CONGRESSMEN ARE
OFF ON VACATION
. By J. Bart Campbell .
Washington. Aug. 25. (L N. S.) To
the refrain of "The Bills They Left Be
hind Them," congress scattered to the
traditional four winds today.
In spite of a determined fight by the
dry forces, the house passed the joint
resolution -providing for a. recess by a
vote of 146 to 129.
Only the members of the senate finance
committee were left behind to wrestle
with tax and tariff bills during the
30-day recess which began officially
when the senate threw up its hands and
quit just before midnight with the Wil
lis-Campbell anti-beer bill still to be
acted upon.
Among other measures which congress
left behind were the administration bill
to extend credits to the railroads, the
Penrose bill to grant blanket authority
to the secretary of the treasury to fund
the $11,000,000,000 indebtedness of for
eign governments to the United States,
the permanent tariff bill and the revenue
bill.
The senate finance committee will con
tinue hearings on the tariff bill during
the recess, but may sidetrack this meas
ure for the revenue bill with a view toJ
reporting the latter to the senate and
securing its immediate passage when
congress reconvenes.

By Phil S. Hanna,
Special Correspondent of The Journal
Detroit, Aug. 25. Although there have
been some trade recessions in this terri
tory, me motor inaustry continued on
the up trend and business progress in
general has been maintained.
Bank clearings here for the last week
were 3105,000,000 as compared with
$141,000,000 for the corresponding week
in 1920, but In view of the lowered scale
of prices, this is taken to indicate a de
cided increase in comparative volume of
business. Deposits in clearing house
banks are up $8,000,000 and borrowings
from the federal reserve are at the low
est point since April, 1919.
The difficulty of most manufacturers,
however, lies not in securing money but
n getting orders for goods. A few fac
tones outside the motor field find the
margin between cost and sales price so
narrow as to be almost unnoticeable.
One lumber manufacturer declared to
day, ."It is getting so my customers
treat me like an approaching mendi
cani. AuiomoDiie manufacturing con
tinues the bright spot in the situation
and activity has been accelerated this
week by price cuts on Hudson. Essex
and King cars. The Pere Marquette
railroad handled 1785 carloads of auto
mobiles from Detroit and Flint In the
last two weeks, which compares favor
ably with peak times shipments.

OUCE GETTING
READY FOR DRIVE
By J. Flaal
fSpsrial Correspondent of The Journal)
St. Louis. Aug. 25. Commerce here Is
settling down with complacence and con
fidence for a steady drive over the last
lap of the re-adjustment period. Not
withstanding that manufacture and con
struction remain inert, the situation in
general commerce U better now than at
any time since the reaction began, and
there is every reason for certainty that
betterment will be progressive for the
remainder of the year.
The policy of retail merchants of buy
ing only as much merchandise as they
need but of buying frequently and
chooaing a variety of goods, has showed
that trade will be comparatively steady
with the sales stretched out over sev
eral months. It is forecast that these
sales ultimately will total a fairly large
volume.
Some improvement has been noted in
manufacturing but tv far it has been
light. Grains are selling easily in this
section. Quantities of cotton from the
Southeast and Southwest are being sold
abroad and arrangements for financing
increased shipments are being concluded.
Diversified agriculture has been both
pronouncedly successful and encourag
ing to fanners who are liquidating their
loans or preparing to do so within 60 or
90 days.

(Sierial Cotreafwadetrt of The Journal)
Cleveland. Aug. 15. Resumption of
the buying of steel material In the larg
est quantities for many months ia the
outstanding feature of the industrial sit
uation here. This buying Is confined
largely to raw materials and ha been
followed cloaely by stiffening prices. The
increase In prices of pig iron from Sit to
$; a ton krtd.of besemer to 116 valley,
ia attributed to the fact that Northern
Ohio manufacturer have disposed of
their stocks' in warehouses and buying
needs will have to be filled by direct
production tonnage in many Instances.
Farmers, long out of the market, are
buying wire, sheets and other needed
steel products. There has been a slight
reactionary tendency in the rubber in
dustry. The Goodyear Tire company will
lay off 900 employes this week and the
Goodrich company production has been
reduced from 16.000 to 10,000 tires a day.
Firestone continues to produce 21.000
Urea daily and the Goodyear company
Is averaging 25.000.
The' mounting of a new automobile
spot light enables it to be manipulated
from within a closed car.

Troy. N. Y.. Aug. 25. That old stand
by of prewar days, the 15 cent etiff
collar, may soon be back on the market
if the price war between collar manu
facturers here continues. The president

Deer Are Plentiful
In Santiam Forest
Deer are more plentiful In. the Santiam
national forest this year than for a
great many years, according to Klmer
Williams, predatory animal inspector of
the United States biological survey, who
has Just returned from there. This Is
said to be due to the fact that so many
of the predatory animals have been
J cleaned out of Unit section.
