ENGINEERS WORK
 IN MESA SECTION

MESA, May 1-The most enthusiastic man in the Salt River valley yesterday was $. A. Gerard of the company bearing his name-and whose business is that of car lot distributing of fruits and vegetables. MT. Gerard landed in Mesa via the Apache trail and from the way he unloaded his enthusiasm, it must have been bottled up all the way over the route While he has been in the valley four times in all, this is his first visit in the early springtime He stated that he has crossed the con- tinent twelve times. and has been in practically every state in the union, but that Arizona and particularly the Salt River valley offers the best in ducement for man to get a start of any place with which he is acquainted.
 MT. Gerard said that the fruit crop With the exception of apples appears to be cut very short all over the country hence the promising appearance of the valley trees and the large acreage in cantaloupes should bring in nice money to the growers here. A big lot of his enthusiasm was over the wonderful scenery along the Apache Trail which he declares to be of exceptional grand uer. The Gerard company will market over a thousand acres of valley canta = loupes this season.

STOCK LETTER By R. Allvn Lewis

A broad survey of the stock market definitely points to irregular improve ment in prices. There has never been a more thoroughly sold out market than the one at the present time. Standard securities are in demand on all recessions.
 Attention is being directed in con- servative quarters to the fact that the great enforced circulation of money. due to war loans, has enabled British companies to thrive wonderfully on an excess profits tax that has ranged from 50 to 70 per cent
 Inspiration Copper is reported to be under accumulation on all declines. The proposition to pay approximately market prices for copper metal in pur- chases for the government and allies is called a highly constructive feature. It is understood that Inspiration stands to get large part of the orders pend ing.
 Good buying in Great Northern Ore, Agricultural Chemical, Corn Products and Linseed Oil is reported from good sources.
 Malt stocks have steadied around II F for the common and 60 for the pre- ferred They should advance s.ia4 ply with an advance in the general market.
 Railroad stocks are heavily oversold and are in a position to respond to a rate advance.
 The curb market was active. Calu- met & Jerome was actively traded in for the first time in many weeks on a report of favorable developments in the shaft in the last two days.

FINANCES AND MARKETS
Republican A. p. Leased Wire1

NEW YORK, April 30 (Wall Street. -Stagnant conditions prevailed in the stock market today, leading shares be- ing reiegated to the back ground and special issues contributing far more than their usual quota. Early gains were largely retrieved in the final hour on obvious short covering.
 The total turnover of 325, ,000 shares which resulted chiefly from profession lal activity in pools barely equalled the active sessions. Happenings over the week end evidently were not of char acter to inspire increased confidence. Trading centered to an unusual de- gree around such speculative issues as Industrial Alcohol, the motors and oils. Alcohol was the dominant feature of the last hour, when it made it's ex- treme rise of 61a points to TIT on ex- tensive accumulation. General motors preferred rose 412 to 9212 with 4B for the common at 10SB while Mexican Petroleum advanced 4s to 921S and Texas Company to PIP.
 United States Steel followed it's er- rattle movements of recent days. Other industrials and metals moved within more circumscribed limits.
 Rails were in no sense a factor.
 Bonds were heavy, the lower trend applying to rails. induStrials and the international group. Total sales. pal value, S3,045, 900. United States bonds were unchanged on call, but Panama 3s coupon and registered declined one per cent.

The large audience which saw Joan the Woman at the Majestic theater last night, were fully repaid for sitting through twelve reels of a fifteenth cen tury drama, replete with emotion and tragic intensity. It was as though one actually stood in the presence of Joan of Arc and saw enacted the great events which today read more like TO- nance than reality. The historical ac- curateness of the play brought forth commendatory expressions from those familiar with French history. Miss Farrar had spent considerable time in France as a student for the operatic stage, and had ever been enthusiastic ally interested in the life and story of Joan of Arc, hence was able to bring the real atmosphere of the character and surroundings into this her crown ing work. The play will be repeated this afternoon and tonight

CHICAGO GRAIN

CHICAGO, April 30.-Assertion that European buying of both cash wheat and future deliveries had been halted helped depress wheat prices today.
 The market closed unsettled at 312 net lower to s4 gain with May at s2.71 and July at s2.25A to s2.26A.
 Corn finished Is to IS down. oats F off to 1s advance, and provisions varying from 37 decline to a rise of 10 cents.
 Corn and oats followed wheat and trade was meager except that foreign governments were credited with buying considerable amounts of future deliv- cries of oats here. On the other hand large increases of seeded acreage were reported in the states which have the heaviest oats production. Provisions averaged higher as result of readiness with which offerings were absorbed by commission houses. Breaks in the val ue of grain and hogs failed to act as an offset.
 Wheat: May. $271, July. s2.25% Sept, $1.SS5s.
