RATE FOR STEEL.
OUTPUT RISES
81 PER CENT

Steel operations for the week
beginning December II, are indi-
Gated at 31.5 per cent of capacity,
according to telegraphic adviceS
to the American Iron and Steel
Institute. This is an increase of
80 per cent over a week ago when
the rate was 28.3 per cent. This
means in actual tons produced an
INCREASE of more than IL per
cent.
The current rate shows an ad-
vance of 6.3 per cent over the
52.2 per cent figure of November
6, last, the lowest since the sta
tistics have been compiled weekly
by the institute. The peak was
in the first week of the compila-
tion-October %, last, at 316
per cent (revised), and the pres.
ent average is only OIL per cent
below that rate.
Maintenance of the upward
trend in steel operations, con-
trary to the tendency at this time
in the past four years, is un-
usually favorable. Normally steel
operations have started downward
during November, or late in
October, and have continued de-
clining until after the year end

NEW YORK, Dec. IL Q.N.S0.
The stock market continued its ad-
vance today, but profit taking was
heavy and brought considerable
irregularity into the list.
Metal shares were depressed by
strength in the dollar and the &C.
tion of the RFC in holding its
gold price at $34.01 an ounce for
the tenth day.
Liquor Shares Sold
There was some selling in the
liquor shares also.
This was more than offset, how
ever, by demand for the steels,
utilities, rails, motors and special
ties.
Railroad equipment shares were
outstanding on disclosure Of
greater inquiries for equipment
than in several years. Pullman
and American Car and Foundry
were the pacemakers.
The rise of more than per
cent in steel operations for tine
week lifted the steel shares, but
gains were small.
Trading Pace Slower
Columbia Gas and United Cor
poration were active in the low
priced utilities.
Chrysler and General Motors
pushed ahead in the auto list,
though gains were fractional.
Trading was slower than in the
last two sessions.
Recent industrial favorites like
Allied Chemical, Johns Manville,

DELAY ON WAGE
PROBE ASKED

Representatives of the Capalano
Construction Company of Balti-
more will seek postponement of
the hearing on reported wage
law violations when the matter
comes up Tuesday, it was in
dicated today.
An attorney who claims to
represent the company called the
office of Corporation Counsel
William w. Bride suggesting that
the hearing be delayed to permit
private conferences at which
complaints of 'disgruntled en-
ployes" could be ironed out.
While no definite reply was
made it is regarded as improb-
ably that the delay will be
granted. The hearing is to probe
charges that carpenters, brick
layers and laborers engaged on a
school building here are being
paid less than the prevailing
wage scale.
Representatives of Brides office
yesterday went to the new
children'S tuberculosis hospital in
Maryland to investigate com
plants that painters employed
by William Armstrong painting
sub-contractor on the job, were
underpaid.
It was found that the full rate
was paid yesterday for the first
time since the work started and
the contractor is said to have
agreed that the men will be
compensated for the time they
worked on the reduced scale.
1t was also agreed, according to
reports. that the practice of
working 10 instead of eight hours
per day, would be discontinued.

DISTRICT SEEKS
S175,000 AID

A request for $175,O00 for re-
lief Of needy persons here will
be asked of Harry L. Hopkins,
Federal Emergency Relief Admin
istrator, by Leroy A. Halbert, di-
rector of the District relief organ
ization, today.
The sum asked represents one
third the amount expended here
for direct relief during April, May
and June, the ratio under which
the District is entitled to Federal
funds.
Unless the grant is made by
Mr.. Hopkins before July 80, Di-
rector George S. Wilson of the
Public Welfare Board has stated,
relief work here will be at a
StandStill.
Allan Johnstone. field repre-
sentative for the Southern area,
has meantime been delegated by
Administrator Hopkins to launch
an intensive study of conditions
in the District.
Petitions for relief have jumped
enormously during the warm
months so there are now 12,300
families on the Districts relief
rolls. Johnstone will begin his
study of local conditions on his
return from the South next week.
The Washington times., 1933-07-15

Relief Administration, according
to announcement by Leroy A. Hal
bert.
Mr.. Halbert, who is director Of
the District emergency relief body
under the direction OF the Board
of Public Welfare, made this
statement following an examina-
ton of the rules laid down by
Harry L. Hopkins, Federal relief
administrator, for those. States or
ganizations seeking share OF Fed
eral funds.
The District relief body differs
from the regulations in that here
it has thus far proven impossible,
Mr.. Halbert said, to visit each
family on relief rolls once O
month.
New cases are being filed too
rapidly to enable the present staff
to check old cases as frequently as
the Federal administrator requires
but it is the aim Of the local or
ganization to do so.
The District commission also
has no provisions for distributing
relief to tranSientS. Officials are
working on this problem, however.
and with the aid of Federal relief
agents it is expected solution will
be found to the transient problem.

HELD.
IN SHOOTING

Waving preliminary hearing,
Vernon o. Goultry, a park police
man, was held in $1,000 bond for
Grand Jury action on a charge
of assault with a dangerous
weapon.
He was arraigned before Judge
John P. Mcmahon in Police
Court on a charge of shooting
James Ellis, IS, of the 1900 block
V st. S. E., in the foot on the
night of July 7 at the clubhouse
in the Anacostia Park.
Goultry had just been dis
charged from Gallinger Hospital
where he had undergone mental
observation for more than a
week. Michael F.. Keogh, assist
ant United States attorney, read
report from the hospital which
said physicians there had found
Goultry to be of sound mind.
The park policeman, now un-
der suspension, was said to have
been under the delusion that A.
j. Bickford, a fellow policeman,
had been killed, when he de-
scended upon Ellis and four
other boys near the clubhouse.
He lined the boys up at gun
point and marched them to the
clubhouse, striking Michael De
Marco, Is, of the 100 block o
st. S. E.. on the head with the
gun while the march was in
progress.

Senate Counsel Seeks to Learn
Data on "Preferred"
Customer Lists

An investigation into the finan-
cial setup between local diaries
and drivers of milk wagons will be
begun Monday by Elwood Seal,
counsel for the Senate subcom.
mittee which is investigating milk
prices here.
Seal has received complaints
that the dairies are operating on a
system which reduces the earn
ingS of the drivers where pre-
ferred customers" are furnished
with milk below the standard
price.
Routes Checked
A check today of nine of the
109 milk routes of a large dairy,
here showed that 48 customers on
the nine routes were receiving
milk at price from one to two
cents lower than the regular price,
Seal said.
A check will be made on the
other routes of this and other
dairy concerns at once.
Seal today denied statements
attributed to him that he had
discovered the Maryland, Virginia
Milk Producers Association was
brought into being by the Ma
tional Diaries Corporation and
that the dairy concern dominated
policies of the producers.
Corporation AbsOIved
The Senate counsel said:
"As a matter of fact, the
records show that the Milk Pro.
ducers Association was organ
ICED and incorporated in 1920,
hence could not have been
brought into being by the Ma
tiOnal Diaries Corporation,
which itself did not come into
being until 1923.
"NOr have we uncovered any
evidence showing that the Ma
tiOnal Diaries Corporation dOmi-
mated the personnel and policy
of the association"
Seal yesterday made a trip to
Orange and Richmond, Va, to
check on investments of the pro-
ducers' association and said he
found them to tally with list
furnished him by officials of the
group here.
The net profits of the associa-
ton, it was explained by John
McGill, jr., secretary-treasurer Of
the association, are invested and
then returned to the producers on
a six-year revolving plan.

TO ASK
PROBING Of
POOL FEES
Citizens Head Aroused at
Profit Made by U. S. on
Pools Owned by District

Aroused by the disclosures in
The Washington Times that the
little children of the city as well
as the adult swimmers are being
deprived of the free use of four
of the Capitals publicly owned
pools and forced to seek relief
from the summers heat in the
unsanitary Potomac, James G.
Yaden, president of the Fedora
ton of Citizens Associations, de-
clared today that he would pre-
sent the matter to an executive
meeting of association at the first
opportunity next week.
Studies. Facts
Mr.. Yaden has carefully studied
the facts brought to light in the
investigation and particularly was
astonished at the revelation that
the Welfare and Recreational AS
sociation of the Public Buildings
and Public Parks operates two
pools paid for by the District
taxpayers at a profit, turns this
profit over to the Federal Gov
ernment. He said:
"UnleSS there is a provision
under which this organization
conducts its activities demand
ing that it keep this profit, I
see no defense for it.
II do not think the adults
and children of the District
should be compelled to pay for
the use of these pools. 1 think
and I believe the entire Fedora
tiOn will back me up that all
of these pools should be free
and appropriations provided to
run them free.
UNIFIED CONTROL
"In the instance of the sys-
tenn under which the Welfare
and Recreati0nal Association
operates there is no defense for
the fee system. They may be
required by law to charge a
fee, but I don't think so and
I don't see why they should.
81 am also in favor of the
unificatiOn of control of these
pools Immediately so that the
children at least could be let in
free and paid for by the profit
now garnered from the McKin-
ley pool and credited to the
United States Government"
It was pointed out and agreed
to by Mr.. Yaden that if the two
pools now under control of the
Welfare and Recreational Asso-
citation were put under District
control the adults of the city
could be charged a fee just high
enough to allow the children to
swim free in all District pools
and to eliminate the profit alto
gether,
