TIMELY WALL STREET TOPICS

NEW YORK. April %. - Having
served the market well, by induc-
ing q general coveringf movement
toward the close yesterday, Stude-
baker took a minor position shortly
pfter today's opening. 1t did not
do so, however, before a price Of
69h had been commanded. A block
of $500 shares was taken during
the first few minutes all the way
from s6 to sez., Thereafter the
stock was subjected to a deal OF
profit- taking. but this was over
balanced by further efforts TO cover
short commitments. The result
was a rapid rise of about , points.
Before the end of the first hour,
however, IL became apparent that
some of the big operators on the
long side were unloading. A promi-
nent automobile man who was cred
tied with attempting TO gain con-
troll Of Studebaker at the time of
the previous forward movement to-
ward the close Of March. and one
of the best known figures in the
steel industry. were commonly
spoken of as the moving spirits in
this latest rise. Large amounts of
yesterdays buying orders were
traced to two houses which custom
arily handled the market commit
ments of these men. shortly after
the opening this morning these
houses were reported to be selling
Studebaker.

JAIL TERM PENALTY
Bill Drawn by Senator Mills
Provides Imprisonment
At Hard Labor.

Persons who sell cotton that they
do not own will be guilty OF fei-
ony and will be punished BY con-
finement at hard labor In the peni-
tentiary IL a bill approved by the
National Farmers Union at its con-
vention today becomes q law. The
bill was drawn by State Senator J..
II. Mills, Of Georgia, and will be
introduced by a member of the dele
CATION from that State in Congress.
Senator Mills said 1t was about
time to take drastic action because
three hundred million bales Of cot
ton were sold last year and less
than thirteen million bales actually
produced. The bill provides for the
complete elimination Of gambling
and other evils associated with the
operation of grain exchanges.
Approved BY Cotton Belt.
After warning the convention that
the sponsors of such measure
would meet with violent opposition,
Charles S. Barrett, chairman, said
the bill would have the approval OF
the entire cotton belt. He said the
work of reforming the cotton ex-
changes and compelling them to
conform to decent trading stand
ards was an enterprise of colossal
proportions, but he believed 1t GER
tainly could be accomplished.
The convention decided to give
earnest support to the Capper-Tin-
cher bill regulating the grain ex-
changes. A committee. with Maui
rice McAuliffe was appointed to see
that agrarian influence of the
strongest kind is brought to bear
upon the lawmakers for the pur-
pose of speeding the passage OF the
bills.
Davis submits Resolution.
A. C. Davis, secretary treasurer
of the organization submitted a

ment of Agriculture to divorce it.

leaving every association of tillers
of the soil to stand on its own
feet. The Committee on Banking
and Currency was asked to investi-
gate statements that the Depart
ment Of Agriculture was fostering a
certain organization of alleged
farmers and to suggest such action
as would make 1t impossible under
the law for the department to dis
criminate against one organization
in favor of another.
1t was decided to give all neces-
sary aid to Senator Lenroot and
Congressman Long who have taken
charge OF a joint resolution asking
that a commission of agricultural
inquiry be created. The resolution
will be introduced simultaneously
in the Senate and House next Mon
day. Senator Lenroot said he would
have a conference with Congress
man Long when the exact form of
the resolution would be agreed upon.
On motion of Senator Mills the
convention adopted resolution
calling upon Congress to convert
Liberty bonds into currency by
making them legal tender for all
debts both public and private. II
this is done, 1t was explained, the
bonds would be noninterest bear
ing.
Thus by a stroke of the pen the
oulk OF the Government debt is
wiped out" explained Mr.. Mills.
Uncle Sam simply makes currency
OF the bonds. This would bring
down taxes to. almost the prewar
level and diminish the cost of liv-
ing to an extent that will alarm
the profiteer."

feel skeptical about the present
movement The reason in almost
every case is the prominent part
taken by the smaller and more
speculative issues; and the COM
paratively insignificant advances
made by stocks Of the more SUBJ
stantial companies.
The 1920 report Of the American
Writing Paper Company. which Is
to be published within the next few
days. was the subject of no little
discussion today. Extraordinary
profits of the International Paper
Company last year have led the
Street to believe that the writing
paper concern will maRe a favora-
BILE showing. II was reported to-
day that the statement will show
net profits equal TO SIS a share on
the preferred stock. compared with
S3.4s in 1919. The forecast places
the company's cash at 5000. 900. or
more than double that OF Decem-
Der 81, 1919.

however. was not in sufficient vol
ume to overcome more than a frac-
tion of the earlier gains. After
more than a million shares had
changed hands the market closed
with net gains running all the way
from to points. It was no
longer an affair featuring a few
specialties or one or two particu-
lar groups, but a movement from
which only a scattered few issues
held aloof. Even the steels, which

and unusual things that are being
done with wells and tulle. Folds of
tulle or lace, scarfs and scarf ends
often are attached to one or both
sides of hat and looped gracefully.
Such trimming is softening to the
contour of the face and likely to
prove most becoming.
You will see that we have quite as
much choice in the matter of trim
mings as we have in shape, size and
coloring. A few of the unusual
forms such as the straw rosette and
eagle feathers have been especially
noted in this article.
But for the midsummer the trim
ming that one sees in profusion is
flowers. There is little novelty about
them and 1t IS true that they appear
on the most commercial hats; that is,
those that sell in greatest quantities,
but this only goes to prove that it is
the form of trimming best liked by
women for this time of the year.

crepe de Chine and straw. Occa-
sionally taffeta facings in brilliant
colors are noted, and especially de-
sirable is changeable taffeta. which
gives a marvellous color tone.
One of the most popular of the
tailored models is Lanvin's hat in
shiny black straw trimmed with
braided band of bright green crepe
de Chine. This was brought out
earlier in the season and its popular
ity has increased.
Veil trimmed hats have in no wise
lost their prestige, for the most
extraordinary styles in wells are just
now being launched by leading mill
liners. Talbot has a number of

Old Ivory Laces
TOn Dark Backgrounds
IT WAS about six inches long, three
inches wide and rounding at the
bottom, where a slender black silk
tassel was suspended. The handle
was of black silk cord. This purse
was of the stiff sort. Many others
were just soft silk cases almost like
change purses, only, of course, much
larger.
The best model of the latter tyue
introduced appliqued ivory colored
lace-one Of the latest Partisan
touches in purses. 1t was of dark
blue satin, the lace being cut out
and applied in the form of border.
The shape of this purse was long
and narrow like the one described
above, with the exception that the
lines sloped toward the bottom. It,
too, was suspended fro,S a silk cord.
and, where the cord joins the purse
at either side, two blue silk tassels
were placed.
One might have these purses made
up to order, and they offer excellent
opportunity for using small bits
Of rare lace-treasures that, Der
haps, have been tucked away for
years simply because they were SO
small that they appeared to have no
real use, but with too much sentiment
attached TO them to permit Of their
being thrown away. Flat envelopes
of black silk may have choice bits Of
lace appliqued to them with gold
threads.
The Hatpin Serves as
The Only Trimming
HATPINs proved quite as inter-
esting as the purses in this de-
partment, which makes a specially
of imported novelties. There were
ever so many of the large, snowy
variety SO much used this season as
the only trimming or e hat. Very
often the drapery of crepe de chine
hat is held in place by one or two of
these pins. Some were Of crystal,
but many Of jade and crystal.
Jade, by the way, In all sorts OF
novelties, appears TO be as enduring
as the green Of the sea. It does not
seem possible for manufacturers of
these things to get away from it, al-
though there are many other SEMI
precious stones equally zs beautiful.
Probably the superstition that jade
is lucky stone plays large part in
it's continuance in favor, or It may
be used extensively because It's pc.
