Dec. 14.—Business news over the week end was almost invariably favorable, particularly regarding Christmas trade, which was reported to be of unprecedented propdrtions in practically every part of the country. This prosperius condition brought in large buying orders from interior points and the general market displayed a buoyant tone today at the opening. Railfoad shares were particularly favored, Rock Island, Missouri Pacific, New York Central, Southern Pacific and various other representative issues displaying activity at the best levels of the year. American Can was the principal of strength in the industrial Hst, moving up fractionally to 259, its best price on the current movement. Traders continued to sell in the late morning, creating considerable irregularity in the general list. Conspicuous strength whicji was displays t by stocks like General Electric, American Can and other issues with influential sponsorship, demonstrated that the principal banking interests were confident of the market's future. General Electric’s further advance to new high on the move at 327, up six net, was accompanied by reports it would distribute another property to its stockholders. American Ice spurted more than three points to anew high for the year at 138%, reflecting the company’s 1925 earnings which are estimated at $25 a share for the common. Local Bank Clearings —Dec. 14— Indianapolis bank clearings for todav amounted to $3,825,000. Petits totaled 56.818.000. NEW YORK CLEARINGS YORIC Dec. 14.—Clearings $581,000.000: balances $132,000,000. y | In the Sugar Market By Thomson & McKinnon NEW YORK. Dec. 14.—Several factors militate against a higher level In the euJblT market. First, we have the prospect a world crop 500.000 tons in excess ■E last year’s record output. Both refiners and retailers have adopted conservative buying policy largely due to the approach of the new year, when inventories receive considerable attention The willingness of growers to accept 2'h cents at this time of the season would indicate the attractive differen.-es between the rlearh.v and distant positions are such as to encourage heavy hedge selling. The technical. position of the futures market at this time is not of the best.

SLICK STREETS BRINGDANGER Adjuster Tells of Liability Insurance Need. Slick streets these wintry days make driving more or less dangerous, says H. A. Shane, adjuster for the Bull Dog Automobile Insurance Association, 406 City Trust Bldg. "Piople who drive cars, certainly should have liability insurance,” he asserts. ‘‘The most careful driver, using every precaution, is sometimes at the mercy of circumstances and weather; snow, rain, the failure of the other fellow to give the proper signal—many things can Intervene. The man who Is wise enough to carry liability insurance can travel with an easier mind, and if an accident does Involve him, he will thank his lucky stars that he was Insured. “So many people recognize this fact thatthey carry limits of well Into the thousands —twenty to thirty, where, in the past, ten thousand was considered a large liability. Then, too, people are taking advantage of the fact that at $30,000 policy can be carried for only $5 more on the year, than a SIO,OOO policy costs. ‘‘This association has the reputation of having been brought into court proceedings in Indiana only three times since 1917, which certainly indicates a willingness to settle claims promptly and fairly,” Shane concluded.
UNION SAVINGS MAKES GAINS It isn’t necessary to go to Florida to be in touch with progressive business conditions and to make decided advance and success. The Union National Savings and Loan Association, 20 W. Ohio St., proves | this, for since getting into its new quarters, business has grown more than ssoo,ooo—and this in less than a year. This association loans money on real estate on first mortgage security, at not more than 50 per cent of the cash value of the property. Its surplus, compared to its assets, jis the largest of any building and | loan association in Indiana, accordj ing to company officials, and its busi- ! ness extends over the entire State, j The association officers say that no investor ever has waited for his dividends when due, nor has be ever waited for the return of his investment when his certificate was presented for redemption. This explains why the business of the association has grown. The association issues two kinds of stock —installment and paid-up; It never has paid less than 6 per cent annual dividends, and lt Is under State banking department supervision. WATER COILS ARE REPAIRED At this time of year when hot water is so important, many calls are coming to Q. J. Sellmeyer, 3313 |K. Tenth St., to repair water coils iin furnaces. Sellmeyer is known to be especially successful In this repair work and he Insist that “no job Is too small and no job Is too large” to receive the best and quickest attention. | Sellmeyer has installed the plumb- ! ing in some of the most beautiful [homes in Indianapolis and while usI ing only the best materials, his charges always are moderate. [ Many of his customers have decided | upon the Areola heating system j which Sellmeyer highly recommends, land have been highly pleased with | the results, from both the standpoint lof and of comfort. The Vecto, which heats four rooms and at an Initial cost of $99 is another heater which has given much satisfaction. There seems to be a constantly growing demand for water softeners, and Sellmeyer has "had no complaints from the ones which he has installed. ‘‘Everything In the plumbing line we attend to and any repair work you have, we can do successfully,” he states.
WILLS CAR HAS GREAT FUTURE Donn Herr, Local Agent, Praises Auto. ifißH 1 H Km ; Bkl ' Don Herr ‘‘The Wills-Salnt Claire automobile has a wonderful future,” asserts Don Herr, owner of a cab company and complete service department at Maryland St. and Kentuckey Ave. “In the little more than sixty days that I have had the agency for this perfectly built Wills-Sainte Claire," he continued, “I have been much impressed with the high rej gard for its merits that numberless persons have expressed to me. The car has exclusive mechanical features, is beautiful and has individuality.” “One important fact that greatly adds to the satisfaction of those who have bought the Wills-Sainte Claire is that we, as distributors for Indianapolis are thoroughly equipped to take care of service for them,” he concluded. Don Herr, a former race driver, trained for six years to become an expert mechanician. Later, Herr won a number of races in various parts of the country. • In 1913, he went into business with the late Howdy Wilcox, and finally realized his dream by owning a cab company and complete service department of his own.
