Cosgrave Supporters
Back English Treaty

DUBLIN, April 6 G.N.SJ.-Ur
ban Ireland is sharply divided on
the question of independence.
Supporters of former President
William T. Cosgrave, in deploring
the defiance of Eamonn de Valera
echo the last message of Arthur
Griffith in appealing to the
people for moderation:
"PeOple of Ireland, stand fast
to the treaty with England. It
is your cOuntry'S need and your
national salvation"
This group asserts-privately
because it is not wise to be too
outspoken on political views to-
day, unless you are a member of
the Irish Republican army or
kindred organizations-that it is
not going to surrender present
independence to become an iso-
lated and unstable republic, "con.
trolled by gangsters or Commu,
nists."
This allusion, of course, is to
the Irish Republican army and
the Saor Fire, the extremist or,
ganization.

AIDS STEEL

NEW YORK, Aug. 10 GN.sJ.
A sharp rise in scrap prices at
Chicago and Pittsburgh, strength
ening on the non-Ferrous metal
markets, a slight increase in con-
sumer interest in steel and pig
iron and an actual expansion in
demand for wire products are pos
sible forerunnerS of an upturn in
the steel and allied industries,
says the Iron Age in its weekly
review today.
There has been no abatement
of confidence among iron and
steel producers that next month
will bring more definite signs of
improvement.
Little change is expected dur
ing August, and in fact the aggre-
gate results of the past week as
to volume of business have been
disappointingly small, resulting in
a further drop in steel ingot out
put to about IA per cent from Is
per cent last week.

BY MUNROE ROBERTS

NEW YORK, Aug. 10 G.N.SO .
Strength in the New York City
Traction and the United States
Government issues, combined
with tremendous volume in the
latter, featured trading on the
bond market today.
Trading in the Treasury 31ss
and the Treasury IS reached
proportions in the first half hour
the like of which has not been
seen since 1929, and gains in the
two issues ran to about half
point each.
Extension of the rally in the
local traction issues carried the
Interborough bonds up sharply
with the 5s Of 1866 squirting 3H
to 51A, the stamped SIS 2A to
51A, and the IS a point to 80,
while the Brooklyn & Manhat-
tan IS gained fractionally.
The strength was due to re-
newed rumors that unification
would take place before the end
of the year.
The domestic rail list displayed
an irregular tone. along with
the industrials and the foreign
list, German 512s, dipped nearly
2 points to 433s, while the rs
lost nearly point at 667s.
Japanese 51as ignored the de-
cline in the yen and gained
