NEW YORK. July 22--buslness Is
not content TO drift. despite the check
TO progress which has been admins
tered by the coal and rail strikes. IL
is proceeding cautiously, but Is under
steerage way with steam up in the poll
ers ready to surge ahead at full speed
the moment the present dangers are
past. That widespread tendency to go
ahead gives the most satisfactory indi-
cations for speedy settlement OF the
labor disputes For it shows the un-
Willingness of every line of business to
relinquish the newly recovered prosper
itv which was absent so long.
Ii is an axiom in industrial disputes
that no labor controversy ever Is won
against the weight of pubic opinion.
Tie eagerness and ability of business 10
70 ahead is crystallzing public opihio.'
which is deeply concerned with the Ell
feet on the public pocketbook. Whetner
that opinion backs the strikers or the
operators it will be Il weishty enough
factor to go far toward forcing tne
speedy settlement. For ii IS beng real
lied now that the strikes are costlhS

NEW ORLEANS. July % Especially.
Orders for fall delivery are increas-
ing in number and in volume from
week TO week. according to local shoe
manufacturers and wholesalers. De-
mand is mainly for medium grades.
Factories are running at 80 to so per
cent of capacity. as they nave not yet
booked sufficient orders to warrant
full-time production.

unemployment Passing.

Unemployment has practically dIs-
appeared, but the workers who nave
ioi,s do not want to lose them, as
many will if the strikes are not set
tied shortly. Factories and industrial
nlants cannot run without fuel. ana
many of them cannot run with iuet
at famine prices. Neither can they
ran if they cannot secure transporta-
ton of raw materials and hnished
goods.
Orders aggregating scores or mil
lions of dollars are pouring in on
merchants and manufacturers and
producers, and more orders are only
waiting normal conditions TO make
their appearance. Business men do
not want to lose those orders. but
they cannot fill them if the mines ana
railroads are not functioning. Re
failers cannot sell goods II the buy
ing power of their customers is re-
duced. These are urges that are be
hind public opinion, and the talk OF
the parties to disputes. no matter
how full of bluster or defiance il may
~. on either side, will be ineffective
against the silent weight of general
riisapproval and demand for settle
ment.

Possibilities Point Progress.

Business dispatches received in the
last twenty-four hours indicate
plainly the possibilities for progress
and prosperity for the next half
year once the present period of un-
certainty is past. The railroads OF
the country have either started or
authorized rev construction work
involving the expenditure of over
SlJ0.00O,00 in the next SIX months
This is entirely outside the orders
that have been or Will be placed Tor
cars. locomotives rails and equip
nent of various kinds. One railroad
alone has placed orders for nearly
sS7 100000 worth of such equipment.
Steel plants have banked some of
their fires. but those stacks will be
belchinE again as soon as the fuel
shortage is relieved. for the orders
are on the books which will move
production toward instead of away
from capacity operation.
Basing their plans on orders on
hand. automobile manufacturers ex
pect to run steadily on present sched-
ules until snow flies. Tire production

Shoe factories in practically every
Section are booked up to capacity
production from four to eight months
in advance.

Raw wool is firm and woolen manu-

complaints of the infinitessimal mar
