STOCKS ADVANCE
IN CURB MARKET
In Spite of Considerable Profit
Taking Prices at Close Are
Generally Higher.

Although there was yesterday consid-
cradle profit taking in curb stocks. prices
at the close were generally higher. The
market opened strong and several stocks
continued to high levels. with advances
as high as more than 20 points. The
sudden upward movement met with profit
taking and selling by traders. which
caused rather large declines in many
stocks. The selling was well absorbed
and there were quick rallies.
One OF the stocks that suffered heavi-
est was General Asphalt. which, after
touching a new high declined points
from that level. Houston Oil was In
vigorous demand and moved 90 points
higher, but lost half of that advance be-
fore midday. Loft, Inc, was firm, NOV
ing to a new high, and there was better
demand for American Tobacco securities
after profit taking.
Motor stocks were more active with
advances in Briscoe. Chandler and Mer-
GER, the latter being traded in for, the
first time. Food stocks advanced sharp
ly on covering by shorts. particularly
Allied Packers, which gained points.
Simms Petroleum was firm and buying
Of Guffey Gillespie sent the price to
new high. Invincibe Oil was several
points higher and Shell Trading deSel-
oped strength toward the close.

final stagger may be able to MAIN
tain equality with our own coun-
try, but her undisputed maritime
supremacy is about to go the way
of the seven others that were at
various times supreme. The group
of ancients-Tyre, Carthage and
Rome once ruled the seas, then
came the medieval Neptunates of
the Adriatic, then the Hanseatic
cities and, for a brief time before
the discovery of America, the gal
Icons of Portugal were in control.
The Spanish took the helm, to be
followed by the Dutch, and the de-
feat of Van Tromp a. few centuries
ago fixed Great Britain in the place
Of first sea power for which Drake
and Frobisher and Hawkins had
laid the foundations. Now all in
dications point to the United States
as the eighth of the worlds premier
maritime powers, and this period is
marked by the end of the famous
race between Wilson and linden
burg and the evolution of definite
American clinical type,
All of which are reflections un-

He may be of a definite British or

he may be as certainly Hebrew as
Aaron; he looks definitely like the
stay-at-home members of the race
whence he has sprung, and yet he
differs in appearance with equal
definiteness. Turn out this Ameri-

Immediately he is recognized as
