Declares Regular
Stock Dividends

NEW YORK, April 27.-Directors
Of the Bethlehem Steel corporation
today declared the regular quarterly
dividend of ~ per cent on both
classes of common stock, although 1t
was not earned.
This action practically follows that
Of the directors of the United States
Steel corporation, which failed to
earn dividends on either the COM
mon or preferred shares. Both cor
porations based their action on the
decided Improvement in business.
President Eugene G.. Grace, of the
Bethlehem corporation, declared in a
statement notwithstanding the fact
that dividend requirements We're not
earned during the quarter the direc-
tors felt justified in declaring the
usual dividends in view of the sur
plus earnings accumulated during the
past years, the decided Improvement
in business as reflected in the marked
increase in the volume of orders at
higher prices. and the strong cash
position of the corporation.
No interruption has taken place in
the corporations coal supply, he said,
and none is anticipated.

Mr. Hawkins asserted in court today
that his client had returned to aid in
the work of Strengthening out the af-
fairs of the estate. Samuel J. Sack
ett, public administrator, was ap-
pointed by Judge Luxford to take
over the estates affairs when Swain
failed to appear in court last month.
Mr.. Sackett's report to the court on
his finding as administrator will not
be made until his return from va
cation trip.
