CONSTRUCTION AND RECOVERY

The Importance OF the construction industry, as an
employer of ordinary and skilled labor and as a stimula-
tor Of all manner Of other industries, is wildly illustrated
in statistics published in a recent editorial Ill the Aneri-
can Builder.
In the years between 1928 and 1926, inclusive, home
construction. (Which amounts to a little more than fifty
pr cent of the construction industry as a whole in normal
times) was a four billion dollar business. 1t gave employ
ment to several million men actually employed in build
ing, and to as many more in factories, mines and forests
supplying necessary materials. Employment was nicely
balanced between large cities, small and medium sized
towns and rural areas.
In 1929 onetenth Of all gainfully employed workers
were engaged in construction. And in 1880, when census
figures were taken, there were 167, 500 builders and build
ing contractors, 929,400 carpenters, and 34,070 lumber
and building material dealers. There were likewise $4,000
architects, 33,700 designers, 10000 brick and stone ma
sons, 100000 painters and glaciers, and 240.O00 real es-
tate agents.
The nations normal requirement, to quote the Amer
lean Builder again, is 100000 new homes each year. At
the moment, a tremendous housing deficit existst, due to
the almost entire lack of building, particularly in the low
and middle cost field, during the past four years, and the
abnormally high rates Of depreciation and obsolescence
caused by insufficient repair and maintenance. Aggres-
sive efforts are now being made to speed home building
by making financing cheaper and easier. Success of such
a movement is essential to recovery.

DEBT CERTIFICATES GROW

A question which will shortly arise in this country
is this: In spending public money for relief and recovery
activities, Where does the point Of diminishing return &C.
cur?
In other words, it is possible to reach a point where
the best lntentioned activities, simply because of their
cost to businesses and individuals, defeat the ends thew
are designed to further.
The public debt will be the greatest in history by June
80, next, and climb steadily to June 80, 1885, according 70
present program, when a halt is contemplated. The esti-
mated total Federal debt will then be about $31, OO0,OOO,
900.
States and municipalities are similarly burdened.
Their position is worse because their credit is obviously
much less solid than is that of the Federal government.
They have spent, collectively, untold billions-with slight
idea Of how the money will be repaid. They have fright
ened investors, property owners, prospective builders of
homes and factories and stores. They will suffer for it
accordingly-as will workers, taxpayers and the entire
public.
When Mr.. Roosevelt said that, unless something e-
occurred, he meant to begin reducing indebt-
edness within a year, as all expenditures necessary to his
policies would have been made, overwhelming public a-
proval greeted him. That shows which way the wind
blows. All branches Of government, down to the smallest
hamlet in the land, should take decisive steps to reduce
public debt and eliminate the fear Of taxation which is
rapidly becoming coniscation.

FIRE PROTECTION FOR MERCHANTS

Hundreds Of merchants from all parts of the United
States had a splendid opportunity to visualize the protec-
ton offered them by stock company fire insurance when
they viewed the exhibit of the National Board Of Fire
Underwriters at the recent National Retail Dry Goods
Associations twenty-third annual convention.
The exhibit, occupying two large booths, pointed out
that engineering and inspection service for holders of
stock policies is available everywhere, for all classes Of
property. Accompanying this was a list of the many
types Of insurance written to fit every conceivable COM
mercial need. Fire, lightning, tornado and damage by
other elements; consequential loss insurance covering
rentals, use and occupancy, and SO on; inland marine in
surance covering loss in transit and innumerable risks
these and many other types of essential coverage are Of
fered. To make the exhibit more vivid, moving pictures
of the Underwriters Laboratories were shown, giving
convention attendants a complete visual knowledge Of the
services the stock companies render.
Merchants are but one class Of business men who are
saved millions Of dollars every year through the work Of
the stock fire insurance industry in Waging an unremit-
ting fight for better building codes, more. efficient NUM-
cipal fire equipment and water alarm systems, and in pro-
noting many activities designed to lessen fire hazards.
Industrialists, farmers, home owners-all are greatly
benefited by such fire prevention and service work.

THE CO-OPS GROW

operative associations during the past few Tears-consti-
tutes on of the hopeful factors in the agricultural situa-
ton" says the Dairymen's League News editorially.
There are now more than II, 900 cooperative assoc
lions actively engaged in business in the United States.
The dollar volume of business of these cooperatives last
year is placed at $780, 100000
Emphasis is everywhere being directed toward
Strengthening the organization structure, management,
and financial positions Of existing cooperative ~associa-
tons and in assisting associations inadequately organ

indirect tribute to the wisdom, FORESIGHT and plain good
sense Of the average American farmer. During depres-
sion a number Of the better co-ops, dealing in cotton, dairy
products and other goods, have shown what aggressive
organizations can do for their members. The steady,
accelerating growth Of the cooperative movement is one
Of the brightest signs Of recovery.

PROTEST GAINS PUBLIC DESTRUCTION OF
PROPERTY

The Board of Directors of the Illinois Manufacturers
Association has adopted a resolution Of more than ordi-
nary significance. In it they protested the use Of federal
funds for the construction Of publicly-owned utilities to
compete with private plants, and called upon the Public
Works Administration to change its policy.
The protest is based upon purely business grounds.
In the opinion of the Association, construction Of a tax
free plant alongside Of a privately owned plant, under
mines investments and menaces employment. 1t tends TO
increase taxes for all other types Of property, and gives
the users of municipal power an unfair financial advan-
tage over users Of private power. And, to cinch the ar
gument, the Association states that municipaly-owne
plants cost more to operate, charge higher average rates
to consumers, increase the public debt, and impair MUM
cipal credit. Storekeepers, farmers, wage earners, pro-
fessional men, persons receiving their income from any
source-all are threatened with the loss Of part of their
income when municipal ownership appears.
The Illinois Manufacturers Association consists OF
experienced, realistic business men. They own factories
of all kinds, and employ workers of all types. They are
fully conversant with power costs, with taxation, with
working conditions and employment. Their protest a.
gainst use of public funds to destroy businesses upon
which the public treasury depends for much revenue,
should receive serious consideration.

TRANSPORTATION BEFORE CONGRESS

Within the next few months the Congress will con-
slider changes and additions to the laws governing regu-
lation of our transportation agencies. It's a matter which
deserves the greatest interest not only of every legislator
and public official, but every citizen who is interested in
his country's future.
The railroads will come before Congress with a very
modest request. Briefly it is this: That equality of reg
ulation be extended to all forms Of transportation, and
that all be considered part of a unified system in which
each will serve the public to the best of its capabilities,
rather than as separate entities accorded divergent legal
treatment. That is certainly about as logical a program
as anyone could desire.
The railroads are still the most important gear in the
transport machine-and they're getting the least grease.
Minimum rates are established for them-and they are
not allowed to make reductions even though highway car
riers and waterways parallel their lines and provide
transport at a much cheaper price. Before they can make
any rate changes whatsoever they must give 80 days no
tice-while their competitors can make changes over
night, and a dozen times a day, without notifying anyone.
The rails will ask that these two provisions Of the
law, along with similar restrictions which have made it
impossible for them to meet increasing and PARTLY sub
sidized competition, be changed. They will ask that all
transport regulation be handled by a central agency, pre-
ferably the Interstate Commerce Commission, which has
been in existence for decades, knows transport problems
intimately and has an expert organization built up. IF the
changes are made, as most observers believe they will be,
it will be to the interest Of all investors, all workers, all
citizens.

LAUGH THIS OFF

The Quinquennial Report Of the Bureau Of the Cen
sus Of Electrical Industries for 1892 is out. It's a rather
embarrassing document to whooperups for municipal
ownership.
Like all government reports, it is terse, casual and it
sticks to the facts. It doesn't deal with theory-it doesn't
favor either side Of the argument. It simply tells what
happened. And the facts, in this case, speak volumes.
In 1892 there were 1902 municipal plants in the coun-
try, and 1927 private plants. The municipal plants
charged an average of 81 cents per kilowatt hour for all
power sold by them. The private companies charged 2.7|
cents.
Between 1927 and 1892 the rates Of private utilities
were redcced 10 per cent. The rates Of municipal plants
were reduced AS per cent.
Municipal plants, according to the report, have done
little in developing farm service. The vast majority Of
rural identification projects have been carried on and
developed by private utilities.
Municipal plants, in 1892, charged an average Of Sc
cents per kilowatt hour for farm service. Private plants
charged 28 cents-almost exactly the same rate as their
average for all types of consumers.
And to all this it should be added that the private
utility pays out about II per cent Of gross revenues for
taxes-and municipal plants pay nothing at all.
These are cold, hard relentless facts that every citi-
zen should know. They require no comment. It is going
to be interesting to watch the enemies Of private enter
prise and private Investment attempt to laugh them off.

EDITORIAL
AMERICAN HIGHWAYS A SHAMELESS

A recent release of the National Safety Council
points out that laws to control pedestrians on streets and
highways may be necessary, unless walkers themselves
take steps to eliminate the pedestrian hazard.
In an average year about one half of all automobile
deaths are suffered by pedestrians. And, contrary to the
general belief, the pedestrian is not an innocent bystander
run down by a Machiavellian motorist. He is, in a great
number of cases where death or serious injury results,
solely to blame.
Larger cities, for the most part, have laws against
jay-walking-the practice of crossing streets against the
signal bells or lights. Smaller towns may be called upon
to pass similar legislation-pedestrian carelessness isn't
limited to the metropolitan centers. Again, thousands of
accidents are caused by pedestrians walking on the right
on highways and roads, where they can't see cars coming
up behind them. It is being urged that this ofense be
made punishable by a fine, precisely as fines are levied
against an automobile operator guilty of driving on the
wrong side of the road.
There is great need for unremitting, concentrated
educational work against automobile accidents, moderni-
zation Of driving laws, and law enforcement. The Amer
lean highway is a shambles-over $4,000 killed in 1888
where the reckless, the incompetent and the careless

is actually cheaper than usual.

It is the belief Of many that the essential thing Is the
establishment Of a definite relation in the values Of gold
and silver-so that when gold goes up or down, the value
Of silver will automatically follow. They believe that only
in this way can foreign trade be really stimulated, and
our lost commerce regained.
This theory, Of course, las its expert opponents. pre-
cisely as it has its expert advocates. That is an excellent
thing-the debate will bring it before the public, and
widen our general knowledge of the whole question of
money. It is something for every citizen to watch.

NEXT STEP

The Presidential proclamation fixing the price Of
silver at 6411a cents per ounce is, in the view Of q number
Of monetary experts, simply the first important step in
bringing the silver problem to a logical conclusion.
The 6415 cent price marks a definite advance over re
cent silver quotations. But during the last few months
there has been a jump in the value of gold of more than
fifty per cent, as part of the governments dollar devalua-
ton policy. The result is that silver, in relation to gold,
