STEEL INDUSTRIES MAKE

PROGRESS

ART, DRESS AND REFORMERS CLASH; ALL OVER THESE

FURTHER

Continued improvement in the finished steel market is giving Calumrt region industries a better position each week. Deliveries have ceaed to be matters of a week or ten days and consumers must buy thirty to sixty days in advance ,if tliey dasire a continuous supply of material for their processes. Large uers are buying for- stock to fortify themselves against lack of.supp'y. Apparently both producers and consumers of steel have been surprised at the rate of which buyJri? has developed. STFF.I, MII.I.S REACH. CAPACITY. More plants here are attaining operating schedules of 100' per cent than ha? been the case for many months pat. At present mill booking are larger than production and the backlog thus is being increased steadily, putting: mills, in much better position. The Illinois Steel company has increased operations of its four plants to TO per cent of capacity, while th5 Gary plant is at SO per rrnt. This company still has fifteen Maft furnaces in blast as for the past for the past fornight. Inland Stee! company continues at nearly 7 per cent capacity, due to increased operations in No. 2 plant from structural and rail productions. Demand for bar Iron la increasing (o an extent that some producers are operating double turns. This is true of the Interstate Iron and Steel company which plant has practically reached capacity within the last week. Increased production of the Republic Iron and Steel company, parent plant at Toungstown, ' bat placed the local industry on a stead

ier operation basis. The nine Inch mill of this concern -has gone on double turns recently. The Milwaukee railroad's purchase is divided. 1,000 each to the Pullman company and the Western Car t- i Foundry company, 1 500 to the Bettendorff Car company, and S00 to the General American Car company. The steel for these cars will be divided approximately twofifths to the Inland Steel company and three-fifths to the Illinois Steel company. The General American Car corporation was also low bidders on 300 stock cars from the Northwestern railroad. ' Specifications for standard steel

rails are being filed in larger volume with Calumet region mills, though "buying of this , product is not large now, most roads having contracts for sufficient rails for their needs. The Chesapeake fc Ohio railroad has apportioned a recent purchase by giving the Inland Steel, company 9.600 tons and the Illinois Steel company 7,000 tons. GARY SEES IMPROVEMENT. The business and financial bulls have seised upon the statement of Chairman E. H. Gary of the United States Steel corporation, as offering authoriative' corroboration for their vews. "In spite of seme abnermal and unreasonable aspects concerning business matter-'' said be "there is at present apparently a marked improvement. ' The position of business is upward as to volume." Most important of all that he said, however, was the announcement that the corporation would follow the Independents - in" advancing prices from present low and unprofitable levels. This is taken as the. first denenl,te assurance that conditions in the steel industry are on the way -toward restored earning and resumed . dividend, where they have been deferred.

have to search the world for President Harding's '"double." "The president is strikingly

handsome and he reminds me soj

much of a Roman senator," Lillian said. Dorothy chimed in with; "he would go 'wonderfully on the screen as Julius.' I don't think there is a truer Caesar type in the world than President Harding." Watching people at the white house is instructive, Lillian said. "It was a great lesson in acting," she said, "to observe how the people acted when they met the president, for Mr. Harding asked us to be seated in his executive offices while lie received. Of course they were all excited, as we were. In fact, knees were shaking, though I tried to conceal the fact under what I hoped was a very calm exterior. After all, one doesn't meet the president of the greatest country on earth every day."

Art and dress when are they proper and who'll decide? Do one-piece bathing suits and pearly costumes chatter the public morals T Sometimes, but it all depends on where they're worn. In Paris the gendarmerie decided that Mme. Dherly's dance, in a pearly costume, lacking enough pearls to reach above her

waist, was art. But in New York police arrested Thelma Harvey for a similar dance. Mae Murray caused the censors no end of work when she appeared in a recent movie in a peacock costume. Winsome little Madge Merritt. New York, will be arrested if she appears on the Atlantic City beach with her prize winning

a few more pearls .than Mme.

bathing suit because she doesn't like stockings. And the board of education of Newark, N. has decided that the girl students under its jurisdiction must avoid roll-down stockings so the boys can devote all their time to study. Where's the dress-art-reform squabble going to end? That's right. We think so, too.

As in most tropical countries, the lack of extensive manufacturing development causes the Dutch East Indies to be a large importer of manufactured goods. The most im

portant item brought in is cotton j goods. In fact, the Island of Java I

is reported to be the third largest importer of cotton godds in the world. Formerly the supply came almost .entirely from Holland and England ,but since the war this trade has been shared by Japan and the Tnited State.

for young first termers, it was learn ed today. They will be taught a trade, placed on parole, if deserving after serving a certain period, and be helped into a job a"t the conclusion of their sentence. The president. It is said, agrees with the attorney general that the United States has outgrown the penitentiaries, as well as the courts, with their present limitations, and new and improved methods are essential to care for expected increases among those convicted cf crimes. Attorney General Daugherty said today there are 600 young men in federal prisons who "deser-e another chance to make good." He would, remove them from the hardened criminal class. . "My record of paroles shows that nine out of every ten prisoners can be trusted on parole." said Daugherty. "i want to give such young

are not hopeless. These federal prisons are bad fqr the mnra's and health of the young prisoners. "Nine out. of ten of young men of this class can be saved. Its the government's duty to save them. It can be done by providing a way. With the sanction of congress it will be shown that the results will not be disappointing." The attorney general's recommendation to the president followed reports of conditions in government prl?on- showing they are overcrowded with newcomer and that the government faces the necessity of "actually building additional penitentiaries.
