BUSINESS CONDITIONS ARE DISCUSSED BY ST. LOUISAN Business conditions throughout the country were discussed by D. J. Wood lock, secretary of the national association of retail credit men, at the weekly luncheon of the Springfield Kiwanis club at the Chamber of Commerce yesterday. The adjustment period began last August, he said, when the public quit buying, causing a slump in business activities and the closing down of many Industrial plants.

This condition is now being remedied, and the country is on the road to prosperity with the prospects that the next two years will equal thewar period In this re spect, the speaker predicted. The shortage of home which exists throughout the United States, aa well as in Springfield, was dwelled upon by the spcakeer, who emphasized that the building material men and the labor men must maintain a spirit of give and take and that when this was accomplished the country would experience one of the greatest building booms in its history. America must help the war stricken countries, Mr. Woodlock said, and by helping them to help themselves make them self supporting, and open up a market for the products of this country. He advised a spirit of optimism In re gard to buslneaa prospecta In discussing credit conditions, the speaker said that ft per cent of the public is honest and th eretail credit men are assisting In keeping them hon est.

Credit exchanges are maintained in 147 cities in the United States and among this number the Springfield or ganisation is credited wiln being one of the most wide awake. 11 Tbo Hsrh school faculty won an eajry victory over the seniors yesterday by the score of It to t.
