TRADE FUTURE IN GERMANY IS . DISCOURAGING Widespread Wage Cuts Are ‘ Reflected in Books of Big Industries. gy United Press BERLIN, June 11.—The German Industrial situation, as described presumably by Chancellor Heinrich Bruenlng at the Chequers week-end conferences, reveals few bright spots. With over 4.000,000 unemployed in the midst of seasonal improvement, unemployment is still 57 per cent above that of 1930, while workingmen's incomes have decreased by a total of 7,000,000,000 marks ($1,667,400,000), or 25 per cent during the last year, largely owing to wage cuts. The adverse situation has been incompletely reflected in the balance sheets of big industrial concerns because they publish results, and declare dividends only onoe a year. Dividends Are Down The average 1930 dividends of industrial companies was 6.4 per cent as compared with 7.9 per cent in 1929. Some remained high, however. For example, in 1930, mining and smelting companies’ dividends were 9.3 per cent as compared with 10.1 per cent in 1929. Insurance companies even increased to 9.4 as compared with 8.8 for 1929. Banks averaged 6.9 per cent dividends as compared with 9.4 per cent for 1929. The largest German industrial combine, the dye trust, paid a dividend of 12 per cent as compared with 14 per cent for the previous year. Coal Output Cut The second largest industrial group, the United States Steel Works, controlling about half the heavy industry, paid 4 per cent as compared w'ith 6 per cent for 1929, while its report for the first semester of the current fiscal year showed a 30 per cent drop in sales. Coal production is now 10 per cent below that of 1930. The ministry of commerce says that cost of producing a ton of coal is now 14 marks, 78 pfennigs, where the net price obtainable is only 14 marks, 46 pfennigs.

LEGISLATURE IN UPROAR Fists Fly in Illinois House in Gerrymander Fight. By United Press SPRINGFIELD. 111., June 11.— Fists flew and books were hurled during a tumultuous night session which climaxed a day of strife in the Illinois legislature over proposals to reapportion the state and help Chicago out of its financial difficulties. Booing, hissing, hurling of law books, and actual fisticuffs directly in front of the Speaker’s desk, marked Wednesday night’s session which saw Republicans and Democrats line up solidly against each other over the question of splitting the state into twenty-seven new congressional districts.
