FALLING OFF SEEN
IN STEEL DEMAND
Copper Exporters Body Fails
to Stimulate Demand for
That Metal.


NEW YORK. October 23--There
was a further falling off in the de.
mand for steel during the past week,
notably from automobile manufactur-
ers. and the market seemed to reflect
the effects of the unusual activity eX.
perienced during the Summer. Lead.
ing steel manufa cturers were very or.
timistic in their statements relative
to the condition Of the trade and their
predictions for the future. however.
and the market was steady with pro.
duction we'll maintained. Pig iron
was moderately active with numerous
sales of small lots and prices were
steadily held.
The Inauguration of Copper En-
porters. Inc. as the chief factor in
the export trade. has failed to stimu-
late demand. and the copper market
has been very q iiet during the past
week. A moderate inquiry has been
reported from consumers. but very
little business placed. and some sellers
have shaded prices with small lots of
electrolytic reported available at
14.O7l2a14.10 for shipments extending
over the next two or three months
Producers are showing no disposition
to press for business. however, and

settlement in Wall Street and the
downward trend abroad offset expec-
tations of favorable month-end sta
tistics and the none too rea ssuring out
look as to prospective supplies.
Lead showed no appreciable change.
Notwithstanding declines in London.
Belief that current prices will prove
to be practically the low of the decline
has stimulated buying by consumers.
Zinc showed a slight falling of

abroad. but a good demand was
evidenced on the setback. and a

the interest was more or less of
joke. Having watched bookkeepers
figuring on lowest balances for the
month, one could hardly see how 33
per cent of all banks expenses
could be reached.
Investigation develops that nearly
all banks pay interest on checking ac-
counts of large amounts, that the
trust companies pay on all deposits 2
per cent to banks and on daily bal.
ances on checking accounts and 8 per
cent on savings. Four per cent Is
very generally paid on certificates.
Local bankers admitted that 33 per
cent Of their expenses is about right

Need Business Men.
Commissioner Rudolph has served
the District ably during all the years
of his terms. His successor should be
a local man, a business man. and one

Until such time as the President ap-
points the separate public utility
commissioners. the present board will
act in the dual capacit Of Commits
siOners of the District and Public IT'LL

The act creating the latter commits
sion did not provide the means for
recompensing the appointees, so the
President has not made any.
The Utility Commission should he
composed of only pre.eminent Wash
ingtonians familiar with the public
utilities situation. The Supreme Court
has settled the status of public utili-
ties so far as limitation on revenue is
concerned.
There are thousands of men, women

A change of scenery often works
wonders for a ball player.
1 have in mind the experiences of

and Bling" Miller Of the st. Louis
Browns.
Recently these two players figured
trades that won for themselves
regular berths in the outfeld. Be
fore that they had beon warming
the bench as the result of batting
slumps.
Connie Mack's desire to add Pitch
er Howard Ehmke of the Boston Red

Jacobson and Miller taking on a new

concerned.
