WELLESLEY HILLS, Mass., May 12.—The radical recovery of com- Modity prices from August, 1921, to date, has brought general business above average and is the foundation for the soning of a good many redicted increasing prices through 1923. Therefore, Roger W.) Babson's statement on the situation, issued today, is of unusual interest “There have been five major move-| ments {n commodity prices since the { the World war,” s “First, we had a great arly 1915 to the peak in 8. Immediately at the c e war prices suffered a sentimental decline. Then post-war inflation caused a steady rise from the spring of 1919 to the middle of 1920. re odity panic in economic history carried us over the middle of*1920 to the low of August, 1921. The fifth phase of the movement has been a 19 months’ rise during which time prices have climbed over 30 per cent an abnormal development. : “The reasons for this recent up- swing give us some indication as to {ts probable development.

The upward trend of the stock market and new con- struction figures add two more argu- ments on the bullish side of the ledger. “The present technical position of the community. market, however, is very similar to that of 1920.

The variety of effects which may be obtained with common brick by the use of different mortar joints is another surprising thing to the inexperienced. Variety of effects, beauty of construction and the low cost of common brick make it an ideal material for home building.
