NEW YORK, April 20.-Tomorrow Duns Review will say:
 "A widening of the field of business is influenced by war conditions. and ordinary requirements in many in- stances are subordinated to the pres sing necessities of the government. ln- dustries and trades which experienced q Hull from the previous noteworthy ec- tiVity respond to extensive federal buy ing, and overtime work is enforced to accelerate the production and distri- button of various supplies intended for military uses. From many quarters compalints of scarcity of raw materials and of labor become more insistent and outputs are maintained with increas- ing difficulty, while the transportation problem still occasions concern. Re quests for nasty shipments on regular contracts suggest apprehension of de- ranged deliveries to follow. In some branches in about all sections there is manifest a disposition to proceed eau tiously in making new comr''rnen'- and efforts to promite widespread economy among consumers are ues..i- ming to be reflected in more careful purchasing in retail circles.

NEW YORK, April 20.-Speculative stocks were more extensively Hqui- dated today at gross declines of 2 to ' points. Foremost among these issues were the leading munitions and equip ments, oils, motors and tobaccOs, with an admixture of kindred specialties.
 Selling was largely of professional origin, but the severe shinkage later forced investment offerings of high grade issues.
 Rails opened the session at gains of l to ? points on the tentative rate order granted by the interstate commerce commission, but these advances were soon dissipated in whole or part. New Haven duplicated it's recent minimum of 39A, making partial recovery with other rails on belated short covering. The more noteworthy recessions of the day included Bethlehem Steel new stock, which fell 67s points to 115A with four for the old shares at 12S; Sloss- Sheffield z points at A.

(6) (Now) This he said, not that | he cared for the poor; but because he | was thief, and had the bag and bare | took away what was put therein.

FOR THE MIDSUMMER GARDEN

There is more important plant in the midsum- garden than Gypsophila panicuata, varously known Chalk Plant Babys Breath, and called by the children here, Lace Shawls. Seemingly ob- vious to scorching sun and prolonged drought it coolly carries it's delicate plan of existence from silver haze cool white mist to fragile brown ob- vion. No plant is exquisite accompaniment to many others indeed, any spot where it grows will become lovely picture without agency. Topples their seed about it and their great blossoms upon it's cloudike bloom and Nigellas and Snapdragons particularly fine in association with it. One very pretty group here has Stachys anata

The Conscientious Obiector

TWO young men have been arrested and fined at Globe, and very properly so, for setting themselves above the law which provides for the enrolment of persons for military service. These young men not only have conscientious objections to military service but have pledged themselves by oath to some religious body to disregard military service and all steps lead ing to it.
 This nation is known, and most civilized nations are known as religious nations In nations re- are only tolerated with certain restrictions One can not indulge in form of religion that harmful or annoying to his neghbors, a religion whose prac- uces are Tn Violation of the laws of the land Likewise a religion cannot be tolerated which permits those who practice it to evade their duty as citizens If man for any reason neglect it. any other citizen may neglect it.
