PROHIBITION BENEFICIAL
70 INDUSTRY, SAYS GARY
Declares Disposition to Work and
Produce Has Been Materially
Diminished.

NEW YORK. July 23.-Prohibition
has been beneficial to the nations in
dustrial and economic life, in the
opinion of Ebert H. Gary, head of the
United States Steel Corporation, who
issued a statement here on the eve
of his departure for Europe, giving
his views on the business outlook
generally.
The disposition to work and pro-
duce has been materially diminished,
according to Mr.. Gary. He cited an
instance by which he said in order to
remove and replace a headlight on a
locomotive "it has been necessary to
employ four different men. because of
labor regulations, where one man
heretofore performed the same serv-
ice in less time.
The rule has prevailed" he said,
of doing as little work as possible
and of securing as large pecuniary
results as could be obtained However,
somewhat to my surprise, 1 have as
certained upon inquiry in the last
thirty or forty days that labor at our
various plants is more efficient per
man than it has been at any time be-
fore during the last fivesyears."
No conflict exists between capital
and labor, he declared. troubles in the
past having been between employers
and labor union leaders,. He referred
to the high wages being paid for la
Dor. But it has not been paid too
much" he continued
