The outlook is for full responsive ness to the unfolding of all encour- aging projects and promises and the level of prices still being more pro- ductive in actual interest return than current rates for money, there is, in view of the recent developments stim- u1ating to sentiment, added reason for pursuing the policy of purchases on all reactions in securities that may occur through technical or other changes having obviously temporary origin.

 Authorized by Pope.

Authorized by Pope.
 Rome, April 18.-The meeting of ex-President Roosevelt and the papal nuncio at Vienna, Mgr. Granite di Be1monte Pignate11i, after Ambassa- dor Kerens, luncheon Saturday, was evidently not expected by the Vati- can. As rumors are already in cir culation that the papal nuncio bore message from the pope to Colonel Roosevelt, the Vatican has issued the following statement:
 'NThe papa1 nuncio at Vienna did not ask for any instructions concern ing his visit to MT. Roosevelt, nor were any instructions sent to him from the Vatican. Therefore. as the suppesition that the nuncio was charged with communication to MT. Roosevelt is deprived of any foundation, so it is certain that his visit cannot have any special signi- fcance 's

fiicted other injuries. Young Smelling

A playmate. George Luna, also aged
10 years, pressed the trigger that sent
the bullet into Snelling's head. The
two lads, with third boy, Bruce Ma
son, were playfully scufhing at the
Luna cabin in the mountains near the
Frank Ferdew ranch. Calling out that
he was going to shoot, young Luna
raised the .22-caliber rifle which he
supposed unloaded, and pulled the
trigger. To the dismay of the boys
report followed and in another in
stant Smelling was staggering with
blood streaming from his face. The
bullet had entered his face below the
eye and striking a tooth tore it away
and continued to the back of his
mouth, where anotoher tooth blocked
its course. Had the rifle been high
powered gun the bullet would not
have glanced and would have un-
doubtedly passed through the brain.
The injured boy was carried to Keen
brook on the Santa Fe, where an en-
gine was tagged and the lad brought
to this city.
The young Luna boy Is distracted
with grief over his unwilling act that
resulted in the serious wounding of his
