Three thousand five hundred tons of
steel have arrived in Buffalo from Ger
many. 1t was imported by the Sizer
Forge company. The company sought
to place an order for this steel with the
Carnegie company of Pittsburg early in
the summer, but SO great was the de-
nand for American steel that the COM
pany could rot supply it under a year.
American steel is now selling for $35 per
ton, whereas the best German steel can
be bought for $50 The duty is 1912 a

of transportation the German compan-

The details of the July exports have
just been made public by the Treasury
Bureau of Statistics. They show that
the expectation of manufactures is
greater than in July of last year and
form an unusually large percentage Of
the total exports. This is due to the
fact that the very small expectations
of COIN and other cereals have made the
total of July exports unusually small,
though a careful examination of the de-
tails of the months expectation of
manufactures show that in most cases
they exceeded those of the correspond
ing month of last year. Importations
of manufacturers materials continue to
form the chief feature of the increasing
imports The total importation of
manufacturers materials for the seven
months ending with July is $252. 305, 050,
against 1921. 537,767 in the corresponding
months of last year, while the total ex-
portation of manufactures is SPAS, 1885,
o52. against 1886 093. 429 in the CORE
spending month of last year.

WAS PRODUCTIVE HARM
City Engineer McCabe Disappointed
With Municipalities Convention.


With municipalities Convention.
IT believe that the convention of the
League of American Municipalities is
likely to be productive of harm,' said
City Engineer James F. McCabe today.
in discussing the trip which he recently
made to Grand Rapids to attend this
convention.
Mr.. McCabe thinks that a large pro-
portion of the delegates to the conven-
ton were from cities having less than
$4,000 population, while the papers and
discussions which were on the pro-
gramme all had to- do with municipal
problems in cities OF much greater size.
"Delegates from the smaller towns"
says Mr.. McCabe, were obliged to sit
and listen to the authorities from the
big cities tell US how to run municipal
affairs. There was nothing developed
at the convention of special interest or
value to the delegates from smaller
cities.
plans and methods were discussed
which are of great value, no doubt, to
cities of 1000 population or over. but
which would be entirely impracticable
and ruinous to smaller cities. I feel
pretty confident that many of the dele
gates from small towns will go home
and try to apply some of the theories
which they heard expounded by city Of
ficials of the big eastern cities. They
will get themselves and their cities into
trouble, and will accomplish much less
good than If they followed the old meth
DDS used in cities of their own class.
For instance, in discussing kinds of
pavement. the only kinds which were
seriously considered by the speakers
from big towns were those which are
very expensive, and suited to the tremen-
dous traffic of large cities. Smaller
towns will get just as good. service from
less expensive pavements, and if the
costly pavements are adopted, the prog
resS of Improvements in smaller cities
will he greatly retarded 7 hot
one reason Topeka has progressed so
fast, and has such vast quantities of
pavement Is because we have found the
secret of laying cheap pavement which
answers all our requirements. Our brick
pavement might be utterly worthless in
some cities of 100000 people, but here it
is all right, and it costs US from 81. IL
to $1.25 per square yard instead of 81 go
to $500 per square yard. In view of
the fact that a majority of the delegates
to the convention were from the smaller
cities, I believe that more attention
should have been paid to their needs"
An inspection of the programme which
was given at the convention shows that
the speakers were selected from the fol-
lowing towns, which have a population
as given:
New York City, s.5oo,o0o
Baltimore. sos, 900.
Detroit, 2S5,000.
st. Paul, 1853, O00
Toledo, 131 900.
Grand Rapids. 1000.
Nashville, $4,000.
Hartford, 10000
Des Moines, g., 600
New Bedford, $1,000.
Akron, $4,000.
Birmingham, $4,000.
Waco, 10000.
Fargo, 10000.
1t is thus evident that of the fourteen
cities represented on the programme
only four were from cities of less than
| 50,000 and several of the larger towns
were represented on the programme
more than once.
