Everything will go well with the patient if he does not try to get out of bed too soon If he tries to overdo he will have a relapse. We have now past the most painful part of the readjustment. The crisis is over, but a process of cost reduction and re-balancing si necessary.” Price Spread is Wide “Today a wide disparity exists between prices of different com- modities, and particularly the spread between producers, and consumers’ goods. This is a brake on trade. One half of the people cannot earn enough to buy the goods that the other half has to sell. There are one hundred and six million people in the United States and fifty per cent of them get their living from pro- ducing or distributing raw materials. It has thus far been impossible to reduce the prices of finished con- sumers’ goods to meet the cuts on He is a' peer of the United Kingdom as well! trial concerns lost money on their year’s business. 1922 has witnessed a change from red ink into black figures, but the amount of net pro- | fits will not be large when the books are finally balanced. We are just getting onto the right side of the +ledger. “The shortage of labor is one of the worst features of the 1923 out- look. The moment that business works up to average activity it be_ comes impossible to get sufficient workers. This raises cbsts and in turn increases commodity prices and the cost of living. The immigration law is largely the cause of this shortage. The law restricts the num- ber of immigrants in a single year to 3' per cent of the total number of respective nationalities in the United States. Before the war we had an addition of a milliom of im- migrants a year. Now we are receiv- ing less than 300,000 and at least 60 per cent of these are women children or dependents. On the other hand, I doubt if the repeal of this 3 per cent Immigration Law is the proper solution of the present labor shortage. “The recl solution is not the re- peal of the present immigration law but rather the repeal of the Con- tract Labor Law for as long a per- !iod as the 3 per cent law remains in force. This would meke it possible for employers to promise selected foreign workers employment before leaving their homes. The moment that the immigration law is repealed the Contract Labor Law can again be applied.” S O —— GILBERT BROS. Auto Painting Co. Let us paint or refinish your car.
