NINE NEW SUPREME
JUDGES APPOINTED

Oklahoma City, March 24.-Gov.
Robert L. Williams late Wednesday
afternoon appointed nine members OF
the new supreme court commission,
provided for in recent act of the
legislature, and Immediately trans
mitted the names to Chief Justice
Matthew J. Kane of the supreme
court for approval.
By the terms of the new supreme
court commission bill, the governor
appoints the members of the COM
mission subject to approval and con-
firmation by the supreme court.
Thursday is the regular conference
day of the supreme court and at
that time the appointments of the
governor will be acted upon by Chief
Justice Kane. When the names were
received Wednesday, Judge Kane
called conference, but members of
the court preferred to let the matter
go over until Thursday.
The new law also gives the gov
ernor the authority of designating
nine district judges to act as ad-
ditional commissioners at any time
the docket of the court may become
congested and the public welfare de-
mands early disposal of the cases.
1t is the intention of the governor
who from statehood until his cleo
tion as governor, was member ol
the supreme court, to have the doc
ket cleared entirely as early as pos
sible in order that the expense of the
commission might ultimately be done
away with.

GROWING.

New York, March 24.-Dealings in
securities on the stock exchange to
day were larger and of broader scope
than any time since the resumption of
business last December. Total trans
actions approximately 100000 shares
and the average of prices was highest
for the current year, but somewhat
under the best quotations of the mid
die of last December.
United States Steel led with an ag
gregate sale of almost $4,000 shares,
many large blocks of 1000 to $500
shares changing hands on the rise of
pa points. Reading came next with
4 gain of 3-S on total output of 49,,
600 shares, followed by Union Pacific
which was traded in to the extent of
$4,000 shares and gained l 3-S and
. 3-4 points respectively. Dealing in
these four leaders comprised about 40
per cent of the days operations, which
embraced 16S issues and included a
number of inactive specialties.

Speculative Demand Responsible.
A large percentage of the days bust

feature playing an important part be

Investment inquiry continues to show
extreme caution, as denoted by the
bond market, which failed to keeI

stocks.
