a number of private monthly crop condi-
ton reports in advance of the August 1
government crop report was issued today
and as it indicated a much larger crop than
was promised one month ago, pointing to
q condition of 73.5 and a yield of 1850
900 bales VS.. last months condition of 71.2,
which indicated a production of only H.
O65 900 bales, market declined sharply.
Liquidation, short selling and hedging was
the order of the day, which will likely con-
tinue, particularly on bulces, until after
the August 1 bureau report is issued, es-
pecially if the needed rains in Texas make
their appearance.
As VT. however, there has been rain
of consequence in the dry areas of Texas,
showers there, there are no decided indica-
lions for important change in, climatic
conditions for the southwest in the immc-
date future. Meanwhile scattered light to
moderate rains continue to fall in the cen

Discussing the Bfnet-Simon test,
she says: "Most of those who take
the tests find them fascinating. To
DuPre, they were a bore because he
succeeded so poorly with them.
Throughout the tests, the examiner
had to commend even his poorest
efforts, so as to prevent his getting
discouraged and tired of what he
could not succeed at and did not
understand the purpose of. Under
this praise, he improved and did not
seem to realize that it was to his
advantage to do poorly, bit seemed

Bright Outlook for Municipal Bonds
Roger Babson the Statstician Has Public Borrow
ing on 212 % Basis, Advises Purchase of Munich
pal Bonds at Present Levels.

interest rates should steadily and
continually decline.
This means that municipalities
should Immediately adopt civic plan
ming schemes" continued Mr.. Bah
son, land probably should make
during the next five years, such i'm
provements as they ordinarily would
make in ten. The time to make hay
is while the sun shines, and the
time to borrow money on long term
loans is when money rates are low.
Hence, cities and towns should not
only borrow during the next few
years for their current needs but
should borrow large sums and in
vest the same for use for years to
come, especially during the next
period of unemployment.
"If cities operated in a business
way they would borrow their money
at times like the present, stow it
away. and then spend it when the
next period of unemployment comes.
By spending it at such times, they
not only could get the work done
very much cheaper, but they could
perform a distinct service to the
people of the community. The gen
eral custom followed is the reverse.
Cities now do their construction
work when it is easy to get money,
which is when labor is fully en-
ployed and when everyone else is
building. This is all wrong. When
the period of unemployment comes
it is very difficult to borrow money
for construction work because
money is then tight and the citizens
feel poor. Hence, under the pres
ent system it is impossible to do
much to relieve unemployment when
it comes. If the ice man attempted
to follow the same system in his
business as the city officials follow,
he would wait until summer to cut
his ice!
For investors this means that
tax exempt securities. and town
bonds should now be purchased even
though they have already gone up
some in price. Those who contem-
plate buying should buy at once be-
fore they go up still higher. When
bunying tax exempt issues seek the
long term ones as these will show
the greatest profit. All of this should
be specially encouraging to the con
that a great deal of public work will
be done during the next few years.
City water plants will be extended.
more sewers will be constructed, new
public buildings will be erected, and
the good road movement will con-
tinue. to grow. This should be well
come information" concluded the
statistician, ito those who handle
contractors supplies and building
materials, and especially all such
materials as are used by cities and
towns"
General business as reflected in
the index figure of the Babson chart
is IS per cent below normal. This
is an Improvement of per cent over
last week and is 10 per cent above
the activity Of the same week a
year ago. Smaller failures are help.
ing matters considerably and further
Improvement should be reflected
during the next few weeks.

WELLESLEY HILLS, Mass,
July %, 1922.-While discussing the
opportunities in the present bond
market, Roger w. Babson, the sta
tistician today made the following
statement regarding the future of
municipal issues.
THE past few years." says Mr..
BabSon, 'haVe been hard for cities
and towns desiring to borrow money.
During the war an unwritten ban
was placed upon municipal borrow
ing and unnecessary public build
ing. Directly after the war money
was scarce and rates were high. 1t
has only been within the last few
months that cities and towns have
been able to secure what money
they have desired at a fair rate. Mu-
nicipal fathers, contractors, and in
vestors are now wondering whether
the present decline in. rates is tenn
porary or will extend over seT'eral
years. 49,
STUDY of the situation leads me
to believe that the present decline
in interest rates will continue and
that cities and towns will be able to
borrow freely during the next few
years. 1t even looks as if city faith
ers will soon be solicited by bond
houses for issues to sell. Up to
the present time city officials have
been obliged to hunt up banks to buy
their securities. The time will soon
come when the bankers will be send
ing buyers through the country to
hunt up bond issues that they can
sell. The next few years will see a
scramble for bonds on the part Of
= ~ Il Go 49, kIoo,
vious scramble for money on the part
of cities and towns. The law of
business cycles still operates. AS we
have had years of advancing interest
rates we will have years of declin-
ing interest rates. Moreover, these
cycles cannot be suspended or chang
ed any more than we can suspend
or change the tides of the ocean.
"In addition to the law of busi-
ness cycles, the tax situation is very
much in favor of municipal borrow
ing. Before the days of income tax
and sur-taxes, bonds of our best CT
ties sold on 8 IL per cent basis, and
even better. Now. when wealthy
men are obliged to pay sur-taxes Of
from 20 per cent to SO per cent these
tax exempt bonds of cities and towns
should be in great demand. Some of
my associates even state that many
of these bonds may, go up until they
are on a 2 IL basis, or less. OF
course, this also applies to the gov
eminent bonds, although the govern
ment bonds are rather short time
and therefore not so attractive to the
investor. Cities and towns will tenn
porarily be ,-reatly benefited in their
borrowing by any amendment TO the
Constitution making all bonds tax
able. If such a legislation is at
tempted there naturally will be a
lot of tax exempt bonds put on the
market just preceding such legisla-
ton. Some feel that such a flood
of securities would depress the price,
but others believe that if they are
to be the last of tax exempt securi-
ties. the market will absorb easily
all they offer. Whiever is the case,
cities and towns will have no diff

GIRL SLAYER'S ACE
PUZZLES OFFICERS

MONTGOMERY, Ala, July a.
"Is Mildred Willis Brewer, self-con.~

This has been the all-important
question here as detectives continued

Attorneys for Miss Brewer were

Until Coroner J. J. Diffly has ren- ;

Diffly, assisted by police, has been
investigating the case since the girl

Thursday and announced that Nc
Keithen's body could be found in a
clump of bushes six and half miles
out on the Haynesville road and she
would answer for his death. Diffly

While agents of the solicitors Of
flee investigated conflicting reports
of Miss Brewers age, detectives con.
tinued to work on the theory that
the girl did not kill McKeithen but
had assumed responsibility for his
death to shield another.
Letters in the girls possession
when she surrendered and alleged
to have been written by McKeithen
will be read at the preliminary
hearing, it was indicated today. Pro-
baton officers in the possession of
the letters since Miss Brewer was
arrested refuse to make them public.
Prison life since Thursday night
had apparently strengthened Miss

frain from talking about the death

that she explain why she shot Nc
Keithen were refused.
She evidenced more interest learn

TEACHERS To LEARN
CAMERA OPERATION!

LANSING, Mich, July %. - Be
lieving that motion pictures, with
in the next few years, will become
almost as important a factor in edu-
cation as text books, courses in mo-
ton picture mechanics will be in
augurated in the four Michigan nor
NAL colleges net fall. ThomaXs E.
Johnson, state superintendent of
public instruction.. has announced.
1t will be necessary to train teach
ers to operate motion picture ma
chimes to carry out plans already
laid by the state for introducing
motion pictures into the schools, ac-
cording to Mr.. Johnson. Next fall
the state department of education
will establish a distributing station
for educational films. The films are
to be purchased outright by the
state and rented to high schools.
After the next school year it is
planned to enlarge the cinema pro-
gram by using not only purchased
films, but films depicting Michigan
industries and institutions, manu-
featured under the supervision of
the state department of education.
According to Superintendent John
SOL, preliminary tests have proven
the educational value of films. Stu
dents in manual training classes. he
asserts, pick up the rudiments Of
bench or lathe work many times
faster if they are first shown the
processes of the work they are to
undertake in pictures. The same
fact applies to natural history, bot
any, zoology, chemistry and phys
les, he states. thin a few years
he expects that the motion picture
phase of education will have been
developed to a point where litera-
ture and history will be taught
through the medium of we'll acted
plays on the scree
