GREATEST TRADE BOOM IN HISTORY SAID JUST AHEAD Judge Gary Foresees Wonderful Industrial Activity in Near Future Xrw York, July 27. Action courageous and constructive, statement positive and reassuring: came yesterday from the oard meeting of the United States b' Corporation. The board of directors, giving further effect to the present policy of the powerful Morgan group, declared the regular dividend on the worth of common stock, although it was not currently earned by nearly $4,575,000, and in face of corporate income for the second quarter of only $21,892,000, which is smaller than for any previous since the first three months of 1915, at which time the first effects of the war were seriously depressing all activities in this country. On Itliifct Read With such figures of actual results of the operations of the greatest industrial corporation in the United Stales before Mm, and with prices for steel products in every line tumbling and being slashed right and left. Judge E.

H. Gary, chairman of the steel corporation, came forth calmly from the meeting with the directors and declared his conviction that "industry is headed in the right direction," that "there awaits the biggest business this country has ever witnessed," adding that 'the fundamental facts for this conclusion are assured" and that "the undisputed figures amount to a demonstration." Judge Gary said the business results of the Steel Corporation for the quarter were not surprising to anyone familiar with general conditions. He added that many manufacturing concerns have been operating at a loss. This, he declared, is no less censurable than insisting upon "unconscionable profits" and cannot be long continued. Commenting upon lilt iUlUIC, IIC Future 1m Good "As stated at the meeting of the American Iron and Steel Institute last May, indujtry is headed in the right direction.

This means a great deal, for at some dale in the future there awaits the biggest business this country has ever witnessed. The fundamental facts for this conclusion are assured. The undisputed figures amount to a demonstration.

Marriage in San Francisco is a lottery, with the odils 1 to 2 for divorce, and payment of the $2 license fee a gamble at the same odds that 96 later wiU be paid for iding suit for divorce, according to the annual report of County Clerk Mulcrcvy, published yesterday. The report showed 7,583 marriage licenses were issued during the fiscal year ended June 30, 1921, while suits for divorce totaled S.678, or 48.5 per for the same period. not as yet have experienced, to a laige extent, the good results. Readjustments were necessary and they have been and are progressing with beneficial effect.

During the war extravagance and expenditures in many ways and departments, from the government down, were stupendous. Energy and effort were bent in the direction of building up new and expensive organizations ostensibly to assist in winning the war, and hundreds of millions were squandered. "There was an orgy of overcharging, overspending and waste. This was natural and perhaps inevitable. Now we are witnessing a contrary disposition, also from the government down, although not every man.

woman and child Is yet included in the effort to reduce, to economize and to save. Apparently, we shall soon have actual peace throughout the world. Construction, t.o operation and wisdom will supplant destruction, conflict and folly. Legislation will be calculated to assist rather than obstruct legitimate progress. Modern Godivas Use Auto, but Police Protest Moneanen, July 27.

Modern Lady Godivas they were, but instead of being astride milk white horses, Roxie Ford and Mandie Spauldins were perched high on the seats of a big limousine, wearing considerably less than their hair about them, if the testimony given before Squire Hallman last night was true. The Squire, to show his faith in the several witnesses, fined each of the girls 50 and costs on a number of charges. The two girls had been bathing at one of the numerous beaches on the Monongahela river and with an older woman driving their car they left in their bathing suits, which outdid anything in the one piece line seen here for many seasons. One' witness, in describing the girls' triumphant journey, said: "They sat high on the back of the automobile seat, wearing about tlte same thing I used to wear when I was a kid when 1 went swimming. We called them tights in those days.

Maybe they will pass for fashionable one piece bathing suits on the beach, but they looked a bit out of place on two pretty young girls driving down 'Main street." Beautiful Hershey Park The rumor tht the swimming pool is V. closed is absolutely not correct. This is the most popular place in the park. This pool is drained and washed out regularly each week and is now filled with fresh water for this week's bathers. COAL FACTS 1921 No.

15 DANGER OF COAL FAMINE INCREASES WISE people who know they must buy coal between now and next winter will buy it as soon as practicable. Foolish people who know they will have to buy coal will postpone buying and probably pay dearly in price and quality for doing so. In any year, in order to avoid a serious coal situation, coal must be mined, transported and delivered in approximately uniform volume throughout the year. Unless approximately one twelfth of a year's tonnage is moved each month, it is impossible during a normal winter for mines to produce or railroads to transport sufficient coal to meet the demand. A "bad situation" during fall and winter can be overcome if all those consumers who have storage capacity provide for their requirements during the summer.

This protects them in the event "of trouble in the fall and winter, and leaves all the remaining tonnage for those who have small storage capacity. The only thing that saved the country last winter from a coal famine was the unusually mild weather. You can just bet your last dollar that the coming winter will even up the warm weather of last winter and this spring and summer. United Ice Coal Co. Farater fwa Ma.
