, ißy Them on .V McKinnon) NEW YORK May 9. —Assuming that the broker;; loans statement 'vill in ail likelihood disclose a reasonable shrinkage for the week, we see no reason to attach too much importance to it. inasnVich as we Anticipate the reserve statement will show a further tightening of he credit structure. The advance in acceptances and a slightly higher time money market, not to mention the abnormally high rate for call money, clearly suggests that there is little hope lor a change in the reserve policy. With additional listings in•creasing in large volume almost every week, it has become more ot a problem as to bow the money strain can be relieved without t ; >e approval of the reserve. Washington also gives u> food for thought in ,tltc opposition shown in the senate to presidential ideas of farm relief, w hich forecasts not only an effective farm legislation at this session but more than this, a conflict of purpose "between congrc and the President that does not auger well for the futures. Recognizing all favorable business conditions, wc still feel that ■any tendency at this time toward higher prices will not meet with success.

BY RICHARD D. M MILLAN II nited Press StafT Correspondent PARIS, May 9.—For the first time m history the populace of this fasci- ! nating civic center is looking to the | police department, no less, for guidance in the delicate matter of kissing. The verdict is expected soon on how long a kiss should be, and how affectionate. The question arose when a certain well-known Paris architect complained to the police against a current play in which the hero embraces the heroine just a bit, the architect and his wife thought, too. long and too animatedly. Whether a kiss on the stage should be as long as a kiss between just ordinary mortals, is what the police are trying to find out. How Long Is Proper Kiss? Asa result of this investigation the populace also will find out how long a kiss between ordinary mor- : tals should be. So far there is no authoritative data on the subject. , and the encyclopedias wash their [ hands of the matter. After the performance of the i play, called “Rolls Royce.” the J architect went to the nearest police j station and told the officer that the [ whole situation was unbearable. I He said that the nature of the kisses which Saturnin Fabre, the hero, administered to Mile. France Ellys entirely were improper, too sentimental and apt to implant improper sentiments in the minds of the younger generation. The police officer, a sensitive soul himself, said he would investigate the matter, especially that part of the complaint about the kisses being too long. "Terrible Situation” He said it was a terrible situation and that he was nonplussed. And when Parisian police officers ; are nonplussed culprits better had j beware. [ The principals of the play. M. ; Fabre and Mile. Ellys, were agog. It was the first time they knew that kisses could be measured for length or temperature. M. Fabre said: i “We have acted the part sincereIly up to now. If we have forgotten ourselves in the role it was because of that. We had no idea anyone could take offense at our manner j of kissing.” Meanwhile. Parisians are Hocking to the theater to see the performance. Births Ernest and Harris, Ku"?ter. 2735 Barth Roy and Sarah Anderson. Methodist hospital. Emmett and Nellie rovler. Methodist : hospital.

WHEAT OPENS WITH STRONG TONE IN PIT Corn and Oais Were Higher in Sympathy: Trading Quiet. Ft" Vnitrd Pass CHICAGO, May 9.—Wheat trading resumed its strong tone at the opening here today as prices advanced in sympathy with the higher Liverpool market. Firm plate offers and investment buying on reports of crop damage in this country brought the reaction abroad. Corn and oats were higher with wheat. At the opening wheat was ’ s to l’s cents higher, corn was up 1 i to 5 i cent and oats was Us to cent higher. Provisions were slightly higher. * Bearish sentiment in wheat appears somewhat abated at present, but. although some traders believe all depressing factors have been discounted at the new low levels, in most quarters the reaction is regarded as only temporary. Weather over the southwest continues favorable and there has been no change in fundamental factors affecting prices. Sentiment in corn is mixed with better cash demand and delayed planting attracting good support, while pit element is inclined to sell on theory that difference between corn and wheat is too narrow for present levels to be maintained. Short covering in oats from, time to time has been offsetting the effect of lower wheat markets and trading rules quiet because of interest attracted to that grain.

MANY ENLISTED IN GOLDEN RULE CLUB
Letter Comes From East. Praising Times for Safety Move. Organization of the Golden Rule ! Safety Club, to promote safe drivj ing. not through regulation and 1 ordinance, but through observing j the simple, elementary rule of "drive as ycu would have others | drive and walk as you would have others walk" is striking a responsive ! chord everywhere. Today's mail to The Indianapolis Times brought letters of approval of the Golden Rule Club from all : points of the compass. "The Golden Rule Safety Club appeals to me,” wrote John Reinman. ! old-time circus man. who now lives at the national home of the Elks at Bedford, Va. f’rahes His Lodge ‘‘We have some heavy traffic here. When I get my card I am going to fry to start a club here. I read the article in The Times on May 4 about the Indianapolis lodge, my lodge, joining in the Golden Rule Safety Club, and I was glad to hear of this step.” Reinman, in a footnote, says that ire was born in Indianapolis in 186! on Washington street between East and New Jersey streets. "Old Captain Sockwell had a grocery store next door. He was the captain of the only stern wheel steamboat that ever plowed the grand old White river.” “Great work.’’ declared Lowell H. Worland of Waldron, asking to be enrolled in the club apd that a sticker be sent him. “Good Stuff,” He Says John A. Bruhn. 2418 Ashland avenue, writes "Good Stuff" at the : bottom of his application, while I Miss Edith Lones, 521 South War- ! man avenue, writes that she has no membership application at hand, but desires to be enrolled in the club. “The Penalty." the two-reel safety picture devised by The Indianapolis Times, will be an added feature on the program at Bair's Uptown theater, Forty-second street and College avenue, today and Friday, where "The Wild Party," is the feature picture. “The Penalty” N will open Friday for a two-day run at the Strand theater, Crawfordsville. FRENZEL !S LAUDED Bankers Voice Sorrow at Death of Financier. The Indianapolis Clearing House Association Wednesday adopted this expression of sorrow unon the death Tuesday of Oscar F. Frenzel, vicepresident of the Merchants National Bank. “When a. man is held in general respect and esteem in the community where he has spent the greater part of his life, and in warm regard by those who are in close association with him, the two facts are in themselves comprehensive testimony to his character and qualities. “Oscar F. Frenzel of Indianapolis, v hose death comes after a long illness, was a man of this type. He was a popular man. having the genial social qualities that attracted others to him and the steadfastness of character that held friends once made. A great worker, who devoted himself to business from sheer love of it. he yet found time for other interests. “He belonged to a number of organizations. prominent, among which were the Indianapolis Maennerenor. which he loved and served, and the Masonic lodge. “Asa banker Mr. Frenzel's counsel was of superior order and ,V occupied a high standing in the banking fraternity in Indianapolis. We do deference to his memory as an excellent citizen with unusual qualifications as a banker and associate. We sorrow that his familiar chair is vacant and extend to his widow and family our fullest sympathy."

CITY WATCHES 2.000 MASONIC KNIGHTS MARCH Sixteen Bands Lead Parade: Jubilee Closes Today With Election. Following Ascension day services at the Masonic Temple a business session of the Grand Commandery was to close the diamond jubilee celebration and conclave of the Knights Templar of Indiana today. The high point of the conclave was the parade Wednesday afternoon when 2,000 Knights Templar and sixteen bands formed a procession that thrilled the thousands who thronged the Monument Circle and lined up along downtown streets. Kalediscopio band uniforms ottered a fine contrast to i lie somber black uniforms and white plumes of the Templars. No street cars or automobiles could interfere with the vision of the bystanders as all traffic was so rerouted that it would not interfere with the line of march and no autos were permitted to be parked along the route. The most beautiful portion of the parade was the aftermath when all of the bands and knights formed a massed group and marched down Meridian street to the Monument Circle to the tune of “Onward Christian Soldiers." Clips were awarded the Ft. Wayne drill team for the best work in the competitive drill preceding the parade. Muncic for being second and Noblesville.
