NATION WINNING WAR Will
SURELY Lose. SAYS GARY

Birmingham, Ala, Oct. 39.--About
800 representatives of the leading iron
and steel concerns of the country at
tended the opening session here of the
seventh general meeting of the Amer
lean Iron and Steel Institute. The fea-
ture of to.day's session was an address
by Elbert r Gary, of the U. S. Steel
Corporation and president of the insti'
tute.
Papers and addresses, chiefly of a
technical nature, dealing with various
problems and interests of the industry,
also were on to-day's program, Friday
and Saturday will.be devoted to inspec-
tion trips through the various mines
and iron aud steel plants in the Bir;
mingham district.
'Paradoxieal rs 1t may seem, add
ed MIR. Gary, 'the nation which is sue
cessful in this war will surely lose.
The struggle for commercial supremacy
was the underlying cause of the war
and many believe il representatives OF
the different nations had met in friend
ly spirit to settle the financial interests
involved ali trouble could have been
averted.
Undoubtedly it would be to the
best interests of all the nations Gu
gagged in the present war and to the
world at large If the commercial and
geographical lines of each of these ma
tions colud be substantially preserved.

markets amount to between seven and
eight million dollars. Purchasing agents
of the British and French governments
are in the field and the former has So

against purchases. The meat packers
are said to have enough European or

GERMAN CRUISER is STILL AT
HONOLULU, WHILE JAPS WAIT

Washington, Oct. 29.-Japan is plac-
ing full confidence in the United States,
it was said at the Japanese embassy
to-day, to take proper action in regard
to the German cruiser Geir, which has
been at Honolulu for two weeks. No
protest has been made by Japan, it
was added, against the Geir remaining
so long in an American port, nor has
inquiry been made as to how long the
warship is likely to remain there.
Embassy officials said, however. that
because of the threatened danger to
their commerce. if the Geir should take
to sea again, they were naturally anx-
ious to see the case settled The Ger
man vessel is reported awaiting repairs
to her machinery. \ Japanese warship
is lying outside the 3-mile limit at
Honolulu.
