STEEL MAGNATES
 HOLD CONFERENCE
Youngstown and Bethlehem
 Leaders Meet in Cleveland

Cleveland, March il Followers of the steel world came here today for conference generally consid- cred as an 11th hour effort to straighten out interlocking and con- fiicting interests at stake in the proposed merger of the Bethlehem Steel corporation and the Youngs- town Sheet & Tube company.
 Eugene G. Grace, president of Bethlehem; James A. Campbell, chairman of Youngstown Sheet & Tube, and Cyrus s. Eaton, Cleve- land financier who organized the s350, 0,OO0.O00 Republic Steel corpora ton, were the principal figures con- cerned.
 No Comment Made
 Although none of them had any comment to make, it was taken for granted the barley was called in an attempt to pave the way for the Bethlehem Youngstown merger scheduled to be laid before stock holders of the Youngstown company at that city tomorrow,
 The chief opposition has ema- mated from Youngstown citizens, who hold about 20 per cent of the stock. It was considered that Eaton likewise opposed the merger as the dominant figure in the Otis Cliffs corporation in which William G. Mather is a conspicuous figure. This group is believed to control 20 per cent of the stock.
 Mather, however, and his broth CT, Samuel, believed to indirectly control 35 per cent of the stock in the past have been guided by the wishes of Campbell
 The remainder of the stock is about equally divided between Youngstown residents and general investors.
 No Rival Bid
 F. II. McCleary, president of the Republic corporation, announced that no rival bid would be submit ted at the Youngstown meeting. In the past. Republic has made scv- eral efforts to acquire the Youngs- town company, the fourth largest unit in the steel industry, but Me Cleary's statement indicates no pressure would be brought to bear at this time.
 The Bethlehem corporation, sec ond only to the United States Steel corporation, is understood to have offered four shares for three of Youngstown. If the merger is ac- complished, Bethlehem will have assets of approximately $500, ,ooo,- o0o with capacity of producing H. 1 900 ,0OO tons of steel ingot year.

Rooms Will Rent for Only S2.50 Weekly During Most of School Year.

Paris, March 11.-lPl-America's S contribution to the International University city, building on the out skirts of Paris, is almost completed and will be dedicated April 2S.
 The United States Dormitory is spacious building overlooking the Pare Montsouris, one of Paris most beautiful parks. It has 260 bedrooms. half of which are for men and half for women. It also contains rccep- ton rooms for men and women, large library, an assembly room for dances, lectures and reunions. and ' studios for painters and sculptors.
 A few of the studies are construct cd with sound proof walls so that they may be used by music students who may practice as much as they like without disturbing the neighbor- hood. The cost has been S400,000.
 The University City is unique in France, where college campuses are unknown. Its foundation came about through the generosity of a French steel baron, M. Deutsch- da- la Meurthe, who gave to the University of Paris the money for the main buildings.
 Houses 1000 Students
 While the "city" is built on the American campus plan, it is quite different from any American college. It is planned to take care of about 4.0O0 students, but only eight of the buildings belong 10 the French. These are the central buildings and one or two built by groups interest ed by specialized study. The re- mainder belong to various nations. Thus the city is international and a student who lives there has the op- portunity of brushing elbows with 15 nationalities.
 The American house was not pro- icctcd until several buildings had all ready been erected and were occu- pied. Under the direction of Dr. and Mrs. Homer Gage, Boston, a cam- paign for funds was organized in the United States. Paris Americans do- mated S50,00O. Many of the rooms are endowed.
 This dormitory will be thrown open to students for the first time at the beginning of the short sum- mer session. The rooms will be rent ed for s25O a week during the reGu- lar school session and at S3 a week in the summer. This will carry the right to use the entire building, which will be supervised by a so- Cial service worker.
 The student city is located on the southeastern border of the capital, more than two miles from the Uni versity of Paris, but tho municipal council has extended bus lines so that travel to and from classes will be easy.

nRA 9so 9s26s @ oe Ga Ga BY LAURA LOU BROOKMAN

I thur Knight did not lower the
newspaper and he spoke as man
engrossed in important matters. He
continued reading.
Throughout the rest Of that eve
ming Knights part in the conversa-
ton was nothing more than terse
answering of questions.
Judith was uncomfortable. An
open magazine lay in her lap. She
looked down at it from time to time,
but the rows of type might as we'll
have been invisible.
Arthur always had reserved the
hours following dinner for carefree,
relaxed discussion of the days
events. He liked to hear how his
wife had been spending the day,
details of the household affairs
which she had way of turning into
amusing anecdotes.
He had confided plans and details
of many a business venture, and be-
cause she had spent those months
in the Offices of the big firm, Judith
was an understanding audience.
These hours together had seemed
the best part of the day to Judith
ever since coming to her new home
Tonight all this was changed.
Could Arthur possibly know?
Judith darted another glance to-
ward the newspaper. That was all
she could see of her husband-just
a bit of dark hair protruding above
tho ION Of tloo avyov,i,,cr Y7ou,croY nor
No, she didn't think he could
know about her chat with Andrew
and she didn't think he could object
if he did know.
Just the same Judith felt guilty
The pink in her cheeks (Which
would come whenever she was agi-
tated) showed this plainly.
But it wasn't a lie-really!" she
reassured herself. True, she had
been at home all afternoon since
returning from her luncheon en-
gagement with Andy Craig.
She tried repeatedly to convince
herself that she had not been guilty
of falSehood. Of course, after her
plans worked oot, she could tell
Arthur the whole story.
If she said anything now about
Tony and Andy she was afraid
Arthur weuld spoil it all.
She was very sure her plans we're
bound for success. Arthur's aloof-
ness and his strange manner to-
night were the first flaw.
Judith turned to the radio for en-
tertainment, found that the merry
quipS of Broadway entertainers and
mellow music of old operas were
equally boresome. After nearly an
! hour of this she arose.
Pm going upstairs, Arthur" she
said. will you be coming soon?"
After while"
1t was after a considerable while
that Arthur Knight cast aside the
paper he had been reading. The
fire in the crate was dying lower.
It's soft blaze and the glow of the
parchment-Shaded lamp behind him
we're the rooms only illumination.
For several minutes Knight
watched the flames in the fireplace.
Then he leaned back in his chair,
closed his eyes and sat perfectly
quiet. When his eyelids lifted the
mans face was perfect mask for
his emotions.
He arose like man thoroughly
tired and went up the stairway.

Silence came between them.
Knights gaze returned to his news

covertly as she lay back among the

surprise.
"Well-good morning I fee
highly honored."
Judith was in no mood for light
pleasantries.

ly. I've got to see you. Just a;

He assured her that was possible
and said he was leaving the office
at II o'clock.
Then I'll meet you anywhere
you say at that time. Where shall
it be?"
Craig urged her to set the meet
ing place herself. Judith thought
swiftly.
Lets make it that 'Rookery'
place that Tony took us to. It's
quite near the Hunter building. Yor
remembered.
Yes. Craig remembered. He sale
he would meet her there at 1910
Judith replaced the receiver of the
telephone, satisfied.

CHE was waiting in The Rookery
~ when Andy Craig's towering six
feet loomed in the doorway. He
scanned the room, found her and
went over to the table at which she
sat.
After that Judith and the young
man sat in serious conversation for
nearly forty minutes. The girl did
most of the talking. She reviewed
the turbulence of the home which
she had just left. Craig listened
nodded and now and then inter-
rupted to ask questions.
At the close Of the conversation
just before they got up to leave
a silence fell between them.
"I don't know how much good ii
will do, Judith" Andy said finally
I'm not very hopeful, but I'll try ,
Apparently this answer was what
Judith had been waiting for.
"Oh. but I'm sure you can do it!'
she told him eagerly. Her face
frightened and she smiled. ''It'S
time to be going now," she added
and both of them arose.
Craig paid the check and the two
stepped out on the street. They
turned and walked away together
toward the right.
They were an attractive looking
couple together. Judith, trying tC
fit her steps to the swinging strides
of the man, chatted gaily now that
the serious business of the interview
was ended.
1t was not. however, because the
man and the girl looked SO attrac-
tive together that a third person
a man on the opposite side of the
street, paused to watch them.
The man was Arthur Knight. He
was walking from the opposite di-
rection and he had been just ir
time to see Judith and Andy emerge
from The Rookery. hesitate an in
slant and then start off together
down the street.
AS his eye first lighted upon the
pair Knight started. He slowed his
steps. stopped and then stared
across the street. Obviously, with
out the slightest chance for doubt
he saw his wife laughing and smil-
ing into the eyes of Andrew Craig
Something like a gray shadow
crossed Knights face. He contin-
ned walking, finished his errand and
returned to his Office.
At home that evening before the
fireplace he asked in the quietest
most casual manner in the world:
Did you run into town to amuse
yourself today, dear?"
His wife smiled serenely. and an
swered with a negative shake Of the
head:
NO was home here all after

pushing it free from the retarding mud when

His fingers did not miss their goal by six
inches. The girl almost collapsed from the
nervous strain of the past few minutes. But
thank fortune, at last she was safe. Even as
she breathed a silent prayer Of thanksgiving,
she saw an expression OF triumph tighten the
face of the cursing Russian. He dropped sud-
denly to the ground, grasping firmly to something
which wriggled through the mud toward the
water.

SCOUT APPEAL
 FOR AID MEETS
 GOOD RESPONSE
Many New Members En- rolled on Scout Commit
 tee, Announcement

A gratifying response is being made to an appeal to local resi- dents to become members of the Boy Scout Council of Juneau, 1t was announced today by the Scout Committee A circular letter mailed cut two weeks ago has aroused con- siderable interest and large num- Der of residents have made dona- tions to the Scout Fund.
 New members of the Council, it was announced, include the fol- lowing: Nugget Shop, Miss M. Gold stein, o. M. Olson, J. L. Cavan- aush, Krause Construction Com pany, J. s. MacKinnon, c. E. Har- land, Walstein G. Smith, R. B. Martin, Guy McNaughton, R. E. Robertson, zynda Hotel, and H. c. Nordling. Others have pledged their support and their names will appear at a later date.
 Boy Scouting in Alaska presents a problem with which the com munities of the States are not con- fronted," it was pointed out by the committee. Tn the Seattle Area the different Councils can easily avail themselves of the serv- ices Of trained leaders at small expense. These trained leaders do nothing but Scout work and are able to stimulate interest and keep it alive by putting new thoughts and programs into effect thereby keeping the boys, patrol leaders and isaoutfnasters on their toes.
 Our Alaska troops suffer from the lack of this contact with train ed scouting and with this problem confronting us we had trained man visit us this past Fall. This was not done without expense, and Icannot be done again without ad- ditional expense and it is for this personal contact with new pro- lgrams, new ideas and better train ing for the leaders that the Juneau Scout Council is asking for assist ance. Our Alaskan Scouts are en- titled to the same. if not more consideration, than the groups ir lthe States.

THE WHITE MANS BOMBS

Over in India the Afridis. Oraka- zis, Massozais, Chamkennis tribes men have been trying to shoot up the British Army. They even went so far as 10 attack Peshawar, up by the khyber pass which leads over the crags and gorces of the Himalayas to the cloud piercing regions north west Of India. But the persons who sold the tribesmen rifles didn't sell them airplanes and bombs; and that is how the British come to have such an advantage that most Of the tribes. men had to hide when the airplanes zoomed over the mountains and dropped their unwelcome explosives. Incidentally. the airplanes have kept Northwest India safe from the bands of maurauders.
