The argument was as TO whether
the agreement was to call the game
at 500 or 5:15 in order to let Enid
catch train Pettigrew claimed
that the agreement was for 515.
Waring claimed it was 500 Every
last game of every series here. in
the past has been called at 5:15.
The train that the visitors catch
leaves Chickasha at 6:20. By calling
the game at 5:15. the visitors have
an hour and five minutes to catch
the train, and not one team has fail
ed to catch it. 1t does not seem
probable that Pettigrew would
change the usual custom and agree
to call the game at O'clock.

For the sake of argument, admit
that the agreement was to call the
game at ) o'clock If that is grant
ed, also grant that the umpire is
working for the interests of the
league. Would it not then have been
better for him to allow the game to
continue until the side was retired
or the game decided in the ninth in
ming? There was no immediate ne
cessity for calling the game at 5
o'cloC' There was no danger of Enid
missing the train Chickasha had
two more outs coming before the

ing for two more outs, or hit that

The Food Commission met in this town

into he stock Of sugar held by merchants
which disclosed that some 400 bags are
on hand in Christiansted, with little more
than half that amount in Frederiksted

the price would again be fixed at 16 to

whose resignation was accepted at the
same time at Yesterdays meeting o. the

TO be taken in a reconstruction Of the

result OF the taking over of Mr.. Durant' s
speculative stock holdings by the du
Pont interests. in conjunction with J. p.
Morgan & Co, announced several days
ago.
Mr.. Durant will continue as q member
Of the board of directors of the corpora
ton. The following statement was is
sued by the General Motors Corporation
Pursuant TO tha determination of w.
G.. Durant to retire from the pgesid=ncy
OF the General Motors Corporation az a
meeting of the board Of directors this
afternoon his resignation was accepted
and Pierre s. du Pont was elected his
successor. Mr.. du Pont represents the
large interest of E. |. du Pont de Ne
mours & Co. in the General Motors Cor
poration. No changes in the officers
personnel or In the conduct of General
Motors business is contemplated"
At the office of Mr.. Durant the follow
ing statement was given out:
In connection with Mr.. Durant's re-
tirement from the presidency of the Cen
eral Motors Corporation and his plans
for the future, Mr.. Durant says that he
intends to take a we'll earned vacation
and devote his time and attention for
the next few months to his personal af-
fairs"
Several days ago it was announced
that the du Pont interests together with
j. P. Morgan & Co. had acquired Mr.
Durant's speculative holdings of COM
mon stock of General Motors Corpora
ton and that a new company, the du
Pont Securities Corporation, had been
incorporated to take over this stock.
few more than 100000 shares of
stock were involved in the transaction.
the value of which. it was understood
at that time. was fixed somewhere be-
tween S40,000.000 and $5O,O00,000. a
part of the stock was paid for in cash
and the balance in securities of the
newly formed corporation.
At that time il was understood that
Mr.. Durant would resign as president
to be succeeded by Pierre S. du Pont,
and that he would be elected chairman
of the board of directors The failure
of the directors yesterday to name him
for that position, however. led to con-
siderable speculation as to whether that
plan had been abandoned. Mr.. Durant,
it is understood, has retained all of his
investment holdings OF General Motors

Great Britain and France are the
European bulwarks of credit; the
United States is the bulwark behind
them. All the other nations reckon
back to the pound and the franc as
a standard, says Utica Globe. Com
pared to the pound and the franc,
their currency is deprecated. The
pound and the franc, I'm turn, reckon
back to the dollar. Thus, when the
days fluctuations in Paris settle the
value in British and French gold OF
the other currencies, the real test is
whether or not today an italian Ira,
formerly worth 20 cents, the old value
of the French franc, is worth more or
less than 10 cents, while the French
franc is worth u cents; the Rou
manian franc more or less than 3
cents, the Austrian krone and the Rus
sian ruble more or less than 1 cent,
and the German mark more or less
than cents. Where after the Civil
war the British pound and the French
franc were the final standard, now the
American dollar IS the final standard
"in gold on sight"
