NEW YORK, May 25. Mr. Gary, president of the United States Steel Corporation, addressing the Iron and Steel Instituts reported that the business outlook in the United. States was good. All the Corporation's furnaces and mills were operating at full capacity, which was only limited by lack of sufficient working

The former Liberal statesman's acceptance of the new office is subject to the doctor's approval in forces view of a recent attack of typhoid, but it is expected he will be able to take up the post after con- valescence.

Meanwhile Mr. Baldwin will pilot the budget through the House of Commons.

It will be recalled that Mr. McKenna's unex- pected recommendation to City men during the election to support the Boaar Law Government evoked a caustic speech from Mr. Lloyd George.

It is strongly rumoured that the seat in the House of Commons whence he retired after his de feat in the 1918 election will be found for Mr, McKenna in the City of London in succession to Sir F. G. Banbury who is likely to be elevated to

the peerage.
