H|CHONB BOURSE
By the Associate Press.

PARIS, November THE pound
sterling made q new high record on
the Paris bourse today. Tho average
quotation was So francs so centimes,
or 2 francs 5 centimes above the pre-
vious top mark Of 81 francs Is CEN
times. reached in April. 1920.
Today's furry was attributed part
ly to continuation of French pay
ments abroad in the regular autumn
settlement for purchases made dur
ing the year. partly to speculation
and partly to the moral influence
exerted by the continued fall Of the
German mark and decreasin1 conf
dence in foreign markets that Ger
many will ever pay Frances repara-
tions.
London Exchange Much Higher.
The fact that London exchange
was much higher proportionately
than that on New York was explained
by the fact that Che English market
has always been more sensitive to
developments in Germany than New
York has been. News from Germany
mat tne feparatlOn3 commission Is
making no headway with the German
government naturally affects the
pound more than the dollar.
In banking and brokerage circles
1t is declared that French exchange
will be largely at the mercy of Lon
don and New York until the French
dollar requirements are provided for.
but that todays furry was not justi-
ned by any new developments and
was largely due to speculation.
Frantic Speculation Renewed.
The upward movement in foreign
moneys has again started frantic
speculation in foreign securities. Prof
it-takine on such securities is looked
for in the near future, and this is
likely to create small reaction.
1t is generally recognized. however.
that London and New York will hold
the key to the exchange situation for
some time 10 come.

.SPECULAT|NG ON
STOCK OWNERSHIP
Local interests Said to Be
Among Purchasers Of Rail-
way Common.
by !. 4. FILE MING.

Ownership of the 27.500 shares Of
Railway common. after the transfer
from the bankers committee to the
new purchasers, is the most interest
ing subject for discussion on the
street.
Eugene T. Thompson. representing
the purchasing syndicate. still refers
to Il group of investors without
going any further into the matter;
He also holds firmly to the belief
that Capital Traction interests are
no, identified with the purchase in
any manner.
The action of the latter stock on
the local exchange, with an advance
to 1861. since the announeement OF
the sale of the block of Railway COM
mon. from around 10l. has caused
much comment
There are those who believe local
interests are largely interested in
the buying syndicate, and they go as
far as to name some of the directors
OF the railway company, who have
not been 4, all interested in the fore
closed Washington Utilities notes
Mr.. Thompson name is also referred
to AS one of the buyers. and one or
two other local capitalists who are
well Informed as to the outlook for
tho future of that corporation
is also said to include New York and
Baltimore capitalists. has plans for
the future that have not entirely de-
vc!oped.
The cordial welcome of syndicate
members by the board of directors OF
the railroad company shows har-
mony of purpose. whatever it may
be.
In commenting on the matter no one
seems to lose sight of the s3.000.o00
impounded fund of the Potomac Elec-
trio Company. which II the subsidi-
ary OF the railway COMPANY obtains
title through the Supreme Court de-
c:sion. as generally anticipated, will
go a long ways toward paying the
purchase price for the 2..500 shares
Of stock. if distributed as deferred
dividends on the common shares Of
the Washington Railway and Elec
tric Company.
Capital Traction Higher.
Capital Traction sold at 1o4 a, the
opening today on the local exchange,
which was open for the first time on
record when the New York exchange
was closed
From 1o4 to 10J there were no trans
actions. then the noXt jump was to
1857 and this price was bid at the
close.
Railway common sold at 63I. to
6%'a. with higher prices asked at the
close
Merger Was Firm at 1:S.
In the bond list sales were not large.
while prices were little easier. Cap
ital Traction IS brought 97a4 and Po-
tomac Consolidated 5s at 96.
Will Hear Appeal.
The case of the local savings banks
has been prepared and they are ready
TO appear before the board OF tax
appraisers in support Of their con-
tention that the latter should rescind
its action in which they hold that
savings banks should be taxed per
cent on gross earnings.

WHY NOT ADOPT One
OF THESE PUPILS?.
Movement For Those Who Have No
Children to Help Send Boys and
Girls to School.

When several weeks ago The Jour
nal carried sotry OF two Pensacola
women who, because they wanted to
help In the education of the boys and
girls of the county, had agreed to
adopt three high school pupils, and
suggested that others should do the
there were many in Pensacola with
out children of their own who would
gladly adopt one or more boys or girls
until they have had one more month
of schooling.
This suggestion, which came to The
Journal from a member OF the PEN
saoloa woman's club, has already
borne fruit, and several have offered
TO adopt boys or girls for the month
until they have been given this extra
month that Is so much needed.
One of the bond trustees Is in re-
ceipt of a communication from q
broad minded and generous man. who
wishes to help in the movement to
such an extent as to have offered to
put four children through school for
the extra month.
It was suggested to Tho Journal
yesterday afternoon by Mrs. Paul P.
Stewart, president of the Parent
Teachers association of the p. X.
Yongc school that there must be many
others who would be willing to help In
this way. But the time is short, Only
one more week remains. II you are
willing TO help in this way, now is the
accepted time.
The Journal will gladly publish the
names of any persons who wish to Join
in this movement, or to help in any
possible way. But whatever Is done,
must be done quickly.

HENRY BLANDFORD OPENS
MISSION AT CHRIST CHURCH
WEDNESDAY NIGHT, MARCH 20

The name Healing Mission" is the
only sensational feature. but the best
answer that can give is to bid you
come and see. Prayer and the laying
on Of hands to heal the sick is as old
as Christianity itself.
VIII I Be Able to Secure a Seat?-
Reservations will be made for the sick,
all other seats absolutely free to those
who come. Cards of admission Will
not be used unless absolutely neces-
sary.
Is Any Provision to Be Made Tor the
Colored People Yes. If there are only
few asking for the ministrations Of
the mission, I suggest that they call
upon some white friend to bring them.
If there are many, a service will be
provided at ST. Cyprians.
Is There Any Charge and, If So,
What?-None whatever, Voluntary
offerings of the people are taken, as is
the custom in all the services OF the
church.
How Can I Register? Registration
cards and cards requesting prayers for
those who cannot be present can be
secured daily in the vestibule OF the
church from 8: 80 to $50 until the mis-
sion begins, and then before and after
the services, at 10 and 1880. There will
be someone at the church to help you
with your card.

Rector Christ Church.

Chamber of Commerce Commits
siOner Back From Detroit
Vouches for Ensley
Projects.

| r. G. WiuTble, representing a De-
troit syndicate. has negotiated for the
purchase of 5000 acres Of land In Es-
Gambia county which will be developed
into twenty and forty-acre tracts, and
will be oolonized by farmers from
Michigan.
J. B. Morrow, industrial commits
sioner of the Chamber of Commerce,
in speaking of the fact that Detroit
capitalists are looking to Pensacola as
an area Of development, said yester-
day AFTERNOON:
There is no question but that capt.
tai in the north Is looking to the south.
Especially is this true Of Detroit,
where one of It's leading citizens, Mr..
Ford. Is hopeful Of securing Muscle
Shoals for development.
Tho industrial commissioner has
laid before Mr.. Ford's associates and
a number Of other Detroit capitalists
the advantages OF Pensacola and her
, tributary area; and there Is no oues-
ton but that this personal contact Is
bearing fruit.
WlmbIe and Ensley.
"Others from Detroit, besides, are
coming to Pensacola. or this we were
assured personally while in Detroit
several weeks ago. 1t is gratifying to
have Mr.. Ensley go back to Detroit
and carry with him, as we know he
does, a real desire 20 help us develop
our many resources.
1T behooves US to encourage gen.
tlemen who come here to look US over
and to give them every encouragement
and especially so when they are seek
ing only the truth about Pensacola
and Esoambia county and are ready,
when our case is proven, to invest
their own and their associates money
in development"
The Industrial commission of the
months, been In communication with
Mr.. Enslsy, who has been in Pensa
cola during the past week looking over
the resources OF the city and county.
Past correspondence and several
visits made in Detroit by Mr., Nor
row, have disclosed well defined
movement on the part OF Detroit capt.
talists and others to investigate the
possibilities of Pensacola and Escam-
bia county from an industrial and ag-
rieultural standpoint.
It developed during Mr.. Morrow's
recent visit to Detroit that a syndi-
cate. headed by Mr.. Wimble, had ne
gotiated for the purchase of 5000
acres of land In Escambia county and
conferences with Mr.. Wimbls cleared
the way to the purchase of this tract.
Not Ensley Enterprise.
THE above proposition" said Mr..
Morrow, els in nowise connected with
Mr.. Ensley's plans, but is merely cited
to show that Detroit people and De-
troit capital are looking toward Pensa-
cola and its tributary territory for a
field of development.

Will Heal Through Laying on of
Hands as Did Apostles
of Old.

Many Inquiries have been made
about the Christian healing mission
! at Christ church, and the Rector, the
Rev. Hendree Harrison, in order to re-
ply to all OF the questions in regard
| to the mission, has made up the fol-
| lowing questions which have been sub
mitted, with the answers, in order that
the public may be fully informed:
When and Where Will the Mission
Be Held Tho mission opens with a
service at p. m. in Christ church, on
March 2sth. and continues with serv-
ices daily at 10 a. m. and z: 80 p. M, for
ten days.
Is the Missioner a Clergyman mo.
He is layman OF the Episcopal church
who has given his life to the study and
practice OF healing in Christ's name.
Does He Oppose the Use OF Medi-
cines?-No. There Is no disparage-
ment OF the work OF the physician.
Thankful hearts must be lifted to God
for all His gifts and for all tht sci
ence has done to alleviate human suf-
fering.
What Is Required of Those Desiring
Physical or Spiritual Healing Zone
services OF the mission to strengthen
faith in the ever-present Christ with
power to heal, and come forward for
the laying on of hands.
II Have No Bodily Ailment, Should
I Come?-Yes. All stand in need of
spiritual healing. so you are hidden to
come just as often as possible. Your
faith will be strengthened and God will
bless. The education value of the mis-
sion lie great.
VIII Mr.. BIanford offer Prayers for
Those Who Cannot Be Present?-Yes.
Let your friends know that they will
be remembered in the prayers of the
mission. Fill out a card for them, and
represent them at the services Of the
mission,
Is There Any Hope for a Blind Man?
Is There Any Hope for Me, Afflicted as
I am?-Many ask such questions
Study Christs healing ministry. Note
the cures recorded there. 1.-THE Christ
has said according to your faith so be
it unto you"
How Can I Prepare Mys for the
Mission ?-Remember that you are not
coming to a healer but that you are
coming to God to ask for His healing
grace. You are to come in the spirit OF
prayer. crying 81 believe, help Thou
my unbelief." Study your New Tesla
ment, noting how constantly healing
grace flowed from the Christ TO the
bodies of men.
Is Not This All Too Sensational ?-I
