HONORS WELL BESTOWED

Cincinnati unionism and, indeed,
all Cincinnati that knows the man,
joins in the congratulations that are
due upon the election of John P.
Frey, editor of the Iron Molders'
Journal, to the presidency Of the
Ohio State Federation of Labor,
without opposition, at the recent con-
vention at Springfield. Mr.. Frey has
made himself one of the outstanding
figures of the union labor movement
by his genius, ability, tremendous
earnestness and unquestioned SINGER
ity and loyalty to all that is best
in union labor ideals. Everywhere he
is recognized as a credit to the union
labor movement. In the State FEEDER
alton he has been an accepted leader
one of foresight and far vision.
In Cincinnati, Mr. Frey is a dele
gate to the Cincinnati Labor Council,
representing his union, and takes a
deep interest in the local problems of
unionism. Everybody listens intent
ly when he takes the floor at council
meetings to present his views as to
trade union matters.
Mr.. Frey's recent series of mastery
articles on the injunction issue, con-
tributed to the labor press through
out the world, have marked him as a
| genius in the analysis Of the more
serious problems of trade organiza-
ton and has revealed him as MAI,
of the highest forensic capability.
The whole world of unionism is talk
ing about these articles.
4! All unionism will be gratifed at
the new honors that have come to
this growing leader, and Cincinnati
members OF the cause are particularly
delighted at the new and deserved
Cincinnati Chronicle.
We might say that John P. Frey is
almost as well known to Hamilton
members of organized labor as he is
to the Cincinnati members, especially
is this true of the local union mold
ers. They all join heartily with the
Cincinnati union members in rejoicing
over Mr.. Frey's selection to head the
state body. Ohio labor is to be con-
graduated upon its wisdom in its Sc.
lection of so wise leader which we
predict John P. Frey will prove to be-

THAT'S WHAT DOES 1T

That to decision of the Califor-
MIA state sureme court debarring the
names of the La Toilette electors
from the ballot in California state
isn't going to bring Calvin Coolidge
single additional vote. On the
other hand, it is going to take many
from him by the people who like to
see fair play. The decision means
that one man in California had the
right to say whether these electors
names should go on the ballot or not.
He told the people who signed the
La Toilette petition they have no say
in the matter as to who goes on the
ticket, that such matters are up to
political conventions and their agents.
Nice how-dy-do! 1t is just such ac-
tions, those of the California supreme
court, that make for new political

NEW YORK. Jan. 4.-Investment
buying Of small lots Of bank stocks
by individual investors has resulted
in unusual activity in this section
Of the investment market. and
prices of leading bank stocks
throughout the country have been
inclined distinctly higher, Mark A.
Noble, Of Noble and Corwin, spe-
cialists in bank stocks, said today.
"The bank stocks occupy a De.
culiar position" said Mr.. Noble,
because high money rates not only
increase the earnings Of the banks,
and therefore place more equity be-
hind each individual share Of stock.
but also tend to stiffen the mar.
ket for all prime. investments, in
which class the bank stocks belong.
IA rise in the loan rate Of com.
mercial money comes when large
demands are made on the banks for
capital to carry on commercial aid
industrial enterprises. When com.
mercial demands fall off, and money
rates ease up, the funds then flew
into the bond market, and the
price of bank stocks declines as
bonds decline"
AS prices for some bank stocks
range well over $1,000 each it ie
logical that they are not traded in
in such large blocks as the low,

NEW YORK. Jan. 4.-Price move
nnents were still uncertain in the
first two hours trading on the
stock exchange today. There was
nothing in the overnight news that
calculated to affect values. Fluctu.
ations in the majority of cases were
narrow, representing the opposing
influences OF additional liquidation
for taxation reasons and repur-
chases Of stock sold some time ago.
The unsettfement created at yes
terday's close by the weakness in
the Pan-American issues was still
visible at the opening. These stocks
were subjected to further heavy
selling, influenced by rumors of an
impending cut in the dividend rate,
due to the steadily declining MeXi-
oan production. Other oils, and, in
fact, the entire industrial list felt
the disturbing influence of this pres
sure, but whatever progress was
made toward lower prices was offset
In the second hour by the appear
J, ance Of buying orders in special is

The shipping stocks were given
noteworthy attention, the news that
many steamship lines had increased

recent spell Of dormancy came back
into their own, advancing briskly,

bought. Consolidated Textile, Con

The second hour witnessed a. mod

lowed by rallying tendencies in other
prominent oil securities, notably the
STANDARD Oils.

during the week ended December %
was regarded as entirely seasonal

The dividend rates paid by the

TEST

That, as in grammar, punctua-
ton is the final test of art in
acting is the assertion of Cecil B.
De Mile.
Says the director general of
Paramount pictures: Just as many
college graduates see choice sala-
ries slip by due to trouble with
periods and commas, SO has
punctuation spacing been the
burial ground for thousand
would-be stars.
I'm always glad when a story
such as Feet Of Clay offers roles
for men like Robert Edeson,
George Fawcett. and Theodore
Roberts men for whom the years
have made second nature the
finish which only comes through
experience.
TAKE Edeson, for instance.
There is a scene in Feet Of Clay
which requires him to open q
door, see his wife listening through
ships hatch to proposal be-
tween man she loves and her
half-sister. make decision and
start toward her.
Lack of punctuation would
ruin that scene for an inept actor.
1t requires registration in a sec
ond's time of one emotion with
quick shift to q second and a
third. Prolonging any part of 1t
hair.breadth would spoil the
total effect.
Young actors succeed in proper

how perfectly played, is useless
unless 1t is correctly keyed with
