BITTERNESS LAIDTO SLAYING. OF LINCOLN

If Lincoln had not been assassinated, the bittérness of reconstruction would have been avoided, Philip Zoercher, Indiana Tax Board chairman, told the Optimist Club yesterday. Speaking on “Lincoln, the Christian,” he pointed out that during the Civil War Lincoln called the nation to prayer seven times.

“The greatest calamity to the |.

South after the war was the assas-

2 | sination of Lincoln. If he had lived

there would not have been the long struggle of reconstruction.”

The fleet of ships will cost $2,043,000, Boeing officials said. Powered by motors that will develop 4600 horsepower, the planes will attain a speed of 242 miles an hour.

H eavy Porkers Hold Gains of 5 to 30 Cents

Medium and heavyweight hogs which failed to catch up with the full extent of advances elsewhere yesterday were the ones adjusted today in a 5 to 30-cent higher trade on weights above 260

pounds. Lighter weights sold largely steady. Meager Saturday receipts

and a continuance of the broad outs

let prevailing all week, however, played no small part in the further upturn todayTop held to $9.85 for best 200-to« 220-1b. averages. Not enough packe ing sows were on hand to accurately test values, but considered salable upward to $8.75 or better after today’s rise on heavy hogs. Compared with the close last week, hogs scaling above 160 pounds show advances of unevenly 50 cents to $1.10, with heavyweight offerings up most. Weights from 160 pounds down are unchanged. Packing sows ended with gains of 75 cents to $1. Today's cattle trade was on a nominally steady basis. Compared with the close last week, slaughter steers, yearlings and heifers are 25 to 50 cents higher, weighty heifers showing the maximum gain. Some beef cows are up 25 to 50 cents; but bulk of the medium and good cows are around 25 cents higher. .Cutfer and common beef cows and all bulls worked strong to 26¢ higher, under a broad outlet. Sev= eral loads of good to choice 1021 to 1168-pound slaughter steers made the week’s top $9, a few loads ranging from $8.50 to $8.65, with bulk steers from $6.75 to $8.25. Best heifers available made $7.90, a few loads from $7.60 to $7.90, with bulk comprising. kinds from $6.50 to $7.50. Good cows bulked at $6 to $6.50, common and medium sorts from $525 to $5.75 and cutter grades mostly $4.25 to $5.25. Top on weighty sausage bulls was $6.75, with the closing limit on vealers, $11.50. Stockers and feeders usual= ly turned at $6.50 to $7.50. No sheep or lambs were unloaded today and trading was considered nominally unchanged. Compared with the close last week, fat lambs are 75¢ to'85c higher, with other slaughter classes unevenly ‘50c and more up. The week’s practical top of $9.35 was paid Friday for best western lambs, a few strictly choice natives setting an extreme limit of $9.50. At the late improvement, best shorn lambs reached $8.25, fed yearlings $8, while slaughter ewes are now considered salable upward to $5 for choice handyweights,
