BAILS STABILIZE INDUSTRIALS IN ERRATICTRADING Kelly-Springfield Made Object of Intensive Bear Attack. SOME LEADERS YIELD Action of Norfolk and Western and C. & 0. Hold Wave in Check, The WALL STREET JOURNAL NEW YORK, March 15.—The. weekly mercantile reviews were Inclined to complain about the narrowness of the price movement In most lines and of the continued moderation of buyers in placing orders, but it was evident from their description of unprecedented railway traffic, record structural activity in February and bank clearings running well ahead of the first two months of the year that consump tion is keeping abreast of production. This prospect stirred up activity in representative industrials at the best levels of the week In today's early trading. First Hour Considerable unsettlemeut was created toward the end of the first hour by another sinking spell in IvellySpringfleld, which dropped to 18 Vfe a record low. This weakness reflected apprehension regarding the safety of a dividend on 8 per cent preferred, action on which Is due April 1. It is expected shat the meeting will be postponed until April Tt>, as last year the company reported a deficit. Another stock whose market was depressed by dividend fears wds Coca-Cola, which broke to anew 1924 low at 6.14i on concern aroused by a slight margin over the $7 dividend rate left out of 1923 net profits.
Closing Hour Selling of the Industrials was checked In the early part of the final i hour by the conspicuous strength of ! a number of railroad stocks, Including Norfolk St Western, which were active | at the best levels of the year, and C. A \ 0., which went into anew high ground on the present recovery at 75%. In 39 LEGAL NOTH.

Indeed, the cheap call money rate of 4 per cent ruling over the weekend caused sbme new buying on the part of both traders and investors who expect a resumption of the upward movement of bond next week. Not only have French bonds been aided by the recovery of the franc, but the investment market as a whole seems on a bettor footing as the prospects of peace i.n Europe are much brighter than even a week ago. Sugar bonds seem ready to resume their upward cjimb. Tho recent statements of sugar companies in Cuba have been favorable. The metal bonds have not been especially active. Copper and steel bonds have backed and filled In sympathy with stocks. Several major pieces of railroad financing are being groomed for early offering and will be placed on the market as soon as a more favorable turn appears. , Liberty bonds have not been wanted in any quantities.

WHEAT STRONG IN CHICAGO TRADING Corn and Oats, However, Display Marked Irregularity, By United Financial , CHICAGO, March 15. —Wheat was strong in today’s “trading on the local board. Corn and oats ruled Irregular. Short covering caused wheat to rally following several dips and the close was fractionally higher. Late firmness •in Liverpool also helped local sentiment. The English market was aided by expectations of small world shipments next week and Letter demand for Manitoba and Argentine wheat Further liquidation carried May corn to the lowest price In several weeks. Buying on the dip by shorts, however, stimulated buying sentiment and a slight recovery was scored near the close. July was up % due to unfavorable crop news and September remained dormant. May oats firmed up with an itn 1 rovement in cash demand. July slumped on account of favorable crop news. Provisions were strong and higher with hogs and reports of a decrease In packers' supplies.

Grain Briefs CHICAGO. March 15.—The break in wheat at this time, if it should extend far enough will prove a boon to the American farmer, a leading dealer said. Low prices would dlscounage extensive planting in spring wheat. United States markets have been on an artificial basis so long that legitimate business has been restricted. The present decline must continue until values reach an Import basis. It was generally expressed in the pit. While improvement In corn continues small and receipts dispolnting there is a demand from the east and cash grain handlers find It difficult to reduce discounts at which the actual grain is selling under the futures. Missouri wheat showed 75 per cent condition computed with 82 last year. The plant made no growth and not even green throughout most of the state. Eastern and southern 1 s8 have been heavy sellers of wheat the last few days.

Shippers were actice from the start of trading and were joined in their activity by local killers, who followed up the advafice. Scarcely 3,500 head were on sale, including 675 carry-overs from ‘Friday’s market* and a speedy clearance was effected at $7.70 fur all weights and classes, vompared with $7.60, Friday’s predominating price. A top of $7.75 was paid for a few bunches, compared with Friday’s top of $7.70 for sim liar kinds. Both sows and pigs were strong to 25 cents higher, sows selling down from $6.75 and pigs down from $7, though choice kinds were able to command -a slight premium.

HARVARD STUDENTS CALCULATE UPKEEP Graduate School Figures It Costs Each $4,05 an Hour, CAMBRIDGE, Mass., March 15. Some of the students in the Harvard graduate school of business administration have figured out that their instruction costs them each $4.05 per cJassroom-hour. The figure is based upon the cost of tuition, living expenses in Cambridge, and the value of a student's time if he were in outside employment, estimated at S3O per week. The students undertook to compile these figures after it had been announced by the dean's office that the cost of operating the business school is being met solely from its income like any sound business. The only income of the business school Is the tuition of its students, which with present enrollment is about $240,000 per year. It is the opinion of some of the faculty that the knowledge on the part of the students that their instruction is costing each one of them $4.05 an hour results in a serious determination toward their work not otherwise obtainable.
TRAFFIC IN FIGHT PICTURES BARED (Continued From Page 1) turea should be shown before some veterans association first?” ‘‘That was up to the bureau.” Before Soldier Organizations "But the plan was to show before some such organization as the Veterans Bureau or the American Legion, be arrested and fined, and then they could go ahead and exhibit them?” "I had nothing to do with those arrangements.” "What was your experience In New York State?” "I showed the pictures at the Disabled Soldier’s Hospital at Staten Island.” "Why.” "Because they wanted It.” "You and Rickard were arreeted and fined SI,OOO each?” "Yes.” "Didn’t the district attorney tell you. to wait a couple of weeks until public opinion had subsided?” "He suggested If we were going to show them to wait a while.” “Who was it made the suggestion? was it Hayward himself?” “I don't remember.” "Did Hayward hear It?” "He must have.” Shown in Twenty-Two States "You know the picture was shown in twenty-two or twenty-three States?” "Around twenty-two or twenty-five States.” In a statement at his offloe Friday night, Daugherty struck back savagely at Roxie Stinson, charging her with trying to blackmail him or his friends. ‘ She is a disappointed woman who blames me because her divorced husband did not make her the sole legates under his will; an angry woman because the courts have decided against her in litigation over the testate of her divorced husband; a malicious woman because the friends of the attorney general have brushed aside and disregarded all her tentative effort to capitalize her silence,” said Daugherty. Denies All Charges He denied all her charges in detail. Daugherty also made public a list of twenty-two .convictions he said the Department of Justice had obtaied for illegal showing of the Dempsey-Car-pentier fight pictures which figured in the testimony of both Mrs. Stinson and Gaston Means.
FACTS ARE STILL VAQUE Teapot Dome Probers Seek Truth In Fall's Financial Dealing*. By PAUL R. MALLON, United Press Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON, March 15.—Sticking doggedly to Its task of cleaning up the history of Albert B. Fall’s financial dealings with oil magnates, the Senate oil Investigating committee will make another effort next week to get the facts of these matters: 1. Whether Harry F. Sinclair gave Fall more than $25,000, which J. W. Zevely, Sinclair’s man, has testified Fall was given. 2. Whether the SIOO,OOO E. L. Doheny testified he gave Fall really went for purchase of Fall’s New Mexico ranch or was part of a fund for a much more important purpose. 3. If Doheny’s SIOO,OOO was paid of a fund, who else contributed to It and how much and just what this fund was used for. Building Permits Washington and Liberty Realty Company boiler. 603 E.
