They have witnessed the insufficiency
of the "dole" to provide even an ex-
istence standard of living, They have
seen the development of industries in
Indian and the colonies and the con-
sequent closing down of similar fac
tories in England. They have felt the
effects of the Dawes plan as German
coal has gone to markets that were
formerly British. They have seen the
threat of coolie labor at from to 16

have been smashed between the eyes
by the refusal of the British govern

orders from the Russian

industries.
Now they are beginning to recog-
nize the point of the propaganda of
the Communist and left wing mill
tants and to register their response
by definite action. What they have
heretofore considered as being pure
ly in the realm of theory has been
translated by everyday events into
living reality. The decisions of the
congress upon the various resolutions
bear out this principle.

IRON ORE PRICE CUT
ST|RS UP INDUSTRY
Drastic Reduction in Output
Threatened by Duluth
Mine Operators.
BY j. c. ROYLE.
Special Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star
NEW YORK, April S.-widely diff
ferent opinions were expressed to-
day by the producing and consuming
interests on the effect of the reduc-
tion of SO cents a ton In the price of
mine owners declared by telegraph
that production in the Lake Superior
region would be seriously affected,
with possibly drastic cut in out
put. Ore consumers in Cleveland
expressed the belief that the cut in
prices would result In an increase in
the amount of ore handled of from
~ to 20 per cent. Birmingham. pig
iron producers did not conceal their
satisfaction and asserted they would
continue to turn out pig at less cost
than Northern competitors.
Prices Lower Than in 1924.
The 6rst sales of ore made by Du-
luth Operators in the Cleveland mar
prices for 1925 will be so cents a ton
lower than last year. This means a
cut OF $1.30 ton from 1923, as quo
tations were lowered so cents last
season. Declining prices for pig
iron in late weeks have caused a gem
eral weakness in the Northern ore
markets and many Northern pro-
ducers have foreseen the necessity
for the price reduction.
A year ago at this time pig iron
prices were so cents to 81 a ton
higher than they are today and mine
owners have made strenuous efforts
to avoid further reduction. AS now
established Cleveland ore prices are
hxed at $40 a ton for non Bessemer
old range and $4.25 for non -Bessemer
Mesabi range.
According to the Cleveland shipping
and steel men the lowest estimate
there of the ore movement for the
season Is 100000 tons. This COM
pares with a total handled in 1924
of 100000 tons. This will keep
the ore fleet busy. but vessel earnings
are not expected to be in direct ratio,
since the low draft rate, necessitated
by the condition of lake waters will
prevent the handling of full cargoes.
Short Cargoes Necessary.
Vessels are not permitted to be
loaded SO that they draw more than
1S12 feet of water, which, vessel men
say, means short cargoes.
The cut in ore prices has had
some effect on the Buffalo pig iron
market, but. SO far as can be learned,
the price of eastern PENNSYLVANIA
product has not been affected.
Birmin CHAM, Pueblo and the Utah
producers are entirely unworried and
are turning out pig iron as fast as
equipment and working forces will
allow.

EVERYMAN'S
INVESTMENTS
BY GEORGE T. HUGHES.
BELGIAN BONDS.

Like France, Belgium Is recovering
from the effects of the war and the
convalescence is slow and painful,
marked by relapses. Moreover, prices
for Belgian bonds are Influenced
alphabetically by those for France.
The result is that anywhere from $50
TO nearly 7.50 per cent is obtainable
on Belgian bonds, four of which, all
payable principal and interest in
American dollars, are actively traded
in on the New York Stock Exchange.
It may be instructive to examine
the reasons for the variations in
price. Take the TVS, due 1945, first.
These were offered in June, 1920, un-
der an agreement whereby the king
spm of Belgium covenants to pay
annually not less than $2,300.000 to be
applied to the redemption by lot of
not less than 100000 principal
amount of bonds at 115 and this an
nual payment is sufficient to retire
the entire issue at this price of lis
by maturity. Here we have another
one of those provisions which operate
to hold up the market price, for
holders always have the chance that
their bonds will be called for pay
ment at this substantial premium,
perhaps next year and perhaps later,
but in any case, before 1945.
The Belgian IS, due 1941, also have
a sinking fund sufficient to purchase
each year s1,500.0o0 principal amount
at price not more than 10TH,
with the further provision that If
bonds are not purchasable at this
h,nre, beginning in 1926, they shall
be drawn for redemption by lot also
at 107h. Examination of the market
prices shows that they are controlled
by these redemption clauses.
