TRADING ON CURB

NEW YORK, November S.-There
was a pronounced broadening tend.
ency to the trading on the New York
Curb Exchange all through the week
rejecting a substantial increase In
outside-interest and also accumulation
of many issues by those concerned in
their control. Petroleum stocks were
irregular, several of them being
bought because of special develop
ments.
Prairie OIL and Gas following the
announcement of the acquisition OF
producers and refiners moved up to
190, but profit-taking sales caused 6.
quick reaction to ia. from which
there was another upturn. Toward
the close of the week Mutual OIL
was bought and bid for on large
scale in connection with the bring
ing in of its well in the Powell field
with an initial flow, of 10000 barrels,
which was at once connected up with
Humble and Magnolia Pipe lines.
The leading Standard Oil issues
moved within comparatively narrow
range, but they also were in de-
mand and at times made vigorous ad-
vances. Royal Canadian Syndicate
was a feature in the low-priced group
because of buying based on the re-
port of the president of the company
about the developments in the Sweet
Grass Arch field.
Industrial stocks also showed
strength during a good part OF the
week.

Ku Klux Khan One Obstacle---Organi-

Varied Activities of Veterans.

SAN Francisco, Oct. 1S.-Interest OF
delegates to the fifth annual conven-
ton of the American Legion centers
in the stand to be taken by the Or
ganization on important public ques-
tons. Confronted with the neces-
sity for speedy action on resolutions
prepared by committees during the
past two days, the delegates today
wrcstled with recommendation and
found the harmonizing Of widely
divergent views among the Legion
naires their most difficult task.
Protracted committee sessions yes
terday and last night resulted in the
preparation of resolutions defining the
attitude of the Legion on the chief
problems of organization policy in a
manner generally considered satisfac-
tory, although committee leaders re-
fused to reveal the proposals prior to
the convention session.
The Ku Klux Khan issue, which de-
veloped into deadlock yesterday,
with Michigan delegates holding out
for complete reputation of the or
ganization, was one of the major
questions confronting the delegates
today Likewise, the bonus problem,
upon which. some of the delegates.
hold divergent views, doomed forth
in today's deliberations.
A spirit of compromise developed in
connection with both issues last night.
Caucuses of delegates supporting
different candidates for national COM
mander lasted until the early hours
of this morning. Available informa-
ton does not indicate any outstand-
ing choice. The election will be de-
cided tomorrow.
The delegates yesterday were enter
,ained at a mammoth military and
aerial display at the Preside and
-rissy Field, in which huge fleet of
lrmy and navy airplanes. and troops
stationed here participated. In the
'vening tho Legion Posts of ten Cali
ornia cities and counties held a
olorful and elaborate parade through

uets. dances and reunions closed the
ay.

the oldest clubs in the Senior high
school will begin the season Of 1928
1924 tomorrow evening at o'clock
in the school auditorium. The club
in it's long existence has been one of
the foremost social organizations of

interesting lectures on the govern

and throughout the state. The club
has been SO successful that great
increase in membership has been not
ed from year to year. Miss Ilga
Harvey will again act as supervisor,
a position she has held since she
came to the school about seven years
ago.
The club is composed wholly Of
members of the senior classes. Its

out its long existence it has been the
leading club in the school, this year
being no exception. It now has in
