From Nav to October, 1913, 1.-The

justmentS in order to meet the rapid
falling off of construction due to com
pletion of wartime facilities, shortage
of materials and lack of top planning.
the report of the planning committee
said, adding:
Despite the fact that the popular
impression has been created that there
are labor shortages, the electrical con
structon industry is faced with labor

1T is apparent" the report warned,
that until some channel can he devel-
oped by business in general In CON
junction with the government for I'M
plementing planning ideas, the elec-
trical construction industy Will face Il
kind of paralysis of the will, dangerous
in the extreme because events do not
wait.
THE present postwar unemployment
and lack of business in the electrical
construction industry Is dire warning
to other Industries Of what may happen

Miss Mooney said that some New

reluctant to send their children to the
centers and often older boys and girls
refuse to attend them, but go out into
the streets instead.
I'm most cases the day of a young
