etaI-Working Machines
Bolster u. :, Defense

: The abiblbity of any nation to de-
fend itself depends largely on that
nations productive equipment. In
the case of the United States, with
its relatively small stores of defense
equipment, the productive capacity
OF Americas Woodworking industry
is a primary factor in current de-
fense plans. The productive capacity
OF that industry, greatest of that
of any nation in the world, has just
been dramatically shown by the
latest inventory Of Woodworking
equipment made by American Ma
chinist. This shows total of l ,323,-
131 Woodworking machines and
324, ,345 units Of plant service equip
ment.
The survey further shows a total
of 11,050 units of metal-working
equipment in the rapidly expanding
aircraft industry, 93,961 in motor
vehicle plants and 95 800 more units
in the motor vehicle body and part
plants, all of which are vitally i'm
portant in the production of national
defense items. Army arsenals, which
would act as pilot plants in the
event of national emergency, are
shown to have 15,803 units Of equip
ment. Agricultural implement plants
have 1881.
Plans for industrial mobilization
have already been laid which will
throw this tremendous productive
capacity into the manufacture of
armament, motorized equipment,
and other defense items in the event
of national emergency.

Retail Trade Slowed
By Poor Weather
And War News
Volume Is Estimuted
Z to 5 Per Cent
Above Year Ago
BY the Associated Press,

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, May 31.-War and
adverse weather were blamed by
merchants for generally disappoint-
ing retail trade during the last
week, Dun g. Bradstreet said today
in it's weekly survey.
Retail volume for the Nation was
estimated 2 to per cent higher
than last year.
"The only region to maintain its
year-to-year increase" asserted the
review, was the Middle West, where
industrial centers recorded gains
averaging S to II per cent. Sales
in the East, which have been most
susceptible to stock market trends
and war moves, were a little under
year ago, the total decrease being
no more than per cent.
"Rtailers continued to buy as
close to the vest as possible. For
the most part the only orders
placed during the week were to
round out summer stocks or pro-
motional lines.
Wholesalers pointed out, how
ever, that the slowing down in trad
ing by no means signifies disrup-
ton of markets. Although retailer
sentiment is said to have been quite
deeply affected by recent develop
ments abroad. few attempts have
been made to withdraw orders or
put pressure on prices"

NEW YORK, May 31.-Steels and
aircrafts, buoyed by prospects Of
growing domestic and foreign arma-
ment demands. provided the main
bullish leadership in today's stock
market.
1t was far from a one-Way trend,
however, and gains running to or
more points for favorites in the
forenoon were reduced at the close.
and numerous issues were about
even to down a shade.
The final session for May was one
of the slowest of the month, trans
fers for the five hours approximate
ing $4,000 shares.
War news was hardly to the liking
of speculative forces, although some
voiced hopes stronger Allied stand
would be made following the retreat
from Flanders. Many traders, with
European dispatches continuing
cloudy, inclined to stretch their
Thursday recess through the week
end on the theory developments
abroad might take a spectacular
turn before Monday.
OF especial interest to Wall Street
in the latter part of the session was
action of the President in asking
Congress for supplemental defense
appropriation of over billion
dollars"
Stocks in front the greater part of
the day were U. S. Steel, Bethlehem,

Reach Best May
Mark Since 1929
'TotuI for Five Months
Also Rises Sharply
Above Yeor Ago
BY EDWARD C. STONE.

Bank clearlngs in Washington
In May were the highest for the
month since 1929, it was learned
today from George H. Bright, man
ager of the Clearing House Assocla-
ton. Clearings in the first five
months of this year were also far
ahead of the like 1899 period and
for much longer time.
May clearings in the Capital to-
tailed $l18,940, ,25696, as compared
with s96,395 ,S09.22 in May, 1889, a
gain of s22,544,44774. In being the
highest for the past 10 years, they
compare with May, 1929, clearings
OF s126,836. 1871.
While May clearings usually show
a falling off from April, this was
not true this year, the May results
revealing a gain over April of more
than $3,O0O.0O0.
Clearings in Washington in the
first five months of this year totaled
$545 ,094 ,929.42, against S479,201, ,131O O5
in the same month last year, or an
increase so far in 1910 of $65 ,893,-
1887. This sharp advance indicates
steady business improvement in the
Capital. The f1ve-month clearings
were the highest since 1890, when
the total stood at $559, 1863, ,862.61.
Clearings by months in 1910 COM
pare as follows with the like months

Local Physicians Join,
But Form No CHAPTER

Doctors in Washington have been
advised personally of the formation
of the new National Physicians
Committee for Extension of Medical
Service, with headquarters in Chi
,ago, and some local physicians have
joined the movement, it was learned
today from the District Medical So
ciety.
There is no intention, however.
Of setting up new local organiza-
ton in this city to act as chapter,
or unit of the National Physicians
Committee, it was said.
The announcement from Chicago
today follows virtual abandonment
by the Medical Society here of its
own plan proposed to provide pre-
payment medical care for the low
income groups through Mutual
Health Service. The proposal here
was dropped, temporarily because OF
lack Of public support.
