planned Sl5.OOO.OOO of the capital ex-
penditureS in 1924.
The very condition which is the
chief cause OF uneasiness. the high
scale OF industrial costs. like the
house rents, is a stimulus to some
forms OF industrial expenditure. 1t is

General Business Expansion

The general run OF business will
be affected largely by the outlays
in these two lines, for building and
for the railroads. They affect en-
ployment so generally and are so
influential upon sentiment that they
make the pace TO which others con-
form. In neither case is there quite
the necessity for activity that there
was a year ago. but in both cases
the needs ar still above normal.

evidence OF there confidence in the
future by adopting plans for in

ity; it has been made to cover myth
and miracle; the acceptance of va
scheme of salvation repugnant to the
moral sense; even belief in a Jonah
story. In the name of faith the ig-
norance of childhood has been ex-
tolled and the researches of science
anathamatized.
Science is the great teacher of
faith. 1t. confronts the world with
the faith that it is Ineligible; that
what has been true will be true; that
a law Of nature once discovered will
never be revoked that matter is in
destructible and force persists. None
of these things can be proved They
must be accepted on faith, but a
faith that never runs counter to rea-
son.

Moore to Do $50 Big"

Colleen Moore has been spending
the past two weeks in preparation
for her characterization in $50 Big. -
which will be her next and initial
starring picture for First National.
The perturbation will follow the
story closely, running through the
entire life of a woman from a very
young girl to old age. Miss Moore
will play four distinct periods in the
life of every woman. and every day
sees her before the camera testing
her different makeup for each role.
The story is by Edna Ferber and the
picture will be made under the di-
rection of Charles Brabin.
