TALLY to the State Department on
their return from trips abroad have
dropped the tip that Hitler and his
buddies are promoting IN ambitious
scheme to draw steel ring" around
Russia and then close In.
Such reports square with knowledge
OF 0ermany's recent secret overtures
to Japan and the known belief OF
some Mani leaders that they should
seek expansion eastward.
Hitler, apparently, wants to line up
Japan, Rumania, Poland, and the
sc, 900 900 Ukrainian Russians. II he
could persuade Mussolini to send the
Italian fleet into the Black Sea, 50
much the better.
The story seems fantastic and
much Of the evidence Is inferential.
But our diplomats wouldn't put 1t past
Adolf. They doubt, however. wheth-
er Hitler can break up the French
hegemony known q the Little Enten-
te, which includes Poland and Ru-
mania.
The French government recently
sent . high-pressure salesman to
Poland, who reported that the Poles
weren't having any Of Hitler-at least
for the time being.

NEW YORK, September 1o.-An-
nouncements Of new models by Pack

suggest that next years cars will not
embody revolutionary changes. Re-
ports from the trade also indicate

departures in design, will character

Automobile engines In q number of

special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, September 10.-In
contrast to the predominance Of
orders from industrial centers during
the first six months Of the current
year. sales of plumbing supplies now
have turned strongly upward in the
home and apartment house divisions,
according to Dun & Bradstreet, Inc.
Supplementing the funds distri-
buted by the Home Owners Loan
Corporation, the money now being
provided by the national housing act
Is giving the strongest impetus to
the movement of equipment into
residences that has been in evidence
since 1880. For, in the moderniza-
ton of any house, it Is the bath room
and kitchen which are given first
consideration.
mo matter how antiquated the re-
mainder of the house may be, with
these two rooms resplendent with the
new fixtures and equipment, which
LOQHy GACccu OCHuey d4AS I'LL 61AhSy
anything manufacturers ever have
produced, the home may be termed
modern and its stability is en-
hanced by q wide percentage. This
probably accounts fer the fact that
fully so to 80 per cent Of the money
now being received on loans from
the N. H. A. are going directly into
this equipment.
without this new sales outlet,
which did not become of significant
until the latter part Of
August, wholesale distribution OF
supplies during the first
seven months of the year reached a
dollar volume ranging from Is to 40
per cent larger than that in the cor
responding period of 1888. AS faV-
orable as this increase may appear,
however, full cognizance must be taken
of the fact that during the first quar-
ter of 1888 the lowest level in 80
years had been reached. The ex-
pansion Of sales during the last l6
months, nevertheless, has been sum-
cient to enable many firms to emerge
definitely from the red, and the ma
iority of the leading manufacturers
are reasonably certain Of showing
profit on their operations during 1884
for the first time since 1890"

LULL CONTINUES
At STEEL PLANTS
Production Rate Declines
Further to Only 18 Per
Cent of Capacity.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
CLEVELAND, September 10.-Steel
works operations have edged OF still
further, the magazine Steel reports,
but demand shows a small gain.
"As the leading consuming groups
continue to lag" the publication said
in its weekly review, "the opinion
among steel producers Is strong that
there will be no broad and substan-
tial recovery in the markets until
after the Fall elections, or until the
Governments policies are more clearly
defined"
Since Labor day, said Steel, there
has emerged slight gain in steel
demand, mainly representing orders
held back during the holidays, while
steel works operations last week, due
to the suspension on Monday, ayr
eraged only 18 per cent, down one
half point from the preceding week.
steel ingot production in August
averaged 50,495 gross tons daily, 14.3
per cent less than in July. and lowest
since February, 1888. The total for
the month was 1,363,359 tons, down
IA per cent.
Daily average pig iron output for
the month, 34,199 gross tons, as well
as the total for the month, 1,060,l87
tons, was down 1877 per cent from
July, lowest since May, 1888.

Redmond g. Cove believe that
the market is acting well enough un-
der the circumstances.

Maine election can be observed.

reason as yet to alter our previous
advices to allow the current reaction
ary tendencies to fully run their
course before replacing commitments
disposed Of at higher levels.
