NEW YORK, Dec. 24.-The market today was quiet but gradually ad- vanced on scattered covering and the lack of any fresh selling. The south ern markets continue very firm and while speculative sentiment here Is still bearish, the lack of pressure from the south prevents any sharp decline in prices. Another cold wave has visited the south, accompanied by some rain, but 50 far insufficient amount to really relieve the southwestern drought. Busi- ness is at a standstill in the afternoon, being almost entirely suspended for the usual holiday celebrations. The first notice day or, January contracts in New York is Friday, December 26. Trading i n the December delivery ceased at noon today, Liverpool fu- lures are due on Friday; January, 13.O6d; March, 13.12d. We wish you all very merry Christmas.-Hubbard Bros. & Go.

BILL FOR DISABLED
|. VETERANS OF WAR
Representative Byrns Would Pro.
vide Medical Care Regardless Of
Disability Origin.

disqualification. medical treatment
and nursing for all honorabIy dis
charged soldiers and navy men Of
the world war who are disabled, re-
gardless of the origin Of their dis
ability, Is provided for In bill in
troduced yesterday by Representative
Joseph w. Byrns, democrat, Of Ten
nessee.
This service Is to be available when
| recommended by any reputable prac-
tic.ng physician. Regarding the ne
cessity for this legislation, Mr.. Byrns
says:
Numerous cases have come to my
attention where ex-service men have
been denied treatment because they
were unable to furnish positive proof
to the Veterans Bureau that their
disability is of service origin. In many
cases these boys were unable to pay
for proper treatment. In my judg-
ment this treatment should be given
whenever practicable in the locality
where the ex-service man lives. There
are now. however, $500 vacant beds
in government owned hospitals which
would be available II required.
Certainly physical reha bilitation is
| rehabilitation and the country's obii-
cation demands this consideration for
those who served under its flag"
Representative Byrns. is the rank
ing democrat on the House appro-
priations committee and thoroughly
| available in government hospitals, as
well as familiar with the appropria-
tions made for other rehabilitation
work.

board and by William Knowles Coop
err, general secretary.
When the campaign is under way

rection of an executive committee
which was named at the meeting and
which will inclule L. H. DeGroot, jr.
chairman; Hugh A. Thrift, John
Poole. w. Wr-Everett and Ernest d

The need for outside cooperation
arises from the fact that to reach
those who need its services most
said Secretary Cooper. the Wash

tional classes, it's wholesome socia
opportunities, its practical religious
work for men. and its unique facili-
cost. 1t must rely upon the public

creased and a total increase OF 35,0Oo
had been registered.
The speaker stressed the vast wealth
owned by the various tribes, and said

velopine into capable business men.

nounced that a marked increase in
membership NJ has been evident since

Escaped Jail Here
To BOrrO,U Money
To Pay His $40 Fine

Charlie Ashton's disappearance
from the District jail several days
ago so completely surprised prison
officials that they could hardly
believe he had disappeared.
Arrested for trivial offense and
fined $40 in Police Court, Charlie
found himself in the uncomfort-
able predicament of being unable
to find friends. who would advance
him the money.
''If 1 only had an hours liberty"
he said, Il know l can get the
money"
He was not given the hour. Jail
officials made "trusty" of him
and his duties took him beyond
the walls of the prison. Then he
took the hour and a little more,
returning without putting police
to the trouble of searching for
him. He brought the cash and was
freed.
