SEEK TO CARRY LIMITED

Citizens Want Right to Make Calls
Not Used During Month at
Some Other Time.

When the Public Utilities Commits
sion holds a hearing at the District
building at 10 o'clock on January IA
on the petition Of the Chesapeake and
Potomac Telephone Company for con-
tinuation of existing rates, spokesman
for citizens associations probably will
renew request for the privilege of
carrying forward from one month to
another unused calls on limited tele-
phones
The telephone company at one time
sold limited service on the basis of
500 calls a year, but during the war
This was changed to q basis Of fifty
calls a month
Under the old system a limited sub
scriber- who used forty calls in jan
uary could use the remaining ten in
future months of the year, the only
stipulation being that he keep within
800 during the twelve months.
Under the present schedule limited
subscribers are allowed fifty calls a
month, which is equivalent to 600 a
year, but unused calls from January
cannot be made in succeeding months.
in other words. If limited subscriber
makes forty calls in January now he is
not allowed sixty in February.
In the last telephone decision rem
dered in May, the commission said II
considered this question, but found
that the monthly basis of fifty calls is

bacco growers stopped the tobacco
sales at Maysviale warehouses this
morning about an hour after the
opening sales, the reason given being
that 'they ISIuS6 10 give lncIE SOUoCe

a cent to 20 cents. General disorder
prevailed.
Growers from six counties, Mason,
Lewis, Bracken and Fleming, KY.

ed around the buyers, cursing and
yelling and pushing buyers back.

growers and threats against buyers
during which knives were drawn, the

Cooler heads among the hundreds of
persons attending the sales prevented
trouble.
Growers declared that to accept the
prices offered by buyers meant bank
ruptcy.
Shortly after the market here was
closed it was reported that a crowd
of several hundred farmers had start

miles distant, with the intention Of
forcing the closing of the Bourbon

FATHERS VETO STOPS
EL0PERS' MARRIAGE
Ernest B. McLear and Miss Joseph
Inc Dunn Came From Rich
mond to Wed.

Miss Josephine Dunn, Richmond,
Va, third-year pupil in Virginia
State Normal School, left home yes.
terday morning with Ernest r. Nc
Lear, twenty-four years old, Detroit,
Mich, and came here to get married.
A long-distance telephone message
from Joseph B. Dunn, the young
lady's father. resulted in interference
by the police; and the lady was de-
tanned until her father reached here
last night.
Papa Dunn refused to listen to any
suggestion of marriage Of his daugh-
ter and McLear, and made it clear
what might happen II the young man
returned to Richmond on the train
with him last night.
It appears that Mclean. a former
resident Of Richmond, courted the
normal school pupil prior to the
time he left Richmond and went to
Detroit to engage in work with a
financial institution. The couple be-
came engaged and the young man
prospective bride.
Arrangements were made for him
to meet Miss Dunn yesterday morn
ing to elope. He was on hand and an
early train landed the couple here
early in the afternoon.
They appeared at the Office Of Col.
Knoll. marriage license clerk, and had
made application for a, license. but the
receipt of the telephone message sug-
gested the advisability of police in
reference rather than issuance Of the
license, and McLear and Miss Dunn
were escorted to police headquarters.
I'm eighteen years DID," the dis
appointed young lady declared, "and
not seventeen as you say my father
reported"
Gwen If you are eighteen Detec-
tive Cornwell told her. your father
has a right to request your detention
as fugitive from home, and you will
have to remain in custody until he
gets here"
Father came on the first train, and
last night Miss Dunn spent her time
at home instead Of on a railroad train
bound for her prospective new home
in Detroit.

Libertys Lead Way in For
ward Observation-Disclosures
Also in Pace.

. NEW YORK. January 4.-There was
no letup today in the forward tend
ency of the bond market. The power
in just at the close of 1920. and which
has been steadily developing since
then. kept on, the buying coming from
all directions. Liberty bonds led the
way up another half to three-quarters
of point all the way around Since
the stoppage Of tax selling this group
has gained fully two points.
The Improvement has been equally
marked in foreign government issues.
United Kingdom s<s of 1887 rose
another point today and at SIS COM
pared with low of SEX of last
week.
The Belgian Us sold today at 81, as
against last weeks low of So. City of
Paris 6s- which were recently down
Lyons and City OF Marseille were also
stronger These French city bonds were
helped by this mornings report that
French government representatives now
over here are at work on a program to
take care Of all French obligations ma
turing in the United States during the
current year. This win require S75. 000,-
900 to meet the Paris loan and SIS 600 =
900 to provide for that portion Of the
French cities which were sold in this
country.
Some Notable Features.
Among the industrisls there were
several notable features. One was
the active demand for Westinghouse
Electric rs, which carried them up
20 S5H, or nearly 2 points above their
recent low United States Rubber
rs got up to 81 after opening at 90,
and the Rubber IS gained another
point to II. Steel sinking fund SIS
were higher at S3ia and Chile Copper
Ss were active and strong up to 81
Traction bonds were certainly not
helped by the failure of the new Gov
ernor Of New York on announcing his
plan for a single commission to deal
with New York traction affairs to
say anything on the fare question.
Railway bonds maintained their
previous rise and some of them went
higher. West Shore As were in de-
mand at a point advance to 70&
Wabash first SIS got up to 49, Big
Four IS, which less than a week ago
were quoted at Sc, sold at 80. Erie

Richmond Reserve Banks
Orders to Local Institutions.
Washington Gas Firmer.

The Richmond Federal Reserve
Bank has served notice on local bank
ers that in sending down commercial
paper for rediscount. when accom-
panied by new statements of condition
from makers of the paper, it will be
necessary that all inventories shown
in statements be made at the market
prices of today and not at those OF
last year.
This may be taken as an indication
that the officials of the bank consider
that the final liquidation period has
not been passed: that there are still
some further settlements necessary
before the clouds roll away
There have. however. been but very
few returns of commercial paper sent
down by Washington banks for re-
discount. fact that bankers say re-
fleets the satisfaction of the Richmond
institution, with the statements OF the
merchants of this city.
The request for new statements of
condition, is but an evidence or the
watchfulness of the federal reserve
banks of the country on the process
of liouidatfop and the slow. but grad

tons.
