Shorts Growing Bolder

With the exception of American
Locomotive and Famous Players, the
usual active stocks attracted little at
fentior in yesterdays dull market, and
observers saw in the situation evi-
denee that the shorts were becoming
mere active Northern Pacific Great
Northern and some of the other lead
ing rail shares were subjected to pres
sure for time. and several of the oils
were in supply. Outside interest Was
at minimum and activity of the pro
fessional element accounted for most
of the business. Traders are less en-
thusiastic now over the possibilities
of continued upward trend, and the
hullish sentiment noticed about the
middle of July has disappeared to a
considerable extent. In fact, some COM
mission houses have suggested that
any rise in the current week be
used to sell stocks. Some are inclined
to believe thai the market will settle
back TO the low point reached the
middle Of June.

Brazil Gets London Credits

jacques Weinhcrger Of Blair & Co.,
Inc, was at his desk yesterday after
long stay In South America, dur
ing which he visited Brazil, Argen-
tina, Uruguay and Chile. Mr.. Vein
berger said he found business fat in
the countries he visited, the general
stagnation being due largely to the
disturbed condition of the exchanges
While in Brazil he noted somewhat
better sentiment in the coffee trade
there, due partly to the arranging in
London and on the Continent OF ster-
ling credit of approximately 1000 600

Cut in California Crude

There has recently taken place cut
OF 35 cents barrel in the price OF Cal
ifornia crude oil. bringing the present
quotations down to from S1.Io to 50,
according to the gravity of the oil.
What is of greater public interest is
that the reduction in crude is accom-
panied by a cut of cents q gallon in
the price of gasoline. The last pre-
vious lowering Of the quotation for
California crude was on May l3, when
minimum prices OF Sl.35 and $3.50 be-
came effective. pre-war prices ranged
from Is cents to 107 g. barrel.

More Sugar Contract Suits

An echo of the high sugo- prices of
last year was heard yeste. gay when it
was announced that the American
Sugar Refining Company had begun
suits against more wholesale grocers
whom il charged with refusing to carry
out contracts fer sugar made at 221s
cents pound. The company lost large
sums in the sugar slump year ago
when it was forced to take loss on
its products which had been contracted
for at record high prices. It has been
successful in several suits.

American Locomotive

A good many people in Wall Street
brokerage Offices yesterday professed
to know the main features of the
American Locomotive half year report,
although the official statement is be-
ing issued to stockholders to-day. This
may have accounted for the early
strength in the stock, which sold up
TO 86M, while other members of the in
dustrial list were suffering from lack
of buying orders. The company's re-
port will undoubtedly meet the ex-
pectations of the Street. although
gross business fell off about $4,000
600 from the six months ended De-
cember 81, 1920. Profits available for
dividends were only about s4O0 900 less
than the surplus in the last half OF
1920. Moreover, the company reduced
its inventory from $15,119, 900 to So
555, 900. Some idea of the company's
present financial strength was indi-
Gated in the statement that no loans
were payable ana that it had in its
treasury sl0.750,000 u. IS. Treasury
certificates Of Indebtedness and 50 Oo0,-
900 New York City securities. Present
income from interest on securities
owned falls short Of the preferred
dividend requirements by only $500, 900.

was so bad that had to give UP my
work The kidney secretions were
highly colored and contained a sedi-
ment, showing that my kidneys were
in an awful shape. They caused
burning sensation in passage, too.
L heard my father speak of Doan's
Kidney Pills and up to this time I had
been in bad shape. After using
Doan's I noticed improvement right
from the first box. About three
boxes cured me and the cure has

NO FARMERS. STRIKES

Do you remember the talk of
farmers strike" last fall? The
farmers were going to stop produc-
ing food because they were not paid
enough for it to cover the cost and
give them a decent profit. Well, con-
slider the latest reports of the wheat
crop What is the country's biggest
and most important food crop. The
Agricultural Department forecasts a
combined spring and winter produc-
ton of $50 900, 900 bushels, which is
almost exactly the average of the
last five years and 43,O0O,0O0 bushels
more than last years output Nature
has not ben unusually liberal either.
The farmers have done it themselves,
planting over 100000 acres more
than they did a year ago.
There may be industrial strikes and
consumers strikes, but there are no
farmers strikes. The farmer may
| grumbIe, but he stays on the job
making full use of his capital and

ask Congress for an appropriation of
$50 100000 with which to build an
airplane carrier for the fleet. His de-
cision was reached prior to the recent
bombing tests off the Virginia Capes,
but his judgment was confirmed by
their outcome. A bill to that effect is
now pending before the House Naval
Committee, and the Secretary will
urge it's early enactment into law
It is understood that Mr. DENLY be-
1ieves that both the Atlantic and Pa

The Ku Klux Khan which has caused
such terror in Texas and other south
ern states, is said to be organizing
in Kansas. The object of the Khan,
it is said, is to see that criminals are
brought to justice. The object is a
worthy one, but can you suppress
crime with crime? The result, if
carried to it's logical conclusion, means
the death of all organized govern
ment; it means that the country
would soon be run BY secret organi-
cations, and no man would be safe,
for the Ku KIux KIan works on rumor,
rather than on proved evidence No
man who loves his country and its
institutions will ally himself with
secret organization, no matter how
worthy it's aims, which bands itself in
a clan for the purpose of wreaking
vengeance on some other clan Civil
zation can only exist through open
and lawful methods. Any other plan
for the suppression of crime is an
archy, pure and simple.-Osborne
