MAJ. MELTON DEFENDS IK

Says Further Adjustment Necessary Before Public Begins To Buy Normally.

NETT TORK. May : tiers throuplvut the '.mprovlnc but there

raHluntnient hefove the public bce'i

t buy urnti a norma! bnl. Judpe K. j H. Gary, chairman of the l"nitf rl Sta'en ' Steel corporation, told the American

Tr'n and Steel Institute here today

I am not at all disee.urnfted ; there is j nothing; the mater with the country." j

rtcUrel .Iud Gary in his address cfienirtg th! annual meeting ot thfe int i'ute . Jid?e Gary clarJ rat mw r the prices charged for rommdil ie are unreasonable "if not extortionate." He raid that Mriet enforcement of tht lw i- a vital factor In the restoration or normal conditions." One ff the motit hopeful .ljrn of the t:nis he added, was the apparent, flisrogltln of the national administration at WuMVinattcri to help legitimate l.u.lne. Jud4 Gary said that until v sgt-n 8f further decrcas. ,! th eoMs rf many Heel producers will not permit lower celling: pfics. He l. oppo. ed to further wage cut', horvever, until the cfeet of living; come duwn. Judftfl Uary'a pech in part follows:

In the richest of all nations. In: propert y.nd money, with the greatest) nd mot rapidly increasing regource-. ! cur popie arc not buying: enough to j supply themselves fully with the Oral - i nary comforts of life. Hi! hough they! ha the rtispOBitton and nu ans to (in ' .". The demand Is. and for enrac time j has been below normal. j 'The great purchasing fubiic has formed th Opinion that there have not l been consummated complete and prop- t er read juatmenti of prices; and on ac-j count of fl!ura to discriminate b-j twen different lines or departments of

huslneea th whale economic system has euffered, The rllt majority f buin.? men and workmen are sincere and fair bat there )a and perhaps always will we, a rr.lnority that ignore the prim iples or cmmoli honesty. They are sufficient in nurrtber to Seriously affect the whole ntuttlon. Until these are arouses to h noity of getting- in line with soond ftnd decent standards of conduct the full return to satisfactory business tondillona will be more or les Im"Now, what. If anything, can be dona to improve the gr-neral situation. I answer, the first tiling for instance, throughout the world. Is the observant and enforcement of law. There is no standard for safe and certain progress in economic effort except In f-stabllshed rule of law which fixes and protects the rights of everyone without discrimination.

"it laws shall be enforced and peace;

maintained, the other questions relat-

ing to economic prugresi- will he solved. If It should be deemed necessary snd wise to have government supervisions over organized industry in ord--r to protect the public interests, 1 personally would not obejet. provUed The laws and rules shall likewise appiy to organized capital and organized labor. 'One of the most hopeful signs of th times is the apparent disposition o the present administration at Washington to aid rather than oo-sfr-jct the nature' and legitimate progress of business. "If we may rely upon the statements by economic and statistical experts, the country is now headed In the right direction and if this be true, as I believe, then our progress towards recovery, although slow at present. " iil Increase as the days go by. The se business on the whole is a little, tetter this month than it was last. i';neral business throughout the L'nit"l States has ben slowly improving. Tt is very good in some of the western states. I am not at all discouraged. There; Is an abundance of new business. There is nothing the matter wf'h the country; jr. with the individuals. Patience, courage and a f.jir disposiion will bring satisfactory ondltions in due time."

Major A. P. Melton, of Gary, who has just roturned from n business ijmr

Mexico still has its many- factions, but prompt action Is being taken whenever a crisis appears and the indications ar that the ruling government will meet with success in ita present undertaking. Major Melton further stated that Americans need have no fear that the Japanese are gaining any Influence in Mexico its press dispatches would make it appear. Practically "no foreigners "re admitted now, but Mexicans arc anxious to have legitimate American investors v isit them.
