as recorded in scripture. He will
claim that the atmosphere of the

GOOD TINES AHEAD
Large Industries Are Picking
Up, Cabinet Finds.
A Frightened Business Outlook
for the Country.

washington, Sept 15.-For the first
time since April /, five and one-half
months ago, President Harding met
with his cabinet today without the
menacing shadow of a great national
strike and impending economic disas-
teE overhanging the conference table.
It was also the first time that the
president had met with the cabinet or
gone to his office since. the serious ILL
ness of Mrs. Harding
The atmosphere of gloom and tension
that has surrounded cabinet meetings
for more than score of weeks was
lacking today and genuine optimism
prevailed among members of the pres
idRnt's official family over the steadily
frightened business outlook for the
country. A canvass of opinion re-
vealed( the consensus to be that the
nation is entering upon a business re-
viual that will affect every major line
of.industry.
Rail Strike Virtually Settled.
The key" industries, such as rails,
coal. steel and textiles, are already
showing signs OF picking up. The rail
strike is virtually settled, coal produc-
ton is again in full swing in both
bhuminous and anthracite fields, tex
tile mills are getting under way, and
the booming of the steel industry and
allied lines is attended by the in
creased order of wages Of workingmen
ana increased prices 1or pasic proo-
udts.
srhe extent to which the business re-
WAL will go will be measured by the
ability of the roads to handle the bust
ness that will>be thrown in their laps
fer the next six months. in the opinion
otSecretary of the Treasury Mellon.
Can't Handle Business
cabinet members frankly admitted
today the railroads are not in good
shape to handle the burdens that will
be- placed on them for the next six
months as a result of the great ma
tionaI movements in coal and crops
and seasonable products. =
Not single road in the United States
has been able to keep up with its re-
pairs during the ten weeks of the
shipments strike, it was said, and
rolling stock, both cars and locomo-
tiy5s. are generally speaking in a
state of disrepair comparable only to
that existing Immediately prior to gov
eminent operations during the war.
