UNITED KINGDOM EXPECTS TO LEAD
 IN STEEL OUTPUT

LONDON, March 12.-Belief that because of the high cost of produc- tion of iron and steel in America, the United States will not be able successfully to compete with Great Britain in neutral markets, is ex pressed in trade circles here, says a statement made by the American Chamber of Commerce in London.
 The United Kingdom, it was as serted, will maintain first place in these industries if it gets assistance from the State and has no trouble from labor. Great activity is to be seen among manufacturers who are converting their machinery to a peace basis. To meet the demands of steel makers the Government is seeking to secure 100000 tons of pig iron from the United States for delivery this year
 Germany, the chief pre-war com petitOr of Great Britain, has tenn porarily, at least, been removed from the field. Twenty years ago Great Britain exported four times as much steel as Germany but in the last year before the war, it is said Ger many exported a million tons more than Great Britain.

about half this amount will go to la bor.
 The $300,O00,000 of construction es- timated will not be sufficient to make up deferred war construction, it is believed, for normally the sum spent on roads in the United States is not far below $300,000,O00, and during war times road building came almost to a stop in many localities.
 Estimates prepared for the follow ing States are considered accurate within one or two per cent, accord ing to officials of the Department of Agriculture:
 Maine, $1,5O0,00O; Rhode Island, $9O,0OO; Connecticut, $4,0OO,OOO; New York, $12,OOO,OO; New Hampshire, $175,00O;; Kentucky, $1,50O,O00; Ala bama, $1,000,000; West Virginia, $16,- 100000; Illinois, $9,OO0,OOO; Iowa, $15,- 574,0O0; Louisiana, $4,674,0O0; Texas, $2O,0OO,000; Nebraska, $1,657, ,0S9, ,07; North Dakota, $3,O0O,00O; Wyoming, $653,O00; Colorado, $3,900.000; Cali fornia, $2O,OO0,OOO; Arizona, $9O0,O00; Nevada, $1,14S,S49S0; Idaho, $1,000,. 900.

resented it-not only for the sake of

And so II was on the 1,h OF July.
Mommy Lou came to New York to ar
range a sailing on the steamship Cam
bria TO some foreign port where Mar
jorie. amidst the glamor OF new faces
and friends. as Mommy Lou planned so
psychologically, would forget all
about her puppy fascination for Jack
Fuller.
She was to send for Marjorie and
her governess within a few days, and
they would shop together in New York
and then sail away. San Salvador
was the place Momry Lou had chosen,
and the change and scenery and eli
mate she hoped would be sufficient 10

ed for its lustrous beauty. But her
soft brown eyes told the world that
hidden somewhere II their bottomiess
pools there was a memory, perhaps
great sorrow.
No one that Lucy knew had ever
been able to wrest from her lips the
cause of the sadness In those eyes.
Five years before Mary Ann met
Lucy Aldridge in Kempner Company's
department store. Mary Ann was a
buyer for the waist department Lucy
had started to learn the great bust
ness Of selling" waists.
Lucy came from the American melt
ing pot, the East Side of New York.
Her parents, needing her financial as
sistance. however slim. sent her to
work in the store almost as soon as
she graduated from school.
A hard winter and a slim purse saw
both of Lucy's parents carried off to
the land beyond the sun during an
epidemic OF pneumonia.
For years Mary Ann had longed TO
mother a girl like Lucy. She was not
a rich woman. but she had a modest
little four-room apartment, a good sal
airy and unbounded affection.
And so Lucy came to live with Mary
Ann.

bathroom. MY slippers are a sight

lines around his tender blue eyes lent
a certain mellowness to their express

His immaculate linen and clothing
OF superior workmanship bespoke the
man of means, the gentleman.
Almost an hour had passed. The
little group talked on every topic Of
general interest Finally Joe said:

you went away 10 Brazil. Dad says

Mr.. wallingford arose and walked
toward the window. Outside II was
refreshingly cool. Gay groups OF
young folks sauntered toward the riv-
er, to dance on the evening boats. 1t
was summer, loves time, Cupid
reigned supreme.
Presently he looked toward Joe and
Lucy.
