We hope to make it plain to our
readers that the district office in Min
neapolis is authorized to make any
award to the soldier that the case may
justify up to and including temper
airy total disability and its decision
is final unless appealed to the central
office. In the case Of an award of
temporary total disability by the Dis

until final action is taken by the Cen
trail Office Board of Appeals on the
question of making the rating perma-

THOSE HIGHWAY BONDS

While the Tribune is in hearty &C
cord with those who look to the leg
islature for the strictest economy il
expenditures, yet we fail to see an!
real economy in curtailment of the
highway program proposed by Com
missioner Babcock. Considerable op-
position has developed to his proposed
plan for two ten million dollar bone
issues by which he hopes to bring to
an early complexion the highway
program which was contem-
plated under Amendment No. 1. Such
opposition is not based altogether on
sound argument.
AS matter of fact, the bonds can
not bring about any increase in taxes,
since they will be paid off under pro-
visions of the automobile law, but
they will provide the necessary funds
with which to give the country dis
tricts needed roads which would other
wise be built piecemeal. "Let us pay
for our roads as we CO." says the op-
position, but it may be pointed out
that there is just as much sense in
building home by erecting the foun-
dalton one year, the first story the
next, the superstructure next, etc.,
the interior finishing coming after a
long lapse of years, as there is in
this continual tearing up of country
roads. Our traffic demands have
changed since the days of the poll
tax system of building roads, and we
must govern ourselves accordingly.
Manifestly a small section of good
road on given stretch is of little
use, as the farmer who hauls his pro-
duct to market must adjust his LOAF
to conform to the bad stretch, and like
wise the traveller in his touring car
must Judge road by its bad features.
By all means let us get our roads fixed
up-and that soon.
We approve of the Babcock plan UNI
der which Minnesota can build her
roads in the same manner as the man
of ordiary means builds a home-by
using his credit to provide comfort for
the present for himself and family. 1t
is the right idea with respect to home
building-it is the right idea with re
spect to road building. No one will
benefit as much as will the farmer
from such a program. He needs good
roads now for his present convenience
and comfort, and will be more content
ed and will possess more valuable
holdings when good road passes his
door.
The Babcock bond plan should not
be mixed up with the general program
for reducing taxes all along the line
"a program which meets with the
hearty approval of this newspaper.

BOND MARKET FIRM
Trading Is DulI-High Grade Securi
ties Very Strong.

Copyright. by The San Antonio Light.
New York, Aug. 6.-While trading
was dull. today's bond market was dis
tinctly firm. and especially in the high
grade securities. Much attention is be-
ing paid just now TO the action of the
so-called gilt edge bonds. Theory is
that in the event of business reaction
in the fall, capital would flow into
these bonds and cause an advance in
the price. Any cheapening of money
would have the same effect,
Brisk business and augmented de-
mand for funds would react unfavor.
ably upon the highest grade of securi.
ties. So far there has been little to
learn from the market course Of this
group. Prices have been very steady
for month past. but with little appre-
citation in price. While speculative
bonds have been declining and stocks
reacting, there has been no weakness
in these bonds, although there has
been little evidence of institutional
buying.
Atchison general Is are bonds typi-
cal of this class. They sold today
up n half point over Saturdays clos
ing and more than five points above
the low of the year. Today's price was
also within a half point of the high
this year. Another instance is Western
Union Real Estate lbs which sold
today within 3-S of a point of the
high of the year and over 3 points
above the low. Z. S. Steel sinking
fund Is are selling about half between
the high and the low for the year.

CATTLE TRADE is
SLOW TO START;
HOGS UP 5 CENTS
Weather Conditions Prove

Copyright by The San Antonio Light.
Chicago, Aug. 6.-After a strong
and higher market for all kinds of cat
tic last week. the trade was slow at
the start of the present period. Fresh
receipts were not heavy, but weather
conditions were not favorable for an
active trade. 1t rained hard during
the early hours. In the hog house
values were strong. Less than 5000
were held over from last week with
about 1900 forwarded to big killers.
The stock was wet in the sheep house
and trading was slow to start. Less
than 800 were received by packers
from other trading points while no
cattle were received this way. Re-
ceipts 10000 cattle: 10000 hogs :;
$4,000 sheep and $500 calves.
Choice heavy steers found fair

Bulk of bologna bulls went at 81 TO

calves also held at unchanged prices.
Some choice lots went TO small kill
ers at S12 while packers took most
good vealers at $11 to $11.2J.
Light hogs sold strong 10 ) cents

not count on an active demand froIl

trade and paid values that were strong

CURB IS IRREGULAR
Oil Shares Are Active at Generally
Higher Prices.

Copyright by The San Antonio Light.
New York. Aug. 6.-The general
price movement on the Curb Exchange
today was irregular. Professional OPP
orators, however, were reluctant about
extending their operations on the
short side and were more disposed
TO cover in outstanding contracts.
Buying OF this character had its eff
fects after the first hour or so and
active leaders followed the higher
price drift on the stock exchange. I'm
easiness over the present situation in
the oil industry and the outlook for
the future was a good deal lessened.
Renewal of buying in Standard OF
Indiana followed the declaration of
the regular dividend OF ~ IL cents a
share. The professionals who had been
active on the short side of the oils
were compelled TO bid prices mp when
they tried to cover in their contracts
today. Prairie Oil and Gas was ex-
ceptionally strong and substantial ad-
vances were made in Imperial Oil
of Canada, Vacuum and Eureka Pipe
Line. South Penn was another fav-
orite, advancing two points, when it
sold at 100.
Humphreys led the Independent
group and reached new high record
well above 40. Weakness in the
Derby issues was feature. The de.
cline in the latter cHrried both the
preferred and common to new lows for
the year.
National Supply led industrials up
almost . points at the opening when
it sold ex-dividend at 80. Reading
rights were active and the other Read
ing issues were neglected. Improve
ment continued in Mesaba Iron.
Coal stocks shared TO some extent
in the improvement. notably Glen AL
den and Lehigh Valley.

New York. Aug. 6.-The action Of
the market today bore out the analysis
of the Saturday decline that it was a
sympathetic movement accompanying
the weakness in railway stocks. Right
at the opening this morning it became
evident that the pressure hal been

down most severely and in which there
was supposed 10 the heaviest short in
terest. In the first category were
American Locomotive and American

Crucible Steel, L. y. Rubber and the
sugars. There was very little Punta
