CAPE COD CAMPAIGN
BOON TO BUSINESS
Real Estate Gain Is 25 Per Cent
After Advertising
Drive.

Cape Cod, Massachusetts,, has Just
closed a cooperative campaign that
resulted in an average increase of
business Of ~ per cent to organiza-
tions of all types, and an increase to
the real-estate business of IS per
cent.
What 500 business organizations, in
cluding all members Of the Cape Cod
Real Estate Board. we're able do to pull
themselves out of the red, presents
ideas that could be used in other
recreational areas and by local real
estate boards, according to Elisabeth
Shoemaker of Chicago, director of the
campaign known as the Cape Cod
Advancement Plan.
The Cape lives by the Summer Wis
istor, who patronizes hotels, rooming
houses, inns and furnished homes.
Members Of the Cape Cod Real Estate
Board live by sales of leased homes
for permanent or Summer occupancy
to families, who become enamored of
their Cape Cod cottages. All busi-
nesses, including rentals, began to
decline flve years ago in the 143 towns
and villages that comprise this area.
Al-time lows were experienced in
1893.
i believe similar campaigns Of in
stitutional advertising of home own
ership and hotel advantages, said
Miss Shoemaker. could be made to
produce results for members of local
real estate boards in cities, as well as
in recreational areas"

MODERN|z|NG LIST
FORLOANSLARGER
Domestic Water Heater

The Federal Housing Administra-
ton through recent rulings has lifted

formerly could not be financed
through insured modernization loans
so as to include practically everything
which is built-in or permanently at
tached to the wiring. water or gas
system of the home, store, shop, fac
tory or farm house.
Originally all equipment had to be

has been doubt, but which are now
included in the eligible list without
qualification are the following:

together with valves and accessories,
are definitely included with radiation
equipment if part of the heating sys-
TEN. In addition to awnings, other
sun projections for windows and
porches also are included.

ginning. Concealed residential wall

PRICE Of LUMBER !.
SHOWS REDUCTION
Action of Code Authority
Has Direct Effect Upon
Market.

Evidence that the mid-July action
Of the lumber code authority in re-
ducing the industry's minimum cost
protection prices by 10 per cent had
a direct effect upon the lumber mar
ket is seen in the preliminary August
report of the United States Bureau
of Labor Statistics, which shows lum-
ber prices at level of 81.6 per cent
of 1926 levels, as against s6.2 in June
and 85.3 in July.
This reduction had q marked effect
upon the average for all building ma
terials, which dropped from 87.8 in
June to 81 in July and 858 in August.
Other factors which contributed to
the average figure for all building
materials were brick and tile, which
rose from 91.1 in June to 9l.3 for July
and August; cement, which has re-
manned at 939 for the three months,
and structural steel, which dropped
from 94.5 in June to 92.5 in July and
90 in August. Paint and paint ma
terials dropped from 80.3 in June to
779 in July. but regained the major
portion OF this loss in August when
1t rose to 80. A similar movement is
noticed in plumbing and heating
prices, which went down from ISL
in June to 69.4 in July and recovered
to rs in August.
1t was pointed out by the National
Lumber Manufacturers Association
that the August figure for lumber.
818 as compared with 100 for 1926
rejecting drop from that year Of
1872 per cent is particularly signi1-
cant when 1t Is noted that average
hourly wage rates in the lumber man
ufacturing industry increased from

in June Of this year, or gain of

No injunctions are to be granted to anyone who has failed to carry out all his legal obliga- tions or failed to attempt settle- ment by use of conciliation ma chinery. There is still confusion on the injunction issue on account of the attitude of some state and local courts.
 The promise of the early years of the Wilson administration was in large part borne out by the World War. In 1913 a secretary of labor took his place at the cabinet table as one of the pres ident's advisers. Nearly all or- ganized labor, except that domi- mated by socialist and I. W. w. organizations. supported the war splendidly, partly from patriot ism, partly from a feeling that in this way labor could best be saved from the losses it suffered in most countries during the war.
 And 1t was right, for many of the policies set up by the war labor board were the forerun-
 
 In many ways, labor reached its highest point under the war
 labor board. Organization and collective bargaining rights dis couraged, but there was no pen- alty against them.
 The basic eight-hour day was reaffirm. with extra pay for overtime, and the principle of a living wage" was established.
 BOARD BACKS WORKERS The board made total of 490 awards, in all of which 1t insisted on reinstatement of workers dis charged for union activity. It for temporary shop committees in many organized plants set up by the War Labor Board set the pace for what became later regular la Dor organizations. On the whole, labor gained from the war, and the biggest gain was in the first really united attempt by the government to set down definite labor policies and definite national labor program. All this machiery fell apart al- most immediately after the war, and the pendulum swung back ward agaln. A wave or terrlnc strikes swept the country, and took off the job even more men than have walked out during the last year. OPEN SHOP DRIVE STARTS The company union movement got its start at this time, and the open shop drive was begun. Dur ing the twenties. however, consid- erable progress was made, especial ly in states. in legislation for workmen's compensation and vari- ous forms of social insurance. When the boom came to its top in. 1928, labor was sharing in the return of industry as never before; it may not have gotten fair share, but 1t was certainly getting a bigger share than ever before. With the crash came another low tide, and now once again, un- der the stimulus of the MIRA and other new labor legislation, labor surges forward. TOMORROW: The A.
