Shares Reach New High
in Early Trading
by international News Service.

NEW YORK, Dec. 16.--Aa new
high level for the average price of
both industrial and railroad stocks
was established shortly after the
opening of the market today.
While profit taking was INDUCED in
in many of the industrial and spe-
cialty stocks which have featured
I'm spectacular price movements
since Saturday, the main body Of
stocks pushed upward to higher
prices, with Colorado Fuel and
Iron, Savage Arms, Dawson Chem
zeal, Stewart Warner and other
speciality stocks replacing Cast Iron
Pipe and Worthington Pump as the
leaders in the markets pyrotechnic
display. Radio Corporation, Amer
lean WOODEN and American Sugar
sold at higher prices, while oils
were again unsteady.
Since the close of yesterdays
market two important constructive
Developments gave encouragement
to the bullish interests In the stock
market. These were the placing Of
the preferred stock of the Katy"
railroad on a per cent dividend
basis and the declaration Of the full
dividend on the stock Of Prairie Oil
and Gas Company. General indus
trial development were favorable
and call money renewed at 3 per
cent. A number Of the railroad
shares, including Great Northern
| pfd., Reading, Union Pacific and
Atchison were active and strong in
the early trading and Industrial in.
vestment stocks were also in good
demand. But their market action
was overshadowed by that Of the
more speculative nondividend stocks
which have been the favorites of
pools and professional operators.
After comparative inactivity Colo
! RADIO Fuel was pushed to the front
and sold points higher.
| Savage Arms rushed up 3 points
to new high at So. Radio Cor
poration gained, 2 points at 4StS;
American Wooden sold points
higher; American Sugar was up IN
points on reports of a reorganiza-
| ton in the personnel of the company:
Stewart Warner continued the up
! ward move which has been In
progress for a week or more.
Worthington Pump was erratic,
| declining to IS for a loss of 5
points from yesterdays high, and
then advancing to above 81. Cast
Iron Pipe appeared to have con-
cIuded its gyrations. for the time
being and was comparatively in
active. The oils had another fainting
spell, as a result OF which frac-
| tional losses we're recorded by most
| of the independent shares.
Outside markets were steady,
with cotton up to 20 points and
wheat and corn fractionally higher.

The Commissioners traff1c commit

as a result of the recent creation OF
an official traffic board in the Dis

This was made known YESTERDAY
in a letter sent by the Commissioners
to Ringgold Hart, chairman Of the
traffic committee, in which 1t was
said:
1T Is not believed that the ap-
pointment of this board will affect
the duties which have been so eff
ticiently performed by your commit

board is to coordinate the interests
of the various departments of the
District Your committee brings ir
the opinions and the desires of in
terests outside of the District gov
ernment and, therefore, has a mos;
important function which could not
be performed by the traffic board
This letter is written in order tha
there may be no misunderstanding o.

Progressive" Side.
TELLS OF PAY-BILL ROW

The plan to place the appointment
of the members of the board of educa-
tion in the hands Of the District Com
missioners was flayed vigorously by
Ernest c. Greenwood. vice president
of the board, speaking before the
Columbia Heights Citizens Associa-
tion, at a meeting held at st. Steph-
ems parish hall last night.
'T am afraid of this scheme" Mr..
Greenwood said. "In two or three
years you would have a board of
education made up of yes men and
women. meeting to carry out plans
made in the District building
One of two things must be done,
according to Mr. Greenwood. Either
do away with the board of education
sioner of education, or divorce the en-
tire schooI aamiuis ration from the Dis
rict government.
Opposed to Secrecy.
He spoke against executive or
"Star chamber" sessions of the board
with the possible exception of times
when II might be necessary to con-
slider individual cases of teachers.
Referring to the Commissioners
teachers pay bill, Mr.. Greenwood said
that the board of education had nc
knowledge whatever of that bill, in
which was incorporated "a cute little
provision" having to do with the ap-
pointment of the members of the
board OF education.
He branded the Commissioners bill
as "an after-holiday sale. marked
down." stating that it did not provide
as well for the teachers as did the
bill advocated by the board. Mr.
Greenwood said that teachers com
penSation has not kept pace with the
cost of living.
Case OF Other Cities.
The speaker said there seems a
general impression that the shortage
In chool facilities here is rather a
unique situation. But I find in al
most every city in the United States
that the school authorities are behind
in the building program" he said
I'VE rank pretty well with other
large cities. If we keep on going al
our present rate we will catch up in
five years
Mr.. Greenwood said that the mildest
term applied to him and Capt. Peyser
member of the board, was progress
sive bloc" and, speaking of friction
between the board and the District
building. said that all we want to
do is something for the children OF
the District" The thing that causes
the friction, he said, is trying to get
something that the Commissioners
don't want TO give us"
Retention of Officers w. C. Allen
and T. r. Talbert at 14th street and
Park roa d was requested Of the

tion presented by j. Clinton Hiatt

In addition to hitting below the belt
and slugging after the bell, the
maulers took to wrestling in the sew
enth round when the county authorities
intervened.
Baum apparently resented remark
passed by Turner at the end of the
sixth round. The former disregarded
the bell and handed Turner two lefts
to the chin and a right to the stom-
ach. At this stage Of the proceed.
ings, Referee Charley Short of Balti-
more stopped the fight, ruling it q
no-contest, but the fans demanded
that the mill be continued. When the
referee allowed them to come back
for the seventh, the fighters resorted
to wrestling as the crowd surged
near the ring. It was here that the
county constables rushed in to pre-
vent a possible riot.

pointed John L. Smith in the six
round semi-fnal, while Joe Brown
