 NEW YORK, June 9.-(Wall Street) Trading was active for both ac- counts today after an irregular open ing. The advance began with a brisk inquiry for motor shares and soon eX tended to the general list.
 General motors gained almost seven points, Stakeholder over four, and others of that division 1 F to 212 points.
 Other striking features of the short session were Industrial Alcohol which rose almost four points to 1l9%, a new high record Distillers securities, a related issue meanwhile rising four points to 25%
 United States Steel was under mod crate pressure, closing at 131B un- changed from the previous oay.
 The steel tonnage statement for May showed a decrease of almost S00,Q0O tons from the high water mark established the previous month but the volume of thrilled orders was sufficiently large to indicate that the mills of the corporation still are tax ed to capacity.
 Copper and zinc shares, oils and sugars registered gross gains of l to ) points.
 Total sales 45OOOO shares.
 The bank statement again reflect ed the enormous shifting of local moneys in connection with the Liberty Loan. The federal reserve banks show ed an increase from this source of slightly over $61,0O0.000. Excess re serves contracted about $2S,000,000. a decrease of almost S10S,000.000 in the past fortnight.

 Weekly Financial Review.
 NEW YORK. June 9.-Events of the week seemed to warrant the sustained optimism manifested in the stock market The trend of trade was almost steadily upward.
 War shares rose to highest quota tions of the year and in such issues as United States Steel and the Beth lehem Steels all previous records were surpassed. The advance encountered increasing Hquidations and tenta- tive renewal of selling for short ac count, but in no important instance did these opposing influences serious ly affect quoted values.
 Rails were the last of the repre- sentatives stocks to move, rising one to almost three points immedi

NEWSPAPER A BUSINESS INsTI-
TUITION
Demand Fair Profit.

Unless a newspaper provides
good living for the editor and his
family, it may be reckoned a failure,
is the opinion OF R. E. Billings, pub
Usher of the Menard (Tex.) Messen-
ger, as expressed IN a paper read at
the annual meeting of the Texas
Press association held at Galveston.
Among other things he said:
up until the last few years, the
country newspaper has not been re-
garded as a business institution. The
business men of the community
thought Of it as a charity institution
to which q donation must be made
in return for what they considered
a doubtful service.
''On the other hand, the churches,
the schools and the men pushing the
work of publicity for some commun-
ity affair, also regarded 1t as a bust
ness institution. Only its function
was to give for the good of the COM
munity. Most newspaper men have
donated enough charity IN free ad-
vertising, printing at cost, etc, which
If figured in dollars and cents, would
bankrupt the average merchant and
give the town banker heart failure.

As to Bristow


J. L. BristoW has been a terror to
evil doors and grafters ever since he
entered the public life as fourth as
sistant postmaster general.
No one doubts for one moment his
usefulness to the state of Kansas as
chairman of the State Utilities Board.
That man canhave the audacity to
point out and give facts and figures
IN raids and grabs on the public rev
enueS when the country is in q state
of war fills a lot of self-styled patri-
OTIS with something akin to frenzy.
Only the other day a deal was al
most slipped through the committee
on appropriations in congress for the
purchase of grounds and buildings of
the jamestown Expositions failure to
allow landowners $650,000 for the
grounds alone, when buildings and
grounds altogether cost = originally
but $250,000! And but for the vigil
lance of a man of the Bristown stripe
Congressman Kelley, it would have
been slipped over.
Who's the greater patriot, friend to
the soldier boy in the field, the gov
eminent that is trying to blot kaiser
ism from the face of the earth, the
man anxious that most possible of
every dollars reaches the trenches, OF
the one who profits in blood or glazes
over scabby transactions when deal

noted his career. He has the eye, the
brain and the ourage-such men are
needed In peace and war. His worth

Socialism Akin to Treason

Socialism is having a hard time
of it these days. In this country So
cialists are deprived of passports to
enable them to attend socalled "peace
conentions" in Europe. In France
they are similiarlarly handicapped,
despite the fact that political Social
ism has made great progress in that
country and shows large parliament
tary strength. In England they no
longer enjoy the unrestricted free
dom which made that land the refuge
OF the desperate men who were COM
PEELED to flee to the Continent. And
everywhere their ranks are being de-
pleted by the desertion of high-mind-
ed men who find that intellectual So
clallsm Is closely akin to treason when
II attempt to express itself in action
IN time Of war. We would be glad if
this reaction should proceed even
farther In the United States for in
stance, II would be a good omen if
the revulsion against active socialism
should extend also to academic social
ism, which has been allowed to ex-
press itself IN legislation during the
past four years. We now see more
clearly than ever before what social
ism means when ultimate test comes.
1t means resistance to government
IN form of tatamount to treason. To
coddle socialism in legislation is to
invite It's Ultimate demonstration n ac-
ton. There has been too much of such
coddllng IN legislative action in this
country -McCracken Enterprise.

Two billion dollars is tremendous

much and have barely touched their
resources. The money was raised SO
easily it only seemed to show the ire

country.
1t is not one-tenth of our bank de-

Not only Is this first Liberty Loan

larger than the initial loans Of any Of

Washington, D. c., July 20.-In
war time countries fall back upon
Asheir reserves. Corn is the food re-
serve of Americans-a tried and true
line. Did it not enable the early col
onists to win their wars with the In
dams, the people who taught them
not only how to grow this food but
how to eat it? And did not George
'Washingtons armies fight our first
war for democracy eating "Hasty
puddin'," no-cake, samp, and all the
Ssest of those famous corn-meal dish
es? Why not give this veteran Amer
lean food a chance in The Great War
for democracy? ..
1t is time to call the corn reserve
to the colors. That duty devolves
upon American housewives But the
United States Department of Agricul-
ture will help. The departm ent,
through its Office of Corn Investiga-
lions, has taken steps calculated to
restore meal making on farms which
are so situated that satisfactory quail
tiles of corn meal at reasonable prices
can not be had. Where commercial
mills are distant it is believed that
home grinders, owned comparatively
If not individually, would furnish a
fresh and wholesome food product
and save transportation costs. Ac-
Eordingly, the departments corn Of
fee has issued these instructions to it's
field men:
You should consider the various
