six Per Cent Money.

There was not a single fluctuation IN
the call money rate on the New York
Stock Exchange yesterday. a rather UNI
usual occurrence in this market. The
rate opened at per cent. for both
classes and remained at that rate at all
of the four calls of the day. It had
been anticipated that call money prob
ably would work into higher levels In
view OF the Saturday bank statement
showing a deficit of $4,000 less than
reserve requirements, but outside of fur
nishing bear ammunition. which was
rather oyerdone in the morning hours.
the statement was without effect on the
call rate. The deficit is attributed en-
tireiy TO the tide of money moving
toward the grain centres, but bankers
anticipate that last week saw the crest
of this wave and that the deficit will
be overcome by the time a new state
ment will be due. Incidentally this is the
second time since the organization OF
the Federal reserve system that a deficit
has occurred. In the earlier instance
which took place In June, the situation
was adjusted automatically by q rise In
the call money rate, which attracted
funds from interior institutions. Time
money was inactive.

Investment buying.

Ono outstanding fact in the stock
market Is that an unusually largo vol
ume of shares have been removed bodily
from the market to safety deposit vaults
Just how far this has gone in any issue
would be difficult to say. but brokers on
the floor of the exchange say that the
floating supply In many issues has de-
creased remarkably in recent weeks. In
its last bulletin the Federal Reserve
Bank comments on this situation, saying
that 1t has been one OF the Characters
tics of the market that Investment buy
ing has revealed itself in a period OF
undoubted speculation" Continuing, the
bulletin says of its experts observations
of the market No inconsiderable por-
ton of the stocks purchased has been
taken out of the market. Some of the
shares so removed have been purchased
outright for investment Others have
become outright purchases through the
force of market conditions The fact
that an unusual amount of stock has
been taken from the market accounts
in part for the rise In prices. The float
ing supply OF listed shares has decreased
and the demand appears TO have risen.
As usual the stocks which attract the
speculator have risen and receded vio-
lently and the banks have been disposed
to discriminate against them at times
in an extraordinary degree"
The sun., 1919-08-26

There are OF course two sides to the
controversy over the clerical delays
which have gummed up business consid-
erably in the financial district. The
machinery of the Stock Exchange Is rot
wholly to blame, although 1t has proved
inadequate to handle long succession
OF million and a half share days. Brok-
ers complain that the trust compaRies, as
transfer agents, are partly TO ble ne for
the delays through lack of clerical help
1t is reported that transfers OF stock
which under ordinary circumstances
should take no longer than twenty-four
hours often take from three to four days
This of course holds up financial trans
action for that length Of time and nat
urally keeps the brokers' money tied UP
uIrtil the transfer be- returned. Another
and entirely different complaint is laid
at the door OF corporations whose stock
is traded in on the exchange For some
reason or other, probably the heavy de-
mand for blanks, their printers are not
keeping up with the demand. and the
transfer agents are running short of
blank share certificates 1t has led to
the practice by the trust companies of
Jumping the transfers, a method wholly
unsa tisfaotory to the brokers. A case
that is typical was traced yesterday A
brokerage house sent twelve 100 share
lots of Oklahoma Producing and Rein
ing for transfer and received back one
certificate for 200 shares II had to
go back to be retransferred, necessitat-
ing further delay. for the twelve lots
were owned by as many different GUS
toners and the 1,200 share certificate
was not therefore sood transfer.

the advance. 1t was predicted freely
that compromise measure of increased

the President is giving his personal at

that the Senate and the House are work.

CENTRAL OF GEORGIA REPORTS
Government Earns PROFIT From
Road of SsO7,sOb

The Government earned a profit OF
sSO7SO5 out of the operations OF the
Central of Georgia Railway. according to
its annual report. issued yesterday. The
rental was $3.450,903, and the actual net
income under the Federal management
was S4.25S.70S.
Based on the rental contract, the net
income, after charges and taxes amount
ing to 81 ,205,2SG, was equivalent to 500
a share on 100000 common after an
allowance for the preferred dividends.
The decrease In net income compared
with that of the preceding year was ST.
435,339. II the road had had the benefit
of its actual earnings statisticians figure
that tho amount earned on the common
would have equalled $22,25 a share. In
1917 the earnings on the common were
S34.S1 IL share.

the International General Electric plans

business Is the statement Of one-of its
directors. The departure to-day OF
President Swope for Europe lends color
10 the belief that announcements OF In
tercst to the electrical trade may BE ex-
pected within a short time. General
Electric has grouped all of its foreign
possessions into one corporation, the IN
ternational General Electric, of which
$4,000, 900 is 7 per ocnt. cumulative

sIncIah OIL.

Persistent buying OF Sinclair Oil
forced that stock into the market lime
light yesterday and brought a sharp
advance from the low of 56h to 59h
The close was at 5Sh. an advance OF
point. The move was based on the
announcement that the Sinclair Con-
solidated OIL Corporation of Delaware
had been dissolved. thus paving the
way tor Its successor. the Sinclair Con-
sclidated OIL Corporation of New York.
to consolidate with the Sinclair OIL and
Refining Corporation and the Sinclair
Gulf Corporation on a share for sha re
basis. The advance, at least, had the
effect OF bringing the Sinclair shares
on the curb and on the big board to
a parity and stopping the arbitrage.
which has been going on between the
two markets. More than $4,000 shares
OF Sinclair OIL were TURNED over yes

RANCHERS PROTEST

Numerous protests are being made
by ranchers Of the Fast Side against
action of contractors empolyed IN cut
ting the grade of the Highway be
tween here and Mosier. in failure to
clear away debris, blasted eff the eiift-
side in widening the route which now
blocks the old grade. The blockade
makes necessary a detour over a road
impossible to heavy loads. The con-
tractors, il is said, promised TO hasten
the work. but NJ debris has been re
moved for the past 10 days.
The contractors claim that the steam
shovel intended for the work was
wrecked while en- route from Timber
to this city. The protesting ranchers,
however, declare that one of the two
shovels working just east Of the block.
ade should be put on the work OF
clearing the debris.
County authorities are urging the
contractors to hasten the lifting OF the
blockade, which necessitates the en-
ployment of three shifts of watchmen.
at an expense of Sl2 per day. for aid
ing motorists and teamsters in making
the detour.

THE FIRST THOUSAND

When a man gets a thousand dol
arr saved up there are always oppor-
tunties for good investment 1t Is
hard to place much less than that.
That is why wealthy men who are self
made advise young men to begin
early and save the first thousand.
Until we went TO war, in order to
get thousand dollars together one
had to go to the bank and put a little
away each month or each week or
tuck part of his salary away in an
old sock. 1t was troublesome to go
to the bank and the sock was too
handy
Now, however there is an easy way
to get that first thousand The an
swer is Wa Savings Stamps. In them
the government of the United States,
backing those stamps with a guaran-
tee of four per cent interest com
pounded quarterly, opens the way
One can begin with two bits"

TOOTH ODD FELLOW
BIRTHDAY SOON

One hundred years ago on April 20
Thomas Wildey and four associates as
sembled in Baltimore and organized
the first Odd Fellow lodge in America.
known as Washington Lodge No. /.
which is still in existence. From this
humble beginning Odd Fellowship has
grown to an organization of over two
and one-fifth million members. recOg
nized as the strongest in the world.
The invested funds of the lodge amount
TO over S73. coo, eco and it annually pays
over So. SOC, 600 in relief of members in
sickness and distress.
The three Hood River valley lodges
have completed arrangements for the
celebration Of the centenary OF their
order Saturday of this week and large
delegations from the Odell and Park
dale lodges, as well as from Mosier,
are expected.
A parade composed of all Odd Eel
lows and Rebekahs will form at Idle
wilde hall at 3 p. m. after which an
open meeting will be held in the hall,
to which the general public is cordially
invited. Attorney Hartwig, who is
probably the best posted man in this
part of the state on the history and
working of the Order will deliver the
centennial address, which will be sup.
plemented by musical and vocal num-
bers.
At six D. m. all Odd Fellows and
Rebekahs and their families will re.
turn to the hall, where supper will be
served. This will be in the nature of
a.basket supper, each family bringing
something to eat. while the committee
will prepare coffee and provide dishes
and silverware.
After supper the members and their
families and friends will enjoy a gen.
eral social evening. Kolstad's orches-
ira will furnish music for dancing and
tables will be provided for cards.
All members of the various branches
of the order, and especially resident
and visiting members who are not
affiliated with the local lodges are
urged to participate in the parade and
other features of this celebration.
Tonight the local |. o. o. F. lodge
will confer the third degree on large
class of candidates composed of ii
from Mosier and five from their own
lodge. 1t is expected that big dele
cation will come down from Mosier to

AphidS Appear

Aphids in alarming numbers have
made their appear rance here at this
early date. Truck gardeners and those
who are growing Victory gardens on
vacant lots fear a repetition of last
spring, when the hordes of insects de
stroyed early peas and other vege-
tables. Rose buhses are already fairly
swarming with the insects. and they
have also appeared on pea vines.
Constant spraying with tobacco
preparations or sheep dip. the latter in
light solution, it is said, will kill the
pests.

There are 1900 war wounded and sick

Preside at San Francisco Most Of
these men from the Argonne, Belleau
Wood. st. Mhiel, Chateau Thierry, are
being remade bodily and spiritually.
OF the two phases of their regeneration,
the spiritual is perhaps the more diff
fcult. For when a man Is mangled OF
his legs, or his arms, or his eyes, he is
apt to lose more than those physical as

with it his confidence and his self-re-
