SUGGEST new STRUCTURE
FOR TWO INSTITUTIONS
Proposal to Put Both Juvenile and
Municipal Courts Under One
Roof Is Commended.

Construction of modern. sanitary
building which will house both the Juve-
nile and Municipal courts is favored by
Corporation Counsel E. ii. Thomas and
Dr. William c. Woodward. health officer
Of the District OF Columbia.
"A new Juvenile Court building is one
of the crying needs of the District said
Mr.. Thomas today. "and the same may
be said with respect to the need of a
new home for the Municipal Court. Why
not bring these institutions under one
roof and give them n home that will be
a credit to the city,
DR.. Woodward commended the sugges-
ton. las the Municipal Court does not
have Jurisdiction i'm criminal cases. II
would be entirely appropriate for it 10
share building with the Juvenile Court,
and l would be glad to see one struc-
ture put up for the two institutions, "
said the health officer.
Both Mr.. Thomas and DIR. Woodward
are opposed to the suggestion that a new
Juvenile Court building be erected on
judiciary Square. but believe that such
structure should be located at a more
convenient point for administrative pur-
poses.

Concentrated Buying During
Last Hour Wipes Out the
Early Losses.
RAIL WAYS MANIFEST
UNUSUAL STRENGTH
Union Pacific, Reading, Canadian
Pacific and Amalgamated Fea-
ture the Advance.

NEW YORK, August 16.-Further
selling pressure was observed in the
opening dealings on the stock exchange
today
Most of the leaders, including Steel
and Union Pacific. were lower, with one
point declines in Bethlehem Steel
Great Northern Ore. Rock Island pre-
ferred and Mexican Petroleum.
The few gains were nominal and
without effect in staying the downward
tendency
The market closed strong.
Increasing fears of crop damage caused
heavy selling today for both accounts
when it sent prices down in the early
operations
Factors That Helped Raiders.
Misgivings over the effect on general
business by the reduced corn output, and
elimination Of the short interest by the
recent sustained advance made the mar
ket unusually susceptible to raiding tao
tics. Losses of point were recorded
in some instances before the list re-
sponded to concentrated buying which
ultimately wiped out the previous losses.
Union Pacific. Reading, Canadian Pa
cific and Amalgamated manifested un-
to a point over yesterdays closing. and
Westinghouse rose points.
Unfavorable Week Factors.
Three days OF successive gains and
active trading followed by two sessions
of less active trading at declining
prices summarize the movement Of the
week in the stock market. Practically
ali the leading issues were at best
prices for several months until yes
terday's recessions, based on further
adverse crop news, wiped out Il very
large part of the rise.
1t is evident from dayto day ad-
vices that the government crop report
as of August l was better by far than
