BONDS WERE SOFT,
GENERAL[YL0WER

NEW YORK. June 6.-Lower prices
were pretty much the rule in the bond
market today High money continued
to have a depressing effect and the
break in exchange was factor in the
foreign government group. Belgian
6s of 1925. the speculative value of
which is closely connected with the
price of franc exchange. dropped
down over point. This was a de-
cline of nearly points from the high
made several weeks ago when Bel
gian francs were at their tCp. Bel
gian 1873 were fraction lower at
?SI and French SIS were down bit
to 9Ssi. The new Frech loan was ef-
fectively supported at 81. Swedish
government SIS dropped below SO and
were pretty close TO their low for
the year of say.
Mexican government IS were off
another . points to 49,. They have
now lost more than points from the
extreme high at the time an immedi
garding recognition of Mexico and
the resumption of payments on the
Mexican debt.
Liberty 31xs Easier.
The recovery in Liberty 3iss had
evidently run its course on Saturday,
the bonds were lower today. There
appears to have been good deal of
speculative selling of this issue on the
talk that the new revenue Legislation
would deal more kindly with the sur
tax on the larger incomes. The latest
word is, however. that distinction
will be made between earned and un-
earned incomes. and that the latter
will be as heavily taxed as ever. This
being the case. tax-eXempt securities
would lose none of their attractive
ness. and the sharp rally in the Liberty
31ss at the close of last week was
due to a recognition of this fact.

New York;, February 0.-tSpeciaL)-- Probably the self-written' report by Thomas w. Lamont of some portions of
 his. conversation with MT. Harding at
 St. Augustine explains the confidence
 which has been expressed in the finan-
 cial district that in no way was this gocernment committee by President Will
 son and his advisers to the proposition
 that the allies indebtedness to the United States be cancelled or at least scaled out. For it has been observed that in spite of the persistent propa-
 panga which has come from Europe for
 the purpose of creating favorable opin- ion in the United States for the cancel lation of that debt, not any of those who are prominent in banking or<finan- cial affairs in this city have been of any other opinion than that our government was in no way committed to the proposl- ton by President Wilson and his ad- viSers when in consultation at Paris with the representatives of Great Britain and of France
 Furthermore it is the strong belier that some reasonable means will be found, perhaps some newly perfected financing be worked out. whereby in the course of time all of the debts incurred by the allies to the United States and to one another will be liquidated. But inquiry failed when attempts were made to learn whether this opinion was merely surrnise or was based upon knowledge. MT. Iamonts' statement to Senator Hard ing that no commitment of President Wilson expressed or implied, near or re- ! mote moral or otherwise, as to the
 handling of the allies indebtedness to
 the United States. justifies the surmise
 that Lamont may in confidential way
 have intinated to his friends in the
 financial district what he has already
 to1J f.ap fr,C Harding
 Mir Lamont is ranked among the ablest of constructive fnanciers, especially those who have succeeded in working out difficult problems of financing which in- voived the infusion of health into prop critics which had become embarrassed or demoralized For this reason he was chosen to represent the American bank I CTS and informally at least the Amer {, ican people at the conference last year 1 in China and in Japan. His mission in- volved the working out of the dlfrlcult economic and national politics which !, stood in the way of perfecting cordial agreement between China and Japan, an agreement which was necessary if there were to be an association of nations, i technically called 'consortium," which 1 would be able to give highly important
 financial aid to China.
 MIR. LAMONT'S MISSION l Some of MT. Lamonts friends were ap- prehensive that he had undertaken
 hopeless mission. They based this opin-
 ion upon information which they had
 received telling of irreconcilable differ fences between Japan and China. To sue ceed in his mission involved not only
 perfect command of modern hnancine principles, but also of real diplomacy i Mir Lamont demonstrated that he pos sessed thees qualifications, for his diplo- 1 macy triumphed. and Japan and China were. through his efforts, able to fine them selves of common mind.

Boston, February @.-To learn what IS one mans food and another's poison. ex- periments are being conducted at three Boston hospitals in protein sensitization. Patients are inoculated with proteins of foods and other substances and subse- quent cutaneous reactions or absence oi reactions indicate whether these quo teins are hostile or friendly,
 The research has been applied espe- cially to the study of causes of bron- cbial asthma and hay fever, but is be ing extended to other diseases, including indigestion and children's ailments. In applying the test, the physician makes a tiny scratch on the skin, usually of the arm, applies a drop of weak solution of sodium hydrate and in this places the proteins of whatever substance he sus- poets as the cause of the patients dis comfort. M
 If the protein is one to which the ra- tient Is sensitive, hive or red spot ap- pears half an hour after the test is ap- piled, and the physician knows that the cause of the aiiment has been found. If the patient Is a baker, flour dust may be under suspicion and proteins from that would be tested. In the case of a hostler proteins from horse hairs would be tried out first probably.
 Pollen from ragweed, timothy and other plants which are recognized sources of sneezing distress to many persons come within the scope of investigation
