WEEKLY Business and Industrial PAGE

EVERY DAY IS MOVING DAY IN INDIANAPOLIS | Head of Transfer Company Tells of Increase in Business, j Every day is moving day in Tndianjapolis, according to J. R. Skinner. : president of the Capitol Transfer and j Storage Company, 127 W. New York : st. **Our business has Increased to such I an extent we have to rent trucks to 1 take care of it,” he said. "Wo have I j fifteen old trucks and have ordered three new Mack trucks and one heavy capacity trailer. Our business Is largely confined to the city because i we are so busy takikng care of this work wo are tenable to mako trips out of the city, although we have many calls from the outside, i “We are well prepared to handle I heavy machinery' and can move it iso it will not be injured. Our men ' are experienced In loading and handling machinery and do it in an expert way. We take great care in handling all kinds of Jobs, for we realize our reputation la closely allied ! to the way we take care of our customers. “This is a busy time for us. for this is the natural season to move. People are glad to have somebody who Is qualified and equipped to take this responsibility. Thousands or dollars ran be lost in moving delicate machinery unless the transfer company is experienced and knows how to relieve the jar to delicate mechanism. “Increased business building has j been a source of heavy hauling, also, j and we predict the busiest summer j since the beginning of our business.”

PROSPERITY RESPONSIBLE FOR SHORTAGE OF LABOR ; Expert Thinks Industry Can Be Maintained With Application of Efficiency,

Coupes Sedans 330 N. Delaware St.

By DR. LOUIS H. HANEY. Director of Bureau Business Research Department. New York University. NEW YORK, April 30.—Wages are still rising. Will the rise check prosperity? Should we lay down the Immigration bars? Three facts which bear on the answers to the questions stand out. Theeo facts are: There Is no general shortage of labor, taken as a whole. The recent advances in wages have mostly come from the bidding for labor by employers whoso businesses are prospering. Since our export business Is small while population hits increased rapidly there Is no good reason to doubt that we have a sufficient total man and woman power to run our Indus tries If efficiency is maintained. In spite of the great increase In employment, there are still points where some unemployment exists. This brings out the fact our real problem Is one of readjusting our existing labor force. Readjustment Is exactly what Is going on. The farms are losing men. Complaints come from the South that, a large number of colored laborers have gone into northern industrial centers. Wages are going up because prices are advancing and higher profits are beln made In many indust r'es. The latest figures show large In-

PLUMBING 11 MAKES PROGRESS I Improvements Add Conveniences to Modern Homes. Extensive and intensive progress has been made In manufacture of plumbing fixtures and in their instal lotion, says F. E. Trotsky, 2949 Central Ave. Through experience many have discovered a beautiful bath tub with in adequate piping is only a source of trouble, as is the kitchen sink with a poroly designed connection to waste pipe. For efficiency in plumbing there must be fixtures of a good grade and these must be installed by one thoroughly acquainted with his Job. flood I workmanship in installation costs a little more, but this eliminates the constant repair expense that always fellows the poorly installed Job. "Now building is very brisk and we are correspondingly busy. The General character of the plumbing put into homes now Is much higher than that employed a few years ago. Plumbing is no longer an unsightly necessity: it is designed and finished to fit into a home in a harmonious manner. "Not onjy Is the plumbing better installed and the fixtures better looking, but the plumbing is so designed as to do away with unnecessary turns. Simplicity of design characterizes the highest grade plumbing. Through the use of modern fixtures the newly built home has many of the conveniences formetfly found only in ultra-smart clubs or expensive hotels."

HOTEL BUSINESS REPORIED GOOD BY FIRM HEAD Advantages of Spink-Arms Related by President of Company, Hotel business in Indianapolis is good, according ot E. J. Spink, president of the E. J. Spink Company, owners of the Spink-Arms Hotel. "Not only are all of our housekeeping apartments filled, but our transient business is growing heavier all the time also," said Mr. Spink. “Social and business organizations hold their meetings here and we are headquarters for many conventions. The manager, W. A. Holt. Is experienced and is well acquainted with the local public as well as with a considerable part of the transient trade. He understands tho wants of the traveling public and tries to meet these needs. “The many departments of the hotel are in running order now. It has taken a long time to get everything down to a smooth working basis, but we feel we have reached that stage now. Every kind of service our guests may desire can be found under our roof and we find the traveling public appreciates this service. Another reason given by our guests for their preference for our hotel is its location, the fact it is away from the noise and confusion of the business district. “We have found our hotel apartments have met a long felt need. The hotel apartment is arranged to combine all the features of a hotel, but it is arranged also to permit of light housekeeping. “The summer probably will be a little lighter in our business than winter hits been. However, the season just closing has been the best in our business. High rentals and exceedingly heavy upkeep have made many people dispose of their homes In favor of the apartment and hotel.”

creases in employment in the following industries. Automobile, car building, Iron and steel, cotton, brick, fertilizer and steel ship building. Evidently these are the points where labor is most needed. These industries, with the exception of ship building are mostly the ones which were starved during the war. BIG IMPROVEMENT MAGE IN PICTURES Modern Photography Is Reduced to Science, Photography today is a science, and no other science has made a more rapid development, Is the opinion o! E. S. Mack of the Holland Studio, 17 W. Market St. "We can look back to a time, and that not long ago. and recall the stiff, strained looks that peered at us out of the pictures of the old family al bums," he said. “Many of us can remember when a photographer went about bis business in much the same way the dentist does, our heads were clamped in an unnatural position that strained and cramped every muscle from foot to the head. “But all that has changed now. The present photography has reached a high state of artistic development and today the work turned out by a well equipped modern studio such as the one wo maintain compares favorably with the best portrait paintings. The perfection in the use of light together with the marked degree of growth that has been made in the finishing of photographs has been large- 1 ly responsible. "Wo specialize in the photography of children —it is the kind that affords the greatest opportunity to the photographer, but at the same time it is the most difficult, for it is very hard to get a natural pose of a child. He feels more or less timid and strange, due in many cases to too much admonishing and to the fact that ho is dressed up too much.” AUTO COMPANY REDUCES RATES Renters of Cars Pay Only for Distance Driven. Reduction in rates and increased service to customers mark (he present condition of the Saunders-Heater-Mitchell Company, 330 N. Delaware St., according to the general manager, W. F. Saunders. “We have eliminated the minimum charge and now when a man takes out one of our cars and drives It only one mile be pays for that OdbQj

"We have made a flat .reduction of 1 cent a mile in the rentals of all cars, thereby making the rental for open Fords 12 cents a mile, for Ford sedans and coupes 14 cents a mile and for gear shift cars 16 cents a mile. "We have added ten of the new Ford four-door sedans, three new Oldsmoblles and some new Maxwells. We had been using only Fords but found that our customers sometimes preferred gear shift cars so we were glad to include them. “We give free service to all of our customers.
