NO HARD TINES.
Steel Corporation Officer Says
Good Times Will Continue.

Speaking Of the Industrial situation,
Il leading executive officer of the
United States Steel corporation, says:
II am not at all pessimistic on the
general situation. 1t is foolish to be-
lieve that this country, with it's great
business. its vast crops, its enormous
railroad earnings and its tremendous
home consumption, will suddenly pass
from the crest of good times to a con-
dition exactly opposite. know that
the management OF the United States
Steel looks for no great change in
conditions.
''It is true that stocks are all way
off, but that is no essential condition
as to values. Not many years ago
American Steel and Wire, earning
and paying I per cent steadily, was
selling on Wall street at Al per cent of
par, and other dividend-paying stocks
were as low. Steel common is now
selling at point when four years
dividends will pay for it. OF course.
no one knows that present dividends
will be maintained, and that doubt
causes the low price. But 1 know
that di;idends are assured for a con-
siderable period aud that there is now
no intention on the part of the pre-
sent management to change the pre-
sent policy as to dividends so long as
they are earned.
"Instrinsically the Steel corporation
was never in as strong position as
now. 1t owns far more ore than ever,
has nearer control of we'll located
raw material than at any preceding

A London newspaper publishes sta
tistics with view to showing that
peoples with large appetites become
the chief nations of the world, and
the nature of the food eaten has a
striking relation to the national char
acter.
Thus, comparing the daily expendi-
ture per head with the exports of a
country, it is found that people who
eat most work most, as this table
shows. The figures in the first col

The dealers stated last night that they
would meet this morning at 10, but this
morning II was decided to hold the meet
ing at this afternoon as 1t was found
impossible for some Of the dealers to be
present at a morning session,
The meeting yesterday afternoon was
without any definite results, though 1t
might be gathered from statements made
by representatives on either side that to-
days meeting might change the aspect Of
the strike.
One dealer this morning said that he
was thoroughly tired OF tho whole pro-
ceedlngs and hoped that the meeting this
afternoon would have some result one
way or the other
WILL HOLD OUT
The dealers are bound to hold out ac-
cording TO the statement OF q prominent
dealer, and will never consent to an
agreement which makes any provision In
regard 20 the hiring OF employees. He said
that the dealers have no discrimination
TO make in regard to hiring union men
and that they were absolutely Indifferent
as to whether their men belonged to labor
unions or not
In answer 10 question as 10 the pros
pect OF a speedy settlement the dealer
said the last agreement drawn up by In
ternational Organizer Lawrence A Grace.
was not satisfactory TO the dealers be-
cause OF a clause inserted which provid-
ed for the collection OF union dues for the
union by the employers so as to do away
with the visits OF the business agents to
the yards. The employers have nothing to
do with the unions business and the
dealers would not agree to transact any
of their business for them.
Continuing the dealer outlined the
dealers position in the present proceed
ings. the sum total OF his remarks being
that after the agreement had been so al
tered that the dealers were not restricted
in their right to hire whom they chose
then there would be nothing in the way
OF a settlement.
