Aver.'po price of twenty rails for Tuesday was 112.48. up .17. Si/ T nitcd Press NEW YORK, Jan. 12.—Selling pressure was lifted from the general list in the early trading today and some recovery was the mani body of stocks although it was mostly of a fractional character. Overnight confirmation of yesterday’s dispatchers that W. C. Durant’s . injuries were not serious helped along the rally in General Motors which gained .■ point to 121% and in other issues in which Durant was popularly supposed to have large holdings. Texas Pacific Land continued to perform sensationally, jumping 14 points on top of its 41 points the previous day. . Selling showed a marked tendency |>o dry up on further price recessions Dn the late morning. This indication of improvement in the general list’s technical health was followed by resumption of buying operations around rioon. It only took half a point rally in Steel, which rebounded to 136, to Induce brisk advances in other industrial leaders. Nash scored a remarkable gain, soaring to 495, up 30%, and the highest price on record. Allied Chemical also received record territory, spurting 2% to 120% while General Electric also bettered its previous top, running up 5% to 347. Expectation of capital readjustment continued to furnish motive power behind General Electric’s rise. Local Bank Clearings —Jan, 12 — Indianapolis bank clearings for today amounted to 54,354,000.

Across the Desk With Busy Men Harvester Company Allows $1 Bu. tor Corn on Implement Sales.

By Rader Wingef <<|. .I ANY farmers already have |yl made -inquiries about the plan of Lhe International Harvester Company of America, whereby they can exchange their corn at $1 a bushel for farm implements,” says R. C. Foster, assistant manager of the local branch of that company. Under the present proposition the farmers can purchase machinery at the prevailing prices for immediate delivery and pay the bill with corn, valued at $1 a bushel. Number two corn will be acepted as the standard of trade and will be delivered by the farmer to the elevator in May, Jun? or July. The price for number two corn at Chicago at the' present time is around 80 cents a bushel. If the price is the same when the farmer delivers his corn to the elevator, the Harvester company will stand the loss. However, if prices are above $1 a bushel, the farmer can pay for the machinery in cash. The plan was inaffurated by the company as a medium to restore the economic confidence of the farmer, according to Foster. At the same time the price of corn on the local exchange will have a tendency to swing upward as a result of the Increased value placed on the product, it is thought.

| ALES of lumber have been I maintained at an unusually l- . high level over the holidays according to the American Lumberman of Chicago. Already there are evidences of a fresh interest in the market as the new year is entered and it is expected that buying for spring trade will start soon. The southern pine mills ended the year with their total production both sold and shipped. During the last week of 1925, they booked orders 8 per cent more than their cut. Southern demand continues the market's best feature. Transit cars in the northern markets are not so plentiful. The manufacturers are holding their prices firmly. Some predict advances. Douglas fir mills produced about 75 per cent of their “normal” cut during the week ended Dec. 28. Their shipments exceeded this amount by 34 per cent and their bookings were 25 per cent ahead of it. The holiday shut-down was not as large as was expected. Many mills found continued operations necessary to meet demands and postponed repairs until this month. REDUCTION of southern hardwoods declined to 45 per J cent of normal during -the week ended Dec. 26. The milk! shipped 38 per cent more than they cut and took orders for 27 per cent more. During the same week northern mills took orders for 13 per cent more than their cut and shipped 22 per cent more. DANCE TO BE HKIjD Bast Side Club will hold a dance tonight at the P. H. C.

Bit United Press CHICAGO, Jan. 12.—Grains went into a sinking spell at the opening of the Chicago Board of TraOu today. Weakness developed in wheat and was in response to sharply lower cables. The depression spread rapidly to other grains. Reduced pressure checked the downturn. Liquidation of long wheat was resumed at the opening. The lower cables and good accumulations brought out offers from those who believed their position still untenable. Long liquidation and the break in wheat dropped corn. Scattered commission house demand was unable to absorb offers. Oats' followed other grains. Buying by commission bouses strengthened provisions.

CHANGES MADE IN DEPARTMENT MAY HALT QUIZ Chiefs Have Resigned or Been Transferred in Revenue Bureau. - 7’ime* Washington Bureau. 13i2 New York Avenue. WASHINGTON, Jan. 12.—Rapid changes in Internal Revenue Department personnel may hamper any additional investigation of that department which Congress may authorize. Since Senator Couzens, -Michigan, began his investigation about a year ago, one deputy commissioner and four departmetnal fchiefs have resigned office or been transferred from Washington to the field. The list includes: John G. Bright, deputy commissioner in charge of the income tax unit, resigned. L. T. Lohmann, head of the consolidated returns audit division, and \V. N. Thayer, head of the oil engineering section, have resigned. S. M. Greenidge, chief engineer, has been transferred to San Antonio and John Keenan, head of the amortization engineering section, transferred to Pittsburgh. All of these units and sections figured nl testimony taken by the Couzens committee in 1925. The testimony, recently released in Congress, indicated that the Internal Revenue Department had from 1922 -to 1925 refunded something like $1,500,000,000 in taxes to large tax payers. The United States Steel Corporation got about $21,000,000 in refunds; the Gulf Oil Company, about $4,000,000; the Aluminum Company of America, about $2,000,000: the Standard Oil Company of California, about $3,000,000, and so forth. Secretary of the Treasury Mellon is chief owner of the Aluminum Company and has been largely interested In the Gulf Oil Company. Senator Couzens alleges that many of the refunds were, in effect, frauds on the Government. Testimony shows that in many cases lowsalaried employes in the various units were allowed to make decisions Involvlng'millions of dollars.

Alonzo Yates, pastor at the Presbyterian church that Francis attended at one time in Indiana-” “Francis tells me that he joined that church and attended Sunday school regularly while at the home of his foster parents near New Washington, Ind. Francis showed particular interest in the parable of the Good Samaritan, whose spirit he recognized as analagous with his present experience. ‘Everybody has been so good to me,’ Francis says. He never gets over the wonder of ‘really having a mother, and I am going back to her.’ ” Separated From Mother Francis was separated from his mother, Mrs. Margeret Murray Long, 434 W.

mHE mention of rope suggests salt water, tarred rigging, ships being anchored or towed or docked, wharves and big loads being hoisted. It, makes us think of the din of the building industry, Alpine climbing, the cowboy swinging Lis lariat, or even a tug-o’-war. Rope is one of the most common and useful articles in man’s existence, but the story of its development into the giant 23-inch cables and hawsews of today, capable of lifting a locomotive or torpedo boat, goes out of sight Into the far past. Man’s earliest cords or lines for fishing, tying animals, etc., were made from fibrous roots, strips of bark, and hide thongs, such as certain savage tribes still use. Ancient Egyptian inscriptions are believed to portray a form of ropemaking. Prior to 1820, rope was made entirely by hand. The picturesque “•rope walks,” or old time hand process factories, established in Boston as early as 1842, were among the earliest Industrial establishments in the United States. Then came machines for twisting handspun yarns into rope stands, and later yam-spinning mechanism was developed. Near the middle of the nineteenth century steam-driven machines were introduced, for making not only all cordage ap inch or more in circumstance—which goes by the general name of rope,—but also all smaller cordage, called string, cord or twine. Cordage is made of various kinds of hemp, or libers known'under the I name of hemp, especially manlla I fiber and its cheaper rival, sisal fiber, now much used in manufacturing binding twine for self-binding reapers, etc. Other materials used are flax, cotton, East Indiana jute, and coir, the fibrous casing or bark of the cocoanut. The raw material arrives at the rope-making plant in great bales. It is loosened, spread in layers, sprinkled with oil and then “heckled,” or mechanically combed to clean and straighten the fibers. The fibers are twined and twisted end to end Into one contin-

uous sliver on machines called "bneakers.” Later the slivers go to the spinning machines. These twist the fiber righi-handed Into yarns, which are mechanically wound onto huge bobbins. From the bobbins are fed to the strand-forming macliino through holes in an iron-face plate, so placed 'that the yarns all converge Into a tube, where they are Compressed into a bundle and twisted into strands by the revolution of a long carriage or flyer. In the "laying” machine the strands again pass through the openings and converge In a central tube, through which they pass to a second set of revolving flyers, and these twist the strands together into rope. Thus rope-mak-ing is a series of twisting processes, and each twist in a direction opposite to that of the preceding twist, so as to make the finished product tight and hard. Ropes are twisted together to form a larger rope, hawser, cable, etc. The cordage Is si-11 frequently covered with pine tar or other tar, to protect it from the effect of moisture. But hemp rop§s have been largely superseded in—many Industries by powerful wire cables, made of copper, iron or steel wires twisted together in much the same way that hemp ropes are made. y HOLCOMB TO SPEAK Junior C. of C.
