''BIZZ AS USUAL"
Seems Due For Jolt, But
1927 Will Still Be
Good Year
BY International Labor News Service

By International Labor News Service.
New York City.-The inevitable
recession in business activity seems
to be on the cards just now. The gen
eral level of industry made further
gains last month, but there are mark
ed signs of a slackening, although
1927 will still be a good year.
Production in iron and steel and
automobiles has been slow in getting
back to full time. The volume of new
building projects is running under a
year ago. Mail order sales, the pulse
of the small consumers spending sys-
tenn, have fallen bit, the first drop
since 1924. Business insolvencies rose
sharply to the highest levels since
1922.
The National City Banks econo-
mists find encouragement, however,
in the absence of large stocks of any
kind and the need for replacement to
keep the wheels moving at more
normal rate. Money conditions are
most favorable for business.
Total building contracts awarded in
January were 16 per cent below that
of last January, but still one of the
largest months on record The lum-
ber business is backward, good
gauge on building construction.
Generally it appears as if business
is taking in sail to be ready for more
stormy weather.

Powell people any other phase of
help that his office might render,
mentioning the efforts in behalf of
the wildwood that the state de-
partment of commerce and industry
was endeayoring to render in a

farm loans and the generally i'm
proved conditions noticed in the
Powell country that the Governor
and Mr.. Cox dwelt upon at an In
formal meeting of a score of farm
ers and business men at the Bad
ger club room. He said that Just
as soon as the federal government
has attended to the detail of rails
ing its lien on these farms under
the ~Shoshone irrigation district
that there would be much state
money coming to this valley in
the way of farm loans. as the de-
tails SO far as Mr.. Cox's office were
concerned had been sufficiently at
tended to and the loans approved.
Governor Emerson, as well as
Mr.. Cox. was f~avorably impressed
with the agricultural progress of
the Shoshone valley, noting with
pleasure the definite announcement
from the headquarters of the Great
Western Sugar company that it
intended in due course of time to
construct another of it's factories
at Powell.

DEMAR IS WINNER
 IN GREAT CONTEST
(Continued From First Page)

At Wellesley Square. two miles farther along. a throng of Wellesley college girls watched De Mar flash by in undisputed lead. His time was 1:1S. Henigan was close behind, followed in order by Kari koski. Fagerlund and Sllas Mcclellan, Windsor, N. s.
 Bill Kennedy. the Port Chester, \. Y., bricklayer. who won the 1917 marathon. was in tenth place at Wellesley. The time up to this point indicated that there was little probability of the winner beating Miles time of last year. especially in view Of the l76 yards added by remeasurement of the course.
 Coastng down the long hill to Newton Lower Falls Andulong to the Woodland Park hotel. where the runners turned into the Newton boulevard for heart -brea king climb. the veteran Demar main- tained his lead. His time at Wood land Park was I:39:ol. Henigan had dropped back and Karl koski had come up Into second place. half a minute behind Demar. Kennedy was third. Fagerlund fourth and Carl Under Boston, fifth.
 The ling climb. and dcscents on the Newton Hills failed 10 check Demar and he was so far ahead at Lake street, about five mile. from the finish that the second man was not In sight.
 Demar's time to Lake street was e;oT:S4.
 Demar, sponge in hi. hand and a handkerchief over his head, passed the Hotel ReaconsHnld. a mile and a half farther along at c:ls.
 koskt lost another half minute 10 Demar 10 this point. but was rum ming strong and far ahead Of the rest o' the field.
 Kennedy finally showed up at Lake street In third place Il min ute> behind De Mar and was fol. lowed by Bricker and Linder. At Coolidge corner, less than three miles from the finish De Mar was maintaining his lead over Koski.
 Johnny Miles father and mother arrived at the R. A. A. club house at about c:!5, expecting to see their son conia in at the head of the pack. They were surprised 10 hear that he had dropped out early in the raca.

Denial Of the truth Of an article

Denial Of the truth Of an article he said he read in q newspaper pub lished in this vicinity recently that New England is losing industries almost every day. was made today by Joseph M. Ward. president of the kiwanis club. in an address de- livered to the Lions club.
 Mir Ward spoke on q sense Of local responsibility and civic inter- est and stressed the fact that New England is progressing all tho time. despite statements 10 the contrary.
 He said q former Chamber Of Commerce secretary in nearby city once told him his chief job was to keep new industries out os the city,
 He spoke of the textile industry, stating that the falling off in that business is because women are not wearing go many clothes. and what they do wear can be seen through.
 He showed that New England Is far ahead of the rest Of the country tn the textile industry. The per capita wealth In Connecticut he said is s3,soo.
 Speaking Of abandoned farms In Connecticut, Mir. Ward stated that there Is no state In the country where abandoned farms cannot be found. He called attention to the abandoned factory in Plainville and compared 1t to the Trumbull Elec- tric plant. showing that while one industry was dying out, probably for some individual reason. a bigger and more important one was growing and developing rapidly.
 He spoke of New England's move ment for additional power facilities. and of hundreds of thousands of dollars to be spent throughout the south and vest advertising New England. especially Vermont and Maine.
 He quoted figures to shcv that the increase of new industries In the south of 300 per cent as compared to 70 per cent increase in Connecti- cut, does not mean anything. Its easy to show percentage when you start with nothing" he said. He ex. plained the figure by saying that q man who put dollar in the bank, and a year later added another dol lar, would have a larger percentage than the man who put &1o.ooo in and year later added $500.
 He said there Is less money left in industrial failures in New Eng land than anywhere else in the country.
