Beautiful Dinner at Club

One of the prettiest events of the
holidays was the bridge dinner given
by Miss Mary Robson at the Golf
Club on Thursday evening. The club
was lavishly decorated for the Yule-
tide season.
The long table in the alcove was
lace-covered and was centered by an
immense bowl of exquisite Chinese
lilies. On either side were silver
candelabra, holding unshaded red
candles, and silver bon-bon dishes
filled with red minis and sailed nuts.
The delicious dinner was served to
the guests seated at small tables.
Each table was conferred by a red
taper, burning in a silver candlestick,
and each guests place was marked by
a small silver candlestick in which

IRON TRADE REVIEW

CLEVELAND, Ohio, Nov. 13.-Iron Trade Review today says: Election re- suits have cleared the air of much un- certainty and indecision and have brought high confidence to the iron and steel market which has resulted in an appreciable stimulation in new buying the past week. This immediate buying has been more pronounced in basic ma terials, particularly pig iron which has been tagging, than in finished lines. However, the~latter also are reflecting the enhanced faith in fRtsIre conditions and the shaping up of lafsH programs to meet these. Consumers S4 iron and steel seem no longer to feel any cause for hesitation in committing themselves on forward requirements, at least for the first quarter
 Despite the much stronger undertone, capacities remain only partially booked and producers show no disposition to attempt to force the situation. The mills are talking higher prices but are quoting conservatively. One independ- ent maker in southern Ohio this week has advanced sheet prices $2 and $3 per ton and other mills may follow this ex- ample soon. There Is a stiffening ap- parent in some other lines but keen competition holds the situation in check.
 Pig iron has led all markets in the expansion, of buying. Virtually all the leading consumers of the country have closed or are closing. In some sections the movement is described as the larg- est since 1920. Estimates place the sales in the past two weeks at not less than 6O0 000 to 100000 tons. Prices have been advanced generally 50 cents.
 The railroads still are the industry's best consumer, placing about 60.000 tons of rails this week. The Norfolk and Western has closed for 5000 cars and the Baltimore and Ohio bought 16,000 tons of steel for car repairs.
 Demand for structural shapes and building steel Is an outstanding feature this week. In the east fully 100000 tons is under negotiation. At Chicago, one mill put 10000 tons on its books in the week.
 Recent export inquiries for 500000 boxes of tin plate principally for Stand ard Oil companies have not been closed, contrary to published reports.
 Steel works operations in October av- record in March, according to steel ingot eraged 71.5 per cent of the historic high statistics. They also are shown to have risen 60.3 per cent above the low point in July. For the first time in six months total ingot output exceeded 3,000,000 tons, or at the rate of 35,840,- 900 tons annually. The annual rate in September was 33.670,000 tons.
 Higher pig iron prices all around have given Iron Trade Review composite of IA leading iron and steel prices It's first substantial increase since last January. This week sthe index stands at S3S.79 compared with $38.56 last week and $A3.26 in January.

BUTLER IS NAMED HEAD
 OF TEXTILE MEN
Medal For Distinguished Service Awarded Re
 tiring President
(Ry Associated Press.

BOSTON, Nov. 13.-Robert Amory, of Boston, retiring president of the National Association of Cotton Manu- lecturers, was presented with the as sociation medal, awarded for especial ly distinguished service, at today's ses- sion of the annual meeting of the or ganization here. Morgan Butler, of Boston, was elected president. He is the son of William M. Butler, chairman of the republican national committee, who today was appointed by Governor Cox to succeed Henry Cabot Lodge as United States senator from Massa- chusetts.
 Lodge EulOgized
 A resolution expressing "our high appreciation of Senator Lodges states manship, his scholarship and his dis tinguished services to the nation,' was adopted by the association.
 At dinner tonight closing the ses- sions of the annual meeting the speak CTS were President Butler and l.. K. Loree, president of the Delaware and Hudson railroad. Reviewing the recent history of the cotton manufacturing in- dustry, President Butler said:
 We have demonstrated on many occasions that we, as mill managers, are content to pay wages that are fair and proper; that we desire to main tain a high standard of living, the American standard of living, for our employees. We know cotton cost is prac- tically the same the world over. We know our mills are fully as efficient as any in the world, perhaps more so.
 Urges Tariff Retention
 We know. that, by and large, the only large element of cost that is not on an equal basis or lower basis with the rest of the world is the cost of la bor. We know equally well that if we do not maintain wages comparable with those paid in other industries in this country our business will not pros per. Therefore, we must use our best efforts to see that an adequate protec- tive tariff is maintained to protect our employees and to protect our invest ments.
 Under the present tariff we have witnessed the greatest volume of cot
