One proposed law prohibits impor-

HOG VALUES JUMP Is CENTS HIGHER
Matured Swine Reach Top

a CWt.
Hog Prices Day by Day

Low receipts forced a substantial
increase of Csc a cwt. on matured
hogs in the mid-week trading period
at the Indianapolis Livestock Elk
change. Higher prices in other
market centers helped the rise in the
local market. Receipts were esti-
mated at $500 and '73 followers from
the previous session were added to
the total fresh receipts.
Lightweight matured swine COM
manded a price of $'1.S5. The bulk of
the transactions for the morning
were made from S11.75@11.S5. Pigs
showing choice quality were sold at
$11S5.
Hogs Price Scale
Trading was done over the follow
ing scale of prices: heavies and
medium weight material sold at
$11.75; light and light light swine
commanded the top price Of S11.S5;
pigs averaged $11.75@11.S5: smooth
packing sows were $1O.50@11. rough
packing moved at S9.75Q10.25; and
stays were $9@l1.
Low receipts, estimated at 500,
hampered trading in the cattle mar
ket at the start of the mid-week ses-
sion at the exchange. Prices were
fully steady, however, with the re-
cent changes. Heifers were rather
weak and were quoted from S5Q9.25.
Steers held at $6@12.5O. Cows were
In demand and sold from S4Q6.
Choice Lambs Strong
Choice lambs were strong and
prices on this class of material
ranged from $15@15.50. Not many
lambs brought the top price. Sheep
we're steady at s567. The lack of
bovines slowed trading and a definite
price trend was not established. Re
ceipts were estimated at 200.
A medium size run of veals. esti-
mated at 500, was seen in the calf
division of the exchange and prices
were forced higher by an urgent
demand. Best stuff commanded a
price Of $14.50 The bulk of the
sales were made from S13.50Q14.

Bu United Press
NEW YORK, Nov. 25.-Stock ex-
change houses reported after yester-
days close that most of the nee
cistous liquidation overhanging the
market had been cleaned out on the
days drives. This improvement in
technical conditions was reflected in
the considerably improved tone in
the general list at the opening.
Pressure was no longer in evidence
and substantial rallies took place on
the initial transactions In the stocks
which had experienced the severest
reactions. General Motors moved up
15s to 1O9; Chrysler 21a to TIA; Du
Pont to 200; Steel Common a half
to 1881 and u. S. Rubber y to
S7N.
Sentiment was confident that no
increase in the local discount rate
would be authorized this afternoon.
his feeling helped along the re-
&Sovery in the general list which
spread from the motors to other sec
tions of the list in the late morning.
Cast Iron Pipe rallied sensation
ally, coming back to 100 against
yesterdays low of 176. This rally
was helped along by Dow-Jones- an
nouncement that the company had
under-bid French competition for
Detroit municipal contracts.
Pipes recent break was accom-
panied by rumors that w. c. Durant
was liquidating his holdings but
these reports were given little cred
ence in well informed quarters.

BU United Press
CHICAGO, Nov. 25.-Grain futures
closed lower today on the Chicago
Board of Trade.
Persistent selling reduced wheat
prices. Longs and commission

those awaiting declines and some

opinion that recent advances have

Reduced pressure was noted IN
corn. Fluctuations held within mar

FOR SKOR RIDGE
Continued From Page u

this is another example of his double
crossing" Fred Bates Johnson said.
HE and his association last sum-
mer promised cooperation and sup
port when the school levy was
fixed.
However, I believe every mem
Der of the board, and other persons
who know him and who understand
his systems, expected something like
this at the last minute"
1.-The Indiana. Taxpayers Associa-
ton represented by Harry Miesse
promised full support to the school
board in carrying out its building
program" AdClph Emhardt said.
Now they turn the tables and throw
obstacles in the way which actually
stop the 1925-26 program. II the
State tax board holds to the re.
monstrance the old Shortridge site
will not be sold.'
Charles L. Barry urged that the
board adopt resolution previously
prepared, for the sale of the old
Shortridge site, as had been agreed
when the tax levy was fixed. He
said such action would strengthen
the stand of the board against the
remonstrance.
Miesse, however, said that board
members were wrong in considering
the remonstrance a hindrance to the
Shortridge project.
1.-THE association is in favor of
building a new Shortridge," he said.
IAN we want is that the board be
in possession Of certain bids on the
structure before the bond issue is
decided upon, thereby eliminating
excessive expenditures and allow
anceS.

Always Delay

I'VE had counted on the building
for about twelve years" member
of the Shortridge faculty said. Each
time, however, some type or manner
Of delay has presented itself.
This time we were positive that
the building project would be car
ried out as promised and expected
to move into the new building in
September, 1927"

Need Is Urgent

81 think the entire matter should
be fairly presented to members of

we have filed the remonstrance. We

The school has accommodations for
1900 pupils. More than $500 are
attending, with prospects Of an ad-
ditional 800 at the beginning Of the
spring term.
Every available room in the build
ing and four rooms In the Benjamin

classrooms. Caleb Mills Hall is used
as an overflow study hall. Music
classes Of 100 pupils each meet in
one of the basement rooms. although
ventilation and light are not suffi-
cient to care for more than sixty
pupils. Lighting conditions also are
bad for study in Caleb Mills hall.
Board officials said the erection of
the Washington and Jefferson high
schools will not relieve Shortridge
congestion.
These buildings, to be ready about
Jan. /, 1927, will cut down the num-
Der OF coloreG pupils at Shortridge
and the enrolment at Manual, but
will not affect Shortridge, 1t was
said.
The board has approved the pre-
hminary architects drawings on the
new Shortridge School at Thirty
Fourth and Meridian SITS. 1t also
has advertised for bids on the bond
issue for the school. The bids for
the bonds had been advertised for
three weeks and were to close Fri
day.
The board pointed out that be-
cause a new Shortridge was looked
for no repairs, which actually were
needed on the present Shortridge,
had been made in the last twelve
years.

BELGIUM To GET
EASIER DEBT
TERMS
Conference Here Adjourns to
Permit Consultation With
Coolidge

Considerably more lenient terms
will be accorded Belgium in the
settlement of her $3.50, 900, 900 war
debt than were accorded other
debtor nations in the settlements
negotiated to date.
This appeared certain here today
following another session of the
Belgian and American commission
ers, in which 1t Isl understood the
Belgians reported that they could
not agree to the terms as proposed
by the American commission yes
terday.
A high Treasury official declared
that this should not be accepted as
"a. deadlock but that both sides
were very hopeful OF an agree
ment."
The joint conferences were ad-
5ourned today until Tuesday, to
give Secretary OF the Treasury Mel
Ion and Senator Snoot (Rep) of
Utah, tine to go to Plymouth, VT.
where they will make a report on
the negotiations to date and ask
President -Coolidge's approval to
negotiate a settlement with the
Belgians on considerably easier
terms.
To Consult Brussels
During the interim, the BeIgians
will continue cable correspondence
with their government at Brus-
sells, and 1t is expected that when
negotiations are resumed next Tues
day an agreement will be reached.
The Belgian commissioners, after
with their government
and last night, succeed
ed in convincing the American COM
mission, 1t is understood, that the
terms proposed by it were beyond
Belgium's capacity to pay" withr
out seriously endangerinE the fl
nancial and economic stability of
the country.
The American commission did not
feel at liberty to make any ma
terial departure from the British
plan without first OBJ
President Coolidge's views,
and consequently both sides were
agreeable TO an adjournment until
next week.
Experts at Work
Following the conference, the
technical experts OF the two COM
missions went into session. They
were armed with a batch of papers.
documents and figures. It was re-
ported that they had been given a
tentative draft Of settlement plan
and ordered to figure the total
costs, yearly payments. and the
like.
The session of the experts con-
firmed the impression that a final
settlement probably would be speed
ily reached when the commissions
meet again, If the terms are ac-
ceptable both to President Coolidge
and the Brussels government.
An undeniable note of optimism
prevailed among the commissioners
of both nations.
