quoted at prohlbGiyc rates and conditions
IN the main are as nearly normal ms could
be expected under the circumstances But
there is grave reason to doubt that what
helps the wall street Spectator helps the
people. There Is apparently nearly as much
rensun to doubt that the panicky aspect Of
nfnirs In evidence during the early part OF
the week would have caused trouble else.

been done to relieve the situation In fact,
many conservative people here are of the

lntors and removing them as a factor in
