Irregular Price Movements in
industrial Stocks Feature
Early Trading

NEW YORK, Dec. Irregular
price movements in the industrial
stocks featured the early trading
in the stock market today. There
were additional evidences OF sell
ing for profit-taking in the oils
and industrials. though this selling
pressure did not appear to be az
heavy as in the first hour on Mon.
day. The high.priced Industrial
stocks were buoyed up by lpool
support, to which was added d cer.
tain amount of buying for short
covering. But the rank and file
or Industrial shares which did not
have this special support were
compelled to drop down into
slightly lower price leYels, and the
same was true Of the railroad
shares.
Speculation over the rumorea
me-lon.cutting in American Can was
brought to an end, for the time
being at least, by the action OF the
dI ectors in declaring an extra cash
dividend of ~ share, and max
ing no commitment on the n1atte..
OF the stock dividend. Another
railroad was added to the ranks of
dividend payers when the directors
OF New York, Ontario and Western
road ordered the payment OF 81 a
share to holders OF the common
stock.
General Electric continued in the
first hour the rally which was in
progress at the close Of Mondays
session. The stock sold above 29S,

American Can dropped back a point

oilss which were the leaders In the
oil stocks in recent sessions. Cast

Coal encountered heavy selling and

The equipment stocks were the
leaders in new forward movement
in this period. Pullman moved up
nearly points to new high at

The grain and cotton markets were

Selling pressure increased in the
second hour. General Electric at 2g2
showed loss of about points from
the high Of the first hour. Ameri-
can Can was down 3 att 1854 and
Cast Iron Pipe down 4 at155. Rails
and industrials continued the de.
cline and the general trend of the
market was again downward, with
little indication of railving ten.

SOUTH GEORGIA PLANS
B | G TOBACCO CROP

ATLANTA, May Tobacco
growing in South Georgia is well es,
tablished and with good demonstra-
tors-men who have made sue
cess of tobacco growing-farmers
are expected to make large profits
next season.
This was the opinion expressed
here today by agricultural agents
it was pointed out that the soil il.
a large section Of South Georgia
in what is known as the tobacco
belt is especially adapted to the
growing of the weed-much of it
being better than that of the origi-
nal tobacco sections of the Middle
Atlantic states. Well drained sandy
loan soils with bright yellow sandy
sub-soils are said to give the most
profitable returns, and this soil may
be found in many portions of South
Georgia.
Reports received here indicate
that warehousing facilities in many
sections of South Georgia have been
increased and the next tobacco crop
will probably be larger than it was
last season when a fortune was nct-
ted by many Of the growers.

Wanian, said: ''The Bible says 'suf-
fer little children to come unto and
forbid them not Our children are
our first consideration. We have
dipping watts for cows and hogs,
win We be less considerable of our
children? Unless we provide a
healthful place here for them to
SWIM, they will go to the creeks
and ponds, which are unhealthy and
where their moral welfare can not
be looked after as we do in this
pool"
Frank Sheffield, Walter RylanieI-
Rev. John M. Cutler, John Sheffield
and others unqualifiedly endorsed
the effort to continue the pool aud
pay off its indebtedness.
Misses Mary Dudley, Mary Park

Broadway which netted $3.50 for
the Playground Association.
Mr.. Cargill told the civic clubs
that he would resign as presid Mt
of the playground association when
the board of control met last night
or today. lis resignation is necess-

ing to continue throughout the
week and which is being tsaged by
the Tom Jones company, of Grand
Dapids, Michigan, which c. L. Me.
Keever as their representative here
to conduct the sale, success is as
sured.
Mr.. McKeever talked to the sales
and service force last night for.
fully an hour and delivered to those
departments of the Rylander organ
ization poppy message, dealing
largely with the difficulties often
experienced by statesmen during
large sales. The Tom Jones rep
resentative very successfully dem
onstrated many sources through
which those difficulties could easily
be overcome to assure the customer
a warm welcome and a pleasant
business relation with the house
while attending the sale.
Immediately after the doors were
thrown open this morning at the
Ford s.!es and service station, Gus
toners Logan to flow in and many
sales were effected before noon.
Evan Mathis sales manager OF
Americas Auto Co., in an interview
with a Times-Recorder representa-
tive stated that it was the purpose
OF the sale to make room for new
cars now en- route from the factory
to supply the spring demand and
that they were very proud of the
fact that they had secured the serv-
ices of the Tom Jones company, OF
Grand Rapids, a very reputable com
pany whose business is to move
used cars and further expressed ap-
probation Of the Jones company as
signing Mr.. KcKeever to this city
to conduct the sale.
While there is a large variety ana
a wide range to select from the
Americas Co., wish to stress the I'M
portance Of those desiring to pun
chase good used cars - come as
carly as possible because it is the
intention Of both the Jones company
and the Americas Auto Co., to move
the cars as quickly as possible.
The sale will continue through
out the week and the Ford dealer
will remain open nights for the
benefit Of those who cannot con
veniently arrange to attend during
the day.
