MARKET TEMPER
MORE CHEERFUL
One Group of Stocks After An
other Pushed UP With Con-
siderable Confidence
MONEY RATES IGNORED

New York. Jan. 1.-The New York
Evening Suns closing financial review
today says:
Denoting confidence on tho part of
SPECTATORS and investors that the now
year will be a period of remarkable
activity and prosperity for ali lines of
industry. the first stock exchange ses-
sion of the year was marked BIZ ad =
vancing prices for securities. So far
as the credit situation was concerned.
conditions were not favorable for active
speculation for the advance. but high
money rates were ignored today as they
have been for the last week. The re-
newal rate fo- call loans this morning
was Is per cent.
An accumulation of buying orders
awaited the onenng of the market and
initial quotations were from l to
points higher in the active industrials.
From then on, during the greater part
of the session, first one group of stocks
and then another was pushed upward
with considerable confidence. Trading
was most active during the intervals
when advances were under way and
turned dull on the setbacks. Stocks
were apparently in scant supply except
ON a scale up.
No important news came out oyer the
holiday recess bearing on the market.
The mere lapse of time, however, bring
ing the date nearer when some sort of
peace settlement will be achieved,
played its part in promoting optimism in
speculative circles. According to ad
vices from Washington developments of
a definite nature are soon to be expected
from the conference party leaders.
Railroad shares were slow to respond
to the improvement in the industrial
stocks, but were generally firm. The
motor stocks were the early leaders,
with Studebaker above 1l2, up nearly
4 points. For sentimental reasons, an
upward movement in the motor group
frequently comedies with the opening of
the automobile show here, and this was
the reason assigned for the strength in
this group.
Pool operations in a large number
of induStrials were obvious. Interna
tional Paper was a most conspicuous
example selling up more than . points
to a new high figure. At one time or
another such properties as American
International, American Can, United
States Realty. Worthington Pump, Ma
tional Enameling. American Woolen
and others enjoyed rapid advances of
to + points.
May Department Stores sold at a
now high price. Consolidated Gas. SELL
ing ex rights, rose above ST. Inter
borough bonds were weak. although the
company has, temporarily at least,
avoided receivership.

New York. Jan. 2.--The new year
opened with a strong stock market to-
day. although it took il some time to
strike its real pace. There was a strong
opening. which was followed by reac-
tions, theu irregularity and thcu after a
halting period prices were pushed up
with vigor.
All during the session there had been
a significant undercurrent of strength

tious.
Pool and clique operations occupied a
very prominent part in the days pro
ceedings, rs suggested in the constant
shifting of leadership from one grouT
of stocks to another and the pre- emin E
ence given to the Industrial specialties
Ono of the more encouraging features
attending the days operations was the
fact that the trading was most active
when the forward movement was wei
under way and always turned dull on al
the reactions. This did not exactly
denote turnirg .point in tho market
but il did reflect decided improve

supply of the better class OF stocks
had been pretty well cleaned up. Seant

NEW YEAR STARTED WITH
STRONGER LOCAL MARKET
Marked Contraction in Both Stock and Bond Dealings bu
Prices Were Generally Higher

What the local market lacked in
breadth it more than made up in
strength. There was a marked con-
traction in the volume Of dealings il
both stocks and bonds, in the latter
being quite pronounced. Prices ruled
fractionally better, but the trading in
all directions lacked the snap which
attended the dealings in the closing ses =
sions of last year.
While the feeling ir local financial
circles was generally more cheerful, the
more conservative bank interests stated
they did not look for a broad improve
ment until money conditions shaped up
better. Money conditions were still de
scribed as pronouncedly tight by the
officipls of all the leading loaning insti =
TUTORS. AS matter Of fact, accord
ing to the testimony generally given by
these officials there was relatively little
money to be had at any price. Several
large corporation loans were known to
have been successfully negotiated to-
day at per cent for six months. This,
however, was exceptional paper and in
normal times would have been grabbed
up at 3 per cent
The barriers of the morey market
left little opportunity of widening mar =
ket interest and with the operations in
connection with the income tax ac-
counts completed there was naturally q
big falling off in transactions.

Chicago, Jan. 2.--Fundamental con-
ditions in corn were bullish today and
the market displayed strength.
A cold wave over the West, which
led to fears that the movement would
be retarded. caused general buying
early through commission houses. Jan
uary was the leader in the bulge that
followed.
Later prices receded in sympathy
with the cash article and on reports
that many empty cars had been ordered
to the western railroads to load grain.
Evidence of material reduction in
the outstanding short interest also
served to check fresh purchasing.
Toward the close the demand improved
and prices again turned upward.
Oats followed the action of corn.
Commission houses, prominent profes
sional shorts and local pit traders
bought early and prices moved upward.

SAYS SHIPPING
BOARD 'GOUGED'
ON REPAIR WORK

New York, Dec. 21.-ChargeS OF
excessive and "eXorbitant' costs
made by American shipyards for
repairs to vessels owned by the
United States shipping board and
private firms. We're made today by
Commander r. d. Gatewood, head
of the boards repair and construc-
ton department.
Excess cost of repairs. ranging
as high as $3.50 per cent above the
list price" Commander Gatewood
said, were working u serious hand
leap to the successful competition
of an American merchant marine
with foreign flag vessels. He APP
pealed for cooperation of the ship
owners in efforts of his department
to bring these prices down 70 'rea-
sonqble' figures.
Commander Gatewood spoke at
a luncheon Of American shin own
ers at which Frederick A. Thomp-
son, recently appointed vice chair
man Of the shipping board, was "a
guest. Mr. Thompson spoke In
support of Commander Gatewood $
plan and said he had the full
support of the board, and no in
flucnce, direct or indirect. is going
to alter that position"
Detailing some of the alleged
excessive costs which he had in
vestigated Commander Gatewood
said that the present monthly bill
of repairs of American ships
amounted to about Sc 500,0 600. This
amount. he said, was 100000 in
excess of what it should be.

DAUGHTER RETURNED TO
FATHER AFTER SEARCH
LASTING SEVEN YEARS

Douglas, Ariz., Dec. IA
search of seven years recently
ended in the restoration to father
of his daughter who either had
been stolen or purchased by Il
gypsy band.
There were exciting days at the
gypsy camp near here when ELL
Miguel, native Of Peru, resident of
Charlottesville, S. c., and horse
buyer for the government, arrived
to claim his child, now 10, but only
u when she disappeared from the
South Carolina home. Rosa now
has a husband, Spera Yannis, and
a baby child,
Miguel recently learned of the
gypsy band, travelling by automo
bile now instead of the traditional
covered wagons A private de-
tective was put on the job ana
when Rosa was located Miguel was
summoned.
The gypsies assert that Rosa had
been purchased from Miguel when
she reached the age of IL years,
the legal age in the gypsy code.
The price, they said, was $4,000.
After some persuasion, Miguel man
aged to get back his daughter but
the gypsies insisted on keeping
Rosa's daughter for when a girl
becomes II years old she is worth
money to the gypsies for then she
can begin telling fortunes and
supply the income necessary to
run fleet of automobiles and buy
food for the camp.

though Prof. 0. A. Weese OF the
university didn't say so he prob
ably felt like accusing the county
assessor of putting him in the jani-
tor class by assessing him for two
cars in 1919. Professor Weese de-
clared that he had only one auto

double taxes on it. The treasurer
was instructed to make no further
attempts to collect taxes on a see

that $175 was all 1t was worth and
