Nation Shuddered
at Glda's> Goodbye
BY BUGS" BAER.

MI ANY successful New Workers were born in re-
lVl spectacle towns and outgrew them. Gilda Gray,
was born in a slow, small village, but wigged her way
out of it. 1t is easy to shake the dust of your home
town from your feet, but Glda shook it from her
whole anatomy.
When she left Cudahy, Wisconsin, which is nine
miles loose from Milwaukee her husband stood at the
swinging gates of his papas gilded saloon and waved
his spotted bar towel in farewell.
Gilda waved her hand back. Then he waved his
apron Gilda waved her gingham gown. AS Gilda
said later:
IF this going to be waving contest was
determined to win"
Of such materials are emperors conquerors and bar
towels made. Mr.. Gda waved his head She trumped
this with Of her shoulders. Then when he
looked around for worlds to wave she settled the
tournament by waving everything but her feet.
Gilda has never stopped since that eventful day
when she decided that there not room in Cudahy
for both her shoulders.
This contest will shake New York and Milwaukee to
their dance floors. After mother has not seen her
for many long years, shall the law step in and
drag them apart?

scribed, will be offered as soon as its
approval is obtained from a State COM

From the opening it was evident THAI

technical factors. With January selling

to the fact that cotton could be shipped

cember 30 with s5,000.000 of assets and
S,500,000 of liabilities. met yesterday un-
der auspices of the customers recla-
nation committee, and were told by
John S. Sheppard. receiver, that he
would deliver without litigation wher-
ever possible stock to customers who
owned it outright and would do the
same for marginal customers who met
their balances.

mittee, announced, however. that the
committee expects to go into court in
spite of the receivers promises, He
said that what Mr.. Sheppard purposed
to do could be accomplished only where
there were no conflicting claims, and
that such instances would be rare
among the 1900 Wagner creditors in
New York and Chicago.

TAX EXEMPT BONDS BLAMED.
Chicago Banker Lays Farmers Ills
to Big Issues.

WASHINGTON, Jan. ia constitu-
tional amendment prohibiting further is
suance Of tax exempt securities would
be OF great benefit to farmers because
1t would reduce the interest rate on
farm mortgages. Edward ID. Chassell OF
Chicago. secretary of the Farm Mort.
gage Bankers Association. told the
House Ways and Means Committee to-
day.
Mr. Chassell said that while farmers
were having difficulty in raising funds
for necessary expenses. States, county
and municipal subdivisions were plung-
ing into ill-advised road improvements on
account of their ability to issue tax
exempt bonds. Mr.. Chassell declared
that previous 70 1913 the amount of tax
free securities issued In any one year
never exceeded s500.0O0.o00, but that
last year the total exceeded $1,000
000,0 900.
Adoption of constitutional amend
ment prohibiting tax free bond issues
was also advocated by Mckinley w.
Kriegh, representing the American Min
ing Congress, and Representative Mills,
Republican, New York.

Trading Is Reduced.

Business in bonds yesterday was on
a reduced scale and there was much
irregularity in prices. Profit taking was
evident in all groups, which, on the
whole, was well absorbed at slight re-
cessions. All active Liberty bond issues
were lower, but Victory notes hardened
slightly. One or two rails were slightly
higher notably Pennsylvania 5s, Mis-
souri, Pacific general As and Atchison
general As. st. Paul issues were easier,
as were Chesapeake and Ohio and st.
Louis Southwestern bonds. Industrial
bonds continued firm, with particular
strength in Diamond Match 71as, Cuba
Cane rs, Sinclair 7hs and American
Smelling 5s. Trading in local traction
bonds was heavy, but price changes in
that group were unimportant.

first, drawing a burst of applause
from the crowded stands. In the
-emi-finals, Hewitt again had to run
against Wagy, and again qualified by
making the fastest second of the
eight heats running. Had Hewitt
been in any other heat but Wagy's
ne would have made first in his heat
IN every case. In the finals he ran
up against Wagy again, the same
men placing in the same order as in
this event last year, which were
Wagy, first; Brown, Fort Collins,
second; and Hewitt, third. Wagy and
Brown both graduate this year, which
should leave good first for Hewitt
next year, as these three runners
We're far ahead of anything else on
the field. The time in the high hurd-
les was l5:4, last years record being
1863. Hewitt's time was about 1871
this year.
In the preliminaries for the low
hurdles, Hewitt took a first in his
heat. In the high jump he also
qualified at 5'5". In qualifying for
all three of his events, Hewitt shows
an improvement over last year, when
he only succeeded in qualifying for
the. high hurdles.
The most sensational victory of

Ernest Foster in the 44O dash, who
won easily against a field of 81 con-
