BERLIN. Dec 20.--German trade is booming; 1t began in the early sum- mer and has increased by leaps and bounds Unemployment has de- creased. In October it was per cent per thousand, now it is less than l per cent.
 That is how the trade situation is summarized in the monthly report of the Prussian Minister of Trade
 eff the manufacturers have a kick" the report goes on to say, "it is the fact that the supply of coal and raw materials is totally inadequate to meet the demands"
 The boom began" the report ayers, "in the early summer and con tinued with rapidly increasing activi- ty. This not only applied to home sales. but also to the export trade.
 The whole of the manufacturers have more work than they can req sonably cope with.
 "The boom in general far exceeds the boom that existed in 1919-20. This prosperity has called great activity in the capital market The amount Of new capital raised in October was 2.ssS,7s0 marks. which is nearly double the amount raised in Septem- Der and is half a million more than raised in any other month of the year.
 METALS AND TEXTILES LEAD
 "The greatest capital issues were in the metal machine and tetile indus tries. which led the boom The great est stagnation was in the dye branches. That was due to the fact that the home buying interests were low and the foreign dye industries finding new foundations; also the embargo placed upon the importation of German dyes into foreign coun- tries
 "All the metal markets are partic- ularly firm, with the prices rising. There Is a difficulty in persuading the manufacturers to accept new or ders. The smelting and rolling mills have taken on new hands. but they are somewhat hampered by trans port difficulties and the coal short age.
 ''The official iron industry syndi- cate last month raised the prices both of pig iron and rolling mill pro- ducts. but material is hardly to be had at the official prices and the condition of the rolling mill material market is the same as that of the Stock Exchange. where all are buv- ing and where the insufficient supply has to be rationed.
 "The demand for bar iron is off cially described as 'disquieting. It has in fact led to an all-round re- fusal by rolling mill owners 10 ac- cept orders

PIG IRON SCARCE

The selling of machines is stormy The locomotive industry is engaged to the full but the railway car branch is dull Workers com plain that they cannot get enough pig iron and there is an enormous de man for Ferro- Manganese and Ferro- Silicium and other alloys.
 The small iron and hardware branches are well engaged. A sudden and tremendous increase of foreign orders is reported from the small hardware industries of Schmalkalden.
 The prices in cloth improve and large orders have been received The silk branch is working at tension and has work for more skilled workers than are available.
 Some branches of chemicals are suffering from shortage of raw ma terials owing to the lack of railway transport. The pharmaceutical branches are enjoying unexampled prosperity. owing to the demands of home people and South American markets.

HULL. England, Aug. 25.-tBy The
Associated Press-.-Most of the Amer
lean members of the crew of the ILL.,
fated dirigible ZR-2 were killed by the
explosion which followed the buck
ling and swapping of girders amid
ships, declared Flight Lieut.. A. H.
wann, in command OF the :raft as
navigating officer at the time of the
disaster. in a statement to The AS
ISOLATED Press today.
Lieut.. Wann said the ship had run
beautiful at 60 knots an hour, and
that he had reduced the speed to so
knots when there came a violent
cracking sound. He thought several
of the Orders broke. The whole thing
happened in five seconds.
There was no sign Of anything
wrong when we passed over Hull" he
added, but everything happened aft
erward. I was in sole control at the
time"
Before the moment of accident"
said Lieut.. Wann, whose injuries are
not serious, the craft la been sail
ing perfectly. She had been passing
through various difficult tests and
the speed had been reduced when sud
denly. while crossing the broad estu-
sry Of the Humber. 1 heard the grind
ing and cracking of girders and the

airship pitched forward. from an even
keel.
"As soc as humanity possible. i
emptied the water ballast to enable
the craft to resume its normal posi-
ton. but al this instant a tremendous
explosion occurred The great ship
seemed to halt for a moment. and
then 1t dropped like a rock. The con-
cussion threw me down in the navi-
gators car. where 1 was pinned by
the ~wreckage- Tho section of the
craft in which / was riding remained
above the water when she plunged
into the Humber. n I was rescued
after being imprisoned for Is minutes.
That is all / am able TO say"
Lieutenant Wann denied local re-
ports that he had heroically plunged
the ZR-2 into the river rather than
on the shore. which was crowded by
thousands OF spectators. The disas-
ter occurred so quickly. he said. that
any such action vas impossible.
