They added that while the labor question is a prominent question, it is not the whole social question; that the welfare of other classes, such as the farmers and the middle classes, must not be lost sight of. The middle class is referred to as the great bulwark of the state. The resolution said in part: "While condemning rationalistic capitalism unconscious or heedless of the responsibilities of its stewardship of wealth we likewise oppose the political tyranny of socialism and we advance as our' solution of the problems the system of reorganization as designed by Father Pesch."

The resolutions said these questions must be faced and to offset them the teachings of the Catholic church and the Christian social reform program of the church were offered.

The Azores are the mileposts along that pathway in the Atlantic which leads direct from America to Gibraltar.

Yet they were virtually found anew when they were visited by Portuguese navigators, from 1431 to 1460. sixty-one years, at most, before Columbus discovered America.

Dressed or manufactured stone decreased nearly 40 per cent in quantity and 25 per cent in value. . .. . -Oolitic a Barometer "As Indiana oolitic limestone reprepents more than one-third otthe total of al lkinds of building stone sold annually," says the report, "its status is a fair Index of the condition of the entire building stone industry, and it may be estimated, theref pre, that the total quantity of building stone of all kinds sold in 1918 amounted to only 7,000,000 cubic feet, valued at about $6,750,000.

proximately reliable figures are available Rapid Rise Expected. t "This. low ebb, however, is certain to be followed by a rapid rise. Although building of some kinds was very active in 1915 and 1916. the kind of high-class construction that calls for stone has been depressed since 1913. When " business in general once emerges from its present state of hesitation, high-class building should not only become normal, but should be in extra demand to make up for the five dull years just past. Furthermore, it will not be surprising if. after tbe last few years-of military commercialism and of rapid construction of temporary buildings resulting from it there should, ensue a period of reaction in favor of buildings of "'higher architectural merit, a reaction which may affect not only the larger buildings but the more modest public business structures and private dwellings. Even a partial realization of these prospects will restore the building-stone industry to the prominence it has always maintained until the recent abnormal period." t - - f . ; ,
