S# Business Is AlPWlfd So, all told, there are 5^60^00 men tho majority doubtless facaily men-- whose prosperity is bound up with the building • businoss. There is not a steel mill, liimber camp, gravel pit or stone quarry in the United States that is not affected by the building situation today. Thete is not a retail trade anywhere that is not held back by tbe iu^ili.ty of this great army df 5,800*000 with its 16,000,000 or 18,06^0flii> dependents, to draw the wages,' salaries, fees and profits that would be coming to its members, if ouly the building business could be started fuil spee<i ahead, finormoin Pnrchaaiiig Power The new purchasing power woul4 be enormous. It would be in the billions. It would irrigate business in the desert places all over the country. How widely the benefits would be distributed is beyond calculating. In and by. itself, even the regeneration of the railway business would accomplish no more; the settlement of the coal strike, not so much. ; ~ The only purpose of this article is to show how the construction business is interwoven with the industrial life of the American people and how its full revival would stimulate as if by magic the' welfare of the whole people. 4 meets for « at Lake Acc«||ptg to the rt E likelj new rvisors when that' _ nization next Tu &he body of Dr. A. practitioner at li&id in Rock river naair on Monday afternoon of Dr. Smith disappeared froni ford city ^pitat^M^reh A Im rr pnmhjr nf thi ing plantst«i Wiliifii _ daylight saving schedule of worlc£if hours starting May 1., Whelher ^ hot the -ptan wiii hw at W ^ aiitL The ization %t Woodstock of Company G was taken at, a meeting held at the county seat last Friday night.

'• > v jf . 4-'-*f l" r What It 'Would Do For Business and llow It Would Work What would help local business most at this time ? Half the business men if asked this question would answer: Plenty of building. In a hundred cities of the United States the answer would be the same. Of course, there is more building from month to month. But population grows a few millions every five years in the United States and for five years building has lagged far behind the needs of the increasing American families and business enterprises. 2,600,000 Builders No doubt young married couples, families with children and professional men would be helped by more home building and office building and by lower rents. But how would general business be benefitted? Well, here in brief is the answer: In ordinary times about 2,250,000 working men get their living, their wages, the money spent at the retail stores by their families out of the nation's building industry; about 200,- 000 contractors get their profits and about 125,000 professional men, architects, engineers, etc., get their commissions and fees. When the industry is half idle, half of these 2,600,000 men do not get the money and so do not spend it. That is plain. Any grocer, butcher or dry goods man figured that out long ago. But big as is this plain proposition, it tells Only about half the story. ^ ' Another Army of Workers Back of this great army of builders is another army, and when the first army is only half employed and half paid, the other army is condemned to half time and half pay, too. When the 2,600,000 builders are busy, soma 2,500,000 other men are kept at work to supply them with ma tsrials.
