Another robust I uprush in the Wabash common added spice to dealings in the railroad list, but the principal activity again converged on industrial shares. General Asphalt, International Combustion, Mack Truck, General Motors, Republic Iron and Steel and various other representative issues reached the best levels of the forward movement and their strength imparted buoyant tone to the whole industrial list. Public utilities were stimulated by favorable reports submitted ’to the Senate wfcy the Federal Trade Commission .khich absolved the utility industry from the suspicion of monopoly, pointing out that neither General Electric or- any other company had preponderance of control.

Bu United Press CHICAGO, Feb. 26.—News trom Washington that the Government restriction on the amount of grain each trader is allowed to trade in daily has been rescinded, together with the trade freed of the uncertainty which has materially reduced trading in futures of late, as well as in cash grain, caused speculative interest to increase, with sentiment more favovable to the buying side on the breaks. Wheat opened %c to %c higher than the previous close on the Chicago Board of Trade today. Corn opened %c to %c higher than the previous close. Level of corn prices appears to depend largely on the action of the country shipper. Should he forward corn to terminal markets in excessive volume, the trend will be downward and declines may go much farther than any previously noted, because stocks at accumulating points are heavy and room is getting scarce. Oats opened %c to %c higher than yesterday’s close. There has been an improvement in the class of buying. but prices are expected to follow other grains. Provisions opened unchanged.

IThe statement said: the Legislature of 1921 enacted a law providing for alternative forms of government .for cities desiring to adopt the same it did so in good faith and in the belief that such a law was in the interest of better municipal government. “Senate bill No. 187, now ready for third reading in the House, absolutely nullifies the effectiveness of our city manager law by providing that such newly adopted city manager form of government shall not take effect/ until the expiration of the term of the present Incumbent in office. In other words, the final passage of S. B. No. 187 by the House of Representatives would remove the only check or deterrent that now exists tending to provent municipal executives from conducting their administrations contrary to the best public interest and in some Instances In open defiance of expressed public opinion. “The undersigned citizens of Indianapolis would hesitate to believe that the members of the House of Representatives, after a full knowledge of the facts and understanding the pernicious effects of S. B. No. 187, would care to grant to any municipal executive such carte blanche authority to conduct the administration of a city’s affairs without regard to the public welfare. “Public office is not a private possession to be considered as purchased with campaign funds and arbitrarily retained in direct violation of the city manager law after the same has been adopted. Public office is a public trust and should be so held by every public official whether elected or appointed to such office. Nowhere in our entire governmental system is there even an implied right for any public official to perpetuate a maladministration upon the people in violation of the letter and intent of the law as it is now written. “The welfare of tjie citizens of Indiana residing in our cities and the interest of good government should be far above the personal welfare of a few municipal executives who may have brought public condemnation upon their heads by their own acts and who are now asking this Legislature to maintain them in office against the will of a majority of the citizens of their respective communities. “Senate Bill No. 187 should be decisively defeated in the interest of good government, common honesty

STIFFER CALL MONEY RATE CURTAILS TRADE Much Irregularity in Prices —President’s Veto of Farm Relief Bill Has No Effect.

By Elinor C. Walzer Manager United Prcsa Financial Service NEW YORK, Feb. 26.—Stift'er call money rates curtailed trading Friday on the New York Stock Ex change, but volume of business continued over the 2,000,000 mark. DEARTH’S FATE ■ WITHCOiIITTEE (Continued From Page 1) quire a two-thirds vote of the House. I% would also, he said, necessitate Irving notice upon Judge Dearth, who would have ten days In which to present a defense. This course, he pointed out, would carry the time for such a reply beyond the time of adjournment of the House. While the law provides for an extension of time for the Senate to try any such charges, it does not permit the House to continue for such a purpose without a call for an extra session. The Other Course The other course, said Chairman Harris was a resolution of impeachment to be passed by a two-thirds vote of the House, and sent to the Senate as a resolution of impeachment, requiring also a two-thirds vote there, after a hearing. The article in the Post-Democrat to which Judge Dearth took excepj tion was read to the committee. It was a letter printed anonymously, but now known to have been written by dell Maple, a manufacturer of Muncie, who asournes full responsibility. Aftei* it has been read, Fabius Guin, a member of the committee declared, “I can not understand why any judge would go and do a thing such • as has been charged on an article like this.” Representative John W. Scott, a Republican of Gary, who introduced the petitions of Muncie citizens declared that he would press for acMon at this session. “I do not know Judge Dearth. I know nothing about Dale and ain not interested in either. I ant interested In the Constitution of this State and the bill of rights,” said Seott. "Reputable citizens of Muncie have brought me an account of the incident in Muncie. I do not believe that any judge, who rounds up newsboys on the street, takes away their papers and terrorizes them by threats of punishment without a trial deserves a place on any bench in Indiana. I do not believe that any judge should bo permitted to arbitrarily suppress n newspaper which he says slanders him. We are here making laws. "The laws are to enforced In courts. There kre laws covering slander, and nowhere do I find that a judge is given (lie power to forcibly seize the properly of any one. especially of boys. "Freedom of the press is of vastly more importance than personal quarrels, even if the judge be party to that quarrel. "A judge who goes outside the authority of law to obtain any end, even that of redress for his personal wrongs. If he lias any, is an enemy to the law itself. “I am convinced that this Legislature has the authority and the legal right to act and am just as firmly convinced that It must act.”

Prices generally were irregular with some special issues displaying unusual strength. President Coolidge's veto of the McNary-Haugen bill had no effect whatsoever on the stock exchange, but in the cotton market it stimulated buying on the premise that acreage would be diminished without this legislation, and the trading would now be guided by th; law of supply and demand. Wheat and other grains advanced immediately after the veto was announced and closed the day substantially higher. This farm relief measure had been considered unconstitutional anyhow, and predictions that it would be vetoed had been so general that any adverse effect which the President's action might have had was thoroughly discounted. Odd Loto General Motors was a feature bf activity in the market, rising to a new high of 162"* and closing the day at 162, a gain of 2 points net. U. S. Steel, on the other hand, dropped off in activity and sank below the level achieved by the Premier Motor issue, closing at 161, up %. Du Pont, General Electric, Hudson Motors and some of the equipment shares were strong. Baldwin receded further. International Combustion reached anew high level at 59%, up 5%. and National Lead was at its year's high at 178%, closing at 175%, up 1% for the day. Texas Land Trust old stock appeared on the ticker today in light odd lot transactions, the price rising S2OO to $2,000. The new stock gained 2% points to 20%. NOT WORRIED Renewing at 4 per cent the call money rate advanced to 4% per cent around noon. Jumping to 5 per cent shortly after 2 o’clock. Banks called loans to the extent of $30,000,000 to meet month-end requirements. At the 5 per cent rate, according to the Stock Exchange announcement after the close of the market, money was freely offered. Wall Street does not seem to be worried regarding the credit situation and the general censensus is that demanded loans will be back to 4 per cent next week. Trading in bonds was considerably more active today, featured by further heavy dealings In United States Government issues. A single transaction in treasury 3?is involved $1,000,000. Flat 7s were again in heavy demand at new high prices. Utilities stood out in the trading on the curb, several issues of this group moving up nearly 2 points. Foreign exchange rates were steady and without feature.

BOYS TOLD NOT TO PATCHARGE (Continued From Tage 1) St., mother of Claude and Clydo Coatley. Claude and Clyde are two-of the lunclo lads who were selling the Muncie Post-Democrat last Saturday when Judgo Dearth, who did not like somo of the things the paper said about him, directed police to suppress the Issue. A La Mussolini With the efficiency of a Mussolini the papers were taken away from the boys—papers which many of them had invested a dollar or two In and expected to make a dollar cr two on—and the boys warned that they might get in jail If they sold any more. But it happened that Claude and Clyde Coatley had not paid for their papers and they wondered what to do about it when they were tnken away from them and they had no way of raising the money to meet the bill. The mother says the boys told her that the judgo told them not to pay Mrs. Dale. “No Judge can tell my boys to keep money that doesn't belong to them," declared Mrs. Coatley. Bread Winner Afraid “Mother, I'm afraid to sell papers any more,” small “Bill” Frierson, son of Mrs. William Frierson, 1217 Penn St., told his mother. "Bill” Is one of a family of nine children, is a needed bread winner, but “he's scared out," explained Mrs. Frierson. “You see, he and others of the boys connect the word ‘probation’ with jail or juvenile court, and arc afraid the judge can put them there.” Small Klsel Blake, son of Mr. and Mrs. Earl Blake, 1000 S. Elm St., is another “newsie'’ who has been too frightened to continue his news selling. The word “probation" has also struck terror to his heart. Highly Indignant are the parents of Claude and Clyde Coatley, 1415 E. First St. “No Judge can tell my boys to keep money thot don't belong to them,” declared Coatley. . Ills sons claim that the judge told them not to give their money from the papers to Mrs. Dale, wife of the editor of the Post-Dispatch. Mr. and Mrs. Marion Nicholson. 1114 W. Fourteenth St., whose son Wayne had his pnpers taken from him, were also very indignant. Mrs. Anna Scruggs, A and Fourth St.* said: “My boy George Davis has been selling papers for several years. I think ho deserved better treatment than to have his papers taken from him.” . One on flip Judge But little Bob Bennington, 1123 W. Eleventh St., “put one over” on the judge and his deputies. “1 ran with my paiiers and an officer stayed right behind me. lie was going to take my papers, I’m sure, but he didn't catch me. Then a man in an auto honked to me to bring him a paper. (And I ran across the street to take it. Tlitn the officer almost got me, but I dodged him,” declares Bob. John Mlllspaugh, son of Mrs. C. A. Mlllspaugh. 336 E. Jackson St., hasn't yet recovered from his fright when between twenty-five and thirty paiiers were taken from him “after I had paid good money for them, too,” exclaimed John, ruefully. John Ranes Schweitzer, 605 W. Ninth St., has indignant parents, who resented Judgo Dearth’s orders •to take John's papers from him, and John still smarts from the indignity of a blow In the sacs when a policeman hit him. “I was Just tellln’ how a policeman threatened me,” explains John, “when Patrolman Ira Pittinger said ’That's a lie’ and slapped me hard in tho fa.” Bernard Reisleman, 905 S. Brady St.; Charles Hawk, son of Mr. and Mrs. Carl Hawk, 306 E. Ninth St., and small Steve Carrigg, 91$ S. Grant St., whose father has been 111 with rheumatism for a long time, and who has been a small bread winner, are other boys whose papers were confiscated by the czar-like order of Judge Dearth.

MILAN', Italy—“ Moral credit” in the new world is sought by “New Ttaly,” through Col. Francesco De Pinedo’s flight to tho Americas, according to the paper, Popolo Italia. It recalls the ease with which Germany obtained financial credit in the United States after the Dirigible ZR-2, now the Los Angeles, flew from Hamburg to New York in 1924. SANTIAGO,. Chile Nicaragua has offered to place hgr independence in the hands of the United States through President Diaz’s proposed treaty giving the latter country control over the finances and armed forces of the former, the newspaper Mereurlo comments editorially. The United States would act without important benefits in the beginning and would scatter Jealousy in Central and South America, the editorial says. MEXICO ClTY—Mexico has all her cards on the table in the oil anti land law dispute with the United States, and any impartial study of the situation would be satisfactory to her, the secretary for foreign relations said in response to Senator Borah’s proposal that a congressional committee conduct an inquiry into United States disputes In LatlnAmerlca.
