TRAFFIC FIGURES
NOT RESPONSIBLE
FOR |RREGULAR|TY
Bears Claim HeavineSs of
IndustriaIs Indicates Ad-
justment.
HU limited Press

BIZ United Press
NEW YORK, Jan. 27.-The
freight traffic figures for the
week ended Jan. Is, demonstrated
that the irregularity of the stock
market bore no relation to the cur
rent conditions of business. Car
loadings of 950,045 during that peri
cd were 9,245 over the preceding
week, and 1870 over the cor.
responding week, and 1870 over
the corresponding week of last year.
However, bears insisted that heavi-
ness of the industrials indicated adj
justment to some later shrinkage in
the tremendous turnover of last year
and selling was pushed early among
leaders of this class.
Steel, General Motors. and other
pivotal issues continued under
pressure, but recessions from the
previous close were not important.
Stocks developed good resistance
around noon and aggressive profess
sional efforts to force lower prices
made no Roadway. Although Steel
common was depressed to new low
on the movement at 1874, off Is, this
factor failed to induce important
liquidation, and the whole list dis
played rallying tendencies.
Constructive forces gained con-
fidence from the large supply of
money available. This fostered hopes
regarding an early reduction of the
local rediscount rate.

BIZ NEA SerUice
LYNCHBURG, Va, Jan. Elf
teaching is a trying occupation, Ed
ward Christian Glass, for forty-six
years superintendent of Lynchburg' s
public schools, does not exemplify it.
A brother of United States Senator
Glass, he is the oldest school super
intendent in the United States, prob
ably the oldest in the world. And
as such, after fifty-six years at the
blackboard drilling readin', writin'
and 'rithmetic into the heads of
otherwise interested youngsters, he's
still going strong.
Teacher, what's wombat?" +,
"Who built the natural bridge, teach
er?", Teacher, how many bulldogs
can a lion lick?" and similar class
room trials which discourage many
teachers have lent Mr.. Glass little
appearance Of his IA years.
Teaching has been his vocation all
his life with the exception of three
years spent in the Virginia Legis-
lature. Since he became the super
intendent here in 1879 he has been
behind or active in most of the pub
lie education movements in the Old
Dominion and in many enterprises
not directly associated with educa-
ton.
While his eminent younger brother
is one of Virginia's prides and joys,
Mr.. Glass, in less demonstrative
way, is as highly esteemed. And IN
that local prominence and admira-
ton he continues his work supreme
ly contented.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 81 - The
year 1927 started with wholesale
prices at the lowest level since the
middle of 1924, the Federal Reserve
Board announced today
General wholesale prices were only
AZ per cent above pre-war level de-
spite an advance in the price of
cotton, hogs, grain and -four, the
board said
Industrial production eased up at
the close of 1926, due principally to
seasonal decline, a business survey
fl showed. Retail trade at stores and
mail order houses, however, exceeded
all previous years during the Christ
mas season, according to the board.

CHICAGO, Jan. Eft was the
belief of most operators at the close
yesterday that wheat values were to
work irregularly higher, but with
Liverpool much lower than expected
today, there was more wavering in
expressions as to what the market
is to do Immediately. Wheat opened
unchanged to u lower.
Corn opened unchanged from
Wednesdays closing prices All in
terests in the corn trade would like
to see higher prices, but they admit
that the main drawback is the linn
tied cash demand.
No trend is indicated for oats and
interest is almost nil. Prices were

STEEL EARNINGS
BOLSTER MARKET;
REASSU2E BASES
Gains Melt Like Snow in
Final Ten Minutes on
Exchange.
BY Il. Walter MOcIkler

NEW YORK. Jan. 27-Money held
easy at 4 per cent Wednesday. Sen
timent was bolstered by the unex-
pectedly large earnings OF the Steel
Corporation and the market bases
seemed treasured for a time
In the last ten minutes of the
trading, the structure of the market
gave way again and early gains
melted like snow. Traders who had
put out short lines Tuesday were
inclined to take them in again
Wednesday morning, as the market
appeared to have steadied measur-
ably. Just before the close the whole
market met flood of selling orders,
which indicated quite plainly that a
real bear raiding party was operat-
ing.
Close Impresses
Apparently this raiding group is
aware that the closing bases of the
market are highly important as
shaper of sentiment, inasmuch as
the public gets the net results in it's
morning paper and is more i'm
pressed by the closing bases than
by any display of strength during
the early part of the day.
Meantime the demand for high
grade bonds continues undated in
reflection of the easy money market.
Therefore it is obvious that public
confidence in conditions has not been
impaired to the point which might
have been indicated by the shake
out in the stock market.
Final Drive
During the display of steadiness
in the morning and early afternoon
session it appears as though the
stop-loss area invaded Tuesday
would be safe from attack Wednes-
day. However. this hope proved
fruitless. as the last-minute drive
against prices did serious damage,
and it is highly probable that mar
gin clerks put in another busy over
time period, bringing threatened Gus
toners up to the market in the mar
ket of margins on the more exposed
stocks.

turning to Los Angeles today from

obtained her decree. She was elo-

Plans for the event call for almost
everything imaginable in the way of
outdoor amusement. There is fine
dance floor and music will be furn-
ished by one of the best orchestras in
the district. Admission and all prices
for the various entertainments and for
the fine assortment of picnic dainties
have been cut as low as possible to
make it easy for everyone to attend,
enjoy themselves and at the same time
assist in the raising of the funds
needed.
Nothing but heavy rain will stop
