MARKET
IRREGULAR
Nv international News Service

NEW YORK, Aug. 23.-stocxs
were irregular in a dull and In
active market in the early trading
today. The weekend orders were
about evenly divided between buying
and selling, and prices in the early
period were decidedly mixed. Pools
in a few of the speciality stocks re-
sumed the forward movements in
their favorites, with General AS
phalt and Warner Brothers chr
manding top prices.
There were few, II any, important
developments in trade and industry.
The best industrial reports came
from the equipment companies,
which have recently received al ;od
volume of new orders. Northwest
ern railroad companies surveys of
crop conditions in that territory
were uniformly favorable. Call
money renewals were posted at Az
per cent, unchanged from last week.
Speculative interest was largely
confined to a small number of the
outstanding industrial stocks. United
States Steel moved down from Is!
to 149K in the second hour, and
declines of point or two were
recorded for Allied Chemical, Ameri-
can Smelling and a score or more
OF stocks. which featured last weeks
brilliant advance. y
Rails were firm but inactive, with
the best buying in the stocks Of
the Northwestern roads, Great
Northern, Northern Pacific and
Chicago Northwestern. Commodity
markets were steady and foreign
exchange rates slightly lower.

BANK GROUP To
AID PUBLIC
By RICHARD HATTON

That the local chapter of the
American Institute of Banking
means to increase its activities and
Its influence in the community Is
indicated by the announcement to.
day Of the appointment of a COM
mittee to encourage interest in pub
lie affairs and intelligent discussion
OF and participation in such public
activities as would benefit by their
constructive assistance. This COM
mittee will encourage investigation
and discussion along all economi;
and Industrial lines whether these
matters be Of direct interest to
bankers and financiers or merely Of
interest because of their effect
upon the community as a whole.
This committee upon education
and public affairs. is composed Of
]. c. Dulin, jr., of the American
Security and Trust Company, chair
man; c. D. Boyer, Federal-American
National Bank; H. G.. Hoskinson.
Riggs National Rank; Francis G.
Addison, jr., Security Savings and
Commercial Bank; Victor B. Dey.
Der, Second National Bank, and c.
H. Doing, jr., Washington Loan
and Trust Company.
That much may be expected
from this committee in the way
Of constructive activity is indicated
by its personnel. Every member
Is banker who has attained high
place in the financial field as
well as in the work Of the Ameri-
can Institute Of Banking. In adj
tive thought and direct activity
both in the interest of their pro-
fession and the community. !.
This committee, it is stated, will
concern itself with promoting bene-
fetal measures for the advance
ment Of the banks and the COM
munity, with an active an help
ful part in all community civic
movements and in an endeavor
to educate the public at large
along banking lines by means Of
talks to group organizations,
schools and other bodies, in per-
son and by radio, as well as by the
publication of pamphlets and arti-
cIes.
It is felt in banking circles
that much will be accomplished
by this committee and that the
growing 1eeIing OF mutual interest
between the banks and the bank
ing public will be fostered and
strengthened by the program
which it is planned to carry out.
The Washington Chapter of The
American Institute of Banking, at
its last regular meeting, adopted
Blue and Gray as the chapter
colors. The colors were selected
because of the location of this city
with regard to the mason and
Dixon Line"
Prediction is being made that
there will be more than the usually
active consumer demand for com.
modities here this fall This fore
cast is based upon the generally
prosperous local condition and the
fact that considerable buying in
the local market has been delayed
because Of unreasonable weather.
