Board of Trade has an important part. Through it the private riti-
yer can get together and put their united strength behind a move
raent in such a way that its influence is bound to be felt.
Because of this great influence that a Board OF Trade Yields IN
a community it is particularly desirable that it should have at its
head men of ability, liberal minded and capable Of looking far enough
into the future to see the results Of something that may be only in its
infancy today. If Perth Amboy is to be made the city that its well
wishers expect it to be the plans of today must be big enough to in

big cahbrc to measure up to this standard and lit is gratifying to know
that Perth Amboy has men Of that stripe at the head of the Board OF
Trade.
As great as have been the accomplishments of the past, the city,
ever looking forward, anticipates the coming year and the decades to
follow with the utmost optimism. With her citizens in all walks OF
life united in a great civic body such a s the Board of Trade, all work

Aside from the government the U.

In the readjustment of industrial
details from the abnormal conditions
of war to those of peace the attitude
of the great steel company must have
a decided effect not only directly in
the whole steel business, but, senti-
mentally in many other lines.
Without assuming to speak with
authority as to what the u S. Steel
Corporation intends to do, It can be
said with confidence that Judge Gary
and his associates have adopted a
plan about as follows:
There viii be no cut in wages until
the situation demonstrates the need

The corporation, in view of the i'm
possibility to keep steel prices up to
war levels, has begun to bring them
down to what is the legitimate level.

and amounted to about 10 per cent.

plates.
There will be another cut in the
next thirty or forty-fve days.
This will be followed, IL is expected
in April or about the first of May, by
