 LEAVE POLL CHAIN
Enters Independent The- ater Field in New
 England
CAME FROM FOX

Harry Arthur, who has been in charge of the operation of the Poll theaters in New England for the pasttwo years or more, steps out this week when the chain will be turned over for operation to L. N. Nathanson, who has acquired a financial interest in the theaters with S. z. Poli, original owner. l.. N. Nathanson, is a Canadian. He makes his headquarters in Toronto, where he is president of Para mounts Canadian theaters.
 It is understood that A. c. Blum- enthal of New York negotiated the deal whereby Nathanson acquired his interest in the Poh theaters.
 In leaving Poli, Harry Arthur, fulfiills long desired plan to enter independent theater operation in New England on his own behalf. His future theater interests will be in New England, where he has cen tered much of his investments and time during the past two years. De- tails of his plan for his own con- trolled theater operation cannot be announced at present.
 Through Arthur Theaters Corp. 1sAA AAthuI AOAmC yuCAu Uh Ah- terest in the Poli chain, but with drew this interest several months ago. He resigned, but agreed to stay, on voluntarily in charge of the operation until the new owners for the Poli Theaters could be had, or a successor operator found.
 The Poli Thcaters have been in receivership for about a year, MT Al v A. ton of them just prior to the re- ceivership of Fox Metropolitan theaters. The receivership of the Fox theaters impelled the receiver ship of the Poli chain. as the Poli theaters were part of the same Fox theater operation, and subsidiary to Fox Metropolitan.
 It was from Fox that MT Arthur came into Poli theaters. He for. merly was e-president and gen" eral manager of all Fox theaters, umbering over 700 theaters in the United States, from coast to coast.

STEEL CONTINUES
RAPID EXPANSION
Ingot Production Advances
From a. to Al Per Cent
of Capacity.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, June 14.-Demand for
steel continues to expand, and ingot
production has advanced from A to At
per cent Of capacity, an increase of 8
points
Output has risen from AZ to As per
cent at Chicago, and from 80 to 35 per
cent at Pittsburgh, with gains also re-
ported at Buffalo, in Eastern Pennsyl-
vania and in the South.
The only setback is temporary one
in the Cleveland-Lorain district, where
decline from IS to So per cent will be
wiped out before the close of this week,
Still further expansion of steel output
is foreshadowed by blast-furnace re-
sumptions.
In the Youngstown area a steel COM
pany stack has been lighted, and in
the Pittsburgh district, four steel cor
poration furnaces and one independent
steel company unit will go into blast
before the week end, says Iron Age.
Steel companies are deferring action
on prices for forward delivery, pending
final enactment of the industrial re-
covery bill. Producers of sheets and
strip have withdrawn recently an
nounced third-quarter quotations. but
in some cases have accepted orders for
delivery until July 81, subject to price
revision in case labor costs increase.
Wire Prices Extended.
Present prices on wire products
have been extended by some producers
through July, and the larger tin-plate
consumers are covered for the major
requirements until Fall, but with these
exceptions, mills are accepting no busi-
ness for specification after June 80.
THE effect of the pending industrial
control legislation is entirely conjec-
tural. While general wage advance
seems certainty, and at least moder-
ate price increases are regarded as IN
evitable, the iron and steel industry Is
marking time for the present It Is pos
sible that when new prices are named
they will be limited to current orders,
or to 30-day commitments, at the
most.
1.-The reluctance Of producers to take
forward business has initiated against
speculative buying. 1t is possible, how
ever, that some Of the tonnage now
being taken against second-quarter
contracts exceeds present needs"
Consumption Gains.
Although control legislation may
have speeded up buying, and demand
remains unbalanced, with little sup
port coming from the railroads, con-
struction or the oil industry, there Is
no gainsaying that steel consumption
is still increasing June sales of auto
mobiles are moving contrary to the
usual seasonal trend, and retail deliv-
cries this month may set new high
mark for the year. More steel ton
mage now is being placed by makers of
medium and high priced cars, and mills
believe the flow Of business from the
automotive trade will remain at
fairly high level until at least the mid
die Of July.
THE Iron Age composite prices are
unchanged, finished steel at 1892 cents
pound, pig iron at $15.01 a gross and
steel scrap at 1892 a tom

BONDS SELL OFF
in QUIET TRADING
u. S. Government Group
Loses Ground on News of
Veterans Plans.
Special Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star
NEW YORK. June l4.-While domes'
tic speculative bonds today moved more
or less with stocks, the various Govern.
ment loans were Influenced by politica
developments.
The veteran legislation proposals were
at once mirrored in initial dealings Of
United States Government obligations
as all of the active issues In this group
opened fractionally lower.
Although the war debt announcement
was not to be made public until well
after the close of the market today
traders were quick to note the activity
of the United Kingdom issues. Great
Britain SIPS were up slightly, but the
As were down more than point. Pre-
vious to the opening here there had
been brisk bidding for British govern
ment issues in London. The decline in
the British As here, of course, was due
to the fact that they are payable IN
pounds sterling, and during this period
the pound declined in terms OF the
dollar.
Reich Loans Easier.
German loans generally were easier,
as London cables indicated that the
meeting of the Reichs creditors on Fri
6ay would first consider the problem OF
transfer payments on the Young and
Dawes plan issues.
Bulgarian rs were up slightly on the
announcement that Bulgaria had trans
ferred in dollars and sterling about Il
per cent of the July l coupon funds for
the Is of 1867. In order to pay the
30 per cent interest payment on July l..
trustees have arranged with the fiscal
agents to draw upon reserve funds Tor
the required balance.
Lowered quotations on some OF the
foreign currencies here during the
forenoon, such as the lire, franc and
drachma, were reflected in the trend
of Italian, French and Greek securities.
Reversing their recent tendency, which
was brought about by London buying
Japanese obligations inclined to
heaviness.
Rubber Issues Sell Off,
Rubber issues, such as United States
Rubber IS, eased following the lower
opening of crude rubber. This reflected
London cables indicating that the Brit
ish and Dutch may not be able to reach
IN agreement on restriction.
One feature of the forenoon session
was the renewed emphasis of short
term obligations, buyers in most in
stances seeming to prefer gilt-edged,
short-term bonds to any sort of long
maturities, whether speculative or high
grade.
Second grade rails, utilities and in
dustrials, in order named, moved
higher in the afternoon, while gilt
edged rails were slightly lower Denver
& Rio Grande Western IS of 1878 and
IS of 1855 were marked up couple of
points, the latter reaching a new high
for the year. Minneapolis g. st. Louis
SIS of 1884 and Missouri-Pacificr refund
ing IS were higher, but some of the
recently popular favorites, like Erie,
Southern Railway, Nickel Plate and
Allegheny issues we're neglected.
American Telephone issues, the de-
benture SIS Of 1865 excepted, were lower.
Rubber bonds remained depressed, but
the oils and metals did better in the
late trading.
United States Government obliga-
tions, Treasury 3As and 3sss Of 1941
excepted, finished lower. There was
some improvement in European loans.
