No appreciable decrease in the cost of living can be expected as long as superficial ‘factors' are dealt with. High prices.of manufactured prod- ucts generally reflect either high prices for raw materials or lack of or- ganization in transportation and dis- tribution. ‘An effective policy ‘must suart in with land, from which the “extractive” mdustrxes draw raw ma- terials, and must follow the subse- quent industrial processes clear through to the consumer. Coupled with this must be changes in the “dis- tributive” industries so that products will flow smoothly from “land to men.” A substantial increase in production is unhkely, says the report so long as the average wage-earner in unemploy- ed 20 per cent of the time and 50 per cent of our land and natural resources are unused. A scheme for bringing together these potential prodfictxve factors is presented.

Economic waste can be minimiz- ed by a proper organization of forests and mines. The lumber industry is not yet one of forestry or “timber culture,” as in Europe; it is still one of “timber.mining.” It is a-tramp industry and therefore a breeder’ of tramps. .

Their recent development as an eco- nomic pest is due to the change from the natural vegetation in the western states to cultivated food plants. Wheat, barley and rye are the pre- ferred food plants ‘of the grain bug, but it also feeds on other cereals and on cabbage, cotton, peas, beans, toma- toes and lettuce, in addition to many native plants. Weather influences and the work of parasites in each locality where damage has occurred generally have restricted the destructive out- breaks of grain bugs to periodic inter- vals of two or three years. The heads of small grains that have been mJured by this pest are conspicu- ous in the field, especially those of - Buy Your Tires at OEALERS COST PRICES! 7500-Mile Guarantee] | Sentrm%rxlnmeeghon.
