BUSINESS REVIVAL PROGRESSES
Signs Are Favorable in Spite of the
 Rail and Mine Strikes.

New York, Aug. 5.-Notwithstand- ing the more or less confused situa- tion caused by the labor trouble in the coal and railway industries, the fact which appears to stand forth 'unmistakably is that the business re- vival which got under way last spring is continuing. Taken by themselves and apart from the two unsettled strikes, all of the signs of increasing financial and industrial activity have continued to point in the same direction The latest month ly figures of the country's iron pro- duction were the largest of any month since 1920, and exceeded even last March by 20 per cent. The latest monthly report on steel production showed an increase of 160 per cent over the same month of 1921. Or ders on the United States Steel Cor poration's books at the beginning of July overtopped those reported at the beginning of the year by 1867 OOO tons, or 92 per cent

RAIL WAY STRIKE THREAT
 EnS EIGKT 70 FINISH
Country is Facing the Prospect Gf a General WalkOut-Peace Move
 Is Failure.

Washington, Aug. 7.-Presidenl Harding's latest proposal to settle the railroad shopmen's strike today failed within few hours after it was pre- sented, and tha country now faces the prospect of a general tie-up.
 The presidents proposal that the shopmen return to work, that the rail road operators assign them to work, and that both sides submit the issue of seniority to the Railroad Labor Board met with instant and determined op position on the part Of the shopmen's leaders.
 It was answered promptly by the issuance of call for a general con- ference of all the railroad labor or ganizations, to De held ill Washington Friday, for the purpose of adopting measures to make the shopmeh $ strike more effective.
 The Big Four brotherhoods, the or ganizations of operating workmen, will be asked by the strikers to refuse to operate equipment considered de- feCtive.
 To Complete Tie-Up.
 By this plan the strike leaders hope to bring about complete stagnation of the entire railroad transportation sys- tenn of the country.
 That the presidents plan would be rejected and that the other 1ailroad unions would respond promptly to the shopmen's call for effective support was believed to be a foregone conclu sion following a long conference be- tween the shopmen's chiefs and the Washington representatives of three of the Big Four" brotherhoods.
 When the president saw the shop mems representatives at the White House this morning, he told them that this was his last effort to bring about a settlement of the strike. If it is, the shopmen's leaders indicated clear ly tonight that there can be no settle ment and that the conflict between railroad workers and owners, which has been threatening since before the war, seems destined to be fight to the lnish,
 Men Determined.
 "The employees now on strike are firm in their position, and will con- tinue on strike so long as the Associa- tion of Railway executives declines to accept reasonable terms of agree ment," sad Bert M Jewell, head of the shop craft organizations, after the conference.
 Those who participated in the con- ference, besides Jewell, were William H. Johnston, president of the Interna- tional Association of Machinists; J. P. Noonan, president of the electrical workers; Arthur J. Lowell, represent ing the firemen and enginemen; Paul Stephens of the trainmen and H. E. Wills of the engineers.
