PROTECTION IS GIVEN TO SHIP WORKERS 'T 800,000 NEW HOMES A YEAR According to 'the Research; Department of the NRA, an annual buildiiifSr volume of 800,000 residential units is re quired to supply the need for' new dwellings. This takes no account of replacement of existing sub-standard homes, and until these are replaced the needed volume could easily be at the rate of 2,000,000 structures a year. A building re vival could fall far below these high limits, and still be the most powerful of factors in fighting depression. No dollar Vve siend does more work, in stimulating domestic trade and providing employment, than does the building dollar. I Surveys show Unit 37.3 per cent of nil the money spent goes to labor at the site to excavators, graders, enrpentors, masons, plumbers, plasterers. etc. The balance of 02.7 per cent goes to buy needed materials and sup plies and the Rreat bulk of that Is paid to workers In the plants and factories manufacturing them. In general about eighty cents out of each dollar goes to labor, directly or Indirectly. i The heavy Industries those supplying such manufactures as steel, lum bor, cement were hit hardest by hard times. They are facing the gravest difficulties In recovering from them. Spurring construction would do much to solve a legion of our most troublesome problems.
