MATCH WITS
WITH HUNTERS FOR LIFE

The African elephant is the exclu-
sive source of ivory used for covering
American-made piano keys. Tusks
are in reality tooth structure-as a
matter of fact. they are the beast s
zine.
The elephant is probably the shrewd-
est and most adaptable of living ami
mails and has no enemies except man
He eats anything that is green and
seems equally at home on the plains
or in the forests and jungles, on the
high mountain slopes or down in
swampy lowlands
The elephants trunk is one of the
most extraordinary organs of nature
1t contains the finest smelling appa-
ratus on earth, and when the prox-
unity of man is suspected the trunk is
raised in the air and carefully turned
in all directions, feeling" for the
man smell in the wind. Once an ele-
phant gets that smell he does one of
two things: He either retreats quietly
and rapidly or charges
Years of experience in matching his
wiles with those of man and his high
powered rife has taught the elepha Mt
that it is safer to remain in the dense
forests. An elephant can move
through these forests with no more
noise than would be made by a mouse,
and the growth in these forests is
frequently so impenetrable the hunter
can make progress only by following
the winding elephant trail

Break in Stocks
Is Held Natural
After Long Rise
BY the Associated Press.

NEW YORK, June 6.-The reaction
in the stock market during the week
was widely regarded as a natural Sc
quence of nearly two months of stead
lily rising prices. Speculation for the
rise had gone to extremes, particular
iy in some Of the public utility and
motor issues, and the sharp recessions
in quoted value served to bring them
more in line with the general market
Operations for the advance were not
entirely abandoned, but were confined
to issues which showed unusually. high
current earnings and held out some
prospect of special dividend develop
ments within the near future. These
included Woofworth, Cushman's Bak-
cry, Coca-C Cola, American Ice, Inter-
national Combustion Engineering, In
ternational Cement and Remington
Typewriter. all of which mounted to
lleI, high levels for the year.

Factor in Boosting
This Group.
BY the Associated Press.

NEW YORK, June 6.-Oils. which
have been tagging behind the rest of
the list, showed temporary outbursts
of strength this week in reflection of
the extension of gasoline price ad
VanceS, reports of record-breaking
gasoline consumption, an increase in
the Associated Oil dividend and
rumors of favorable dividend action
by other companies.
AS offSetting influences were the
establishment of a new high record
for crude oil production last week and
the speculative uneasiness developing
over the annulment of the Elk Hills

NEW YORK, June 6.-Oil, tire and

Most of the oils went up under the
the stimulus of the 25-cent barrel
raise in Pennsylvania crude prices.
Texas Company above 40. allowing
for the dividend which has just come
off the price, was selling at a new
high. Pacific Oil was active at a
fractional advance. Phillips Petrol
cum rose over a point and Produc-
ers and Refiners a point. Standard
Oil of California gained a like
amount, and Standard of New Jersey
was up over a half point. Pure Oil
was active and strong, getting up
around 80, and interest was revived
in Barndale.
Fisk Tire Scars.
Chandler went up partly on the
recent Improvement which has oc-
Cured in the company's business
and partly because the stock was
looked upon as being behind the rest
of the market for the motor shares.
Moon was again very active at new
tops. Pierce Arrow and the new

previous records.
able the stock selling at 10 after hav-
ing closed on Friday at 1644. It has
long been known that the financial
position of the company is much i'm

carried along, but more moderately.

ferred.
A fresh squirt occurred in ChiidS
Company shares and it appeared that
the interests identified with the mar
ket for this speciality had not aban.
doned their operations for the rise.
The buying in Childs Co. has been
besed upon the favorable earnings and
expectations based on current expan.
sion in the business
Marland Oil went along moderately
with the other oil shares and was in
t1uenced particularly by the bullish
statement accredited to the head of
the company. MarlandS light oil pro-
duction he said, was about 10000 bar
rels day less than on June l year
ago, with demand much greater and
stocks of gasoline are smaller with
consumption showing a very big in
crease.
Selling was checked in French
francs, and there was some recovery.
But it was slight in comparison with
the break since the start of the week.
