CURB DISPLAYS
HOLIDAY TONE
IOferings in Recent Market
Leaders Conspicuous by
Small Volume.

NEW YORK. May 31.-Business
on the Broad street curb indicated
disposition on the part of many of
those trading in that market to
make a more extended holiday, alb
senteeism being general and busi-
ness even in the usual active issues
was small in volume. There were
some offerings at concessions bur
the declines were too narrow in ex-
tent to he of special Importance and
simply indicated the general reced-
ing character of the situation In all
trading groups. The coal stocks
in the past week were neglected,
only a few transactions being made
In that group, Lackawanna rights
selling at IS and Glen Alden coal
at 40h. Acme coal. one of the
low-price issues, was steady with
moderate amount OF business at ~.
Other industrial issues were gem
orally steady. Sweets company SELL
ing at 3H and az and Intereonti-
mental rubber was traded in at 101a.
American Chicle preferred was ex-
ceptionally weak, yielding from SO
to SIS. a new low record. U. S. Ship
corporation was steady and un-
changed, about the only business in
that stock coming from representa-
tives of the control who maintain a
market for its shares. Radio issues
were steady, the common stock SELL
ing at and IN.
There was little change in the
trading position of the petroleum
stocks generally. Some OF these is
sues showed a firm tone at the
opening which shaded of before
noon and the movements in the
petroleum group as a rule were
confined within a fractional range.
Elk Basin again sold at ~ and
TX and the rights were traded in
at u and ss. Maracaibo sold at
26h and there was a little busi-
ness in Simms Petroleum at sx to
3. Producers and refiners sold at

ACTIVE BUYING IN
MEXICAN ISSUES
Rumors That Obregon May
Sign Agreement Causes
Squirt; Liberties Active.

NEW YORK. May 31.-This morn
ing's dispatches touching on the
possibility that the Mexican presi-
dent may sign the agreement pre-
liminary to recognition Of his gov
ernment at Washington, caused
same active buying of the two prin-
cipal Mexican government securities
traded in on our markets. The IS
advanced 1 Ia points TO 81 Ia. At
this price they were 3-4 points
under the high price of May I4. and
IL Ia points above the low of early
January. Other foreign bonds were
steady despite another sharp break
in foreign exc hange. French IS ad-
vanced a half point to 80. Belgian
SIS a similar amount to ssh. and
Belgian TVS a slight fraction.
United Kingdom 5ks of 1929 re-
mained steady in spite of the fact
that they have been governed to
some extent by variations in the
price of the English pound sterling.
The large volume of trading in
other bands was due again TO in
creased activity in Liberty bonds.
Under heavy selling pressure the
rs ueCiined 10 new low record
at $3.50, losing SO cents on the 800
bond by comparison with the Fri
day closing. The other Libertys,
while active. were comparatively
steady. Rail bonds held their
ground in anticipation of the an
nouncement to be made tomorrow
by he railway labor board on ap-
plications of the roads for permis-
sion to reduce wages. Chesapeake

to 664. but In the afternoon recoy-

Thus the assembling Of the dele

comes an assured fact. although the
diplomatic formalities require there

BLAME KISSING
FOR BLISTERS
Disease Spreads so Rapidly
in Uniontown Ban May
Be Ordered
OSCULATING THE
OUTSIDE SPORT

UNIoNToWN. Pa. Aug. TO-
Kissing is blamed by physicians OF
this city for the spread OF an cpl
domic OF blisters. which now has
grown to such proportions that the
Board OF Health may be called on
to place a ban on osculation until
such time as the disease has abatei
or disappeared entirely.
Local physicians are authority
for tho statement that there are
hundreds OF cases OF a skin disease
which spreads in a manner similar
TO noxious weed poisoning. The dis
ease has the nature of an eczemous
rash and has been found very diff
fcuit to control and even more diff
fcult to eradicate once IL has taken
hold.
While not all the persons affected
with the "blisters" are in their teens
and early twenties. a great majority
OF them are at what is known as
the kissing age"
Physicians. while they admit the
disease is not serious. declare that
some method OF controlling It must
be evolved, despite all objections
that may come from the young
folks OF this vicinity. The hint
dropped yesterday that the Board OF
Health might be asked to declare
kissing taboo, until such time as
the blister epidemic" has subsided
has aroused a storm OF protest from
all over the city. while many who
have not raised their voices are
merely smiling and asking How
are they going to do it2"
That kissing is responsible To- the
great spread OF the epidemic Is
shown by the fact that the rash. in
variably attacks the face first, gem
orally beginning on the lips
Few, II any, OF the physicians
here have been able 20 diagnose tn,
disease. the first cases OF which a.
peared here about three weeks az o.
Some OF the most prominent
physicians in the city have publicly
announced the only hope for tbs
abatement and stamping out OF to
