JOB, PAY DROP
HELD SEASONAL

Denying abandonment of NRA
has retarded business, Secretary
of Labor Perkins yesterday
ascribed employment and payroll
declines in June to seasonal
Weekly payrolls dropped $400,-
900 and 10000 fewer persons were
employed in industry during June,
a Labor Department survey
showed.
Miss Perkins said:
1--WE find q general stability
Of employment in most indus
tries. There have been some
specific cuts in nay and hours
but not generally. even in a
single industry.
TN nine of the Is years
covered by our survey, there
have been employment and pay
roll reductions in June, which is
more or less an off season for
business. We look for increased
industrial activity during the
next few months.
"MOSt ENCOURAGING has been
the revival of private building.
Employment in this industry in
creased 4.6 per cent in June
while the number of permits for
residential building doubled
that of last year."

LOANS
SHOW RISE

NEW YORK, July 24.-Large
New York commercial banks dur
ing the past three months ex-
tended the largest volume of busi-
ness credit in some time, a Wall
Street compilation disclosed yes
terday. Loans and discounts of
% New York national institutions
rose $62, 300 between March 4
and June 20, the two last report
ing dates under the call of the
Comptroller of the Currency.
In the same period gross de-
posits of these banks increased
$44,5o2, 500.
Because the loans and discounts
items indicate bank lending activi-
ties, the expansion in their credit
lines was viewed of great signifi
canoe in financial circles. It was
taken to indicate that business is
seeking capital on the heaviest
scale in many months and that
the banks are willing to grant &C
commodations to legitimate and
eligible borrowers.
Another evidence of the increas-
ing use of regular banking facili-
ties for new funds is found in the
almost complete standstill in the
working capital lending operations
of the New York Federal Reserve
Bank. The latter's industrial
loans have remained practically at
an unchanged aggregate for the
last four weeks.
Loans and discounts of the %
New york banks included in the
compilation totaled $1,222,475 300
on June 20, compared with $780,
023, 900 on March 4. Aggregate
loans and discounts of 13 State
banks were up $4.681. 100 in the
period but their deposits were $34,-
812, 100 lower.

Drivers Signal Here
Means s Look Out!9

just what are the proper hand
signals for Washington motorists?
Prompted by Major Ernest w.
Browns order to all policemen to
be on the lookout for persons who
fail to use hand signals, when
the Official Traffic and Motor We
hicle Regulations of the District
C.: Columbia devote only one brief
section to them, The Times set
out to determine just what the
correct signals are.
Sign Means Anything"
Startling as it may seem, there
is only one official hand signal in
the District of Columbia. That
which is made by extending the
left arm horizontally out of the
window can denote not only right
and left turn, but intention to
stop, pull out from the curb. or
make a U turn in the middle of
a block.
Thus it means, broadly:
Look out! Anything may
happen"
According to Inspector B. w.
Lamb. in charge of the Traffic
Bureau, the present signal was
adopted about two years ago that
Washington might conform with
the Hoover system of traffic regu-
lations, a widely used code for
the direction of traffic which is
now accepted as standard in most
important cities of the country.
To simplify things he said, the
several hand signals formerly used
were abolished and the single sign
was adopted.
Inspector Lamb was asked how
a person was to know just which
one of these things motorist in
front of him intended to do. His
answer was that by not knowing
precisely which one was to be
done, he drove with great deal
more caution in order that he
would not crash regardless OF
what was done.

Vehicle Regulations, amended TO

P0LICEL EL|QUOR
BAN EASEDBY
COUNTY

ROCKVILLE, July 24.-All was
calm and serene among the ranks
Of the Montgomery county police
force today following the an
nouncement late yesterday that
the board Of Montgomery county
commissioners had agreed to re-
scind their former action, and
grant to the police the privilege
of partaking of Intoxicating liquors
within the confines Of their homes
or outside Montgomery county,
while off duty.
This action was taken by the
board following a conference with
seven sergeants of the police force
yesterday during which the police
delegation insisted the regulation
prohibiting them from drinking
beer or other liquors while on or
off duty was too stringent.
At the time the police were
placed under Civil Service rating
several months ago the regulation
prohibiting them from using in
toxicants in any form was adopted
by the board and enforced. Since
that time the police have stub
bornly fought to have it amended
or annulled.
In recommending a more leni-
ent regulation, F'usionist Commits
sioner Paul M. Coughlan, dratter
of the original, said:
Perhaps it has been a little
strict, and 1 am in favor Of
giving the police a little more
privilege along this line"

No cases were reported from

Fears that an epidemic might
sweep the Capital were discounted
by DR.. George C. Rutland, Dis
trict health officer. Only one
new case was reported in Wash
ington, bringing the total to
three cases since Saturday, or II
for the year. In 1888 there was
a total of IA cases and 13 in 1884.
Precautions were being taken

UNABLE
TO COPE WITH
BEETLES

SPRING LAKE, N. j.. July "a.
Municipal officials up and down
the New Jersey shore went down
to defeat today when they sought
to exterminate the countless
hordes of Japanese beetles washed
up on the beaches over the week
end.
The insects, unable to fly but
still alive, were washed in faster
than they could be swept into
piles and burned. At Belmar,
Seaside Park, Bay Head and
Spring Lake, it was admitted the
fight was hopeless.
Both State and Federal ento-
mologiStS admitted campaign to
exterminate them as they lay on
the beaches would have negligible
results. Elwood Douglass, an
agent for the Monmouth County
Agricultural Extension Bureau, at
Freehold, said such course
would be hopeless.
His statement was backed up
by c. H. Hadley, of Moorestown.
VINO mas cnarge OF Cne united

At Seabright, N. j., Police
Magistrate Walker j. Sweeney
said lifeguards and police were

them. At Belmar, to the south,
Mayor Thomas Dillon said moth.
ing was being done to kill the
millions on that beach. Mayor

STEEL RATE UP
THREE POINTS
FOR WEEK

NEW YORK, July 24.-Rising
3 points above last weeks rate
to 431a per cent of capacity, steel
ingot production has recovered
all Of the ground lost since the
middle of May, Iron Age reported
today. The increase is the third
consecutive advance since Inde-
pendence Day week and promises
to be followed by further gains.
A revival Of buying by auto
mobile makers, heavier orders
from the railroads, larger takings
OF tin plate, sustained farmer
buying Of implements and trac-
tors. increase specifications
from jobbing interests and ris-
ing demand for miscellaneous
sources are among the factors
which are giving the iron and
steel market a degree Of buoy
ancy that is remindful Of pre-
depression times. Though pur-
chasing is still predominantly at
close range, there is increasing
interest in forward requirements,
with some buyers placing orders
that would be ordinarily deferred
until late summer or early fall.
The unexpected staying power
Of retail demand for automobiles
has not only deferred the COM
pletion of old model runs but
has expedited the purchase Of
materials for new models. AS
semblies this month will total
close to 275,000 units, and even
August, which a few weeks ago
was expected to be an exceeding
~ slim month, is likely to make
a good showing. Chevrolet, still
trying to keep abreast Of de-
mand, is scheduling 100000 units
for next month and will proba-
bly, continue to produce 1885 cars
through most of September.
Chrysler will build current mod
els until late in August.
The period of transition from
present to new models is ex-
pected to be unusually short.
Ford's Rouge plant will shut
down from the night of July 26
to the morning of August IL,
when work on 1885 cars will be
begun.

Cotton Goods

NEW YORK, July "a s.).-An-
other day passed yesterday without cot
ton goods traders making any appreci-
able advance toward solution Of the diff
ficulties which have beset the market
since the court decision last week predi-
Gated the possibility of invalidation OF
the processing tax. Today markets were
quiet. with prices unchanged as the
deadlock persisted. Boiled down, the
question amounts to who gets the bene-
fit of abrogation Of the tax: the mills
or the buyers. The mills believe that
the price of goods should be maintained
even IL the tax is abolished, since the
price is extremely low at present. while
buyers hold that at least a partial re-
duction should be made.
