FEDERAL INQUIRY.

BIRMINGHAM, Sept. 1S.-The
presence of five companies of militia,
together with reports of the legisla-
lures plans for speedy considers
ton of the bill providing for COM
mission to regulate the coal indus
try had a quieting effect in the
strike districts of jefferson and
Walter counties today.
Reports reaching here this morn
ing to the effect that feeling be-
tween the mine guards and strikers
had lessened considerably with the
appearance of the militia. Three
arrests have been made in connec-

and two others wounded
In a statement today President
Kennamer, of the Alabama mine
workers, calls upon Governor Kilby

abide by the results of such an in

BUSINESS OUTLOOK.
PANIC BOGEY FADES AWAY, PRICES ARE
DECLINING, LABOR is MORE EFFICIENT
BY JOHN w. HILL
Financial ESitor Iron Trade Review
and Daily Iron Trade.

ONLY a few months ago the conn
" try was being frightened BY the
DOGGY of an autumn panic. But, ike
most of the calamities predicted for
this year, the financial goblin has not
materialized.
Instead, there have come slightly
easier money and the assurance chat
the worst of the credit strain is over
This does not mean that defiation has
been completed, however. 1t mere
ly shows that the descent from the
dizzy war imitation will be made with
out a violent shock to general condi-
tons.
The present outlook is for con-
tinued gradual commodity price de-
clines. This is due to a number of
things, chief Of which is the public's
revolt against war prices in peace
times. When the public stopped buy
ing, it suddenly was discovered that
the alleged scarcity of goods was
really due to manipulation or to the
abnormal demand.
AS result, the cry of under-pro-
duction is little heard now. Short
ages of silk, wool, cotton, clothin,
automobiles. tires, lumber, building
material, sugar and other products
changed over night into awkward
SURPRISES. This has created a buy
ers' market in most lines.
Business firms, stunned by cancel
lations and a slumping demand are
whetting their axes for orders. Buy
ers who were scorned six months ago
are being courted now. AS usually
happens in a declining market. how
ever, buyers are gun-shy, and hand
to-mouth purchasing is the rule. This
is causing backing up all along the
line. though the pinch is more Sc
we're at some spots than in others.
The Nations Crops.
An important counteracting fac
tor, tending to sustain demand, is
the prospect for enormous crops. Ac-
cording to the governments latest re-
port the wheat yield will be 770.000,-
600 bushels. and corn 3,131 100000
bushels. If present high grain prices
are maintained. the farmers win
WELD a huge potential purchasing
power in the commoditv markets this
fall. The late E. Fl. Hartman used
to say that big crops and prosperity
were synonymous.
Indication of Contraction.
Indicators that fundamental eco
nOmic changes are taking place in
clude: Increasing commercial fail
ures, declining commodity prices
drinking bank clearings, GROWING
unemployment decreasing exports
md highor imports industrial cur
+ailment and stock market liquida-
ton
Iron and Steel.
Even the iron and steel industry.
which has presented the strongest
front of all is beginning to feel the
pinch of reduced buying and cancel
lations. This is shown by the drop
of more than 100000 tons in un-
filed orders of the United States
Steel Corporation during August.
American Wooden Co.
Re-opening of the mills of the
American Wooden Co. has attra oted
widespread attention It's quotations

still are about $50 per cent, or more,
above pre-war prices. This in face
of the fact that raw wool, a drug on
the market, has settled back virtually
to the pre-war level.
Tires
Although liquidation in the en-
tire industry was exceptionally dras-
tic, the large companies are in better
financial shape now than seemed pos
sible few months ago. Production
has been cut and surplus stocks are
being reduced. In the spring, when
the automobile business was boom
ing, tire-makers geared up their
plants for an enormous output. Deal
ers were stocked up to the guards.
Then the bottom crashed. Raw rub

pound before the war is now about

been thrown out of work in Akron.
the worlds rubber center. They have
all been absorbed elsewhere, how
ever. An Akron employment mana
ger recently said that when he want
ed to hire men he had to go out and
look for them. Tire prices have held
firm. but recessions are expected be-
fore the end of the year
Employment and Wages.
A survey of 25 states by the De-
partment of Labor shows unemplov-
ments increasing. while absorption
Of surplus labor is decreasing. The
country is not facing serious I'M
employment problem, however. Prin-
cipal reductions in working hours and
forces have occurred in the auto
motive. tire and textile industries.
Freight Movements.
Under private ownership and with
labor troubles over, railroad freight
car movements are exceeding rec
ords established at the peek of the
war pressure in 1918. AS a result.
the congestion of goods is melting
together with the choicest argument
of the profteer. Freight rate ad-
vances have not had the predicted eff
feet of raising prices. because COM
retition and deiation are preventing
sellers from lacking on new freight
charges.
