ACTIVITY ON
MARKET
Foreign Exchange Is Unsettled.
Pound Sterling Reaches
Low Mark of Week.
By Cosmopolitan News Service.

NEW YORK, Jan. 27.-Bullish
activity continued in the stock
market in today's half session and
prices ruled generally higher. Lit
tie significance was attached tc
the unsettled market for foreign
exchange, in the course of which
sterling receded to a new low fol
the week, francs dropped to 629h
only slightly above last years low
and marks descended to a new low
for all time.
Continued increase in consump
ton of oil, copper and steel is re
Elected in higher prices for these
leading commodities. Wall Street
is convinced that there will be a
considerable speeding up of the
wheels Of industry in order to meet
the growing demands of home and
foreign markets, and this win be
the basis of the new prosperity
which the stock markets have
been so clearly foreshadowing.
The market for railroad shares
was the most active section of the
speculative list. Baltimore and
Ohio sold up to a new high at 45R
on publication of its December re-
port, which was much more favor
able than had been anticipated.
Compared with the same month last
year the gain in gross earnings was
% per cent, and in net $50 per cent.
The report was accepted as an indi-
cation OF what might be expected
Of some of the other roads which
are similarly situated. The st. Paul,
Rock Island, New York Central,
New Haven, Pennsylvania and
Reading stocks were active and
generally higher.
Further stimulus was accorded
the oil stocks by reports OF an addi-
tional advance of 10 cents a barrel
in mid-continent crude. Among the
active oils were Phillips Petroleum
ct 52h, Cosden, 55h, and Pan
American around S7A.
Pullman was the most prominent
OF the equipment stocks, advancing
nearly two points to 131 "; Lima
Locomotive was fractionally higher
in most sales, and Baldwin, after
opening around 1881. sold down to
Brooklyn Edison replaced Console
dated Gas as the feature Of the pub
lie utility stocks and, in quite active
trading, sold up Q points at 115h.
Columbia Gas was active around
1871. and Consolidated Gas be-

Quotations at Chicago Far
Above Worlds Market, De-
spite Bearish Feeling.
By THOMAS TEMPLE HOYNE.

OUGCukAGIOn G0t
Grain Market Authority.
(Written for Cosmopolitan News Service.)
CHICAGO, Jan. 27.-The wheat
market at the present time presents
the most remarkable anomoly in
its modern history. Every condition
and all statistics on the world situa-
ton are bearish, and yet our
market does not break to parity
with the worlds market, where
prices are the compromise of world
wide competition. Why?
Because 1t is strongly supported,
principally by what is credited with
being eastern buying on the theory
that Congress will eventually pass
the Norbeck-Nelson bill, which
finance corporation of fund OF
foreign credit to be used in the
purchase of farm products and
American manufactures in this
country
That this bill, or some similar
measure, will be passed is my own
opinion because the President In his
message late last fall said that he
favored aiding the farmer. The
Congress farm blocs and agricul-
tural organizations are all behind it,.
If the bill passes, the effect could
easily put wheat up at least 20
cents above it's present price, and
perhaps much higher. If 1t does
not pass the farmer will come to
his spring planting with the
prospect of much lower prices for
his next crop than now exists.

NEW YORK, Jan. 27.-Brad-
streets weekly Business Review
says today:
While there il considerable talk
Of conservatism In buying, this. by
the way, generally meaning for
more distant positions. there is I'M
rnistakable evidence that domestic
trade in wholesale and jobbing lines
Is broadening out. while manufac-
ture and industry, for the time be-
ing, seem to have assumed leader
ship 50 far as cheerful reports are
concerned.
1T might be noted, however, that
even collections are slightly better.
Compared with . year ago at this
time. all branches Of trade and in
dustry are much more active and
collections have improved. Reports
from Industrial lines are, In fact,
the best received since the spring
Of 1920. whereas trade reports have
yet. some ground to gain before
equalling the brisk business of last
autumn if, indeed, it is possible for
business at this period OF the year
to equal that Of the fall season.
I'm industry, activity Is virtually
countrywide, this meaning build
ing, mining and numbering as well
as ordinary factory operation. and
labor Is employed to an extent rare
In mid-winter.
Current export trade, though
better than a year ago. Is at best
only mediocre, and available returns
Of last years export details are In
striking contrast with what is
known to have been done in do
nestle lines. Our export trade in
foods showed q big decrease; for
eign takings OF our wheat for six
months Of the cereal year 1929
are heavily below that same period
Of 1921-22, and the best showing
made among our exports in the
cruder forms Of American products,
that by raw cotton. has been pos
sible because Of higher prices off
setting 1essened volume Of export.

NEW YORK, Jan. 27.-While the
offering of new bonds during the
past week made a sharp drop from
those of the preceding three weeks
Of the New Year, the aggregate was
well up to the average of the last
six months. The most prominent
new issues of the week were in
connection with financing of the two
prominent steel companies. Bethle-
hem with $25,O00.0O0 and Re-
public $10,000,000. The aggregate
for the week was $50, 600, 900, Of
which the industrial group made up
SAT 100000; State and municipal,
roads, $4,000, 900 eacn.
The $40, 100000 railroad issue was
in connection with the financing Of
the Northern Pacific railway; the
public utility issues the financing of
the Memphis Power and Light Com.
pany and the Philadelphia Rapid
Transit Company, and the largest
municipal issue the new $1,000, 600

French Bonds Low.
In the listed bond market the
heavy selling and the steady decline
Of the bonds of the French govern
ment, both issues of which reached
new low prices for all time.
The per cent sold as low as
91A and the Tvs at 88&. These
bonds have reached price where
even conservative Wall street IN
vestment bankers consider them
very attractive
The outstanding volutne of these
bonds on our side of the ocean ID
becoming smaller and smaller.
France has always lived UP to her
obligations, and our bankers can
see no reason to believe that the
French government viii aver
repudiate- the bonds it has sold to
our investors.
Following the adoption by the
House of Representatives Of the tax
exemption referendum, there was q
lively scramble for tax exempt
Liberty 3h per cent bonds as well
as for municipals in the unlisted
market.
Publication OF the refinancing
plan of the Brooklyn Rapid Transit
Company was responsible for heavy
buying of the outstanding bonds

There was a strong market for
domestic industrial bonds with a
slightly easier trend in the steel
issues. Railroad bonds were gen.

HE TALKED TOO MUCH
Divers Assistant Forgot and Former
Almost browned-Helper Arrested
On Negligence Charges.

Detroit, Aug. Russell Hurt of
Sandwich, Ontario, today is under ar
rest for divers reasons.
Captain" John Spear, a diver was
40 feet under water at Ojibway, On
tario, yesterday and Hurt, his helper.
was on the dock. One end of rope
around Spears waist, the other in the
hands of Hurt whose job 1t was to
heave vigorously when the captain"
signalled that he wanted to come out
of the water.
The captain" signalled and Hurt
heaved, Spear climbed a ladder with
the assistance of the strong pull at his
waist.
Half way to the surface the rope
Stacked. Captain" Spear, who is we'll
along in years, all but fell back to the
bottom. Fighting the pressure of the
water and hampered by his heavy
diving suit he fought his way to the
surface and reached the dock ex-
hausted.
In making complaint to the Can
adam authorities, Captain" Spear
said Hurt became engrossed in con-
versation with passerby, and forgot
all about his chief under the water.
The warrant charges commercial

Commissioners Feel That IS
Year Maximum May En-
danger Efficiency of De-
partment.

Because the next regular meeting o
the common council comes August 10
there will be no special meeting thu
evening, Mayor A. NJ. Paonessa stat
ed last evening. when asked about the
expected session tonight. The board
OF public works is ready to recon-
smend the awarding of the contract
for Broad street paving and 1t had
been expected that special meeting
of the council would be called this
evening TO award the contract.
Mayor Paonessa at first intended TO
call the meeting this evening. but de-
cided II was unnecessary, as a matter
of two weeks, he feels, does not make
enough difference to warrant a spe-
cial session at this time.
At the regular meeting August 10
1t is expected an effort may be made
to change the ordinance adopted at
the last meeting making the maxi
mum age for the appointment of pa
trolmen to the regular force at 80
years. There has been much dissatis-
faction with the ordinance and police
officials, including members of the
board OF police commi ssioners, are
very much opposed to the 35 year
limit, instead of the 40 year limit
which has been recommended by the
commissioners
The 35 year limit will work a grave
injustice upon a number of men, &C
cording to Chief of Police Hart in
discussion shortly after the last meet
ing.
The city ordinance requires that
policeman must be on the supernum-
erary force at least two years before
he is eligible to appointment on the
regular force. This means that a man
who is more than 33 years old has no
chance to become regular police
man, and in the opinion of the COM
missioners and others bars a man
from the police force when he is Just
in the prime of life.
1t Is thought that the reason the
maximum age limit was made as low
as IS years was because the council
men did not wish to see large drain
on the police pension fund, but the
commissioners point out, in this case
~ Wcoiu pC boIICE " CndHkG the pen
SION fund regulations rather than in
ferfere with the efficiency of the po-
lice department..
There are at the present time a
number of men on the supernumerary
force who are eligible in every way to |
appointmnt to the regular force ex-
cept that when their two years are up |
they will have passed 35 years of age, |
and who. under the present ordinance
will not be subject to promotion.
1t u understood that several coun-
ell members have expressed them
selves as Of different opinion on the
subject since the situation has been
pointed out to them. Chairman
David L. Dunn of the board of police
commissioners says the board has /
several very good reasons why the age
limit should be 40 years rather than
35.
