STOCK MARKETS
CLOSE IS DULL
PRICES FOLLOW LONDON DE-
CLINE AT THE OPENING.
Uncertainty of Reading Causes Con-
traction of Trading Following Ap-
pearance of the Bank Statement
Prices Hardened, but the Closing
Was Irregular.

New York, March 24.-Opening prices in the
stock market today generally followed the down.
ward course of the London market. Declines
were small and dealings were on very light
scale Reading fell u, measuring the maximum
changes in the market
The uncertain movement of Reading, which
huctuated between 1872 and 1928, caused con
tracted dealings in other prominent stocks. The
market, however, was generally heavy in stone,
but only a few stocks declined to- a noteworthy
extent. Canadian Pacific controlled stocks were
conspicuously strong. Minneapolis ST. Paul &
Sault Ste. Marie went up ga, the preferred 2,
Duluth. South Shore & Atlantic 2, the pre-
ferred "a, North Western 1 and Brooklyn Union
Gas 2. The declines reached point in Great
Northern preferred, Northern Pacific Locomotive
and Lead.
A recession of, ~ in Reading had slight
erect on the general list, but prices hardened
again after the appearance Of the bank state
ment. Dealings were unimportant and there
was mo we'll defined tendency. International
Pump preferred rose 2 on few transactions.
The closing was irregular and very dull.

NEGLECT OF THE FLAG.
Milwaukee Journa

Milwaukee y Journal.
In some respects the American peo-
pie are slouchy in their neglect.
For instance:
We profess to love the flag. We do
love it. It is the emblem Of freedom
and progress. In it's folds is wrapped
a sacred history. It is to us the most
beautiful, as it>is the most significant
banner of all the earth.
And have you noted how neglectful
of the flag is the average custodian Of
a public building? In many Gases the
flag futters as a dirty rag. 1t is smoke
smudged and faded. It is permitted to
fan itself into strings and fragments.
You never see flag in that condition
in a European country.
The flag ought to be kept clean and
bright, a fit emblem of the nation it
stands for
