STOCK TRADING
 WAS IRREGULAR
 BUT VERY ACTIVE
Advices From Auto CenterS Referred to the Material h. crease in Business the
 Last Fortnight
By Associated Press

New York, March s.-Trading. in the stock market today was active but attended by frequent intervals of irregularity. The trend of financial industrial and commercial events continued favorable.
 International currencies were the only noteworthy exceptions. al- though the initial setback in that quarter was largely retrieved later. Heaviness of British and Allied re- mittances in the early dealings was ascribed to disappointment of the declination of the United States gov ernment to participate in the Genoa conference.
 More price advances in finished steel and iron were announced by independent producers. Reports that the United States Steel Corporation had taken cognizance of this situa- ton to the extent of meeting these advances were denied
 Advices from centers of the auto mobile industry referred to the ma terial increase during the last fort night in the production Of cars and trucks and another general upward revision of sugar prices accompanied the more stable market for that com modity.
 Spec;alties of the chemical and af- filiated groups, Studebaker Sinclair and several of the dividend paying rails featured the markets progres- sive side, but foreign oils, inde- pendent steels and several of the equipments were backward.
 The A per cent opening rate for call loans was soon reduced to { per cent in the open market and to B.: per cent in private offerings. Two and three months money was of fered at a fraction under A per cent but the longer maturities remained firm at , per cent, On the late re- bound sterling rose a fraction over yesterdays final price, French, Bel gian and Italian rates were , to ' points better and the Norwegian rate was very strong although other Scandinavian bills were lower with the dutch rate.

WHY MIX THE FIGURES

In his speech-making tour of the
state John II. Miller, republican cam
didate for governor. invariably makes
the statement that the Boulder can
yon dam, which has been so heartily
Endorsed by Colonel Scrugham, will
cost the nation, If it is built, the stu
pendous sum of $780, 600.
Anybody who has kept abreast of
the times knows that the cost of the
project has never been estimated
above $40, 900. 900, and a bill appro-
priating that amount has been intro
duced in the United States senate by
Senator Pittman for the completion
of the work. Miller should know this
il he knows anything. and his con-
tinual r~eiteration that the larger
amount will be the cost of construc-
ton indicates a simplicity on his
part that is to be d%eplored, or he pur.
posely misrepresents in order that
the amount may appear unseemly
and be regarded as e~xtrayagant by
the great mass of people and intend
ed to arouse a sentiment or prejudice
tDdl IA 1T ihlItldlt d6otHSA TIC IiOp-
osition.
II should not be assumed that nil
Ter is opposed to the Boulder canyon
project, which means so much TO Ne
yada, but there is a chance for sus-
picion following the muddled state
ments he has made. In all events
Miller should make his statements
absolutely clear. so that there would
be no grounds for misapprehension.
When the Boulder canyon confer
enee was on in Phoenix, Ariz., a few
months ago, and at which Colonel
Scrugham represented Nevada, there
was a lobby present that opposed
every nov that tended TO make the
project a governmental affair. This
lobby was led by the Southern Cali
fornia Edison Company, which was
opposed to the Boulder canyon site
and in favor of the installation of
the great dam on the Arizona-Utah
border at Glen canyon. Every influ-
ence possible was brought to bear
to defeat federal construction. That
influence Is still being exerted, both
here at home and at the national cap
ital. And il suggests the query
whether or not there is any connec-
ton between the efforts that are be-
ing projected by the Southern Cali
fornia company and the i%nconclusive
and evasive statements made by John
II. Miller.

NoNPARTIsAN COUNTY TICKET
WHAT INSPIRES HIS CRITICIsMs?I

William M. Kearney, who has &C
companied the republican candidates
on their visits to a number of the
towns in the western and central
parts OF the state and who in his ad-
dresses confines himself solely to
criticisms of James G.. Scrugham and
the 1atter's conduct of the state en-
~gineer's Office, was from 1911 to
1916 chief of that department. In
the latter year he was removed by
Governor Boyle. For a brief while
after that Seymour Case served as
head of the department and then
Colonel Scrugham was appointed.
Kearney's main criticism against
Colonel Scrugham is extravaganza.
but not a word does he say as to the
achievements that the latter made.
But perhaps those, II given out by
kearney himself, would detract from
ious comparison. However, here are
some of the facts taken from the
records and susceptible to substanti.
alton. Divested of detail and re-
duced TO "A minimum they are as fol-
lows:
During the time Mr.. Kearney was
state engineer s145.0 900 was spent
and three small creeks involving
1867 acres were adiudicated. J.
c.. Scrugham became state engineer
in 1917. He served less than a year,
when he went to the war. He re-
turned from the war in 1919 after
the armistice and was again appoint
ed state engineer. Since that time
he has completed the adjudication of
ten streams in the state. involving an
area of 36f.307 acres. During Kear-
ney's administration practically moth
ing was done. Scrugham's admins
tration has been one of real achieve
ment. The Kearney administration
adjudieated 1907 acres at a cost of
$145. 900. or SS7 an acre, i'm six
years. Scrugham in four years, al
a cost of 100000. has adjudicated
water rights involving 36l. 307 acres
OF land. or at a cost of 80 cents per
acre.
As all of Scrugham's work shows.
he gets things done.
