Early Advances Followed by
/ Considerable Selling in
[. Later Transactions.
BY STUART r. WEST.


NEW YORK, December There
was a good deal of stir at intervals
on the stock exchange today, but
again the general price movement
was indecisive. Advances and de-
clines among individual stocks oc-
CURED simultaneously. The buying
side had the better of it early in the
day, realizing sales told more in the
afternoon.
The street was evidently not pre-
pared for the declaration of an extra
dividend of S1.50 on Lehigh Valley.
Many had thought that as a. purely
railroad stock all was being paid that
was likely to be paid. Lehigh ran up
nearly 4 points on the news, later
reacting. Union Pacific. selling ex
the quarterly dividend, was keeping
about even with it's recent market
quotation. Southern Pacific was
bit frmer. Rock Island was already
III from its late top some points, so
that it was prepared for whatever
disappointment there might have been
over the dividend action.
The principal changes occurred IN
The industrial section, among the
stocks which are commonly known
as speciaties Allied Chemical had
very sharp run up. Radio Corporation
Lad seemingly recovered from the
recent pressure of realizing sales and
the stock worked higher. The buying
operation which has been going on for
the last week or more in universal
Pipe and Radiator issues was carried
further. Vivaudou made a new high
3or the year.
In the afternoon Phillips Petroleum
pushed forward again on large trans
actions and there was a sharp up
1urn in Atlantic Refining. Other
members of the oil group were
steady and some of them higher.
The oils were more active in the
buying during the late trading than
any other set of stocks.
General Asphalt resumed its ad-
vance and after Marland had
absorbed n lot of stock at 54 the
price went through that figure. wan
street had an opportunity to reai1ze

The visit of Will Wood, member of Congress
from Indiana, to President Coolidge widely heralded
should be an interesting occasion.
The people of Indiana would be vastly benefited
II they could have photograph record of the con-
versaton and turn it on at every political meeting
in the State from now until November-the real con-
versation, not the later announcements
VIII Mr. Wood, who has the job of electng
Republican Congress, tell the President that he
would like to have the President send Postmaster
General New back home to tell the voters of the
greatness of Senator Watson?
Will he demand that when that other member of
the cabinet, who is almost Indianian, comes on
Labor day, he should bring confession from the
White House that its attitude on farm relief and
the world court was all wrong and that the salvation
OF the Nation depends upon the return of Watson
who fought both these policies
Will Mr. Wood tell the President Watson and
Robinson are telling the people here that the Presi
dent all wet on these measures and that thew
stand for simon pure Republicanism?
Just what Mr. Wood say to the President
about this State and about the prospects of Novem
Der?
BY no stretch of the imagination can there be
any great citation in the Coolidge breast over being
given two such stanch directors to his policies as
Watson and Robinson.
But perhaps he may bring away with him some
wavering word which be twisted and distorted
into an appeal for Watson in his rather dire need of
aid.
For no one knows better than Wood and Watson
that at last Watson is facing real fight for Office
and that unless he can get some semblance of a.
White House shadow to protect him from the pitt
iess light on his record he is quite likely to re-
tire from public life

WANT NEW RATES
ON NIGHT CALLS
Phone Company Petitions
Commission.

Revised schedules on night toll
rates on station to station calls are
sought by the Indiana Bell Tele-
phone Company in a petition on file
today with the public service com
mission.
The petition proposes a long dis
lance rate between and $3.50 in the
evening one-fourth less than the
day rate and between $3.50 p. m. and
4:30 a. m. one half the day rate.
The change would reduce early
even tolls but increase those after
midnight. The petition also asks
permission to reverse charges on
Standardization calls, a privilege
heretofore not allowed. Net result
of the proposed changes would be
a decrease of $1S,204 in annual
revenues, the petition stated.
At present an evening reduced
rate from $3.50 p. m. to midnight is
one-half the day rate and a night
rate from midnight to 4:30 a. m. is
rs per cent less than the day rate.

the somewhat hybrid treatment
characteristic of the older school of

features of this period has been the
