FINANCES AND MARKETS


 NEW YORK, Aug. 19.-Labor condi- tions and other indications of social unrest, notably the nationwide price agitation, accounted mainly for the further break in stock market prices this week.
 The decline was not unwelcome in conservative financial circles, how ever, since it had the effect of cor recting, to a considerable extent. the fictitious or unstable position of many of the more speculative issues.
 Another feature which doubtless would have given a check to bullish operations on anything like the recent scale. was complete collapse of foreign exchange. French and Italian rates fell to unprecedented discounts, with fresh weakness in sterling remittances.
 Steps were taken during the week to exchange conditions by the organiza- ,tion of a credit corporation whose chief function will be the placing of funds to meet foreign obligations in this market. It is generally recognized. however, that readjustment' of ex- change is well nigh impossible without substantial aid from the foreign gov ernments most concerned. The money market was unusually easy as to call loans, supply most often exceeding de- mand, but this condition resulted more from reduced stock dealings than from any more important reason. Bankers realize that the money market will be put to it's severest test in the impend- ing domestic and foreign demands.
 Apart from the unsettlement created by labor disturbances, the industrial situation was rather mixed. Better conditions prevailed as to iron and steel. in which greater production was reported, while the leather and textile industries were measurably affected by the high cost movement.

 MESA H|GH SCHOOL

MESA, Aug. 17.-School Superinten- dent H. E. Matthews will leave tonight for Colorado and other points east for the purpose of buying equipment for the new addition to the Mesa Union High school and also furnishing for the present building.
 Work is being rushed as rapidly as possible on the addition, the room be- ing absolutely essential to handling the increased number of pupils who will attend Mesa High school this fall. While there may be some little delay in starting the high school term. owing to the improvements under way in the building, the grades will suffer no de- lay on account thereof. MT. Matthews stated recently that the total enroll- ment for last year exceeded the esti- mates made for the year. since in the entire system more than 1,600 pupils were enrolled at some time during the year.

fish reasons, would gladly see the numbers of writers multiplied The editors are constantly scrambling for good stories.
 The scenario editor cares nothing about your race, color or previous con dition. It's your good story he wants, and be will not only pay you well for it. but feel lucky to do so. If you can produce a story that can be told in action, the scenario editor will be glad you're alive.
 Let us be perfectly clear. It takes as much technical skill to produce a successful moving picture as a suc- cessful novel. But the novelist works alone and turns out finished product The moving picture story is only the first step toward the finished picture which must of necessity be the product of many minds. The trained scenario writer, the director, the camera man the actors and various other special ists all contribute their shares.
 But the story comes first!
 If you have a story in your system the next article will suggest a way to start to get it out.

good, plain stuff that anybody can un- derstand. He's an indifferent speller. But he can tell stories that are DE- FERENT.
 Everybody, tfley say, has at least one good story in his or her system. The difficulty Has been in telling it. The stage and he public prints have heretofore been the only avenues of expression open to the public story teller. And success in either drama or fiction requires treat technical skill.
 But the moviniy pictures have created a new market. The opportunity to write a picture scenario is open to every man or woman with a real story to tell and the ability to write intelli- giple English.
 It is a "bull" market, too. It will be better six montts from now than it is today. Available stories are being used up at the rate ef 20,000 a year in the United States alone, and the scarcity threatens to bec)me a famine.
