Figures
What They Mean
BY A. A. PATTON,
Associated Press Statisticiau.

NEW YORK, June 22.-Residential
building Is being nominated by a
growing number Of economists as the
most likely candidate to lead industry
out OF its current slump.
A recent study by Moody's In
vestors' Service pointed out that
whereas steel operations are stum-
bling along 81 per cent below the
comparable level year ago, with
automobile output 66 per cent lower
carloadings 30 per cent of and elec-
trio power IL per cent behind 1897,
home construction hovers close to
last years totals.
Although contracts awarded for res
idential construction normally reach
a seasonal peak in mid-April, a strong
contra seasonal trend carried the up
swing through May
Recovery Is Slow.
One Of the most severely depressed
of all major industries during the
previous depression period-dropping
to bare 10 per cent of 1929 levels
building was slow getting under way
AS late as January, 1885, when other
industries had recovered sharply from
depression figures, residential build
ing was only fractionally above the
bottom.
Population growth and normal de-
terioration of existing structures over
period Of years therefore created q
real shortage of residential space.
The fact rents have fallen but little
from the high levels attained last
year and the stimulus of liberalized
Federal Housing Administration loans
requiring down payments of as lit
tie as 10 per cent-have encouraged
people to build rather than bid for
available space
The relatively sharp decline in
building costs has also contributed
to the readiness of individuals to
build. The United States Bureau of
Labor Statistics building material in
dex recently dipped to 9o4 from 971
a year ago.
Advances Steadily.
For more than three months home
building has pushed steadily upward
against the declining trend of in
dustry generally. In February the
Associated Press index, weighted for
cost and seasonal variations, touched
bottom and has since risen third
During the same period the industrial
activity index dropped about 6 per
cent, hitting new low for the veal
in the last week of May.
That the current upSurge is ne
fash in the pan is seen by analysts
in the fact building for owner occu-
pancy during the first five months
this year compared. more favorably
with 1897 than dwellings built for
sale or rent.
The importance Of revival in the
construction trades to the economy
of the country as a whole is vast
The machine has made few inroads
into this highly unionized field, sc
that a substantial pickup in activity
leads Immediately to the hiring Of
thousands of men.
1t also consumes huge amounts OF
many of the country's most important
raw materials. Lumber, cement
glass, steel products and hundreds OF
other commodities are fed into the
NAV of this gigantic industry, sc
that recovery in building leads in
directly to better business for afhli-
ated enterprises.

State Employment Service

Continuing their increased bus
mess with private employers, the
fourteen officers of the Maryland
State Employment Service filled SAT
private jobs last week. This means
that 80 more men and women left
the ranks of the unemployed for
jobs in private industry last week
than the week before.
Those facts are particularly en-
eouraging just now, for the first full
week of September failed to show
the normal seasonal increase which
had been expected. However, both
of the last two weeks have yielded
satisfactory numbers of jobs filed
with private employers, and the out
look for the entire month ia not now
bad.
Moreover, even the Services bus
mess with public contractors is on
the up-swing. During the first full
week during September, only 127
jobs we're filed on public projects.
This figure increased to 1873 during
the second week and then last week
jumped up to 204.
The marked rise in jobs filed for
private employers last week was due
almost entirely to the increase ac-
tivity in the Baltimore City office.
Here the private jobs filed rose from
274 to 355, but elsewhere in the
state business of this kind continued
at about the same level as the prev
ious week.
However, the following increases
in the number of private jobs filed
were reported from these seven Of
fees: in Annapolis the figure rose
from % to "a, in Cambridge from
Is to 16, in Frederick from % to
80, in Hyattsville from 10 to 10, in
Salisbury from II to 25, in Towson

North East Bond Case

The demurrer filed by E. D. E.
Rollins, counsel for the Board of
town Commissioners of North East
in the injunction suit to upset the
100000 bond issue recently voted in
the town, has been overruled by the
Circuit Court at Elkton.
4 The plaintiffs, Harry L. Harvey,
Charles C. Bayard, S. Jesse Crouch
and James L. Armour, recently filed
a petition in the court asking for
an injunction to restain the defen-
dants form issuing 100000 in bonds,
was to be used towards building a
water system and sewers in the
town.
At a special election held in North
East, several weeks ago, the bond
question was submitted to the voters
and approved by about 35 majority,
after a bitter contest.
1t is alleged that the Board of
Town Commissioners exceeded its
authority in calling special regis
tration and special election to de-
eide the question.
After overruling the demurrer, the
court gave 10 days to the defendants
in which to file an answer to the
petition filed for an injunction.
The work was to have been done
under WPA, which would have
given the town As per cent of the
cost of the project.
