Tolerance,

We must vindicate the right of each
man to do what he likes, and to say
what he thinks, to an extent much
greater than is usually supposed to be
either safe or decent. This we must
do for the sake of society quite as
much as for our own sake. That So

freedom of action has already been
shown, and the same thing may be
proved concerning freedom of speech,

Imports of Crude Foodstuffs,
However, Increase.

The United States increased its i'm
portations of crude foodstuffs in No
vember, 1911, a little more than $6,-
900, 900 IN value above the same month
last year. 1t also increased the impor-
tation of manufactured foodstuffs
about $4,000, 900. At the same time the
exports Of crude foodstuffs to foreign
countries decreased approximately ST.
100000 in value, but the exports of
manufactured foodstuffs increased
nearly $5,000,000.
These figures are taken from the
statement just issued by the Depart
ment of Commerce and Labor. 1t shows
that while the importations of food
stuffs increased, the importations of
manufactured goods decreased approx
imately $1O,O0O,000 during the same
month, while our exports of manufac-
tured goods increased about $4,000, 900.
The total importation for the month
of November last decreased a little
more than $4,000, 900, compared with
the same month of 1910, while for the
eleven months ended with November
the decrease was approximately S33,-
100000 in value compared with eleven
months of 1910.
There was a decrease in,the total ex-
ports from the United States to foreign
countries during November, 1914, of
nearly $1,000, 200 in value, compared
with November, 1910, but for the eleven
months ended November, 1911, the in
crease in expectations from the United
States was more than $23,OOO,0O in
value compared with the same period

Lehigh Valley and Great Northern Ore Certii-
Gates Occupy Center of Stage

At about the same time Great North
ern Ore certificates yielded easily to
some profit-taking sales. These certifi-
Gates are supposed to be very cheap, and
they may be, but the fact that the trus-
tees do not make public all of the sources
OF income and do not tell exactly what
the gross and net earnings amount to is
reason enough for investors to let them
alone. 1t is possible that the informa-
ton is withheld in order to enable the in
siders to pick up a bargain in the certifi-
Gates, but that also should be a good
reason for letting them alone.
Wabash stocks were quiet and the per
cent bonds that were so active last week
yielded slightly to profit taking. The
committees that are asking for deposit of,
these bonds are not meeting with the sue

By THOMAS c. sHOTWELL.

New York, Dec. 26.-Lehigh Valley and
Great Northern Ore certificates attracted
most attention to-day. The general mar
ket was not changed materially, but the
number of stocks showing net gains was
greater than that il which losses were
recorded. Transactions were on such a
light scale that they were meaningless.
In Lehigh Valley there was an attempt
10 get activity on account of a special
meeting that it was alleged would be
held tomorrow to distribute as a bonus
stock of a new company to hold the
mining properties now owned by the
railroads.
This Lehigh story has been in circula-
tiOn so long that people are beginning to
believe it and the directors may actually
give it their official sanction some day.
But they will not do this until they feel
that it has lost its power as a market
-umor.
After getting Lehigh Valley up to
lse 7-S, which was a new high record for
the movement, it broke more than two

FINANCE And REALTY

The common stock of the Washington
Railway and Electric Company claimed
the greatest amount of attention yester-
day on the local stock exchange. The
highest point that has been recorded IN
its history was reached when one broker
paid so for 152 shares of this stock during
call.
. After call this price was paid for 100
shares. The broker doing the buying
then bid 81 for any part Of 1000 shares
Of the stock, but none was offered. This
bid was then Withdrawn and 501z sub
stituted.
The advance in the price of this stock
is said To be entirely due to the faith
placed in 1t by investors, and not to any
probable increase in dividends.
Very little trading was done in the
preferred stock of this company. During
call a ten-share lot sold for SS1z. and
after call SS% was paid for six shares.
At the close the asking price was S9h
and the bid SS1k.
Capital Traction IS sold at 121k and
124%.
Washington Gas stock was offered at
SS%, but the highest bid was SSk. The
broker, who Of late has been a liberal
buyer OF this stock, repeated his bid of
sSh for 100 shares, but without result.
There was but little trading in bank
stocks. Commercial sold at 1881 for ten
shares.
