campaign periods. The market is be-
coming more and more lacking in alb
sorptlve powers, and new offerings are
with greater difficulty being intro
duced to investors. 1t is even init
mated that some of the recent offer
lngs that were heavily oversub-
scribed' are still in the hands of the
underwriters.
There are many causes for this state
of affairs, among which may be men
toned the attractive dividend rate and
conversion privileges of certain of the
higher grade preferred stocks, the dis
turbing influence of the railroad and
transit developments and the prevail
ing low quotations on government
bonds. An Improvement is looked for
after September first, as this is the
period when the dull summer season
logically ends; but this years market
will depend very greatly upon the
manner which current economic prob
lens are being solved.
1t has been noticeable in the bond
market of late that the demand for
railroad issues of the first class has
appeared only when price concessions
were made. Several of the foremost
railroad investment bonds in the last
| day or two have been selling on a
basis to yield the buyer about 7 pei
cent, issues which not SO long age
commanded quotations that made 3
4H per cent yield look rather high
Some of the selling which has caused
prices to slip away gradually in the
last six weeks has, presumably, re-
suited from the liquidation Of collater
al behind stock market loans, bu
offerings have been reported at the
same time OF investment holdings
scared out by the unpleasant situation
of the railroads under the radical pro
posals of the unions. In investment
circles the appearance OF strong
movement for legislation to return tn,
carriers to their owners is AWAITED
with eagerness.

These certificates are issued in re-
Spouse to a widespread demand for

price of Thrift Stamp, to $1,000,
Same as Savings Stamps.
Bearing the same rate OF intcres'
as War Savings Stamps, these new
certificates will mature, also, on the
same date-January |, 1924. They are
redeemable in cash on the same terms
have the same tax exemptions, and in
addition are registered and non

Woman Who Operated Red Cross Hotel In London Is
 Held for Embezzlement

London, November 15-(Reciproeal News Service )--Twarg the lute melancholishly. For mother is in the jug. It is sad, sad story. Thousands of Yank dough- boys and gobs were deeply devoted to Mrs. Margaret Robertson, landlady of the Strand Imperial Hotel, 14s-1i5 Strapd, London, operated until recently by the American Red Cross.
 She sent out their laundry She darned their socks. She took spots out of uni- ferns. She nursad them when they had that "heady' feeling in the morning, She was a most obliging foster mother. She even acted as banker and kept their rolls of bills so that no evil creature should snag 'em.
 She is even keeping some of the money yet. When the Red Cross decided to shut down the Strand Imperial, mother had deposits from many of the gobs at U. $. Navy headquarters-s225 from one-and the doughboys at the A. E. F. base sec tion.
 Mother disappeared and the boys have not been able to cash in. That isn't all She drew up the hotels checks which ha to be countersigned by an auditor of the American Red Cross.s When the hotel was closed down her bank account was stopped, but she wasn't. She bamboozled the auditor into signing a flock of checks made out to firms that had regularly supplied the hotel Mother indorscd the checks and got about s2500
 Now as the bank acted in good faith being ready to honor American Red Cross check even when there were no funds on hand--the liquidation comms- sion intends to make good. of course. Mother" also ran up a few Red Cross bills. She bought $500 worth of chocolates
 about 300 pounds-in one month. No doubt her 'laddies'' had given her an enormous sweet tooth with gifts lof their canteen chocolate
 We'll, they found mother at an ad- dress where her last delivery of choco- Hates was made. She was sent up for three months for one embezzlement, As soon as she is out she will be rearrested, and so on ad infinitum She is about 45 years old.
