WINNING ON NERVE
Kid GIeason's White Sox Compelling
Admiration of Fans.


New York. July 11.-Admiration
must be expressed for the gritty strug-
gle being put up for the American
League championship race by Kid
Gleason and his White Sox.
The Yankees have been knocked
out of first place for the time being
and the Chicagoans have assembled
The main difference between the two
clubs seems to be a vast amount of
nerve, largely in favor of the Sox.
Gleason has three pitchers-real
ones-while Miller Higgins is able TO
trot out young army of slabmen, all
of them more or less stars. But with
his trio Gleason is showing great
finesse.
The Yankees undoubtedly are the
class of the league. so far as figuring
concerned. but there are circumstances
which compel attention of the fact
that Kid Gleason is manipulating the
reins over an organization that will
carry the fight to the last ditch.
Williams. Cicotte and Faber are
carrying the burden for the Gleason
gang, with only occasional assistance
from Shellenbach. Kerr and Danforth.
Higgins is able to throw Quinn,
Schneider into the fray in regular
order and to fall back on he has
Russell, Mogridge. O'Doul, and Nelson,
any one of whom would be welcomed
with a brass band by about seven
other clubs.
The going is bound to be tough for
the Yanks. GleasonS fighting spirit
is sunk deep into the hearts of the
Sox. They will put up an awful battle.

Glendale Is Pro

Glendale achieved a record during the war of which many towns of its size would be boastful Glendale is proud of its record but is not boastful. Glen dale went over the top in every bond issue, and was the first town in the val ley to go over the top in the Fifth loan which is now on. She expects to double her quota, this in spite of the fact that many have predicted that this loan would not go over in the same way the others did. Glendale got solidly behind the Red Cross. Many sacrifices were made in order to give money and time for the needs of this organization. In the different relief drives, Glendale did her part we'll
 Glendale's record is not due to her be- ing a wealthy community. The people felt that there was duty to perform, our boys were making greater sacrifices than any of us at home, some made the supreme sacrifice and failed to return with their comrades.

Telegraph Rates

Maybe Clarence II. Mackey, presi-
dent of the Postal Telegraph Com
pany, is right, and maybe Postmaster
Burleson is right; but certainly Mr..
Mackay's telegraph rate argument
makes stronger appeal to the public
than Mr.. Burleson's.
The postmaster-general says that
the rates had to be raised 20 per cent
because the telegraph and telephone
systems have been operating at loss
under the government control, and he
believes they will keep on losing no
matter who controls them. Mr..
Mackay replies that if the Postal
Telegraph system is returned to its
owners, it will lop off that 20 per
cent within twenty-four hours.
That would save the American
people $1,000,000 month. 1t would
save a good deal more than that if
the Western Union followed suit, as
it would probably be obliged to do.
Such sums are small compared with
some of the expenses the nation has
been up against lately; but because
of the very expensiveness of this war,
every million saved is a comfort.

A Helpful Money Market

The money market seems not only
Indifferent to the stock market, but
actually anxious to connive in it's rise.
Money has been getting easier as the
stock market has been getting more
active. Its ruling rate yesterday was
Az per cent, the lowest ruling rate in
several weeks. Saturdays bank state
ment showed a falling off in loans of
Sl33, 100000. This was largely the out
come of the maturity last Thursday of
an issue of Treasury certificates of
Indebtedness. Some banks contend
that the ease In call money is merely
transient and comes because the banks
do not like to tie up money in time
loans at rate of only 5h to 81 per
cent. The total announced yesterday
Of subscription of s5,249 sos 300 to

Years Greatest Market

Yesterdays stock market was in
many respects the most remarkable
session of the entire year to date
with no extraordinary news, after an
uninterrupted advance Of fifteen weeks
the buying power not only showed no
signs of falling off, but vastly gained.
No one could have complained that
the advance was confined to Especial
ties" Steel common added point. A
standard railroad stock like Atchison
gained 3$4 points. The advance was
most ecstatic in the motor shares,
with General Motors and Studebaker
leading with rises of more than 10
points each. Tire stocks followed close
behind. The coppers attracted attcn-
tion by unusual advances. The general
achievements of the market were so
significant that they are here set in

are acting as the bankers in the deal.
1t was said that the consolidation
would be effected by having the motor
truck company take over thA business
OF the right Martin property. The
lattcr, 1T was stated, would continue
TO manufacture airplane motors only as
the business was offered The activ-
tues OF the new corporation will be
confined mainly to the manufacture Of
motor trucks.
Official denial was made of reports
That the merger will be followed by
the retirement of the Wright Martin
preferred stock, of which $4,000 900 is
outstanding. 1t is likely, however, that
the per cent dividends which have
been cumulative since November /.
l9l6, Will be paid off in cash.
When the Wright Martin Aircraft
Corporation was Incorporated, on Sep
tember 13, 1916 it acquired the
Wright Company, the Glen l.. Martin

Inc, and the General Acronautic Com
pany Of America, inc. The plants are
located at Los Angeles, CAL, New

l., and Port Washington, L. |.
An interest of the company said
yesterday that it was intended to COM
piete It's contracts with the United
States government for Hispano- -Suiza
motors. After this has been done it
is estimated the company, after pavjnq
all debts and collecting all bills, will
have in the neighborhood of S7,OOO,-
o0o cash, plus the New Jersey plant,
which is estimated to be worth about
$4,000, 900.
The international Motor Truck Cor
poratlon was incorporated on Novem
Der S, 1916, to take over the business
of the reorganzcd International Motor
Company. 1t also owns the entire can
ital stock of the Saurer Moter Com
pahy, with plant at Plaintield, y. J.
The latter concern has the exclusive
license to manufacture and sell in this

General Motors

General Motors broke through
double par yesterday, and at closing
price of 204a4 was up 10 points for
the day. There was the usual accom-
paniment Of rumor, such as that the
concern would take over the Ford
company. Estimated net earnings for
the current year were put at a
minimum Of s75,OQO,ooO before taxes,
an increase of more than 100 per cent
over 1918 earnings. At its closing
price General Moters was selling at
the equivalent of 1924 for the old
stock before that was broken up into
five for one three years ago. The high
price then was $50, made on October
25, 1915. On May Is, 1918, the old
stock sold at 25. A person with the
patience to have held the stock, not
on margin, but just plain outright,
from that day to this would now see
a profit of 1000 per cent on his in
vestment, not counting his dividends.
