INDUSTRIES ARE
 BUSINESS BOON
Large Distribution Of Goods Over Country Shown In
 Car L0adings

NEW YORK, Feb. 1O.--( By the As sociated Press. )-Industria news had cheerful effect during the past week in business and financial circles. The basic industries continued to show a high rate of operation and the weekly railroad car loading report revealed a maintainance of the large distribution of goods which followed the year-end slump.
 The number of cars loaded with rev cnue freight during the week ended January 20. reached S91 1,000.. This is 1000 less than in the previous week, but is 22,000 above the scorrespondins week a year ago. A@4 N Figures from the steel industry mean while reflect substantial Improvement in business. The rate of pig iron pro- duction increased during January for the first time since last spring. NThe months production of steel ingots was p percent. above that during January. The steel corporations, unified orders increased for the second consecutive month and the January gain was 353,- GOO tons, excedeing expectations. Leau Dom0n0 increases A greater demand for lead at higher prices reflected satisfactory conditions in the building, automobile and cleo trical industries. Even textiles showed a better tone at times, although the trade here is waiting to see how the problems raised by higher raw material costs will be solved. e
 Commodity pricse showed firm. Brad szI. -sI. s-lxA .I with textiles, declinedb slightly during January, but Dunn's. index advanced by approximately similar amount. Taken together the two reflected a sat isfactory degree of stability.
 Cotton having rallied from 32 to 35 cents, felt the effects of profit-taking and short selling, after falling back to slihgtly more than B cents, however, this commodity firmed up nearly l cent.
 Bullish Wheat Sentiment Wheat developed it's creeping advance until the May future touched>113% which is 55s above the price of two weeks ago. The improvement was ac- companied by more bullish sentiment which had it's foundation in light re- ceipts and expectations of government .soiS.ahSc cV 'he Aarmih6 uistrIcts. IrOi- it-taking took cent or two off the best prices, but the undertone remained firm.
 A brief Hurry in call money at New York found no reflection in the week. ly bank statements. The. latter, in fact, disclosed further contraction and great CT reserve banking resources. In dddi- tion the call money market relaxed and ended the week at 4 per cent. basis.
 A great deal of interest was shown in financial circles in reports, concern ing the impending Japanese loan. It is thought that $150, 100000 will be offered in this market and that the strong syndicate which has been form ed in London will take the equivalent of approximately S100,000,000.

ENSLEY TO FACE < ISSUE ON TRAFFIC
tENsLEY BUREAul

ENSLEY, Ala, Feb. 1O.-The merchants association meeting Tuesday morning, at which the traffic com mittee will make its report, is ex- pected to be one of, the most important held by that body since it's organiza. tion in Ensley. The request for traf. fife lights, which will cost about $4,OO0 and for paving, which will cost about $150.0O0, are expected to challenge the interest and bring about, the attendance of every member interested in the prog ress of Ensley. The committee was named by P. H. Tyler and is composed of some of the leading business men of this city. They have studied the local situation with unusual care and it. is believed their recommendations will re- ceiye the heartiest commendation and approval of the association. $
 In Ensley Sunday the announcement of the committees plan was received with the deepest interest. Merchants who were asked about the plans ap. proved them without reservation, and il is believed that the committee will find it's plans well understood and accorded the approval of their associates.
 Paving, street lights and parallel parking plans are considered the solu. ton of the traffic dangers of Ensley.
 The plans of the merchants associa- tion will perhaps be presented to the Ensley Kiwanis club and the Ensley Real Estate board for consideration and the two organizations are expect, ed to enter heartily into the work of bringing about the measures advocated by the merchants. t-

NEW YORK, Feb. 1O.-(By Asso- ciated Press.)-The heaviest volume of new financing of any week since last June, exceeding $65, ,000, ,000; pros pects that the market would be called upon to absorb an even greater total this week with the sale of $150,000, 900 Japanese bonds; temporary stiffness of money rates on shifting of funds to the west, and general profit taking tendencies cmobined to force bond prices lower during the past week. Reactionary movements late in the week checked an earlier advance.
 Chief interest in bond circles cen tered in the announcement htat nego- tiations had been concluded for the offering this week of between $250,- 100000 and S300,0O0,000 Japanese government bonds. Sale twill be held simultaneously in New York, London and on the continent, with the local market handling the major portion, probably $150,00O,0OO. The bonds, it is understood, will be protected to yield abont z per cent. Decision of the in ternational syndicate. headed by J. P. Morgan and company, to offer the bonds on the continent on dollar basis was regarded as demonstrating the supremacy of the dollar over sterl- ing exchange.
 Record Since War

The Hunchback Of Notre Dame
 curing Picture Begins To-day

Lon Chaney has thrilled thousands with his masterful portrayal of dis torted and revengeful cripple in "The Hunchback of Norre Dame" and he will do the same to theatregoers of this city when the Universal special begins q week engagement at the Jefferson Hugo novel, is laid in the middle ages
 The Hunchback of Notre Dame,' which is based on the famous Victor Huto novel, is laid in the middle ages and is one of the most massive produc- tions the films have yet known. Carl Laemmle, producer, declares 1t is the crowning achievement of the screen. ', Patsy Ruth Miller enacts the lead ing feminine foles Norman Kerry, the handsome Lothario of the films, Ern- est Terrence, Fully Marshall and other players of note are in the sup porting roles. Approximately $1,500,- GOO was spent in producing "The Hunclibadk of Notre Dame," which took year to make. N
 Mir. Laemmle, swho is president of Universal, realized the great risk he took in making certain changes in Victor Hugo's story, but he defends the changes on the grounds that as a drama must entertain all classes, any, thing offensive to any religious de- nomination must be deleted. And all of MT. Laemmle's changes have been indorsed by. critics.
 In, constructing the Cathedral of Notre Dame at Universal City, an army of carpenters, masons, and other me- chanics were employed. The building i, all exact replica in every detail as the famous building looked in 14S2. It is declared to be an extraordinary feat. In addition. to the Cathedral, other historical sets include exact reproduc- tiohs of the Court of Miracles, Place dr Parvis, Palace de Justice, interior of the Bastille and the seven Noble Mansions. This may give a faint idea of the massiveness of the production.
 "The H1nchback Of Notre Dame' is being presented by regular road company" just as legitimate theatrical attractions are offered. The company carries it's own special orchestra which renders the special score written for the production. Because of its great cost of production, it is to be shown only in theatres given to regular theatrical attractions. It is announced that the production will not be seen in movie theatres within the next year or more, if then. &

Girls Put Color of
Food Before Taste

Girls judge food mostly by their
eyes. They talk about the color rather
than the taste. A red cherry or
green leaf, fancy shape or a dab of
whipped cream casts the die"
This is the belief of Miss Mary
Swartz Rose, a professor of nutrition
Mt Columbia university, writing in Hy
geia on 1.-THE High Cost of Growing"
Although it costs more to prepare
and serve food In these fancy guises,
Miss Rose tells parents that it pays
to use the girls love of beauty to sup
plement her weaker urge to eat. A
girl does not need as many calories of
food as her brother, but the same
amount of money can be spent on her
with good conscience.
Keep her diet literally supplied
with fruit and vegetables. Give her an
egg and quart of milk a day. Insist
on her eating at regular times, and try
to arrange for her a wholesome life
that will give her good appetite. She
is learning at school that the physical
beauty, which is one Of her greatest
concerns, comes through health and
she has seen how quickly animals show
the effects of unsuitable food in stringy
hair and blotched skim"
