LLFASTERP PACE
Current Movement Called
One OF Most Unexpected
Swings on Record.
By the Associated Press.

NEW YORK, August 2l.-Report-
ing further rise in steel operations,
Iron Age said today that the current
movement "is one of the most unex-
pected upward swings in the history
of the industry"
The rate of ingot production has
advanced to 5012 per cent of capacity,
as compared with 40 per cent last
week, according to the publications
calculation. A similar trend Is eW-
dent in steel scrap prices, and the
Iron Age composite for heavy melt
ing was raised from s1208 to $3.50
a ton, making the highest level since
the third week in April, 1884. The
increase in mill schedules is the sew
enth in consecutive order since early
in July.
THE recent gains in steel mill
operations" the summary comment
ed. have been made in the face Of
reduced demands from the automo-'
bile industry and of tapering tin plate
mill operations, previously the twJ'
outstanding supports Of ingot output
4NI4SdGCo AIOtAl tA4C nupOAllOb4NC
dustry. influenced by between-model
suspensions, have dropped sharply in
certain centers, notable the Cleveland
Lorain district, where ingot output
has fallen from so to 43 per cent,
but are beginning to show signs Of
improvement elsewhere.
THE explanation for the sustained
advance in steel production, there
fore, lies among the minor and less
conspicuous outlets which. for want
Of a better term, have been labeled
miscellaneous.
Part Of the gain in unclassified
business is directly traceable to i'm
proved farmer buying; farm equip
ment and tractor plants continue to
operate at a high rate, the former
with hardly break for the transition
from Fall to Spring manufacturing

 IN WASHINGTON
How America Entered the Great War .. Confiden- tiaI Report Before Muni- tiOns PrObers Traces Course, Step by Step.
By RODNEY BUTCHER Democrat Washington
 Correspondent

Washington, May 1. = The long, devious road to war at last has been mapped and charted. It is the road America travelled an the years of her neutrality from August, 1914. to April, 1917. It is the same road America will travel again, according to Senate Muni- stions Committee investigators, if Another European war breaks out this summer-unless drastic new neutrality legislation is passed in the meantime.
 A confidential report now be- fore the committee shows for the first time the sequence of events and overwhelming pressures which swept the Wilson administration from its initial strict neutrality" position and its He Kept Us Out of War" campaign slogan of 1916 to point where American statesmen faced a choice between war and a domestic panic accompanied by Eureopean financial chaos.

Monagle's store where the woman had told him he would find his wife and son. AS he got nearly across the street, he was struck on the side of the head from behind and knocked unconscious. When he came to, he explained, he was groggy and continued on down to- ward the A. J. office because every body was going that way. Asked why he had not gone into the store to find his wife, the witness said he thought probably she had gone on as she would know she could find him anywhere there were a group of miners.
 1 Denies Alleged Motive
 Elstad denied that his family came down town that morning on purpose to heckle the marchers and shout "scab' at any one. i At the A. J. office, the witness said he saw Ed Maxi, a miner he knew, in danger of being struck with club and he went to his rescue. AS he did so he was struck twice on the head, he testified, and came to in the hospital where he was confined for 12 days suf- fering, he explained, from ifrac- tured skull. Elstad, who apparently had been on the witness stand be- fore, said he didn't know who hit him, that it was hearsay.
 Well, its all in now, anyway, replied Folta, tell us who it was.
 The witness replied that he understood it was Percy Reynolds one of the special officers on that day 4
 l Denies Blockade
 Elstad denied he had seen 2 blockade in the street near the union hall that morning and he did not believe there was any time when the marchers could not have passed on down the street He as- serted there was no resistance to the marchers either at the union hall so far as he knew, or at the A.
