It has caused men to be laid off work. It has kept others at work longer than they expected. And the Jong streak of mild win- ters has led many to wonder if the climate is changing. If it is, industry, agriculture and transportation will all be affected. Some. industries and crops will move farther north. Some ports will boom, Other regions may get too hot and too dry to support ‘their present industries and crops. And the way Americans live will change—their food habits, clothing ee housing and heating It’s too soon to do more than speculate about a general warm- ing up of the climate. But re- cently the winters have been warmer in the northeastern and southern parts of the United States and a little colder in the north- west and along the Pacific Coast. This winter’s mild temperatures in the Northeast have been a blow to the oil industry which had counted a bigger demand for fuel oil. Warm weather has added to the troubles of the coal industry.

Some women may be waiting to see if Congress cuts the tax on fur coats, Some husbands may have grown hard to handle, too. Expectations|- of a business downturn causes a man to think twice before putting up the dough for big-ticket items like furs, When customers grow balky, bad business works its way back from the store to the factory to the raw materials, Poor sales of outerwear and heavy winter clothing have affect- ed factory output. A company that makes leather liners for heavy clothing laid off most of its em- Ployes this week, blaming poor demand because of the mild win- ter. A maker of galoshes and rub- bers has laid off a large part of its work force, because people don’t buy these products until the weather gets nasty. In time this could work back to the primary producers—the wool growers, the hide industry, the rubber industry. The mild winter might even af- fect the sale of sweaters, self-sufficient, with production tot- alling about two dozen a week for every family in the stage.
