Prominent Woman Worker
Says American Women
Must Quit Being
Parasites

Mrs. Frank A Vanderlip Of New
York City, treasurer of the National
Woman's Liberty Loan Committee, is
lrging upon the women of America
definite and consistent war service.
IN recent interview she said:
American women must quit being
parasites and learn to give instead of
always taking An hour or two

tny woman to give her country. We
must give a full business day, an g.

Mrs. Vanderlip outlined the splen-
lid work which has been done by the
women of Great Britain and France
md congratulated American women
IN having as their allies in their new
work such women.
"If we ever have another war;
aid Mrs. Vanderlip, women will be
n the trenches. What do the pa
:ifists mean when they want us to
stop before our present job is done?
There is but one standard for
Measuring woman in this new day
If war. That is dependability. The
woman who can be depended upon is
he one we want. The one who can
lot be counted upon is the one who
will be dropped forever. A profes-

Record Mexican Petroleum Profit.

Mexican Petroleum's excited advance
of'90 points In the last month made and
lost several fortunes for a number OF
people in the Wall Street district. and
the record made by one firm, which
cleared $1,s00.000 profit for its Gus
toners, is but one of the many unusual
stories connected with the stocks per-
formance. The house referred to, Maury.
Rogers & Auchlncloss. was one of the
hrst to issue an analysis OF the property
and its value under peace conditions. and
when the stock was selling around 1O2
many of the FIRMS customers purchased
1t, Throughout the stocks erratic move
ments this house held to its original
opinion and though a majority of the
early buyers took their profits around the
10 level. their customers did not change
their position. Yesterday, however, the
highly actions OF Mexican Petroleum
proved too much for further restraint.
and the 1O2 stock was all sold at around
the top figures Of the day. When the
returns were all In and the balances
made after the close 1t was found that
the net profits were 81 500, 900, which is
believed to be the record held by any
Stock Exchange house on Mexican
Petroleum.
The sun., 1918-10-19
Another Fancy Story.

The higher Mexican petroleum sells
the deeper becomes the mystery of Who
Is buying and a fresh story of the
reason for the stocks unprecedented
advance was heard yesterday. It was
that the Mexican Petroleum Company
presented President Carranza of Mexico
with large block of the stock Ssome
time ago in order to compromise its
difficulties with his government, and
having no stock in the treasury the
stock was taken from the Pan-Ameri-
can Petroleum and Transport Com
pany's holdings This weakened
the control somewhat and the Mex
lean Petroleum officials decided to
make up the stock they had given
Carranza by buying it in the open
market. believing that this could be
accomplished without any great trouble.
Some one on the outside. so the tale
runs. learned of this situation and a
competitive fight quickly developed over
the floating supply. 1t was limited that
this outside interest represented a
prominent English oil man, who saw a
chance of obtaining control Of the Next
can Petroleum property. How true this
version of the Mexican Petroleum epi-
sode Is cannot be determined but the
fact that II is the belief of some finan-
ciers that fight Is on to swing control
or the company lends strength to IL.

Cash Buying Approved.

The remarkable demonstration In the
market yesterday caused some talk OF
the banks taking steps to curtail brokers'
loans. but 1t was declared in quarters
apt to know that this would not occur
because 1t Is not necessary in spite OF the
enormous expansion in trading this week.
1t was pointed out by a prominent
banker that the great demand from
abroad for the standard railroad and
industrials was all for cash, and that
while professional operations had grown
larger this week brokers' loans were not
mitch changed from several weeks ago.
due to the big cash purchasing. The
orders from London and many neutral
sources are chiefly for American rails
and steel, as was clearly shown In the
rush to secure these issues. The chief
thing that the banks are watching is the
speculative element. which they do not
wish to see overextended, but so far as
outright buying by Americans and for
eigners is concerned this kind of invest
ment has the full approval Of the big
institutions.

4 Small Incident.

Brokers enjoyed a good laugh on a
certain Stock Exchange firm whose repu
tation for conservativeness was carried
to the extreme yesterday. according to
story told by floor members after the
close 1t seems that an elevator boy
FOUND TWO $500 Fourth Liberty bonds.
and seeing the name of the house In
question pinned on the bonds returned
them during his lunch hour. As a re-
ward a member of the firm presented
him with a lone dollar BILL in addition
to profusely thanking him. The boy pro-
tested that he could not take the money.
saying that apparently the house needed
II more than he did, and. true to its
reputation, the FIRMS partner accepted
the returned gift. And the climax Of the
whole incident came when this partner
related the circumstances to a friend
and seemed at loss to understand why
the reward was refused.

THE KAISEt TO BECOME A
DAIRYMAN IN RUSK
COUNTY

By means Of their uneXcelled spy
system, the Kaiser, and his staff have
discovered the wonderful oppOrtuni-
ties awaiting the dairyman and the
stOck-raiser in North Central Wis
cOnsin. The summary of the spies
Investigations shows that the fertility
of the gently rolling hardwood ridges,
with their clay loan soil, fortified for
centuries by falling leaves of the for
est, in Rusk and western Price cOun-
ties, makes a place without compare,
for the sheep raiser and the dairyman.
Fearing that they cannot rule the
world, the Kaiser and his staff have
chosen wisely in selecting this vicin-
ity to settle and become sheep raisers
and dairymen when they are finally
forced to admit defeat.
So you true Americans better get
your land in this clover belt, the best
unOccupied land in the world, before
the Kaiser and his staff gObble it all.
