Strong Steel Prices Are
Factor in All Lines
of Trade.
BY RICHARD L. GRDLEY,
United Press staff Correspondent

NEW YORK, March 21.-Business
conditions in various sections Of the
country have show further improve
ment with the coming of the spring
season, industrial operations and
employment during the past week
reaching their highest levels since
the holidays.
The approach of Easter has given
impeus to retail trade; the build
ing industry is showing signs of a
revival and the continued expansion
of automobile output has given en-
ployment to thousands of workers
in that line and in the steel indus
try, which is receiving large speci-
f1cations for automobile materials.
In addition, sentiment has shown
further improvement and the feel
ing continues to grow that any sea-
Sonal recession in business during
the summer will not carry business
activity to the low levels seen last
winter. Improved sentiment is based
on several significant recent devel-
opments.
OF major Importance has been
the sign Of strengthening in steel
prices, which reached record low
levels during 1929. The Carnegie
Steel Company. United States Steel
Corporation subsidiary, this week
posted second quarter prices of
bars, shapes and plates at 81 a ton
above those Of the first quarter.
Steel authorities claim that this
advance, which will be followed by
other major producers. will serve

Following is the explanation of
Ripley's Believe 1t or Not" which
appeared in Mondays Times:
100000 Is Worth More in
Alaska Than in Florida-If the
earth we're a perfect sphere,
weight would be uniform at all
points Of its surface, but because
the earth is hattened at the poles,
an object will weigh the most at
the poles and least on the
equator.
By means of the pendulum,
these differences in weight have
been calculated for the different
ATTITUDES by the Smithsonian in
stitute in Washington. For rea-
sons of expediency, I have chosen
two widely separated localities
of the United States. Gold coin
in bulk is counted by weight as
a matter of law and regulation.
100000 worth of gold in Key
West, Fla, would be worth
S10O,327 at Fl. Egbert, Alaska.
The difference in weight readily
could be ascertained by the use
of a spring balance.

to stimulate buying, which has been
held up because of price uncer-
tainties.
Already the building industry has
shown signs of revival. The larg-
est order in history for structural
steel, involving $4,000 tons was
placed this week with the United
States Steel Corporation, which
will supply the material for the
construction of the Rockefeller
radio city" in New York. This pro-
ject is expected to eventually in
volve $250,OO0,000 and will give i'm
mediate employment to 5000 work
ers.
Another source Of potential de-
mand for the building and allied
lines is the present identification
program of the Pennsylvania rail-
road which already has called for
large equipment orders.
Rejecting the steadily mounting
output of automobiles and the cur
rent large inquiry for building
Steels, operations in the steel indus
try have been stepped up to 81 per
cent of capacity, against 55 per cent
last week, the highest rate since
December.
At the same time, it is pointed out
that current operations reflect no
more than the usual seasonal ex-
pansion at this time, although sew
eral recent developments have given
rise to the belief that the current
upSwing may exceed normal pro-
portions before the end of the
spring season.
Commodity prices have shown re-
newed steadiness with the f1rmness
in steel prices and have favorably
influenced the stock market, where
prices this week rallied to their best
levels since the February rise termi-
mated.

ILLINOIS PRISON RIOT
INVESTIGATION ENDS
Legislators Collect Mass of Data as
Basis for Legislation.

By United Press
JOLIET, ILL.,, March "a. - The
legislative committee investigating
the series of riots in the twin Hi
nois penitentiaries returned to
Springfield today with a mass of
evidence collected in three days of
hearing, including testimony of one
convict that he once bought his
way out for $4,000.
Out of the long record of testi-
mony given by officials, convicts
and members of the state pardon
and parole board the committee
hopes to find basis for legislation
that will prevent further rioting
and bloodshed in the overcrowded
prisons.
The testimony that he had bought
a parole was given late yesterday
by Joe Moran, serving ten years to
life for bank robbery.

Liverpool Prices Down

Liverpool started as expected, but
pressure from Argentine, Australian
and Russian wheat put the market
p to q cent lower at mid-after-
non. Buenos Aires was off % cent
during the morning.
Many traders feel that the liquida-
ton prompted by the farm board
act was good for the market and
would not be surprised if the market
were carried still lower.
The decline is apt to be checked
by an oversold pit condition. The
position Of Winnipeg is considered
weak. The action at Chicago is
expected to place wheat at levels
which will readily reflect any ad-
verse development in the winter
wheat crop, which are liable at this
time. The main question now is:
How, when and where the farm
board is to dispose of its large
holdings.
Corn Futures Dip
Corn declined with wheat Mon
day but not as much. The condi-
lions in the two grains are dia-
metrically opposed. The crop of
corn was very small and another
crop will not be available for six
months. The cash market is NOV

CHICAGO, March 24.-Liquida-
ton of deferrde wheat futures con-
tinued undated on the Board OF
Trade at the opening and prices
were off more than ten.
Weakness at Liverpool where
other foreign countries began to

old crop months firmed on buying
attributed to the farm board

resistance. Oats were unevenly
higher to lower. Routine wheat
news again had little effect.
At the opening old wheat was Z

to IL cents lower, corn was 4 to
Il cent lower and oats were Is cent
lower to 4 cent higher. Provisions,
lost a few points.
