building boom industries working overtime to supply materials in united kingdom kruschen strides at the usual cause of ixmdon building activity in britain has- bequeathed- the countrys brickmaking industry so much work that manufacturers are finding dif ficulty in getting it all done a rush to keep pace with orders several firms working as much as six hours overtime and a 300 per cent increase in imports of bricks to fulfill demands which cannot be satisfied by home production are disclosed as items in expansion pra- lems now facing brick makers meanwhile added significance given to these disclosures it is said by the recent publication of the re port of the national housing com mittee which suggests a statutory commision to organize a supply of materials for a 10years housing scheme it is considered that thh would have an important effect in stabilizing secsaw motions of de mands for bricks the present deluge of orders re sults from a poor mans boom it concerns only manufacturers of bricks for the cheaper type of dwell ing houses more expensive bricks and stone facings used for important public and private buildings are not yet in great demand consequently exact and pertinent figures on the subject are difficult to find demands for bricks are not equal in all parts of the country but on the average in areas sur rounding large towns each month sees 75 new hands being added to every 1000 employed at the same time the total wages bill of the in dustry has risen by 133 per cent in a year the demand for newlabor is great est and most constant in the peter borough and durham districts but the outskirts of london are so short of necessary bricks that imports from the netherlands and northern europe have had to be increased threefold returns show that in may 1933 10503000 bricks were imported the figures for may this year rose to 25916000 june shows an increase to a total of 32887000 bricks elsewhere although many manufacturers declare themselves to be snowed under employment is improving without showing any rapid rise fevious experience of the brick trade show that boom conditions which almost invariably include the launching of large public building schemes do not last long as soon as confidence is lost the local au thorities drop their housing plans and the brick industry expanded to meet an expected constant large de mand over several years suffers im mediately many men are thrown out of work leaders of the industry declare that if they could be given a guar antee that local housing schemes once started would be carried to completion they could expand with out fear and so help to stabilize the figures of employment such a state of affairs has been visualized as an integral part of any new national housing plan by the national housing committee under the chairmanship of lord amulrec vicepresident of the building in dustries national council the proposed statutory commis sion would survey housing needs help local authorities and see that slum clearance and rehousing were brought under one coherent national scheme the building program would be financed lord amulrees committee declares by a national housing stock under treasury guar antee the committee has budgeted for a minimum of 1000000 new houses or of 10 shillings a week or loss after an intensive search into pre vailing building costs and land charges the committee has come to the conclusion that subsidization would only be necessary where land is exceptionally expensive and rates high or where the workers cannot afford 10 shillings a week but most important to the brick industry the committee declares that a housing commission such as they envisage should organize a supply of materials so as to keep down costs by making demand a known quantity although the amulrec committee was ft selfconstituted body with no legal or constitutional significance its report seems to have been fa vorably received the committee in eluded among its members a past president of the royal institute of british architects three housing au thorities a director of the bank of england and two celebrated pro gressive business men as well as some technical authorities fat try

mich tells about a gentleman of seventy years who started in his car to visit his brother who lived on a farm a few miles out he ran into a piece of bad road and his car stuck he worked for a time trying to push it and then found it necessary to crank the engine later he was found sitting in the car dead a doctor who was called said that the reason of the heart attack which caused death was too much exertion trying to get the engine started he gave it as his opinon that only 5 man in fine physical condition should ever try to crank an engine the effort was too great for a man of seventy and even for a man of lesser years it was dangerous one does not see so much of this now as during the winter when a number of cars are hard to start cranking an engine particularly in a heavy car is exhausting work and the man who has any reason to sus pect tht his heart is not the best should never try it the matter of looks i look into a face and there i see two eyes a nose a mouth a pair of
