The Steel Market.

That the market for steel unquestion-
ably has improved to a marked degree
since the abandonment of the stabilizing
plan was finally decided upon Is ad-
mitted by men high up in the steel In
dustry. They declare that business
which has been hanging back for months
awaiting outcome OF the steel price con-
troversy in Washington is coming in
rapidly. In one quarter 1t was asserted
that the figures on untitled orders 10 be
given out at the end OF this month by
the Steel Corporation will show a big
jump from those OF last month. Judge
Gary said yesterday that he knew moth
Ing about an order for 500,o tons Of
steel rails, which II was reported a
short time ago the Corporation had re-
ceived from the French Government
The Judge would not say the story was
not true. but his statement that lie
knew nothing at all about 1t would In
dictate that it is without foundation. At
any rate, zoe steel tonnage figures for
the end OF the month will disclose def
nitely whether or not such an order has
been received,

Actual control OF the Caddo Central
Refining Company passed yesterday to
the Sinclair interests. IL was learned in
an authoritative quarter. 1t was stated
that the stock Is going into what was
known as the Sholan merger on a parity
with Sinclair Oil and Sinclair Gulf
There was an official announcement yes
terday that the name OF the Sholan Com
pany, Inc, would be changed to the Sin
clair Consolidated Refining Company,
and that the number of shares to be is
sued had been increased from 1000, 900
to 100000. II Is not known Just what

The Motor shares.

The spotlight Of market attention centred
on the motor shares at the sound OF the
market gong yesterday and they did not
get out of the limelight all day. Over
Sunday orders fairly swamped the
brokers. and II was only with great diff
ficulty that they were executed. A part
of the buying. at least. which caused
such a furry in these securities may be
laid to the door of rumors of mergers
published In the Sunday newspapers
More merger rumore were in circulation
yesterday. in addition TO those printed
on Sunday. Yesterdays crop brought
the gossip that the General Motors Com
pany is angling for control OF the Ford
company. That story is old enough TO
vote. 1t has been denied by Mr.. Durant
and by Mr.. Ford. but the denials appear
to strengthen the belief in the Street
that such a merger is not only feasible
but entirely probable. While particular
shares were given wide whirls by their
own respective pools. all of the motors
advanced, as did the tire stocks and the
accessories. General Motors and Stude-
baker attracted the most attention by
their pyrotechnics. General Motors
gained 10 points during the day and
Studebaker went up 10%. Allis-
Chalmers gained az. Maxwell 2% and
Pierce Arrow ~. Goodrich advanced 8
points, Kelly Springfield 6% and Key

Big Railroad order Rumored.

In connection with the Improvement
in steel business It was reported yester-
day that the New York Central Railroad
was contemplating the placing OF a
huge order for all classes OF steel prod
ucts which Il would need for a long
time The reason for this, 1t was said,
was the confident belief that steel prices
were not going lower. but, on the con-
trary, would reach new high levels be-
fore many months should have passed.
The New York Central. 1t was said,
would distribute its orders through the
industry and stock up sufficiently TO take
care OF all OF its needs for many months,
thus taking advantage OF prices which
1t believed were lower than they would
be in the near future. One steel man
declared yesterday that the theory that
steel prices would advance about next
September was wrong, He declared that
they would advance before September
from present Indications II was de-
clared yesterday in responsible quarters
that other corporations and users Of steel
and steel products were planning to fol-
low the lead of the New York Central
and stock up on steel products. in an
ucipatlon of much higher prices

Investment PaternaIism.

Under guise OF financing at once need
of extension OF credits to European peo-
pies and countries a conference will be
held in Washington to-day, at which It
Is expected that approval OF a bill drawn
for w. p. G, Harding of the Federal
Reserve Board and providing for a cor
poration with Federal charter, the
Government owning some of the stock
and banks and bankers the rest, will be
given. This corporation Is to have. say,
$500, 100000 capital with which to
undertake boom In foreign trade
There are only two objections to this
procedure-one the fact that Europeans
are devoting sole attention to peAce con-
summation; the other. growing opposi-
ton to paternalism and belief In certain
quarters that the Government should
get out of the banking business. The
meeting is being watched with consider
able interest in financial circles, which
wonder whether the Republicans or
Democrats will exhibit any jealousy in
this matter.

Police Success.

1t is indicated that one of the men
guilty of recent assaults on women in
this region has been identified and the
case stands greatly to the credit of
the police force, which, despite a
heavy burden of work and depleted
personnel, has done the utmost pos
sible on this series of crimes. In
these cases the greatest care is neces-
sary, both to exhaust every possibil-
ity Of apprehension and to avoid in
justice. Fortunately there has been no
hysteria in the pursuit of the crimi-
nals-present opinion is that there is
more than one offender-and sensible
methods have prevailed. Definite as
surance that the men now under ac-
cusation is the assailant in one of the
cases will greatly relieve the COM
munity and ease the strain under
which it has been suffering for nearly
fortnight.

peared to be sufficient unto himself.
His closest friend has been entirely
outside officialdom. Col. House has
neither held Office, nor aspired to Of
fee. He has been answerable for his
part as adviser in public business only
to the President.
1t has been suggested that the
Presidents change of policy is due to
his experience at the peace confer
ence. For the first time, as a men,
Der of a conference he found it nee
essary to confer, and he has discover
ed profit derivabe from listening to
the other fellow.
Whatever the reason for its adop-
ton. the new policy best conforms to
our politics. and the President is to
be congratulated. There will be some
thing in it for him and for others.
He will get clearer idea of what is
going on in Congress from frequent
and intimate contact with those who
are in the thick of the action; and he
should keep we'll informed on that
subject from the best informed
sources.

The President at Home.

The day Of exclusiveness is past.
The latchstring at the White House
hangs on the outside. Everybody now
10 welcome. Come one, come all.
There is much in the announcement.
The President is well advised in the
step he has taken. Well advised, for
two reasons. Let us put the interests
Of the country first.
In the first place, then, the bust
ness of Congress is to be considered.
Unless there is a measure of agree
ment, or understanding, or something,
between the President and Congress,
progress will be difficult, if not i'm
possible; and progress, to a degree,
should be made. A crowded legisla-
tive card faces both Congress and the
executive. They should confer about
matters. As the republicans are re-
sponsible on Capitol Hill, they are en-
titled to . word at the White House,
and presumably will take their turn at
the Presidents ear. They are, of
course, included in the invitation just
issued
In the second place, the President
rs the undisputed leader of his party
should get, and keep, in touch with
representative democrats of all sec.
fions. They are looking to him fol-
suggestions. Some are wondering
whether he wants another term. Some
ere hoping that he does. Some are
for him whether he does or not. AL
will be interested in his decision

The Shantung Question.

SO much has been said about the
it is essential that the full facts be
made public. The Senate has adopted
resolution calling upon the Presi-
dent for copy of an alleged treaty
entered into between Germany and
Japan last October. There is no as
surance that such a treaty exists 1t
has been reported, however, in a news
dispatch that has never been Off
tially substantiated and some off
cial statement should be forthcom-
ing relative to it. 1t was also stated
IN the Senate Yesterday that Japan
had been granted Shantung as a con-
sideration for signing the peace
treaty. On this point the Senate
makes no specific inquiry.
1t is impossible now to prevent a
full clearance of this matter of the
reasons for the grant of a large area
of China to Japan. The United States
has become party to the transaction
by reason of it's participation in the
peace conference, and the signing by
its delegates of the treaty which
transfers the former German holdings
in China to Japan. Though warning
was given yesterday in the Senate
against a stirring of this matter, it
cannot be silenced, and the sooner the
full facts as to the relation of Japan
to the peace treaty, and particularly
the relations between Japan and Ger
many, are made plain the better.
If there was, as alleged, a secret
treaty between Japan, Great Britain,
France and Russia by virtue of which
Japan was enabled to exact the terms
that were written in the treaty at
Paris, the American delegates at the
conference were helpless in any at
tempt that they might have made to
protect China from spoliation. A
statement to that effect was made in
the Senate yesterday. On this point
specific information was not sought.
The subject, however, is certain to be
agitated further. Just at present the
Shantung question transcends in i'm
portance the matter of reservations
to the league of nations covenant as
affecting the main issue of ratification.

Now for the Facts!

t CATION. the Senate subcommittee of
the District committee named to con
duet the probe into the cost of living
able to reach the facts. The subcom
mittee is composed of men known for
their industry and capacity. The
resolution under which they are act
ing puts no limit upon the scope of
their work. They can sit in or out of
session of the Senate, can send for
persons and papers and have full au-
thority of investigation. In these cir
cumstanccs they should be able to as
certain definitely whether the prices
that have prevailed in Washington
Turing the past two years or more
have been eXtortionate in comparison
With other cites, and perhaps they
Fan ascertain the cause of such extor
ton if t has prevailed. As has been
repeatedly stated, the point of CHIEF
interest to the people of Washington :
whether there has been undue proftee:
ing here; whether, in short, the Wash
ington merchants have advanced their
prices unduiy. For the local con
sumers have been the chief sufferers
from the high costs that have undoubt
edly prevailed, not the newcomers, who
have been but a small number in COM
parison with the permanent popula-
ton. 1t the. matter of rents, which
will fall under the committees range
of inquiry, there is hope that from
this investigation, which should be
promptly pressed, will come some form
of fair rent regulation law that will
be protective to both tenants and
property owners. The District should
have had such law months ago.

Bernstorf Falls Short.

Unfattering though the reputation
of Count Won Bernstorff as a prophet
in American policy may be in this
country, in Germany he is today re-
garded as the highest available au-
thority on such subjects. Recent ex-
pressions on his part relative to a pro-
American policy in Germany and its
attendant advantages to that country
will there be needed with an attentive
ear. So it is pity that the count
missed real chance to be of service to
his fellow countrymen at last.
He wrote of the benefits that would
accrue to Germany when that coun-
try, having been admitted to the
league of nations, should find itself at
the side Of the United States in the
task of binding peoples together
across the frontiers of states. He &C.
curately advised his public that Amer
lea must be convinced that militarism
in Germany is dead and that Germany
has no intention of fostering a So
cialist world revolution. But he
stopped short of his big chance.
For what his fellow countrymen
need to have explained to them by one
whose words carry the weight of sym
pathy as well as accuracy is not what
will happen when the present shall
have become the past, but the facts of
