The next year, however, you will see a great increase in rents thruout the country. As soon as this increase in rents takes place, builders may stampede each other (o construct more houses. Wise are those who build now, before this stampede takes place. This is all In addition to the fact that, the dollar of today is worth only 50 cents, and we all apt to fool ourselves when we talk in terms of prices and wages.

Stomoch Trouble Or Money Back INSTANT Bi 1 GUARANTEED WASHINGTON: STATE DE Recently a writer on the treatment of stomach troubles, who has claimed that practically all stomach trouble is due to idity, decided to put his theory to the teat. Every sufferer from stomach trouble was told to take a teaspoonful of pure Bi-nesia or two or three of the 5- rain tablets in a little water imme- jately after eating or whenever pain was felt. The test completely Vindicated his theory; for immedi- UP, EXPERT WARNS Director General, Information and Education Service, Department of Labor THE SEATTLE STAR—WEDNESDAY, JULY 9, 1919. E T0 G0 W.

It is my opinion that in gen. eral, the same conclusion that we have reached with regard to mater jal, men and contractors, applies to building trades labor, that is, that the demands of building trades la- bor in 1919 will be reasonable. Therefore, my advice is “BUILD now" | The department of labor is making | strenuous efforts to revive public and private building and construc tion development of all kinds. A special division has been created for the purpose.

Here’s the reason why: ” The entire country faces a coal shortage. Coal production is falling behind at During the war immigration was halted by the government. This stopped the influx of coal miners from foreign countries. #rom month to month the labor situation in the coal mining districts has grown more Though peace came, the bars are still up against immigration into the United States, yet the. bars are down for foreign-born residents of the United States who want to go home. Consequently thousands of coal miners are preparing -to visit their homes across the water. Countless numbers of them will there on the money they have earned over here. Strenuous efforts are being made to increase coal production, but the records show. a weekly drop of 30 per cent in production over the corresponding period a year The public does not understand the situation.
