Watch Out for
More Upsets
in 1852

WASHINGTON, d. C.-Watch out for
more upsets in your business and personal
planning during the rest of this year.
You may be badly fooled if you decide
that things are going to 60 along az usual.
As the Editors of U. S. News & World
Report analyze it, some prices will rise,
but others will slump. Some kinds of
business will boom-others may not sur.
vive. Many personal incomes will 60 up,
but taxes will take bigger bite. There
will be more beef, more housing-and
more strikes. Behind the political scene
deals are being made which may offer
you surprises.
But no matter what happens, the 500, 900

Business Holds Pace,
Plant Output Sagging
Under Steel Shortage
BY 7. {. AppIegote
Assoeioted Press Financial WriAor

ASSocidted PreSS Finonetol Writer
NEW YORK. June 28.-Indus-
trial output sagged under the
weight Of a steel shortage in the
1lnal week before 1925 midpoint,
but business held its pace pretty
well.
Steel strike losses included:
Nearly billion dollars worth of
steel products, more than q quar-
ter billion dollars in steel wages,
close to million workers already
on strike, idle or about to be laid
off,.
Scheduled production cutbacks
by makers of automobiles and
auto parts. washing machines and
other civilian articles, mounted
daily.
Retail Sales Hold Up.
In spite of all this. retail sales
volume stayed at a relatively high
level. Department store sales
topped the like 1851 week the
fourth straight time. Bank check
transactions in major cities were
greater than a year ago. Record
gains in savings account deposits
were reported.
Economic indicators like electric
power output and crude oil pro-
duction also compared favorably.
Here are some of the results for
the first 6 months of the year:
Steel plants turned out around
45.3 million net tons of ingots and
steel for castings. one of the best
half years on record although be-
low the 52,304. 900 tons produced
in the like 1851 period.
Automobile makers assembled
3 million cars. higher than ex-
pected, against some 81 million
q year earlier.
Heavy construction awards for
26 weeks totaled $6,782,714 900
compared with $7,282, ,929 900 In
the similar weeks q year ago.
Some Industries Improve.
Some industries such as textiles
and shoes, in the midst Of a slump
as the year began. were showing
signs Of recovery at midyear.
Most exhibitors at Chicago's sum-
mer furniture market reported
satisfactory sales.
The nations gross national pro-
duct (total value Of goods and
services) was at a 1923 billion an
nual rate in the first quarter and
slightly higher in April and May
before the steel strike. Last
year the figure was $319.5 million
in the first quarter and climbed
to a peak above $334.5 billion in
the final quarter.

'Lohman Says Myths
Hamper Solution Of
D. T.. Race Problem

Solution of WaShington'S racial
problem has been slowed down be-
cause of certain myths that exist
in the minds of people, DR.. Joseph
-. Lohman. chairman of the Ma
tional Capital Planning Commits
sion. said last night.
DR.. Lohman was a speaker at a
leadership training course which
met at the Washington Fedora
tion of Churches headquarters at
1751 N street NV. The course,
first in series. was sponsored by
the Washington Fellowship.
A panel of speakers, however,
traced the progress in removing
segregation here and termed it
amazing
Sees Orderly Solution.
DR.. Lohman said these myths
included: A feeling that changes
in the status of the Negro cannot
be made in the South or border
States; false idea that minority
groups will overrun the majority
group; belief that any changes
in racial status must be accom-
panied by violence.
DR.. Lehman said he noted a
great improvement in the feelings
of people in Washington in regard
to racial matters. He said it was
of considerable credit to the peo-
pie that they have moved toward
the concept that the change must
come.
Public officials. he continued,
should be able to handle any
situation that may arise and give
threat of violence in light of the
knowledge of human understand
ing we now have. He said it was
basic to any solution of the racial
problem that the dispute be
settled in an orderly fashion ac-
cording tc law.
Directed Racial Study.
DR.. Lohman was director of
study made four years ago on the
racial situation in Washington.
The report then was highly
critical of the segregated pattern
in the city.
Members of the panel who
traced the progress in the District
in the last few years were DR..
Edwin B. Henderson. head of the
physical education department in
the Districts colored schools; Mrs.
Henry Gichner, vice president of
the United Community Services;
Mrs. Josephine Kyles. director of
Christian education for the Wash
ington Federation of Churches;

Missing Taxpayers
Receive S344,444

The Internal Revenue Bureau
located 10,119 "lost" taxpayers in
the District, Virginia and Mary
land during the first nine months
this year and refunded them
1884, ,444 in taxes.
The bureau also is processing
the applications of about $4,000
Virginia taxpayers who say they
are the citizens entitled to $375,-
900 in refunds.
Newspapers across the Nation
led the hunt for the missing tax
payers. The newspapers printed
lists of persons who were entitled
to refunds, but could not be To-
Gated by the Internal Revenue
Bureau. When the taxpayers saw
their names in the paper, they
lined up for their checks.
Twenty-Five newspapers in Vir-
|ginia printed local names, while
four newspapers in Maryland and
the District printed lists.
Internal Revenue said that from
January l to September 80 it
sent 1902 refund checks to citi-
zens of the District and Mary
land, which for accounting pur-
poses are grouped together. The
checks were worth $163,969.
Internal Revenue still has 81, 500
checks totaling $2.740.279 for other
persons who filed in the District
and Maryland.
During the first nine months
this year, Internal Revenue sent
refunds Of $170,475 to 7,027 Vir-
ginians. Even after the $4,000
checks now being processed are
distributed, Internal Revenue will
