Loco. Merger?

Another report in circulation was
that Lima, Baldwin and American
Locomotive were planning a three
cornered merger. The fact that this
report gathered some Roadway would
indicate that somebody interested in
the long side of Baldwin was also
interested in seeing that the story
got around. Such combination
would include virtually all of the
locomotive building industry in this
country and as unit would form
such powerful opposition that any
newcomer into the field would be
outclassed before they started. A
combination of this kind would very
likely run afoul of the Sherman act
before it proceeded very far. There
has been absolutely nothing to con-
firm the idea of such a merger ex-
cepting the stock market gossip.

LISTS MODERATE
RALLY BASED ON
SHORT COVERING
Baldwin Slightly Off With
Most Stocks on Up
side.
BY +. Walter MOclIler

NEW YORK, Nov. 23.-BaldWln
eased down a trife Monday. al
though it did not lose one whit of
its strength. The rest Of the list,
however, was inclined to move
slightly higher on covering opera
tions. Call money continued steady
at Az per cent with a substantial
amount unloaned at the close, ac-
cording to the official statement
made by the stock exchange money
desk.
The moderate rally has been based
largely upon short covering. but it
is perhaps significant that this up
turn has not brought in any new
selling.
No Definite Trend
Opinion is growing in the street
to a point where no very wide
swings are anticipated. AS a matter
of fact, much of the comparative
dullness of this market is due to lack
of definite trend one way or the
other. This cuts down the activity
of the smaller trader who operates
for turn. In the mass, this small
traders account is a valuable asset
to the market as the average small
trader>ducks in and out of the mar
ket so often that the effects of his
operations are magnified several
times.
Despite the fact that Baldwin
quoted down for the day. the sit
~dation in this issue continued as
the most interesting topic of the
day. Reports that Baldwin was
cornered were banded around in the
market. Naturally this was hard to
confirm.
Hard TO Prove
Just so long as there is plenty OF
stock available i'm the loan crowd
and shorts can get Accommodations, it
would be hard 70 prove the existance
of an actual corner. Lack of such
proof would not make it any easier
for trapped shorts. however: Other
reports which have received consid
cradle credence since the first stage
of the upswing. concern the sale of
the company's Philadelphia property
This sale has been denied more than
once in responsible quarters, but the
Street is convinced that the final
cohsummation of the deal, is only a
matter of time.
According to reports which seem
to bear the greatest appearance of
pro liability the price set for the
property is high enough to guarantee
good stiff extra dividend for Bald
win stockholders, an extra which
would more than make up to share
holders for the loss of the property
concerned.

cough remedy in his several New Tork
stores like Adarnson's Botanic Cough
Balsam. Most cough syrups are easily
and quickly prepared. But to put to-
gether properly, according to the famous
Adamson prescription, the well-known
cough destroying ingredients found in this
famous sure prescription would take five
hours. That would make the price pro-
hibitive. For this reason, and the supe-
rior curative herbs Of nature found in 1t,
Adamson's Cough Balsam is not to be
compared with ordinary cough syrups.
But here is why you can obtain this
never failing cough balsam for only So
cents at any good drug store. Large

Judge Cleaves Talks
To Gardiner Rotary

Judge Benjamin f. Cleaves of
Portland was the speaker and guest
OF honor at the regular meeting Of
the Gardiner Rotary Club at. the
Johnson House, Wednesday noon.
He took as his topic, Business Con-
ditions of the Present Day as Com
pared with those of Previous Times"
pointing out the two classes into
which business was divided, namely,
voluntary and involuntary. The VOL
untary business, such as large man
ufacturing concerns and railroads
public utilities he showed to be max
ing decided growth toward better
working conditions. In former years,
no friendship or interest existed be-
tween employers and employees, 9TH
er than that of common machinery,
but today, said Judge Cleaves, Ia
Dor is being allowed and assisted to
buy stock in the concerns and to
become part owners. thereby in
creasing their interest in the well
fare of the company.
The involuntary business also
shows great improvement. This is
brought about by the enlightenment
of the people who bring to the Trade
commissions attention any faulty
dealings which the concern may
have. At the present time it is very
rare that the commission has trou-
BILE in correcting the faults. He
told of how in former years the
large concerns like the Hollings-
worth and Whitney Co., the Great
Northern Paper Co. and others in
employing their men for the woods
would go to the saloons in Boston
and New York, hire them in an in
toxicated condition., and that they
lived hardly better than the horses
while in the woods, but that now
adays. thanks to national prohibi-
ton, these same companies were hir-
ing better class of men, that the
lumber camps were not three-room-
ed affairs. and conditions were
greatly improved along sanitary
lines.
1t was voted to pay the expenses
of q leader to conduct group of
boys who are to attend the Boys
Conference Ito be held at Bangor

the sum of SO to the Federated
Health drive, which takes care of

nurse.

gusta Rotary Club.

fiscal year would be at least $780,
100000 more than $100,000,000 above
President Coolidge's expectations.
Senator Simmons, of North Caro-
lima, the Democrats tax spokesman
In the senate, said in statement
that Gamers argument in support
of his bill was Every sound" but ne
announced that If 1t should reach
, the senate he would propose amend
ments further reducing the rates on
small individual incomes and a
slight" reduction in tobacco taxes.
He estimated his amendments would
cut $20,000,000 from small individ-

tobacco taxes.
1.-THE estimated surplus In the
treasury is sufficient and more than
sufficient" the senator said, "to
make these reductions and there IS
no reason, except partisan one,
why a reduction should not be made
now"
In the house today the revenue
question was touched on during de-
bate on a supply bill by Chairman
Madden of the appropriations COM
mittee. who asserted he was in ia
vor of the presidents proposal for
a tax credit and also a tax reduction
| measure. He indicated, however, he
would not support the Democratic
proposal.
! Representative La Guardia. Re-
publican, New York, said he thought
the treasury surplus should be ap-
piled to reduction Of the public
debt.
As members of the house took
stock today of the situation, there
! was an apparent feeling that the
presidents plan for a tax credit
! could not muster a majority in both
houses, and this led number of the
ways and means committee members
to predict there probably would be
no tax legislation at this session.
If deadlock should develop ana
all tax proposals are buried, it was
! pointed out that existing laws, pro-

surplus to reduction of the public
debt. t~g
Besides the Democratic bill the
house received another tax measure.
1t would eliminate a five dollar tax
which the present revenue law will
impose on American Legion MEM

publican, New Jersey, sponsored the
bill at the request of the Legion.
