U ~ Iron and Steel Works Show No Signs of Industrial Curtailment, A. P. Ob- server Reports.

Bochum, Jan. II. (By Associated PressD sD-"Business as usual" would seem to be the motto of this busy little counterpart of Pittsburgh, where lie the roots of the fortune of Hugo Stinnes, Germany's greatest capital ist.
 Riding through the city during the night the correspondent saw the ridges of the Ruhr valley lit up with flames that beiched from the many furnaces Of the iron and steel works. Gaunt buildings stretched for miles and miles. In them worked the 25,- 900 new men whom Stinnes employs.
 The plants turn out approximately 40o.O 900 tons of iron and steel products yearly keeping five blast furnaces busy.
 There was no indication last night that the workers or their employer were thinking of the French troops so near at hand.
 When the correspondent asked the workers Where's stinnes?" they an- swercd:
 "Stinnes-that capitalist? Oh, he's in Berlin or somewhere. We do the work; he gets the money"
 The average pay at tho steel plants is eaIav ilent to 30 cents a day or thre thousand marks. That is enous h to buy pound and half of butter. two pounds of meat or three pounds of bread. One pretty little, German girl. clerk. said that her salary was 5000 marks a month or almost enough to buy a pair of shoes.

 The association discussed health laws and voted to recommend to the state department of health that branch laboratories be established for the convenience of cities and towns which are without laboratory equip ment. At present there are labora- tories in Hartford, Waterbury, New Britain, New Haven, New London, Bridgeport, Stamford and Greenwich. When cultures are taken in places which have no laboratories. they are sent to New Haven for examination. This causes undesirable delay in many cases, so the association proposes that the state pay the expense of the laboratories already established when cultures are sent in for examination in their districts. Under this arrange ment, cultures from Plainville. Bar- lin, Southington, etc, would be sent to the New Britain laboratory and whatever expense was incurred would
