STOCKS CONTINUE ■GENERAL RECOVERY, BEGUN LAST WEEK Many New High Marks Established by Industrial Leaders. OILS SHOW STRENGTH Several Stocks Sell Four to Six Points Over Last Week’s Prices. The WALL STREET JOURNAL NEW YORK. July 9.—The stock market at the opening today was fairly active and firm, most of the rails opening higher than Saturday’s close, while Studebaker was up fractionally and Steel common unchanged. Sentiment in the street continued good with the spectacle of three days of advancing prices in the closing days of last week. Pan Petroleum sold above 60, the Dest price on the current rally, while the “B” stock rold 5% points above last week's low. First Hour The market continued firm in the .first hour with trading not very active. Several specialties featured the early dealings, notably Schulte Stores which sold above 99, adding over a point to the five-point advance of Saturday. Steel stocks were relatively inactive but firm. Crucible celling four points above the low of -last week while oils were better, especially California Petroleum, due .'it was believed, to expected developments in the industry. Second Hour Trading became more active as the session progressed, due to inside buying in the industrial list, in which many issues showed decided strength. Several new highs on the move were established by such stocks as Studebaker, Corn Products, Baldwin and American Can. Baldwin was the point of most covering when it rallied to 120%, nearly six points above last week’s low. The covering operations of the long short interest in these issues added impetus to the rally. Noon Hour
'' Trading slowed up in the noon hour, but only fractional changes took place in most of the leading issues as the selling pressure usually exerted in such periods of dullness was absent. Delaware & Hudson, among the rails, managed a gain of .3% points following the statement of kVice President Williams that he exW jiected authorization of the regular and other carriers were firm, due in jtome degree to the favorable report issued. Fourth Hour Bears abandoned their eqorts in the eaerly afternoon after Delaware & 1 Hudson, which had been the chief object of attack during the last few days, when most stocks were register- j ing gains, turned suddenly and gained in the face of professional pressure, i Sugar issues, however, did yield, ■ ground, but coppers maintained a firm tone, reflecting the generally better fueling toward the industry’s outlook, j Closing Hour While some of the industrial leaders' had yielded some ground from the day’s high marks before the close, i the day’s rally that had carried some Issues six or seven points above last ; '“Wek’s lows was not entirely lost. The dullness that overtook the market toward noon was hardly broken in the remainder of the session, except for some slight selling of industrial is'sues. Altogether, the street senti- ' ment has shown a divided reversal. Twenty active industrial stocks on "Saturday averaged 89.41, up 76 per cent. Twenty active rails averaged 78.76, up .71 per cent.

WHEAT ALONE IS LOWERAT CLOSE Corn and Oats Mount Steadily During Day’s Trading, By United Financial CHICAGO, July 9.—Grain prices closed irregular on the Chicago Board of Trade today, corn and oats making substantial gains while wheat slumped fractionally. Figures showing the world's visible supply were posted during the day’s trade and showed decreases in wheat, com and oats and a light increase in rye. Wheat prices were held back throughout the day by a drop in Liverpool at the close and generally favorable crop news. Corn prices mounted steadily throughout the day’s session. With low sticks and light receipts, the bullish factor during the morning, the buying was further induced toward the close by the world's visible supply estimate showing even lower stocks than expected. Oats prices were strong, with a good class of local buying. Provisions were lower, chiefly because of the weak hog market. Chicago Grain Table i—July 9 WHEAT— Prev. Open High. Low. Close, close.

CHICAGO, July 9.—Northwestern grain men are advising the trade to watch the Canadian wheat crop. Conditions are said to be so perfect in those fields that any change would be in the way of deterioration. Some traders predicted that with the | Federal Reaerve banks ordered to assist the farmers, the local country banks may be more lenient and grain may be held back. Businees has been resumed at the Com Products Company. Argo. 111., after a twoweek shutdown. Local experts say the com stand is unusually irregular and predict Government estimates will show the crop below the average. A fair volume of export business in wheat reported from the seaboard is about balanced in the big markets b ya slow milling demand. Low prices are being made for flour.

By United .Veirj POCANTIOO HILLS. N. Y„ July 9.—Apparently John D. Rockefeller’s physicians have hit upon a better scheme than did old King David's for conserving his energies in his old age. . At least, so it seemed as the little potentate of the oil world sat Sunday, on his eigjity-fourth birthday, with all the alertness of a man in his prime, listening to a sermon by a young preacher who was a college student last month. When King David grew so aged that coverlets would no longer warm him, and ooen hearth fires sent shivers up his chill spine, the medicine men of Judea, a crafty crew, tried device after device to keep him in a glow’ of warmth. Plan after plan failed. Old “Doc” Has Plan Asa last resort, an old physician was consulted who had been somethiiig of a rounder in his youth, with frequent visits to Babylon and Alexandria. “Let the cold old King sit in the lap of a lovely w'oman." he counseled “If that won’t keep him warm, nothing will." This plan worked, but lt played HARVEST WORKERS STILL IN DEMAND Fitch Promises Applicants Steady Employment, Steady work in the harvest fields for the next five or six weeks was promised to applicants today who called on Professor VV. Q. Fitch of Purdue. now' at the Statehouse conducting a "clearing huose” for men needed in the harvest fields. Professor Fitch said teh most urgent demand for harvest laborers was in Benton and Cass Counties. He sent four men to Fowler early today. "By instructing applicants to move north into new' fields as the w'heat crop is harvested, and then by calling them back to handle the hay harvest and the oats crop, it will be possible for the men to obtain practically steady work for several weeks," he said. Several applicants asked for steady work. Fitch will be at the State board of agriculture Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday afternoon. HEROINE TO BE HONORED Luncheon Is Planned for Woman War Workers.

Rockefeller's doctors have gone the M D sos Judea one better in a perfectly "respectable wmy. They have prescribed no biblical chaise longue for him; instead, they have surrounded him with a group of congenial fellows, men who admire him sincerely and are not averse to tell him so. Coupled with an alert watch on his diet and exercise and constant medical supervision, they expect this plan will keep him warm with life until he reached a hundred. Shakes Neighbor's Hands After the sermon, having placed a $5 bill on the collection plate, the multi millionaire passed freely among his neighbors, shaking hands with most of the hundred or so In the tiny church. Entirely unescorted and unwatched by the apparently mythical bodyguard of stalwarts, the wrinkled, sunbrowned little man—he seems to weigh a trifle less than a hundred—walked down the aisle, passing brand new nickles to the small boys and girls of the congregation His keen eyes blinked as he emerged in the sunlight, then twinkled a greeting to hiR old friends, the camera squad, who beleaguered the church stoop in a formidable semi circle.
