| BUSINESS RECOVERY
rs NOT YET GENERAL
Indications of Broad Coins
Still Lacking, Says Board.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 3t.--Indications
of a broad general business recovery
throughout the country are still lacking,
according to the review OF financial and
economic conditions during August
lssueu tonight by the Federal Reserve
Board.
slight improvement" the Board said.
I'm some branches OF foreign trade,
fairly good agricultural yields and en-
largemeht of manufacturing demands
seem to point to more favorable
autumn season, but the situation Is not
such as to forecast any extensive or inn
mediate revival OF business in large
sense
Heavy movement OF agricultural
products to market, FASTENED by u re-
vival Of fair export demand. the Board
declared was the outstanding economic
activity of the month.
Taking up the employment problem
the Board asserted that large figures
tor unemployment have been transmitted
TO Congress. but It should be remembered
that these figures are based on COM
PARSONS with peak periods OF employ
ment in 1920. There are Indications of
increasing employment In various manu-
featuring industries, but taken as a
whole the employment situation for
August appears to show but little change
from the preceding month"

BERLIN AND PARIS
REDUCING DEBTS
Financial Progress Is Slow
American Exchange and
National City Views.

Aside from politics the chief problem
confronting Europe Is balancing OF gov
ernnensai receipts and expenditures in
the countries afflicted by the evils OF
currency inflation."' in the opinion Of
the American Exchange National Bank.
That institution in It's monthly letter as
serts that the main solution Of the prob
lem, SO far as France Is concerned. lies
in internal measures. such as the redur-
ton of expenditures, the modification Of
programmes and higher taxes.
mo substantial progress has been
made along this line In either France or
Germany the bank points out. but
some progress has been made In each,
and more is promised and Is reasonably
TO be expected. France has gone
further in overtaking her expenditures
with receipts than appears from super
ficicl study OF her fiscal statistics.
Her statistics indicate diminishing
rate of increase in her public debt and
a small decrease In circulation in June.
1891. as compared with December. 1920.
AS the revenue problem Is lessened or
made greater In accordance with
progress or the lack of it In preventing
an increase In the public debt and circu-
lation. this evidence OF a halt In expan-
sion is distinctly Important, for the fact
tends toward making a basis for the
erection OF tax programme common
surate with the needs of the Govern
nlent.'
The decentralization and poverty in
| Europe resulting from the war is not
the chief cause Of the present depres-
sion in industry, although u factor. but
! the principal reason is the "unbalanced
state of industry as between the pro-
ducors Of primary products on the one
hand and the producers OF manufac-
tured products and the groups engaged
In trading and transportation on the
other" according to the National City
Bank, in its monthly circular on bust
| ness conditions. South America and
Asia, 1t points out. export primary
products at such low prices that their
exports and imports do not balance.
while the exchange rates are against
them to such an extent that their pur-
chases are restricted. Until the situa-
ton changes in this respect II is added,
trade cannot become normal.
There seems to be nothing to do but
allow the economic forces to work things
out in their own relentless way" the
circular says. The workers In each
industry have the privilege of saying
that they Will not come down until
everybody else does. and perhaps not
then. Nobody has authority to say who
Shall come down first, or that anybody
shall come down. They will have to
settled 1t among themselves"

IMPROVED DEMAND
FOR IRON AND STEEL
Black and Galvanized Sheets
Drop-Japan a Buyer and
China Is In Market.

Although steel Is In better demand,
largely because of exhaustion OF inven-
tories, there Is still no clear indication
OF progressive Improvement, according
TO the IRON Ages weekly review of the
industry,
''The steel corporation activities still
average a fraction under 80 per cent,
with the Carnegie Steel Company run
ming at lower rates than In recent
weeks" the review points out. while
the Tennessee Company, owing to ex-
port and other contracts and to the
Improvement in the South. Is at nearly
half of fun operation.
The competitive aspect Of the market
has not changed. The one formal price
change OF the week was the general
dropping to 2.75 instead of cents
on No. % black sheets and TO 3.75 from
1 cents on galvanized sheets. Rail buy
ing for this year is virtually over and
no interest has developed in rails for
next year to call for the naming of a
price for 1922"
The Iron Trade ReuteC says:
Although Improvement from week TO
week has been scarcely noticeable the
last days OF August find the iron and
steel market in aii encouraging but far
from satisfactory position. Inquiries
| and sales In the last seven days have at
least equalied In volume those of the
| previous week.
IAN advance OF 81 In the price OF
foundry iron is the outstanding feature
of the weeks trading In pig iron. No. 2
| foundry is quoted at S21 valley. An
Improvement in the volume Of sales Is
| reported in the Cincinnati and Birming-
| ham markets, while in the Northern
| centres the rate of buying appears to
be unchanged from last week. In
auiries for iron for first quarter de-
livery have been made in New York,
but producers ere reluctant to quote
prices.

lower the composite market average OF

sist Grover c. Bergdoll the stacker escape as was charged by the mother of Bergdoll, the outraged dignity of Campbell before the house Investigating committee can have the effect of weakening the charge against him.
 There is the first fact, that though officer of the army he had certain relation with the Bergdolls counsel deserter. though that relation may be easily explained. The fact that there de- posted by Campbell with New York broker for stock-d dealing purposes of a almost equal that alleged by Mrs. BergdoH to have been paid him and shortly after the time she said it had been paid him, is only circumstance which standing alone or taken in connection with her charge would not be conFictng very convincing

The Man Who Has Never Heard Them
BY DR. FRANK CRANE fCopyright. 1921. by Frank Cranel

He's godsend, the man who has never heard your old jokes.
 We were sitting in the smoking room and fell into conversation. We had finished up the weather the dis cussion of the merits of the boat the probable would make that day. the poor service at the table, the big prices had to pay for passage and both of us had bragged about our business and how prosperous we were, and how smart children were, and had mentioned all the famous people we knew and Great Names had rubbed against and the kind of tobacco hibton and the War; and the talk had rather peered out when cautiously sprang an Old One on him.
 It was very old one, dating back as far as Jack Haverlys Minstrels or "The Black Crook
 He laughed. He laughed heartily. At first eyed him suspciously. Was he spoofing? No. He really seemed to be enjoying it.
 peculiar warmth pervaded my vitals. charm ing vista opened before If this one to him, saw myself telling 199 more all the Old Ones had never dared tell for years
 I brought out another. It was of the vintage of the late nineties. I hadn't handled it for so long nearly snuffed it. But he was delighted. He shook with mrth.
 Well old boy said to myself, if you're that easy, right here is where you going to get your Thou sand and One Nights Entertainment in six days and your little Scheherazade. l I found out he was from Honolulu, had lived there Eal his life. He was virgin soil He undiscovered territory and an undigged mine. | So I turned me loose. 1 brought out gags with gray whiskers them foot long, quips whose obse- quies had been attended by our grandfathers qurks I in New York for repeating them.
 And every time 1 fired he went down. Every time lit the match of my wit he exploded with appre citation.
