 WASHINGTON, July 26--W With full Japanese participation in the disarm- ament conference regarded as finally assured, American officials in charge of the conference plans are begin ming to give earnest consideration to the date of meeting as the next step in the diplomatic preliminaries-
 Such exchanges as have taken place regarding the meeting date are undefstood to have been informal. pending a definite statement of Japan's consent to enter fully into the discussions From now on, how ever, the subject will be given greater prominence with the United States leaning strongly toward late fall as the most advantageous time
 Official word of Japan's willingness to discuss Far Eastern questions had not reached the state department to- night but officials showed much qualification over news dispatches saying such a decision had been reached by Japanese cabinet. It has been the desire here to clear away these preliminarfes quickly though confidence has been apparent that Tokio would interpose no ob- stacle to the unreserved discussion desired.
 Once Japan definitely has prepared to come into the conference here without self-imposed restrictions and reservations. it is the belief here that the participating powers can reach an agreement without difficulty re- garding the program of the sessions
 The date of meeting however. is a consideration of some importance which will have to be decided before the formal invitations go out. Amer ican officials have emphasized that they desires to get the delegates to- gother as soon as practicable, though they. have no intention of attemptins to dictate what day shall be selected They have suggested Armistice day Nov. II.
 Whether that time will be accept able generally to the other powers is unknown here, but news reports from abroad have indicated Great Britain in particular might favor delaying the meeting until spring. Much data must be prepared by each nation for use during the consultations here large staffs must be organized and many physical arrangements made in addition to reaching an agreement on the program.

Charges
 Folk Dancing In
 Schools Immoral
rRepubIican A. p. Leased Wirel

SACRAMENTO. Calif., July 2e- The question of whether folk dances as taught in the public schools of California were immoral was submit ted on briefs in the third district court of appeals here today in the appeal of c. c. Hardwick against the trustees of the Fruit Ridge school district of Sacramento county.
 Hardwick's two children were ex- pelled from the school by action of the trustees because the parents re- fused to allow them to participate in the folk dances given as part of the physical training course. on the ground it was contrary to their re- ligious belief.
 Hardwick instituted proceedings in the superior court where he sued to compel reinstatement of his children and for $500 damages.
 Judgment was given the trustees when Hardwick's attorneys failed to amend their complaint after the court had sustained the defendants de- murrer.

GARY PREDICTS FUTURE

IRepubiIcan A. F. Leased WIre1
 NEW YORK, July 26.-The United States Steel corporation reported to-. day that it's earnings for the quarter ending June 30 were $21 1892, 016. the smallest of any quarter since March, 1915, just prior to the war boom, when they fell to s12.45f .sos.
 Regular dividends of 1% per cent on the preferred shares and 1l4 on the common were declared, but to meet the requirements of the com mon dividend. on which only s5 cents was earned, it was necessary to draw from the corporation's huge undivid- ed surplus
 Analysis of the corporations monthly business shows earnings of ST ,336. .655 in April, $7.731, 649 in May. and $6.823,712 in June.
 Net income for the second quarter amounted to SIS, ,226. .509. against $20,- 656,3 in the preceding period. This item would have shown more drastic reduction but charges and allowances for depreciation were much smaller than in the first quarter of the year.
 Chairman Ebert H. Gary issued a statement in which he stated that the business results for the quarter were not surprising to any one famil-
 
 added that many manufacturing con- cerns have been operating at a loss This, he declared. is no less censur- able than insisting upon "uncon- scionable profits" and cannot be long continued. Commenting upon the fu- ture, he said:
 AAs stated ak the meeting of
 tho American Iron and Steel in-
 stitute last May, industry is head
 cd in the right direction. This
 means . great deal, for at some
 date in the future there awaits
 the biggest business this country
 has ever witnessed. The funda-
 mental facts for this conclusion
 are assured. The undisputed fig.
 ures amount to demonstration.
 Just at present there are many reasons for believing our conditions are improving, even though we may not as yet have experienced, to a large textent, the good results. Re- adjustments were necessary and they have been progressing with beneficial effects,
 "The financial aspect of this coun- try ana other countries has been i'm. proving and to most of us at least looks bright The banking institu- tions of the United States are sound. Our resources are enormous; our people are ready. anxious and able to do business. Every one is called on to do his or her part in the en- deavor to return to sane and req sonaDle basis. and the sooner this opinion becomes practically unani- nous, the earlier will we reach the goal of prosperity, the apparent dis tance of which depends on individual vision"

Expect Football
to Enjoy Banner
Year in Indiana
Athletic Directors Already
Getting Prepared for Siren
uOus Year.

INDIANA OILS, Aug. 20-Tabu-
lations of last years gate receipts
show that college football enjoyed
its greatest season in Indiana in
1920. Athletic directors and mana
gers however, expect even a greater
popularity for the grid sport this
year. To meet this expected de-
mand they have framed the longest
and toughest schedules on record.
High schools, too, will return to
football as their greatest sport, ac-
cording to indications, and the prep
gridIron activity in Indiana this year
is expected to be the most extensive
and successful since 1906 and 1907,
when the sport lost favor.
II is not known how this trend TO
football will affect high school bask-
etball, which has been the backbone
OF Indiana prep athletics for a de-
oade. College men who are anxious
TO preserve Indiana's supremacy in
the high school basketball field in
America and at the same time groom
youngsters for college football are
urging that the two sports Will not
conflict, but rather will coordinate
with track and tennis as an all-year
cycle of physical and athletic de-
velOpment.
Because Of the fact that the ma
jority Of Hoosier colleges will play
their first football games this year
on Sept. "a and because Of the fore
casted carly autumn. it is probable
that Indiana collegiate coaches viii
spend little time on general training
and conditioning periods this year,
but will go almost Immediately into
signal work and versity scrub scrim-
mage. College football camps viii
open IN almost every instance or
either Sept. 10 or u. Many athletic
directors and coaches already are
