AN associate OF Mr.. Hoover has
made a very interesting suggestion.
He says that in addition to tho Daily
Weather Forecasts we ought to have
Daily Business Forecasts. IL this
were accomplished, business man or
investor could pick up his daily paper
and sec whether business Is going TO
be bright and fair" or cloudy and
stormy Suppose that such forecasts
could be made as precisely as weather
which are said to average
as high as so per cent reliablc-these
business prognostications would cer-
tainly be very popular feature of
the daily press and would help to avert
a great many business troubles and in
vestment tragedies.
"The suggestion is not as impossible
as 1t seems at first glance. Depressionr
fellow regular paths crossing om
business world. Their record when
charted looks very much like the
storm maps of the Weather Bureau.
"Start with the industrial centers
OF the Northeast. including, let us say.
New England, New York. New Jersey
and eastern Pennsylvania. In other
words. take the uree Federal Re-
serve Districts No. l, No. and No. 3.
l regard the outlook for this region as
relatively favorable. This was the
first part of the country TO show a
decline in business; and according to
the law OF action and reaction, this
same section will lead in the recovery
"The Agricultural West will follow
suit and participate in due turn in the
activity now becoming apparent In
| the Northeast. Local business men
can regard the neighborhood section.
or the east as a barometer which now
indicates that fair weather is on II:
way.
"When cotton prices picked up, th'
South recovered its poisc. a com
plete and instantaneous restoration Il
not TO be expected. You cannot juml
out of well in a single leap. Bu
lii the business leaders of the Soutl
will fix their vision on the germ o
prosperity with which the New Yorl
stock market has been inoculated, the.
will see the blessed infection sprea'
out until II envelopes the whole regiol
east of the Mississippi and south o
the Ohio.

OLD PR|DES OF OUR NAVY
LOOKED OVER AS JUNK
Warships Costing 5000, 900
to $5. 100000 Now Ap-
praised at $4,000.

Philadelphia, Dec. 17.--Obsolete bat
tlecraft that are TO bo sold by the
navy TO the highest bidders wero in
spected yesterday at the Philadelphia
Navy Yard by financiers, shipbuilders,
steel operators and scrap dealers. Bids
are TO be submitted on or before Janu-
airy 16. when they will be opened and
contracts awarded.
Chief among the warships to be
sold are the battleships Maine, Mis-
souri, and Wisconsin. Their turrets
rusted, decks warped and the gray
paint on their steel sides faded and
peeled, they appear to be but little
more than the description in the sale
oatalogue-"hulks."
But in the early part of the present
century, when most of them were
launched, they were the pride OF the
navy. All have a displacement of
slightly more than 10000 tons and
were in service, but not in action in
the World War. The Maine was
built in Philadelphia, and the Missouri
at Newport News, in 1901. The Wis
consin was built at San Francisco in
1898. They are appraised as junk at
S120,O00 each with the stipulation
that the government retain from each
ship % fiat armor plates, weighing
900 tons. Their cost at launching was
said by navy officials to have been
between 100000 and 100000 each
/ The buyer must not only remove the
armor plate and deliver it to the
Navy Department, but he must move
the ships from the navy yard within
80 days after the sale. If not he pays
SO day storage including Sundays
For those who have no use Tor q

Ozark weighs $500 tons and the ap.
praised value is $4,000. For som,
dealer in antiques is the monitor

appraised value. Apparently the
cheapest OF the lot is the monitor
Puritan at $4,000. The ex-submarin,

included in the appraised price.

Business Expert Sees Rift in Clouds
BY Roger w. Babson
iAli Rights strictly Rcservcsi)

Turning to the Far West, I find the
outlook complicated by peculiar cir
cumstance. The Mountain States and
the Northwest have suffered beyond n
doubt. But In broad way California
has thus far escaped rather lightly.
Business on the coast held up for
some time after 1t was distinctly dull
elsewhere. Similarly. business may
tend to hold stationary on the Coast,
even after an advance II registered in
other localities. In other words, 1t
IS quito possible that California's re-
adjustment may take the form OF be-
lated rise rather than actual slump.
"If we interest ourselves in tenn
peratures' as well as storm centers.
we find reliable thermometer In total
purchases. Sales during the past few
tbs indicate the gradual .ghting
conditions. Sale8 for September
/ and October of this year. taking the
average Of the country as q whole
| Is approximately 70 per cent of the
same two months OF 1920. November
showed per cent Improvement
while tho total figures have not az
yet had complete check, our fore
casts of 20 pc rcent promises to be
accurate. The forecast forsthis month
indicates that we will enjoy so per cen
OF the business of December last year
The forecasts for January and Febru-
ary respectively give us S5. per cen
and 30 per cent.
"As a whole the year 1922 will com
pare pretty we'll with 1921 so far al
the aggregate business of these cities
Is concerned. The significant differ
ence Is that In 1921 the underlying In
fiuence has been downward while n
1929 this tendency will be eliminated
In total volume of sales the two year
will probably be on n par. Since W
arc starting the year with an SO pc
lcent month and can look forward to
Igradual Improvement. The late IA
of 1922 should complete the gradua
lrise that argues well indeed for sound
lee industrial conditions and
strengthening in the price OF goo
stocks.
Early Christmas buying is main
tanning the volume of general bus
ness. The Babsonchart index SHOW
that last weeks gain has. been hel
: and business continues at II per Ger

 RAILROADS DISCRIMINATE IN THEIR REDUCED RATES

Tuscaloosa, August 1s.-( (Specfal.) Through the efforts of the traffic bureau of the Tuscaloosa Chamber of Commerce this city will be given rate of one and one-third for the round trip from points between Co lumbus and Centreville to Tuscaloosa Saturday on the Mobile and Ohio for the big trades day and aeroplane ex- hibition.
 The Alabama Great Southern and Louisville and Nashville officials. in answer to the request of the traffic bureau, stated thta it was impossible to comply with the request for re- duced fares. as it is not their policy to give reduced fares for occasions of this Kind.
 Tuscaloosa merchants regret very much that the Alabama Great South crn considers 1t policy. to give. the Birmingham merchants the advan- tage of Saturday reduced fares and Tot this city. This policy seems in consistent. Tuscaloosa has for years suffered freight rate discrimination. and now must tolerate similar situ- ation in special passenger fares.

Three Men Confess Systematic Plans
 For Big Robberies

NEW YORK, Jan. 1.-Three men arrested here today confessed. police said tonight, to a systematic plan of operation by which they carried out successfully seven robberies in New York City during the past three months.
 The prisoners, Joseph Cohen, 2S. Morris Bernstein. 2S. and Louis Henig 20 were held under $50, ,000 bail each. The three were arrested after off cers trailed them from Brooklyn and over a considerable part of Manhat- tan. Detectives saw them. they said in front of d Brooklyn jewelry store. When a patrolman appeared they dis appeared and took subway to Man haitian. The detectives followed and saw the same occurrence before q jewelry store in 125th street. It was repeated at another jewelry shop af- ter another subway trip and then O. ficers arrested them.
