BUSINESS INDEXES
RTsINESS INDENES.

BIZ SIM eSS INDENE<S.
As reflected in the stock market
and at other points the traditional
new years optimism has abated
slightly Sentimental considerations
weigh less heavily than heretofore.
The tendency now is TO base hopes
and expectations upon actual devel-
Opments. The nation, after going 20
extreme. is riding on u fairly even
keel. The new year has undOub tedly
brought some Improvement, as sig
T fled by the reopening of many fac
tories. The mercantile agencies,
business writer's, and leaders In the
industrial. financial, and political
world comment on the signs OF pro-
CreSs which are increasingly evident.
Genuine revival nevertheless waits
upon completion OF the dellatOry
process which began last summer.
Steel. coal, building materials,
freight rates, wages and other i'm
portant items of cost remain high
and impose heavy fixed charges upon
all production. The movement of
basic prices and of wages during the
next three TO six months viii deter
mine whether establishment is to do
its work or prove ineffective. In all
probability the decline will extend
TO these ard other items before long.
Already a downward movement has
begun in iron and steel and building
materials and there is agitation look
ing toward reduction OF railroad
wages.
The alternative is the return Of
prices on farm products and many
raw materials TO a higher level. Lop-
sided price and wage reductions are
n anifestly unjust. REIMBURSEMENT
should affect all industries alike, yet,
as always in a period Of stress, some
lines OF business and some individ-
uals suffer more than others.
Railroad freight traffic has fallen
Is per cent or more below last year.

OCTOBER WAS A BAD MONTH FOR ARKANSAS ACCORDING TO
 BUREAU FIGURES.
MUCH COTTON IS DESTROYED
Dwellings Lest Were ss in Number Three Deaths Reportsd-one oS the Worst Records State Has
 Ever Experienced.

Little Notwithstanding to figures compiled from press reports ty the conservation division of tke Arkansas Fire Prevention Bureau. the mon h ef October was Q bad one from fire standpoint Tn this state. Sixty-three fires were reported during the month and it is probable there were many others that did not get into the pa pers; cotton being the heaviest loss.
 Thirty-six dwellings, were destroyed or badly damaged, and among the fl es were 12 barns and their contents reaching high figures; much corn, hay and other feed stuff was destroyed. Tn one case 200 cans Of fruit and vegeta- bles that had been put up for family use during the winter and stored un- der the barn were burned; in another case smokehouse caught from a blaze in the barn and together with its contents went up in smoke" ]" Thirty-eight head of horses and mules were burned to death during the month.
 In the dwelling fires defective fues" arc frequently given as the cause Of the blaze.
 or injuries resulting from fire dur- ing the month in Arkansas there were i6, three of them resulting in death.
 This is probably one Of the very worst fire records for one month the state has ever experienced, with tse exception Of months in which conf1a- grations occurred. The total figures available for the months fire losses foot up more than $2,5O0 600, accord Ing to the values given in the press reports of fires. There were several serious mercantile losses.

Circus Will Play Host to
Boy Who Spent His Rolf

The circus management, having
learned of the attempt made by Morris
Levine, eleven years old, of 242 Bruins
wick Avenue, Perth Amboy, last Satur-
day to see the circus, have decided
that the boy, accompanied by his moth

Morris, who runs errands for his
father, butcher, when he ia not at

circus. Mrs. Levine, who was busy at

Mrs. Whitney Only
Woman Named for
Big Job by Miller
New Member of Industrial
Commission to Take Oath
Friday; Urges Ability, No,
Sex, asRequisite for Office

Mrs. Resale Loew Whitney, who
will be sworn in Friday as a member
Of the State Industrial Commission, is
the only woman to receive an impor-
tant political appointment under Gov
ernor Miller
Mrs. Whitney said yesterday how
ever, that she had not received the
appointment as woman, but as a
lawyer and student of political ques-
tons.
There is no particular reason for
appointing women, az women, to politi-
cal positions" she said when seen at
the National Women's Republican Club.
All public and professional activities
Of women should be judged by the fit
ness of the individual candidates for
the job. | feel sure that no friend of
mine in suggesting me for this posi-
ton did so because ] was woman.
The industrial commission has been
reorganized by Governor Miller in
such way as to divide the powers OF
the commissioners into two classes, the
administrative and the judicial. The
administrative functions, such as the
appointment Of inspectors, will fall to
the Commissioner. The judicial func-
tons, which have to do with dispensing
compensation under the workmen 5
compensation act, fall to board OF
three commissioners. Mrs Whitney is
to be one of this board.
The work of the commission will be
increased this year by the cases which
will come under it's benefits through
the new law providing compensation
Tor industrial diseases.
Mrs. Whitney is the wife Of Travis
Whitney, former Public Service Com
missioner. She was active in the last
political campaign, travelling through
out the state on Governor Millcr's
campaign train. She win take the
place of Miss Frances Perkins, who
was appointed by Governor Smith.
