DEPEW, so, ASKS RELIEF
FROM CARES OF BUSINESS
Wife, However, Explains That
Court Petition Does Not Mean
Husband Is Retiring.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK. June 6.-Channcey
M Depew has arrived at the age
of ninety years and now desires to
be relieved of all business cares and
responsibilities"
This statement was included yes
terday in a petition filed by the
&ermer senator's attorneys in sur
EaSate court, asking that Mr.. De-
pew be relieved of a trusteeship he
has administered for twenty-six
years.
For several days Mr.. Depew has
been kept away from his business
Offices by a sore throat.
Despite the language of Mr.. De-
pew's petition, Mrs. Depew denied
tonight that her husband was re
tiring.''
MIR. Depew will be back at his
office on Monday" she said. The
application in the surrogate's court
is merely a personal matter and has
nothing to do with Mr.. Depews other
activities"
1t was also announced yesterday
that Mr. Depew would not attend the
Republican national convention In
Cleveland, to which he is delegate.
This will be the first Republican con-
yention he has missed since 1883:

BATHING GIRL REVUES
AROUSE WOMEN'S IRE.
Beauty Contests Also Raped as
'Immodest" in General Fed
Grafton Resolutions.
$10,o0O,oo0 FOR PARLEYS
Women's Expenditures Since Jan
uary Are Cited.

BY the Associated Press.
LOS ANGELES, Calf, June g.
Bathing girl revues and beauty con-
tests were expected to arrest atten-
tion of delegates at today's session of
the seventeenth biennial convention
of the General Federation of Wom-
ems Clubs long enough, at least, to
permit adoption of resolutions de-
ploring such "immodest displays of
physical charm"
According to Mrs. Clayton D. Lee,
president of the New Jersey Fedora
ton of Women's Clubs, sponsoring
the bathing girl protest, the bathing
beauty type of girlhood is not repre-
sentative Of the best, and contests
emphasizing beauty of form ARE
creating false standards of value and
have a distinct tendency to lower re-
spect for womanhood."
Education, home economics and con-
servation of natural resources were
the chief topics set for discussion to-
day.
Women Spend $I0.OOO.O0O.
Woman delegates to conventions in
the United States have spent since
January, 1924, more than s10,000,O0O,
according to Ida Clyde Clark. New
York, magazine editor and president
of womans news service, in an ad
dress last night.
Miss Clark cited the estimated ex-
penditure in denial of the repeated
cry that women are not economically
independent and that men will not
contribute to their purely feminine
causes"
An address by Rupert Hughes yes
terday left the 5000 delegates and
visitors in a state OF confusion anil
bewilderment' He suggested that a
woman's place was in the home, not
travelling around the country, and re-
garded the federation's idea of CEN
SorShip as very faulty.
Censorship is one of the greatest
evils of modern times" he said. "Hor-
ribly moral people are really sacrile-
gious.' Mr.. Hughes stated that IF
these fault-finding people did believe
in the Almighty, why not let God
take care of these things"

and silver are indicated by prelimin-
ary statistics for January Average
daily production of petroleum in Cal
ifornia was As per cent less in
January, 1924, than in December,
1923, and 21 per cent less than in
the peak month of September, 1923.
Following this decline in production,
which has materially reduced the
rate of increase of storage stocks,
prices of petroleum were advanced
from $1.01 to $1.40 per barrel (oil
of 35 degrees gravity and above) on
February 5th. In October, 1928,
such oil sold for rs cents per barrel.
The number and value of building
permits issued in 20 principal cities
of the district during January, 1924,
was seasonally large, exceeding the
number and value of permits issued
during January, 1928, by 1876 and
27O per cent, respectively. The en-
ployment situation may be character
lied as normal, with considerable
unemployment among workers in
those industries which usually oper-
ate at reduced rate, if at all, dur
ing the winter.
Normal growth of business activ-
ity, both as compared with one month
ago and one year ago, is indicated
by the amount of checks drawn
against accounts at banks (bank
debits) in 20 cities of the district
during January. Gains of 12 per
cent as compared with December,
1923, and of 6.8 per cent as com
pared with January, 1923, were re-
ported. Retail trade has been
seasonally active in most sections
of the district, at levels slightly
above those of a year ago. In the
wholesale trade some lines were
active and others quiet during
January, but in general the volume
of goods sold was greater than one
year ago.
The general trend of prices of the
principal products of the district has
been upward. Advances and declines
in prices of crops still being market
ed and in prices of livestock have
been evenly distributed Prices of
the industrial metals, copper, lead,
and zinc, rose appreciably during the
latter part of January and the early
weeks of February Lumber prices
have remained steady at previous
levels.

BUSINESS CONDITIONS
SHOW IMPROVEMENT
IN RESERVE DISTRICT

Production and distribution of
goods in the Twelfth District con-
tinued evenly at high levels during
January, 1924, accompanied by furth-
er improvement in the already strong
banking position. Reporting member
banks in seven principal cities have
increased their loans slightly in re-
sponse to the credit requirements of
customers, while at the same time
reducing their own borrowings from
the Federal Reserve Bank.
All member banks, both city and
country, were borrowing $40,711,000
from the Federal Reserve Bank on
February 13, 1924, compared with
total borrowings of $45,296,O00 on
January 10th. Since the holiday
peak of December 26th such borrow
ings have declined $24,244,000 or 81
per cent A similar decline was ex-
perienced year ago, but it amounted
to only $2,826,000 or per. cent. De-
post and Federal Reserve note Liza
bilities of the Reserve Bank were
less by approximately $7,000,000 on
February 18th than on January 18th,
total reserves increased $12,000,000
during the four week period, and the
reserve ratio of the bank rose from
TIT to 82.7 the latter figure being
the highest reached since the
Armistice.
Industrial production has been
maintained at high levels. Lumber
mills of the district cut IL per cent
more lumber during January, 1924,
than during January, 1923. Both
shipments and orders received ex-
ceeded in amount lumber cut during
the month, laying the foundation for
a normal seasonal increase in output
during the spring Production of the
principal metals of the district (gold,
silver, copper, lead, and zinc) has
continued large in volume, although
slight declines in output of copper
