WEDNESDAY, SEPT. 20, 1922 We feel sure that the taxpayers of Union will feel better over "high taxes" when they consider the gTeat building: program that has been carried nit by the school management here. It also appears that the more wo build the more children come to be provided for. From what we observe the schools are filled to overflowing. This is a hopeful sign. The number of children now in the higher grades has increased and the prospect is that wo will hnvr murh lnrtror classes to complete the course. There should not be less than a hundred each year in the graduating class. Strikes disrupt the orderly business of the country and it is, therefore, a matter of satisfaction to the whole country that the strike is virtually at an end. Without attempting to fix the blame upon either side of the warring elements, we can truthfully say that it will be a good thing when strikes will cease. There is a better way for all concerned to settle their differences. The business of the country is well rid of the strike. The business of the country has to operate under the laws enacted for the conduct of business. It should be an easy matter to bring the railway workers and all other workers, together with their employers, under the regulation of law. Just laws, righteously enforced, would bring about all the adjustment that would ever be necessary. The public would then cease to be the goat in these periodic upheavals. BE A BULL ON AMERICA (Manufacturers Record, Baltimore, j Maryland) Bffftoire of dollars, not figuratively speakingr> but actually billions of real money, are going into construction work and vast industrial undertakings throughout the country. Railroads are beginning to order rolling stock more freely than for a long time, knowing that 'the revival of business now under way, despite strikes and other difficulties, will bring about a volume of traffic far beyond their present ability to handle. Hundreds of millions of dollars are going into the construction of highways, and the highway building of the country has scarcely begun a.-; compared with what we shall see during the next few years. During the first eight months of the present year there has been let to contract in the South new construction work aggregating, in the contract price, $367,000,000, not including thousands of dwellings and small enterprises costing less than $10,000 each, for in this calculation no account is taken of any building costing less than $10,000. The actual cost of all construction work generally largely exceeds directly or indirectly the contract price. Counting this and thousands of small dwellings which have been built since January 1, or are now under construction, the total of actual construction work would run far beyond $400,000,000. Of enterprises projected in the South since January 1, including hotels, office buildings, churches, schools, highway improvements and other enterprises for many of which contracts are being made as rapidly as the details can be worked out, the total is $735,000,000. This amount also does not include anything costing less than $10,000. ThpftP nmorinff fi nmrao o ? ? Kit* r> -6?*vi> ??*; >/uv yyy icai of what is going: on throughout the country, but the South, as the Manufacturers Record has constantly predicted, has been the first section to come back into increasing activity and the fullest utelization of its vast resources. With the enormous diversification of its agricultural interests, with its great fruit crops of the present season, with its people producing home supplies to a larger extent than for many years, with its coal mines and cotton mills and many other indus inai interests crowded, with vast water power projects under way involving the expenditure of many millions of dollars, with $6,000,000 goiijg into one sulphur development and $2,500,000 into one cement plant, both typical of what is taking place in many parts of this section, the Sou'h is moving forward to a broader and sounder prosperity than it has ever known, o longer will its prosperity depend upon one crop, as for many years. It is forever freed from that aaaanBeaneBBassaHMnp danger and now it moves forward on ( safe and sound lines for an industrial upbuilding, for a utilization of its matchless resources in soil and In minerals and in walur powers' a ad to a timbers, in its sulphur and in-ell, and t its marble and grftnttto, to toTSta of { prosperity surpassing anything it f his ever known. _ The time is rapidly eomlng When ( iubor will be fully employed through- , out the whole country, and no man t will have to seek in vain for work. When the Steel Corporation announced an advance of wages it made one of the wisest moves in the history of that great Corporation, wisely managed as it has been. Following its example other interests will of necessity have to pay higher wages, and this should be a matter of profound rejoicing on the part of nmnlnvsra orw) a a tirall u a amnlAVaaa Low wages are always a curse. They curse every country in which they prevail. India and China are fair samples of what low wages mean to a nation. High wages, which enable men to earn enough to live in comfort, are a blessing individually and nationally. We are tending to >i<?her wages, to full employment. The curse of the deflation of labor, i ;ke the curse of deflation of credit, has run its day. There is no longer room for the pessimist. His day is gone. Optimism, strong, virile optimism, should rule the land. Out of the turmoil of the hour in strikes there will come peace between employer and employee. Railroads will run, coal mines mines will be operated and the whole nation, more marvelously endowed with natural advantages than any other area on earth, will go forward to boundless prosperity.

Germany 1 ?niiig i To Prohibition ' Berlta, Sept, 1W.?(By the Assoc i* ed Ptees).?*etmerleans are taldn# in-active 900 in the m?nm?t to >ut Germany on the dry list, Runt neetinge held In various parts of ths ountry presented tpoktr* from Connecticut and Minnesota who de- ' tcribed the progreee of the prohibition movement in the United States. These gatherings have revealed a surprising amount of sentiment among me pcopie 1x1 i?vui m mio abolition of alcohol, it is assorted in a statement- by i5k Reinhard Streetcar, of Darmsstadt, president of the 1 committee conducting the campaign, . and former Hessian minister of ed- ' n cation. He expressed special surprise and 1 pleasure at the moderation and ab- 1 stinence now being shown by the 1 young men. The best sections of Germany's youth are against alcohol, Dr. Strecker said, and these no longer drink, or even smoke. He added: "Particular significance may be attached to this restraint on the part of German youths since it comes entirely on their own initiative, neither the church nor the school up to this time having taken the alcohol question seriously." He declared that need is the stem teacher which is gradually, but inevitably educating the Germans up to prohibition. In view of the prevailing high prices of necessities they were becoming more and more restive at seeing valuable foodstuffs going into the breweries and distilleries. The working man, too, was paying more attention to the question, realising that ever liter of beer he consumed would provide six hungry children each with a bowl of * barley soup. The prohibition movement's great- ? est success thus far, said Dr. Streck- 1 er, was the result of the straw vote < at Bielefeld, where 90 per cent of the voters endorsed It. This polling : was all the more noteworthy, he added, because it was based on the politi- 1 cal lists of qualified voters. How to economize in housework by replacing maids with vacuum cleaners, electric washing machines, and other labor saving devices is being impressed upon the women in the German capitol in a comprehen- 1 sive exhibition now in progress under the auspices of the Association of Housewives of Greater Berlin. The eight-hour day and other labor regulations have made servants a luxury in Berlin households. Hired help thus comes under the lash of the speakers at the meetings held in connection with the exposition, as well as the consumption of luxury ai titica, ouuii us impurvcu ^iwus, nuv included in the category of the necessities. <TUi <Wp?eciatie?v of^the mark baa left'German hone racing in thfr doldrums, from the owner's point of view at least, and reports are current that many stables are to be abandoned entirely, or else reduced. In efforts to stem the wave of financial pessimism which has hit racing circles, a number of culbs have made 1 attractive increases in the purses for the autumn events. The Steeplechase Association of Karlshorst is offering 6,400,000 marks for its 10-day program in October, after originally announcing that the total would be 3,101,000 marks. The money to be awarded on the day of the Grand Prix of Karlshorst is raised from 300,000 to 500,000 marks. New schedules announced by the Union Uluh and the Rerlin Rapine association for their Grunewald meetings during the coming few weeks show that the original pursees have been increased from 20,000 to 30,000 marks each. The Berlin Trotting Association also has materially raised its akards. The distressing position of the horse owners is declared to be due to the fact that the purses have not kept pace with the rate of exchange.

Without a very general anticipation such a development, the elec tion of Thomas G.

Ahern has this to aay about a foreman in an article in Intutorial Mtonagwant: "The boat foreman I oyer knew was a Bohemian who seldom said word in the shop, partly hesams ha talked with an accent. The tints he might have otherwise used in talking he turned over to his brains, and used them in thinking. And this is how he worked: "When you, as a new employee, first came into the shop, he heard your story as to what you could do looked you over, looked through you, and then gave you a piece of work which had certain processes of more or less difficulty. Then he forgot all about you until you brought the finished work to him. He looked it over; measured it. If it was extremely bad he would say. without any expression on his face: 'This is not very good.' Then for your next job he would set you roughing out about three-quarters of the stock on a casting for a jig, something that would not delight the heart of a mechanic. "If you brought him a finished piece that was fairly true to dimension but had a scratch on the surface, he would say nothing. But he would give you for your next job filing burrs from an endless multitude of milled pieces to teach you the value of smoothness. "Suppose the job he gave you was well done. . Then he would not say anything either; but your next job would be a little bit more difficult and of a little finer grade of work. This is what a mechanic wants. If he is an old hand at the business he wants to have his skill recognized by having you depend upon it for a higher class of work. If he is a new man or an apprentice he likes to have the opportunity to do better and better work so that he will learn all the quicker.
