STEEL MEN TO MAKE BID
FOR TRADE IN FRANCE
New York, March 6. —Steel manu
facturers to-day considered the French
government's action in annulling the
tariff on rails as a direct bid for im
portations from the United States. It
was thought that England's mills
would be able to do little in filling the
demand of French railways, because
of labor shortage and the call of her
colonial railways upon the surplus
output. It is believed here that the
tariff of $lB a ton probably will be re
stored as soon as the emergency has
passed, and such advantage as manu
facturers may obtain from the change
must be seized quickly.

School Board to Arrange
For New Building in Upper
End in Preparing Budget
At the April meeting of the School
Board necessary steps will be taken
by the directors to provide in the
budget for the cost of issuing $90,000
worth of bonds to cover the erection
of the proposed new school building
at Fifth and Mahantongo streets. The
floating of the bond issue was author
ized last evening by the board upon
motion of Director Werner. The
board, it is understood, can readily
float the bonds without going before
the people for authority. The original
provision asked by Mr. Werner was
$75,000, but as this was considered in
sufficient to provide a modern struc
ture of the type that director desired
the additional $15,000 was tacked on.
Although Director Yates offered odd
opposition to the plan, the directors
last evening turned over the uncom
pleted contract on the new Shimmell
building to the Edward B. Carley Com
pany. of New York. He is a subcon
tractor who is plastering the building.
Mr. Yates, when it became evident
that John W. Emory, the original con
tractor, couldn't go on with the work,
the Fidelity and Guaranty
Trust Company of Baltimore, Emory's
bondsman, should finish the job. The
structure is to be turned over com
pleted by June 12.
At a date to be definitely fixed dur
ing the latter part of this month the
School Board will make its annual
tour of inspection of the Rchools.
C. Howard Lloyd was paid
SSOO on account of his work to date
on the Shimmell building.
