Negotiation or \ treaty which would prevent future rars was urged, in conjunction with n agreement to limit naVies. by E! ert H. Gary, chairman or the board of he United States Steel Corporation, i an address today before the Ameri an Iron and Steel Institute, of which je Is president. He also belittled the Ingestion that arniarticnt limitation puld reduce the manufacture of steel. *ying the thought was unworthy of , yen a passing notice. Business was j toproved, he said, but there must be j grther adjustments. "With an agreement for the limita- j )on of capital ships," he said, "it i fould not seem to be practicable to ] lop with less than a final treaty that I Hll prevent future wars. In addition a what is contemplated by the limita Jon of armament, there should, with Iher things, be an understanding that I any International differences arose, o resort to military force should be bntemplated until after a conference I tod full discussion by ail nations now | nrtlclpating in the deliberations at j Washington. | "President Harding and the four se ated, able and experienced repre kntatives of this country, will energet Wily and persistently strive for agree ?ent They realize their constituents . re fervidly supporting them in their ampaign for peace and limitation of rms. and all this is true of each of le other nations." He asserted that the international tTangement to bo concluded must bver every kind of armament here ifore or hereafter discovered. "The benefits which would be de lved by reason of all the nations liv-j \g under peaceful conditions as com-1 ared with the military conflicts, are' pyond calculation," he said. "If leans for the firm establishment and J laintenaace of peace can bo found | nd generally assented to, it will mark j n epoch of the greatest business pros-1 erlty, as well as the largest measure j T happiness that the world has ever litnesscd We should be thankful that' lis conference has been called." Failu-e Unthinkable. Failure of the conference, he said, tas unthinkable. An adverse outcome] tould be intolerable, and those re-j ponslble for it would bo repudiated Qd everlastingly condemned. "No claim for personal or individual | dvantage not based on the principles; f right and justjeo in the opinion or i le majority would be enterta'ned." j e added. He briefly dismissed the ; ? pggtstton that l^ss steel would be jtnufae'ured as a result of armament bltatlon. "In the first place," he said, "the amount of decrease. if any. which is' doubtful. would he small, and even, though they might be large, no sane ( | and right-spirited person would con-1 j aider pecuniary Interests as of any [importance when discussing national | or international welfare." Business Some Improved. Mr. Gary said it scented to bo gen [orally conceded that business cotidi-' Iftons throughout the country for the [last, six months had been steadily, if [slowly, growing better. The volume of [business In the steel industry bad more [than doubted in the last ninety days, I he said, though profits had been little i or nothing, due to high costs and low 'prices. Of the country's business out look. be said: 1 "Even though we have now passed i the mos; critical period In our recov ery, I still think we would not be war ranted in concluding we have arrived at the point where we can certainly ?predict the exact time when there will | be a return to a normal financial, com mercial aud industrial basis for the world's economic structure has been terribly shaken by adverse winds dur-? ing the last few years. There must he i further adjustments. "The delay In complete restoration of a sound and satisfactory economic development in this country Is largely due to high costs high coats of living, i high costs of production and transpor I tation. and high costs of owning and ! earning money or its equivalent."
