STEEL |NGOT RATE
BEST IN 6 YEARS
Iron Age Stresses Rush to
Cover Requirements Be.
fore Prices Rise,
Hy the Associated Press.

NEW YORK, June l7.-Ingot pro-
duction is up another point this week
to II per cent of capacity, the highest
level in more than six years, Iron Age
reported today.
The present high rate of activity is
traceable directly to the rush to cover
requirements before the new increased
prices go into effect July /. The trade
magazine said present production is a
full 10 points above the peak levels
reached when prices we're advanced
in June. 1884.
Steel makers, 1t was said, are cur
rently more concerned with the prob
lem of how much tonnage they should
take at prevailing quotations than
with the usual search for more busi-
ness. The present situation indicates
that while the new price scale ap-
plies to orders placed after July /,
buying before that date will have
satisfied requirements until some time
in August In the interim mills will
be occupied with releases against old
low-priced orders. the periodical said.
Finishing mill schedules are still
led by the tin plate division, where
output is currently exceeding theoreti-
cal capacity. Rail mills are slowing
down, with the Birmingham unit
scheduled to close at the end of the
week In other departments opera
tions are either maintained or slightly
heavier, it was said
Buyers of construction steel for
identified projects are now being given
only 80 days after bids are taken in
which to place their orders and as a
result the demand for plates, shapes
and reinforcing bars is increasing.
The raw material markets are fea-
tured by continued heavy contracting
for pig iron and a strong tone in
scrap. The Iron Age scrap composite
has moved up cents a gross ton to
s12.75, after an eight-week decline.
The pig iron composite is unchanged
at $18.84 a gross ton. In the absence
of sales of finished steel at third
quarter prices, the finished steel COM
posite remains at 2.0s7 cents q pound

Members of Deer Family
Fierce at Mating Time

Immediately following the perfect
development of new anters, says an
authority in the Detroit News, male
deer, elk. caribou and moose some
times become as savage rs whelp-
robbed tigers. The neck swels far
beyond its natural size, the eye pits
distend, and the buck goes stalking
about with ears laid hack and nostrils
expanded, fairly spelling for a fight.
Stays that were mild and gentle dur
Ing eight or nine months of the year
suddenly transform into murderOus
demons. ready and anxious to stab
to death any unarmed man who VEN
lures near. The loving pet of May
readily becomes the dangerous, fury
filled murderer of October. and man
not fully armed has little chance
with it.
This change in the disposition of an
otherwise gentle" animal is well
known by most hunters. 1t occurs
during their rutting or breeding
season and also accounts for many of
the fatal encounters between two
bucks, fighting for supremacy. Nat
uralists agree that during this period
there Is no more dangerous animal,
and they are not to be trusted under
any circumstances. Most of the seri-
GUS and fatal accidents that occur in
ZOOS, in which members of the deer
family are involved, happen during
this period, and the well-trained at
tendants take no chances with them.

is dangerous to the people to have
any man possess such powers, or to
allow any man to thus aspire to per.

The question is, not that these

wicked, if the New Deal is not con.
tinued. 1t is that they never should
be possessed by anybody in these

West Indian Hurricanes

Most Of the so-called West Indian
hurricanes come into existence over
the warm seas between the West In
dies and the coast of Africa. They
probably start as small eddies of air,
gather momentum owing to differences
in temperature and air pressure, until
they become gigantic whirls. The
routes followed by West Indian hur-
ricanes in general are similar, but the
storms differ much in their detailed
paths. They originate in the region
CT the trade winds and all move west

ward later.

WOMEN ARE NOT
so easy" AS MEN
IN FLATTERY GAME

What do you think of the claim
that women like admiration and fiat
terry as much as men and are no less
fools than men in the hands of one
Of the other sex who uses that meth
cd Of getting into their good graces?
Don't you think that's ridiculous?
I've never yet net a man who
wouldn't believe anything charming
and delightful about himself that any
woman might tell him. But I've seen
many man try to bamboozle a WON
an and fail because he laid it on too
thick" This was asked of a woman
writer Of note, who replied as fol-
lows:
think our reader has hit upon an
important truth in the relationship of
the sexes.
do not doubt for one moment that
women like admiration as much as
men-that is admiration from the
other sex. Indeed believe this is In
a way more important factor with
women than with men. BY that l
mean that while men may "eat up"
admiration from the other sex. that
Is not the motivating factor Of their
Interest In them; while with some
women delight in masculine admira-
ton is largely the root Of their enjoy
ment Of the society Of the other sex.
But-women are not so 'easy" as
men. A homely woman does not
easily accept mans insistence that
she is beautiful, but many bald, fat
man has been convinced he is an
Adonis. Women can be flattered,
but 1t has to be done more subtly.
Therefore the man who is wise will
discriminate in his fattery. He will
look for the "good points" which In
some form or other are possessed by
every woman, and concentrate ON
them, rather than attempt to endow
her with charms which she realizes
are not hers.
1t Is not that women like fiattery
less. but they have more difficulty
than men in putting entirely to sleep
their intelligence and common sense

stand on the East steps of the
Capitol is under way today.
Under the contract let the first
part of this week to James A.
Baird Co., the construction must
be finished two weeks before Jan,
uary 20 so that the structure may
be inspected to rigidly insure its
safety.
The stand this year will be the
largest ever built. Under the
provisions of the Norris Lame
Duck Amendment Congress will
be organized VIII en- President
Roosevelt is sworn in for his sec
ond term. In view Of this cir
cumstance provision has been
made to seat members of the
House Of Representatives for the
first time in the history of the
country.
The stand also is being con-
structed so that the Chief Execu-
tive will face, the majority of the
listeners when he takes the oath.
Previously the dignitaries have
been placed behind the presiden-
tial platform.
The stand will be set back II
feet from its regular position and
will be constructed so that the
President may walk out from the
steps directly on the stand instead
of down a ramp as was provided
at the last inaugural.

ADDITIONS AID
CHEST FUND

Disappointment was tempered
by appreciation at Community
Chest headquarters today as solicit
ing units continued to turn in
receipts for auditing and compila-
ton of the final report due Tues
day.
Disappointment was evident for
the failure of the drive to "go over
the top" in scheduled time. Ap-
probation was for the 1000 solici-
tors and the 10000 contributors.
Officially ended Tuesday night,
the drive is being continued with
a "clean up" campaign. BY this
means, it is hoped to reach per-
sons who were missed during the
drive of unit solicitors.
Coleman Jennings, campaign
chairman, reported as features of
the drive the increased number Of
individual gifts and the number
of additional gifts from contribu-
tors.
Work of the IS agencies which
are beneficiaIieS of the drive will
be hampered by the shortcomings
of the campaign, officials pointed
out,
