Features Of Market.
Among the features of the day were
the heavy trading at advancing

stock into which they are convertible.

the bonds sold below 96. There was
nothing significant of any change in

simply the usual course following on
the expiration of a syndicate agree

Mayor 10 Ignore Aviation Field
 M Annual Message 10 Council
Chief Executive Expected to Drop Subject-May Pay Respects to Mem bers of c. o. P.

The aviation field project which found little favor when 1t came be- fore the board of finance and tax ation last year will be ignored by Mayor A. M. Paonessa in his an nual message to the common council this year, 1t is understood.
 For several years there had been talk of establishing such field here, but the mayor was the first to bring the matter before the common council, submitting & recommenda- lion In his last annual message. The finance boards unwillingness 10 ap- propriate money for a flying field was based on the claim that the need Is remote. and upon the pos- sbility of legislation by the state that would assist cities In establish ing municipal flying fields.
 The mayors message will be pre- sented to the common council Wed nesday night. II is expected that the document will be Of greater length than in the past as the mayor has a number of important policies to outline this year.
 In view of the recent political dis cussion concerning common council committees hinged upon the ap- pointment of standing committees with none but republican members. it is believed that the mayor will de- vote part of his message 10 an arraignment of those council mem bers who, in his opinion, play poll tics. The mayor has at various times expressed himself as thankful that there are some members of the council who vote ependently. His failure to place all members in the same catgory and his recent state- lrents relative to the present situa- lion. lead political followers to be- linve that he regards the matter as of sufficient importance to warrant placing 1t in the annual message.
 Mayor Paonessa's statement of last year contained recommendations for 8 waiting station in the center of the town. A committee of the common council investigated, but recommended that nothing be done. Mayor Paonessa expressed himself as dispeased with the committed E report and it will he surprising If Wednesday evenings message does not contain a somewhat similar recommendation.
 The annual message, discussing as 1t does the accomplishments of tho preceding year as well as the may. or's outline for the current year, k expected to touch on zoning, thf municipal swimming pool, building ordinances. the proposed new Belvi. Iore fire station, city developments etc.
