influence of Feminine Uniform.

The organization of Girl Scouts main
tain factory and shop in New York
where they make the uniforms which
are dispensed to the members. as well
as the other essentials to membership
and in this manner the officers are en-
abled to maintain the quality desired
and to control the design. One of the
leading officials of the organization has
this to say about the influence of the
neat uniform and appropriate garb
worn by the girls: In selecting the
uniform pattern and the cloth of which
We were to make it, our aim was to pro-
duce models of good appearance, dura-
bility and reasonable price. We know
that the girl in her teens is sensitive
about her clothes. Often girls who have
grown up with hardly a thought of
clothes suddenly becomes style-conscious
In way that appalls mothers. Our aim
is to teach these girls the good taste
that results from simplicity and help
them from falling into the habit of
wearing fiashy, cheap and unsuitable
clothes. When a Girl Scout puts on
her uniform she is well dressed. She
knows it, and instinctively turns to
other clothes of the same type"

1923 ELECTRICAL STEEL
PRODUCTION INCREASES
Twenty Per Cent Gain Is Noted in
Report Comparing Total With
1927 Figures.

During 1928 no less than SO2, $50
gross tons of steel were produced in the
United States in electrical furnaces.
This tonnage is all the more remark
able, says the New England Utility
News, when it is considered that in 1914
the total was only $4,000 tons. The
increase during 1928 over the previous
year was also significant, amounting to
20i2 per cent.
OF the total produced. Asa, ,692 tons, or
5612 per cent, we're in the form of
ingots for forgings. the balance being
in steel castings. OF this ingot produce
ton over 433,00 tons were of special
alloy steels, rejecting the increase dur
ing the last year in the demand for
stainless or rustless steel, in the pro-
duction of which electrical furnaces
seem TO have a clear field. Much of
the ingot steel produced for forgings is
of the higher grades used in tool
making, gears, ETC.. where only the best
grade of steel can be used.

WOMAN EXECUTIVE
OF RAILROAD QUITS
Miss Katherine Wilson Made
Belt Line One Of the Most
Profitable in Country

Alton, ILL.,, Feb. 6.-(R)-Miss Kath-
crime Wilson has resigned after 30
years service with the railroad of
which she was virtually in charge in
recent years.
She rose from stenographer to as
sistant to the general manager while
the line grew from a six mile SINGLE
industry road to q 50-mile line serving
one of the industrial districts in the
middle west. When she was an execu-
tive assistant the Illinois Terminal
roalroad achieved the reputation of
being one of the most profitable rail-
roads in the country.
The belt line was sold eight months
ago to the Illinois Power and Light
corporation, which also controls the
Illinois traction system, better known
as the Mckinley lines, for reported
e7500O00. The value Of the property
was traced to Miss Wilson's manage
ment, railroad operators affirm.
Miss Wilson has attempted several
times to resign since the road was
sold, but the new owners repeatedly
urged her to remain.
It was reported that at the time
Of the sale she received gift approx
mating 100000 from the former
owners.
Stories regarding her knowledge OF
operations are numerous, chief among
them the averting Of q strike In 1917.
Some Of the men had walked out and
Miss Wilson climbed into the cab Of
a locomotive, went to the scene OF the
strike, there persuading the employees
to return to work.

Wool Tariff Boost
Asked by Official

Washington. Feb. 6.-(P)-A duty of
10 cents q pound on the clean content
Of wool in the grease, an increase of
9 cents over the present basic wool
tariff, was proposed to the house ways
and means committee today by F. J.
Hagenbarth, president of the National
Wool Growers association.
Hagenbarth said the present wool
tariff was very faulty in some re-
spectS, and that it did not protect
the American grower against huge
imports Of wool waste.
The 40 cent rate proposed would
apply only to the higher grade woods,
q duty Of "a cents was suggested for
the lower grades.
The dutiable value of wool, under
Hagenbarth's plan, would be deter
mined by actual test. It is now esti-
mated without test.
