STOCKS DROP
UNDER BEAR
ATTACK
New Low Prices for Many
Leading Stocks in Early
Trading.
BY Cosmopolitan News Service.

NEW YORK, May AFTER dis.
playing strength in certain issues at
the opening, stocks were subjected
to heavy liquidation in the first two
hours trading on the stock exchange
today. Originally, the appearance of
unusually large buyers in repre-.
sentative issues, like New York Cen
trail, Chile Copper and Corn Prod
ucts, with an accompanying jump in
quotations, was followed by mod
crate short covering in other parts
of the list. When 1t became known,
however, that checks received by
brokerage houses to cover purchases
in mentioned stocks were false, the
bears, relieved of a temporary un.
pleasant situation, launched a sharp
drive. against the entire list and sue.
ceeded in establishing new low prices
for many leading stocks. Victimized
brokers were forced to throw over
large blocks of stocks, canceling
earlier gains and adding substantial
losses besides.
The statement by the Treasury
Department, accompanying the an.
nouncement of the issuance of $4O0,-
100000 of Az per cent Treasury
notes. that the gross public debt at
the close of the fiscal year would
be reduced by 1000, 900 900, since
April 80, 1921, and that there will
be Treasury surplus of $125, O00,.

steel stocks also broke sharply, no.

Oil stocks were also affected nv

from one to two points were regis.
tered by Pan-American at SO, Hous-
ton Oil at 81. California Petroleum
at Ssh and Sinclair at 3O1a.
Sugar stocks, although lower.
were not weak The renewed

Expected to Be Sold.
By HARRY GUsACK.

With the closing of the subscrip.
ton books today on the $4,000, 900
Issue of the Washington Gas Light
Company's per cent mortgage gold
bonds practically the entire amount
will have been absorbed by Wash
lngton investors, it was stated by
OFFICIALS of the company today.
That local investors looked with
favor upon the issue is evidenced by
the fact that although the bonds
nave been on sale only one week, a
large majority of the issue was sub.
scr1bed to by the small investor,
consisting largely of gas users. en-
ployes. and stockholders in the com.
pany..
Another popular feature of the of.
fering was the partial payment plan
ADOPTED by the company in the sale
or the securities. This method en-.
abled hundreds of persons of limited
means to participate in the issue and
ct the same time be paid interest in
the installments during the period

ing great work, but the work does
not stop there. The men are not
trained and just sent out into the
world to struggle for a position. An
employment service has been .estab-
lished to find places for these trained
men. This is difficult thing to ac-
complish, but 1 have learned that out
of 33,111 men seeking positions, 3D.
953 have been placed and were at
work up to the first day of September.
That means that out of the 33,111 up
to that date only 1,15S were not en-
ployed. Even that number is not as
large as it may sound because it in
cludes many men who cannot be To-
Gated or who are sick or who. do not
want work.
CAN of these facts would lead US to
believe that a great deal more money
is being spent in the Veterans bureau
that has been spent in the past. The
truth is that these improvements have
been made at time when General
Hines has also succeeded in cutting
down expenses. The amount of money
saved is already very large and will
probably run into MILLIONS every
year. When you can actually say that
branch of the government at Wash
ington is doing real efficient work
and saving MILLIONS OF DOLLARS
EACH YEAR., it is something worth
telling to every taxpayer.
