CLEVELAND, April 27.-Increased
demand for iron and steel. coupled
with the slight curtailment of pro-
duction resulting from the coal strike,
is sending prices for steel products ma
terially higher. At present the open
hearth furnaces Of the Mahoning val
ley are working at s8 per cent OF
capacity, while sheet mills have at
tained an output of 81 per cent.
Prices for scrap were advanced Is
cents ton to $14 and SLABS today.
One interest has advanced sheets ~
ton, and has named $2.25 Pitts
burgh as the price for plates. which
is considered a withdrawal from the
market.
Pig iron has risen over 81 a ton
this week and the average for four
teen steel products has risen 50 cents
ton. This average now stands at
$35.44, an increase of 1854 within
month, and compares with $27.74, the

reports an increase In sales OF 81 per
cent over the corresponding quarter
Of last year. while net profits for the
first three months of 1922 were 140
per cent above those forS the first

Fear Late Winter Plunge,
Into Early Summer Weather
BY DICK SMITH.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
KANSAS CITY. Mo-. April 27.-
Spring still Is playing hide and seek
with this section Of the country. Cold
and rainy days have outnumbered the
balmy days which stimulate retail
trade and the effect has been felt
keenly by dealers in wearing apparel.
Merchants are afraid that there will
be a plunge from late winter into an
early summer, which will eliminate a
certain portion of the regular spring
trade. Wholesalers also are suffering
to some extent as retailers have been
buying cautiously and only for I'M
mediate needs.
Wholesale grocers in this section
declared today they had now COM
pleted the process of deflation and are
on a normal basis, with the exception
of operating costs, which. they assert.
still are too high. Before the war the
cost of doing business ran about ~
per cent of gross sales. Last year IT
ran from II to Is per cent and this
year it will reach 10 per cent
The reports OF the Kansas state
agricultural officials show that the
winter wheat crop Of that state was
hit harder by the winter drouth than
was expected. The condition is given
as 1873, the next to the lowest figure
ever reported for April. Gasoline Is
expected to take another jump OF one
cent a gallon here in following simi-
lar increases in other sections OF the

About rs Per Cent of Flour
Mills Suspend or Curtail
BY PAUL G. HEDRICK.


Special Dispatch to The Star.
SEATTLE, April 27.-There is gen.
eral quiet prevailing in the flour mill
ing industry of the northwest, accord
ing to millers. The oriental demand
has been shut of to large extent by
the advance in wheat prices. This ad-
vance has made it possible for Aus
tralian -four to. compete in the orient
with the American product. The
prices of Australian flour run from
so TO Is cents barrel, or IS to IS a
ton, cheaper than American brands.
Even the reduction in transpacific
freight rates on -four from 81 to 81 a
tons has not sufficed to relieve the
situation. Domestic demand is i'm
proving, but about IS per cent of the
Pacific coast -four mills have sus-
pended or curtailed operations.
Imaortations of plate glass and
window glass from Belgium are re-
ported by dealers to be the heaviest
ever known. Sales by dealers have
been better in April than in March or
at the same time last year. The glass
is brought to Pacific northwest ports
by way Of the Panama canal.
The wholesale grocery trade Is i'm
proving steadily, with collections fair.
The retail dry goods business also Is
improving, but more slowly. Sales of
leading stores are running consid-
erably ahead of those of last year.

EASIER TONE SEEN
IN BOND MARKET
BY Special Leased Wire to The Star.

By Special Leased Wire 10 The Star.
NEW YORK, April 27.-The bond
market today finally reflected the
disposition of the financial commun-
ity to pay more attention to the
course of events at Genoa. 1t was
apparent in the increasing irregu-
larity of the list generally, and par
ticularly the movement of French and
other external loans that the present

investment sentiment
Among domestic bonds, however,
the speculative favorites were the
ones most notably affected. High
grade railway mortgages and indus
trial leaders in the main Kept nrm.
The number of new high prices was
smaller, and there were more de-
clines with occasional sharp fiuctua-
tions. The continued low call money
rate helped to offset what concern
was felt over the outside news and
liberty bonds accordingly held
steady.
