SCHWAB URGES STEEL
PRICES Be STABILIZED
BY the Associated Press.


EDGEWATER GULF HOTEL, Miss,
November 16.-A one-price policy and a
mutual settlement of the differences be-
tween steel mills producing structural
material and the fabricators, who pur-
chase the product, was advocated by
Charles M. Schwab in his address be-
fore the American Institute Of Steel
Construction here.
1t was Mr.. Schwab's opinion that a
one-price policy In the steel industry, ii
generally adopted by the mills, would go
far toward stabilizing industry. Under
present conditions, he pointed out,
there are some $4,000 100000 invested
in the steel industry. which Is earning
less than per cent. That condition,
he said, should be changed.
The Bethlehem Steel Co. magnate
made 1t clear that he would not permit
a plant of his to compete with the in-
dependent steel fabricators.
Mr.. Schwab favored change in :he
Sherman law to provide that business
men should sit down and determine
how best to dispose of their product.
He declared it not contrary to public
interest for producers to divide terri
tories and customers among themselves,
under supervision.

 the entire row of letters spelled the seasons greetings, Happy New Year.
 Then after another selection by the band, Benny Crawford marched on the stage with flag and gave recit- ation, The Flag of the U. s. A.
 Then followed a cute recitation by little Elizabeth Malutin The next, a bible pageant, brought forth a good round of applause as each of the small children marched out bearing lamps, broom, bread, candle, scales and quoting a scripture containing the name of the object borne. This was followed by recitation exhorting "us to look on the bright side of life,"
 entitled Tt isn't the World it's you" Dorothy Neville rendered this very neatly What Mother thinks" by John Amend, contained more truth than poetry in these lines, If fel- low was the fellow that his Mother thinks he is."
 The next was violin selection Silent Night, Holy Night" by Sylvia Sanbeck was much appreciated. Then recitation My time table" by the June butterfly, Teckla Hakanson, and "The name of Jesus" by Henry Ros- ness, were excellent.
 "The poem gifts to our King" by Genevieye Johns, Beaulah Holben,
 and Mary Jane Amend, was fine and received much applause. Two more recitations followed, "The gates of
 gold" by Roberta Johnson, and
 This little boy was right" by Gerald
 Henrikson, followed by some more
 good music on the violin, Tt came upon a midnight clear" by Annie
 Horton; two good recitations, "Nev-
 CT put off till tomorrow" by Patsy
 Hannon. and Golden keys to use
 every day." by Grace Johnson.
 Sigrid Rosness, the Sunday school
 pianist and Katherine Neville, the |secretary, played clever duet on the niano. Then a recitation appropriate to Alaska, "The ise will bear," b1 ! Maude Larson, and another goot !. piece My Mother knows" by Benn. 2 Crawford: a beautiful song, "The ol' rugged cross," by Katherine Neville 2 Sigrid Rosness, and Rev.
