Gary. chairman of the board Of directors of the
United States Steel Corporation. to discuss steel
rail specifications and prices It stated after
the meeting that no important developments had
resulted from the conference. but one OF those
present said Il certain that the price Of
standard steel rails would remain unchanged At
S2S a ton. at which they have been held for sew

steel products declined several dollars ton. fol

Stock Touches 103 1-2, and Gives Rise to
Rumors Which Are Discredited.

The sharp advance in Union Pacific preferred
stock yesterday to a new high record Of 1o3le
coupled with the strength and activity 1t has dis
PLAYED in the last few DAYS, gave rise to report
that Mr. Hartman had in view the retirement Of
the preferred shares either through convertible
bond issue o by exchanging them for common
stock in the ratio Of shares of the preferred
for one Of the common.
No credence given 70 this report in well
informed quarters, where II pointed out that
as there vas no specific provision In the Union
Pacific permitting II to retire the preferred
stock such a plan would have to have the assent
o. all the stockholders OF the company. and that
II was extremely unlikely such assent could oA
obtained. particularly from the common stock
holders The old story Of a holding company TO

V CATION . A Y 81!

At last our turn for life in the
open! Away from the crash and
the hurl of city living. Away from
sky-scrapers and concrete. Away
from hot days in the midst OF brick
and mortar
How good to think OF chance to
feast on green fields and wander by
fern-grown brooks. Wakened IN the
morning by the rooster and his fam
lily, so much more melod1ous than
the goodnight hoot of the owl
The call of the country, the 1nv1-
tation of the sea, the beckoning OF
the mountain our Summertime
friends grow more insistent each
day.
Whether your holiday be three
months or two weeks, or only over
the Fourth, the Wanamaker Store
can help you with the least possible
trouble to yourself.
Try to shop early these Summer
days.
