The war stimulus, an augmented

The future building demand, Mr..

largely by the rate Of economic
expansion and improvement In ma

Mr.. Coyne was on the program
of a luncheon meeting of building
conference sponsored by the Cham
ber of Commerce Of the United
States. Earlier the conference was
told increased building activity may
be anticipated for the coming year.
Clyde Shute, manager of the sta
tistical department, F. w. Dodge
Corp, predicted an increase of
500, 100000 in private nonresident
tial building in 1910 to meet the
needs of expanding business.
The speaker said his estimate OF
the probable expenditures next year
is conservative.

tanned for several years at rate
of $4,000, 600, 900 to $4,000, ,00o, 900
annually.
They estimated that all construc-
ton for 1899, including maintenance
and work relief, would probably ex-
ceed $500, 100000. But it was un-
likely, the analysts added, that the
$14 ,OO0, 900 900 volume attained for
the industry between 1926 and 1925
would be equalled in the immediate
future.
Constrasting with the increase in
private non-residential building, Mr.
Shute was of the opinion public
non-residential building will de-
crease by about $73,00O,00O leaving
a net gain of about $l7,ooo,ooo, OF
an increase of not quite 3 per cent
for the estimated gain in building
next year over the present year.

cause do not want any past action
to hamper my present action.
Laughter.) So Mr.. President,
whether voted for the Silver
Purchase Act or voted against it
is immaterial; the law has proved
to be failure. Why, then, continue
that which we know to be failure,
and which costs SO for every 81
we pay?
The time has come for the Unit
ed States to hold her own. We
are not seeking to extend our
dominions. Soon enough some in
cident will take place in the Orient,
soon enough some incident will take
place somewhere which will excite
the people, and tremendous pro-
paganda will be put upon US in
an effort to induce us to enter
some conflict on the side OF
humanity" or on the side Of
liberty"
Mr. President, I do not know
that anyone will design to pay at
tenion to my record, though | de-
sire to be known as man not
lacking in friendship for the things
that are right and which make for
peace among the nations. But If the
nations of Europe and of the Orient
believed they could get no ad-
vantage from the United States,
if they knew they would be re-
quired to pay their debts, they
would become our friends. We re-
spect the man who makes us pay
our bills. II we make a man pay
his bills, he respects US, and If
we continue to permit the sort OF
treatment we have been receiving
from our foreign debtors. we will
no longer respect ourselves.
Therefore, Mr.. President, l hope
the amendment proposed by the
Senator from Delaware (Mr.
Townsend) will be agreed to. The
amendment is proposed by a Re-
publican. Is 1t possible that l, a
