PORKER'MARKET BECOMES STEADY

SEVERAL SHARES BID UP ON N. Y. STOCKMANGE Numerous Traders Converted to Bullish Side of Market.

Average Stock Prices

Average of twenty industrials Wednesday was 171.51, up .45. Average of twenty rails was 135.60, off .03. Average of forty bonds was 97.42, off .14. Bit United Press NEW YORK, May 26.—Buying operations progressed in leading stocks in early dealings on the New York Stock Exchange today. Railroad shares, numerous industrials and specialties were bid up substantially, several reaching new high grouii. Call money renewed at 4Vs per cent. Thursday's impressive rally converted a number of traders to the bull side of the market. This, with the increase in C. & O. and Hocking Valley dividends, resulted in a strong and active opening, with several issues at new highs. C. & O. advariced rapidly to 190, a gain of 4% points. Nickel Plate at 236 was up 4!£ and Western Maryland went to 59%. against its previous high of 58%. Granby and Radio In the industrial list Granby sold at 45, Radio at 49% and General Motors at 196%. Steel opened fractionally lower,- but the "when issued" stock was higher at 124%. While the forward movement was less pronounced as the morning wore on stocks continued to show firmness. -Wabash, of which more than one large road is reported' to be seeking control, was again taken in hand and run up to 72, a gain of 3 points, while Missouri-Kansas-Texas was up 2 to 68%. Abitibi Power made anew high at 95%. Ford Ineffective The statement by the Ford Motor Company that new models were, planned, failed to find reflection in the motor group. General Motors, Overland and Chrysler, the companies which would be most affected by a successful new Ford car, held well around last night’s close. Nash ad-, vanced to 64% on short covering. Hudson sold off on Detroit reports the company was planning to curtail operations to around 25,000 cars in June, compared with an average of 3,7,000 in recent months. TAPI,IN DENIES PURCHASE Did Not Buy Into Pittsburgh Coni; No Merger With Terminal, He Says. Bn United Press NEW Y'ork, May 26.—F. E. Taplin, chairman of the board of Pittsburgh & West Virginia Railway Company today denied that he had bought into the Pittsburgh Coal Company or that he was negotiating with that company to effect a merger with the Pittsburgh Terminal Coal Corporation. “The syndicate which controls Pittsburgh & West Virginia Railway,” he said, spiking another rumor, “has not sold a block of its stock to Pennsylvania Railroad at S2OO a share, as has been rumored. Its controlling block of stocck stil) intact. The only inference that T can draw to account for the rapid rise in Pittsburgh & “West Virginia stock in the past week is that the trunk lines have bought into the road." Legal Notices ns liquidated damages agreed upon for such failure, it being impossible to estimate the amount of damages such failure would occasion to the board. Each proposal shall be in a separate sealed envelope with writing thereon plainly indicating the character of the work to which the bid relates, as. for example “Bid for General Construction. School No. 75.” The right is reserved by the board to reject any or all proposals and to refrain from accepting or rejecting proposals for not more than fifteen days.

M. JC. Bebee, track elevation engineer, called Walter Mayer, a property owner, at Battle Greek. Mich., Wednesday over long distance telephone to ask hint to waive his rights • The hoard is sparing no efforts to push the opening and imjirovement of the street, which is paved on both sides of the elevation.

The board must grant the request of the petition has majority signers. Specifications Same Lingenfelter said if property owners asked for concrete , streets the specifications would remain Hie same as those of Chester C. Oberleas, former engineer, except that the thickness would be eight instead , of seven- inches. The specifications provide for a six-inch base with two inch top, and forty-two pounds of reinforcement per ten-foot square. The mixture provided is one part cement and five find one-half sand and gravel. Berea, a sandstone curbing, is included in the new specifications recommended by Lingenfelter. During Mayor Lew Shank’s administration Berea curbing was the topic of iffuch discussion. William H. Armitage, political general of the Shank regime, was alleged to be favorable to the Berea product, which was not included in specifications before Lingenfelter recently took office.

French aviators. His hosts tried pitifully to smile through the artificial masks which once probably were handsome faces. Filled With Grief Speaking brokenly to the disabled fliers. Lindbergh said: “You had bad luck.” One of the men replied, simply, “You had good luck.” Between them, the youth wli® won and the youth who lost, was stated the unadorned philosophy of men who fly General Gerrard, acting commander of the Invalides, and himself a one-legged veteran, greeted Lindbergh. “I am proud to receive in this building, constructed hy Louis XIV, the representative of anew generation of young Americans who has won our hearts with his charm and simplicity,” he said. Mrs. Archibald Mackay, an American prominent for her aid to the Invalides, conducted Lindbergh on his visit to the institution. He passed among the stricken men. shaking hands with the bed-ridden, many of whom had never moved since the war. With the greatest pleasure he yet has shown in giving souvenirs, Lindbergh signed cards for the veterans. Linrihergh Busy

Lindbergh set out today on another crowded day of high honors—his last and perhaps his busiest in Paris. Tomorrow he will crawl into the cramped cabin of his trans-Atlantic monoplane, circle Paris and wing north to Brussels to pass the time of day with his first king. Today’s program started with a visit hy Lindbergh to Marshal Focli, commander-in-chief of the allied armies in the last year of the war; Marshal Joffre, and the wounded war Luncheon with Foreign Minister Briand at the foreign office. a visit to the tomb of the Un- | known Soldier, a triumphal ride j down th‘ Champs Elysees and the | Rue de Rivoli, and the state recepi tion by municipal oflVcrs at the Hoj tel de Ville were other highlights of | the crowded schedule. Lindbergh did not expect to go to ILe Bourget field. He has infrusted I tc mechanics at the field the task of I putting his plane into shape. * 150,000 Francs Refused Lindbergh wrote Pierre Flandin, president of the Aero Club de France, proposing creation of a fund ■ for thfc relief of French airmen killed while promoting the progress lof aviation. The basis of the fund would be WO.OOO francs offered by ! Mme. Deutsch Dc Ijt Meurthe for a | cup for Lindbergh. “Mme. Deutsch's gift touched me 1 beyond expression,” Lindbergh wrote. “( feel, however, that I would be less worthy of the gift if I did not feel the welcome France has accorded me was sufficient reward for my flight. “One thing dampens my joy. That, is the sad fate of Charles Nungesser. and Francois Coll. Because I understand the French sorrow over the loss of airmen, and because I share that grief, I could not take this ! gift to America.” EMPLOYES HEAR MANAGER POINTS (Continued From Page 1) was cared for through facilities elsewhere.

Fisher, former local resident and backer of the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, had only high praise for the city manager form of municipal government which is advocated for Indianapolis. Only Type for Any City “It Is the only type of government | for any city to consider,” said Fisher. “Certainly we have been credited by men in a position to know with having made t|ie greatest comeback from a disaster in the history of the world. In forty days after this hurricane had passed over Miami and Miami Beach there was very little evidence of the tremendous loss except the foliage.- Within forty hours after the hurricane passed through, the Miami Beach city manager government, in cooperation with our own company and other real estate interests, were working approximately 5,000 men. This would not have been possible under any other form of government than the commissioner manager plan; it was possible because the people as a whole had faith in their governmental officers. “Under the commisson-manager form of government we certainly don’t dig up hundreds of yards of good asphalt pavements and put down pavements which are not ' as good as the ones torn up. as they did In Indianapolis on Indiana Ave. a few years ago.”
