EARNS

Guggenheim Cites Valuation
of Inventory Based on
Foreign Prices.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, March 1.-THE an
nual report of the American Smelling
& Refining Co. and subsidiaries for
1884 shows net income of s7,5S3, ,2O2
after all charges, taxes and interest,
equal after preferred dividend re-
quirements to s163 share on the
common stock. This compares with
s6,OlO,383, or n cents a common
share in 1898.
In his letter to stockholders, Simon
Guggenheim. president, stated that
net income in the first half of the
year amounted to $4,263,577, whereas
IN the second halt it dropped to So
3l9,625 owing in part to inventory
adjustment In the valuation Of the
excess stock Of domestic copper.
"All unsold metal stocks as of De-
cember 3d." the letter stated, were
valued as usual at the lower of cost
or market, except that the domestic
copper inventory has been valued still
lower. at the refinery quotation for
foreign copper.
Under the copper code, current
production must first be sold, and
then stocks, both proportionately
among code members. In the last
six months. the market has been
fully supplied by current production
and no additional stocks have been
sold. There Is not, therefore, q free
market in the United States for the
sale of stocks.
In view Of this code situation. 1t
was deemed conservative to value
your company's stocks of domestic
copper at the foreign price, because
that represents free and open mar
ket, rather than at the United States
price, which does not. The price at
which they have been valued is $40
cents pound. At the lower of cost
or United States market, the valua-
tion of these stocks would have been
7.54 cents pound"
In terms Of earnings per share, the
letter pointed out, the difference in
this valuation represents 81 cents
share and had the usual basis been
used would have brought the COM
pany's earnings up to s2.l4 share
for the year.
The surplus account at the END of
the month, after giving effect to an
appropriation of s5o0,000 for obso-
lescence and contingencies, and
after preferred dividend requirements
of S7,875,000, was Sll.6l8.564, COM
pared with s12,410,362 at the be-
ginning of the year.

SMALL RISE SEEN
At STEEL PLANTS
National Average Climbs 2
Points to so Per Cent
Mark.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
CLEVELAND, March 1.-THE ma
tional average Of steel operations rose
two points to so per cent, through
sustained shipments and consumption
of fiat-rolled steel and a moderately
broadening demand for structural steel
and pipe, the magazine Steel states
today.
Sheet and strip mills, operating at
rs per cent. have accumulated Suffi-
cient backlogs, mainly from automo-
bile manufacturers, to continue at this
level for five of six weeks, with specifi-
cations extending as far ahead as May.
Automobile assemblies, the magazine
states, increased to $4,000 units last
week from $4,000 the week before.
The industry now estimates second
quarter production at from 300, 900 to
100000 per month.
Higher prices of farm products are
stimulating demand for agricultural
implements, Steel continues. Manu-
facturers are experiencing their best
operations In five years and some are
encountering a shortage of skilled
machine operators
Tin plate mills are scheduled for an
advance from the current rate of 80
per cent operations. Two leading can
manufacturers have consumed more
tin plate so far this year than in any
similar period in their history.
Railroad orders expected to call for
100000 tons of rails are being de-
ferred until Fall, the magazine reports.
Steel's iron and steel price composite
is reduced 3 cents to S32 40; finished
steel unchanged at $54 and the SCRAP
index is down IL cents to sll.04.

A WOMAN'S VIEWPOINT
BY Mrs. Walter Ferguson

A NEW kind of education for girls has evolved
L n in time. One now may get lessons in Of
fee etiquette, ones mother got lessons in parlor
etiquette and social decorum.
There is difference, however; whereas in the
past both sexes required to keep the rules
nowadays great deal is said to the girls on this
subject and very little to the men.
when you come up against the male firt" says
one authority in her lecture to working women
and every Office has one-you must just laugh him
off"
Which is easier said than done, as every girl
knows who has had any experience He may be the
boss, or the boss understudy.
Thus the situation can become delicate one for
the wage-earner with job hanging upon her cor
rect department. And if. as we hear, these Office
Romeos are not really serious We know also that
they can exercise tyranny too many girls.
1t seems to me then that any code of behavior
which does set up rules for men as we'll as wom-
en- is sorry arrangement.
The girl who works for her living must in the
last analysis, be smart enough to make her own
rules each of which must be thought up to fit the
occasion. This much, however, she would do we'll
never 10 forget There is code of ethics which
decent man observes in his behavior to woman
wherever she may be.

THE RED CROSS

seems superfuous to urge people to join the Red
- Cross during its annual campaign. Yet with the
government doing so much to help the distressed
some may imagine that they excused from join
ing.
However, the Red Cross being voluntary band
ing together of people to do rescue work in
gencies, it has a special place in American life And
since the people hope and expect that some day the
government will be able to retire from the human
salvage field the Red Cross should be maintained
and strengthened against that time.
Answering the Red Cross roll call is not only good
citizenship, it is good sense

LAWYERS DILEMMA

On the other hand if the Liberty League de

ROGERS JR. STARTS OUT

WILL ROGERS JR. buys an interest in Cali
W fornia newspaper and thus begins his career.
The step means more than just a business venture.
He has the responsibility of bearing of the most
famous and most honorable names in America and
upon the medium through which he expresses himself
will depend to some extent the discharge of that
responsibility.
1t is a big order for 23-year-old who has had
everything he desired.
OF course, people not expecting young Rogers
to be like his father. Genius is sometimes, but not
often, transmitted. We had not heard that he had
shown any disposition to write or publish.
But electing publishing from among the many
occupations he could follow he suggests that he may
hope some time to carry in the tradition OF his
father.
He goes into his first undertaking with the kindly
interest and best wishes of millions.

1t Of the shortest campaigns in the
United Kingdoms history Premier Baldwin, leader

three weeks in which to turn him out.
Not only that but he caught them almost COM
pletely without issue. The campaign chiefly con-
cerned support of the League of Nations a
to world peace, which LaboriteS and Liberals, even
more than the Tories, Overwhelmingly favored.
The only real debate the question of
rearmament, which the Conservatives demand. Even
there the opposition caught off guard. For in
the most convincing fashion imaginable Italy was
daily proving that without force to back up sane
tons the League could hardly hope to make edcts
stick
