NATIONAL
AFFAIRS
By A P. LITSCHERT

A few days ago the directors of
the United States Steel company
reduced the quarterly dividend on
the preferred stock of the company
from $1.75 to fifty cents, putting
the stock on an annual So basis
instead of the seven dollar basis
which had been the rate for pay
ments since the organization of
the company. This indicates the
present low condition of the steel
business in the United States, a
condition due in a great part to
our present general economic
plight, but not altogether so. A
great deal of steel is being brought
to our shores and is coming from
European countries which are now
able to put it here at a price Sefy-
ing competition because of the
deprecated currency in the man.

But it is not only the steel in
dustry which is suffering from
this foreign drive made possible
by the deprecated currencies
abroad. A great many of II
other manufacturing industries are
feeling the pinch, too. Some of
them r now virtually paralyzed
because the goods which they
manufacture can be laid down in
America by the Japanese and the
Europeans at a price which would
not represent the bare labor cost
in America. Il we are to get back
on the road to prosperity soon, If
the meat, the eggs, butter and
wheat produced on American
farms is to have a real market,
our factory wheels must commence
turning once more. This cannot
be until our industries are protect
ed from the goods produced in Ia
tions where there has been a de-
probation of currency which
grinds down the labor market still
further and permits the produc-
tion of goods at unheard Of prices
That the people of the country
are beginning to realize this men,
ace is evidenced by the gradual
change of sentiment in congress.
Two bills have been introduced to
give American industry and labor
protection against the cheap mon
ey menace, one by Congressman
Hill, Democrat, Washington, and
the other by Representative Crow
Their, Republican, New York.
Speaker Garner announced rather
nonchalantly the other day that
his majority in congress would
block the consideration of such
legislation during this session. A
caucus was called of the Demo-
Gratis in the House to get an agree
ment to cut off consideration of
such legislation. But Speaker Gar
ner and his friends could not put
it over. They found that there is
a great deal of sentiment in the
Democratic ranks for the protec-
ton of American industry against
the tin money of Europe and the
Orient, and hat a revolt was
brewing. If the plan to shut off
consideration of this legislation is
to be made effective it will have
to have more powerful pressure
brought to bear on it than can be
applied by Mr.. Garner.

that there will be no exceptions to
the IS per cent cut imposed by

employees, except those who, like
the judges of certain Federal
courts, are protected by the Con-

The latest ruling, emphasizing
this point, was announced today

payments to Federal employees
shall be cut IS per cent.

letter addressed to the chairman
Of the United States Employees
Compensation Commission, an
swers query as to whether such
payments shall be based on the
basic rate of pay, or on compen-
Sation actually received.
There have been lnt1mat1ons
that the Federal Government Will
question large salaries paid by
private business organizations
that want Government aid.
In general, closed banks are
being operated at a minimum OF

similar retrenchments.
Few Larger Salaries
Reports have been current OF

most, there will be few corporate
salaries, if any, exceeding that OF

Salary reductions in positions
