Pennsylvania RaiIroa d.

II the net operating income of the
Pennsylvania Railroad for August ap
proximates the average Of the two pre-
ceding months, or say $4,000, ,000 the
result will contrast with a net operating
deficit Of S27,569,675 in August, 1920, or
an Increase of more than S32, ,000.0 900.
Thus 1t appears as though the road had
been touched by the hand of Midas.
But In August. 1920. the Pennsylvania
charged up against the revenues OF that
month four months wage increase under
the % per cent wage award made retro
active by the United States Railroad
Labor Board to May /, 1920. The Pennsyl-
vania System increased its payroll to
about sS,000,000 month, bringing the
total Increase of its wages charged In
August to s32.O00.000. The Pennsyl-
vania Railroad proper advanced its
wages s7,500,000 month, and thus its
increased pay charge for August. includ-
ing three months back pay and the
higher rate for that month, was about
$50, ,000, 200.

speculative Favorite. slide.

Those stocks which were the favorites
when stocks were put up last week and
which moved the farthest and most cas-
lily were. naturally. the first to feel the
effects OF yesterdays reaction. Such
issues as Mexican Petroleum, Baldwin
Locomotive. Corn Products. Kelly SPRING
field, Sumatra, American International
Pullman, Studebaker and many others
lost from two to three points and more.
Those issues were the ones which re-
sponded most readily to the boosting
tactics Of last week, and 1t was in them
that the best profits were obtainable.
Not only was the selling Of these stocks
for profits responsible for their drop.
but also for their weakened technical po-
sition as a result OF last weeks run-in

Nolan while not as fast as he was

for the Speedway guards to keep
him covered during the greater part

One Of. the greatest basketball or
CARNATIONS Midd!esex county ever
boosted Of the Sterlings Of South
River, has been organized and South
River will have a quintet playing
games on q South River court this
season for the first time in six years.
The Sterlings will open next Wednes-
day night on the South River High

Holy Cross team from Trenton will
probably furnish the opposition.
Games will be played at home every
Wednesday night and away every
other night in the week.
Walter Dick Maleski will pilot
the affairs of the South River COM
bination, and he is Of the belief thai
the outfit he has lined W will make
a bid for Middlesex county honors
The Sterlings in former seasons
handicapped by not having a courl
of their own, put up some brilliant
battles for the county honorS, and
with a home court should succeed IN
turning the tables en- opponents OF
former years.
Maleski, who has had considerable
experience on the court in this coun-
ty. will occupy the pivot position for
the South River team, and JONI
Boiler" Fitzpatrick and Bob Meury
will be stationed in the advanced po-
sitions, while Charley Eppinger and
Emil Anderson will be found in the
defensive berths. Maleski has per-
formed with the Duponts. SterlingS
and a number Of other teams from
Sayreville and South River; Fitzpat'
rick has played with Duponts. Steri
ings. Knights of st. Peters and MANI
other outfits, Meury captained Rutg'
ers quintet two years ago; anC
| Charley Eppinger and Anderson. tn
latter from South Amboy, have ais
