Law and making lost their
charm for Morris s. Halliday Of this
city when he found he could pass
the rigid examinations required of
applicants for the u. s. flying corps.
He was serving his second term in
the state senate when he passed the
aviation tests. He hied himself to a
pOstbox with a letter to Governor
Whitman, enclosing his resignation,
and to a railway station with a
ticket for San Antonio, where he is
now training at the aviation camp.
When the folks back home are
holding a special election to name
his successor, Halliday hopes to be
flying in Germany.
Halliday is a Cornell graduate and
starred at football there. He made
swift strides in law and politics aft

Improved Copper Demand.

Copper trade authorities note an in
creased activity In the market. due
largely to the decision that the price will
not be lowered previous to November l.
In this connection Walkers Copper Let
tor says: Since It was decided that the
price OF copper is TO remain fixed at 26
cents q pound until November /, the
market has shown greatly increased
activity. Those consumers who had been
hanging back on the theory that the
priA might be reduced, are now placing
their orders. Producers are booking
sales up to the limit of their assured
ability to make deliveries through Sep
TENDER and October. As heretofore the
United States Government. it's allies and
manufacturers having munitions con-
tracts. are the principal buyers. The
refinery output Is said to be running
somewhat In excess OF zoe. 900 900 pounds
per month and for the time being there
undoubtedly Is enough copper coming to

gins for iron. steel and fuel for the

Further testimony OF stringent money
conditions Is offered in the monthly stock
market analysis OF Goodbody & Co..
which says that the scarcity Of money
Is the greatest bear factor. A bull mar
ket without money Is inconceivabie. A
bull market on call money alone is also
out OF the question. Before the pools
are willing to undertake to make a bull
market they want to feel certain OF a
fairly liberal supply of time money.
Practically. time money 10 not now
available. IT is the general belief that
call money would go far above per
cent. II the money pool were not acting
as regulator Of rates. with the aid
OF this pool and with the efforts OF the
Federal Reserve Board to conserve credit
by restricting credit to the Industries
that are essential for the winning OF the
war we may get through the crop NOV
Ing period this fall without great money
stringoncy and excessively high rates.
II Is certain. however, that money rates
