STOCK ISSUES
MAKE RALLIES
Market Was Under Pressure
During Initial Hour.

NEW YORK, March 15.-The stock
market continued under pressure at the
opening today, but after the initial de-
clines a better tone was evident and good
rallies were made from the low.
Mexican Petroleum, selling ex-diyidend
3 per cent, yielded over points to 1879
and then rallied 1 point.
Pan-American Petroleum also sold ex-
dividend and fell l point to 61&, but
quickly recovered this loss.
Crucible Steel, after dropping IA points
to S2k, came back to S315.
Steel common held steady at 7S1A.
Atlantic Gulf was in good demand
after it's sharp break yesterday, advanc-
ing rs points to 3615.
Reading after showing a fractional
loss, rose to 6614.
United Fruit was under pressure, fall
ing points to 9S12.
The action of the stock market all
through the first hour indicated that
speculative conditions had materially
changed and the market had become one
in which liquidation was completed ex-
cept in the Petroleum group.
In those issues the greatest supply
came from bear plungers.
Mexican Petroleum. after selling al
18Th, moved up to 1405s and Pan Ameri-
66N.
United States Steel rose from IS to 7e
ond there WIS vigorous demand for Bald
win, which advanced from S21a to 81.
Reading, after being forced down to IS
rose to 81 and Southern Pacific made a
gain OF 1 point to 70.
United Fruit was an object Of bear at
tacks and yielded 8 points to 971s, but
had a quick rally to 9S19.
The motor stocks were steadily bought,
Studebaker hanging from 5913 to CO.'S.

March Il

At the opening Of the market yesterday
there was nothing TO influence traders
There was moderate demand for
stocks, about equally divided between
commission houses and local traders. Of
ferings were light. Within a very few
minutes thereafter the professional ele-
ment took to the selling side again and
brought considerable pressure to bear on
a number of active stocks including Cru
chile, Mexican Petroleum. Atlantic Gulf
and United States Steel. but in the lat
ter trade there was fair support. which
prevented a decline OF consequence.
Later in the day after period of dull
ness, traders again became active and
centered their attention on Atlantic Gulf.
but at the same time 4 covering move
ment in the general list developed, which
resulted in some fair rallies
Throughout the day the commission
house business was only moderate, with
the net result probably showing moderate
purchases by balance.
Notwithstanding the decline in values,
1t does not yet appear that there has
been any improvement IN professional
sentiment toward the market.
There is still a noticeable feeling OF IN
rest, and a general want of confidence in
the stability of values. And while there
can be little doubt but that a goOdly
portion of the stocks recently sold have
been accumulated with view of perma-
nent investment. nevertheless there is
nothing at the moment to give hope of
any immediate change for the better. and
some further liquidation IS still likely.

FOGLEMAN GAVE
GREAT LECTURE

Harry Fogleman, the rapidfire, dy-
manic speaker, held the audience un-
der his magic spell for nearly two hours
at the auditorium last Wednesday night.
Mr.. FoglemaD's subject was "The Win
ming Man in Business. While this lec-
ture was especially valuable to busi-
ness men, it was worth while for every
body. In particular did he discuss the
subject of salesmanship, in a manner
that ought to be worth much to every
man who has anything to sell. Es-
pecially was it worth while to the busi-
ness men of East Jordan, although very
few were there to hear him. He show
ed very plainly and conclusively what
the trouble is when people go out of
town to buy goods, and he also explain
ed how to remedy that
A lecture such as Mr.. Fogleman gives
would be great thing for every COM
munity if it could be heard every two
weeks.
At the close of his lecture, Mr.. Fogle-
man gave a demonstration in character
study which was very instructive.

Every Michigan potato grower is
interested in good roads. He has to
be. The spuds require heavy loading
and long distant hauls. The season is
short and the market uncertain, with
labor an ever-increasing problem-yes,
every potato grower is interested in
good roads.
The good roads men have discover
ed that the necessary things come first.
If public Improvement is needed and
the fact is made known, the public
votes that improvement. Thus, il a
highway is needed by everybody-not
only by potato growers,-that highway
will be improved and maintained.
Consolidated schools are needed
Everyone admits that. Their history is
the history of success; their organiza.
ton is the longed for ideal. The ques-
ton is one of roads. For consolidated
schools, we need roads. Parents should
unite with potato growers in showing
this need for better roads.
Roads were one time used as an
argument against rural mail delivery.
The question is settled now. The mail
route is kept open. Similarly, in other
states, parents and school boards have
found that when consolidated school
is established, good roads follow. Good
roads become necessity and the re.
Esult is inevitable. Potato growers
should unite with parents in working
for consolidated schools in our rural
districts.

STOCK MEN MAY RUN
COMMISSION HOUSES

Steps TO ascertain whether it is feas-
ibe for the Michigan Livestock Ex-
change to broaden its scope to include
cooperative commission houses in De-
troit and Buffalo will be taken in the
near future as result OF the action OF
delegates at the annual meeting of eX-
change at NJ. A. C. last week.
Speakers pointed out that 80 per cent
Of the stock now handled by the pri-
vately owned commission houses in
Detroit come from cooperative ship
ping associations in Michigan. AS soon
as business conditions become more
stable, the livestock growers through
their central exchange propose to take
over this function themselves.
One of the most important resolu-
tions passed by the delegates recon-
mended affiliation with the Michigan
State Farm Bureau. The Livestock eX-
change is the first independent COOP
erative body to declare itself in favor
of such move since the action of the
Farm Bureau week ago in abandon
ing the geographical for the commod-
ity type of organization.
Other resolutions urged the eradica-
ton of tuberculosis in Michigan live
stock, collective insurance on the part
of exchange members, and a bill to
compel corporations or individual own
ing stockyards in the state to construct
and maintain covered yards.
Men elected to the board of directors
for the coming year are: George Bou-
tell, Perry; E. A. Beamer, Blissfield
Lee Harrison, Constantine; c. j. Mi
Ter, Union City; f. E. Commson, Lam
sing; M. w. Stewart, E. X. Munson,

will be elected by the board. Retiring
officers are; President, MIR. Harrison;
president, Mr.. Miller; Secretary,
L. E. Willet, Laingsburg; and treas
urer, MIR. Beamer.
Among the speakers were James

4 Overwbelms Kalkaska Basket
ball Team by Score
of I'll to IL.

In the first interscholastic basketball
game in the new gymnasium the East
Jordan High School came out an easy
victory, winning over the Kalkaska
High School by the one-sided score OF
Al 10 Il. The East Jordan team was
heavier and faster, and had the advant-
age throughout the entire game. Al
though the Kalkaska team were smaller
they were excellent basket shots, and
whenever opportunity offered, they
succeeded in caging the basket.
Considering the fact that this is only
the third game that the East Jordan
High School team has ever played,
they really displayed fine quality for
basketball. Their development has
been most pronounced.
On Friday night of this week the
Boyne City American Legion team play
here.

Friday Night
Both Debate and Basketball
Game to be Held at the
SchOOIhOuSe.

The East Jordan High School next
Friday night will stage two contests,
one a debate and the other a basket
ball game. The basketball game will
be between the Boyne City American
Legion team and the East Jordan High
School, and will be started at ZOO sharp.
Right after the basket ball game is ov-
er, the debate will be held between
East Jordan and Cheboygan.
A single admission will be charged
the public for both, so that those caring
for either basketball or debating or both
may be Accommodated.
The American Legion team for Boyne
City is a heavy, fast team and the East
Jordan High School will have TO play
very high grade of basketball if they
expect to win. The contest ought to be
not only close, but very fast
The debate between Cheboygan and
East Jordan is the final debate in the
preliminary series. So far, East Jor-
dan has debated four times and has
won all four. III East Jordan wins the
debate on Friday night the team will
have a standing sufficiently high to en-
ter the finals, leading up to the state
championship. The Cheboygan team
has had ali excellent record and the de-
bate should be one of the best held in
East Jordan.
The admission of thirty-five and
twenty-five cents will be charged,
which admits to both basketball and
debate.
