SPECIAL TIES GAIN
ON CURB EXCHANGE
Show Resistance to Selling.
Oils More Active and
Work Higher Today.
BY WILLIAM f. HEFFERNAN.

Special Dispatch to Tho star
NEW YORK. September 13,--Spe-
cialties on the Curb Exchange dis
played remarkable resistance to the
selling which made lis appearance
At intervals during todaNs session.
Speculative sentiment had hc2u adj
varsly affected ut the start Of tho
week by the hardening tendency of
call money. and despite the further
increase IL the renewal rate, the ac-
ton of the market indicates traders
had concluded that this was merely
incidental to mid-month require
mcntS.
one Of the outstanding points Of
strength was BanCitalN shares, which
advanced sharply TO the highest since
the stock dividend WAS deducted from
the price. Buying was based on the
belief that share owners were IN line
for another extra distribution.
CelaneZ common moved forward
hrisklv into new high ground, Those
back Of the buying Contended that
the market for the stock had MT
discounted the fun ADVANTAGES the
company is to Gain through the con-
solidation OF its subsidiary with the
Celluleid Co. After the exchange OF
stock is accomplished there re-
mon stock, representing 4 controlling
interest, is to so 10 Cellanez Copper
alton.
General Baking class "A" and
Palmolive were others to reach new
high prices for the year. Mining is
Sues were not as prominent as related
shares on the Stock Exchange. but a
better demand appeared for Bunker
Hill and Sullivan and Noranda Mines.
Oil shares were more active a~d in
clined to work higher, but tie re-
newal of operations in this quarter
could not have been set down to
response to the latest weekly crude
oil production statistics. These dis
closed decrease in domestic output
of more than 1000 daily in the period
covered, but those in close touch with
the oil trade situation were Of the
opinion that a radical change in the
statistical position of the industry
would have to come about before the
oil share market could definitely turn
for the better.

inspectorships. but they are training
the rank and file carefully.
One of the largest insurance COM
panies in the world acquisitions the
services of its most successful sales
men two or three times a week to
train beginners in methods of getting
the name on the dotted line. One of
the largest manufacturers of paint
has fortnight's course which every
salesman is compelled to attend to
learn methods not only of selling paint
in 1000 gallon lots but also in 10-ccnt
containers.
Seeking Statesmen.
Every public utility is seeking men
and methods that will bring retail
sales results. They realize that to sell
current they must make customers
and to make customers they must sell
electrically operated machines and
equipment for office and domestic
use. The forces SO employed in many
cities have been woefully lacking in
all elements of craftsmanship. This
has restricted manufacturers earn
ings and has defeated the purpose of
the utility companies. There are
100000 electrically equipped homes
in this country. That is a big
enough market for most statesmen to
shoot at, but it has been too small
for some of the sales forces on the
firing line.
1t is the general consensus of sales
executives that high pressure" sales
manship is not wanted. Producers
want their customers to stay sold.
1t has been proved abundantly in the
last few years in the real estate and
other fields that when customers fail
to stay sold the boom bursts.

EVERYMAN'S
INVESTMENTS
BY GEORGE T. HUGHES.
The Gary Will.

The Gary Will.
In the will of Judge Gary, made
public the other day, there is a bit
of investment advice that could well
be taken to heart by others than the
heirs of the late chairman of the u. S.
Steel Corporation. The judge earnest
" requested his wife, children and de-
scendants that they invariably de-
cline to invest In any untried or doubt
full securities or property or enter
prise or business"
The important adjective in this adj
monition is "untried." That new UNI
dertaking involves risk is the axiom
the Judge intended to state. From an
investment standpoint, only seasoned
securities are worthy Of attention.
There are no exceptions to this rule.
If it be objected that this test would
have excluded u. S. Steel common
stock when that organization was first
formed, the answer is that at that
time steel was not an investment and
although those who bought it then
and have held it all this time, if there
are any such, profited largely, they
We're specializing.
Because in this one instance the
speculation was successful it does not
follow that the rule is invalidated.
For every winning business venture
is outnumbered 10 to / by the fail
ures and only those can afford to take
the chance of making the right guess
who can also afford to lose.
Promoters of worthless stock have
one stock trick and that is to point out
how many millions would have been
made by any one who had the faith
to put money into Graham Bells tel
cphone or into Henry Ford's automo-
bile when those two inventions were
first conceived. This argument has
been the cause of more losses to I'M
lucky listeners than any other one
bait the vendor of fraudulent secur-
tiles employs.
But the case does not rest only up
on fraudulent offerings, it applies to
new business honestly projected and
even Well-managed The percentage
of failures is so large that the average
investor is sure to lose.

BORhH SCORES RESERVE
BOARD FOR ITS RATE CUT

Senator Borah, Republican, Idaho,
said today that if the Federal Re
serve Board had directed the Re-
serve Bank at Chicago to reduce it's
rediscount rate from to 315 per
cent it had violated at least the in
tent OF the Federal Reserve act.
The Senator recalled that when
that act reached the Senate from
the House there was in it a provision
giving the Reserve Board such au-
thOrity, but the Senate eliminated it
and substituted a clause authorizing
the board to review rates fixed by
the regional boards over the country

MACHINE SALES BETTER.

NEW YORK, September 10 R).-
The machinery and machine tool in
dustry has taken on a better tone and
the sales trend is upward, says Amer
lean Machinist. In Chicago there is
a gain in activity. The market in Gin
cinnati is livelier A gradual rccov-
cry in sales volume is reported from
Cleveland, and indianapolis sees a
better outlook in the number of in
quiries being received. Improved
financial conditions in the South, the
result of higher crop returns, sug-
gests a good Fail trade.
