SCHWAB URGES
MORE ECONOMY
Ebert H. Gary Says Minority
of Business Men Are Hold
ing up Settlement.
IBy The Associated Press.l

NEW YORK. May 27.-Full re-
turns to satisfactory business con-
ditions will be slow until the minor
ity of business men and women who
ignored the principles Of common
honesty are aroused to the necessity
of sound and decent standards of
conduct according to Elbert II. Gary
chairman of the United States cor
poration.
Speaking today before the Ameri-
can Iron & Steel Institute, Mr.. Gary
president, said the American people
are not buying enough to supply
themselves with ordinary comforts
of life. although they have the dis
position to do so.
General business conditions
throughout the country are slowly
improving and the steel industry also
is little better. 1t would be unjust
to further reduce wage rates before
the costs of living are lowered.
Economy is the keynote of quick
recovery of business, said Charles NJ.
Schwab. cha rman of the executive
board of the Bethlehem Steel Com
pany. Expressing belief that the
money shortage would end and that
there would be return to normalcy
Mr.. Schwab continued:
This is a time for encouragement.
a time to be optimistic and we will
all come out all right. l have never
lost faith in the future of America
or industry"

SAY GRIFFITH
WAS ELECTED
Founder of Sim Fein, Now in
Prison, is Elected to Seat
in Parliament.

BELFAST, May 27.--Arthur Grif-
fifth. founder of the Sim Fein Or
ganization, was elected to a seat in
parliament on Tuesday. it was an
nounced today. He was at the head
poll in the joint Fermanath and Ty-
rome division.
Mr.. Griffith was arrested last
November and has. since then been
in Mount Joy prison. A daring at
tempt to release him was made by
a rarty of Sim Feiners two weeks
ago but they were beaten off.
Sir James Craig. premier desig-
nate of Ulster. who polled almost
10000 votes in the elections for the
Northern Ireland parliament estab-
lished a record for balloting in Ul-
ster. His nearest competitor was
Cannon D'Valera, who received
more than $4,000.
Considerable depression of the
treasury of Sim Feiners and Nat
ionalists as result of the Irish elec-
ton was forecast here today. as 1t
was pointed out in each case of fall
ure of candidate to parliament to
take the seat forfeit of $50 pounds
will have to be paid. AS the same
rule will prevail throughout South
ern Ireland. it was predicted the
election would be likely to prove ex-
pensive to the Sim Fein.

STREET SIGNS IN CITY

The first consignment of poles
upon which will be erected the new
street signs has been received in this
city and the work of setting up
these poles on all street corners has
been started in the southern Sec
ton of the city. The poles are of
iron, painted an orange color and
are set in concrete. None of the
name plates have been attached as
yet to the poles. The contract for
furnishing these street signs was
awarded about two months ago and

pected that other consignments will
now follow at short intervals so that
the entire city may soon be posted
