FINANCIAL REVIEW.

Uneasiness over the foreign news was
reflected in today's markets, principally
by a decline in the exchanges and by
marked weakness in European govern
ment bonds. French francs got down to
almost the low point of a week ago
which was only a half cent above the
extreme low of November, The I'M
fortunate German mark continued to
sink in the position of the other cur
rencies of Central Europe, the worth
lessness Of which has long been tacitly
acknowledged.
of more consequences was the heavy
selling movement both abroad and here
in French and Belgian government
loans. The French LIS dealt in on
the dollar basis broke through their
previous low record of 81. The French
SIS came within point of their bot
tom and the Belgian lbs were a point
below the lowest at which they sold all
last year. French municipal monds were
even weaker than the government is
sues.
1t was very clear from all this that
banking opinion did not share the
optimism expressed from Paris regard
ing the outcome OF the cOerciYe meas
ures in the Rubr. There was. of course.
no idea that anythink would come OF
the sensational talk Of clash between
the French and the German reichswehr.
Neither was any serious uprising OF
the German people considered likely.
But the financial markets continued TO
register their conviction which they have
felt all along that, for the best in
terests of the French and Belgian repa-
ration claims, it was a mistake 10 eN-
lao - - 80
q settlement by force.
The success of Germany's economic
protest" is, TO b sure, problematical.
But if the German miners persist in
their present attitude of refusing 10
work under French control, the posi-
ton from he French standpoint is GO
ing TO be pretty awkward.
Under the test imposed by the weak
ness in foreign government bonds and
in the exchange, the other markets
showed surprisingly little concern. Had
stocks been in the position they were
two months ago a selling movement OF
considerable severity would have been
likely. but inasmuch as the public has
not been in Wall street to any extent
during the campaign of the last month
and a half, there has been no oppor-
tunity to distribute stocks from the
hands of pools and banking inter
ests.
This was the technical version Of the
steadiness shown during the greater
part of the session today. but the
broader Interpretation remained as it
has been right along, that the bond and
stock markets were holding up because
they could see nothing damaging from
the home trade outlook in what is now
happening or in what is likely to hap
pen abroad.

REACTION FOLLOWS
DECLINE IN STOCKS
AFTER FIRST HOUR
Prices Go Down But Lack OF
Liquidation Starts
Rally by Midday.
Ry STUART Z. WEST.

Copyright, 1923, by The San Antonio Light
New York, Jan. G7.-The action of
the stock market suggested today that
speculative pools and banking inter
ests wre putting in supporting orders
to offset the selling inspired by Euro
pean developments. Professional trad
ers were at work DON the short side
for the first hour or so. They sue
ceeded in getting some of the leaders
of the list like Baldwin Locomotive,
Studebaker, California Petroleum and
Pan-American down a point or so.
This selling movement. however, was
suspended as soon as it became obvious
that no liquidation was under Way. BY
midday the ground lost had ben just
about regained.
A large block Of Cosden was taken
Just under SO, and the stock did we'll in
tn later trading. Anaconda was strong
ly supported around 40. The idea that
following the present $1O0,O00,O00 is
sue Of consolidated mortgage 6 per cent
bonds, the proposed S50,000,000 deben-
ture issue will b made convertible into
the stock at 80. IL this is so. there
would be an object in keeping Anaconda
stock around the conversion figure.
The pools in Beechnut Packing, Mack
Truck and Packard Motors, took good
care of their specialties. Packard Mo-
tors was ocnspicuously active and
strong. An enormous amount OF this
stock was absorbed recently between 10
and II, and the subsequent rise has
been based upon the view that the
present good earnings of the company
and the high yield warranted higher
pirces for the stock.
Railway shares did little one way or
the other. aPrticular pressure was di-
rected at the independent steel stocks,
but without any great amount of sue
cess. Hudson Motors stood out strong
ly. this being another case where the
comparatively high return has been at
tracing a good deal of genuine semi
investment buying.

When a player is making a free

The player is not supposed to con-

|Cocoanut Oil Fine
 For Washing Hair

If you want to keep your hair in good condition, be careful what you wash it with.
 Many oaps and prepared shampoos contain too much free alkali. This dries the scalp. makes the hair brittle, and is very harmful. Mulsifed cocoa nut oil shampoo (which is pure and entirely greaseless), is much better than anything else you can use for shampooing, as this cannot possibly injure the hair.
 Simply moisten your hair with water and rub it in. Two or three teaspoonfuls Of Mulsified will make an abundance of rich, creamy lather, and cleanse the hair and scalp thor oughly. The lather rinses out easily. and removes every particle of dust. dirt. dandruff and excess oil. The hair dries quickly and evenly. and it leaves it fine and silky, bright, fluffy, wavy, and easy to manage.
 You can get Mulsified cocoanut oil shampoo at any drug store. It is in- expensive. and a few ounces will last everyone in the family for months. Be sure and ask for "Mulsified."

piece of detective work was car ried out yesterday morning by a hen owned by Mrs. Joe Falcetta of Chris tian Lane, when she found 12 of her baby chicks that had been stolen the night before.
 Mrs. Falcetta greased the heads of the chicks Wednesday night and placed them under the hen. locking the chicken coop and all was well. However. yesterday morning when she went out to the coop to see how the chickens were getting along and to feed them, she found the old hen wandering around disconsolately, her babies missing.
 Mrs. Falcetta looked around awhile in an effort to discover the young chickens and discovered in the yard of Joe Wasso, a neighbor, 12 baby chickens that looked suspiciously like the missing ones, since their heads were also greased.
 Mrs. Falcetta imm ediately secured the mother of the missing chickens and placed her near the fence, where she clucked to her missing babies. Immediately the 12 chicks ran to the fence, endeavoring to get through.
 Mrs. Falcetta notified the police and Constable Frank Brown came down and arrested Joe Wasso on a charge of chicken stealing. Upon investiga- ton the box in which the chickens had been placed was found in the cellar of the Wasso home cut up into pieces and hidden.
