Renewed weakness yesterday in At
lantic Gulf and West Indies shares,
which carried the price of the common
stock down to 32h the lowest price

cence of the company about giving out
any information regarding its venture
in oil, it is said that number Of
stockholders or representatives Of
stockholding interests are in favor Of
trying to force showdown in tire mat

said: "Without fear of being accused

case. The management went into the

to abandon the oil field it would seem
that at least it owes to the stockhold-
ers an explanation of its latest policy"

The Dollar in Foreign Exchange

The foreign exchange market ruled
frmer yesterday and rates on financial
centers in many quarters of the globe
advanced noticeably. Demand sterling
was firm and moved up cent to
S2.89aa, virtually at the average level
for the year.
French francs rallied strongly in the
late trading and advanced almost to
the 7-cent level, indicating cessation of
pressure in London, which dealers. at
tributed to selling to meet obligations
that could not wait for a reparat1ons
settlement plan. Government expenses
arising from the military program also
probably caused some selling.
Belgian francs advanced sharply and
Swiss francs got above II cents. Dutch
and German rates were higher and the
advance recorded in Austrian exchange
Monday was maintained. scandinavian
rates were irregular, but fluctuations
were small.
Rates on Shanghai andN Hong Kong
were higher and the Indian rupee
moved up a cent to 26 cents.
An irregular trend prevailed IN the
Americas, with Argentine and Chilean
rates up and Brazilian and Uruguayan
sl;ohtlv lower. Canadian exchange
showed no improvement.

Hollyh0cks.

There may be flowers stylisher
Than these old fashioned blooms,
With prouder airs and lordied grace
And flasher perfumes;
But my old heart calls hollyhocks
The lovliest flowers that blow,
Because in grandma S old back yard
They blossomed long ago.
I never see hollyhock
In any kind of place
But suddenly seem to see
Grandmother's smiling face;
And life becomes a garden spot
Where loves white wonders grow,
With fragrance dripping on the heart
From lands Of Long Ago.
I cannot guess what heaven is,
But maybe it will be
A glad renewing Of the days
That meant the most to me;
And maybe grandma's face will shine
Beside cabin door
All lit with hollyhocks, and
Can be boy once more.

Memorial day should be regarded

the men who devoted so much to their
country cause.
