Of Colonel Samuel Reber. though a

through the bill OF Congressman James
Hay Of Virginia that it has been given
an official status in the aviation section
of the signal corps. It Is safe to say
that from this beginning there will be
results which will show exceptional
efficiency for the money expended.
The United States has nothing in
the line of fighting apparatus for use

about depression in the steel trade. For

Progressive Boston.

Corporations make their own presidents
and sometimes in way that astonishes
even lawyers. o. Henry Wollman, who has
had a great deal TO do with corporations
and their legal affairs, has just found
something in Boston which, he thinks,
surpasses anything that could be dis
covered in New York. When an account
ant representing his firm was going over
the books Of a bankrupt Bay State cor
poration he was surprised to find that
the corporation had been regularly pay
ing the presidents dues as member OF a
Yacht club and OF some other expensive
clubs
There was about as much relation be-
tween a membership in those clubs and
the business Of the corporation as there
is between the question Of woman suf-
frage and the repeal Of the Panama
tolls" said Mr.. Wollman. So they asked
the president what the items meant, ex-
pecting that as usual some bookkeeper
would be held TO blame Not at all. This
IS all right" said the president, noncha-
zntly. at is the custom in Boston for
corporations to pay the club dues OF their
Presidents"

SteeI's New Peg.

Now that the peg for Steel at 81 has
hssn withdrawn there is q good deal or
curiosity over the figure ii will next mark.
obviously 81 is not TO be the point be-
causs il was easy to put the STOCK
through that figure yesterday and be-
cause too. the powers that peg stock
are ant 10 let their followers run a bit
before they try 10 rally them. There are
nearly always lot Of stop loss orders
lust under a peg price, and until they are
uiped out the bears have plenty of easy
material 10 work on. Sixty, of course,
suggests itself as the next rallying point,
because the psychological effect of break
ing a stock from the COS into the 5os, even
if il goes only = of a point below 90, Is
infinitely greater than the effect Of break
ing It through merely one Of the several
points OF the COS, and II is an effect that
the bulls are not eager TO experience. As
one trader said yesterday, for Steel TO get
down into the sos would be one of the
plainest evidences that the so-calied big
interests" felt that they were having too
much 10 do

Mexican Petroleum.

II is to the south and west Of Tampico,
where heavy fighting is going on now,
that practically all the property of the
Mexic- N Petroleum Company is situated.
There is where its $4,000 acres of oil
lands lie. In view Of that fact it was
hardly 10 be expected that the company
would decide now TO resume dividends on
its preferred stock that were abandoned
as lately as January Of the current year.
Ordinarily the directors meet within ten
days OF the time when the dividend is
payable TO take formal action upon it.
The books were due 10 close on March "A,
so that the absence Of any action at that
time seems 10 be a pretty good indication
that a Mexican political situation which
was cause enough in January TO bring
about a suspension Of dividends offers no
real reason now for their resumption.
