New York. July 15—It is well
jknewn that Americans ibhcome [in
'c re a singly patriotic the farther they
get away from home. Americans,'
sluggish about such forms ait home, al-1
ways leap to their feet at the first i
strains of “The Star Spangled Ban- j
ner” played badly by ships’ orchestras
I begin to grow homesick for New j
York about 24 hours before I sail, j
Correspondents often point out what i
a dreadful duty it Is of mine to live
here in order to report the local cir- ;
cus, and half th etime I am, ready <w> I
agree with them. But not the last
day before my boat whistle iblows. i
Everything the n begins to take on a I
roseate glow J Taxi drivers take the 1
shortest cuts through traffic, thought
fully dousing the meter if we are un
duly detained. I see a gripping play,
after sleeping in my orchestra chair

that I shall undoubtedly see nothing

VANISHING PEEVES
To steel myself I read through col
umhs in which I have listed a vast
variety of annoyances, vulgarities and
(petty peeves to be encountered about
the town. On this final day, though,
I am unable to discover a single one
of the miat work. i
No on© can deny (I say) that 4
month devoted to recording the foif
bles of Europe for this space should
freshen this reporter’s vision and bet
ter equip ihim for 11 months to come

hand, in this steel and stone dungeon.
•But what is my dismay to look out of
!my window and see the town all fresh
and glistening eve n now, a fairyland
cf yearning spires.
Even the subways seem full, of the
laroma of May woods. The town vib
rates with the same promise f adven
ture it held for me that first morning
driving away from the Pennsylvania
station. It is once more th(a city

bilities and infinite hope.

fever has gone out of the pavements.
I feel that I could almost step into
one of the shady auction rooms of the
Hialto and come out with a bargain.
Whe n I return I will have to devote
a week to getting myself roundly
•hoodwinked, gypped, jostled and vict
imized by a scorer of pretty rackets

instruction and betterments than $6,-
000,000 would have a year ago,’ Ames
said. “The cost of materials has al
ready shot up and prices are going
higher every day and will continue
to for some time yet, according to
present indications. It also seems
likely that the wage scale which con
tractors will be required to pay will
•be from 75 to 100 per cent greater
than last year. The result is going
to be that we are not going to be
able to build nearly as many miles
of highway with this money as some
people seem to think.”
Labor Alone Big Item.
The item of laboj- alone is going
to be one of the most expensive in
this mew construction work, 'Ames
said, if the wage scales are increased
as much for contractors as they havev
been in other lines. The wage scale
last year on Federal Aid road pro
jects was 20 cents an hour for un
skilled labor and 30 cent s an hour for
skilled labor. Although the new wage
scales have not been announced from
Washington yet many believe they
will require from 30 to 40 cents an
hour for unskilled labor and from 45
to 50 cents an hour for skilled labor.
If these increases are made, they will
almost double the labor costs of the
contractors, without taking into con
sideration the increases in the cost
of caterials.
Stale Costs Mount.
The manner in which prices are
continuing to rise, especially on tex
tiles and staple food supplies, is go
ing to cause the State to spend much
more for supplies for the various
State institutions than in the last two
years, according to A. S. Brower,
director of the Division of Purchase
and Contract. * .
“There is no way to gstifirjate how
much morfc money,,will be/required
to. buy- supplies, especially food and
clothing for the state institutions
this year as compared with the last
two or three years but it is likely to
run up into the thousands of dol
lars,” Brower said. “Every time we
call for new bids on any foodstuffs
or clothing materials, the prices quot
ed are higher every time.

ABOARD FLAGSHIP PLANE
Montreal, July 15. —(AP) —General
Italo Balbo hopped off from here to
day, leading his trans-Atlantic Italian
armada on the last stage of its flight
to Chicago.
The flagship, leader of the squad
ron of 24 planes, raised its nose from
the water at 10:14 a. m., eastern
standard time, and followed by two
others to form the first trial of the
flight soared aloft.
Augusto Rosso Italian ambassador
to the United States, was in the gen
eral’s plane accompanying him on to
day’s flight along Lake Ontario and
Lake Erie.
In groups of three the other pow
erful monoplanes rose amid the
cheers of a great throng and joined
the formation for its journey of 750
miles to Chicago, the goal of the long
flight from Italy.
