By United Press NEW YORK, Jari. 21.—Stock prices advanced to anew high on the current recovery today, reflecting the Improved sentiment aroused by the impressive rally of the preceding session. While gains were small, trading activity increased sharply, giving impetus to the buying movement. Leading shares such as Steel Common, American Telephone, Consolidated Gas and Warner Brothers made fractional gains, while among the more volatile shares, Auburn Auto spurted 1% points. All classes of stocks participated in the forward movement with grain* in some of the rails running to substantial proportions. Atchison ran up more than 2 points to 19214, while New York Central gained 1 to 123. Oils continued their advances of the preceding session, leaders like Mexican Seaboard, Texas Corporation and Phillips attaining new high ground on the recovery. A few issues displayed hesitancy, however, Westlnghouse losing nearly a point at the opening on selling attracted by its sharp run up of the previous sesison. Among the lower priced issues, Commonwealth and Southern and Packard made little progress. Steel common was a leader of the high-grade shares, responding to reports of increased operations, with a gain of % point to 14114. Other steels were setady. National Biscuit was under profittaking attracted by publication of its 1930 annual statement showing a new record profit for the period.

Un request, sent with stamped addressed envelope, Mr. Ripley will furnish proof of anything depicted by him.

Following is the explanation of Ripley’s ‘‘Believe It or Not,” which appeared In Tuesday’s Times: “Ciceri”—On Easter morning, March 30, 1282, the inhabitants of Palermo, Sicily, rose in rebellion against the oppressive rule of Charles of Anjoy and his French cohorts. Every person of French extraction on the island was massacred that day. Armed bands circulated on the streets of Palermo and every passerby was required to pronounce the word “Ciceri, (an Italian word meaning “dried peas). The correct Italian pronunciation of the word is “cheecharee,” but a Frenchman invariably would pronounce it “seesaree.” Eight thousand Frenchmen, who could not pass this test of pronunciation, were slain that day. . This massacre is remembered in history as the “Sicilian vespers,” as the first stroke of the vesper bell in the Church of the Holy Spirit in Palermo was the signal of the uprising. Ice Will Burn During extremely cold weather, a pipe line of the Lone Star Gas Company, Dallas, Tex., froze solid, and the ice taken from it was found to be inflammable. This was due to the high pressure iff the pipe, which caused the moisture and natural gasoline in the gas to emulsify and freeze solid. The lighter liquid hydrocrabons, such as butane, pentane and hexane, can be frozen in the laboratory Into solid ice, which will ignite and burn freely. The East Wind Is Heavier Than a West Wind—A given mass of air in a west wind of fifty miles an hour weighs less than an equal volume of air in an east wind of the same velocity. That is why an east wind always will underrun an adjacent west wind. The difference in w’eight is due to the centrifugal force of the earth’s diurnal motion on its axis, lcnowm as the earth’s rotation, causing a corresponding variation in the intensity of gravitation. Reference: W. J. Humphrey's “Physics of the Air,” Page 99. Thursday “The River that Rests on Sundays.’* DISPLAY SPACE GIVEN C. of C. Lobby Offered for Model Booth-Designing Contest. Use of the lobby of the Indianapolis Chamber of Commerce to display models entered in the miniature booth-designing contest sponsored by the Indianapolis Real Estate Board has been tendered by Ed W.

WHEAT PRICES lIP ON STRONG FOREIGN NEWS Heavy Rains Give Argentina ' and Liverpool Firm Undertone. By United Press CHICAGO* Jan. 21.—Strength in foreign markets gave grains a firm tone on the Board of Trade today. Trade was very light and a few buying orders were sufficient to advance the- prices slightly in the absence of any determined pressure. Wheat was unevenly higher with July leading. Corn went up with wheat. Oats were up a small fraction. At the opening wheat was unchanged to % cent higher with July advancing to % cent; com was % to 3 s cent higher, and oats were % cent up. Provisions were steady and quiet. Argentine Gets Rain Heavy rains in the Argentine gave Liverpool a firm tone and at midafternoon the market was %c to %c higher after being lower early. Buenos Aires was lie higher during the morning. Sentiment is rather mixed. The wheat trade inclines toward the selling side on all bulges. The arrangement whereby the stabilization corporation lends wheat to the millers to be ground into flour for export and later paid bask in new crop grain is viewed as slightly confusing. Considerable of the buying of July recently is believed to have been hedging by millers with such a probability in mind. Corn Demand Weak - Sentiment in corn leans to the bear side. There is no inducement to purchase com or barley now that the Wickersham report has been received. There has been purchasing of oats on the good feeding demand and the holding attitude of the farmers, but liquidation has set in owing to the fact that the market is responding more to condition,* m other grains than to its own fund;** mentals.
