New York, Nov. 20.—^^Gharles M.
Schv.'ab, president of the Bethlehem
Steel Coi’poratiian, who returned from
London today, declined to go into de
tails as to bis mission abroad, saying
merely that his company had a num
ber of large contracts in force in Eu
rope itnd that his p.resence was nec
essary.. He denied reports that the
Bethlehem Stieel Corporation has con
tracted to build twenty submarines^
. for Great Britain, Mr. Schwab gave
was he said was the first optimistic
statement on business xhat had come,
fro mhim in thre^ years.
*‘I believe we' aria neariiig the turn*
ing point for .a .full return of confi

WILSON AND THE NEGROES.
President Wilson would have spared
himself the annoyance of a loss of
equinamity if he had refused to hear
the delegation which wished to protest
against the segregation of negro em
ployes of the government at Washing
ton. He easily could have replied to
the reo.uest for an audience that the
matter was one of department and
bureau administration in which he did
not intend to interfere. Then the de-
pai'tinent heads would have Jjad to
do the stuttering and it would have
been less important.
By giving- his opinions officially,
even if noi ^.ublicly, Mi*. Wilson put
the head of the government in ihe
position of denying the principles of
the government and his situation was
awkwainJ and not pieasant.

Burlington is adding to its enter

of its machiiiery would not lead one
to believe* liiat the war. or anything
else had hurt bu^^iness here. The lat
est addition to the town’s, business is
the Piedmont Box & Lumber Co.,
which will furnish the 30,000 or more
shipping cases used annually to crate
the manufactured products of Ala
mance County. This new concern will
be motoi* driven.
The Kini' Cotton Mill, which has
Just started, is equipped entirely with
new machine* y and ^ rnakin^ carded
soft hosiery yarns. /Hie hosiery niills
of the town furnish a-ready .market
for most of the product of this mill
which is also motor, driven,.having la-
dividual motoj’s for its machinery.
