7 NEW YORK, Oct. 5.--Dun's tomorrow Nfii say:
 The different measures of commercial lnoyements still show varying results. Production in certain industries has lately Increased. but has decreased in such i'm liortant lines as pig iron and steel; some prices are strong and others are weak, and there is much irregula rity in de- 1Nand The situation is uneven and pre- sents many contrasts, yet a large busi Hess is being done in many quarters t hices above those of year ago. and 1bere are indications that some buyers NfAo are not active in the markets now ihaF before long find it necessary to re- lhenlsh stocks of goods. One of the most lhassuring features is the fact that over liurchasing is being avoided and that the disposition is to operate mainly for well defined requirements The absence of commitments made in anticipation of far distant needs is a phase commented upon n many of the dispatches, but the con aervatisin of most interests and the policy of discouraging speculative excesses are good points.

STEEL WORKERS
American Federation Has Its
Campaign Under Way and Is
Confident of Success.
WILL COVER ENTIRE FIELD
Abolition of Twelve-Hour Day VIII
Not Stop the ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
Also Are Trying to Organize
the Steel Men.

The American Federation OF LABOR
and the various union workers in the
steel industry have begun a new ana
powerful movement TO unionze the
steel workers Of America. A fund OF
$4,000 is available for preliminary
work and further financial aid is prom
ised if needed.
The campaign is already on. Head
quarters have been established IN
Chicago, Cleveland and Bethlehem
and efforts will be made to cover the
entire steel field. Samuel Gompers'
president of the A. f. Of L., has MADE
it known here that the federation VIII
cooperate with the sixteen unions
which have jurisdiction over the dl1-
ferent classes Of workers.
At the same time the Reds, who are
credited with the failure of the strike
in 1919-2O, will be barred. The glgan-
tic nature of the plan is indicated py
the fact that the federation leaders
hope to unionize 900 steel workers.
While the disclosure Of the move
ment at unionization is to some ex-
tent in the nature Of a reply to Judge
Gary. who has promised to abolish
the twelve-hour day when labor con-
ditions permit, 1t is said the move
ment will go on regardless OF Whether
the twelve-hour day is abolished. MI
Gompers already has Indicated that
he distrusts the proposition OF Judge
Gary and some of the directors OF the
American Iron and Steel institute

NOn-UniOn Milf Men
Face Ten Per Cent Cul

Raleigh, N. C.-Textile barons in
this section are preparing to cut
wages of unorganized employees, and
members of the United Textile Work
ers of America remind these workers
that they were told the recent 10 per
cent increase was only "sop" to
keep them out of the union. At that
time some of these unorganized flip
PANTY declared that 1--WE don't be-
lieve in unions" They were fooled
by the praise of mill bosses and tex
tile-controlled newspapers.
In discussing a wage cut at Lowell,
CASTOR county, Editor Barrett of the
Charlotte Herald says:
"That is the place where Mr.. Ross
invested 81 200 10 years ago and has
received on that small investment 70
additional shares of stock and cash
dividends amounting to 1920, and is
now suing some of his associates for
an accounting of another profit of
S792, ,0O0."

PEACE AND PERSEVERANCE, OF
PEACE OF WORLD FOR ALL
TINE TO COME

The meanig of the word selfish
ness is the largest proposition con-
fronting the people in this whole
world today by some few being the
most selfish, so saying.
/. SelfishneSS causes discomfort.
2. Discomfort causes fermentation
of trotfDle.
3. fermentation Of trouble causes
unhappiness and conflict.
a. Unhappiness and conflict means
fight and war.
5. Fight and war means murder.
6. Which is against one Of the ten
commandments and the law of God:
THOU SHALT NOT KILL"
Consequently: This condition ex-
lists among all civilized people in all
civilized nations in the world, and
selfishness is not by nature or natural,
but it can be inherited no doubt. Sci,
fishness is a habit, and very bad
one, which causes a lot of trouble IN
finally between nfions of this world.
Discomfort, f1lent.ttsson of trouble,
unhappiness and conflict, with war
and murder, is bound to follow. So
it is a hard proposition to do away
with selfshness. But it could be done
away with by preaching against sell
fishness in all churches, taught in
all schools, all homes, all educational
institutions and picture shows
throughout the whole world. In this
way it could be accomplished without
the contemplated Worlds Court OF
League of Nations, and without sell
fishness attached to either.
hope to see or hear of better
plan than this, in fact anything so it
will accomplish the purpose-Worlds
Peace.
Do away with selfshness, have g
little more liberality, more common
sense and equality in distributing
compensation for services rendered
By so doing we will gain contentment
happiness, pleasure, honesty, truth
Justice, faith and christianity, which
would do away with lawlessness ant
crime from rs to 90 per cent, and the
abatement of murder at least 80 pei
cent. 1t would insure permanent
; peace in this world so long as selfish
ness is held in check.
