TIMELY WALL STREET TOPICS

, NEW YORK. June 29.-Today's
stock market was strong in some
spots. weak in others and in its
standard groups fairly steady. The
volume of transactions showed up
we'll in comparison with yester-
days total mainly on occount of
the activity of a few special issues
which furnished the only excite
ment In an otherwise dull market.
Studebaker, General Motors, Steel
common, Mexican Petroleum, and
General Asphalt were the features.
American Car and Foundry while
not especially active advanced rap
idly In the afternoon, buyers an
ticipating a favorable statement for
the fiscal year ended April 30. A
.5h per cent renewal rate followed
by a rate OF per cent on new
loans in the last hour, was ignored
as a market factor.
The impending suspension Of
trading for three consecutive days
was a consideration in the stock
market even as early as today. If
sentiment were pronouncedly bear
ish or bullish II is probable that
nothing would be done until FRI
day or. at the earliest. tomorrow
to protect accounts over the holi-
days. But on this occasion the
Street is recovering from a long
siege of pessimism and price reac-
tion and the markets of the past
few days have shown recuperative
power. For this reason commission
mers to begin today their prepara-
tions for the weekend. The sharp
upturn which started in the last
hour yesterday and continued in the
carly trading today could scarcely
be expected to endure with many
market observers advising profit
taking this afternoon or before the
close tomorrow.
The posting of a call loan re-
newal rate of 5Is per cent today
after a rate OF per cent had been
in force since Tuesday of last week
did not come as a surprise. A fore
shadowing of this development was
recognized in the rise in the rate
for new money early yesterday aft.
ernoon. This contraction in the
supply Of money may be due to Il
number of factors. 1t Is known
that government intends to with
draw s2s. 100000 from the banks in
this district tomorrow, making a
total of s62,0oo,oo0 of Withdrawals
for the week. One of the less wen
known factors is the amount of
preparations the banks still have 20
make to meet the heavy mid-ycar
obligations. In same quarters
which are usually well informed or
banking matters the belief was ex-
pected today that preparations were
completed a week ago. Another
item about which little is known Is
the part the banks will take in re-
deeming the Burlington joint 4 per
cent bonds, which mature on July 1.
OF course the funds are available

SPEECH OF GOV. RICHIE At THE MEETING
OF THE DEMOCRATIC STATE CENTRAL
COMMITTEE, THURSDAY, JULY q.

If the Democratic party would
win this fall-and / take it for
granted that we all want that.
because we are all Democrats, be-
lieving that Democratic princi-
pies and ideals are best for the
State then two things are neces-
sary: First, we must offer the
people a constructive program,
and. next, we must perfect the
machinery of our party organiza-
ton.
Both in this State and in the
nation our party has every reason
for confidence. We were defeat
ed last fall, but we were defeated
only because, after the most con-
structive and progressive four
years a National Administration
has ever given the people, all the
prejudices, all the dislikes, all
the animosities. all the gTudges
which the war cngcndered in
many groups Of the people, were
combined against us.
Nov we see a Republican Ad-
ministration which not only finds
that it cannot satisfy its cam
paign assurance to these yariC-
groups, or their expectations. bu,
which has made little progress in
satisfying the crying need and
demand Of the country for lower
taxes. For after nearly five
months Of Republican rule, We
see the Republican party actually
divided as to whether the tariff
or taxation should come first,
with nothing done ABOUT either.
We recognize thata incryas s.
ing number Of men ard women
do not vote the Democratic ticket
Just because those on 1T arc
Democrats. We know that ou
party must oller the people a r"a
son why theE should vote th'
Democratic ticket rather JhaT
the Republican.
we have never yet failed t.
oiier such a reason. Oar goo'
roads system, our W'rNngmens
compensation law, our Budge
system, and hundred other no
gresslve measures were all glVeI
us by Democrats.

ANNUAL SEAL
SALE OPENS
THANKSGIVING

With the annual sale of Christmas
seals, which finance Wisconsin's or
ganized campaign against tuberculo-
sis, opening Thanksgiving Day, CHEEKY
Christmas posters with the urgent
message, ''Christmas Seal Your
Christmas Mail" are making their
appearance on billboards and in store
windows all over the state.
During the past week millions of
the little stickers have been shipped
out to campaign managers in all parts
of the state from the Milwaukee
headquarters of the Wisconsin Anti
tuberculosis Association, official rep
resentative in Wisconsin of the Ma
tional tuberculosis Association.
The bill posters of the state have
volunteered their services in securing
bill board space for the posters and
putting them up. The posters are un-
usually attractive in design and bright
coloring. They feature Santa Claus
and a small boy eagerly mailing a
Christmas sealed letter In the larg-
er cities of the state immense twen-
ty four foot posters, the largest ever
issued for the national Christmas seal
sale, will be displayed.

CLINICS FRIDAY
AND SATURDAY,
DECEMBER 2-3

Wide interest throughout the coun-
ty is being manifested IN the Free
Chest Clinic to be held in Wisconsin
Rapids on Friday and Saturday, De-
cember 2 and 3. The hours will be as
follows: Friday, 3 a. m. to 9 p. M,
and Saturday, a. m. to 6p. m. The
clinic will be held in the First Ma
tional Bank building.
"The object of the clinic is to seek
out early cases of tuberculosis" says
a statement from the Wisconsin Anti
tuberculosis Association. "The early
| discovery and treatment of tubercul-
osis is important for two reasons: 1st
because proper treatment at this time
will usually effect a cure: secondly,
| because early cases are often danger
Gus carriers of infection. Members
of families where there has been a
| death from tuberculosis or where
there is living case should be ex-
amined because it is not unusual to
| find several other active cases. By
getting these cases early and inducing
them to start treatment, we hope to
check tuberculosis from sweeping
through entire families, as is often
| the case.
'The following are also urged to be
examined: anaemic and underweight
children, persons who have had infu-
enza, bronchitis, pneumonia and pleu-
risy and have not completely reeov-
cred their health; ex-service men and
draft rejects, who were pronounced
tuberculous; persons having any SYM
ptoms of the disease.
| among the most readily recog-
nized danger signals of tuberculosis
are: Indigestion, loss of weight and
appetite, dun-doyn feeling, loss of pep.
feverishness and a slight, persistent
cough. Persons having any of these
symptoms should be examined at once.
Local physicians are invited to
bring in cases for consultation and to
watch the examinations. All findings
are held in the strictest confidence,
attention. No treatment is given but
the patients are given thorough ex-
animation, told frankly what their
trouble is and advised as to what the
best method is of recovering their
health"
