A quick survey of accepted indices
which are available indicates that
ratio probably exists today although
demand for personal and domestic
service had shown a marked increase
over last year.
Flanner House, which places many
domestics, has records of placement
to show that there has been a steady
increase in situations each month
this year over the corresponding
month last.
Mechanical and industrial situa-
tions have not increased over last
year, records of the indianapolis
Chamber of Commerce indicate.
Their survey Of the pay rolls of
so industries shows few less en-
ployed for corresponding months Of
the two years. Likewise it is as

were most numerous of all transpCr-

However, there should be con-
siderable number of the more than

now Building permits in March,
1884. called for construction to cost
s79,959. whereas in March Of this
year they were 10 cost S182,553. This
probably shows concretely that the
