UNCLE SAM SHOULD QUIT HIS BORROWING, SAYS BUSINESS EXPERT; LOWER TAX HOPE
i Following is the second of a series on current economic problems. East week Dr. Haney, tor the United Financial Service, discussed high living costs.) By DR. LEWIS HANEY. Director Bureau Business Research, New’ York University. NEW YORK, -March 26. —A week ago I began to look for the causes of our great industrial problems. The idea is that in these days of budding political platforms, we need to think about reaj remedies, and not be ted stray by catchy political phrases such as "16 to 1” and the “full dinner pall.’' We found that high prices are caused by large supplies of money and credit and that prices aj-e badly out of line, chiefly because the war brought overproduction of some things and underproduction of others. High wages ate also witli us. the average earnings of factory workers being more than 11*0 per cent over 1014. As prices of commodities continue PROSPECTS FOR BUSINESS GOOD Ropoit Asserts Building and Industrial Conditions Good, \ resume of general business rnnditions by Foster & Messick, managers ,f the United States Fidelity and Guaranty Company, offices in the Fletcher Savings and Trust building. says. An attempt t<> forecast business conditions is one which even present iv experts approach cautiously. In .January a quiet optimism as to 1023 prevailed. This was tempered hy caution arising out of conditions in Europe and the domestic political outlook. Recently, the upward movement of prices lias continued and it is generally conceded this upward movement will continue. “Perhaps the greatest hope in the I usint ss heart is for a reduction in ibe cost of the Government and a consequent decrease in taxes which constitute a burden every product must bear and distribute. Such distribution without injustice is difficult. The combination of taxes and various fomis of Governmental regulation causes many citizens to feel restive and much capital to avoid investment. "Increased business activity Is reflected in our business hy an Increased demand for contract or surety bonds, resulting from the greatest building operations the country has ever known. This volume of construction should continue. Material and labor prices are advancing an/1 the thinking man has concluded the peak of the market Is so fur ahead that now 1b the time to build.” CONSTRUCTION DELAYED Work on New Spink Apartment lb* H-l Await* Commission Ruling. On account of building lines l< he established In N. Meridian St., by the city plan commission, work on i, new apartment hotel at 2030 N Meridian St by the K. G. Spink Company will be delayed about two weeks. The plan commission tentatively set a line upon which the proposed structure would encroach. Tho builders held up operations to change the plans and will add another story to the building. The building will cost $500,000.

tc go up, we must expect the price of labor to advance. This tendency Is increased by the strength of organized labor and by the policy of restricted Immigration. If Wages Follow Prices Sound economic analysis shows a general advance in wages all along the line cannot cause advancing prices. If wages merely follow prices and cost of living, they cannot be considered the cause of the high prices. But high wages, maintained by strong labor organizations-, may affect the prices of some particular tiling, especially if that thing is very necessary and not very competitive. This is the case with railway transportation. Railway rates are fairly high, and they are probably some
MOTORIST MUST CARE FOR PISTONS, AUTO MAN SAYS F, W, Dennerline Also Calls Attention to Service in Wheel Replacement and Repairs,
Automobiles are built for the ex press purpose of providing road transportation at a rninparativ>T. high rate of speed at a reasonable cost. Whether the motorist is successfully able to get the nth degree of efficiency at the minimum cost out of his car, depends on a number of things not the least of which is the care tie gives it. F. W. Dennerline, manager of the Indiana Wheel and Rim I'ompany. to W. North St..'is of the opinion that too few motorists realize wlial constitutes the care of a car. "It is not enough that the car has gas and oil.” said Dennerline. "Each part of the motor and body should receive the proper Inspection and care. One of the most Important details often overlooked by oar owners is the condition ~f the pistons and pis ton rings. The expense of the oil and gas consumed by a car can often be considerably lessened by obtaining a
FISH PROTECTION BODIES FORMED Game and Forests Also Preserved by Organizations, Back in October, 1911, th<> first Indiana Fish, Game and Forest League was organized. Today in nearly every county tho leading citizens have banded to get her to protect the fish, game and forests. Indiana has the reputation of being the most active and thoroughly organized State In tho Union for carrying on this work. Ed Rhipps of tlie Gus Habloh Com puny, treasurer of the State organization. has returned from North Vernon. where lie und Gustave Myer, president, and George N. Mannfeld. superintendent of flsh and gaino. or gunized tho .Jennings County Fish, Game and Forest Protective Association. Phipps says these organizations are springing Us, almost daily and soon every county will be organized. Officers of the new Jennings County Association are Frank IT. Little, president; V. H. Mills, vico president; E. Y. Green, secretry. and Archie Brown, treasurer. This organization started with seventy five members from North Vernon and surrounding territiory. Other counties desirous of entering tills work may receive detailed information from 12d Phipps by addressing him at the Uus Hablch Company. 142 E. Washington St., Indianapolis.

what higher than they would be were the wages of railway labor lower. Jn 1022, tho average amount received by railways for hauling a ton of freight one mile was about $.OllB, which is about 61 per cent over the same item in 1913. This advance is approximately the same as that in prices. But during 1922, prices advanced about 13 per cent, while average railway receipts went down about 12 per cent. Latest Government figures show that between December, 1921. and De camber, 1022, the railway cos for enginemen and firemen per ton of lreight hauled increased about 14 per cent. (Fuel expenses also increased). Railroads Complain One tiling the railways complain of
perfect seal between the piston and cylinder wall. Our piston rings, elec trieally hammered from gray him castings, are made in such a way as to prevent a wastage of oil and gas. "Another tiling we are absolutely qualified to do is to take care of the repairs or replacement of any type wheel, wire, wood or disc, on any model car from 1912 down to the present year. if tile wheel is out of line, squeaking, ruination of tires and general inefficiency result. The Indiana Wheel adn Kim Company was organized for the express purpose of pie venting, correcting and curing rim and wheel troubles. We avoid tlie cut ting of tills’ valve stems hy the insertion of proper wedges in the rims. “Wool wheel-*, with the exception of Ford, are finished in primary coat only and can he painted to order when color is furnished. An allowance of three days is all we require for the painting.

is high taxes. Their tax charge in 1922 was about 9 per cent greater than that in 1921. Taxes must remain pretty high, and no indirect method of raising Government. revenue, such as the tariff, can make our contributions any less. Each must do his bit, and! the bit of the people with big incomes must be larger than that of the people of smaller means. We must be prepared to oppose further Government borrowing and also the growing propaganda against the income tax. The last great trouble lies abroad. European governments are still unable or unwilling to reduce their wasteful military to stabilize their currencies. As .i result they make poor customers for our goods and they threaten the peace of the world. The underlying trouble is that sermany has not buckled down to a realization that she is “licked."
