EXPECT LIVING TO STAY HIGH Philadelphia Board of Trade Compiles Scores of Statistics Philadelphia, July 25.—The cost of living Is likely to stay high for a long time to come in the opinion of the Philadelphia Board of Trade. This view is a result of a compila tion of statistics from many lines of trade and Industry. According to these figures the ad vance in prices in this country since 1914 has been about 101 per cent., in Canada 115 per cent., Great Britain 133 per ceht. and France 235 per cent. It is pointed out that, in spite of material reductions in the price of steel, the advance in other commodi ties since the armistice has been so great that the average price schedules have been reduced but 5.T per cent, below prices prevailing October 1, 191$. The following are given as reasons why wages will not be much less for a considerable period of time. Practical stoppage of immigration since 1914, depriving this country of several millions of workers who would normally have come to us and thus have relieved the labor short age which confronts American in dustry upon the resumption capacity operations. Retention in te Government milt tarv service of nearly 2.000.000 work ers which, it is declared will doubtless continue an indefinite period Creation of new industries such as shipbuilding manufacture of chem cals and dyes. .... „ an ,4 Urgent demand for building and construction of every c, f ß ® .*? bck their having been forcibly held back for several years. Shortage of world food supplies and uniformly high prices Proportionately higher levels of commodity prices existing through out Europe, Says Country Must Save Its Forests Washington. —"Plans for the per petulatlon of the forests in Now England and the Ead, and for the restoration of the denuded forest land should be thoroughly discussed hv the Association of Eastern Forest ers which meets at Kineo, Maine, on July IT." declares Charles Lalhrop Pack, president of the American Forestry Association in issuing a call to the Eastern Foresters to express their view of the need of a national forest policy. . "The people of this country must he told how our forests are disap pearing." said Mr. Pack, "and must be aroused to the need of a pohci which will result in our watersheds being protected for all time and for our forests to be managed so that thev may provide for all our future lumber and forest product require ments. "New England is no longer a tac tor In our lumber supplies, and its pulp-wood supplies are being rapidly rthaustcd. The paper mills of the country already import 3 per cent, of their raw material in the form of wood or pulp. Our hardwoods in the North and East are being rapidly used up and many wood using in dustries are already embarrassed for supplies. "The Eastern Foresters are experts who should be able to offer a practi cal solution to the problem of how to conserve what forests we ha\ e remaining, how to restore what for ests have been destroyed, how to protect our forests from fire and how to provide for perpetuation of our forests so that the lumber re quirements of the nation may be as sured for the future. "We have the example of France which was able to successfully re sist the onslaughts of the Hun be cause she not only had the men and munitions but also had a plenti ful supply of lumber for her allies and herself because she adopted a practical forest policy over one hun dred years ago. 'The American Forestry Associa tion heartily supports the demar.fi of the United tates Forest Service for a national forest policy and calls upon the lumbermen. timberland owners and foresters of the country to suggest plans for a policy which will be practical and which will as sure the nation of ample forests for its future needs." Prohibition Closes Famous Old Inns Philadelphia, July 25. lnns in existence since colonial days are among those closed by the wartime prohibition law. One of the most noted is the Gen eral Wayne Inn. on the Montgom ery pike outside of Philadelphia, which was opened in 1704 as the Wayside Inn by Quaker settlers. "Mad" Anthony Wayne used the inn as his headquarters during the Revolutionary War and it has been a polling place for more than 200 years. Turk's Head Inn at West Chester has closed its doors. In revolution ary times it was visited by General Washington, Lafayette, "Mad" An thony Wayne. Colonel Taylor and many other officers of Washington's army. Porto Ricans Are Receiving Re-education Washington, July 25.—The Fed eral Board for Vocational Education is leaving no stone unturned in its efforts to find every disabled sol dier who may, if he so desires, re ceive education from the Govern ment. In Porto Rico there are at present 110 soldiers disabled in the service, who should be beneficiaries of the rehabilitation law. The spec ial agent of the Board in the Island is interviewing these men with a view to their future vocations. Porto Rico has no trade schools, but train ing and placement may be made in shops and industrial establishments for those who desire it, and the Government Agricultural College at Mayaguez provides training for those who wish to go on the Island.
