BAN ON' PREFABRICATEI) HOMES
|
The senate defense investigating committee!
is seeking a showdown on the government labor
policies in the construction field by calling beforeI
bidder in a Wayne County, Michigan, housing pro-l
ject, was denied the contract.
One concern claiming to use CIO building la-
bor offered a bid of $979,000 against a bid by an
AFL contractor of $1,410,000, a mere $431,000l
stickup on the project, but the sticker was thatl
the low bidder was planning prefabricated houses,
which the building trades oppose.
In these days of rising costs of material and,
labor the average small home builder for himself
or for others is outclassed by the huge spending
of government funds to provide housing in some;
communities, which in itself is a sad maladjust-
ment of domestic economy for which the nation’s
labor will in due time suffer with other taxpayers.
Those who plan for labor-saving and cost-
cutting methods to meet the demand for homes
all over the land should be encouraged rather than. the first division L.
penalized either by labor or government; and
some day the administration must take notice of
the abuses being practiced on the people under
the mistaken appeal for national defense.

to its one—game edge on the field

same issue in Michigan.
FOOD COSTS BEING HELD DOWN
As yet the consumers are more scared than
hurt by rising costs of food necessities, with the
exception of meats, and there is no apparent
scarcity of most essential lines of canned goods
judging by the stocks displayed in local stores
and the supplies daily arriving to keep up stock.
The same is not true in heavy goods, parti-
cularly of metal, and of most clothing, paper
and shoe lines, for these materials have been
largely requisitioned for army supply, and there.
is a shortage to dealers and higher costs reflect-
ed in all new purchases when they can be gotten.
But with a penny here and a nickle or dime
more there it may seem that the cost of living
is rising, but on examination it will likely bel
found that the real necessities of family living
have not increased much while the so-called lux-
uries are adding up to an inereased cost of
“higher living.” '
However, the average citizen who is not in
the line of increased wages or salary, will bel
more likely to realize that costs are slowly rising
in many directions, and that values as related to
money are more or less inflated, and he will won—
“der what will happen to his modest income on the
1942 models.
N0 EXCUSE iron MOST RESTRICTIQNS
As the folly and iniquity of the short-sighted
policy of restriction of normal industry and busi-
ness, and particularly that of nondefense home-
building, becomes apparent a big protest is go-
ing up over the land in the smaller communities
which are not faVored with so-called defense
spending.
There is no sound reason for limiting the
supply of the moderate needs for Small-tOWn
building since this is limited at. bestby rising
prices of labor and materials as well as enforced
shortage for alleged army needs, and by. the tak-
ing of skilled labor away from these smaller'com-
munities for government work at wages no pri-
vate purse can afford.
The folly lies in the fact that small industry
and business is expected not only to save the peo-
ple from needless hardships in their daily needs,
but more important, tow enable the bulk of the,
people who make up the volume of income taxes
demanded by government, to meet their obliga-
tions and support the drain for war purposes.
There ample supply of every commodity
for domestic use and for the armed forces with-
out cutting the civilian needs, at least asyet, or;,
until this country undertakes to feed the world;
