CONTINUED PROGRESS PREDICTED BY GARY
Declares Interruption Of Prosperity
 Tn Near Future Unlikely

NEW YORK, August 1.--From the standpoint of the manufacturer this country should be well satisfied with it's present business situation, according to Ebert H. Gary, chair mat of the board of directors of the United states Steel corporation.
 There is nothing to indicate an iIterruptio to to.progress and prosper ity in the immedi..-3 future,' Mir. Gary said vest day after announcing that in the hree months ended June 30, the company's operating profits were S47C5S,181 more than $5,0O0,0O In excess of unofficial estimates.
 "Of course. he said, T would not m e any statement hat would have a tendency to hurt business of any kind and I would not Intentionally say anything that would make any one more hopeful of the future than tho facts justify. l mink l am justi- fled in saying, however, that from the standpoint of the manufacturer we should feel very : oil satisfied wiA the present situation.
 Now, as always, thicgs may hap pen to cause relaxation of business because capital Is timid. People hesitate to act; they postpone pur chases until they can see little more clearly in the future. No man can see a little mo clearly in the fu ture. No man can say CT ainlJ that he knows ther may not be interrup- tions to our present progress pros perity. On the other hand, as l see l., no one is justified in saying that such will occur the immediate fu- tnra

was learned from other sources that Brigadier General Sawyer, the Presi- dents personal physician. and Lieu tenint Copmander Joel T. Boone, as- sistant to pr. Sawyer, are not un- mindful that with the lessening of the strain, reactiye effects of the Presidents illness might be felt by Mrs. Harding. who for the past year has been in far from normal health.
 Attorney General Daugherty also arrived today, having hurried from Seattle when the Presidents illness became alarming. He spent some time In the Presidential suite and al- though perhaps closer to the chief executive than any person in San Francisco except members of Presi- dent Hardings family, he did not see the President.
 Plans for the future, following the restorotion of the Presidents health continued to be discussed by mem bers of the party and the plan seemingly most favored at this stage Is for return to Washington by what is commonly known as the overland" route as soon as the Pres ident Is well able to travel. In such an event the presidential train would make no attempt at speed, would run on a schedule that would take 1t through heated valleys and across the desert during the cool hours of the night so far as possible and at other times stop for the night so that the rest of the President might not be disturbed.
 There was no attempt to fix any date for departure from San Fran cisco for manifestly the President's 6 present condition will not permit 1t. as encouraging as 1t appeared to be. Any plan decded on would be sub

The amount of nourishment taken during the day still was small but as one of the physicians said quite suffi- cient.' It continued to consist of milk, solf boiled eggs a little toast and fruit juices. Elimination was satisfactory and for the first time was described as regular.
 Another indication of progress was that he received his first visitor in two days, Mrs. E. E. Remsberg of Santa Ana. Cal, his sister. She, with her daughters. Katherine and Nell Marie, arrived in San Francisco, early in the day and shortly before noon she spent several minutes in her brothers room, but was request ed by the physicians not to talk with him as 1t might tire him. She said there was indication that the Presi- dent had been very sck man. At the request of Mrs. Harding, she and her daughters took quarters ir the hotel and were the guests o1 Mrs. Harding at luncheon.

 Never has any guest of the ciS<; bodies of Montgomery received a greater reception than that accorded Senator Underwood tonight at the country club. When he brought hls address to a close with the remarks. All I ask of you people is see that the rear of the battle is safe," ev- cry person rose and cheered for sev- eral minutes.
 The senator did not dlcuss na- tional and international affairs. His address was rather brief He said that he made up his mind while in Europe that he would come to Mont gomery and before the legislature of this state, tell his people that his sword was at their disposal.
 "No greater honor can come to a citizen of this nation than that of being it's chief executive" he said. Points to Responsibilities.
 Senator Underwood also spoke of the great responsibilities that con- front such an officer. "It is crush ing in its weight" he declared.
 The joint civic club luncheon to- night was sponsored by the local Kentucky club. of which Senator Un- derwood is an honorary member. The distinguished guest was introduced by Judge Malcolm Carmichael as "a statesman, a scholar, a democrat and gentleman" Judge Carmichaels prophecy was that Oscar Underwood would some day go down in history as the greatest most serviceabl president this nation has ever had.
 John W. Durr was toastmaster.

 The President asked General Saw yer during the day if 1t would be possible to begin the trip to Wash ington Sunday but was told by his physician that no thought had been given to that question. The doctors in attendance would consent to his further travels at the earliest mo- ments he was sufficiently recovered in health and strength to start home, the President was told.
 General Sawyer reiterated that the chief executive realized his condition and while all members of the party would be glad to have him once more in the White House, the present hotel accommodations were satisfac- tory in every respect and there would be no hurry to move.

SPIDER NOT REALLY INSECT
Fundamental Difference Which Has
Been Recognized by Those Who
Havs Studied the subject.

Spiders and their neal relatives, the
scorpions, are much more closely re-
lated to Holsters than they are to true
insects. Spiders and insects are both
small, both have a number Of legs,
and both appear specifically alike.
The differences between them, how
ever, are Of q major sort.
First. as you will see II you examine
one, q spider has no head. All real
insects have heads. Herein lies a most
fundamental difference. A spiders
face comes directly to the thorax, like
that of a crawf1sh. Every insect has
eyes, both compound and simple. The
compound eyes are usually large, oc-
cupying half or more Of the entire
head. Between them, in what would
be the middle Of the forehead, are
three simple eyes. Spiders have eight
Gin some species only six) simple
eyes. Each n is fixed and can see
II one direction only. Some look for
