Treasury 4%s at 107.00 Trade Reviews Say CHICAGO, Nov. 14.—Despite the lateness of the season, 439 of the principal softwood Aills shipped 5 per cent more than they cut during the week ended Oct. 31, and new bookings amounted to 99 per cent of the cut. Continuance of demand, says the American Lumberman, Chicago ,is due to building activity, the volume of which, from the national viewpoint, is likely to be well maintained throughout the winter. Takings by Northwest States during fall have been below expectations, hut the South is a heavy consumer, though the rains that have forced heavy curtailment of hardwood production have held back full development of rural consumption of softwoods. The larger southern pine mills during th§ week shipped 8.12 per cent more than they produced, and had orders for 12.15 per cent more, though their total shipments for the first forty-four weeks of the year have amounted to 99 per cent of their cut. Operations of many of the smaller pine mills has had to be discontinued owing to heavy rains. West coast mills during the week shipped 3 per cent more than they cut, but orders dropped to 16 per cent below output. During the first forty-four weeks of this year, however, these mills shipped 4 per cent more than they cut. Some buyers expect that increased production will bring a weaker market, but mill stocks aro low and yards have so reduced holdings that they may he expected In the market earlier than after a year of normal buying. There is a fair cargo movement to mnndthe Atlantic seaboard and to California, hut the domestic is taking second place to the foreign cargo demand, both Japan and Australia being in the coast market more heavily. Persistent heavy rains make southern harwood logging impossible and threaten further curtailment of hardwood manufacture. Flooring and trim makers are buying large quantities, furniture makers are taking increasing quantities, and even automobile factories show some tendency •to buy for future needs. Brisk trade in northern hardwoods has given their prices a very firm tone. Local Wagon Wheat Indianapolis mill* and drain elevators nm payinr SI.OO for No. 2 red wheat. Other trades on their merits.

Bu United Press CHICAGO, Nov. 14. Grains went through a profitable short session on the Board of Trade today. Under leaderhip of wheat, gains were scored in all pits. A feature was reaching of highest prices in several weeks for December wheat. Bull news was overwhelming in the wheat pit. It created brisk general buying and In final hours prevented recessions in week-end evening up sales. The advance reflected higher cables and bullish news from the southern hemisphere. Corn eased off fractionally in late profit selling. Strength in the leading cereal prevented total loss of the day’s profits. News carried no special import. Oats advanced in sympathy with other grains. Advances in provisions were due to short covering. Chicago Grain Table || —Nor. 14— fep Bu United Press WHEAT— Prey. Open. High.

Bv Times Bnrrial WASHINGTON, Nov. 18.—Most of the so-called “real beer” flooding the markets in the large cities Is “shot” beer, according to James E. Jones, who has superseded Roy A. Haynes as active commander of the prohibition forces. While there are breweries cheating in Pennsylvania and other States, the number of breweries who are violating the law by making more than one-half of one per cent beer, is not as large as folks think, Jones says. “The beer is given a *klck’ after it reaches the restaurant or buffet where it is placed on sale,” says Jones. “This is done by taking the bung, or stopper, out of the keg and injecting alcohol into the contents. The alcohol is injected with a syringe. Then the barrel is turned over and rolled around in order to mix thoronghly.” A DESSERT FOR CHILDREN Boiled rice shaped into forms, crowned with fruit, and served with sugar and milk, will make a pleasing and nutritious dessert for the children.

MARRIAGE VOW IS LASTING IN CLARK COUNTY Figures on Indiana Weddings and Divorces Given After Survey. Bu Times Special WASHINGTON, Nov. 14.—T0 get married for keeps, move to Clark County. The ratio of divorces to marriages is lower there than anywhere else in Indiana, according to a State survey just completed by the United States Chamber of Commerce. The Federal Chamber inspected both 1924 and 8923 figures. In 1924 Clark County celebrated 3,216 marriages and only seventythree divorces: in 1923. 3.309 marriages and fifty-six divorces. A few comparisons will indicate how unusual those figures are. In Marion Marion County, for example, in 1924, had 4.992 marriages and 1,299 divorces, 4,841 and 1,400. Ylgo County in 1924 had 1.256 marriages and 419 divorces, in 1923, 1,502 and 561. Vanderhurg County in 1924 had 1,120 marriages and 426 divorces; In 1923, 1,406 and 426. Probably the worst divorce record of all Is held by Clinton Coutny, which had only 244 marriages last year, but the same number of divorces as Clerk County, seventythree. Figures for the entire State showed a 11.4 per cent decrease in marriages from 1923 to 1924, and a 2.6 per cent decrease In divorces. The State celebrated 36.308 marriages during 1924 and 7,212 divorces. Union County held the bottom of the list with only thirty-seven marriages and seven divorces. Other Counties A few other county figures for 1924 marriages and divorces, respectively. follow: Hendricks, 167 and 22. Boone, 168 and 41. Hamilton, 210 and 48. Madison, 790 and ,253.

‘HOW COME?’ TO GREET DUVALL (Continued From Page 1) corporation counsel, then removed him and later named him Democratic member of the park board. Orblson was said to have received a tremendous ovation. The roofs of Tomlinson Hall and the adjoining buildings recalled days of feudalism. Klansmen paced back and forth on the alert to prevent eaverdropping. There were watcher* at the corners and doors and windows were locked. To enter, one had to give a pass word, a grip and present a ticket. No women were permitted to attend. A bobbed-haired lass, wearing leggings, sought in vain to pass the Market St. door. A colored boy, bearing a message, also was refused admission. Included In the audience were prominent citizens. There was Claude S. McCoy, East Side Boosters’ Club president, who was mentioned for the board of works as a reward for his faithful accompaniment of Duvall every night of the campaign. - McCoy snld the meeting was “Great! Harmonious!” He did not say whether he will land finally In the Duvall lottery, hut Klansmen expressed the opinion there will he another sweeping shift in the line-up In favor of the hooded order. Arthur R. McGee, first named inspector of police and then ousted in favor of Sergt Walter White, left the gathering with smiles on his face. Chauncey C. Manning, former inspector of detectives, another disappointed possibility for chief of police, and M. N. Bebee, a candidate for city engineer, who actually received reappointment as assistant city engineer, were also there. Indiana's lawmakers also were represented at the gathering. Charles M. Clark and William P. Hinkle, both Representatives from Marlon County in the 1925 Legislature, were among those present. Discussion of an interview with Duvall is said to be planned for the next Klan meeting Friday night in a secret place. MORE ARE APPOINTED Mayor Eloct Switches Two Previously Named. Dr. E. E. Padgett, president, Dr. W. E. Mendenhall, Dr. Arthur E. Guedel, and Dr. Frederick E. Jackson have been named on the city health board by Mayor-elect John L. Duvall. It is understood Dr. Herman G. Morgan, secretary, will be retained Other appointments are: Dr. Richard A. Poole, city hospital superintendent; A. W. Brayton Jr., landscape architect for park board; Alva J. Rucker, corporation counsel to replace Charles J. Orblson, previously named, and Sergt. Walter White, former Inspector, to replace Arthur McGee, previously appointed police inspector. Orblson and McGee, Klan leaders, were named earlier in the week. Orblson was named on the park board, and McGee will be taken care of elsewhere, it Is said. Like thp park board, the law provides one health board member be replaced each year. Duvall contently anticipates the resignation of present members. Removal of present park hoard members was protested In a resolution adopted by Indianapolis League of Women Voters. Mrs. Edna Christian, president, will natty* a committee to confer with Duvafi.

KIWANIS CLUB BRINGS MARINE BAND JO CITY U. S. Marine Band to Give Two Concerts at Tabernacle. Tho United States Marine Band, one of the great military musical organizations, whloh will give concerts at Cadle Tabernacle, afternoon and evening, Tuesday, Nov. 17, under tho auspices of the Ktwanis Club, has been mistakenly com pared to some of the subsidized musical organizations for which European cities are famous. While its men are well compensated from the Government Treasury and aro secure In their positions, they do not constitute a subsidized assemblage of talent In the European eenso. The band Is a part of the Marine Corps, a well defined element of the military system with its duties and responsibilities clearly Indicated apart from any appeal to popular audiences. Concert tours, such as have been provided for through a number of years by the sanction of the Secretary of the Navy and the President himself, are exceptional incidents and aro made possible only by a special leave of absence. Appearance before tho public throughout the country aro matters of pleasure, but not of duty as specifically provided for In the establishment of the band. The Marine Band personnel ts Independent of Influence. Anyone desiring to become a recruit can get a hearing. If he can qualify as a musician and gives a good account of himself as a man of moral responsibility he is acceptable, and no amount of recommendation from national statesmen or local officials would enhance his prospects. % He is there on his merits and he must go forward on them without hope of help or fear of hindrance by outside interference. INDUSTRIES IN RUSSIA REACH PRE-WAR PEAK Lack of Capital to Build New Factories Is Great Handicap. Bu United Press MOSCOW, Nov. 16—This has proved a boom year for the Russian industries and agriculture. The Industries, which last year turned out only aboert forty per cent of the pro war output ave jumped ahead and already reached seventy per cent of pre-war production. Even at this increased rate of production they cannot satisfy the demand of the country for goods; and it is only lack of capital to build and equip new plants which prevents the industries from attaining and even surpassing the pre-war levels of production. The Russian harvest this year Is by far tho best which the country has enjoyed at any time since the Revolution. The total yield of the grain crop is estimated at 2,460,000,000 bushels, ns against a yield of 1,650,000,000 bushels last year, when the drought in the Lower Volga provinces and in the Ukraine constituted a serious ha.r to agricultural progress. In view of the anticipated harvest lt seems certain that Russia, will export several million tons of grain this year. FARM BUREAU TO MEET Program for Federation’s Seventh Annual Convention Given. The program of the sovemth annual convention Os the Indiana Farm Bureau Federation, Nov. 23 and 24 at the Severln was announced today. Principal speakers will be W. IT. Settle, federation president.
