LOCAL PORK PRICES UNEVEN
TONE OF MARKET HIGHLY IMPROVED AS WEEKCLOSES general Motors Heads’ Industrials’ Upward Shove. By Elmer C. Walzer Manager United Press Financial Service NEW YORK, Feb. 12.—The week In the financial community ended with, stocks showing a distinctly better tone and with the old leader back in the harness. General Motors guided industrial issues into higher ground through the session, buying in this premier industrial being based, not on the $8 dividend declaration which had been discounted, but on the report of January sales which were considerably higher than expected. All financial markets closed Saturday, Lincoln’s birthday. High grade rails also came to the frcnt, replacing the recent rise in the low-priced issues of this class. Wheeling & Lake Erie came out on the tape a few times during tha fission, showing a depreciation of I points for the day, while the deferred lost 3V&, New Haven, New York Central, Atchison and othehigh grade dividend paying carrier shares advanced. Chesapeake & Ohio experienced particularly good buying demand which sent it up 3% j points. Harvesters Harvester stocks also moved higher, International Harvester scoring a gain of 5% points and Case Thrashing Machine 214 points. Another group was heard from—the whisky stocks —with National Distillers making a sensational rise of 4% points for the common and 6Vi j for the preferred. A measure is said I to be in the making in a congressional committee for the manufacture of spirits for medicinal purposes. This would benefit National Distillers. since the company is said to own large stocks of grain alcohol and whisky. Coty, Collins and Aikman, Independent Steel shares, Loose-Wiles and several other special issues were sharply higher. j Curb Active Losses were by no means absent, I but gains far outnumbered them. I New York Canners first preferred fell off 13 points and Electric Refrigeration 2%. Trading for the day was on an active scale, total transactions runnnig over two million shares. The curb market also experienced an active session, with oils and industrials rising sharply, while utilities were under moderate pressure, j continued to decline on the Exchange in quiet trading. This week’s new bond offering totaled $200,701,000, compared with $297,280,000 last week, a record for a single week. The total since the first of the year in new financing now runs over a million dollars. Cotton prices were about steady at the close, while wheat held firm. Fc--eign exchange was steady, the usual fireworks furnished by pesetas and Norwegian kroner being absent. Dutch guilders Were strong.

WALL STREET INTERESTED C. & O. Center of Nickel Plate Merger Is Belief. tin United Press NEW YORK, Feb. 12.—Wall Street today viewed the application of the Chesapeake & Ohio railroad to the Interstate Commerce Commission for authox-ity to acquire control of the Erie and Pere Marquette Railroads as indicating that the Chesapeake & Ohio would be the nucleus of the proposed Nickel Plate system. It has been inferred that the system in its final evolution will be of interlocking ownership. Each component road will" possess shares of one or all of the others of the system. In this way opposition of almost any nature by any of the units of the system would be automatically overcome, financiers believed. Objection was made by the Interstate Commerce Commission last March that the proposed Nickel Plate merger would not take care of the minority stockholders’ rights. The new plan is developed to overcome this objection.

SPEAKER ASSAILS PRIVATE UTILITIES Offers Figures Shewing Low City-Owned Rates. The people of Indiana should have an appeal from the decisions of the public service commission through a refenduni vote and municipalities shhould be allowed to own and operate their own public utilities', dedared Jap Jones of Martinsville, former State representative, before the Indianapolis Federation of Community* Civic Clubs meeting at the Chamber of Commerce Friday night. "Municipal owned utilities have proved to be a positive method of relief from privately-owned utilities, who are systematically robbing the people,” Jones said. He pointed out that Martinsville is paying $1,75 for a thousand cubic fee tof gas, the company being owned privately, compared to the 30-cent rate at Maysville, Ky., a municipally owned utlity. Among Indiana cities owning their own light and power utilities, Lo gansport with a 6-cent rate, built a $250,000 city hall from the profits; Bluffton's 5,000 consumers built a $125,000 community house from profits derived from a 7-eent rate. Anderson used profits from their 6cent rate to reduce its own taxes: and Richmond built a $300,000 addition to its light plant from profits from a 6-cent rate, Jones said. “Privately owned light and power Utilities are charging from 10 to 15 cents all over the Satte,” Jones continued.

I never, never want to play with things like that because I know 'tis likely they will bite.” The Clowny spoke right up and said, “No alligator do I dread. I only ran to give you all a scare.” The other Tinies laughed out loud to think how very, very proud wee Clowny was. They knew he had a sense of humor rare. Just then they heard a nearby sound like something tramping on the ground. “Oh, gee,” wailed Clowny suddenly. “He's coming back, 1 fear.” “Well, what of that?” someone replied. Then Coppy very loudly cried, “Say, if he does I’ll bet my life that you will not be here.” The sound, however, that they j

They looked It o’er from tail to head. “Why, it’s an 03trich,” Scouty said. “It’s acting very proud because its feathers are so grand.” Ah, here was Clowny’s chaftce again. He jumped up from the ground and then he shouted, “I will show you now that I am not afraid. Although it’s something I’ve ne’er ride.” He smoothed the ostrich feathers down until a seat was made. In climbing on he was discreet. The ostrich jumped up to its feet. I guess it sort of wondered just what Clowny had in mind. And then, in just a moment more, off down the beach it quickly tore. Wee Clowny hung on tightly while the others trailed behind. (Copyright, 1927, NEA Service, Inc.) The Tillies get a surprise from an ostrich egg In the next story.
