WALZER I nitrd Press Financial Editor NEW YORK, Jan. 9.—The stock market reopened today after a j two-day shutdown with prices l mostly up small fractions and vol- i ume relatively active. The trend was irregular in the early trading. Automobile shares gave a belated demonstration for the New York automobile show now in progress.; Auburn jumped to 55, up 1 H and others of the group made fractional gains. Railroad shares were firm, although Union Pacific eased a fraction. Small gains were noted in New York Central, Lackawanna, Chesapeake <V Ohio, Pennsylvania and Louisville A; Nashville. Steel news was not encouraging. The magazine steel reported an increase in the output rate of 15 to 16 per cent. “Unquestionably,” it added, “ignorance of the program of the incoming administration at Washington is holding back business, possibly to a greater extent than the uncertainty over the outcome of election did last fall.” Foreign Exchange (Bv Abbott, Hoppin & Cos.) —Jan. 9 Open.

Market News The stock tabic on the financial page of a newspaper is s'cconci only to the tape of the stock ticker in its market importance, it is declared in the current number of "Stock Market Technique," edited by Richard D. Wyckoff. •■That table." says Wyckoff, •“contains real information; inside information—the opening, highest, lowest and closing prices. It records both history and prophecy. When you know how to analyze it you will discard all the other text, tables and whatnot, for it will tell you the only thing worth knowing about the stock market—what is likely to happen. "No one can do as much for ycru as you can do for yourself bv extracting all there is to be found in the record of the transactions. Between the lines and the columns there flows evidence of the law of supply and demand—the dominating factor in the stock market—that always tells the truth; that that always tells the truth; changes.

For Efficiency’s Sake DURING the last sixteen years, the - •owth in number of commissions —boards in Indiana has been so great that it would not be difficult to bcliev that almost every other man and woman in the state belongs to some governmental group j or other. Each succeeding session of the leglsMure evidently sought to outdo its predecessor in number of boards created. In fact, to the patient observer, I it appears as if there has been some sort of contest under way, until now there exist sixty-five boards and c"— ~" ; s<i ons everything from building - ''in at the Chicago World's Fair to enrolling stallions. The legislature would do well to take stock of this ever-growing evil and go about reducing the number, if not for economy, then for efficiency. Here is a case in point. There are in existence six state correctional institutions, ranging from the Michigan City state penitentiary down to various schools and reformatories. Under the present system there are twenty-four members of these boards. a a a Each group meets approximately one day a month, drowsily listens to the reading of a report by the institution head and then passes on pardons and paroles. None is in sufficiently close touch with the institution to know actual conditions and there can be no com--1 pansons in the management of the

places, because the attention of each board is concentrated on only one spot. The obvious thing to do to assure efficiency, they tell me. would be for the legislature to abolish the six boards for six institutions and set j up one board of, say, five members, 1 to supervise all and devote some time to each place. Twelve hospitals and sanatoriums are supported by state levies with boards totaling fifty-two members. ; These sanatoriums and hospitals 1 include care of the feeble-minded, the tubercular, the blind, and the | deaf. There is no adequate centralized control, because the state board of charities means absolutely nothing so far as strict supervision goes, and in the past, according to this reporter's experience, it has been in the main a whitewashing body. It is proposed that the twelve boards be abolished in the interset of efficiency and one set up in its place to supervise these various institutions carefully. Then there are the four major educational institutions of the state, Indiana and Purdue universities. .Terre Haute Normal and Ball State Teachers’ college, each with its own board and each jealous of the others. One full-time board ol trustees could manage the . roup. It is obvious that it would be necessary to pay full-time salaries to such board, but these never would run as high as the total of per diems and expenses paid under the present stystem. One way to economize would be through efficiei„cy in government.

Contract Bridge
BY W. E. M’KENNEY Secretary, American Bridrc League IT has been predicted with the new grand slam bonuses that we will see an epidemic of grand slam bidding. This might be true in rubber bridge, but the new duplicate code announced by the American Bridge league and the new pivot and progressive code which will be announced Feb. 1, 1933, both provide ror the old grand slam bonuses. At duplicate and party bridge a grand slam not vulnerable is worth 1,000, a vulnerable grand slam is still worth 1,500, while at rubber bridge the new laws provide 1,500 for a not vulnerable grand slam 2,250 for a vulnerable grand slam. In duplicate tournament play, there are few grand slams bid, as the better player feels that he has little to gain by bidding a grand slam, especially if it is in any way doubtful. Generally there is no play to a a small slam, you will be far above average. Grand slam bidding forces partners to make proper and accurate deductions. The following hand, played in the recent national championship tournament, produced some interesting bidding to arrive at the grand slam.

However when holding a hand that contains a major and a minor, and there is any doubt about the ten sure tricks, it is better to open with a one bid. There are a kit of missing high cards out in this hand any of which will give North sufficient strength to reply with a bid of one no (rump and even though this shows weakness it will give South a chance to show his second suit. Lit us start the bidding with one spade. North has a fair hand, but due to the fact that he holds a singleton spade, he can not very well reply with two no trump. A bid of two no trump should show an honor in partner's suit. Without that honor you should have extra side strength, which this hand lacks. After the one no trump, South should then bid three clubs —a jump forcing response. North's bid would be four clubs —he has sufficient strength to go to five clubs and possibly six, due to the strong bidding of his partner, out ne can get additional information with his bid of four clubs. South’s next bid should be four Hearts— this shows control of the heart suit and, in spite of all the weakness bids of his partner, it invites a slam if the hands fit. North now can iason the hand out very well. He knows that they should have no losing spades—at least partner's strong bidding can not be made without absolute control of three suits therefore, partner should have the ace of spades. If South had even two small diamonds, he would not invite the slam, so it looks as though he might have the ace and a small heart and jne small diamond. In that case, North can take care of those two losers. His king of clubs makes the club suit solid, so North must not bid five diamonds, to show the ace of diamonds, but should go right into seven clubs. The grand slam can be made without even taking the spade finesse. Generally if you bid for and make grand slam—it is all in the bidding, and should not be bid if there is any doubt of its being made.

Bomb Blasts Renew Fears in Illinois Miners War
By United Pre** TAYLORVILLE. 111., Jan. 9.—The boom of dynamite bombs today brought fears of reprisals in Christian county’s bloody coal mines feud. The bombs, which damaged property but injured no one, apparently were directed at members of the Progressive miners faction. Twenty-four hours after the bombings, however, the sheriff’s office had no information of any counter attacks. Three men died in the warfare in the last week.

FIRM CA3LES AID BULLS IN WHEAT MART Corn and Oats Unsettled in Dull Session: Pressure Lacking. BY HAROLD F.. RAINVILLE United Press Staff Correspondent CHIC/IGO. Jan. 9. Wheat opened % to •% cent higher on the board of trade today but other grains were unsettled around the previous close. Strong cables, with Liverpool higher than due on a good demand and light North American shipments, and firmness in stocks kept the buying element bullish. There was little pressure although trading was light. Corn was % cent lower to % cent higher in slack trade. Oats was also % cent lower to % cent higher, while rye was unchanged to % cent higher and provisions were steady. Despite the sharp upturn of last week, sentiment remains bullish. The top was 6 cents above the previous week. It was the first broadening in speculative activity the trade has witnessed in a long time. Less attention is being paid the allotment plan as it is realized this measure is a long way from becoming a law. The current strength in cash wheat and flour and the holding attitude on the part of the farmers is a basic supporting factor. Liverpool recovered from an opening dip and was % to % cent higher at midafternoon. Corn has strengthened correspondingly with the action in wheat. The producers still are withholding their grain from the market and cash handlers see no indications of increased receipts. A better demand for cash oats from cereal interests has tended to strengthen futures.
