STEEL HEAD’S PAY
IS STILL SECRET
Grace Explains' Bethlehem
Company Gives Him Both
Bonus and Salary.
8? the Associated Press.
"VOTINGS? TOWN. Ohio., July 18
The sum Eugene C. Grace receive* as
president of the Bethlehem Steel Cor
poration remained a secret today de
spite an all-day court inquiry by at
torneys seeking to enjoin Bethlehem*
merger with the Youngstown Sheet &
Tube Co.
Grace startled the court room when
he testified late yesterday that his
stipulated salary is but $12,000 an
nually after Sheet & Tube counsel had
thwarted efforts to learn his total com
pensation through the Bethlehem bonus
sjrstem.
Big Figures Quoted.
Attorneys for the Cyrus S. Eaton
interest*, fighting the merger on the
ground that it was fraudulently nego
tiated upon term* unfair to Sheet &
TMbe stockholders, contend that Grace
receives a “large and unheard of” com
pensation somewhere between $1,000,000
and $1,600,000 annually. This was
fraudulently concealed from direct ore
of Sheet & Tube when they were asked
to approve the merger, the Eaton in
terests charge.
Luther Day of Cleveland, chief of the
•nti-merger counsel, doggedly kept
questioning Grace about his bonus since
April 30, the day the consolidation was
to have taken effect had not the op
position gone into court. Grace said
his bonus since then was determined
upon ”1 1 2 per cents” but answered that
he didn't know when Day asked “l’i
per cent of what?”
Graoe promised to find out what his
bonus was for the last three months.
Judge Limits Questions.
Previously Common Pleas Judge
David G. Jenkins ruled that Grace
would not have to tell what agreement
he had with Bethlehem prior to the
meeting of Sheet & Tube directors last
March when they decided upon the
consolidation.
Counsel for the steel companies argued
that Grace’s compensation was im
matrial inasmuch as the merger pro- j
position of four shares of Bethlehem for
three of Sheet & Tube was based solely j
upon earnings. Judge Jenkins upheld
the defense on this point after the
question had been debated most of the
day, but said the opposition might ask
what provision was made for Grace
after the merger was to have token ef
fect.

Dies in Paris, After
Years of Poverty
By the Associated Prcsi.
PARIS. July 18. —Lieut. Gen.

Wednesday he died in a public
hospital here after years of pov

an invoice clerk.
He was an aide-de-camp and

iCHINESE OFFICIAL
ADDRESSES LIONS
International Peace Foster
ed by Such Clubs, Consul
Declares.
By tbs Associated Press.
DENVER, Colo., July 18— China
added lto greetings to those of Canada
before the fourteenth annual conven
tion of the International Association
of Lions Clubs today, when Henry K.
i Chang, Chinese consul general, San
Francisco, told the service club men
that organizations such as theirs were
doing much to foster international
peace.
W. M. Martin, judge of the Court of
Appeals in the Province of Saskatche
wan,- yesterday brought a similar mes
sage to the Lions.
Mr. Chang, son of H. E. Chang Ying-
Tang. former Chinese Minister to the
United States, brought to the conven
tion a description of current events in
China and their bearing on the course
of the country's political and economic
history.
"The revolution of 1911 was super
ficial,” he said, "but it did loose certain
forces which are still having far-reach
ing effect on all phases of our national
life. Little wonder that unrest and dis
turbances have followed. China has
compressed into a space of 20 years
more basic changes than all the changes
j that took plaoe during the preceding 10
centuries. The country has made tre

WORMS AND FROGS AID SCIENCE
IN GAUGING ALCOHOL STRENGTH
Grain Product Found Three Times More
Stimulating as a Rub Than Wood, and
Less Than Propyl, Butyl and Amyl.
By Ihe Associated Press.
COLD SPRINGS HARBOR, N. Y.,
July 18— If men respond to alcohol like
frogs, barnacles and planaria (worms),
then grain alcohol should be about
three times more stimulating as a rub
than wood alcohol.
By the same scale of measurement
grain alcohol is less stimulating than
several of its lesser known brothers,
propyl, butyl and amyl, all of them
primary alcohol. Propyl is nine times
as stimulating as wood, butyl 27 and
amyl 81 times.
These comparisons come from dis
covery of a method to measure ac
curately the chemical stimulation of
alcohol and other compounds reported
to the biological laboratory here by Dr.
W. H. Cole, professor of physiology and
biochemistry at Rutgers University.
His experiments were upon frogs, bar
nacles and planaria. He devised a tank
In which they could be kept under a
constant flow of pure water along with
means of recording normal rates of
motion, such as the jumping of the
frog.
Precise Record Kept.
He tainted the water with various
alcohols, obtaining a precise record of
the amounts necessary to stimulate the
animals into more than normal activ
ity. In addition to showing effects
somewhat similar to of si rub
down, the animals may have been ex
hibiting also the equivalents of Intoxi
cation. Dr. Cole believes his expert-

! starts in any part of the body touched
by alcohol or other compounds.
When contact is made, the scientist
believes, the alcohol molecules spread
about under control of definite forces,
Instead of scattering haphazard.
Energies Are Released.
As the molecules spread, their en
ergies are released. This release may
be likened to billions of tiny hammers
striking the contact surface. These
i “blows” set off processes deeper in the
tissues, which, in turn, reach the nerves
and so produce the stimulation.

LONDON, July 18.—The ,royal gal

today when the Interparliamentary
Union reassembled for Its fifth sitting ,
to consider securty problems and the :
Kellogg pact.
Twenty speakers were scheduled for ,
today's session, including Viscount j
Inouye and Representative Morton D i
Hull of Chicago.
The Chicagoan, In his report, pointed [
out that without undertaking to re- *
! define neutrality or prove any plan for j
its modification it "seemed reasonable t
to assume that it would be examined
widely in the direction of a co-opera
tive effort for the discouragement of
war."
“If there is a war anywhere,” he
said, "it affects all nations. It follows j
that all nations have a common con- :
cern in its prevention. A suggestion !
that a conference be held for consider- |
atlon and adjustment of security prob- ,
lems seems to point the way to Inter- !
esttng and desirable developments
Community of interest should lead to j
community of action.”
