EVERYMAN'S
INVESTMENTS
BY GEORGE T. HUGHES.
Motor Trucks and Railroads.

THE Secretary of Agriculture con
tributes some illuminating statistics to
the discussion of the effect OF motor
truck competition upon the railroads.
This is a subject of great importance
m holders of railroad securities. There
is no disputing the serious nature of
the competition for passenger traffic
between the railroads and the auto
mobile. but the situation as to the
carving of freight rests on a differ
ent basis.
Secretary Jardine finds that there is
no prospect of the railroads being
superceded by the motor truck as
freight carriers except over very short
distances. In support of this PROPOSE
tion he reciteS that in Connecticut 40
per cent of motor truck tonnage is
moved less than 10 miles and nearly
70 per cent less than 80 miles. In
California % per cent is hauled less
than 10 miles and so per cent less
than 80 miles. while the tonnage haul
ed more than 70 miles is less than 90
per cent. In Cook County, H.. "a per
cent of the movement is less than 10
miles. 70 per cent less than 80 miles
and only about per cent moves more
than 100 miles.
According TO the Secretary motor
truck operators have found that the
charge comparable with railroad rates
These conclusions agree with the story
told by the Car-loading records, which
for some time now have been at un-
precedented totals. 1t may be regarded
as established for the present at least
that the railroads will still continue
TO perform an essential public service
as freight carriers over longer dis
tances and that investors in railway
stocks and bonds may leave out of
consideration the supposed threat of
the motor truck to the safety of their
holdings.
Remember that this conclusion is
general one and that there may be
Individual roads which will suffer from
unrestricted motor truck competition.
These, however, are exceptions and
may easily be picked out from the
rest by the result upon earnings.

NEW CURB DESIRED
IN GRAIN TRADING
Farmers Would Check Wild
Speculation Which Cuts
Down Wheat Prices.
BY j. C. ROYLE
al Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, June 24.-The grain
markets of the country are giving re-
neWed attention to proposed reorgani-
cations tending to curb wild specula-
ton. But it has been pretty definitely
settled now that the Chicago Board of
Trade will make no radical changes
at present, in its method of operating.
Many influential members of the board
feel that 1t is better to allow the threat
of some Governmental action to act as
a restraining influence.
The handling of the grain market
at present is a problem closely af
fecting every American citizen. The
Winter wheat crop now is moving
steadily to market. The prices the
farmers receive for 1t and for the
Spring wheat which will be sold later
have big bearing on the purchasing
power of the country at large.
When huge quantities of wheat are
moving to market, it usually has a
depressing effect on prices for that
commodity.
The wheat farmer is seldom inclined
to take advantage of opportunities to
insure his returns through dealing in
grain futures. That is. he does not go
into the market when prices are high
and hedge against his grain crop so
that he would be sure of a good re-
turn. Then when the big selling move
ment comes the large visible supplies
OF wheat tend to make the market
easier and lower.
Manipulation Is Scored
The farmer not only does not follow
the above procedure but he is inclined
in many cases to resent others doing
so. Should another period of wide
price fluctuations such as occurred
los tyNf., 4
is likely the Chicago Board of Trade
might invoke some of the legislatory
methods suggested.
Among these is a proposal by Sena-
tor Capper of Kansas, that short sell
ling be abolished. He believes this
would make for a more stable market
Members of the board assert short sell
ling is an essential factor since il per-
mits exporters and millers TO make
contracts for future deliveries when
there are no hedging sales. They con
tend If 1t were not for short sales
price fluctuations would be very viol-
ent and buyers would have difficulty
in filling their contracts.
Wild Reports Condemned.
Another suggestion is for stricter
supervision of news tending to infiu-
ence trade. At present variety of
agencies flood the board with news
and rumors of all kinds and traders
have become very sensitive to such
reports. Some traders say that even
the Government crop reports are mis-
leading.
1t has been suggested that the
Board of Trade set a limit on the
daily fluctuations of grain prices. the
idea being that if trade were confined
within certain limits there would not
incentive n h
cause wheat to fiuctuate 3 cents a
bushel or over in a single day. 1t is
also suggested that larger traders be
compelled to pay the same margins
as the small dealers.

BOGUE SCHOOL
PREPARES FOR
SUMMER RUSH
Students Come From Far
Away Seeking Cure for
Stammering.

At this season of the year, when
other schools are preparing to end
their years activities, the Bogue In
stitute for Stammerers in Indianapo-
lis begins preparations for the in
struction of an increased number of
students.
The start of the usual school vaca.
ton period is always the beginning
of a larger enrolment of students at
the Bogue Institute, according to
Benjamin y. Bogue, who has been
head of the school for twenty-four
years.
From all parts Of the country par
ents send their children to the Bogue
Institute. where, by the famous
Bogue unit method of training, they
learn to overcome the habit Of STAN
mering. Anticipating the increase in
the number of students, the Bogue
staff makes preparations for the
summer activities of the school by
planning picnics in public parks. ex-
cursions to the amusement centers
of Indianapolis, swimming parties
which prove especially attractive to
the boy students of the insrituts,
and other supervised recreation that
helps to keep the students physically
fit during the period of their summer
stay at the Bogue Institute.
There is usually an increase in the
number of adult students at the In
stitute during the vacation months,
according to Bogue, and this sea-
sons advance enrollments show a
goodly number of grown-up students
desirious of taking advantage Of the
Bogue instruction during their vaca-
ton periods.
The Bogue Institute for Siam
merers is known all over America
and in many foreign lands. Students
have come to Indianapolis for re-
lief from the afflicion of stammer-
ing from all parts of the United
States and Canada and from other
countries. One student of the Bogue
Institute travelled 5000 miles to
reach Indianapolis.

IS SAID
TO BE CAUSE
OF DISEASES
Adjustments Bring Relief to
Many, Says Chiro-
practor.

The discomfort experienced by
every woman who has worn a hat
that is too small, or shoes that pinch
the feet, is only an example Of the
discomfort that the entire nervous
system undergoes when the nerves
are subjected to pressure from the
spinal verteebrae.
The spine Is a bony case made up
of many sections that form a pro-
tective covering over the spinal cord.
If a section of this bone cover is
injured or displaced. it presses
against the sensitive nerves Of the
spine and the nerve irritates the en-
tire system so that one suffers with
out realizing what has caused the
suffering.
It is the business of the chiro-
practor to adjust these spinal verte-
bra so that the pressure on the
spinal cord is removed, and the
nerve irritation relieved. E. NJ.
Ryan, D. c. and M. c.. the pioneer
chiropractor of Fountain Square, has
had his offices at 1861 Virginia
Ave. for many years, and the salts
factory results enjoyed by patients
who have taken his treatment have
built up a large practice for him.
"Those who have tried chiro-
practic treatments and found how
satisfactory they are when it comes
to restoring and keeping the system
In a normal state of health need
not be told what chiropractor can
do for Them" DR.. Ryan said.
but there are many who do not
understand that chiropractic treat

medicine to remove the symptoms Of
a disease as long as the cause of
the symptoms remains. For the
