THE IRON AND STEEL TRADE

which IL to be announced on the tenth
AZ July. is based upon the probability OF
a very considerable increase in orders.
Gucsses range from four million to five
millions against 42s2,31O tons for the
last statement. The depressicA which
was the rule in the iron and steel bust
ness for the spring and for the early
part of the summer seems definitely TO
have passed away. and. so far as pros
poets 90, the business is assured OF reas-
enable activity for the rext several
months to come. The automobile trad"
has been the largest consumer OF iron
and steel products. Two orders. each FOR
! about 500, 900 tons, have been placed by
individual manufacturers, while other
makers Of machines have bought in less
amounts, but very literally.

now free to buy in something like tho

in most cases succumbed to the allure

the idea that Secretary Lanes scheme
is to give them something That is
not true. His scheme is to sell them
the land on the instalment plan, the
government to take mortgage at

Would Abolish War Clerks
another thing that has impressed
me is the reluctance of some of my
Republican colleagues to cut down on
the war work in the Washington Of

employees on the payrolls of the gov
eminent than were on a year ago, with
the war under full Roadway The peo-
Pile elected a Republican House last
fall to cut down those war payrolls,
and the only way to cut them down
is to cut off the appropriations that
are unwarranted.

Cash Instead of Land
For Soldiers Is Urged
Iowa Representative Charges
Plan to Dispose of Swamp,
Arid or Stump Realty

WASHINGTON, June 7.-Repres sent
alive Boies, Republican of Iowa, test.-
flying to-day before the House Pub
lie Lands Committee, attacked Sec
rotary Lanes plan for farms for SOL
diers and sailors as "a scheme prim
arily backed by men who have land
swamp, stump or arid--to dispose Of"
Declaring that he voiced the sentiment
of the Iowa delegation in Congress, Mr..
Boies urged that the government give
the men cash, with no strings at
tached."
Representative Boies said that while
he regarded Secretary Lane and many
supporters Of the proposed legislation
as sincere in their effort to aid the
service men, the judgment of other
supporters Knight be challenged be-
cause of their interest"
Thousands are at work." he added,
ito foist this colossal reclamation
scheme on the country"
Captain Ellis Bashore, rehabilitation
officer at Camp Shelby, Miss, told the
committee that q recent straw vote of
700 soldiers at the camp showed that
81 per cent desired to acquire a farm
under the proposed Lane plan. He
added that from talks with the men he
was convinced they preferred to re-
ceive land rather than cash bonus.
Chairman Sinnott announced that
hearings probably would be closed
early next week. Several committee
men are understood to favor leeisle-
ton embodying the Lane Plan.

WASHINGTON, June 7.-Senatorial
inquiry into the case of Miss Alice
Wood, teacher in Washington high

ator Jones, Of Washington, introduced
the resolution for inquiry, which was
adopted by the Senate on Friday
The trial of Miss Woods case before
the District of Columbia Supreme
Court is expected to be held next Sat
urday, but as the school authorities
and the attorney for the teachers have
not yet reached an agreement on the
facts in the case, it may be DELAYED.
The High School Teachers Associa-
ton will have charge Of the public's
side of the senatorial investigation.
Senator Sherman, of the District of
Columbia Committee, IS expected to
name special committee from the
Senate early next week to conduct the
inquiry.
The teachers are particularly anxious
to inquire into the reasons as to why
they do not receive their salary checks
many times until month late, and
why it was necessary to rush to Con-
gress few days ago for $1,000 for
teachers salaries because the school
funds were short that amount.

nessec, otficiated, and in an address
praised the hero Other state officials
attended the wedding, and it was made
the occasion for speeches of eulogy
and congratulations
There were more than $500 present,
the biggest gathering ever held in the
little mountain village at Three Forks
of Wolf.
Housewives of the mountains had
prepared the feast. and the big com
pany ate at long tables under the trees
Hogs and beeves were slaughtered, and
many turkeys and geese were set be-
fore the rustic banquet of the hero
and his bride. Though showery clouds
threatened for time early in the day,
all nature was smiling when the hour
OF the ceremony drew near.
Attired in a simple frock, the bride
went to the rustic altar with the big
mountainecr, who still wore his SER
geant's uniform, and on his breast the
medals of three nations that had recog-
nized his valor and prowess in the
Argonne. The scene reflected the
frank simplicity of the mountaineers,
with their whole-hearted hospitality.
Sergeant York and his bride will re-
main in their mountain cottage until
Monday. when they will leave for
Nashville From there they will go to
the rotary convention in Salt Lake
City.
York and his bride received many
handsome presents. Mrs. York's we'd
ding ring WAS presented by the suf-
fragists Of the state. She received
wrist watch from the Nashville Rotary
Club. Another present from the Ro-
tarians is the offer of honeymoon trip
to Salt Lake City, which was accepted.

" Special Cable Service
BALTIMORE, Md, June 7.-German
maze goods continue to arrive in Balti-
more, despite the fact that many pro-
vests have been put on record all over
the country. 1t is asserted that the
goods were diverted from New York
because of opposition to them there.
lhere has been a disposition on the
part OF the war mothers of Maryland
TO initiate the Boston Tea Party by
holding "doll party" in Baltimore.
THIS morning the Dutch steamer
AndlJk arrived, bringing about 5000
crates Of German toys, chinaware and
crockery. This is the second cargo to be
delivered in Baltimore, the steamship
Sloterdyjk having brought $500 crates
two weeks ago. The Sloterdyjk is now
on her way back to Rotterdam for more
OF the same merchandise.
The toys and tableware were BOUGHT
IN 1914 by Borgfeld e. Co., of New
York. Germany. When the war broke
out they were sent to Rotterdam Hol-
land, TOR shipment to the United States.
but attempts to complete the shipments
were frustrated when the United States
got INTO the war.
The Sloterdyjk brought cargo val
ued at three-quarters of a million dol
lars, and that of the Andijk is worth
nearly 100000. Rotterdam ware
houses still have thousands of crates
OF German toys and crockery awaiting
shipment to the United States through
Baltimore.
The first opposition to the goods ap-
peared in New York about three months
ago, when it was learned that the toys
were coming to that city SO great
was the protest that Baltimore was
selected as the port to receive them.
When the Sloterdyjk arrived here the
war mothers Of Maryland held indig-
nation meetings. One war mother has
suggested that party be organized,
similar to- that in Boston, Jas years
ago, to dump overheard every crate
of goods that bears the "Made in Ger
many" stamp.
No effort will be made to DISPOSE
of the goods here. They will be shipped
to New York for distribution or stor-
age until the feeling against them dies
down, if it ever does.

Troops Would Take Farms

Representative Bertrand H. SHELL of
Potsdam, q prominent member of the
New York delegation, last night de-
clared his opposition to Secretary
Lanes bill calling for an appropriation
of $o00,00O,000 for land settlements for
soldiers of the world war.
II am willing to vote for an appro-
priation Of s5,o00.O00, but I think it
would be a crime to appropriate the
huge sum that Secretary Lane axis for
a purely experimental industrial en-
terprise,' said Mr.. Smell. "It seems to
me that a common-sense thing to do
first is to find out how many of our
returning soldiers wish to take up
farming. 1t should not take long to
take complete census of soldiers out
of employment. do not believe that
any considerable percentage Of soldiers
now out of employment wish to take up
farming, either temporarily or perma-
nently
Many to Stay in Cities
From every agricultural section of
the United States call has gone out
for labor. Soldiers returning from the
other side know about this farm labor
shortage. They do not take up farm
work. for the reason that they do not
like it. Many Of the unemployed SOL
diers are from the farms. They have
