BUSINESS PICKUP
Strong AT GARY
Steel Improvement Factor;
Bank Deposits Climb to
s2,5OO,OOO.

GARY, Ind, April 81 (N.ANA).-
Gary, steel capital Of the Midwest,
is making the turn around the corner
in a manner highly gratifying to in
dustrial and civic leaders.
Primarily, Of course, the improve
ment is due to the pickup in the
steel industry, and its consequent en-
ployment of thousands of men who
have been idle for two years and more
Robert B. Phillips, chairman of the
Gary Merchants Bureau and manager
Of the Gary Commercial Club and
Chamber of Commerce, summarizes
the situation along these lines:
Twenty thousand employees in the
steel industry, drawing $4,000 a year
or less. have received wage increase
OF 10 per cent. Minor industries have
put similar rise in effect.
Buying Power Gains.
Buying power in Gary has increased
9 per cent over April, 1888
The average operation in all Gary
industries now is AZ per cent of ca
pacity, compared with approximately
8 per cent a year ago.
Bank deposits for April are UP
$2,500.000 over a year ago, and bank
clearings show an increase of $780,
600, or "a per cent. January and
March showed the heaviest bank de-
posits since 1882.
Retail trade during the pre-Easter
season was 40 per cent more than in
1888. Clothing sales were up 80 per
cent, home furnishings 36 per cent.
Insurance Lapses Drop
Automobile sales have more than
doubled last years figures during the
first four months of 1894.
Insurance lapses have dropped rs
per cent compared with April, 1888.
New policies have increased more than
10 per cent.

ANTI.CODE TRADE
RECORDS PRESERVED
Group Sees Practices of Before
the N. R. A." as Vital
History.

CLEVELAND, April q R.-One
group of historians IS so convinced the
new deal marks a new epoch in
American history, particularly in the
realm Of business, 1t recommends spe-
cial steps to preserve corporation rec
ords of the period before N. r. A"
This group, the Joint Committee on
Materials for Research, of the Ameri-
can Council Of Learned Societies and
the Social Science Research Council,
says of the subject:
''The problem concerns the preser-
vation Of records Of American business
management Of the era prior to the
adoption of the N. r. A. codes.
There is likely to come a time
when we shall divide our business
history into two parts, before the
codes and since. Changes are now
occurring in business control and
management which will make the
records Of pre-code days Of consider
able value to business and to those
who are studying business conditions.
Prof. Robert c. Binkley, chairman
of the committee, with headquarters
in Cleveland, says many corporations
customarily destroy records after
few years, thus losing many items,
which particularly at the present
time have considerable historical i'm
portance.
Prof. Brinkley is not interested in
preserving all records of all corpora
tions. Samples or summaries of rep
resentative firms would be sufficient,
he says.

PLAN FOR HOSPITAL INSURANCE
NOW OPERATING IN 30 CITIES
In New York, Where Idea Has Been Most Generally
Adopted, Subscribers Get Three Weeks of
''Semi-Private'' Care for Fee of So

perintendent of Baylor University Hos
pltal, reports that it was necessary
10 revise the scheme somewhat since
1t was found that women use hosni-
tai care more than twice as much
as men.
=, When women or children come to
the hospital they get the benefit of
tne operating room, anaesthesia and
laboratory, but must pay so per cent
OF the room charged, in addition to
the membership premium. For in
stance, II woman comes for a mai
operation and selects a SIS room, she
VIII pay $3.50 per day during her
stay there.
The principal purpose of the plan
it Is said, Is to enable persons of
limited means who value their in
dependence and do not wish to become
objects of charity to include hospital
costs in their personal or family
budgets.
In general, as the system has de-
Veloped over the country, employees
pay In from S. TO $12 a year, accord
ing to the locality, which insures at
least 21 days care in a semi-private
room. This gives him impatient serv-
Ice such as medici,.es. X-ray, labora-
tory service, diagnostic procedures and
operating expenses. In the plan of
the Associated Hospitals of Essex
County, N. j., where it has operated
for a year, basal metabolism tests,
electracardiagraphy and even physio-
therapy tests are included.
The patient pays special charges
only for special nurses, to donors of
transfusions and certain expensive
medicines, such as insu1fn.
1t is estimated that these services,
again according to locality, would
cost ordinarily from $100 to $500.
About SO towns and cities in the
United States have either a workable
group disqualification plan or are ar
ranging for one. Among the larger
cities included are Dallas, San An
tonic, Houston, Fort Worth, New Or
leans, Kansas City, Denver, Newark,
N. j.; Charleston. w. Va: Los An
geles, San Francisco, Indianapolis,
Boston and Washington, D. c. Boston
and Cleveland, like New York, have
encompassed in their plans service
through accredited hospitals for the
entire metropolitan.

POLITICS SPEED UP
AS PRIMARIES LOOM
Nominations Will Be Held in
Six States During Month
of May.
Special Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, April 21.-The atten-
ton of political leaders of both parties
is now directed to the nominating
primaries next month. Illinois, which
has just decided on its nominations,
is the only State to hold primaries in
April. Primaries will be held in six
States in May. Indiana, Pennsylvania
and New Jersey, which are choosing
senatorial nominees, will have the out
standing battles. The dates are: South
Dakota and Alabama, May / Indiana,
May 8; Pennsylvania and New Jersey,
May Is, and Oregon, May 18.
Comparatively little interest is
taken here in the South Dakota, Ala
bama and Oregon primaries, as sena-
torships are not involved there and it
is not expected that the results will
have much national bearing
Indiana is being watched closely
from the National Capital because of
the determined effort of the Demo-
Gratis to capture the Senate seat now
held by Senator Arthur r. Robinson,
Republican. The Pennsylvania strug-
gle is chiefly of moment because Gov.
Clifford Pinchot, progressive Repub-
lican, is seeking to wrest the Repub-
lican nomination for Senator from
Senator David A. Reed, the Republic
an incumbent. In New Jersey the
Democrats are out to capture the sem
atorship now held by Senator Hamil-
ton F. Kean, Republican.
While occasional interesting situa-
tions are arising in the primaries of
the States which are to make House
nominations next month. the sena-
torial contests are looming largest.
The possibility that former Senator
James Eli Watson will stage come
back and return to the Senate adds
to the interest of the Indiana cam
paign.

Curtain Rises on
Democratic ShOaU
MNewHampshire
State Election Campaign
Gets Under Way
at Banquet.
Special Dispatch to The Star.


MANCHESTER, N. H., April 21.-
New Hampshire Democracy raised the
curtain on the 1884 State election
campaign, last night, with Gov. Joseph
B. Ely of Massachusetts, Representa-
tive William N Rogers Of Wakefield
and John S. Hurley of Manchester,
chief of the alcohol division of the
United States Department of Justice,
as the keynoters.
Five hundred Democrats, represent
ing every county in the State, packed
the banquet hall and dining room OF
the Carpenter Hotel and cheered
Justify when Gov. Ely observed that
whenever the American people are
in real trouble, on nearly all occasions,
they have turned to the party OF
Jefferson, Cleveland and Wilson as
they did last year."
The applause was equally vociferous
when the Bay State chief executive,
referring to his last visit to Man.
chester in the midst of the presidential
primary campaign, said that he was
never ashamed of the fact that he
came to New Hampshire to speak in
behalf of Gov. Alfred E. Smith.
Representative Rogers brought the
message the Democrats we're waiting
to hear when he said briefly, II still
like my job and will continue to stay
on it as long as you want me-"
The declaration by the senior Repre-
sentative definitely placed him as a
candidate for reelection and removed
him from the ranks of potential
gubernatorial candidates.
President Roosevelt and the Con-
gress have sold the country something
besides legislation, something more
important" Mr. Hurley told the gath
ering They have taught the coun-
try how to smile and how to be
confident. A Democratic manage
ment has put millions back to work
and has demonstrated that no special
group can ask for privileged legisla-
ton If contrary to the people as a
whole"
Turning to the State political situa-
ton, Mr.. Hurley admonished the
party leaders that Hillsborough County
and Manchester should have attention
and respect in the matter of pa
tronage as well as providing the SUBJ
stantial Democratic margins they
have been giving for years.
Speaking with these nationally
known Democrats were Attorney Leo
Doherty of Boston, Mayor Damase
Caron, who gave the message of
greeting, and Mayor Alvin Lucier of
Nashua.
Sponsoring the banquet, one of the
largest ever conducted by Man.
chester political organization, was the
Jefferson Club.

MONEY STREAMS
INTO IOWA TRADE
Gains of rs to 100 Per Cent
Reported by Merchants
in All Lines.
Special Dispatch to The Star.

DEs MONIES, Iowa, April 81
(N.A.NA).-Cash registers are ring
ing merrily to the tune of business is
good" in the stores of Iowa merchants.
Business classifications of almost
every kind show gains of from 25 to
100 per cent and more as compared to
a year ago. Motor car sales have
made the most marked gains.
Business men credit the satisfactory
gains to:
/. The millions received by Iowa
farmers in corn loans.
2. The large pay rolls Of c. w. A.
8. The general feeling of restored
confidence, with its accompanying
loosening Of purse strings.
4. The fact that the majority Of
the States consumers have done with
out needed supplies for SO long. The
buying point" now has been reached.
Regret c. W. A. Loss.
There is, of course, another side to
this optimistic picture. Metropolitan
centers are admittedly apprehensive
over the loss Of c. w. A. pay rolls
and the resultant increase in county
relief demands.
Smaller communities are taking the
loss of C. w. A. calmly, many mer-
chants declaring Eve haven't felt it
yet" Business men are looking for
ward to the expected influx of corn
hog contract payments to offset losses
which may result from the passing of
c. w. A.
The increased feeling Of confidence
is noticeable among both merchants
and farmers.
The farmer is not as pleased as the
merchant. but he admits he's feeling
better. He liked the corn loan-he's
not SO happy over the corn-hog con-
tract plan. He spent his corn loan
money mostly for taxes and interest.
Now the moneys gone and he's right
back where he was. But whether he
likes the corn-hog contract plan or
not, he's looking forward to receiving
the money-hopes it will come in time
to buy Spring work essentials.
Clothing Sales Gain.
In addition to striking upturn in
new car and used car sales, clothing
lines also are showing a satisfactory
upturn. Department stores are doing
business on a much increased scale.
Shoe stores have fallen in line with
the Statewide business gain, as have
food stores, although the uptrend is
'spottier" in these branches.
Wholesalers and jobbers in general
announced substantial gains, but in
dustrial pay rolls have not made out
standing strides.
Farm machinery is moving slowly,
''but better than year ago." sales
men reported.

INCOME
FROM BEER FEES
CUTTING DEFICIT
Better Tax Collections Are
Factor-City 2 Months
Behind in Pay.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
CHICAGO. April 21.-Only $8,O00,-
900 separates Chicago from a long
sought punctuality In paying its mu-
nicipal employees.
In the past year, Controller r. B.
Upham said today, the city has closed
the gap between pay days and actual
pay disbursements by three and half
months.
With a monthly pay roll of approxi-
mately $4,000,000, the city is now two
months behind in salaries to its po-
licemen, firemen and other workers,
as compared with 515 month delin-
quency this time last year.
But the city has many other debts
which are not paid, although 1t has
met all bond interest and maturity
demands throughout its financial di-
lemma, which started with reasSess-
ment Of Cook County property several
years ago and was aggravated by the
economic depression.
Limits Delinquencies.
1t is the controllers job In part to
see that incoming cash Is disbursed
among the various categories of cred
itors so that no type Of obligations get
too far delinquent.
Chicago now has some $31 900 900
in cash in the various city funds, but
it is not available to clean up its back
pay roll bills.
1T Is the total Of various funds
which have been set aside for particu-
lar purposes and which cannot be
touched except for those purposes" +"
explained Upham.
"One Of the helps Of the past year,
at least for the miscellaneous city
fund, has been the liquor license reve-
nue." said Upham. For 1888, mostly
for beer permits, the city collected
$1,740,000. So far this year. from
last December, when the new ordi-
nance became effective, tavern licenses
have given us sl,970,750.
Its not a great sum compared with
the city's vast obligations, but it's a
lift in the right direction"
Collections Improve.
Tax collections have improved the
past year. Tax bills have been re-
duced. Operating costs Of the major
local governments, including the city.
as distinguished from fixed bond and
interest charges. have been lowered 40
per cent from 1880.
Other city and local officials have
also been encouraged by the approach
of daylight" in the fiscal problem
gloom, though employees Of the Chi
cago School Board and others are
much further back in salary arrears
than city employees.
Newton c. Farr, chairman Of the
Executive Committee of the Chicago
Recovery nistration-Mayor Ed
ward ]. Kelly's counterpart of the N.
r. A-recently told group of busi-
ness men that despite the heavy debt
load Of $500, 100000 in the form Of
outstanding bonds, tax warrants, un-
paid bills and pay rolls, the city and
county governmental units have made
substantial progress.
City authorities are urging a pro-
posed change in the State constitu-
ton revenue article which would al
low refunding Of public debts. This,
Farr estimated, would save $40 00O, 900
in interest charges.
