There are also a few who see a continuation of low prices, low wages and low living conditions arid think it to be normal. Unless some stepis are taken to prevent too great advances, it is evidenti. that there will be a tremendous increase of industrial activity before very long. With this will go an increase in" wages in those industries where there have been reductions.
