Safeguards Are Reared

Second-W1deSprea criticism OF
enforcement of the prohibition laws
Mas caused the commission to take
Hognizance of the fact that If en-
prcement falls down under civil
Service, it will have to share in the
blame.
Third-Charges of graft and cor
ruption among prohibition workers
in the past are causing the commits
. sion to safeguard itself against such
charges cropping up In the future.
Not only are uniform questions
being prepared for use In oral ex-
aminations over the country, but the
questions are being tried out and
the questioners are going to school
at the civil service offices this week
and next.
DR.. L. j. O'Rourke, director of re-
search, is the teacher. Pupils are
examining officials of the main office
and the district Offices from coast
to coast.
Questioning Thorough
First the applicants for the lower
salaried jobs we're given written ex-
aminations. Next all will be SUBJ
mitted to oral tests. These will be
followed by character examinations.
Those who survive all these previous
tests will be finger printed, to see
that no ex-convicts are among the
prohibition employees selected.
Scope of the oral examination
questions covers everything from
personal characteristics and address
to adaptability, keenness, quickness
of understanding, observation, judg-
ment and discretion.
AS one attendant at the examina-
ton said today: "If a man passes
this examination he'll know some
thing about prohibition and it will
not be our fault if he doesn't make
a good prohibition employe and en-
force the law"

'LOW-PR|CED RAILS
II MARKET LEADERS
Wabash, Western Maryland

ing Has Setback.
BY The Associated Press.


NEW YORK, February 5.-Re-
newed buying of the low-priced rail.
road shares featured the opening of
today's stock market. Initial gains of
to 1la points were recorded by
Wabash. Western Maryland and Sea-
board Air Line. Wheeling and Lake
ETic common quickly fell back ga
points in reflection of the announce
ment that steps would be taken 20
authorize the issuance of additional
common stock. Houston Oil, Dupont
and A. NJ. Byers showed large open
ing gains, the last named crossing 81
&c new peak.
Despite the efforts being made to
relieve the technical corner" in
Wheeling and Lake Erie common.
speculative enthusiasm for the merger
rails continued at fever pitch. Wa
bash common and preferred 4 stock
touched the highest level in years,
while Lehigh Valley, Gulf, Mobile and
Northern, Pere Marquette, Baltimore
& Ohio. Texas & Pacific and Norfolk
Southern all sold one to three points
higher.
Accumulation of the railroad equip:
ment shares was based on the belief
that large railroad orders and substan-
tally higher earnings We're in prospect
for the leading companies. Lima Lo-
connective showed special strength de-
spite denial of reports that the Amer.
can Brown Boveri Corporation was
negotiating for that company.
Houston quickly extended it's gain
to nearly five points. and was followed
into new high ground by Barnsdall A,
r. II. Macy and several others.
Foreign exchanges opened steady,

Speculation in Rail Stocks
Diverts Interest From

prices were a little steadier today, but
the market was still under the infiu-
ence Of the record breaking volume
of new offerings during the week, to-
falling around 100000, 900 with an
other largo amount to come next week.
Interest in bonds suffered today from
the attention devoted to the wild spec
ulation in railroad stocks. In the pres
ent state of the market there are only
one or two railroad bonds with con-
version features that cause them TO
move sympathetically with their re-
spective stock. One of these is Erie
convertible I'D" Is, which duplicated
the record high established on Friday.
New Haven convertible IS OF I94S
held their gain of the week, but the
conversion price is par, so that New
Haven stock has still a long way to
go before making the privilege of
value. Erie AZ IS. on which the con-
version option has expired, ran up
a point. international Great Northern
adjustments were fractionally higher,
but otherwise junior railway bonds
did little.
In the high group New York Cen
trail 31hs We're up half point. Hi
nois Central 4Ms, on the other hand'
sold below 81 again, subsequently
rallying.
Foreign issues were irregular. In
the main. however, there was a bet
ter tone than yesterday. French, Bel
gian, Italian, Japanese and Brazilian
obligations all met support around
the closing prices of Friday. Greek

issue. There was a good demand for
Copenhagen 51zs across par.
Among domestic industrials oil
bonds we're again firm, particularly

about fare increases. The 1926 state
