called war orders play only a small
part in this revival. Export business
is about fifth of the total industry.
and much OF that is outside the
munitions demand"
If the World bases It's assertion on
export figures, 1t is utterly fallacious.
War orders made Bethlehem Steel
jump to 1862. That company now has
orders for 5000 field guns from the
English war office. and has orders up
to date for 800, ,000,O 900 worth Of
material. and more coming.
War orders justified Hudson Maxim's
statement that EVERY steel and
powder company in the country is
building additional plants"
War orders have given the Pressed
Steel Car company a $S0,0O0,000 con-
tract for the delivery of shrapnel shell
to Russia.
The Carnegie Steel Company has
one order for $4,000 tons of steel bars
from one company which is engaged
in machining shells.
Cleveland and Pittsburgh firms are
figuring on 1876, 900 tons of steel to be
used in the manufacture of shells.
Steel bars, rails, pig iron, etc., sold
by the steel companies to other manu-
featuring companies to be made up
into munitions of war will not show
up as exports. They are the raw mate
rial of shrapnel, shell, gun carriages
and guns, and all the thunderbolts of
war.
II the United States continues to be
the commissariat of the warning
nations, even the peaceful ploughshare
will be affected by war orders and its
sale increased that new lands may be
prepared for the sower.
It has been estimated that food
stuffs and other war supplies shipped
war aggregate $1,000, 100000, and so
far as guns and ammunition are con-
cerned the real shipments have
scarcely begun. This entails the move
ment of huge shipments of freight to
the seaboard, and that means large
additional orders for steel rails for
trackage. They are not exported, but
their sale was due to war orders.
The efforts of the World and pro-
ponents of the Democracy in general,
to make people believe that the de-
preston in the United States which
set in months before the war in
Europe commenced, was due to the
war, and, on the other hand, to con-
vince them that the revival of in
dustry in the last few months is due
anything but the war, is too ridiculous
for serious consideration.

WHEREf
BY Wing Dinger

Word went forth to each employe,
Down at our shop to-day,
AS to when on a vacation
Each could plan to go away.
For some weeks it's been the one thing
Everybody's talked about
And they've kicked because the sched-
ule
Was so long in coming out.
So. when 1t came out this morning
I thought I would try to learn
Where they'd spend the restful period
For which each one seemed to yearn,
But when I put forth the question.
well. where do you think you'u go ?"
Every time 1 got the answer,
Really. Wing. do not know"
Guess when they investigate, as I have,
Just how much it costs to roam
And check up their little bank books
Quite like me. they'll stay at home.

EXAMPLES FOR AUTOIsTs

CTATE HIGHWAY COMMIS-
y SIONER CUNNINGHAM took
radical, but entirely proper, action
yesterday when he revoked the auto
mobile license of a Johnstown man
who had pleaded guilty of operating
his car while under the influence of
liquor. No man who has been drink
ing has any right behind the steering
wheel of an automobile. Driving a
otor-propelled vehicle requires a
clear head and q steady nerve. A
brain befuddled by strong drink and
muscles that are sluggish with alcohol
are a menace to the motorist and
pedestrians alike when they try to
guide a car over the road. The high
ways must be kept safe and Mr.. Cum
ningham has taken the right course.
A few such examples and drunken
10y riders" speed maniacs and other
violators of the automobile laws will
learn that the Department does not
mean to trifle and there will be fewer
violations of traffic regulations. No
man who is reckless of his own safety
or that of others should be permitted
to have State auto license.

DR.. Francis E. Smiley began the

noon in the First M e. church. The
afternoon audience was large but at
night the great auditorium was fill
ed before Prof. Hanson began the de-
votional services. DR.. Smiley has
striking physique and strong per

forcible. He appears to have none
of the Billy Sunday pulpit antics. He
presents his propositions much as
lawyer would clear, forcible, logical

and when he reaches it his hearers
are with him and almost without
knowing it. His diction is clear and
pleasing. The large audience Sun

critical, seemed highly satisfied with
what they had seen and heard, anc
many expressed their strong conyic-

such an awakening as has not rec

DR.. Smiley and Rev. Hanson claim

would necessarily have to be largely
devoted to getting our bearings

abnndantly and were at perfect ease
and in fine spirits at the close of the
