WARNING TO CALLES IS SEEN IN APPEAL Today Brings Showdown Should Mexico Attempt to Seize Oil Properties. By ALBERT W. FOX. With the Mexican crisis over the new mineral laws which threaten to wipe out American oil properties at hand and with American prestige at stake In Nicaragua, President Coolidge yester- cay made an earnest and eloquent appeal through the White House spokesman for support of the press in international matters. It is quite important at. this time, the President believes, that the atti- all that it supports the United States government in its determination to protect the lives and properties of in its readi- ness to maintain peace and good will would be chaos. Mr. Coolidge, it was asserted, relies on the helpfulness of the press in in-, ternational affairs. He trusts that the press will remain an American press, supporting American policies. He fears that foreign governments may mistake criticism here to mean that the Ameri- can people are not unitedly behind their government when it wants some- thing done. And this, according to President Coolidge, would not be a Justified impression for any foreign government to have, because the American people are in reality behind their government in its international policy. President Omits Names. There was no direct mention of either Mexico or Nicaragua in the appeal made at the White House on behalf of the President. But virtually every state- ment made had an indirect and perti- nent bearing on the present critical situations in those two countries. If the White House pronouncement means that President Coolidge is determined to follow the policy of protecting Amer- {can lives and properties in Mexico and standing by the principles of interna- tional law in connection with the threatened confiscation of American rights in Mexico, the appeal of Mr. Coolidge is viewed as highly significant and as a warning to President Calles of Mexico that he will be sorely mis- taken if he assumes that there will not be a united American opinion behind the executive if it becomes necessary. for Mr. Coolidge to act. It is realized here that the President could not have made his declaration more timely, so far as Mexico is con- cerned, because at midnight last night the time limit expired for American and foreign oil companies to agree to ex- change their vested rights for 50-year leases of a character which they regard as questionable and confiscatory. The United States government has stood squarely behind these American interests and President Coolidge and Secretary of State Kellogg have ex- hausted the means of diplomacy to pre- vent the Mexican government from jeopardizing these vested rights in a manner which America regards as vio- lative of international law. But Calles has stood unfiinchingly for the carrying out of. the Mexican policy, American protests to the con- trary notwithstanding. The long-drawn- out battle of diplomatic notes came to an end on October 30, last, when Secre- tary Kellogg notified Calles that America would maintain its position “with the utmost emphasis.” Now, on January 1, 1927, comes the show-down in the sense that Mexico (CONTINUED ON PAGE 4, COLUMN 1.)

New York, Dec. 31 (By A. P.).—Hav- ing exhausted all their resources in a vain attempt to stave off the moment when the :ew Mexican oil law goes into effect, American ofl interests to- night were awaiting the next move by the Calles government. The law is ef- fective at midnight. Companies claiming to represent 85 per cent of the oil industry in Mexico, banded together as the Association of Producers of Petroleum in Mexico, are understood to have tacitly agreed to make no move toward filing applica- tions for confirmation of their rights as required by the new law. It was said in oil circles that no con- sideration has been given to eventu- alities beyond the end of the year; that the companies considered every possi- bility before making their individual decisions to “stand pat.” No plan or campaign to meet any development of 1927 has been proposed, it was declared, nor would any such plan or campaign be considered until some concrete situa- tion developed. Absolute conf-- ‘ion of oil lands in- volved is hardly expected, as such an action would deprive the Mexican gov- ernment of one of its chief sources of revenue. Whether State Department action would be sought in the event confiscatory measures were adopted members of the oil intergsts declined to state, parrying the question with the statement that no plans have been made for the new year. Only one company, affiliated with the association, the Tex-Mex Co. has com- plied with the new law by — its application. FIGHTING IN NICARAGUA MAY SPREAD TO CITIES Western Extension of War Is Threatened; Corinto Is Panic-Stricken. BATTLE IS LIKELY TODAY Managua, Nicaragua, Dec. 31 (By A. P.).—Fighting between the liberal and conservative forces, which hitherto has been restricted almost exclusively to the east coast, today threatened to spread to the west coast where most of the coun- try’s larger towns are located. Reports received here state that the gun runner Temporal, which the con- servative government claims is of Mexi- can registry, landed arms near Cose- guina on the Gulf of Fonseca, which touches the northwest tip of Nicaragua. The government has sent 1,800 troops, under Gen. Bartolomao Viquez, north- west of Chinandega and near Coseguina, to intercept the liberal forces. A bat- tle is expected tomorrow. The people of Corinto, which is about 50 miles from the affected area, are panic-stricken. The United States mine sweeper Quail, with 50 “marines, is at Corinto, and the American Minis- ter here has said that the marines will be landed in Corinto should American or foreign property or lives be jeop- ardized. 3 An unconfirmed report says that more than 250 men were killed in fighting at Las Perlas, on the east coast. Buenos Aires, Dec. 31 (By A. P.).— Newspapers here continue to criticize the landing of United States naval forces in Nicaragua.. .La Nacion, in a long editorial, de- scribes the landing .of the sailors as an assault on international law and a hard blow to the Monroe doctrine, |‘ which had established the definite right of American nations to liberty against all colonizing encroachment. With re- | gard to. Secretary Kellogg’s contention that the landing was due to a desire to protect American interests, the ed- itorial asserts it has not been stated that the contending Nicaraguan forces caused any damage, violated any right or made any attack on American resi- cents to justify intervention. According to the precedent estab- lished by the Nicaraguan affair, con- tinues the editorial, the sovereignty and rights of American countries are to be subordinated to the number of dollars which the United States has invested in their territory. The conservative government of Adolfo Diaz has announced its refusal to accept the offer of mediation made by the government of Nicaragua’s sister republic, Costa Rica, stating that as the United States “has recognized the Diaz government there was no need for mediation. President Jiminez, of Costa Rica, had made it known that he could not recog- nizze Diaz because he was‘ not the “legal president,” and that he could not recognize Juan B. Sacasa, head of the liberal government, because Sacasa did not have control over Nicaraguan territory. Smith Will Arrive Middle Next Week (By the Associated Press.)

PLANES DROP FOOD TO TRAINS IN SNOW Desperate Efforts Made to Save the Passengers in Spanish Storm. (Special Cable Dispatch.) Madrid, Dec. 31.—Many passengers, including women and children, who had been starving for 16 hours on two snowbound trains near Caudete, on the Alicante-Madrid railway, had food and supplies dropped on them by govern- ment airplanes just in time to save them from starvation. ‘The frantic day and night effort~ by the nearby villagers failed to reach the unfortunate passengers, for the snow is six to eight feet deep on the tracks and there are no snow plows available. Many other trains in various parts of the country are in similar and even more desperate circumatances and the government has mobilized all. possible help to rescue the stranded, starving passengers. The situation is critical, as the cold is most severe, and it is feared that many lives will be lost in spite of the efforts made by the rescue parties. ee a The temperature is below zero at Sagovia, 13 degrees at La Granja, 23 degrees at Teruel, 13 degrees at Burgos and 12 degrees at Madrid., Heavy snow- falls are reported everywhere. 64-Year Will Fight Ends in U.

PROHIBITION CALLED BLESSING TO NATION Has Added $6,000,000,000 to Country’s Wealth, League Statement Says. (By the Associated Press.) A discussion between Secretary Mel- lon and Wayne B. Wheeler, of the Antisaloon leagué, on poison liquor yesterday brought forth a reiteration from, the Treasury chief that the gov- ernment does not intend to endanger the. lives of drinkers in its adulteration of industrial alcohol. Mr. Wheeler went to Mr. Mellon's office to. protest against the govern- ment’s plan to abandon the denatur- ng of industrial alcohol with poisons to prevent its passage into bootleg channels. He held that wood alcohol should be continued as an adulterant until other effective substitutes were dis- covered to make industrial alcohol un- fit for beverage purposes. Wheeler is Converted. Secretary Mellon, however, declared he was not in favor of any denaturant which would fatally poison American citizens even to enforce the law. After the Secretary had outlined his views, Mr. Wheeler agreed. that poisonous adulterants should be eliminated as soon as feasible. Mr. Mellon declared that wood al- cohol still was a component of the de- naturing formula but government chemists were hoping shortly to pro- duce a harmless but nauseating adul- terant. The Antisaloon leader also was assured by the Treasury Secretary that preventive steps were being main- tained to stop any flow of unadulter- ated industrial alcohol into bootleg channels while the chemists were formulating new denaturants. Go expressed hope yesterday that the new ingredient, aldehol, which will be used in dena- turing formulae hereafter, will prove a substitute eventually for wood alcohol. This chemical is composed of a form of crankcase oil and is expected to give the alcohol a very distasteful substance which it will be very hard to eliminate by distillation. Improvement Is Predicted. Prohibition was hailed as a great blessing to the United States by the Anti-Saloon League of America in Aa New Year's statement, while 1927, the board of temperance prohibition and public morals of the Methodist Episco- pal Church believes, will signalize a pronounced improvement in prohibition enforcement. | “Prohibition has added over $6,000,- 000,000 to the nation’s wealth,” de- clared the statement of the Anti- Saloon league, signed by its officers, including Thomas Nicholson, president, General Counsel Wayne B. Wheeler and General Supt. F. Scott McBride. The liquor law also was credited by the league with “lengthening life, safe- guarding health, lessening crime and drunkenness and reviving interest in religion.” Except ih moonshine liquor produc- tion, 1927 ‘‘finds prohibition enforce- neaé -ela iot (CONTINUED ON PAGE 2, COLUMN 2.)

BANNER YEAR BONE, ANOTHER 1S ON WAY HOOVER DECLARES Job for Every American Promised in 1927, Says Commerce Leader. PRODUCTION IN 1926 HIT NEW HIGH MARK Real Wages at Peak and Only Agriculture Lags, Says Secretary’s Statement. (By the Associated Press.) The New Year brings a promise of a job for nearly every American, Secre- tary Hoover said yesterday, arid, busi- ness outlook that is at least free from fear-of a violent commercial or finan- cial cataclysm. Despite agricultural conditions and some recent recessions in production and consumption, the nation, in his opinion, can look for- ward hopefully to. a continuation of its economic progress. : “A reply to requests for opinion on the new year’s economic prospects can only be based upon the economic cur- rents already born of the old year,” the Commerce Secretary said in a for- mal statement. “New and unknown currents will enter in the new year, so there is no such thing as assured eco- nomic prophecy. “No one will deny that 1926 has shown the highest total production and consumption of industrial commodities of any year in the history of the United States. Except in the textile industry and parts of the coal indus- try, it has been a year of high degree of employment, because wage income for the country as a whole has slightly increased and cost of living slightly decreased during the year. Business | Methods Improve. “Manufacturing, the service indus- tries and commerce generally have con- tinued to improve their methods, to reduce costs and to improve services. In aggregate each industry appears to show substantial profits except the tex- tilé and some parts of the coal indus- try. “While there has been a slackening in production and demand for several staple lines during the past few weeks, we enter the new year with no conse- quential over-stock of manufactured goods. With the largest volume of con- struction during the past year ever known there may prove to be some construction in advance of immediate needs, but slackening in -this direction may be partially compensated by the assurance of a larger amount of public construction during the next year. Savings of the country have shown a steady increase and there cheap capital available.

HAD PERSONAL ARGUMENT Dushan 8. Sekulitch, chief clerk “of the legation of the Serbs, Croats and Slovenes, who has been accused by Trafic Director M. O. Eldridge of using abusive language and striking at him during an argument on Thir- teenth street the day before Christ- mas, last night countered by claiming that the traffic director’s attack was inspired by an apparent attempt of the latter to obtain a disputed parking place for his machine. The State Department again will be called upon to act as arbiter in the altercation, formal charges having been filed by Mr. Eldridge with the District commissioners, who in turn transmitted his report without com- ment to Secretary Kellogg. Both the j traffic director and Mr. Sekulitch are positive in their versions of the affair, which attracted a large crowd and re-}, sulted in a viftual tie-up of traffic for several minutes. Mr. Sekulitch asserted last night that he was unaware of the identity of Mr. Eldridge. Denying that he struck the latter, he said: “Oh, no, he Jumped. back as soon as he saw that I was getting angry.” He accused the: traffic director of un- fair and ungenerous tactics, which, he declared, passersby were unanimous in condemning. His story of the dispute is as follows: “I was proceeding along Thirteenth street, between F and G, on December 24, at about 9 o’clock in the morning. Perceiving a parking space for my auto- mobile, I attempted to enter it, but was prevented because of another ma- chine close behind me. “I courteously asked the driver of this car to move back a foot or so, in order to enable me to park, but he re- fused to do so. He apparently wished the place himself and was ungenerous enough to wish to prevent my securing it. Instead of assisting, he kept honk- ing his horn loudly and shouting to me to move on. I then endeavored to park without his cooperation. “It was at this point that Mr. Eldridge—although I had not the re- motest idea of his identity—leaped from his’ machine and rushed up to me, placing his hand on my arm. When I made a movement, and he saw I was ‘| getting angry, he Jumped back. There is no truth in the sttaement that I struck him. I do not recall using any (CONTINUED ON PAGE 2, COLUMN 8.)

There were some whom the hour found in bed. But the great majority, itvseemed, were on their feet and whooping it up. It was a strange and paradoxical farewell-hello that the National Capital sent up at the midnight hour—one composed of murmured prayers and raucotts shouts, organ hymns and screaming jazz, profound solemnity and roaring revelry. The combination wake and. birthday party lasted to the dawn, and there were some revelers who must have been wending their way homeward while others were bound for the morning church services. Christmas did not leave everybody “broke,” apparently, for the night clubs as $12 a plate—were crowded to capace ity.

What ordinarily would be re- garded as “disorderly conduct” drew smiles from the policemen, who had in cases.of downright rowdyism. On the stroke of twelve, a deafening din arose.

She and Mrs. Stearns went for their wraps and came back, Mrs. Coolidge sitting in the window and Mrs. Stearns bowed in acknowledgment of the ap- plause. At midnight, on the dot, the trum- peters sounded “Taps,” the rich notes reverberating out over the avenue and Lafayette park, and then, with a slight “Reveille.” After this ceremony the cornetist and four trombone players entertained the crowd with Beethoven’s “Creation” and Abt’s “Over the Stars,” at the conclu- sion of which Mrs. wh Rs aechabi: good night-and retired.

He will re- ceive a pension of $1,750 a year. “He has been a steady, able fireman of sturdy courage and skill in fire- fighting, born of long experience—one of the last of the old-time fireman,” said George 8. Watson, chief engineer of the department. “For the last four years he has done nothing but respond to extra-alarm fires, holding himscif in reserve to help me in hard fights.” During the period named by Watson, Battalion Chief James C. Keliher has served as acting deputy chief. He was promoted yesterday to full rank to suc- ceed Sullivan. In granting him his retirement, the District board of commissioners handed Sullivan a letter saying, among other complimentary things: Has Record of Loyalty. “Your honorable service of more than 47 years, with “ite history of splendid achievement, constitutes a wonderful record of faithfulness, loyalty and ef- ficiency that will not soon be equalled.” Andrew Jackson Sullivan who, in 1924, was awarded the 1922 Giles Grif- Tin medal for valor, thus becoming a member of the Honor club, was born in Virginia October 1, 1853. He was ap- pointed to the fire department as a yp woe January 2, 1879; was promoted foreman in 1887, to assistant chief engineer in 1903 and to deputy chief in 1908. In 1924 he was made an al- ternate on the trial board and in 1925 was appointed chairman of that board and a member of the policemen’s and firemen’'s retiring and relief board. Keliher is 69 years old. He joined the fire department in 1885, becoming assistant foreman two years later and foreman in 1893. In 1902 he became acting assistant chief engineer, obtain- ing full rank in that capacity a year later. In 1908 he was promoted to first battalion chief engineer. He was award- ed a ribbon decoration for work in connection with the collapse of the roof of the Knickerbocker theater and in 1925 was commended by the commis- sioners for work at Kann’s fire.

GROUPS 10 ASK POWER: Seeks Control of Private: | Buildings Adjacent to Public |? Developments Here. MALL AND PARKS IN ISSUE, Control over private building adja- cent to the mall and other park and public building developments of the National Capital will be asked of Con- gress by the-Fine Arts and the National |Capital Park and Planning commis- sions. Members of the commissions are convinced that private bulldings erect- ed without regard to the general park and public building development easily could spoil the government's efforts toward beauty. Under the legislation which the com- missions will seek the municipal arch- itect would refer to the two commis- sions ‘all building plans which might affect present or future park areas and the commissions’ approval would be necessary. Protests have been received by the fine arts commission for some time regarding building encroachment on park areas and legislation similar to that of Philadelphia controlling these operations is sought. Building operations contemplated in the vicinity of Sixteenth and H streets and any buildings fronting on the Mall or spoiling park vistas would come within their jurisdiction. Commissiofi- ers explained their request as in no sense calculated to interfere with pri- vate rights, but for the protection of the public in development of the park and building program. The area of the coming building pro- gram in the triangle and the Mall might be ruined with unrestricted pri- vate building in their vicinities, and the same situation applies to parks, it was explained. Private building has en- croached rapidly on the Piney Branch park track and Rock Creek park ap- proaches and th¥eatens the extinction of many future parking tracts. BABIES PROVE EXCUSE FOR SPEEDING DADS Two Allege Needs of Infants as Reason for Haste; Court Lenient. Newly born babies were the cause of two young fathers appearing before Judge George H. Macdonald in traffic court last night on speeding charges. Due to the fact that the nation was celebrating the birth of a new year, Judge Macdonald was more lenient than usual, imposing a small fine on one father and taking the personal bond of the other.

Questioning witnesses behind closed doors, Prince Georges county police yesterday began hearings before Judge Harry I. Anderson in the murder Christ- mas eve of Daniel Kuhne, 51-year-old truck farmer, at his home near Duley, d. Seven witnesses appeared at the Marl- boro courthouse to testify before Judge Anderson, including five colored men arrested in connection with the crime. When the court adjourned at 4:30 o’clock, after more than five hours spent in consideration of the case, there were still other witnesses to be heard. The hearings were continued until 10 o’clock Monday morning. Kuhne’s body was found late the night of December 24 in the ashes of his burning home, and a coroner’s jury the following day declared that all in- dications pointed to murder. The theory that Kuhne’s head had been crushed with a crowbar found near the house lasf night was ridiculed by Dep- uty Thomas Garrison, who for two days worked — Sheriff Charles Eariy’s squad on the case. If Kuhne was mur- dered, Garrison said, his assailant car- ried. away with him the weapon he used. rrison further: disclosed that the door t6 Kuhne’s home had been locked when the house was burned. He has in his possession, he said, the watch, keys and penknife at first believed to have been stolen by the murderer, which he found Thursday in the ruins of the home. These will be turned over to Sheriff Early today. Constable E. B. Sweeney, however, who has worked continuously on the case, last night reiterated his belief that Kuhne was killed with the crow- bar. He pointed out that there were blood spots upom it, and that it was not in evidence at 4 o’clock the after- noon before the killing. Kuhne had two watches, he said. LEGATION OFFICIAL BLAMES ELDRIDGE (CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1.) 4 language which any other man would not have used in similar circumstances Spectators of the affair agreed that I was entirely in the right. _ “When I returned®to my legation, I, of course, made a complete report of the trouble, several persons having meantime informed me of Mr. Eld- ridge’s identity. Had I known. whom he was, I would kave shown him my permit, but he said nothing about his being traffic director and displayed no badge of authority. I consider that I was entirely justified in my actions, and I believe all fair-minded persons will agree with me.” ‘ Traffic Director Eldridge’s report, which the commissioners forwarded without comment to the State Depart- ment, is as follows: “On Frida}, December 24, about 9 a. m., while going south on Thirteenth street between F and G streets, .I drove up behind a car which was dou- ble-parked. I blew my korn to warn the driver to move on, as the street was completely filled with vehicles and -this car was blocking traffic. 7 “Instead of moving ahead, he re- versed his gears and came back, bump- ing my car. I assumed that this was an error on his part and again blew my horn, whereupon he moved ahead, reversed his gears and came back hard- er than ever against my car. This was repeated a third time, whereupon I got out and asked the person driving the car what he meant by colliding with my car. “He replied that it was none of my business. I then asked him for his permit, which he gefused to show, again stating that it was none of my affair and that I should get away and I told him that if he did not show me his permit I would call an officer. He became very~abusive in his lan- guage and very Sndignant, and even struck me.

Boston Removes Lid. Boston, Mass., Dec. 31 (By A. P.).— Boston police tonight removed the lid from the city’s New Year's eve celebra- tion. It was made known no arrests would be made during the celebration for “carrying, drinking or serving liquor.” Superintendent of Police Crowley stated the chief occupation of the force with regard to New Year’s eve liquor would be to test it for poisonous con- tent. An effort would be made, the Official said, to obtain samples from restaurant fables to determine the chemical ingredients. Reports were that liquor was plenti- ful but that the quality was bad. HOT QUTSIDE ST. PAUL'S N LONOON HURTS MANY Screaming, Fainting Women Trampled at Cathedral on New Year’s. . London, Saturday, Jan. 1 (By A. P.). A panic in which several persons were injured and many women fainted, end- ed the New Year’s revel in front of St. Paul’s cathedral early this morning. In accordance with custom, immense crowds from all parts of London, and its suburbs gathered before the famous church to celebrate the coming of the year 1927. ; The exact cause of the stampede is not known, but it was a little while after midnight when a sudden rush of people began down Ludgate Hill, which slopes fairly steeply from the west front of the cathedral. In a few moments women and children were screaming and men were shouting, as the crowds sought, safety from some unknown danger. Women and children fainted; others were thrown down to be trampled and kicked. Those men and women who kept their heads seized children and held them above the crowd, meanwhile fighting their way to side streets. For- tunately there was an absence of wheeled traffic, which had been di- verted, and by the time the rush reach- ed the foot of the hill and out into Ludgate circus, the pressure was re- lieved. ’ Ambulances were rushed to remove @ half dozen of the most seriously in- jured to a hospital. Most of the others recovered speedily and were able to go to their homes. As usual there-had been much drinking and horse play in some sections of the crowd; although the majority were orderly merrymakers. Some of those who were thrown down suffered cuts from broken bottles strewn in the streets. : The St. Paul celebration, which origi- nally was just. a midnight religious service, soon was debased by riotous revelry, but. since the war the gather- ings in front of the edifice on New Year’s eve, while still noisy, have been more tame. American Spreads Dollars in France Nice, France, Dec. 31:(By A. P.).— The village of Piera Cava was whoop- ing it up with dollar. bills tonight through the New Year's eve generosity of “Mr. A. Thompson, of Cleveland, Ohio,” who gave to each soldier of the Twenty-second battalion of Alpine chasseurs a brand new greenback. For this Mr. Thompson was made an hon- orary corporal of the organization. Mr. Thompson told the soldiers that if they saved the money he would double the sum next New Year’s, but almost to a man they hurried to change their wealth into cigarettes, cakes or wine. It was remarked that a man would have to be a corporal twenty years to earn as much as Mr. Thomp- eon gave away in twenty minutes. WAR AGAINST LAWS BANNING EVOLUTION ss University Teachers Act to Cooperate for Freedom of Scientists. DEMAND SEPARATION | OF CHURCH AND STATE Legality of Texas Commission | in Taking Subject From Books to Be Probed. Philadelphia, Dec. 31 (By A. P.).— The American Association of University Professors today started a movement for more effective cooperation of vari- ous groups in opposing the spread of antievolution legislation in the several States. The organization met in con- nection with the annual convention of the American Association for the Ad- vancement of Science. This resolution, offered by A. O. Love- joy, of Johns Hopkins university, was adopted: “Resolved, That this association take | initiative in bringing about a more ef- \fective cooperation between all groups | or organizations interested in opposing legislative restriction on freedom of teaching in State-supported institutions and in defending the principle of the separation of church and State in edu- cational matters.” To Inyestigate Texas. ‘ Another resolution on the same sub- ject, presented by Prof. R. H. Johnson, of the University of Pittsburgh, was also adopted: “Resolved, That when some similar organization is formed it should investi- gate the legality of the action of the Texas State textbook commission which has removed all mention of evolution from textbooks in State-supported schools.” The action of the association follow- ed the reading of a report from the committee on freedom of teaching in science, of which Prof. S. J. Holmes, of the University of California, is chair- man, on the spread of antievolution legislation. “Since the last report of our commit- tee,”’ the report said, ‘‘another State. Mississippi, has passed a law prohibit- ing the teaching of the doctrine of evolution in State-supported schools. The statute is similar to the one passed in Tennessee. “Another proposed statute to the same effect was introduced into the legislature in Louisiana, but after con- siderable debate failed to carry. A similar law is drawn up ready for pre- sentation to the legislature in Arkansas when it meets in January, 1927. “The text books have been modified by State authorities in Texas so as to eliminate matters on evolution which are deemed unsafe for youthful minds. Law to Protect Beliefs. “Elsewhere groups are active in the endeavor to have their peculiar heliefs protected by laws which make Yt a crime, punishable by fine or imprison- ment, or both, to teach _ scientific theories which are deemed inconsistent with these beliefs.’’- Prof. H. J. Muller, of the University of Texas, said that evolution was being taught at the University of Texas and is even being tatight in certain high schools. “There is no legislative act forbidding the teaching of evolution,” he said, “and there seems to be no im- mediate danger of such an act, but we certainly should investigate the legality of this deletion of textbooks before we submit to it.”’ , J. W. Reade, of the University of Georgia, said two attempts had been made in his State to forbid the teach- ing of evolution in the schools. Twe bills introduced into the legislature were withdrawn, he declared. D. W. Cornelius, University of Chat- tanooga, after mentioning the Dayton evolution fight, said. the superior court of Tennessee “is now considering this evolution law, and we expect some de- , Clsion in about a week. If the superior | court does not satisfy us we may take | it to the Supreme Court of the Unitéd | States. Go 6 | j ! North Dakota Plans Bill. _ Bismarck, N. Dak., Dec. 31 (By A. P.) | North Dakota's legislature which con- | venes next month will face the evolu- tion teachirig problem, it was learned today. In a conference with the State board of administration, Dr. John Lee Coulter, president of the North Dakota -Agricul- tural college, said he had been informed that L. O. Richardson, Bucyrus, nonpar- tisan representative, will present an evolution measure. ; It would make it unlawful for “any teacher * * * to teach any theory that denies the story of the divine cre- ation of man as taught in the Bible and to teach instead that man has descended. from a lower order of ani- mal.”’ Violations would be classed as misde- meanors and punishable by a fine of from $100 to $5,000 for each offense.

SPONSORS OF CIVIL WAR PROMISED PUNISHMENT Seizure of Oil Lands Unlikely in View of Embassy Here After Statement. Mexico City, Dec. 31 (By A. P.).— Obviously referring to the oll situation, but without specifically naming it, President Calles declares he does not intend to give a constitutional law “an interpretation that may harm legiti- mate interests invested in Mexico.” This declaration is contained in a New Year's message to the Mexican peo- ple given out at-.the presidential of- fice. Mexico, the president says, has suf- fered through misrepresentations. made abroad by enemies of the Mexican gov- ernment. Despite statements from some Catholic sources, he adds, the Mexican government has not attempted to de- stroy any religious faith. He declares that Mexico is not a disciple nor upholder of an exotic sys- tem of government or of political and social theories absolutely strange to Mexican environment and tendencies. These remarks are believed to refer to reports of alleged bolshevist tendencies in Mexico, Difficulties Over Innovation. “The adoption of méthods and sys- tems to develop our natural resources and for the defense of our inalienable rights of nationalism,” the president's message says, “have brought about, on account of the distrust and resistance attached to any: innovation, difficul- ties at home and abroad. Our policy of correct fulfillment and enforcement of the basic laws of the country have provoked the action of antagonistic forces. Happily the points of contro- versy abroad have been dealt with through channels and means befitting calm technical discussion. The agita- tion and resistance at home have not succeeded in altering fundamentally the peace we are enjoying.” At another point the chief execu- tive praises the army for its loyalty to the government despite “criminal intrigue to destroy peace.” “The government entertains the firm- est hope that such loyalty will con- tinue,” he adds, “but if the interests and hatreds insisting upon reopening a period of civil war should succeed again in staining with treason the most high and nobe institutions of the country, the government feels absolutely sure that the guilty ones will receive imme- diate and just punishment.” Mistrust Called Unjustified. Referring to the “unjustified mis- trust of Mexico that has been brewing abroad despite the fact that so far not a single instance of real damage to material interests through the poli- cles of the present administration can be pointed out,” President Calles re- peats his intentions not to interpret the laws so as to harm the legitimate interests invested in Mexico when such laws are passed. “Moral energy and capital from other nations,” he says, “will always be wel- comed in Mexico, with the only condi- tion of fulfilling our laws and the only limitation of not absorbing our national interests.” President Calles declares his admin- istration has put the country upon a soun dfinancial basis. He reviews the educational improvement, emphasizes that the foremost objective of his gov- ernment is the social and moral uplift of the Mexican people, and in conclu- sion invites all the people to cooperate vith the government to that end. No Confiscation Expected. (By the Associated Press.) The Mexican embassy last night in- terpreted the statement of Luis Mo- rones, secretary of industry, issued Thursday in Mexico City on: the pe- ‘troleum and land laws, as meaning there will be no confiscation under ar- ticle 95 of properties of companies which fail to comply with the laws which went into effect at midnight. But the parties who fail to confirm their titles will “renounce their rights under law,”’ the embassy believed, and it was pointed out that those interests having acquired property prior to 1917, by failing to confirm their titles as provided in the petroleum laws, will lose their ‘“‘privileged position.” Titles to property acquired before 1917, when confirmed, will receive in lieu a 50-year lease, which, upon appli- cation, may be renewed for another period of 50 years. Oil properties ac- quired’ after 1917, it was added, are entitled, after their tittes have been may .be extended for a period of an- other 30 years. The embassy has no information as to what steps the Mexican government will take in regard to oil properties in that country after the law becomes ef- fective. It is believed, however, that if oll companies which have failed to confirm their titles apply for drilling permits after today, the government would be entitled to refuse such per- mission. SUPPORT OF PRESS (CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1.) theoretically takes possession of all the properties of American and foreign oil companies which have refused formally to. accept the new’ Mexican laws, which the United States government, infer- entially at least, orders Americans not to accept. The next move is up to Mexico. If Calles actually attempts to seize American properties in conformity with the new laws or if he adopts stringent methods of carrying out those laws, the fat may be in the fire with the first overt act. The assumption is that Calles will not act until he makes up his mind whether or not the United States gov- ernment meant business when it said it would protect American properties and insist upon their rights under international law. Calles has had agents in the United States, many of them volunteers, who have been sounding out sentiment, discussing the question with certain radical legislators here and en- deavo to find out whether Presi- dent idge will retreat in case Calles American People Not Divided. All this assumes particular signifi- House statement yesterday that the tee + a. ae LL Se OTN I 8 ES TE OC IE AN TS A ET LT IE a I te et A tee a | Eccentric Male Ends ‘Army Education Test You may learn about the great binding laws of the universe in . books, and you may learn from books the charm of poesy, a knowl- edge of the classics, of science and higher mathematics, but one must look outside books to learn about the devious ways-of the army mule, the quartermaster general of the army declared yesterday.

As a prelude to the statement by the White House spokesman yesterday, it was stated that the United States has made no overtures to the soviet gov- ernment of Russia in connection with recognition of that government by the government of the United States. It was hinted that certain American in-. dividuals may have made some state- ments abroad, but the White House stressed the point that Americans in| Europe who speak without any author- ity to represent their government often do more harm than good in the field of international relations. | the great Methodist Church Seized= _ By Mexican Government | The Mexican government has seized | the first building belonging to an/| Afnerican Protestant church and has taken steps to make it permanent na- tional property, according to the Diario Official, official gazette of the Mext@an government, received here yesterday. The building is owned by the Metho- dist Episcopal Missions of the South and is located at Piedras Negras, State of Coahuila, where it was in chargeg of J. A. Phillips, a Methodist Minister. Last February it was closed by the fed- eral authorities because of alleged teaching of religion by foreigners. ; The Methodist Episcopal Church, South, is given, however, an opportuni- ty to appear before the Mexican govern- ment to protest the confiscation of property, and because Mexican officials are not aware of the American address of the church, notification will be printed in the Diario Official for five days. HOOVER PROMISES BANNER NEW YEAR (CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1.) is a consequent lowered buying power in some agricultural sections. “Taking the foreign field as a whole, it shows continued progress toward balance of budget, reduction of floating | debt, greater stabblity in currency and | somewhat diminished unemployment. The most important exception has been the results of the British coal strike which left the world poorer by its in- terruption to the progress of that country, but this is now happily over. Russia shows some economic improve- ment, and China, due to international trade relations, still continues below normal. Each year sees progress. in European political relations with fear less and less a dominating factor. Sees Hopeful Tendencies, “Combining all foreign and domestic tendencies with which we enier the new year, while some of them are not s0 good as we could wish, others are most hopeful. To those who are inter- ested in the movement of the business cycle, it is worth remarking that we have had no inflation in commodities as prices have decreased rather than increased during the year. ‘Moreover, the elasticity of credit through the Federal Reserve System, the absence of undue stocks of ¢om- modities, the greatly enlarged informa- | tion services of the country and wider | understanding (and thus better com- | mon judgment and caution) are all) protections against violent movements, | such ‘as we experienced in former | times. | Prospect For Jobs Good. ‘ | “The nation is making economic | progress.

If we | use the more precise term “economic | progress” we find we have per capita as | the result of the year 1926 more and | better homes, more electric lights and power, more transportation, more roads, more substantial buildings, more radios and more automobiles, more savings, more life insurance and more of a lot of things.

LOW COTTON PRICES CAUSE BUILDING DROP Manufacturing States and Centers of Coal Mining Give Cheerful Reports. ‘(By the Associated Press.) On the basis of a survey of employ- ment prospects made in every State, Director General Francis Jones, of the Federal employment service, yesterday predicted a satisfactory condition for workers during 1927. While the year 1926 was classed a6 one of remarkable business activity, almost free of joblessness for most of the people in the country, he declared the outlook for 1927 to be .hopeful for a continuation of the same state of affairs. “The volume of employment should equal if not surpass the year just closed,” Jones said in making public the survey. . mr Some _ differences prospects were noted in the ora get regions of the country. In several 0 the Southern States, the effect of pre- vailing low ,prices for cotton was nigge to be a potent cause for a decline oO building and urban activity. In Iowa and Nebraska agricultural profits were said to have fallen to a point that oc- casioned a drift from the farm to the cities and produced there an oversup- ply of unskilled labor. Recession in Building. A large number of State directors look- ed for a recession of building activity, though much construction was said to be- under way or projected. However, manufacturing States, such a6 Illinois, Pennsylvania, New York, New Jersey and Massachusetts, reported good prospects for a maintenance of heavy pay rolls. On the Pacific coast California spe- cialized agricultural production was said to be expanding and thus neces- sitating steady employment of workers in allied and contributing industries. In Florida stabilization of industry and population was counted upon to con- tinue workers in service. Ohio, while showing some oversupply of unskilled workers, gave ground for expecting a balanced operation of industry. Several centers of the coal mining industry, North and South, were sources of cheerful predictions as to employ- ment, and West Virginia and Virginia were among the few States in which prospects indicated a betterment in 1927 over 1926 records. Automobile plants at Detroit and-elsewhere likewise were said to be organizing to Operate during 1827 on greater production schedules than those which in 1926 set new records for output. employment with a job in prospect for most evéry- body, with the whole nation better fed, better housed, and better clothed than any other nation. The large disappear- ance of poverty in the chronic sense should make us more sensible to th remedy of-misfortune in the individual sense, and the high recovery of indus- try and commerce from the losses of the war should make us more sensible of the needs of agriculture. Record Mails Are Cited As Proof of Prosperity A record breaking amount of mail throughout December—exceeding by 1,000 rloads the highest record for any month in the past and for’ the transportation of which the people paid $3,500,000 more in postage than: they ever before expended—was cited by Postmaster General Harry S. New yesterday as proof of the widespread and general prosperity of the nation. “These figures,” Postmaster General New declared, “present an insuperable argument to the assertions- of those apostles of gloom who, in the past few months, have been painting dismal portraits of hungry men and women and pointing warning fingers at imagi- nary clouds of impending business de- pression looming just over the horizon. “An impoverished citizenry could not afford, nor a declining purse permit, the outlay for gift exchange that was made for postage alone in December 1926—an expenditure that must be reckoned as only a fraction of the sums actually spent in response to the holi- day spirit.” Money sent abroad through the New York exchange office in the first 28 days,of December totaled $7,406,652, an increase of $810,161 or more than 12 per cent greater than the total sent abroad in the same period last year, and the total will be swelled by reports from other offices. Postal receipts have increased in small towns throughout the country Mr. New added, and cited these things as additional proof of the widespread prosperity and the likelihood of its continuance. Plot to Seize Boris Is Reported Blocked Paris, Dec. 31 (By A. P.).—A Sofia dispatch to the Paris edition of the London Daily Mail says a widespread communist plot in Bulgaria with the object of seizing King Bo¥is and com- pelling him to abdicate has been frus- trated by the police in the capital and provinces.

SOUTH DAKOTA HOLDS EYES OF POLITICIANS Nomination Status of Coolidge to Be One of Questions Decided. By NORMAN W. BAXTER. As it is ushered in today, this is the year of political mystery, but before it has run its course the battle lines will have been drawn for all of the pre- liminary skirmishes of the presidential campaign to be finally determined in 1928.

In De- cember the proposal convention will be held at which the wishes of the State will be registered with some form of definiteness. Biss Put Forward in 1919. It was at such a time and fashion in 1919 that Calvin Coolidge, now oc- cupant of the White House, first was put forward for the office. The then governor of Massachusetts filed, with several other men, before the vdéters of South Dakota as a presidential. as- pirant. He was rewarded with the pro- posal convention preference for th Vice Presidency on the Republican ticket. It would be only natural for ‘him to return to the birthplace of his national political realizations, if he in- tends to be a candidate in 1928. There will be no reticence as far as other candidates are concerned. -In the primary fight for the selection of delegates, South Dakota, although a minor factor, has come to hold much the place that Maine does in an elec- tion. The Northwestern constituency provides an opportunity for official en- try. In the event of success the re- sult there may have a certain psy- chological effect on States where po- litical thought is waiting for some of the strains from the band wagon. Certainly what happens in South Da- kota this year will answer many ques- tions that puzzle politicians and po- as can candidates who have buried their hopes will neglect the opportunity to give their booms an actual test. ‘Definite Decision Seen.. South Dakota should prove with defi- niteness whether the President is to be faced with a struggle for the nomina- tion or whether the Republicans in 1928 merely will engage in a revival of the formality with which they toyed in Cleveland and called 4 convention. Events there shou demonstrate whether former Gov. Frank L. Lowden is making a serious effort; if he has not spoken to the country before, and whether he and Vice President Charlés G. Dawes, as is constantly béing said in the political whispering gallery, have entered into an offensive and defensive alliance, which would result in the ele- vation of the latter if the Lowden pros- pects gained no encouragement. November in South Dakota should re- veal, also, whether Speaker Nicholas ngworth is to be a major factor in presidential considerations this com- ing campaign or the one after that, or whether it is true, as it has been sug- gested recently, that the Ohio man’s boom is beginning to deflate. Democratic riddles will be answered also for the machinery in South Dakota is all-embrasive as far as political parties are concerned. The men who now deny their candidacies will have an opportunity then to demonstrate how actual their words have been. To Show Smith Aim. It will show, for instance, whether Gov. Alfred E. Smith of New York, is out for Northwestern support and how much return the hard work. of his friends in the rural hinterland is due to yield. The same factor will develop an in- the impotency of Madison 8q den, if the war still is on the rival opportunity to come to grips. Atfiong other Demotrats the test of November should gerve to demonstrate those who are potential candidates and those who “cratic party is honeycombed with ambi- tions which.in many instances will not, Dakota should limit. rather’ definitely the field from whith ‘the acttalities of Democratic presidential hopes will be harvested. Leading up to November in South Dakota will be maneuvering on both sides from which neither Congress nor the administration will be .freé, but altogether it will serve to break the silence which at the beginning of the year is as ominous as it is oppressive. Debt of Portugal _ To Britain Funded London, Dec. 31 (By A. P.).—An agreement has been signed in London for funding the Portuguese war debt to Great Britain. It provides for pay- ment in 62 annuities beginning with £126,000 for’1926 and gradually rising to £400,000 yearly for the years from 1989 to 1987 and a final payment of £200,000 in 1988.

FIRST 1927 RADIO ARRWES 17 HOURS BEFORE 1996 ENDS Passengers on the Carinthia in Cook Strait Answer Associated Press. New York, Dec. 31 (By A. P.).—A greeting from the year 1927, flung by. radio 10,000 miles across the world into the teeth of time, was received by the Associated Press in New York, where 1926 had almost seventeen hours still to run. 8 The feat was halléd 4s an unparallel- ed achievement both in news gather- ing and marine radio communication “y David Sarnoff, general manager of the Radio Corporation of America, whose cooperation made possible t exchange of greetings between the t years and the two sides of the earth. Early today the Associated Press sent a greeting to a score of world tour- ists on the Cunard liner Carinthia, in Cook strait, New Zealand. Because of the difference in time, the message, al- though delivered almost instantaneous- ly, was received on the Carinthia aé the passengers were celebrating New Year’s eve. As the old year died across the world and the new was born, the passengers vent a return greeting to New York, received here at 7:24 a. m., December 31, almost seventeen hours “before it was sent.” ; The feat; Myr. Sarnoff told the Asso- clated Press, “is more than. an accom- plishment in direct communication by radio over a distance of. half the world’s surface. It is in reality. the circum- navigation of the globe by radio through the medium of short-wave com- munication, for radio waves travel in all directions. Ship’s Scope. Unlimited. “The experiment gives further point to the call made by the United States government for a world meeting in Washington in 1927 to revise the in- ternational radio telegraph convention of 1912. * * * This provides that a ship at sea in communicating with land must do so through the nearest coastal station. The present experiment. has proved the possibility of direct radio communication with a ship at sea over unlimited distances. “Development of short-wave com- munication which has made this feat possible seems destined enormously to simplify the machinery of newsgather- ‘ing as well as the machinery of world telegraphic communications. The Asso- ciated Press for the first time has at- ‘tained a 10,000 miles interview by the ;direct exchange of questions and an- .swers between the editor in New York and prominent Americans on ship- boar.” By means of the short wave used in the exchange of greeting across the world, the Carinthia has been in con- stant communication with New York since its departure October 14. It has passed through thse Panama canal to the Pacific and so into the waters of the Tasman sea off New Zealand. Text of Messages. The Associated Press message was nddressed to Mr. and Mrs. Harry Bailey, Philadelphia; Mrs. William Baker, Washington; Mrs. John A. Beck, Pitts- burgh; Mrs. C. Austen Baxter, Pasa- dena; Mrs. Paul Benz, St. Paul; Rufus Calkins, Detroit; Roland R. Conklin, New York; Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Felton, Boston; Mrs. Daniel Hill, St. Louis; A. C. Hord, Cleveland; Mrs. Edward H. Inbusch, Milwaukee; 32. and Mrs. R. T. Porte, Salt-Lake City; Mr. and Mrs. Charles H. Thorne, Chicago, and Mr. and Mrs. Stanley Prior, San Fran- cisco. The greeting sald: “Associated Press in New York, 10,- 000 miles away, sends you New Year's greetings on other side of world through courtesy Radio Corporation of America. This message, without parallel in ma- rine radio history, sent through air on last day of old year and owing to dif- ference in time should reach’ you in- stantaneously on first day, 1927.

Communist propaganda has been skillfully spread among the people by American and foreign spokes- men. Accordingly, on the eve of a pos- sible clash with Mexico, the administra- tion finds that it is. not supported by the whole people, as it would have been if it had revealed the proofs of Mexican .ag- gression in Nicaragua and had acted reso- lutely in protecting the vital interests of the United States against this new danger. i The American people are not anything if they are not American, as President Coolidge truly remarked at Trenton. They will support their government as soon as they know that it is proceeding to deal in American fashion with all enemies, foreign and domestic. THE COUZENS BILL. Senator Couzens proposes to introduce a Dill under which the right of the Treasury Depart- ment to grant refunds of customs duties and internal revenue taxes shall be transferred ,to At the head of is the comptroller general, the general accounting office. that office who holds office for fifteen years, with authority independent of the executive branch of the government. His duty is to audit all payments made by the government. The law provides that he shall not be removable by the Presi- dent, but the recent Supreme Court decision makes it clear that the President has power to remove all officers appointed by him. The Secretary of the Treasury and the com- missioner of internal revenue, as well as the customs bureau, both subordinate to the Secre- tary, have authority to make refunds of sums illegally or improperly paid into the Treasury on account of internal revenue taxes or cus- toms dues. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 1925, internal revenue’ refunds amounted to $147,777,000 and customs reve- nue refunds amounted to $22,920,000. For the fiscal year ending June 30, 1926, internal reve- nue refunds amounted to $182,220,0v00 and-i customs 744,000. These refunds arise out of decisions of the board of tax appeals, the customs court, or higher court decisions. They are not arbi- trary, but are made only after reversals of the decisions of the commissioner of internal reve- nue or the customs bureau or collectors of customs or the board of appraisers. Unlike the ordinary payments made by the several departments of the government, these are refunds made under some decision by an authority other than the Secretary of the Treasury, mostly judicial or semijudicial estab- lishments. Should the Couzens proposal be made a law, it might conflict with the existing powers of tlhe board of tax appeals, or even the courts. If the general accounting office could refuse to refund money which the board of tax appeals, the customs court or perhaps the revenue refunds amounted to $27.- ‘Supreme Court decided ‘should be refunded, it would be above all these establishments. The general accounting office has come into conflict with some of the departments,’ as was to have been expected. But it is another mat- ter to come into conflict with the courts. Con- gress can not constitutionally limit the judicial power. The Couzens bill should be scrutinized by some of the constitutional lawyers in Con- gress, if there are any such lawyers. A PARKING CONTROVERSY. Expressing doubt as to the legal right of Trafic Director Eldridge to give special park- ing privileges to business houses’in front of their store entrances, Judge John P. McMahon, of the District police court has further com-. plicated the parking regulations, for a short time at least. All through the business district it has been customary for firms having much uploading and loading of merchandise to do in conne@tion with their business to obtain the right to bar motorists from parking in front of their establishments. These reserved spaces are designated by signs supplie y the police. Some days ago a woman parked her car in front of a store in F street ignoring the prohib- itory signs. She was arrested and cited to ap- pear in Judge McMahon’s court, charged with violating the traffic regulations, in that she ig- nored the signs which advised that no park- ing was permitted between those signs, the space being reserved as a “shipping entrance.”’ The offender appeared in her own behalf and without a lawyer. The point was raised that the traffic director exceeded his authority when he permitted such special reservations for the benefit of the occupant of the building. ‘Taking the personal bonds of the alleged of- fender Judge McMahon took the case under advisement. He will announce his decision next week. That decision will have a decided effect upon traffic movement throughout the congested section of the city as, should the court hold that Mr. Eldridge had no power to promulgate such a regulation, hundreds of business places will be seridusly inconve- nienced in receiving and shipping supplies. GROWTH OF THE LIBRARY. Dr. George F. Bowerman, librarian of the Public library, apparently phenomenon. has discovered a In 1911, before the first branch at Takoma Park was completed, the main library circulated some 600,000 volumes. Next year, despite the fact that the branch wag func- ‘tioning, the main office was called on for more than 650,000 volumes. In 19%2 the south- eastern branch was opened: and the circula- tion at the main library increased more than 100,000. Then came the Mount Pleasant branch, the largest of all; and circulation at the main library increased another 150,000 volumes..- Originally it was thought that the opening of branch libraries would lessen the demands on the parent institution, but experience has proved the opposite to be true. In one respect explanation would seem _ simple, branches are opened to care for increased pop- » é i ba * " . ‘teh ey i ; + & . - 1 a “we \. Nn ey ee fF +; mo . % a . » { ,. ‘ at Pre . “eta . # t me +. yt F * . creased demands are felt through all the of- ‘fices. This explanation, however, does not fully account for the abnormally large demand for books. It is possible that the act of placing books where they may be obtained with little dif- ficulty has increased the public appetite for reading. The main library carries on its shelves many books of more or less limited in- terest, which can not be placed in the branches. An individual may drop into the neighborhood branch, however, become interested in some subject which he desires to pursue beyond the facilities available at the branch, and thus de- velop into a regular patron of the main library. The Public library with its branches is doing a great work in extending the facilities for ob- taining knowledge to every one. The branches apparently are acting as feeders to the down- town institution. Congress is now considering a bill to provide funds to extend the scope and influence of’the branches. Obviously it should be passéd. : HAITI’S BIRTHDAY. This day is the 123d anniversary of the in- dependence of Haiti. The little republic was the second in this hemisphere to achieve. its independence. Some of the individuals who led the fight for independence had already been baptized on the battlefield, fighting for the independence of the United States. In 1779, -responding to the call of the Comte d’Estaing, 800 blacks and mulattoes of Haiti left their homes and families and came to this country to fight shoulder to shoulder with the soldiers of Washington. At the siege of Sa- vannah they shed their blood for America. The United States has felt itself morally bound to maintain the independence of Haiti. Tt is now engaged in that task, which requires that Americans shall assist the Haitians to or- ganize their government, rehabilitate the na- tional finances, and enable the people to de- velop their country’s resources. The people of Haiti appreciate this help. They know that when the time comes for the restoration of a native government the United States hand over all:authority, without any demand for compensation, as it did in Cuba and Santo Domingo. TREASURE TROVE WORTH WHILE. Readers of The Sunday Post have regarded the story of the discovery of the ‘‘city of gold’”’ by. Chester Gump and his two companies as a Munchausenistic yarn. Few were disposed to believe that any such city existed anywhere in the world, and the story of its complete loss following an earthquake just as Uncle Bim arrived with his rescuing airship was looked upon as an easy means of bringing to an end the fantastic yarn. But Sidney Smith, the inventor of Andy Gump and his family, is vindicated. That city of gold has really been discovered and its exact location is known, if a copyrighted dispatch to the Chicago Daily News from London is not another fake. The latest discovery locates the wonderful treasure house in Palestine, and it has been guarded by the Bedouins against all comers for many centuries. It was an Arab who stumbled over the tilting stone which covered the secret passage into the storied city of the days of the Queen of Sheba, Solomon, and all that company of millionaires who built temples, pyramids and tombs “regardless of cost.”” When that rock tilted under the unsus- pecting Arab he found himself in a passage way leading into a series of vaulted chambers which were filled to the limit with all sorts of treasure. The cabled report says that the British high commissioner had the poor Bedouin arrested when he tried to sell some of his loot, and further we are told that the high commissioner is rather inclined to skepticism. Probably he had read of the adventures of Chester Gump, and like some of The Post’s subscribers, be- lieved that the whole story of the Gump golden city is a figment of the imagination. How- ever, he reported the facts, or the fiction, to the London authorities, and that’s how the story of the discovery got out. Should the yarn of the Arab prove to be based on absolute truth the British nation may be able to get enough out of that ancient treas- ure house to liquidate its obligation to the United States in something less than 62 years. Doubtless Secretary Mellon will be willing to. allow the regular discount for cash in 30 days. DISTRICT AUTO TAGS. Moved to action by failure of the Chicago firm holding the contract for manufacture of local automobile tags to make delivery on ‘schedule, the District commissioners recently appointed a committee to visit the Maryland State penitentiary to inspect the equipment in use at that institution for the manufacture of Maryland license plates. Capt. M. M. Barnard, superintendent of the District workhouse at Occoquan, a member of the committee, re- ported unofficially to Commissioner Dough- erty last Wednesday that apparently the plan to have prisoners in his.institution make the plates for the District was entirely feasible. The whole committee is expected to make an official report to that effect within a few days. - Machinery necessary to equip a complete li- cense plate manufacturing shop at the District workhouse would cost in the neighborhood of $50,000 new, or $20,000 second-hand. Fer some time the District has been purchasing 100,000 pairs of tags annually at a cost of 14 cents a pair. Capt. Barnard feels certain thei similar tags could be made in his institution at a cost of 8 cents a pair. : The District, therefore, could manufacture 100,000 pairs of tags each year at a saving of -$6,000 as compared to the price if purchased in the market. Allowing for depreciation and other unforeseen expenses it is apparent that any equipment purchased would be paid for completely within a very few years. Further- ‘more, it is likely that before long 100,000 pairs of tags will not ‘be sufficient, and with in- creased production, costs would be cut down, and the saving from home manufacture cor- respondingly increased. , dustry; averse to embracing any opportunity to save for | The workhouse desires the additional in- the local government should. not be money, Every‘effort should be put ‘forth to obtain the equipment necessary in ample time ulation, and with ‘more persons in the city in- | to manufacture the supply of tags for 1928. ‘ ~ ae ee Zh bo PA - a SL Ty OMT EN Re IF - as - , TEER LE ep OP aac Gh ee eam oft Ry 7 r ” 4 , y: 2 : . > Vyas ; YEE oe Seales ig nermeienn set aiencenpneertaretteeeaes b—yerearenrr ace —- tee wave ty - one Ki eats eh) weedy AS ; at ka eee - be % nt 4 av, Sys igg eye t a ap .

Freri, of the Italian aviation forces, according to a dispatch from Genoa, has invented ‘a pocket-size parachute.” It is fur- ther declared that the tiny thing has been tested and found to be a huge success. At a recent test exhibition the inventor jumped from an airplane at a height of 1,260 feet, and with his par- achute managed to land smoothly with- in a few minutes. This is interesting, but what particular advantage there may be in a pocket parachute the aver- age layman will have difficult in imag- ining. In an emergency an excitable aviator might forget in what pocket he had put his life saver. The Span of Life. Philadelphia Public Ledger: The “Bad Old Men” against whom flaming ‘| youth has been revolting periodically for the last couple of hundred years constitute, so it seems, a comparatively recent‘ phenomenon. Prof. T. Wingate Todd, of Western Reserve university, the other day told the scientists in con- vention here sorne things about this. modern invention—old age. In an- cient and medieval times, he pointed out, the highest death rate occurred about the age of 42. Today, in civi- lized communities, it is postponed un- til 72 has been reached. Of course, there were old men (and some of them doubtless bad) back in the times of Alexander and Charlemagne. But their proportion was small. In the present era it is large, and many political, psy- a chological and sociological implications could be based thereupon. It can't be helped. Not many of us would want to help it. If it were not for these oldsters, the younger generation might refrain from its picturesque rebellions. That would deprive the world of some- thing we can not well spare. COAL, GREATEST ASSET. _ Next to our soll, our greatest Amer- ican asset is coal, obsefves the Beau- mont Enterprise. “Black diamonds” have never been half enough appreci- ated. It has taken an international conference of scientists at Pittsburg to show the worth of this fuel, which ex- ists in the United States in almost in- exhaustible quantities. According to these experts, we can get along well enough without petrole- um when that is gone. We can burn in our gas engines just as godd gasoline from coal, at no greater expense. More wonderful still, a New York chemist as- sures us that by a process he has. per- fected we can run our automobiles on coal dust, at a cost equivalent to 6-cent gasoline. That is only a starter in the program visioned by these practical scientists. liquid or powder form, for powder, heat and other purposes, eliminating the useless transportation of ashes. be turned into an almost infinite num- ber of coal tar products, including dye- stuffs, flavors, fertilizer and ammuni- Everything that went into coal, the scientists say, can be extracted from coal. Everything of a chemical nature can be done with coal that could have been done with the wood that made it. Even food may be obtained direct from coal. Thus coal may furnish the power to do all the mechanical work of a smoke- less city, and light and heat it, and at the same time feed its inhabitants.

Americans like to complain about ho- tel service and discomforts, yet they use hotels a great deal and perhaps. en- joy better and pleasanter hotel service than most other nations, says the Os- wego Palladium Times. An Italian hotelkeeper, in this coun- try studying American hotels in many of our large cities, has come-to the con- clusion that our hotels give remarkable ; attention to the individual comfort and | needs of guests.

Official Says Split Will Not Af- fect U. S. Team. N.C.A.A. and Federa- tion Have Proven of Little Aid. A EW YORK, Dec. 31 (By A. P.). Withdrawal of the National Col- legiate Athletic assocfation and National Amateur Athletic federation from the American Olympic association has capped the climax of a long-stand- assert it will not interfere with the forward progress of preparations for this country’s participation in the 1928 In voicing this opinion today, the of- ficials pointed out that even the N. C. A. A. had not committed itself to active opposition or interference with the Olympic plans now within the control of the Amateur Athletic Union and as- sociated .governing bodies. Underlying causes of the break in athletic ranks have existed for so long that it is not. believed the open rift will materially alter the situation. Boiled down, it is chiefly a case of dis- agreement on-the part of the N.C. A. A. and N. A. A. F. with the sports govern- ing policies of the A. A. U. in interna- tional track and field athletics. William C. Prout, newly elected president of the Olympic associa- tion, and a prominent A. A. U. ex- ecutive for years, points out that while “the Olympic association is imbued with patriotic spirit,” it is necessary that deference be paid to the various national sports govern- ing bodies, such as the A. A. U., and others, “on matters of athletic policy, matters which require ath- letic experience and knowledge, and on technical matters.” Taking up the present split, Mr. Prout asserts that the Olympic associa- tion “wants the enthusiasm, the in- terest and the inspiration of organiza- tions such as the Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts,” but adds: “They cannot rightfully be expected to make any other contribution to the success of the Olympic movement in this country and the records show that they never have made any other ccn- tribution. The so-called federation (N. A. A. F.) exists principally on paper and has made no contribution to the success of the Olympic movement other than the interest and activity of its representatives in the Olympic associa- tion. “The backbone of the Olympic as- sociation is and always has been the sports governing bodies of the United States, the Olympic association could not get along without them. [If the federation, the Girl Scouts, the N. C. A. A. and the Navy league cannot work with the American Olympic association unless they control it, then the Ameri- can Olympic association will be forced *« = © and to the support of the great Amert- can public in order that our share in ictories will be as flattcring of — Olympiads.” Halbert, A.A.U., Criticizes Withdrawal of N.

American Olympic association. ! President Hulbert defended the A. A. U. and praised its work in foster- ing track and field athletics in the United States over a period of many years. He declared that when the vote by which the National Collegiate A. A. withdrew from the American Olympic association was taken “at the close of the meeting there were but a handful present and I doubt seriously if Gen. Pierce would have been upheld had the question been taken up earlier when there was a substantial number of delegates present.” Gen.

JANUARY 1, 1927. - EAST PITS ALABAMA AGAINST STANFORD TODA Following Throu with Shirley L-Povich 4SEBALL contributes its bit to the startling year of 1926. The, spcrts talent has been jolted’at virtually every undertaking during the span of the past twelvemonth, but baseball did not toss in its choicest contribution until the fag end of t*.e year when it offered up, in keeping with previous events, a + gem of inconsistency—its scandal of 1926. We'had the scandal of 1919 when eight pairs of White Sox failed to hold their color in the wash of in- vestigation and we had the scandal of 1924 when Jimmy O’Connell was sent back to the coast a sadder and wiser young man, but the scandal of 1926 with its avalanche of testimony, statements, denials, counter-denials, admissions, confessions, concessions and defamations by the principals, their friends and their friends’ friends wins the honors as the most inconsistent event of the year. Attempting to reconcile the evi- dence developed by the scandal is a job for King Solomon and for no- body of less judicious mien. There can be no amicable settlement. The scandal cannot be dismissed as a huge mistake. There have been too many accusations and inferences to permit of a decision justifiable to either the accused, the. accuser or the judges. The case is doomed to be forever mooted. It is but another of the unexpected events that the year has wrought. Dutch Leonard provided the fire- works by his testimony that Hnked himself, Ty Cobb, Tris Speaker and Joe’ Wood with betting on a “fixed” game in 1919. Judge Landis touch- ed off the fireworks by making public the testimony of the former Detroit pitcher that rocked the baseball world. Ty Cobb, rising in injured inno- cence, threatened to stamp out all signs of deserved excitement with his denial of any complicity in the scan- dal and meeting with a wave of popular sympathy that all but smoth- ered the conflagration. Tris Speaker arose to defend him- self and Cobb from the accusations of Leonard, standing on his record of long. service and augmenting the popular favor that Cobb’s denial of the charges had aroused. Joe Wood, admitting that he had arranged with Leonard to bet on a game, coincided with Cobb and Speaker in their denunciation of their accuser. Fred O. West admitted that he ‘placed a bet on the ball game for - Leonard. Ban Johnson, an apparent fanatic in his desire to keep baseball above suspicion, immediately “denounced Cobb and Speaker upon the publica-. tion of Leonard's testimony. Kenesaw Mountain Landis, sitting in judgment on the case, rendered no decision. Cobb and Speaker denied that the impending developments had forced them to resign the managership of the Detroit and Cleveland clubs. Cobb and Speaker resigned ap- proximately one month before the scandal broke. Martin Killilea, American league attorney, said he bought the alleged- ly incriminating letters from Dutch Leonard. Dutch Leonard said he did not sell | the letters to the American league. Dutch Leonard said he turned over the letters to the American league because he considered it his duty to help the game by exposing any irreg- ularities. Ty Cobb said that Leonard’s dis- posal of the letters to the Ameri- can league was the work of a dis- gruntled, vengeful ball player who became vindictive at the refusal of the Detroit club to retain his services. Fred O. West made a <omplete de- nial of his former statement that he placed a bet on the ball game for Leonard. He declared that the money given him by Leonard was wagered on @ horse race. West said that the horse won the race and that he collected the money for Leonard. He proved his statement by pro- ducing the bookmaker’s ticket on the horse. | He produced the bookmaker’s ticket, and it later developed that when horses won races the ticket first would have to be turned over to the bookmaker before pay.nent of the bet is made. West failed to explain how he turned the ticket over to the book- gh ‘Clark Griffith Denies Washington Ever Sought Aid. a Only for Purposes of Advertising. By FRANK H. YOUNG, R.

Trailing Clubs, Is Statement. Games on Level and Practice Not Unfair, Is Declaration. Tt. LOUIS, Dec. 31.—Basebajl ab- sorbed another shock with the statement attributed to Phil Ball, wealthy owner of the St. Louis Ameri- cans, that clubs often acted in collusion near the end of the season when one of the rivals was mathematically sure of its position in the race. The statement, printed in the St. Louis Star, while not attempting to add to the scandal surrounding the game at present, said in effect that teams have often acquiesced to the request of a rival club to use certain pitchers chosen by their rivals. This was done so that the latter would have a chance to win games played near the end of the season when there was nothing to be lost by its opponent. “It has often happened as a race for the pennant drew near the end t one of the two leading teams in the! league agreed to favor the third or fourth team,” Ball said. “To make this ‘clear, let’ us suppose that Team A is sure of first place, Team B for second and Teams C and D are fight- ing for third place. Many of the play- ers on Team C are friendly with play- ers on Team B. The C players go to the Bs and say: ‘You fellows don’t need to worry about losing this game. It standing in the Let John Doe pitch, will you? we would have a better chance against him.’ e “If the B players are feeling good natured, they will agree to allow Johnny to pitch.

(CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1.) over all cases such .as gambling, game “fixing,” operation of baseball poois or any sort of crookedness in connection with the game. The commission would, in direct con- trast with the policy used by Judge Landis and organized baseball at pres- ent, give public hearings to all persons or parties accused of these crimes, and if convictions should be arrived at, complete statements of the reasons and evidence upon which the. action was taken would. be made puBlic. Before laying the bill before ‘Congress it is probable, Representative Kelly said, that comments and suggestions will be sought from various presidents, managers, writers and others interested in organized baseball, in order that the bill when formally presented will be as comprehensive as possible. Represent- ative Kelly said that he will submit his draft to Senator Capper prior to any other move in the matter, and that the latter and himself will introduce the bill in Congress when the time comes. In spite of the Federal league deci- sion of 1922,-in which Justice Holmes, of the Supreme Court, said that or- ganized baseball does not come under government jurisdiction, because it does not constitute interstate com- merce, the Pennsylvania representative believes that the government can con- trol the game when it is operated in leagues which cover two or more States. Representative Kelly started framing the bill yesterday with the knowledge that at least one prominent figure in rganized baseball—Ban Johnson, Amer- ican league president—is heartily in favor of the government stepping in to exercise control over the game. J o.hn- son recently expressed himself upon she subject in connection with the circvula- tiof® by a Cleveland fan of a petition for nation-wide support of governmental supervision.

In the.event that the bill was passed Judge Landis would see himself blotted out as one of baseball’s integral parts, while the commission, says Representative Kelly, ‘“‘would take over all the czarlike properties; of Landis.” Ban Johnson Ready to Aid U.

Charles “Swede” Risberg, one of the Chicago “black sox” of the 1919 world’s series, accepted today the invitation of Commissioner Landis to come here and tell some more of baseball’s secrets, of which he claims knowledge. Risberg has said his “inside informa- tion’? would make the Cobb-Speaker ex- pose “look silly,” and he promised Landis today to come as soon as he could get away from his farm near Rochester, Minn. Landis offered him expenses and a “fair compensation” for his trip. The Cobb-Speaker embers were qui- escent here, but gave off a few more sparks at Detroit today. The two stars and their lawyers announced they had agreed to join forces in some contem- plated action which will be made public later. ( | one Dec. 31 (By A. P.).—Ar-. The purpose of the secret visit of Frank Navin, president of the De- troit baseball club, to Landis and President Johnson, of the American league yesterday, remained a mys- tery today. Landis admitted that they talked about the Cobb-Speaker charges of throwing a game seven years ago, but declined to give out any information. Major league executives were con- fronted today with a proposal to place | the game under Federal control. Rep- resentative Clyde Kelly, of Pennsyl- vania, said he was considering legisla- tion to create a government commis- sion to take charge of the game, and President Johnson declared he would welcome any legislation “which will make our national game clean and free from crookedness.”’ President John Heydler, of the Na- tional league, it was said, was not enthusiastic over such a scheme. Com- missioner Landis refused to comment on the proposal. Still another family skeleton in the baseball closet may “be disclosed if Landis accepted another offer to in- vestigate supposed crookedness.

As I see it, Judge Landis can only keep the game clean since his time of appointment as high commissioner, 1920. Why worry about years in the past?” Regarding the Cobb-Speaker case which is now attracting world-wide attention, Bucky asks: “Why hasn’t a public hearing . been forced, to either clear or incrimi- nate these stars?” Harris’ formal statement, made at the writer’s request, follows: “With the ushering in of the 1927 season, there still remain the unsettled charges against two of the game’s greatest stars, Ty Cobb and Tris Speak- er, in baseball’s latest scandal: Why hasn’t a public hearing been forced to either clear or incriminate these stars?

Really the only intimation of anything wrong came about in the O’Connell-Sand case at the close of the 1924 season, and in that case it was only an approach and never materialized. Personally I believe that Judge Landis has been largely responsi- ble for keeping the game clean. “Now comes Dutch Leonard who, I believe, every baseball player of today commonly would call a ‘squawker,’ and out of revenge opens up a sore spot that was well healed. On top of that, Swede Risberg, who everyone knows was implicated in the 1919 world’s series scandal, is being asked to make a confession. Can one who was let out because of supposed bad connections be relied upon in a question of honesty? “Judge Landis can only keep the game clean since his time of appointment as high commissioner and that term started in 1920. Then why worry about many years in the past? People of. to- day aren’t interested in what happened in 1919, and, furthermore, the honest players of today, and I am. confident every man in baseball today is that, should not have to suffer all the bad publicity’ that is being given to base- ball crimes of many years’ back. a@ manager, and now the Washington club, Mr. Clark C. Grif- fith, in my opinion, knows as much about baseball, past and present, as any man in the game, and J believe that he should be ed in to Help clear up this bad situation,” “4 3 with reports from Washington. that of Representative Clyde Kelly, Penn- sylvania, is considering the proposal of a Federal baseball commission to Con- gress. Johnson said he “stands ready and willing at all times to go before any Federal committee to help them in ironing out the subject.” He explained that some time ago.a Cleveland, Ohio, fan had written to him regarding Federal control of base- ball, and that he had answered saying that he heartily approved such a move, if it were feasible. Commissioner Landis, after reading stories from Washington about the proposed creation of a Federal baseball commission, gave no hint of what he thought about it. “I have nothing to say,” comment.

Some of his sensational stops had cheated the White Sox of runs. Zimmerman was a much faster man than Collins and under or- dinary conditions he could have caught him. He simply misjudged Collins’ start. I don’t think McGraw ever said ja word to Zimmerman about the~ play anybody. He came to the clubhouse crying.” Incidentally, Robertson shared honors with Zimmerman in taking the series “goat” title. He dropped two fly balls that paved the way for Chicago’s final victory. ——— D AMO ye = ND CABS POTOMAC LOWEST RATES im WASHINGTON Of “Fixed” 1917 Title Set Wave Robertson, batting hero of the idea that the Giant-White Sox series of that season was not on the level, when he learned today that one of the six had charged that all was not as it should was Heine Zimmerman’s famous act because Heine was more sorry than| doubtedly substitute freely.

Milam’s Lady Marie paying $26 to $2 was winner of the Southport aves which featured the closing day's program today. F. M. Kelly's Medley, the fnvorite, was s°c- ond and Marlboro third. The time was 1:13 2-5. Tomorrow the ponies wiil parade at the Fair grounds track, where @ 62-day meeting will begin. The start in the Southport was good, the field going away in good order. Red Grange cut out the early pace, leading by several lengths to the top of the stretch. At this juncture Dubois rushed Lady Marte to the front and in a hard drive Lady Marie won by a head. Medley beat Marlboro half a length for the place. West Hill, under Church’c good ride, won the opening event by half a length over Pure Dee with Hats Up third. The placing judges placed Driftwood Blaze, but’ he finished absolutely last .by fully fifteen lengths back of the néxt to last horse. It was an error. The field ran well bunched to the stretch when West Hill came from out ef the bunch and won in a drive by half a length. The 6 furlongs were run in 1:14 3-5 Mrs. €. Garrigan made it a double when Mollie Myhill, under light weight, defeated a good field of platers in the second event, a mile and a sixteenth gallop for all ages. Mollie Myhill was rated back of the pace, and in the stretch lit- tle Cooper let her step. The filly quickly ran into the lead, and in a drive won by a length and a half. Gettysburg. the early pacemaker, managed to last long enough to save the place by a head over Sorline. The favorite players had their first inning when Commissioner won the third event, a mile and a sixteenth, galloping. He won by a very small margin over Balboa with Pandosto third. Pillager opened up a wide lead in the first half mile and appeared as if he had the race sewed up. How- ever, in the next furlong he began to stop and, Commissioner .coming with a rush, won by a head. Balboa beat Pandosto a like distance for the place. H.. G. Bedwell’s Bulletin had an easy time of it winning the Omega handicap, a 6-furlong sprint. . He never was out of wraps and won galloping by two lengths. Smiling Gus -landed the place with Silver Song third a neck back. Mysterious, leading all the way, land- ed the purse in the sixth race. He paid $8.40. Optimist was second and Tim- _othy third.

P.).— If the 1926 sports whirl goes down as the greatest “dope demolisher” of any similar span « rd, its im- mediate successor; 1927, gives every promise of witnessing the greatest cam- paign of comeback in competitive history. - The debate as to whether Babe Ruth's salary for the new year will be $52,500 again, or $100,000 and the echoes of the Cobb-Speaker baseball scandal may provide interesting topics for the stove league, but there is more exciting spec- ulation in whether “Big Bill” Tilden and Helen Wills will come back to the tennis heights, whether George Von Elim can defend the amateur golf peak against the return attack of Bobby Jones, whether Rogers Hornsby will re- gain his old batting supremacy in the new livery of a New York Giant, how eight new major league managers will fare, and whether Jack Dempsey will bid again for the fistic crown that Gene Tunney took from him or whether Ma- lone, Sharkey or Delaney will furnish the major threat for “Gentleman Gene.” Just as 1926 has closed with 2 flourish, 1927 promises to lose no time gathering headway for another tournament of thrills... January provides a flying start with Willie Hoppe, the veteran cue master, seeking to regain the balk-line bill- iard crown from Erich Hagenlacher; Fidel La Barba defending his fly- weight title at Madison Square Garden against Elky Clark, and Tilden embarking on a European tour, invading the “back yards” of his foremost foes and 1926 conquer- ors, La Coste and Cochet, for the opening match of an effort to scale the tennis heights he held against all comers for six years. At the same time, Helen Wills, com- bining business with the exercise of her racket, has established winter headquarters in the East for the first time, intent upon starting the come- Back effort that critics expect to place her again at the top of American women tennis players, if not of the world, now that Suzanne Langlen has turned professional. A duel with the present champion, Mrs. Molla Mallory, is in prospect for Miss Wills, either at the Brooklyn Heights casino starting late in January or later, in March, at the national indoor championships in Boston. By February baseball major hosts will be cavorting in the South and on the Pacific coast in preparation for a season of as stirring promise as any has ever held forth. There has been an unprecedented shifting of diamond forces, climaxed by the trading of the star who led the Cardinals to their first pennant and world’s champion- ship,- Rogers Hornsby. Added to the Giants’ infield, replacing Frisch, Hornsby may provide the spark that will put John McGraw’s clan again into the thick of a National league pennant fight with the Pirates, Cardi- nals and Reds. The American league, with new managers at. the helm of five clubs, we will provide its full share of color and excitement despite the passing of Cobb and Speaker. There will be Eddie Collins, back with the Athletics at second base, and Bill Carrigan, manager of a_ world’s champion club in 1915-16, again at the helm of the Red Sox after ten years absence. Sisler, unburdened by managerial worries, will be out to regain the bat- ting title, while Babe Ruth will make another effort to break his home-run record unless handicapped by the ex- traction of more liveliness from the ball. The Yankees appear likely to have their hands full defending the league title against the Athletics; Cleveland and Detroit. Boxing has centered its main in- terest in the effort to pick a “logical” opponent for Tunney. There are many critics skeptical of Dempsey’s contem- plated comeback plans, but they do not include Tex Rickard, who seems certain that the erstwhile ‘“‘Manassas Mauler”’ will meet the winner of the promoter’s elimination tournament in July to de- termine an opponent for Tunney in September in New York. Jack Delaney, the French Canadian knockout artist, has an enthusiastic following confident he will be the man to battle Tunney for the world’s cham- pionship, but he may have to answer rebuttals from Jim Maloney and Jack Sharkey, of Boston, if not Dempsey and Paul Berlenbach. Meanwhile, Rickard’s rival, Humbert Fugazy, has hopes of matching Tunney and Delaney in the big bout of the year. Several other crowned heads of fistiana are uneasy. Tod Morgan, Pete Latzo and Jack Delaney domi- nate the junior lightweight, weiter and light-heavyweight divisions, re- spectively, but Sammy Mandell, the lightweight ruler; Mickey Walker, newly crowned middleweight king; Fidel Labarba of the fiyweights, and Charley (Phil) Rosenberg, bantam champion, face foes who may. bring abrupt ends to their reign. It may be an “off” year for golf, with an interval declared in Walker, cup competition while confiicting dates mark the American and British open championship. However, there will be plenty of native interest in the attempt of Jones to lift again both the open and amateur crowns, a feat he missed by a narrow margin the past season. Aside from the personal efforts of Miss Wills and Tilden, tennis interest will center in the strongest bid France has yet made to carry off the classic Davis cup team trophy held for seven straight years by the United States. The French, it seems, failed to win this coveted prize last summer because they struck their top stride too late. Profiting by this expereience, they ex- pect to be on the ground early next summer to seek the final overthrow of Tilden, Johnston, Wiiliams or any younger tennis blood called to the defending ranks. VA. U. SPORTS FLOURISH IN 1926 Cavaliers Second in Conference on Dia- mond and Track. ( : The University of Virginia had a successful yeay in athletics dur- ing 1926. In baseball and track, the Virginia team took second place in the Southern conference, in football the eleven tied for fourth place, and in basketball Virginia was eliminated from the conference tournament by North Carolina in the closest game played by the champions during the séries. Lacrosse and swimming were added to the list of intércollegiate sports dur- ing the year, giving Virginia a total of seventeen varsity and first year teams in competition during the twelve months. Football, baseball, basket- ball, and track are the recognized ma- jor sports and the minor sports are boxing, wrestling, tennis, crosS coun- try, lacrosse and swimming. In football the Virginians de- feated Washington and Lee, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Vir- ginia Military Institute, within the conference, tied Maryland and lost to Georgia und to Virginia Polytechnic Institute. During the regular season the Virginia eleven was high point scorer for the en- tire State. j Only Saniats Tech ‘ranked higher than Virginia in S. C. percentages for baseball last spring. Virginia won from Tech, 7 to 6, in the first of a two-game series and lost the second contest by the same score. Virginia also dupli- cated her, feat of 1925 by winning two out of three games in the North Caro- lina series. The Virginia boxers lost only one match, that to Penn State. Ring victories were won over W. and L., V. M. I., North Carolina, Colgate, Pennsyl- vania and Notre Dame, the Virginians taking every bout in the encounter with the South Bend team. ’ Virginia’s track team won’ second place in the conference meet, and Hutchinson, of the cross-country team, finished. first in the S. C. har- rier event, in which Virginia did not have a full team entered. The outstanding individual track performance of the year was the lower- ing of the indoor 130-yard dash record by Henry Cumming, who covered the distance in 131-5 seconds, in Madison Square Garden. Maurice ‘LeBauer won the metropolitan junior championship in the shot put. The national A. A. light-heavyweight boxing championship was won by Henry Lamar, a first-year student, who entered the professional ring after taking the amateur title. Officers Are Hosts In Gun Club Shoot The officers’ trophy shoot will be the regular Saturday event of the Wash- ington Gun club today at its traps at Benning road northeast. Four trophies will be awarded on the 100-target pro- gram, added bird system, based on 100 as a limit. Contestants will handicap themselves. The winner of high-gun will be en- titled to his choice of the prizes; sec- ond high,\second choice, and so on. The miss-and-out sliding handicap will be used to decide ties, ~ HARLOTTESVILLE, Va.,-Dec. 31.— HUB NET PAIR) SCORES IN DOUBLES Hill, Johnson Junior Winners; Coen Cops Boys’ Indoor Title. ALTIMORE, Dec. 31 (By A. P.).— Malcolm Hill and Henry Johnson, of Boston, won the national junior indoor tennis doubles championship today for the fourth successive year— a record for the event. The Boston pair’s feat eclipses the straight winning record made by Vincent Richards, when he held the junior singles title for three years. Eddie Jacobs, of Baltimore, and Al- phonso Smith, of Annapolis, were the victims of Hill and Johnson’s latest rampage. The set scores were 3—6, 6—4, 6—4, 6—2. The Bostonians won their first doubles: title in 1923, stepping out of their class to take it. They were then rated in the boys’ division. They dis- played superb teamwork today, and their familiarity with each other’s game told heavily in their favor. Johnson’s service was strikingly effective, also. The pair won nine games on his service alone. Jacobs and Smith showed flashes of bril- liant play, but their teamwork lacked the well-oiled efficiency of their opponents. Wilbur F. Coen, of Kansas City, national boys’ outdoor champion, added the boys’ indoor title to his collection when he defeated Sydney Wood, of, New York, in straight sets, 6—2, 6—4. Coen displayed cool generalship, out- guessing Wood repeatedly, and this, coupled with his accurate stroking, kept the New Yorker bounding about the court continually. Colonys Smother Iroquois Five, 59-13 Led by Korman and Felstein, who caged 24 and 15 points, respectively, the Colony quintet swamped the Iro- quois tossers, 59 to 13, ina Jewish Com- munity Center league game yesterday. Korman sank eleven field goals and two foul tosses, while his teammate regis- tered seven times from the floor and once from the 15-foot stripe. Essenstad was best for the scoring four field goals. Mt. Pleasant Quintet Beats Handley, 39-22 The Mount Pleasant A. C. defeated the Handley A. C. five yesterday by the score of 39 to 22. The winners are looking for games with 125-pound teams and arrangements may be made by phoning Columbia 8575-W. losers, OLYMPIC SENIORS DEFI.

Entries already made and horses already on the ground make it certain that the Hialeah races this year will eclipse any previous season in Flor- ida racing history ‘and will put this track definitely in the forefront of the great racing ovals of America. More than 800 horses, including the leaders of the greatest racing stables—- Sarazen, Blondin, Whiskery, War Eagle, Golden Prince, and others of their class—will guarantee to racing enthu- slasts a full share.of thrills. <« Among the famous strings early on the ground, in order to get steeds and jockeys alike accus- tomed to the course and acclimat- ed to Miami warmth, were those from the Whitney, Salmon, Keen and Camden stables. G. Frank Croissant, Florida sports-. man, has a line of 15 fast entries, led by Roycrofter, who made a notable bid for the $75,000 Coffroth handicap last season. The Laurel Park stud, owned by a syndicate of American and Eng- lishmen headed by John McE.

Opening day, January 13, will be fea- tured by the $5,000 Biscayne handicap, for which Mrs. Vanderbilt's Sarazen and .Harry Payne Whitney’s Blondin are rated favorites.

P.).—Rene La- coste, tennis champion of the United States and joint first-ranking player of France with Jean Borotra and Henri Cochet, under yesterday’s ruling of the tennis federation, is looking forward eagerly to Big Bill Tilden’s European invasion. Tilden is ext moxh France around the end of next month and is credited with the’ intention off competing in the Riviera tournaments,jthe French Hard- court championships at St. Cloud in May, and the British championships at Wimbledon in June. “We will try to make it. interesting for Big Bill,” said Lacoste... “I feel cer- tain he will be a tougher nut to crack in 1927 than he was in 1926, and wouldn’t be surprised if he trimmed u all here this summer.” Jacques Brugnon .somewhat ~sar- castically remarked, “It’s about time Tilden showed us something on the courts again, instead of im the news- papers with his pen or typewriter.” At any rate; the former champion is assured of a warm welcome both from officials and players if he comes to France, and the Riviera club man- agers are rubbing their hands in glee at the thought of the crowds his pres- ence will myiract. cat Central High Five Meets Alumnr Today Central High school’s varsity basket- ball team has one of the most difficult jobs of the season on its hands today in the annual game with the Central Alumni tossers in the school gymna- sium, starting at 2 o’clock.

THE WASHINGTON POST: ‘SATURDAY, A LO A OC A LT AT “Come unto me, all ye that labor ‘ind: are heavy laden, and I will give you rest."——Mat, xi:28. Our Spiritual Na tures S the magnet draws the steel, so the Divine Béing draws to Himself the heart.of man. In his youth man is quick to respond. In middle life, with his soul weighted down with the care of material responsi- bility, he responds less readily to this Divine impulse. In later life his respon- sive powers if unused have become lifeless and God means nothing to him. Such is the life story of the man who refuses to recognize his obligation to God for all the benefits and bounties of life which have been bestowed upon him without his either asking or seeking them. When we fully enter into the mere joy of living and respond to the wonder of fr iendship and the beauties of all the world about us, we are in reality reusing our spiritual nature in response to the magnetic appeal of God. When we shape our conduct in harmony with the highest moral stand- ards, we are really accepting the invitation of the Christ. Recognizing this Divine element in what we call our human aspirations, our spirityal power is awakened and we rise _to heights which hav e not before been contem- plated. The church through its various avenues is helping us to understand these better and higher things. The church is arousing the latent part of our spiritual nature that we may live harmony with the Divine Jaws and know the really worth while things in the world. Your Attendance.

CLEARING HOUSE MAKES UNPRECEDENTED GAINS All Financial. Institutions Re- port Good Year; Exchange Growth Continues. By F. W. PATTERSON. Another year of record breaking pros- perity came to a close last night with basic conditions fundamentally sound and with the prospects for the new year in Washington similar in many respects to those existing twelve months ago and bankers and business men predict present conditions promise to prevail in the commercial, banking and in- vestment circles. Gain in Bank Clearings. One of the most noteworthy_ features of the year was the unprecedented gain in bank clearings, a total of $1,392,- . §80,951.65 in checks passing through: the Washington Clearing House, a gain of $39,302,859.65 over clearings in 1926, when the total reached $1,353,278.092. It is interesting to note the steady growth in local clearings over the period of years from 1915, the first year for which records are available, an. anal- ysis of the figures developing an in- crease of $982,506,994.65 over December $1, 1915, when the year’s total was $410,073,957. Banks Report Prosperity. The Situation with regard to the financial institutions of the city is high- ly gratifying and all banks report having closed a prosperous year. While there were but two calls by the comptroller of the currency for statements of con- dition during the year, the last bcing as of June 30, deposits have climbed to record figures and the banking faciiities of the city have kept pace with the de- mands of their customers for excep- _ tional ‘service. Federal-American Moves. During the year the Federal-Amer- ican National Bank moved into its new building at Fourteenth and G streets northwest; the Chevy Chase Savings Bank completed and moved into a new building, and the Bank of Bethesda, with the completion of its building, gave to the Washington suburb a mod- ern and attractive banking plant. The Lincoln National Bank greatly improved its building both inside and. out by remodeling, the Bank of Com- merce & Savings now is completing extensive improvements to its building, and the Washington Loan & Trust Co. is erecting a handsome addition to its building at Ninth and F streets north- . West. ; Exchange Centinues to Grow. The Washington Stock Exchange has continued to grow in activity and is each day a busy trade mart. Prices have been strong throughout the year and most of the stocks ahd bonds have advanced steadily, while others are quite close to the levels obtaining a year ago, although if a broad average be taken, they are somewhat higher. Stocks of several companies have been admitted to trading on the local ex- change during the year, among them being Peoples Drug Stores, listing its preferred stock; Merchants Transfer & Storage, Federal Storage, preferred; Federal American Co., listing x» .com- mon; Washington Mechanics Mortgage Co., and Woodward & Lsthrop. . Bankers Association Active. The District Bankers association, whose year ends in June, has been most active in carrying forward the p outlined at the annual convention at/ Hot Springs in the.#ummer, and How- ard Moran, president, believes the work of the various committees now going on will result in much good and that the year of the association will ‘close —- on — for having achieved much p erally in hy banking gen y the Credit Is Big Element. A, brief review of the position and prospects of the important factors in our economic structure sheds some light upon what is in store for 1927.

C. Graham Declares 1926 Showed Satisfactory Volume of Trade. HOLDS WAGES ARE STABLE Edwin C. Graham, president of the Board of Trade, predicts a prosperous year for Washington’s wage earners and business establishments for 1927. The year 1926 was successful both from a business and wage-earning standpoint, according to Mr. Graham, adding that -with the increase in population that is steadily noted here and-the inaugura- tion of the government’s great building program, Washington should have a banner year of prosperity in 1927. Mr. Graham, in a statement yesterday, de- clared: “Looking back one yeer, it will be re- called that it was the general con- sensus Of opinion among business men that business for the first six. months of 1926 would probably be equal to that recorded in 1925 and that there was a general feeling that there would be a slowing up in the latter half of the year. Now that 1926 has passed, we Washingtonians know that the volume of business for the entire year of 1926 was as a whole satisfactory. “As we know, there have been some complaints in spots of small volume in retail Christmas sales, but there is no doubt that the majority of the business houses enjoyed an increase in the sum total of their business over December, 1925. “The building industry has recorded a banner year and satisfactory profits. Some hesitancy is apparent at the pres- ent time, which I believe is more sea- sonable than otherwise, and is but a temporary lull. Washington, in com- mon with other sections of the coun- try, has plenty of money for worthy enterprises. With the coming of spring the buying of homes will be resumed. The great governmental building plan, which will start in the spring, will take up the slack that now exists in the building industry, and I believe the people of Washington will be fully em- ployed. “There is no indication of any low- ering of wages. When every one is employed and wages are good, there. is sure to be good business. Washington is increasing in population continually and.more money will be spent. each successive year. “I expect to see larger and better business in the year 1927.” throughout the entire year,” says Spen- cer Trask & Co., in its forecast. We seem to have been creating wealth faster then we have been expending capital and, generally speaking, our present productive capacity in most lines is excessive. There is a proba- bility there will be a still more dis- proportionate demand for new money. Loans on securities have-remained fair- ly constant throughout the year. The country still is saving in increas- ing proportion to its total income. Savings depositors increased from 20,- 915,612 in 1920 to 43,850,127 _in 1925 and in the past decade the number of persons in the country holding stocks is said to have increased by 3,500,- 000 and bondholders by 2,500,000. It is estimated that our annual savings out of earnings amount to $9,000,000,- 000, not to mention an increased ap- preciation of assets and properties. New capital flotations for the eleven months ended November 30 amounted to only $6,762,976,408. It is anticipated there will be a continued and creasing volume of financimg represent ing “merely a shift of ownership from private to public control.” The efficiency of our railroads, declin- ing commodity prices, low inventories as a result of hand-to-mouth buying, greater - efficiency in manufacture, greater stability in operation; all these factors still are directly and indirectly increasing our credit supply. possible in- | ** CITIZENS: WEALTH HERE INCREASING, HYDE onto Secretary of C. of C. Praises Improvement in Year’s school Program. NEW INDUSTRIES URGED “The people of Washington, taken as a whole, have been exceptionally pros- perous during 1926,” Dorsey W. Hyde, jr., secretary of the Washington Cham- ber of Commerce, stated. “The city has the highest per capita income of any in the country. Their wealth per capita increased last year out of proportion to any city and their incomes were stable. The wealth of the city was not concentrated in the hands of a few, but was spread out over a large majority. The Washingtonians were thrifty during the year, but they bought more per capita than people in any other city. “The school system -was improved greatly during the last year. It is ap- proaching nearer and nearer to the model system. There was a slight shrink in the enroliment, but this state will not remain with the increasing population. “The problem of bringing more in- dustries to Washington is a job that faces the city in 1927,” he asserted. “It is true that'a good start was made during 1926, but the situation is still acute. A subcommittee has been ap- pointed to work in conjunction with other committees on this problem. “It is absolutely imperative that Washington have new industries. Every day the Chamber of Commerce receives handfuls of letters in which people request information about se- curing work in Washington. The chamber’s answer to them is not to come unless they have a definite trade jor unless they are _ self-supporting. There isn’t even enough work for grad- uates of our model schools. They have to go to other cities for work. “Washington has been dependent on the government industries too much, and it has been only recently that any effort has been made to bring industries here and make the city self-supporting. The thing that always has held Wash- ington back is the absence of sufficient opportunity for.employment. There is no overflow of persons out of jobs, but at the same time there aren’t any loose jobs. “Poverty in Washington virtually was nonexistent during 1926 compared with other cities. Since July, when the mother’s pension law was put in force, there have been only 49 clear cases found, and improvement over this number can be expected in 1927. “The criminal situation in Washing- ton was better during the year. Com- mercial losses from such causes were only of a petty nature. Crimes of the violent type are exceptional. Washing~- ton had only such offenses as could be expected.” LOADINGS OF FREIGH FOR YEAR SHOW GAIN Report Gives Approximately 2,000,000 More Cars Han- pe died Than in 1925. ing of revenue freight in car- loads durimg the year 1926, inclusive of the week of December 18, with compar- ative figures for the corresponding weeks in 1925: Week, December 4 Week, December 11.....

SAVINGS OF CITIZENS AT NEW HIGH RECORDS Bankers, It Is Believed, Will Show Material Growth Over Last Year. By HOWARD MORAN, President District of Columbia Bankers Association. An analysis of the business charts of years past would indicate that 1927 will be the beginning of a new curve in the cycle period, and for such cause a fore- cast based upon the business of the lat- ter months of 1926 is best. That general business is good is true in both industry and transportation, but with farm prices falling and build- ing slowing down the use of caution is advisabie in determining what 1927 has to offer. By having government agencies lo- cated in this city Washington enjoys a unique position; and this condition can not but -act as a stabilizer where there is indication of a rise or fall in business activities. , Offset by Government. Private building operations no doubt will be retarded to some extent during 1927, because of an overexpansion in certain lines, but- this condition will be offset in Washington to a large extent by the contemplated government pub- lic building program, which should provide employment for all classes of trade and material supply houses. The bankers of Washington should receive their share of this business and during the year should show material growth over 1926. The indication of the saving abilityof our local residents was brought forcibly to the front through the distribution of over $5,000,000 in Christmas savings funds, and reports would indicate that the club of 1927 will exceed that of other years. The percentages which people are saving out of annual earnings are mak- ing new high records, and there is no reason to feel that this will not con- tinue, into 1927. Capital to Continue to Grow. Washington is the Capital City of our country, and can not help but continue to grow. With its increasing popula- tion we can feel confident that the year 1927, from a local.standpoint, will be prosperous in character. If all of us use common-sense treatment in dealing with business problems profits will be such as to guarantee our further prog- ress. The year 1927 is the continuance of a new financial era in which -we are liv- ing, and those engaged in business through the use of sound business poli- | cies can not but have a productive year. Taliaferro Predicts Greater Washington th, “Washington is righting itself since the war period, like a ship after a storm at sea,” said District Commis- sioner Sidney F. Taliaferro. ‘“‘The ab- normal conditions are giving way to the operation of the old law of supply and demand. : “It is idle to regret, as some do, the passing of the small town spirit and atmosphere of 20 years ago. I believe that Washington, already a great city, is destined, as the capital of the na- tion, to grow as the center of things political, religious, scientific, literary and artistic, until it becomes a world model of beauty, culture and true greatness.” Petroleum Imports Reported Decreased Daily average imports of petroleum at principal ports for the week ended December 25, were 170,857 barrels, com- pared with 183,714 barrels for the pre- vious week and 195,822 barrels for the four weeks ended December 25. Daily average receipts of California oil at At- lantic and gulf coast ports for the 339 | week ended December 25, were 67,143, compared with 68,286 barrels for the previous week and 59,607 for the four "weeks ended December 25. PROSPERITY BASED ON NEW EFFICIENCY, SAYS J. W. O'LEARY Outlook Assured, He Declares, If Experience of Late Years Is Followed. DECLARES CONDITIONS WARRANT HIGH HOPES Holds Confidence in Business Grows and Self-Regulation Replaces Restrictions. An optimistic pitcure of the busineg situation as the new year begins is pre- sented by John W. O'Leary, president af the Chamber of Gommerce or the Unit- ed States. Despite depression in some major industries, the head of the coun- try’s largest business association sees @ higher degree of general prosperity in the country just now than has ever ex- isted in the past. Mr. O’Leary’s views are given in the January number of Nation’s Business magazine. His conclusions were reached after conferences with other business leaders and with government officials who have given study to business con- ditions. The unprecedented prosperity which the country has enjoyed for the last two years, Mr. O’Leary points out, has been marked by a paradoxical situation. The hard going which certain trades have had would, ten years ago, in his opinion, have brought on hard times in others. “Those who seem to see something unreal in our present prosperity,” Mr. O’Leary says, “overlook a number of things that have greatly changed our business philosophy in the last decade. “There seems to be no disagreement on the facts regarding fundamental soundness of business. Credit is ample for legitimate needs. Inventories are low. Economy in national government is releasing funds for reduction of debt and at the same time reducing taxation. Notwithstanding exceptional consump- tion of merchandise and extension of consumer credit, our savings are grow- ing. Confidence in the honesty and integrity of business is continuing and restrictive laws are giving way to self- regulation.

HIGH WAGES ARE CITED AS AID TO PROSPERITY Improved Laws Sought for Protection of Public and Home Owner. Building construction costs “proba- bly never will fall below their present level; not sufficiently, at least, to war- rant building and financial interests in postponing contemplatea construction projects,” in the opinion of William J. Tracy, secretary-treasurer of the build- ing trades department of the American Federation of Labor. In an article on the “Building Out- look for 1927,” published in the Jan- uary issue of the American Builder- Economist, published by the American Bond & Mortgage Co., Tracy said that high wages had not retarded building but had been a stimulant to national prosperity. He urged better building and said that labor fully realized the importance of cooperation with capital, adding: : “Throughout 1927 it will be my pur- pose to do everything that is humanly possible toward creating a feeling of sincere friendship and harmony be- tween financial and’ banking interests and the building trades department of the American FPederation of Labor. “When it is considered that construc- tion is one of the greatest factors of our national wealth—that building is preceded only by agriculture, among the industries of this country—it be- hooves all of the various elements, either directly or indirectly identified with the construction industry, to use every honorable means to promote its influence and prosperity. This is a duty which should be shared equally with the financial interests, which subp- ply the capital, the architects, the en- gineers, the contractors or builders and the building material interests. “The building tra stand for a bet- ter. building program; for improved building laws tection of the investing and home owner; for the legitimate builder; for the skilled and qualified mechanic; and, as a guarantee against inferior workmanship, for a safe, sanitary and durable building erected by master craftsmen. Naturally, they do not favor cheap construction or so-called ‘hurry- up’ jobs, for after their completion these prove unsatisfactory to their un- fortunate owners, are constantly in meed of repair and, in short, are a menace to the entire building indus- try. “They are opposed to destroying .the morale of the mechanics, who have served from four to five years as ap- prentices in order to become masters of their trades, by permitting unscrup- ulgus employers to compel them to in- stall or erect work in an inferior man- ner. Fortunately such employers are in the very small minority. The trades are aS much concerned about the me- chanical and trade skill of the mem- bership as the minister, the priest or the rabbi is about the morals of his congregation. “The executive council of the build- ing trades department has asked the cooperation of the affiliated interna- tional unions in the important matter of vocational education and appren- ticeship of the young men actually working at the building trades. In- stead of restricting apprentices, the trades want to supply the industry with as many new workers as the dif- ferent elements will absorb. “The building trades have been ac- cused wrongfully of limitation of out- put. There is ample evidence that the productivity of the building worker is constantly incrcasing, and during the last year it-has been an im nt fac- tor in keeping down the cost of con- struction.” The building trades employers view of the “Building Outlook for 1927” was expressed in the American Builder- Economist by A. W. Dickson, executive secretary of the National Association of Building Trades Employers, who stated that “another great year of building activity is in prospect for 1927, if or- ganized labor will assume a reasonable attitude and not attempt to further in- crease costs by agitation for wage ad- vances and the five-day week.” Public Tired of Prices. “The public is tiring of high build- ing costs, due chiefly- to labors’ con- tinued demand for increased wages and restrictions on production,” said Dick- son. “Uniess building wages are stabil- ized or reduced to a more moderate lev- el,” he continued, “there will be a real slackening in building and labor will find that it has killed the goose that laid the golden egg and before long will be clamoring for more work and an oppor- tunity to make a living. Neither wage increases nor the five-day week will be permitted to gain headway in 1927 if it is within the power of the building trades employers of the country -topre- vent it. ,The employers feel that lower. and codes; for the pro-' costs are necessary to stimulate a suf- ficient volume of building to keep the construction industry on a p us basis and the workers well employed. “The building trades employers are not trying to crush the building unions and have no desire to do so. They want to cooperate with labor and bring about @ period of stabilization in the indus- try that will be beneficial to the coun- try as a whole and all interests con- cerned. This, however, can only be done by mutual cooperation. “The building trades employers have ents with labor unions in many ‘the’ largest cities and in @ number of the smaller towns through- out the country, extending the major- ity of the present scales to 1928. This should be an insurance against further already high rates paid in the building BAPITAL'S PROSPERITY “LN TO COOPERATION R. V. Fleming Says Year’s Progress Is Due to Spirit of Good Will.

TO SHOW INCREASE BROKER DECLARES Difficulty in Securing 5 Per Cent Return on Investment Funds Is Foreseen. HOLDS PRESENT PRICES ARE COMPARATIVELY LOW Looks for Upward Trend in Many Preferred Stocks in Coming Year. That 1927 will produce a market of considerable speculative activity, Dut gradually devoting itself to securities known value, was the opinion ex- pressed by George B. Chipman, resident partner of Harriman & Co., when asked @ express himself with regard to the mew year stock markct. It is difficult to predict at any time as to what the market as a whole wiil do, as there are now more than 1,100 companies whose stocks are listed on the New York Stock Exchange, and more than 1,400 bond issues, and it frequently happens that the very thing imat makes for Prosperity in one class of securities works to the disadvantage of another. Under the circumstances. the market can only be analyzed by groups, accord- ing to Mr. Chipman, who said: “When there is a decrease in employ- ment, tobacco companies and the bread and biscuit manufacturing companies Rave always shown increased earnings. When men are not employed they smoke more, and the only observation in regard to the bread and biscuit man- ufacturing companies is that their Products are cheaper than other classes of food, and no one at the present time has noticed a reduction in the price ot bread, notwithstanding the decline fn the price of grain. - Lower Prices May Help. “Nor does it foilow in companies such as the railroads, whose earnings are ad- jJusted by commissions, that a decrease “It will probably be shown. that the public utilities companies will show earnings in 1927 exceeding those of the year just ended. ‘The same thing ap- plies to the transportation companies. Their rate of charge per person carried or for power served is fixed generally by commission or law, while the cheap- ness by which they can purchase ma- terial and labor will be shown in their net earnings. Then the surplus of many companies, is so large, and their earnings so much more in excess of the present dividends paid, that there can be a very decided decrease in earnings without endangering the present divi- dends for several years to come.” Loanable Funds Increase. There will probably be such an in- crease in supply of loanable funds in this country, during this period, it was pointed out by the local broker, that it will be very hard to secure a yield of as much as 5 per cent on an invest- ment. This is already showing in the bond market, and it will be followed in the stock market, particularly in those securities representing staple earning power:.and larger surplus. “It seems reasonable ‘to expect,” con- cluded Mr. Chipman, “that many of the present preferred stocks will ad- vance materially during 1927 and it is not reasonable to expect declines in common stock issues of many of the older industrial and _ transportation companies. Certainly with a 3 per cent money market ahead of us, there are few issues,that are not yet cheap, de- spite the prevailing opinion that the general list of securities is high.” Liberty Bond Demand Brings Trading Peak The demand of investors for Liberty bonds, presumably for funds released by the maturity of securities at the end of the year, anade yesterday’s market the biggest of the year in the turnover of government issues. The total was $2,855,500, and there has been no day of similar size in the Liberty bond market. since the latter part of last December. . Four issues established high records for the year.

Big Year in Quality Of Ads, Rankin Declares Users Realize Necessity of Knowing Consumers’ Angle —Great Strides Made by International Body— Value of Coolidge Indorsement Emphasized. A review of 1926 and the outlook tn 1927 from an advertising man s int of view is set forth inthe fol- wing article by William H. Rankin, president of the William H. Rankin o., of New York. It was broadcast Thursday night.” By, WILLIAM H. RANKIN. 1926 has been an eventful year for advertising and advertising men. From the advertising agency man’s stand- point, it has been a good year in vol- ume and quality of advertising. The number of new advertisers cre- ated during 1926 exceeded that in any previous year. Notably among these ‘were publishers of newspapers and magazines who realize now, as never before, that they must tell their story to the consumer, the retail dealer and the salesman who sells the goods ad- yertised in their publications, just as any advertiser who uses their medium. Advertisers realize more than ever before that they must know the ulti- mate consumer and they must know the facts from the consumer’s angle before their product may be adver- tised profitably. Zone advertising, in connection with mational advertising, has been used more than ever before, to the ultimate profit of the advertiser. Advertising agencies realize that they must have complete knowledge. of every yone in this ‘country before they can serve, properly, national advertisers, and the general trend of advertising agéncy service is to give their custom- ers service based on facts from men in their own organizations or associated organizations in the Eastern zone, the Southern zone, the Central zone and the Pacific coast zone. ; cis Advertisers realize that an agency can not plan an advertising campaign for the Pacific coast intelligently from their New York or Chicago office, but this-can be done working in close con- nection with their own or associated companies on the Pacific coast. The work of the International Adver- tising association, under the leadership of C. K. Woodbridge, president of the Dictaphone Corporation, of New York, has made more real progress during the last year than in any year during the last ten.

It makes new ithoughts, new desires, and new ac- tions. By changing the attitude of mind: it changes the material condi- tion of the people. “Somewhere I have seen ascribed to Abraham Lincoln the statement that ‘In this and like communities public sentiment is everythihg. With public sentiment nothing can fail; without it nothing can succeed; consequently he who molds public sentiment goes deeper than he who enacts statutes or pronounces decisions. He makes statutes and decisions possible’ or impossible to be executed.’ “Advertising creates and changes this foundation of all popular action, or public opinion. influehce in ado Formerly it was an tition was the of trade. Under the methods ofthe present day it would re appropriate to say that dorgement of advertising and, of course, knows that this indorsement is of in- estimable value, making 1926 the out- standing year in bringing advertising into its own. Just at this time it is great to have @ man of President Coolidge’s business sagacity and resourcefulness in the White House. With Mr. Coolidge at the helm we can look into 1927 with full confidence of continued prosperity. Every factor in business and agrftul- ture seems to point’the way to a safe, sane going-forward Of prosperity, and of course, naturally, advertising will help to not only cyeate this prosperity “but to insure it. / oe ee 2 ee ee oo ee a eo. 2 eee Canada, Australia, France, and for the | The French delegation under Mar- | shal Knecht was a very notable one, Automatic Block Equipment Put on 4,891 Miles of Trackage in 1926.) NEW TRACK 1,005 MILES: Chicago, Dec. 81 (By A. P.).—Rail- roads of the United States built more miles of new track in 1926 than in any year since 1916, in that the new track- age was in relatively long lines rather than in short extensions. Texas received the largest quota of the 1,005 new miles, a total exceeding by 361 miles the construction of 1925, and Florida was second. Texas has: ap- proved projects that indicate the State will again lead in 1927. A record was made in the installa- tion of automatic block signals, Equip- ment-for 4,891, miles of road not only exceeded by nearly 2,000 miles the 1925 figure, but passed the installation in 1913, which held the record. Railroads completed about 86 per cent of the automatic control installation ordered by the Interstate Commerce Commis- sion in 1922 and most of the installa- tion subsequently ordered in 1924, putting train control systems in actual operation on 59 roads. The railroads ordered 1,301 new loco- motives, comparing with 1,055 the year Before, but ordered only 67,029 freight cars as against 92,816 in 1925 and the demand for new coaches was less.

SHINGTON POST, SATURDAY, JANUARY 1, 1927. —_ CAPITAL OUTLOOK FOR YEAR OF 1927 5 HELD PROMISING _ Distribution of Tax Burden by City Authorities Declared a Vital Problem. ROBERT N. HARPER SEES STABILITY IN BUSINESS President of District National Bank Voices Optimism for- Future Washington. “As my optimism regarding Washing- tom has never waved in years past, there is certainly no reason for my be- img skeptical at this time as to what fe in store for the future,” said Robert N. Harper, presidént of the District Na- tional Bank, yesterday in speaking of the future of the city. “In my opinion the steady and con- tinuous growth of this city both in wealth and population is now resting upon such a solid foundation that its progress can not. be doubted or check- ed,”” continued the bank president. “It eecupies a most unique position in comparison with the other sections of the country.” Pointing to the lack of disastrous re- sults from floods, drought, strikes and shut-downs in the District and the as- surance of the stability of the normal government pay roll, which will con- tinue to grow as the developments of the country go on, Col. Harper declared, “we have every reason to believe that optimism will be our guide.” He predicted that this norma! ad- ' Vantage will be tremendously augment- ed during the next few. years by the] government building program, which will make Washington still more beau- tiful and attractive, and make it more desirable as a residential city for the retired business men of the country as their permanent future home. Revenue Presents Problem: “With these natural advantages for ereating wealth and increasing popula- tion, the necessity of securing adequate revenue to Keep pace with new condi- tions will be one of the troublesome problems for our city fathers to handle. The source from which our revenue will be derived demands most intelli- gent and foresighted consideration for _best results’ continued the. banker. “We should always bear in mind the important fact that levying taxes’ is only one part of a revenue program. Properly distributing such, and upon “property which should be sufficiently but not overtaxed in support of the city, is of prime importance made so by the probable reactionary effect if unjust to the taxpayers to any appreci- able degrees.” “If our methods are equitable, that is to say on lines always having in mind a program whereby we may aim te collect the largest amount of money By taxation with the minimum burden and least injustice. upon our people as a whole,” said Col. Harper in conclu- _ gfon, “then our march will be both on- “ward and upward, but if it is consti- tutionally unsound we must anticipate and accept the inevitable results.” - Henderson- Winder Co.

SUPPORT IS RECORDED “The consistent campaign for the mutual protection of legitimate busi- ness and the public from fraud and de- ceit has been steadily carried on in Washington during the year just end- ing. as is indicated by the fact that a total of 4,532 cases, inquiries and complaints were handled,” said Louis Rothschild, director of the Better Busi- ness Bureau. “The success of the movement, now entering its eighth year in Washington, is felt to be very gratifying in that advertising standards have been raised, @ more cooperative spirit between buyer and seller noticed and questionable se- curity promotions curbed. “Of the total number of cases handled, 2,521 were merchandise in- volving the accuracy of advertisements; 408 were complaints from members of the public received and handled by the bureau Office, and 1,603 were inquiries received as a result of the ‘Before You Invest—Investigate’ program. “Support both morally and financially has been increasing coming from the leading business institutions of Wash- ington, so that the bureau is facing 1927 in such a strong position that even greater results may be expected in the new year. The directorship of the board was again headed by Joshua Evans, jr., who was reelected to the position of chairman at the annual meeting in June. George Ostermayer is vice chair- man; F.

The success of- the work during 1926 can largely be attributed to these and other members of the’ board of trustees.” DOUGHERTY PICKS\BIG EVENT OF OLD YEAR Government Building Program Greatest Accomplishment, Says Commissioner. The $50,000,000 government building program was the outstanding event in 1926, according to District Commission- er Proctor L. Dougherty. “Contemplating in retrospect the ac- complishments of the year 1926,” he said, “there is one thing that, to my mind, stands out in greatest im- portance,-both to the nation and to the District of Columbia. I refer par- ticularly to the legislation by the Six- ty-ninth Congress, first session, author- izing $50,000,000 for the erection of Federal buildings in the District of Columbia. “It is entirely in keeping with the dignity of this city that its buildings, wherein are performed all the details of governmental functions, be of the finest; and it is of great material ad- vantage to the Capital of the nation that these buildings be erected to en- hance its beauty. The District of Columbia, therefore, will witness dur- ing 1927 the beginning of the plans for its further beautification and the inauguration of the constructive opera- tions incident thereto.” FIRE RECORD. . m.-—363 O street southwest: : . m.—2615 ; automobile. m.—1206 I street northwest; chim- Thirty-first street . m.—30 M street northwest; steam m,.—1676 Kramer street northeast; 730 p. m.—1117 New Hampshire avenue northwest; Norte 2:11 ps m.—1729 Ninth street northwest; paper. 5:45 p. m m.—Livingston road and First street southeast; automobile. 06 p. m.—I1¢ Irving street mie ee north- . base- | 1908 GREAT PERO UF EXPANSION HERE NV BUSINES AREAD Shopping Section Has Under- gone Transformation Scarce- | ~ ly Equaled in U. S. LARGER, BETTER STORES SEEN AS CAPITAL’S AIM Cooperative Move for Light Manufacturing Is Signif- icant Undertaking. The year 1926 has been a period of great expansion and prosperity in the business life of Washington. The busi- ness section has undergone a _ trans- formation during the past few months which is truly remarkable, the equal of which can be found in few, if any, other cities of the size of Washington. Larger and better equipped and stocked stores seem to be the order of the day» The business men have of one accord determined to make Wash- ington’s business section as attractive and as outstanding from a ‘business standpoint as the nation’s Capital is architecturally. Not only have the stores expanded rapidly and built attractive buildings but these business houses have~ been equipped with the most modern facili- ties for service that can be found in any city in the country. One of the significant undertakings is the combined cooperative effort by the trade bodies of the city and subur- ban counties, which has recently been inaugurated, to develop light manufac- turing of a character that will con- form with the plans for the develop- ment of the city and its suburbs by the parks and planning commission. Old Factory Idea Passes. The old idea that a factory necessarily must be housed in unsightly buildings and emit volumes of black smoke is rapidly passing. In many communities factories are now being housed in struc- tures that appear more like office or apartment buildings. In fact, there is no reason why most factories can not be built just. as attractive as other buildings that grace our city. As electric power can now be sup- plied here at a much lower rate than the average private concern can man- ufacture it, the necessity for power plants with high chimmeys Pe forth clouds of smoke has been elimi- nated. With its unusual transporta- tion facilities by water to the sea and by rail in all directions, and with plenty of land available along the ¢ail- roads, Washington has the opportunity to demonstrate the possibilities of mod- ern industrial development with a type of building that would add to the at- tractiveness. of the Capital. With the vast public. building pro- gram which Congress has recently in- augurated and the corresponding busi- ness development which has only just started, Washington business ans in- deed, a sonic future. rear of 1415 H street northwest.

x i - . THE WASHINGTON POST, S ~*~, CONDITION OF FARMERS 6 CALLED ENCOURAGING Agriculture as Whole Is Not in Distress, Says Chitago Trade Board Head. Special to The Washington Post. 'vicago, Dec. 31.—Agriculture’s whole fiela. is flooded with b.# t sunshine wit the exception of a dense shadow over\in ome corner, according to the outk }9k from the Chicago Board of Tradys windows. In, & New Year’s statement John A. Bunnell, president of the board, says that *’A single dark spot clouds the horizon of prosperity. It represents a part of agriculture, but the dark spot has been so enormously magnified that the public is left wondewng whether agriculture is an utter wreck. Certain- ly there is nothing dark in the future outlook of American agriculture as a whole.” . “Brushing aside the gloomy picture conjured up by some farm leaders, it is easy to find indisputable facts that are in no way disturbing. These facts show that agriculture as a whole is not in distress,’’ said Mr. Bunnell, who thinks that the corn belter’s woes have been magnified out of all proportion to the facts.”’ Mr. Bunnell believes that the wide- spread confusion over the corn surplus situation, resulting from the “noise of the self-appointed spokesmen,” has cre- _ated a condition “which discourages rather than encourages investment and, incidentally, depresses land values as well as crop prices.” But the general underlying conditions in the corn belt, he finds, are better than last year. In referring to the cotton planter’s situation the board of trade head said that the whole story was to be found in the fact that “the prosperity was too great and growers increased their acreage from 30,000,000 in 1921 to 47,- 653,000 acres this year.” His figures show that 58,000,000 bales of cotton were produced in four years and in 40 consecutive months the ayv- erage farm price of cotton never sunk below 20 cents a pound, and much of the time was higher. “The ridiculous game of chasing prices with acreage and producing more of a commodity than the world can use should be stopped,” adds Mr. Bun- nell. He figures that the total return on the 1926 wheat crop has been larger than last year. Although wheat prices have been lower’ than a year ago, corn and cats, he points out, up to early winter ranged about 5 cents a bushel above last year’s price in Chicago. | ASSOCIATION HEAD | HOWARD MORAN, president of the District Bankers As- sociation, and vice president of the American Security & Trust Co.

It is not good for business to be scattered over a large,area. It is more profitable to have it concentrated. “Every figure in an analysis of Wash- ington during 1926 points to prosperi- ty. spots, but the general conditions ex- tremely were favorable. The printing industry here is one of the largest in the country and it has done an enor- mous business during the last year. There are 15 or 20 magazines printed here whose circulation runs into the millions,’’she said. “Then, too, there are the bakery bus- iness and the ice cream manufacturers. Both have done a surprising amount of business during the year. Their turn- / over was quick and consequently their profits good. The soft «c:rink business is another growing es whose future is assured. “It has got to such a state that near- ly every large concern has a national representative in Washington,” he said. “As the others come to the realization of the necessity of having theirs here more persons and more capital will be brought: to Washington and more jobs opened.” Leese declares. Touching on the labor conditions in the city for the past year, Leese said everyone had plenty of work and that the labor market was amply taken care of for the next five years. “The condition of farmers surround- ing the District was’ much improved during the year,” he said. “The new roads opened. up made the markets more accessible. “The building program of 1926 was only a fraction behind the banner year 1925, if any.” There may have been a few dry} lh ee aaa LIEU.

ees. sie a’ THE WASHINGTON POST, SATURDAY, JANUARY 1, 1927. ay Sea STEPHAN PREDICTS IMPROVED DEMAND FOR LABOR IN 1927 Former Head of Merchants and Manufacturers Sees Brighter Money Market. PROPHESIES INCREASE IN CITY’S POPULATION Declares Year Has Done Much for Beautification of Na- tion’s Capital. Though business conditions will re- main relatively good during 1927 there will be unmistakable tightening of the money market, Brig. Gen. Anton Ste- phan, former president of the Mer- chants and Manufacturers association predicts. There will be no great upheav- als, he stated, but an adjustment of supply and demand is taking place. For this reason, he asserted, mer- chants should buy conservatively dur- ing the year. They should take careful stock of their needs and buy accord- ingly. They should not spludge and an as has been the tendency, he said. The public will buy increasingly upon the deferred payment plan, which, if a - budget system is maintained, is an ex- cellent method, he stated. Wholesale increases in salaries, especially in the building trade, will not be as common during 1927 as they were in 1926, he said. The average income during the last few years was greater, but the cor- responding decrease in the value of the dollar did not improve‘the ratio, he ', Seid. The employment condition, he pre- dicted, would improve. The $100,000,- 000 the government will spend’ will bring more people to Washington and increase the consuming power. of the residents, he continued. The opening of headquarters by national businesses in Washington will bring more people here and will increase the number of employment opportunities, he added. HEADS EXCHANGE | ’ ' CHARLES .CARROLL GLOVER, ZJr., president of the Washington Stock Exchange, and member of the firm of Glover & Fliather, investment bankers a steady, consistent and permanent in- crease, he stated. The beautification of Washington was one of the most important steps taken during the last year, he asserted. The action taken by the National park and planning commission, the fine arts commission, and Congress is to be commended, he _ stated, and _ great strides in the making of Washington a-better, a greater, and more beautiful city can be looked forward to with cer- tainty in the near future, he stated. It would be well if the entire north side of Pennsylvania avenue from the Capitol to Seventh street were taken over by the government as well as the Mall, he declared. I confidently believe it will be done in future years,” he added. A community .chest -is needed, Gen. Stephan indicated. Business concerns have been called upon frequently and have contributed generously this year, but the need-of pooling all money so that donations can be distributed bet- ter and so that more people can con- Washington’s increase in population | tribute instead of the burden falling during the last year was good and will| upon a few becomes more apparent. continue so. ment was not a mushroom growth, but ACHIEVEMENT 1S HISTORY OF INSTITUTE’S CHAPTER Enrollments and Performance Have Been Large Since Formation in 1901. MANY SUBJECTS. TAUGHT “The history of Washington chapter, American Institute of Banking, has been an interesting one from its incep- tion, revealing many accomplishments on the part of the men who have guided its destinies during the past quarter of a century,” said E. J. Mc- Quade, a past president of the chapter, and now vice’ president of the Liberty National Bank, in discussing the achievements of the local organization. Organized in 1901, one year after the birth of the national organization, the chapter has gone ahead in both membership and class enrollments, until now it is one of the outstanding chapters of the institute. - The first président of the Washing- ton chapter was W. F. D. Herron, now assistant treasurer of the Union Trust Co. He was followed in succession by George W. White, George O. Walson, Francis R. Dooley, John Poole; W. McK. Stowell, E. Percival Wilson, Arthur B. Claxton, Charles H. Doing, jr., Joshua Evans, jr., Ernest E. Herrell, E. 8. Wolfe, F. B. Devereux, W. W. Spaid, Harry V. Haynes, Roy L. Neuhauser, Edward J. McQuade, Victor B. Deyber, Charles D. Boyer, Wilmer J. Waller, W. A. Dexter, James C. Dulin, jr., Harold W. Burn- side, R. Jesse Chaney, and T. Huntom Leith, who is now in Office. In _its early history . Washington chapter conducted but oneducational class a week. The educational phase of the work has grown year by year and at present classes are conducted embracing the following subjects: Bank- ing fundamentals, standard banking, standard economics, commercial and negotiable instruments, credits, investments, accounting, public speak- ing and trust functions. The chapter has maintained a high standard in the selection of its instructors and only men well qualified in their respective subjects have been named to the fac- ulty.

BEGINS ITS SECOND CENTURY 1927 Has Special Significance to Carrier After Year~ of Prosperity. Daniel Willard, president of the Bal- timore & Ohio railroad, said: “The year of 1926 just ended has been one of the most satisfactory in the history of-the Baltimore & Ohio Co. Business has been good, employ- ment upon the whole has been steady, wy we all have much to feel thankful or “The new year of 1927 will mark the one hundredth anniversary of the Bal- timore & Ohio railroad. It is a no- table event, not alone in the history of the Baltimore & Ohio Co., but also in the history of our country, for in our country’s development the railroad has played a most important part. “The real significance of 1927, how- ever, is not that it completes the first century of the Baltimore & Ohio serv- ice, but that ‘it begins the second century. The next hundred years will undoubtedly afford opportunities for service and accomplishment which will dwarf those of the past and call for the best-that is in all of us.” a |BUILDING PROGRAM TO AID EMPLOYMENT: 3 Labor Department Service Says Government Consiruc- tion Will Help in Capital. — Proposed erection of public buildings in Washington this year will do much to relieve unemployment among skilled and unskilled construction workers, ac- cording to a 1927 forecast made by the employment service of the Department of Labor. Street work and other municipal im- provements will offer employment to a large number of men throughout the year, the department says. Washington not being an industrial city it is pointed out that the labor demand comes necessarily from the bakeries, laundries, ice cream factories railroad terminals and retail establish- ments. From all reports the depart- ment expects no increase in the de- mand for these workers in 1927 over that which existed in 1926. Queen Mary Does_Not Smoke.

President, Famous Players-Lasky Corporation. This country is in good economic condition, and in 1927 I think its prosperity will be on'an even sounder basis than ever before. The reason for this, to my mind, is a change in the mental attitude of business concerns . and individuals themselves. During the war and in the years that have followed, the United States went through a period of unprecedented: activity. People were making money fast and spending it at the same pace. In the last two years, however, particularly in the year now ending, we have been. husbanding our re- sources, we have become more con- servative. This applies not only to industrial and .commercial enterprises; it is also true of most of our citizens in the handling of their own private affairs. They are saving more, and when they spend money, they do so more intelligently; they demand greater value in return. . Business is using more care and foresight in its expansions, it is watching its future commitments with a more jealous eye. In other-words it is consolidat- ing its position with the thought of holding on to the gains it has made. To me, this augurs well for the con- tinued prosperity of the country, and hardly expect to enjoy indefinitely the unusual combination of high business activity and abnormally low money rates. By R. L. AGASSIZ, President Calumet & Hecla Consolidated Copper Co. and Copper & Brass Re- search Assoctation. Copper is one of those American in- dustries which looks to Europe to con- sume a substantial proportion of its product. Therefore any improvement in the general European situation must be viewed optimistically by us. Within the past few weeks we have had en- couraging evidence that the larger for- eign nations, which the war left in chaos, are emerging from their diffi- culties, and this certainly augurs well for that section of the American in- dustrial organization which has been built up to its present proportions on the basis of a fixed European demand for its products. The world’s ecohomic structure is so sensitive that we can not always be sure what a week or a month will bring forth, but judging by conditions as they now present themselves, I kave every confidence that the coming year will be a prosperous one for the copper industry.

TEAGLE, President Standard*Oil Co. N. J. With a perversity that was nicely timed, mature released a fresh flood of new crude oil production last summer just as a large section of the public had become convinced that we are prac- tically at the end of our oil resources. There is no major business activity so hard to forecast as crude production. No sooner do experts complete their charts and commit themselves to pre- dictions than some _little-considered area is sure to break loose with a lot of oil. In the past year there was good rea- son in the early months to look for a substantial decrease for the twelve months’ period, compared with 1925. The first six months’ loss amounted to 22,000,000 barrels. Now it appears that not only has the deficiency of the first half year been overcome by increased production in later months, but it is a practical certainty that the total yield for the full year 1926 will exceed that for 1925 by a substantial amount, and in so doing establish another new high record for the United States, above 765,- Listed stocks and bonds bought and sold on Commission.

By CHARLES E. MITCHELL, President National City Bank of New York. ‘ The year 1926 has been one of com- parative stebility in banking. For over @ decade the financial world has been tossed about in a sea of alternating in- flation and deflation caused by war and great shifts of gold on a scale here- tofore unheard of. Gradually the ef- fects of the war are clearing away, and banking cenditions the worid over are getting back more nearly to normal. In this country commercial demands have shown a healthy expansion during the past year, in keeping with the ac- tivity of industry, but there is no evi- 000,000 barrels.

For all the light crudes pro- duced in Kansas, Oklahoma and Texas an average of 39 cents a barrel more has been paid so far this year. Gain Due to 3 Major Pools. The remarkable gain in production has been due mainly to the develop- ment of three major pools in the latter There are Panhandle and Spindleton in Texas and Seminole How important they have been in effecting the change in the statistical position may be judged from the fact that they were doing only 70,000 barrels on July 1 and by Thanks- giving were producing 367,000 barrels half of the year. in.

By ALFRED P. SLOAN, Jr. President of the General Motors Corporation. There is more reason to expect that 1927 will be another good year for the automobile industry—perhaps not so good as 1926, but a satisfactory year. It must be borne in mind that 1926 had exceeded any previous year in the volume of automobile production and sales; that domestic consumer demand has broken all records and that export business has been the largest in history. During this year something over 4,500,- 000 passenger cars, trucks and buses were produced in the United States and Canada, or some 6 to 7 per cent more than in the previous record year of 1925.- Indeed the past four years have been a period of very satisfactory auto- mobile volume, the total-output of the industry in the United States and Canada in these four years having been about 16,500,000 vehicles, or an aver- age of approximately 4,125,000 a year. i It now seems re&sonable to expect that the 1927 production will equal if it does not exceed, this four-year average. It must be recognized that the volume of replacement automobile business is increasing rapidly and that the overseas demand is steadily expand- ing, and that additional volume from these sources in 1927 will go far to- ‘ tive interests. With the consumption of copper in the United States con- tinuing to increase, there is little at home to cause apprehension. By PATRICK E. CROWLEY, President of the New York Central Lines. _ The railroad situation as a whole is more satisfactory tran it hasbeen in a long time. As the roads have prospered they have been able to give better service, and there is on the part of the public, the shippers and the com- panies a growing feeling of reciprocal satisfaction over the situation. ‘The most pressing problem confront- ing the railroads is the necessity for making, pursuant to the jurisdiction of the public authorities, expenditures for improvements which do not enkance the capacity .of the property and do not in themselves yield a sustaining re- turn. The railroad is viewed from a regulative and legislative standpoint as a public institution from which it seems expedient to exact many things beyond those required to convey per- sons and property; yet it must survive as a business, if it survives. This is an anomaly which requires that the busi- ness, if business it is, must absorb bur- dens as a part of its current existence from which other forms of enterprise are immune. The indications are, kowever, that 1927 will be a year that might be termed generally satisfactory so far as the railroads are concerned, in that the prospects for the volume of traffic do not, at this time, present any unusual HARRIMAN & Co.

From the information we can ce of borrowing to excess. In fact, _ he conspicuous feature of the present « _ .the aL wet aa + _ Supply of | employed situation has been the ability of busi- mess concerns to finance themselves with comparatively little recourse to bank credit. Such increases as have occurred in commercial borrowing have been offset in part by a decline in bank investments and security loans, so that the year closes with but a moderate advance in total bank credit outstand- ing over the levels ‘prevailing at the Deginning of the year. Concern has been expressed in some quarters over the present large holdings of banks of securities and collateral loans which are ineligible for rediscount of pledge at the reserve banks. The expansion of these holdings in recent years has been due largely to the fact that gold imports have caused supplies of funds to igcrease faster than they could be absorbed in the ordinary com- mercial channels, so that banks have had no other alternative than their employment in the security markets. The problem of maintaining liquidity should engage the attention of all bankers, but there is no evidence that banking position thus far has been fred. If we do not get any more the savings of the country will absorb this large floating securities, and banks will in- crease their holdings of commercial paper. : Bank Reserves Not Drawn On.

We This is mainly accounted for by the rapid,spread of Yirst nine months of the year there was produced in the country’s refineries by cracking 2 total of 64,700,000 barrels of gasoline against 50,140,000 for the correspond- ing period of 1925. The actual increase in gasoline obtained by cracking was No Drastic Change Expected. Although there is some uncertainty as to what the level of general busi- ness activity will be next year, there appears to be little likelihood that any drastic change will take place, and that at worst nothing more than a moderate slowing down need be anticipated. This view is predicated upon the fundamen- tal soundness of the present situation. Banking and credit conditions are very favorable, with the available supply of credit large and interest rates relative- ly easy; there has been no price infla- tion, inventories have not been piling up; the efficient operation of the rail- roads makes prompt delivery of the ma- terials and finished products possible; agricultural purchasing power, while perhaps somewhat less than a year ago (primarily because of the decline in the price of cotton), is on the whole good, and the present volume of industrial employment and the current level of wages promise the continuanca, at least over the near future, of a satis- factory purchasing wer from this source. The building situation, because of the high level of activity in this in- dustry, holds an element of uncertainty, and the possibility of a decrease in building operations must be recognized. It is not unlikely, however, that any sharper drastic reduction of building will occur next year. In view of the foregoing, I think that we may look forward to a year of good general business,.even though it possibly will not be quite so good as 1926. And the same applies, in my judgment, to the *»"'tomobile business. By LAMMOT DUPONT, President E. I. duPont de Nemours Co, As the year 1926 draws to a close, we do not see any element in the in- dustrial or economic situation which . Of large. scale uld~indicate-trouble or. depression gather, there are no bad spots in busi- ness in our territory. There has been a little slowing up in some lines, but, generally speaking, the outlook is favor- able. By F. EDSON WHITE, President of Armour & Co. The year 1927 dawns without any clouds in the business sky. Of course, we may find some before the year is out, but there is nothing at the mo- meént to indicate other than a good year ahead. Business is on a new plane. Specu- lation has been minimized by an evolu- tion in trade—an evolution which for lack of a better name we call hand-to- mouth buying. Few, if any, surpluses have been built up, and consequently there is little prospect that there will be any unusuaily dull periods. After all, the greatest factors in assuring prosperity are steady employment and stable prices. ae Ihe packing industry rather ex- pects to handle a little more product in 1927 than in 1926. The first half of the year should be about on a par with the like period of 1926, but during the second half it seems probable that there will be greater. receipts of live stock resulting from the size and condition of the last corn crop. Much of this corn was not suitable for hold- ing and will have to be fed. That spells heavier steers and more hogs. The necessity for cheaper meat is gradually taking Europe out,,of Ahe market for American meat cts. Europe is raising hogs in everi ing numbers, and it is idle to contemplate an increase in export business while hog and pork products remain at pres- ent price levels. Any pork products marketed abroad will have to meet stiff price competition. Because of this, the American meat- packing industry is confining its opera- tions largely to the American trade and attempting to improve its manufactur-. ing and merchandising methods.

NATION’S BEST FARMS NEAR, GANS DECLARES Refers to Appropriation to Make Washington Most_- Beautiful City. ,“ ‘of a Isaac Gans, treasurer of Saks & Co., declares Washington is on the verge of a great developing period. The financial status of its business and in- dustries, together with the ever-in- creasing population, which is caused by the rapid growth of the government departments, points to one of the fair- est eras in the history of the city, he asserted. “To my mind,” he stated, “there is no doubt that the city of Washington will increase in population steadily, and it won’t be long before it reaches the 1,000,000 mark. The very fact that every large organization throughout the country either maintains its headquar- ters here or is contemplating doing s0 helps to substantiate this heer cers tion. “This is a city where all avenues lead to art, science and government de- partment work, and it also is destined to become the most beautiful city in the world. The realization of this fact will not be many years hence as we have the fine arts commission and the. city planning commission and these bodies have been doing everything in their power to lay out a city which will be beautiful beyond imagination. The government already has mapped out an appropriation of $50,000,000 to be spent on public buildings, and when they’re in place they will be surrounded by. everything that would beautify them as far as grounds, are concerned. Facteries Employ Many.’ “Relative to commercialism, we already have here stores that compare with establishments anywhere in the United States. We have factories that employ | a large number of help, and these will | not mar the city either in appearance or through the smoke nuisance, as the time has come when they are using electric power. ~» “We have here in the government or District employment more than 100,000 persons who receive. their salaries regu- larly each month, and besides these there is the wealthy class of persons. “All of the above helps to assure the financial standing of this. wonderful city. The banks have been growing more prosperous each and every year and the outlook is most encouraging. “We have right at our own doors, so to speak, a wonderful farming country, both in Virginia and Maryland. It has become known that im. and around Frederick, Md., are the most prosperous farms in the country, rivaling those of California. “Business has been prosperous this year and it shows an even better out- look for the future. unemployed in the city of Washington is very small and always has been so, which makes Washington different from other cities which depend solely on manufacturing. “The individual citizens of this city are in a more prosperous condition than they have been in years and this city presents more opportunities for the young person than it ever has. “The necessity for more government buildings and more room to build them has necessitated the lawmakers to look for locations, and in selecting the sites for these buildings they have decided on the south side,of Pennsylvania ave- nue. As these buildings grow nearer completion the opportunities for stretching the dollar will increase by reason of furnishing more openings for employment.” Steam Under Paving ‘ Sometimes Is Peril New York, Jan. 1 (By A.

POWER Commission’s Figure on the Kansas City Southern Is Set Aside. Kansas City, Dec. 31 (By A. P.).—A decision striking at the power of- the Interstate Commerce Commission was handed down here today by -Federal Judge Kimbrough Stone, of the United States court of appeals and Judge Mer- rill E. Otis and Judge A. L. Reeves, of the Federal District court, when they set aside and vacated an order by the commission placing a valuation of 349,- 000,000 on the Kansas City Southern Railroad for rate making purposes and perpetually enjoined the commission from fixing any valuation on the rail- road’s property. The court’s order was in two parts, thé first part set aside and vacated an order issued by the Interstate Com- merce Commission in 1919 and amend- ed in 1924, fixing the valuation of the Southern at $49,000,000 for rate making purposes. The second part granted the company’s appeal for a permanent in- junction against the commission’s fix- ing any valuation of its property. Judge Stone explaimed in making the decision that he understood both sides had expressed an intention to appeal and that his ruling was given to expedite an appeal to the Supreme Court of the United States where simi- lar cases from the Pacific coagt will be argued soon. The railroad contended: that’ various important items were omitted from the commission’s valuation of its property, which it placed at $65,000,000. New York, Dec. 31 (By A. P.).--Of- ficials of the Atlantic ‘Coast Line rail- road announced today that the com- pany. would not accept the tentative valuation on its properties recently fix- ed by the Interstate Commerce Ccm- mission as a fair value, and that it hoped- to obtain material increases in the values of its-lands and other items. The commission’s valuntion, as of June 30, 1917, on the property of the rail- road owned and used in transportation service alone was placed at $152.765,- 705, plus $4,110,613 for noncarrier physical property.

Many Washingtonians will remember how they felt in the days of feverish activity during the war—that Washing- ton had reached a peak and could never be quite so active again once the war was over. To find that today Washington has 60 per cent more telephones in service than there were in the busiest times of the war period is just one more indication of the tremendous de- velopment that has gone on in the Dis- trict of Columbia since that time. With 126,800 telephones in service at the beginning of 1926, Washington was one of the most highly developed telephone cities of the world. During the year 9,200 telephones were added to the system here, so that Washing- ton now has 136,000 telephones—one telephone for every 3.7 people in the city according to an announcement just made by officials of the Ches- apeake & Potomac Telephone Co. Rapid as has been the increase in the number of telephones, the number of messages handled daily is increasing at a still greater rate: Washingtonians now use the telephone on an average of 570,000 times daily, which is an in- crease Of about 12 per cent over the daily average for 1925. Since January l, 1926, the telephones here have increased something over 7 per cent. New Buildings Erected. The company is constantly making additions to every part of its plant to care for the telephone growth... New buildings have been erected and old ones enlarged. New switchboards and switchboard additions have had to be provided and thousands of miles of additional wire have been placed in the distributing plant which connects the telephones to the various central offices. During 1926 such work in Washington , involved capital expendi- tures of $4,05 'tirements amounted to $1,140,000. Among the important developments of the year was the purchase of several pieces of real estate on which exchange or office buildings will be constructed as required. Outside plant installed during the year included extensive additions to the underground conduit and cable system, pole lines, and aerial cable and wire plant. In addition to the routine work which is being carried on continuously the major projects included the placing of 126 miles of underground conduit, about 100 miles of cable and 1,500 | poles. Of the total cable mileage placed in Washington last year, 37 miles were strung overhead on pole lines, while 93 miles were placed in the conduit system under the city’s streets. This means an _ increase during the year of nearly 100,000 miles of telephone wire in cable. 19,000 Were Disconnected. The net gain of 9,200 telephones dur- ing the year meant installing 28,000 stations and disconnecting 19,000. In other words, it was necessary for the company to install three telephones to make a net gain of one. In addition the company changed the location of more than 11,000 telephones. One of the outstanding features of the telephone company’s accomplish- ment last year was the speeding -up of its long-distance service. A new operat- ing method, known as combined line and recording, was placed in effect early in the year which greatly increased the speed on long-distance and toll calls. During the year a complete revision of the classified section of the tele- phone directory was made, which makes the listings in that part .of the book very much easier to find. This’change has proved of special interest to visitors from out of town who are anxious to trade in Washington. Since the revi- sion of the Washington directory this practice has been extended to other cities where telephone directories con- tain a classified business section. 1926 PRICE RANGE OF STOCKS (CONTINUED FROM PAGE 11.)

BANKER AND LAWYER AID IN COOPERATION As Consequence More Trusts ‘Are Written Now in City; Charities Benefitted. By WILLIAM MONTGOMERY, President, Acacia Mutual Life Assecia- tion, Washington, D. C, Like most other business activities, _life¢ insurance showed marked progress uring the year 1926. Acertain measure of advancement is expected in almost any line’ of busines where conditions are not positively adverse. The progress achieved in the life insurance field dur- ing the year just past, however, has been murh more than what might be termed the perfunctory kind. It has been notable enough to justify the statement that it has been the best in the history of the business. Development of life imsurance, as many other departments of endeavor, can be divided into two principal chan- mels—the actual volume of business handled as demonstrated in the statis- tics revealed by the various companies, Gnd its constructive helpfulness and Service to the home, to business gen- @rally, and to the nation, which is not @videnced in cold figures. Indeed, while his latter phase of it is intangible, it none the less very positive and bene- | Aicial in its effect upon society as a Whole. Of the latter type of progress is the establishment of closer contact between e insurance man and the public, and tween the insurance mand and those megaged in other fields which are close- ly related, such as the banker and the lawyer. Much depends upon the effec- fiveness of these contacts since. they bpen greater and fuller opportunities for the service which the insurance fran is able to offer. Bankers Taken to Insurance. It is highly gratifying to see that fhis intangible progress has kept pace th the development of the tangible e. This is evidence by the height- ened interest which the bankers are taking in insurance. Particularly does this apply to the trust companies, gince it is this type of banking insti- tution which is capable of performing many services for the public in co- Operation with the insurance man. There are many more life insurance ¢rusts being written in Washington as @ result of such closer cooperation. In the past this type of insurance business has been rather inactive, but now it is disp'aying a virility which portends considerable advantage for everyone comcerned. Several banks have shown 4 Geep interest in the life insurance trust even to the extent of publishing litera- ¢ure especially prepared to inform their trons of its advantageous features. Charitable and religious institutions appear as striking beneficiaries_of the insurance trust, which is being develop- ed with. more attention to the needs of these types of beneficiary. The in- surance man is looming in the District of Columbia, and elsewhere, as the one who is well equipped to assist these organizations which are laboring im the interest of humanity. Goes Out to the Public. The banker and the lawyer, of course, are equally capabie, but they are dif- ferently situated. .They must wait until their clients come to consult them. The insurance man, on the other hand, goes out to the public, and constantly is{ discussing not only protection to the Igeme and family, but the ever-impor- tamt question of disposal of this world’s goods with large numbers of persons day in and day out. In advising them con- cerning the orderly arrangement of their affairs, he is in an excellent posi- tion to dictate the remembrance of charitable or religious bodies in the preparation of a will or the acquisition of the insurance trust, which opens a mew avenue for directing how one’s possessions shall be distributed in the event of death. Many persons who desire special dis- position of their property are served by the insurance trust. By means of it they can confer certain benefits on de- ents during their lives and at some e time have the property pass on to aid a highly laudable project. Statistics published by the Life In- surance Sales Research bureau of Hart- ford, Conn., credit. the District with an | increase of 11 per cent of life insurance business for the first ten months of 1926, as compared with the correspond- period of 1925. This is more sig- icant than it appears at first glance, Since the figures are not all- inclusive but cover only 81 large com- panies, which report to the bureau. In- asmuch as they had more than fcur- fifths of the total legal reserve, ordinary life insurance on January 1 last, these statistics, while not complete, serve as a satisfactory index of progress in the re ee portion of the life insurance eld. Further progress is indicated by an ease of a group spirit among life men in the National Capital. tion lines of the District Un- ters association have been further _. Strengthened and membership aug- mented from about 100 to 150 mem- bers. This can have only beneficial re- sults for the buyers of life imsurance. While progress on every hand has been notable during the last year, there still is room for advancement fn the life insurance field, as in every other. Much of this can be accomplished in connection with the public’s attitude toward this highly important type of service. Many Negiect Life Insurance. There: still are many thousands of persons who remain indifferent to the necessity of obtaining life insurance. They comprise that great number whose “life values” still remain on an uwun- stable basis. To such persons the fu- ture is something ~which is vague but none the less certain. They do notning to offset the actual uncertainty of life tenure. They overlook the fact that the monetary worth of life values is greatly in excess of existing property values. While the latter run into the billions, the former may be measured in much larger units. Persons who do not reckon ¢orrectly this, their greatest possession, are un- mindful of the at times tragic eventu- ality that it can be swept away in a moment by a sudden death with de- pendents—a wife, children or aged parents—left poverty stricken. It is to this group that those who aré engaged in the task of providing protection for the economic value of life <itself are endeavoring to direct an ever-increas- ing appeal. They are endeavoring to make this appeal stronger and stronger, but at the same time to increase their Own potentialities for service. With the insurance man constantly becoming better able to assist those who seek his aid, and the insuring clientele becoming more alert -to the advisability of protecting themselves and their dependents, the next twelve- month should find the life insursnce field pfogressing immeasurably.

Chicago, Dec. 31—(By the Associated Press) —Last-minute rid of December holdings of wheat tumbled quotations for that month down quickly today to 65, cents under yesterday's finish. The loss fell on owners who apparently had overreached themselves expecting wheat to score an advance instead of a downiurn as the year came to an end. Taken as a_ whole, closed unsettled, 38 to 6% cents net lower, corn % to 244 cents down, oats | unchanged to a shade off, and provis- ions unchanged to 20 cents up. It was plainly a case of the bottom dropping out of the market when the final limit was reached for-a settlement of December wheat contracts. Demand. from traders who needed wheat to ful- : fill their obligations showed a good deal of urgency earlier in the day, but the call from this source became enhausted just béfore the close. Then a rush of offerings ensued, and the crash in prices followed, with the finish 74 cents below the day’s top level, and at the lowest figures this season, $1.32 a bushel. Weakness of the wheat market was due in a general way to indications of large worid shipments for the week, and to unlooked for downturns in quo- wheat values ations at ee Deliveries tOday at Liverpool were heavier than expected, and very large shipments from Argentina and Aus- tralia were forecast. Argentina has put afloat 834,000 bushels of wheat this week, mostly new crop wheat from the north. Advices were also at hand say- ing the Australian wheat yield has turned out better than expected, and will be 57,000,000 bushels above last year. Increased country offerin had a bearish effect on corn. des, ship- ping demand for corn was siow in the extreme. Oats sympathized with corn. Provisions rallied in response to a rise in the value of hogs. Cash grain: WHEAT—No. 2 red, hard, 1.42% @1.43%. eo 3 mixed, 6844; No. 2 yel- ow, 74.

THE WASHINGTON POST, SATURDAY, JANUARY. 1, 1927. STOCK PRICE LEVEL WELL ABOVE FIGURE | AT CLOSE OF 1926 Despite Severe Reaction of Last March, Trend Is Again Upward. ‘BANKERS’ PREDICTION ON FUTURE QUALIFIED Favorable Factors Balanced by Low Cotton and by Foreign Rivalry. > New York, Dec. 31 (By the Associated Press).—Despite one of the severest re- actions in stock exchange history last March and indications of a slowing- down in some major lines of business . in 1927, the general level of stock prices * £t the close of the year is well above that at the end-of 1925. Bond prices have risen to the highest levels since 1913. In both the bond and stock mar- kets the total volume of business in 1926 was slightly below that of 1925. The major trend of stock prices has been upward since the early summer of 1924, although the big “bull” movement did not get under way until after the presidential election that year. At the beginning of 1926 prices were rising and continued that way, with a few minor _interruptions, until late in February when a heavy liquidating movement started, culminating in the disastrous March break which reduced quoted val- - ues of listed securities several billion - dollars in the aggregate. Alternate periods of weakness and strength, gharacterized the late spring markets, with a rather definite upward tendency apparent again by early sum- mer. This continued until the early fall when another sharp reaction took place. In the closing months of the year prices started to climb again, the industrial average touching the highest » level ever recorded in the last month .of the year. Predictions Are Qualified. While it is generdliy—conceded that the trend of business and money rates - undoubtedly will determine the move- ment of security prices in 1927, predic- ‘tions of bankers and other competent -obscrveérs of market conditions are more qualified than usual at this season of the year, indicating widespread uncer- tainty. Those committed to the cycle theory* of business and. market trends naturally look for a downward read- justment of values while others see nothing in fundamental conditions “hat would warrant a general recession,_al- -though admitting that ss sygncumasaytn may develop in certain, lines. Three principal sources of uneasiness arc: First,,the huge volume of bank funds invested in securities; second, the rapid growth of installment buy- me, and third, the low price of com- ‘modities, particularly cotton. Inability of business and commercial channels to -absorb the huge imports of gold within the Jast few years, ‘mecessitating the emplcyment of funds derived from its sale in’ the securities markets, is believed to be responsible for the gigantic investment of benks in stocks and bonds. While methods oi financing installment purchases un- doubtedly have been improved and strengthened in the last year or twg, the extensive use of this method, par- ticularly in the purchase of motor cars, rad:os and other luxxuries, is regarded a source of danger in some quarters, and it is generally conceded that the real test of the system will not come until the. country enters a period of general depression. The decline in com- modity prices is feared largely because of its adverse effect on purchasing power, particularly in the agricultural regions, Strong Favorable Factors. Favorable factors in the situation as the year draws to a close are: abundance of credit at relatively low rates; comparatively low inventories, resulting largely from so-called “hand- to mouth” buying and quick and effi- ciency transportation, imcreasing in- dustrial efficiency; especially through the more general use of labor and time saving devices; absence of any serious labor disputes and a generally high rate of employment, and _ gradual economic rehabilitation abroad. » On the other side of the ledger are: A slowing down in steel production and building construction; the low price of @otton; increasing foreign competition; the relatively low margin of profit in many industries, and the large volume ef brokers’ loans. _ §teel shares, as a group, failed to make much progress. United States Steel common, however, ®oared to the highest price ever recorded in the clos- ing weeks of the year in reflection of unusually havy peace-time earnings and the declaration of the long-awaited 40 per cent k dividends, a $200,000,- 000 ‘“‘melon.” Earlier in the year the stock had defnitely been placed on a $7 annual basis. It is expected in Wall street that the same dividend will be maintained on the additional stock. Dividends*‘en the common stock of the Republic Iron & Steel Co. were re- stored, after a lapse of five years, and the Crucible Steel dividend was increas- ed from $4 to $5 and thence to 86. Bethlehem Steel common is expected to go on a dividend basis next year. Oil companies enjoyed unusual pros- perity but this was not generaliy re- ' Sterling Products (5). | Stewart W. Sp.

Several false rallies in this group during the past few years, coupled with fears that record-breaking crude production this year would unsettle the price structure ifigs, led to rather heavy liquidation by tired and disappointed holders on all rallies. Retirement of the preferred stock of the Standard Oil Co. of New Jersey and the transfer of the common stock of the Standard Oil Co. of New York from the curb market to the “big board” attracted widespread atten- tion. Rails Reflect Activity. Establishment of new high traffic and earnings records by class:1 rail- roads was mirrored in the general ad- vance in stock prices and in increased dividends, the raising of the rate of Pennsylvania Railroad common being a noteworthy feature. Rejection of the original “Nickel Plate’ merger plan by the Interstate Commerce Commission and the difficulties encountered in the preparation of a revised plan, together with a general wage increase to Eastern trainmen toward the end of the year, tended to keep speculative enthusiasm for the rails in check. Railroad equipment stocks soared to record high levels, due to the heavy purchase of new equipment by the principal carriers and the more general use of new automatic train control and signal devices. ‘Textile and packing | po shares lost ground in reflection of poor traGe c¢ ns, but they showed signs of marked improvement as the year drew to a close. Record-breaking chain store and mail order = sales brought higher prices for. stocks of those companies. Amusement, chemi- cal and food shares lacked a definite trend. 4 Sales of Automobiles. Although the production and sale of automobiles broke: all records, not all automobile stocks shared in this pros- perity. The General Motors .Corpora- tion’s earnings were enormous, exceed- ing those of the United States Steel Corporatign for the first nine months of the year, and they were. liberally shared with stockholders, who received generous cash dividends, in addition to ra 50 per cent stock dividend. Stocks of many of the smaller companies, such as Chandler-Cleveland, Jordan, Moon and Paige-Detroit, were hard hit, due to the sharp competition afforded by the larger concerns. Stocks of acces- sory companies also presented several points of weakness. TREASURY CERTIFICATES. ( [peperies by J. & W. eepgen p~ a, Co.)

NVEMAGE: AT HIGHEST 1926 LEVEL Stiff Money ‘Rate - Causes Some Cut in Trading—For- eign Group Leads. — U. S. SECURITIES STRONG New York, Dec. 31 (By the Associated Press) —Although speculative interest in the bond market waned as the year came to a close today, investment buy=- ing carried the general average of prices back to within a fraction of the 1926 high level attained a few weeks ago. The only apparent effect of high money rates was to curtail the volume of trad- ing.- Foreign obligations, which have made a remarkable showing during 1926, con- tinued to lead the market on the final lap of the year. New high records were established by a dozen or more issues, including most of, the Belgian and French government bonds as well as the French municipals and rails. The Mexican issues alone were weak, prob- ably in reflection of the deadlock be- tween the government and foreign oil companies over.the new petroleum ~ regulations. United States government securities also ended the year wfth a good display of strength with at -least five Liberty and Treasury bonds duplicating or beter tering the year’s previous high prices. With year-end adjustments generally completed, railroad liens again attract- ed their normal volume of investment buying, several advancing to new peak prices. Carolina Central 4s jumpmil nearly 3 points, Erie Consolidated 4 moved up a point to a new high and Western Maryland 4s were unusually active. Fractional gains were registered by a varied ‘assortment of high-grade and semispeculative issues. PROSPERITY BASED ON NEW EFFICIENCY (CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1.) work brought lower commodity prices. We began to understand the difference between money wage and real wage. We developed a new term, ‘consumer purchasing power.’ We liked it suffi- ciently to cultivate it. The expansion of a century-old method of merchandig- ing, installment credit,’ added to the consumer purchasing power and the prosperity begun- under a new wage philosophy was extended. id ‘““The.record of the last two years is not an accident. It is not a windfall, a piece of good luck, or an evidence that fortune habitually smiles upon us with special favor. The cold record of statis- tical facts shows to all who wish to know that for the measure of national prosperity which has come in the last two years we worked hard. We have striven to make each application of la- bor produce more than it ever produced before. We have been exerting our- selves to get greater efficiency. In that effort the figures show that we have been successful. There is no other pos- sible explanation for the upwerd course of the wage level in the Umted States since 1919 and the downward course of the price level. For different indus- tries the Federal Department of Labor has been making some studies through which it shows striking increases in productivity. The Secretary of Com- merce has pointed out in the report which he published at the end of No- vember that the railroads have recently been performing 43 per cent more work, in ton-miles of freight moyed, than in 1913, but with only 2 or 3 per cent more employes. - “We ought to have the courage to continue to conduct our business on the same basis on which it has gone forward so successfully during the past two years, but there is always the dan- ger that we will face the future with fear and adopt some new bogey to dis- turb the even flow of good business. He would be a superoptimist who would be sure that we have discovered the secret of perpetual prosperity, but the experi- ence of the people of the United States since the major deflation period after the war ought at least encourage us to believe that business has learned many lessons and that we can face the future with a confidence that with sane facing: of facts our national prosperity will continue.” e CURB MARKET REVIEW. New York, Dec. 31 (By the Associated © Press).—Confused price movements characterized the closing session of the year in the New York curb market. Cash transactions for the purpose of registering income tax losses were quite common. While year-end markets are seldom indicative of a definite price trend, a number of new high records have been established in the industrial group, some of them obviously influ- enced by the prospect of special divi- dend or merger developments next year. The Mexican oil and land law contro- versy has temporarily ee specu- lative enthusiasm for the oils, al- though few companies -are directly af- fected by the REPSINE proceedings. In the Standard Oil group int gains in Buckeye Pipe & Prairie were offset by similar losses in Galena Signal and Standard Oil of Ohio. The active inde- pendent oil issues showed only frac- tional changes. Among the specialties Procter & Gam- Tble jumped 744 points. to 185, and was followed into new high ground for the year by Estey Welte A, G. & E. Kro; illsbury Flour, Rand Kardex é | Standard Computing, Tabulating & cording. General ing issues rallied on the settlement of a suit brought by | minority stockholders of that company. Substantial gains also were regis by Stutz Motors, Victor Machine, War- ' Grand Stores and lip Morris. .

INTEREST IN BONDS LAG By F. W. PATTERSON. »- Trading on the: Washington Stock Exchange ,wound up the year with prices strong and as ‘on the preceding day the local public utility stocks domi-|- nating the market. Washington Gas Light was the leader, |’ and, coming out fractionally under} close of Thursday, soli to the extent] of 30 shares in three lots at 715g, but} advanced to 71%, thé final level of the day before, at which price 80 shares changed hands. has remained fractionally close to its closing price for’ several weeks. . The total number of shares sold on the ex- change was 6,215, the only utility whose shares sold exceeded this was Capital Traction. Traction opened unchanged at 104%, declined to 1045, on a sale of 50 shares and advanced to 104% on final sale of 50 shares. » Washington Railway & Electric preferred was firm at 9014, while Potomac Elettric. Power preferred advanced to 108. In the bank stocks Continental Trust Co. gained 3 points to 105 to establish the peak for the year, while in the mis- cellaneous issues Mergenthaler Lino- type was firm at 108, as were National Mortgage & Investment preferred, changing hands at 7%, and Peoples Drug Stores preferred, which sold at 110. There was little interest in the bond division, Chestnut Farm Dairy 645 selling at 103% for $500 and 1035 for $1,000, while Capital Traction 5s sold at 100. | Richmond Reserve Strong. The reserve position of the Richmond Federal Reserve Bank was strengthened substantially during the final week of the year as a result of lessened demands for credit in the local district. The ratio was 74.06 per cent Wednes- day against 70.94 per cent the week before, and was well above the ratio for the system which was 70.1 per cent. Richmond rediscounts sl from $29,278,000 to $25,278,000 and were at approximately the year’s low. Federal _reserve note circulation dropped nearly $4,000,000, while member bank reserve deposits were $5,000,000 higher. The reduction in discounts in the Pifth dis- trict was proportionately much larger than that of the system as a whole. Federal Storage Dividend. - The regular quarterly dividend of 2 per cent on the preferred has been declared by directors of the Fed- eral Storage Co., according to announce- ment yesterday by E. K. Morris, presi- dent. The divided payment will be made on January 15, to stockholders of record December 31, 1926. Johnson & Adams Move. Holcombe G. Johnson and Eugene G. Adams, trading as Johnson and Adams, southeastern managers for the Conti- nental Casualty Co., and agents for several insurance companies, have moved their offices te the Commercial National Bank building. $1,431,200 Mortgage Loans. Mortgage loans made by the Acacia Mutual Life association in the District for the thre@ months ended November 30 totaled $1,431,200, comprising 21 loans. By month loans made were $831,500 in September, $549,500 in Oc- _ tober, and $50,200 in November.’ Same Problems in 1927. ‘The stock market of 1927 probably will present the same problems which have been met during the last year. Investment funds which probably will cause an advancing trend of bond prices may be expected to have a correspond- ing influence upon the highest grade stocks. On the other hand, the pos- Sibility of moderately reduced general business activity and keener competi- tion suggest lower average. corporate earnings. “This situation should result, in a downward trend of the more specu- lative securities which may be suffi- ciently broad to carry. average prices Jower,” according to the following 1927 forecast of Spencer Trask & Co. “We anticipate no prolonged bear ‘market mor do we believe that a very broad trend in either direction is to be ex- pected.” Credit conditions and the unusually strong financial position of the ma- jority of leading corporations, together ‘with the existing fundamentally sound . economic structure, seems to preclude anything more than a temporary period of readjustment. Such a moderate intermediate recession appears to be in progress and it is difficult to -justify recent strength and activity on other than technical ground. Probably to the extent that speculation now is being overdone there will follow a re- action of proportionate severity. The security owner may look for- ward to 1927 with confidnece in a con- tinuation of the experience of the last twelve months, the reviewer points out. The speculator and, for the time being, the investor with new funds had best stand aside until the aftermath of speculative excesses again provide an opportunity for conservative pur- chases.

Earnings of the California Packing Corporation have, as a rule, been @x- cellent. . Aggregate net profits during the ten years which ended in February, 1926, amounted to over $48,000,000. These earnings have averaged’ prac- tically twice the dividends paid. Divie dends have been paid on the common stock, which is the sole capital obliga- tion of the corporation, since organiza- tion, the rate being $6 annually since the preferred stock was retired in 1920 up to 1926. The present rate is $4 @ share on a greatly increased capitaliza- tion.

There are no bank loans or funded obligations outstanding. In August of 1926 the company dis- tributed a 100 per cent stock dividend te holders of capital shares. (All rights reserved, Cambridge Boston.) NEW YORK COTTON. New York, Dec. 31 (By A. P.).—-The cotton market lost part of yesterday's advances during today’s trading. Decem- ber demand was less active after the buying of the previous day, while there seemed to be a little more Southern selling, as well as realizing or liquida- tion. March declined from 12.96 to 12.81 and closed at 12.85, the general market closing barely steady at net declines of 6 to 10 points. The opening was steady at an ad- vance. of 1 point to a decline of 2 points. Surin developed at the start on the relatively firm showing of Liver- 1 and there appeared to be some overnight buying orders in the market, which was readily supplied at the open- ing prices, however, and the market eased off later under selling, part of which appeared to be for continental accounts. The more favorable weather reported in the South probably was a factor OB the reaction which followed, as some local traders were said to be seliing in anticipation of the new picking and increased Southern offerings next week. Whatever the cause for the setback, the selling was by no means active or ag. gressive, and after easing off from 12. to 12.64 for January, and from 13.16 to 12.99 for y, the market held fairly steady in later er BH Private cable advices said trade call- ing with London and Manchester buy- ing had absorbed hedge sales in Liver- pool and there was fair demand for cotton piece goods from India, although many of the offers were unworkable. Liverpool had both buying and sell- ing orders here early, but the bulk of the foreign selling was supposed to be for continental Account. On the whole the action of the market was regarded by local traders as indicating that the covering of the short interest earlier in the week had. left it easier technical position and conse- quently more sensitive to year-end realizing or liquidation. 7 Reports reaching here from one of the Ear - — Associates, astern belt markets said Japanese interests had been buyers of some of the better grades there, but that de-° mand was expected to turn to lower grades soon as they anpeared available at relatively low prices. t Exports today, 42,659, making 5,465,- 908 so far this season.
