OIL STOCKS UP ON PRODUCTION DIP

Brisk Demand for Various Creates Buoyant Tone. Average Stock Prices Average price of twenty industrial stocks Wednesday was 120.00. up .48 Average price of twenty rails was 100.48. up 1.05 , Bu United Press NEW YORK, Feb. s.—Stocks opened with a vigor reminiscent of December when the violent postelection demonstrations were in lull swing. A brisk demand for various issues gave the market a buoyant tone. Oils were especially favored owing to the decrease of 49,900 barrels in the daily average domestic production reported by the American Petroleum Institute, which was followed advanced prices in gasoline. Pan-American went into new high for the present bull market at 75. General Petroleum was at 49%. Continued strength in the • main body of stocks in the late morning, with further gains in principal industrials, gave indications that the market was breaking into a resumption of gain advance. Even if the upswing does not become aggressive again until next month, sufficient buying power has recently been displayed, practically to preclude a possibility of inlporsetbacks. Local Bank Clearings Bank dealings Thursday were $3,904,000. Bank debits amounted to $3,661,000. WHEAT CARRIES GRAINSLOWER Spirited Selling Causes Sharp Setback.

' • •' V ' . - • | - r - - • . . Woman in Prison Twenty-One Years for Murder of Husband Finds Outside World Is Different Now

Once in Death House, Sees Another Springtime of Life Ahead,

By NEA Service Sr jT. LOUIS, Feb. 6.—“lt was winter for mi there in prison, but I knew, through all those terrible years, another springtime would come.” Aggie Myers, longest term woman convict in America, thus sums up her thoughts and experiences, after twenty-one years in the Missouri State Penitentiary for the murder of her husband. Twenty-one years of confinement —shut off from the world —with only memories of a happy girlhood and memories of her fatal mistake to keep her company. Now Aggie, at 42,. has passed again into the open places of freedom, paroled as a farewell act of retiring Governor Arthur M. Hyde. But it is a different world than the one which Aggie left twentyone years ago. On all sides conditions are changed. Her old friends are gone; the places she used to visit are there no more. Once in Death House And she finds herself reaching out aimlessly to gather anew the tangled threads of her existence. Aggie went to prison for killing her husband while the “other man” held him in bed. For a year she sat in the death house, having been sentenced to die on the gallows. Then her sentence was commuted to life imprisonment. “My soul was filled With horror I during my first few years in prison,” Aggie says. “Later I became resigned, realizing I would have to face the long road with a happier mind. “Memories—l believe it was my memories that kept me from going mad. It was the memory of other days and loved ones I had known that enabled me to see beyond the prison walls, to give me solace In hours of trial.” With Sister Now Aggie has come back here to live with a sister, carrying a plant which had brightened her prison cell. “Down there my little cellroom became my home,” Aggie explains. “And I loved to keep it clean. Once in a while there were flowers and I had this potted plint which 1 kept green and fragn nt. . “I am looking forvard to the time the plant will bloom again, for it will mean the springtime of my dreams have come again—to bring warmth after twenty-one years of winter.”

DECISION IS NEAR ON ORIENTAL ST. / Tumultuous Hearing Held on Proposed Opening, Decision on opening or closing of Oriental St. in connection with track elevation probably will be made by the board of works within a few days. A crowd that jammed the lower floor of city hall attended the hearing Wednesday. Chamber of Commerce and Ford Motor Company representatives said the expense of keeping the street open would result In the Ford plant leaving Indianapolis. This was characterized as a “bluff” by opposition speakers. The climax came when Gustav G. Schmidt, member of the city plan commission, said that he had not checked night traffic at the Oriental St. crossing for fear of “hold-up men or bootleggers.” Swarming about him in the corridor after the meeting residents of the neighborhood demanded retraction. , Schmidt apologized. Bandits Get S3OO Bu Times Speciel ELWOOD, Ind., Feb. s.—Police today investigated the report of M. Ballenger, fur buyer of Alexandria, who said three unmasked bandits held him up Wednesday near here and robbed him of S3OO.
