naturally tend to bring about a more favorable solution of this problem than is now presented. "There are the usual scattered exceptions to any general statement.
Labor is plentiful in some sections, scarce in others. The matter of obtaining money for construction is the most difficult problem of alL It is not that money seems to be so high in price as that , it is hard to get, particularly in the agricultural sections. Good likelihoods of construction lie in, the central west and the extreme east. Low price of corn has a deterrent effect upon probable building in surplus corn states of the middle west. Apparently when construction gets well under

dwelling houses in its purpose and intent; this because of the supreme necessity of more adequate housing almost everywhere. Few things tend to hasten the return of better times than the building industry. Things used in the building of dwelling houses call upon practically all the industries of the country for their products. A general and far-reaching construction program in this country during 1922 is the best possible harbinger of a return to more prosperous conditions." The late Senator Boise Penrose was a Washington institution. As many stories are told of him in the capital as of another famous senator. Johu Sharp Williams of Mississippi. The Pennsylvanian was a man of few words but no man in the senate was
better equipped to take part in a rough
and tumble debate. His sarcasm was withering. A few years ago Penrose had a tilt with J. Ham Lewis, at that time a senator from Illinois. Lewis was known to fame for his pink whiskers and his ready wit. He was tempted to twit Penrose upon his portly form. "It is true," Penrose retorted, "that I am in the full vigor of my manhood and do not have to resort to dyestuffs to make an appearance." Lewis, stung by the charge that the shade of his whiskers was artificial, replied sharply: "And I, Mr. President,
do not need an annual coat, or white- ! wash." j Penrose was asked later if he and
Lewis were not good friends. "Y-a-a-s." he answered in his best Penrosian drawl, "after dark." One delightful day last fall Penrose asked Senator Watson ,of Indiana to go for a drive in the famous red touring car of which Penrose was so fond. Senator Watson said that the first words Penrose spoke on that trip were utteied in Baltimore when he said to the driver. "Go on to Philadelphia." Arriving there Penrose again broke his silence. "Drive back to Washington," he said to the driver. When the car stopped in front of Watson's home the Indiana senator said that he had enoyed the ride, then for a third time Penrose unsealed his lips, but then merely to eject a grunt of acknowl
edgement. He had his moods. For days he would maintain a profound
silence. At other times he was almost
garrulous. Few loved the man, many
admired him. Elements of Greatness
Those who were closest to Penrose recognized that he had many elements of greatness. He made no effort at
pretense; he never excused his faults or follies.- He had a great contempt
tor hypocrisy. His life was a lonely one, his pleasures few and his wants were simple. Political battle, in which he asked no quarter and . gave none, gave him his greatest enjoyment And, his friends say, he had a deep love for his country. He gloated over the fact
that he had "no international mind." He was opposed to the selection of Hughes for secretary of state, but accepted him for the sake of party harmony. He was once asked whom he thought would make a good secretary of state. "If we had power to resurrect the dead," he replied. "Buffalo Bill would be my choice. There was a real, red-blooded American. That's what we need at the state department." It is said that the last few months marked a change in Penrose's attitude toward Secretary Hughes.
