BUSINESS
IMPROVES
Dun's Review Shows
Gain of 3 Per Cent
for July

Clearings through the banks In
July reflect the improving condi.
tions In general business, the total
at all the leading cities In the Unit.
ed States, according to the state
ment prepared by Dun's Review,
which includes returns from 1873
centers, amounting to $1&.s60.074,ssO
an increase of so per cent as com
pared with the same month last
year and OF l0.l per cent as con-
trasted with the corresponding
month In 1918.
To a considerable extent this fav.
orable exhibit Is due to the expan'
sion at New York city. that center
reporting gains OF 6.3 and 1874 per
cent. respectively. over the similar
weeks in the two Immediately pre-
ceding years. While much OF this
improvement Is owing to the
marked increase In the operations
In the stock and other speculative
markets. as well rs to several fair
sized financial transactions. II car
also be safely regarded rs a reiec
ton OF broadening activity In com
mercial and industrial lines.
This Is indicated by the better
showing made by a greater number
OF cities outside New York. where
speculation exerts much less infiu
ence on bank clearings than at the
leading center. However. consider
able irregularity still prevails. with
more or less falling on at numerous
points. so that the total for all sec
tons Is IL per cent smaller than
last year and only OF per cent in
excess OF the same week two years
ago.
Bank clearings for July in score
OF the chief business centers OF the
agricultural sections In the west
show an increase OF a. per cent
over July, 1914. and OF per cent
over the same month In 1913.

Printers Convention to Be History

LOS ANGELTS Cal. Aug. T.
When President Marsden G. Scott.
Of the international Typographical
union opens the sixty-frst session Of
that organization on Aug. 3. IL will
be q history-making event for this
city. as II will be the FIRST time an
international labor union has held
Its convention in the City OF the An

For this city was long known as
the bulwark Of the open shop and
the manufacturers' associations did
not encourage or give aid to labor
conventions or labor unions.
II was hard task to dissipate
anti-union feeling. but persistent ef-
fort won square deal for the union
lists, and now Los Angeles has a
prominent place on the map Of asso-
ciated labor.
The local typographical union has
made preparations to entertain s.
900 delegates, ex-delegates and their
families.

year OF S104.952.
The increase OF more than $780,
600 In this years receipts breathes
an optimism that whifrs away calam-
ity howlers on business depression.
This from the presidents report
emphasizes his policy: Our union
In a selling organization: We supply
employers with skilled and efficient
workmen; our success depends upon
the amount OF our sales and the
prices received; We must not rest
content with the volume OF business
we are doing; thousands OF employ
ers are not customers and we must
find the way TO place them on our
lists"
The average earnings per member
per year were $l,026,51 the paid-up
membership for 1915 was 1851, an
increase of 1904 over the previous
year; more than 100 unions secured
scale increases in the year ended
May 81.
President Scott takes a strong
position on violations OF contracts
and scales, and sui mits a law to
govern such attractions: recon-
mcnds legislation that will prevent
abuse OF the label; takes the stand
that members holding situations

The military governor and his

Rn UNITED PRESS.

TURIN. Aug. Italian troops
have stormed and captured the sum-

the peaks dominating Goritz. Dis
patches received here today said the
Italian attacks have been renewed
with a ferceness that makes the
fall of the Austrian fortress In the

The slopes OF Podgora. dominat-

the Bersaglieri began their savage
attacks three days ago. italian gun
ners first wrecked Austrian con-
crete and armored trenches half
way up the height. forcing the de-
tenders to retreat toward the crest.
From this position, however, the
enemy swept the slopes with a hot
fire. All reports agree that the Ital-
ians suffered heavy losses.

|. No blow can be struck at booze
without hurting every other kind of
organised vice. For liquor Is what
may be called q parent evil.
Production OF placards making
graphic the evils of drink has been
. recent development Of the tenn
perancs movement. The procuring
and posting of these Is a practicable
service for young peoples societies.
Countless jests and caricatures
and comedies have been built on the
antics of the drunkard. The doings
OF a man under the influence OF
drink have been q historic source OF
merrtment. Even yet the antics Of
an intoxicated man make many per
sons laugh. A reaction against this
has set in; thinking men and wo-
men realize that drunkenness is not
y comedy but q tragedy. A definite
contribution Of the temperance re
form IL the personal resolution
never to laugh At drunkards or
drunkenness or at jests about them.

Some degree Of greatness is re-
Quired to enable one to hate and op-
pose the liquor business while at
the same time maintaining an atti-
tude of sincere friendliness for the
liQuordealer himself. The church
wants to be . friend to the saloon
keeper, the brewery worker and
every other man In any wise engag-
Cd In the tranlc. An attitude of per-
sopal interest In the individual
whose business we loathe is the
only Christian attitude.
The reign Of the Christ spirit In
life drives out whatever hurts and
the fullest development Of
mans best self. That Is why the
church Is against the liquor bust
ness.
A life Of sobriety and wholesome
good cheer and friendliness Is the
best Of all temperance tracts.
