Central West, some producers there questioning whether blast furnace and steel works forces will be ade quate for the scale of operations they consider likely in the fall months. Many more workers are planning to return to Europe and at some blast furnaces a scarcity of common labor is noticed already. Idle men at the gates of steel mills are now scarcely a factor. The demand for oil line pipe is par ticularly good. The Texas Company has been a free buyer and drilling plans of other companies look a year ahead. The Sinclair project to paral lef the present oil line from Okla homa to Texas would mean 150 miles of S-ln. and over 300 miles of 6-ln. pipe. One pipe mill sold up for three months had to refuse a 25.000-ton ; order. June was the best month in the j sheet trade since October. Two mills i that have led in cutting prices now I have a backlog of orders and some thing like an oldtime pressure for j deliveries is coming front the auto | mobile industry.

New York sweltered through the hottest Fourth of July in its history with out a sign of the anurchist bomb plot which had been heralded and against which eluborate preparations had been made by Federal agents, police and State guardsmen. The widespread publicity that at tended the city's plans to guard against further bomb outrages was believed to have been largely re sponsible for the uuietness of (he day which radical quarters had hinted would be given a "red" tinge.

ELKS QUIETLY DID BIT IN WAR Without Publicity and With out Asking Anybody For a Penny Atlantic City, July s.—The Be nevolent and Protective Order of Elks will hold its annual convention at the Hotel Traymore during the week of Jiily 7—a victory and peace convention. While th:s Elks did their bit in the war, both at home and abroad, they kept out of the light of publicity and asked no one for a penny. And they claim that Amer ica's victory is the Elks' victory, for the iirst essential of an Elk is that he is an American through and through. No questions of creed or of political faith are asked. Cath olics, Jews and Protestants are wel come in the order, but the one out standing requisite for a member is that he be 100 per cent. American. When America entered the war the Elks didn't wait to be asked to help; they presented themselVvt in any and all capacities In which they could help. They gave up their clubhouses for the needs of the Government. Tliey helped to sell Liberty Bonds and War Savings Stamps, helped the Bed Cross and the Salvation Army, started the iirst relief committee, huilt the first re construction ho % tal before any of oi boys had been wounded, and 50,000 Elks shouldered rifles and marched to the war, many of them never to return.
