Safety on Highway

Now that the section of the
state motor vehicle law re-
quiring the display of flares
by trucks or buses parked
along highways at night has
been declared unconstitution-
al, the Legislature should
amend the law without delay
to cure the defect defined by
the court. Meanwhile, a vol
untary adherence to the OBJ
vious intent of the law by
drivers of motor trucks and
buses would be commendable.
There is need of such safe
guards to protect lives. The
courts ruling was based on
the fact that the section ap-
piled only to trucks and buses,
pleasure cars being exempt.
1t required the driver of such
a vehicle, after stopping it on
the highway at night for
more than three minutes, to
place a lighted torch or red
lantern between 100 and 150
feet in the rear. Buses dis
charging or taking on pas
sengers were exempt. Says
the Morning News:
"The fact that the law did
not apply to pleasure cars was
held to be discriminatory. In
this connection the court
pointed out that instances of
collisions with private cars
parked on the highway result
ing in the practical ruin of
the vehicles, and in deaths of
the occupants, are so numer-
Gus that it is impossible to re-
gard differences in weight (of
vehicles) as reasonable basis
for the classification made by
the statute. Nor may it be
said that pleasure cars are
parked on the highway less
frequently than are trucks
and buses"
"The Importance of streng-
thening every phase of our
automobile law, so far as its
safety features are concern
ed, never was more apparent
than it is today. Deaths from
automobile accidents thruout
the country in January, the
first month in the new year,
for example, numbered 3,050,
an all-time high.
Setting aside of the flare
law on the grounds cited
doubtless will be observed
with interest by motor vehicle
control authorities in other
states. The statutes requir-
ing use of flares at night in
most states are similar in
scope to the Delaware law.
Most of them require trucks
and buses to use flares, but
place no such stipulation upon
parked or stalled pleasure

Bright Earnings Outlook
Cited for Investors by

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, June 28.-The e!ec-
trical equipment industry has been
selected by Poor's Publishing Co. as
one OF the ten industries which offer
the best profit opportunities for in
vestors.
According to the company's indus
try and investment surveys, the i'm
proved demand enjoyed by equipment
manufacturers so far In 1897 has
lifted earning power to 1880 levels In
many instances. The improvement
has been broad, ranging from COM
panies specializing solely In the
production OF single household appli-
ances to large organizations producing
an extensive line Of products for use
in the utility and industrial fields, Is
well as In the home.
There Is every indication that the
electrical equipment industry as a
whole will extend further the gains
made to date" states the analysis.
Increased electric power consump-
ton and prospects for further expan-
sion to much higher record peaks are
forcing electric power and light COM
panies into the market for new CEN
trail station equipment. This expan-
sion movement promises to be ac-
celerated and to result in a volume
Of electrical equipment business that
may set new records within the next
few years
I'm addition to a lucrative utility
business, electrical equipment compa-
nies can look forward with confidence
to increasing orders from industry in
general, as rising earnings provide the
incentive for rehabilitation and ex-
pansion projects. Meanwhile, pros
pective further gains in consumer
purchasing power will mean increased
sales of consumers goods, such as
refrigerators, washing machines, air
conditioning units and sundry other
electrical equipment for the home
Greater volume of building should
also rebound to the industry's benefit
by increasing demand for wiring and
fixtures.
consequently. the present year
promises to witness increased volume
and favorable earnings for all branches
of the electrical equipment industry
Although competition among manu-
facturers Of household appliances will
remain keen, expanding sales should
sustain the upward earnings trend"

PACE MAINTAINED
At STEEL PLANTS
Active Operations Continue,
Despite Some Signs OF
Buying LuII.
Py the Associated Press.

Ey the Associated Press.
CLEVELAND, June 28.-Steel mills
are continuing operations at q high
rate despite some signs of Summer
lull in buying, the magazine Steel said
today In its weekly review OF the In
dustry.
"As an Offset TO declining needs of
automotive manufacturers. while new
models are being prepared, projecting
needs in various other lines. largely
heavy products, promise fairly early
placing of substantial lots for late
Summer and Fall delivery" the re-
view said. With the large tonnAges
already on books, this promises to keep
production relatively high past the
usual Summer lull."
The magazine said Inland Steel Co.,
one OF the four independent concerns
involved in the steel strike, has orders
on books for three months from the
date Of resuming operations.
Tin plate producers were reported
pressed to accept new business, with
little relief possible, since most pro-
ducers are sold to capacity to Septem-
Der 30.
The national operating rate was
given as "a per cent of capacity, down
l p points from the previous week,
largely due to the enforced shutdown
OF Bethlehem Steel's Johnstown, Pa.
plant. The Pittsburgh rate dropped 10
points to 81, Youngstown dropped to
20. Buffalo dropped to 88 and Gin
cinnati lost to &c. Cleveland district
gained 3 points to 40 per cent. Detroit
2 to SO, and New England 10 to 90.
Chicago was stationary at 6312 per
cent. Eastern Pennsylvania held at
81, Wheeling at SO, Birmingham at SO
and st. Louis at SO.
The steel works scrap composite was
unchanged at SIT for the first time
since a decline started in April. The
iron and steel composite lost 2 cents
to s397s, through an adjustment. The
finished steel composite remained at
s6l7O
Structural steel awards last week
were given as 59.l9l tons, the largest
since the week of January 30.
NEW YORK, June % (P,-Opera-
tons in the steel industry for the cur
rent week declined 8 of a point to 75.O
per cent OF capacity, compared with
1873 per cent last week, the American
Iron g. Steel Institute estimated today.
A month ago operations averaged
TIA per cent Of capacity while a year
ago the rate was 74.0 per cent.
A spokesman for the institute said
the back-to-work movement at some
plants which had been affected by
strikes was insufficient to offset shut
downs elsewhere for vacation periods
and in some cases for the Fourth of
July holiday.
