Constructive Forces at Work
Again Today-High Priced
InduStrialS Lead

New York, Nov. 1.--(AP)-Con-
structive forces we're again at work
in today's stock market which forged
steadily upward under the leader
ship of high priced industrials. Soft
spots cropped out here and there but
they were disrcgarded. Lowering Of
the call money rate from four to
three and one-half per cent stimula-
ted the recovery, which was fea-
turcd by active short covering oper-
ations in number of recently weak
specialties.
Temporary weakness Of the rubber
shares was due to the lowering of
certain tire prices by one Of the
leading manufacturers. Special
strength Of Marine preferred was
associated with reports that the
company would be liquidated as the
result of the adverse court decision
or the proposed recapitalization
plan. Directors of the Brown Shoe
company raised the annual dividend
from 81 to $3.50.
The general rise in prices today
was not associated with any special
developments in the days news, but
was generally regarded as a correc-
ton of temporary Oversold condi-
ton. Speculative opinion is still
sharply divided over the future
trend Of prices, which probably will
depend chiefly upon the course of
trade and .ops within the next few
weeks.
Pivotal industrials. such as United
States Steel common, General Mo-
tors, General Electric and American
Smelling and leading rails, such as
New York Central and c. e. O. took
a prominent part in the upturn.
Wide fluctuations again character
lied the trading in some of the blue
chip issues, Rossia Insurance soar
ing nearly 10 points, while Case
Threshing, Houston Oil, American
Railway Express, du Pont, Warren
Brothers and American Machine and
Foundry all sold five to eight points
above last nights final quotations.
The closing was irregular. Re-
current selling in the sugar group,
American Sugar dropping from IL
to 66 Ia, the years lowest checked
the rise in a good many other in
dustrials in the final hour. Bald
win, Mack Truck, General Asphalt
and Hudson Motors were conspicu-
ously heavy. Various specialties
continued to work substantially
higher, notably National Biscuit,
Otis Elevator and Greene Cananae
copper. Total sales Appropriated
100000 shares.

IL Minot Buildings
Will Be PadlOcked

Minot, N. d., Nov. 1.-(P)-Pad-
locking Of II places in Minot, where
liquor has been sold, will take place
in the near future, as a result of
DEGREES ordered entered by Judge
John B. Sanborn Of St. Paul in fed
eral court, who will soon sign in
functional orders, under which the
marshal's office will proceed to at
tach the padlocks.
In several instances tho places
can be reopened if the owners post
bonds of $1,000 each. Subsequent
violations of the liquor laws in the
same places would make the owners
liable under the bonds as well as
being in contempt of court, it il
said.
The injunctional proceedings were
instituted by the United States dis
trict attorneys office with the idea
in mind Of attempting to lessen the
liquor traffic by making it difficult
to obtain quarters to be use for the
illegal sales Of liquors.

Second Case Started
to Test Legality of
New Dormitory Law

A second suit was filed in Bur-
leigh county district court today to
test the validity of the Schlosser-
Hamilton dormitory law enacted by
the last session of the stat, legisla-
turc to permit the state university
and agricultural college to finance
the erection of domitories.
The case filed today is that Of
George Fl. Wilder Of Grand Forks,
representing the taxpayers, VS.. the
state board Of admins ,ation. A
demurrer Immediately interposed by
the board on the ground that the
complaint did not constitute suffi-
cient cause for action was sustained
by Judge Fred Jansonius and the
case will now go to the supreme
court. 1t is expected that the high
court will act on the c. sc as quickly
as possible.
Meantime work or erecting dormi-
tories is held up pending final de-
cision as to the constitutionality of
tn, law, inasmuch as the sale Of Sc
curities cannot be negotiated until
this point is definitely determined.
A similar case was instituted sew.
eral months ago but was dismissed
by agreement of counsel for both
sides before it reached the supreme
court.

WELFARE OF AGRICULTURAL NORTHWEST
LINKED With RAIL RATE STRUCTURE
Reduction in Differential Be-
tween Rail and Water Rates
on Wheat Shipments Would
BE Of Tremendous Benefit
to Dakota and Minnesota
Farmers, Witness Tells |.
&. c.

Minneapolis, Nov. 1.-(AP)-Wel-
fare of the agricultural northwest
is closely linked with the rail rate
structure from Minneapolis to "the
Niagara frontier" district contiguous
to Buffalo, representative of the
interstate commerce commission was
told t0day by Gust +. Eve. vice
president and general manager of
the Van Duscn Harrington company,
at the grain rate hearing here.
Reduction of from six to seven
cents in the differential in the rail
rates from Minneapolis and cargo
rate from Duluth on coarse grains,
and from seven to eight cents in the
differential between rail and water
on wheat shipments would be of
"trep1endous benefit" to farmers in
North and South Dakota and Minn,-
sofa, who sell their grain to line ele-
vators owned by Minneapolis grain
marketing firms, he said.
Lower Rate From Southwest
cat the present time, Buffalo
mills are using wheat produced in
the southwest, which is shipped to
IuCuI slL q AOWCI rail- IdlG IMAM the
northwest enjoys" he said. "Scme
wheat and coarse grains from the
northwest go east to the Niagara
frontier territory at the pre-e Mt
time through the Duluth terminal,
but, because of high rail rates to the
head Of the lake the movement Of
cargo grain for consumption skere
is relatively small. Most of the
cargo shipments are for export.
Northwest wheat is desired bv
eastern millers because of its high
protein content, and they are willing
to pay premium for it. Although
the lack Of facilities at the line ele.
vators prevent storage Of special
milling wheat to great extent, o.
agents do pay over the "cargo price
for wheat with high protein content,
If this new market were opened to
US by creation of a rate structure
reasonably competitive with an all
water route, it would undoubtedly
be Of great benefit to the entire
northwest"

Presbyterians Plan
Special Meetings

A change in the method of the
midweek meeting has been made in
the Presbyterian church. At a con-
ference last Sunday afternoon, at
which representatives from the
adult, young peoples and high
school groups Of the church were
present, the type Of service for We'd
nesday evenings was discussed.
1.-THE midSweek meeting" said the
Rev. Paul S. Wright, who presided,
SHOULD be designed for the entire
church constituency and not for a
special section of the church. The
program should be such that every
age group would be interested in it."
The Program
The program as outlined by the
committee involves three elements,
worship, instruction and fellowship.
The various age groups of the
church will gather for fellowship at
q potluck supper to be served at
$3.50. Those who find it impossible
to come to the supper are asked to
come at 7:15 and join in the worship
period which Immediately follows.
The various groups will then meet in
separate classes for instruction
which will be based upon the prac-
tical activity aspects Of the church's
work. Tomorrow evening will be de-
voted to the organization Of the mid
week meeting as permanent part
OF the Presbyterian church's pro-
gram for the year.
Meetings Greatly Needed
Heretofore" said Mr.. Wright,
1--WE have acted as though the adult
members of the church received all
the Christian worship and fellow
ship and instruction in the affairs Of
the Kingdom in a single hour of
worship. And we have expected
these elements to be supplied to the
younger groups in the brief session
Of the Sunday school. If we are to
function as an efficient unit in
Christ's great army, it is imperative
that we supplement these by an ade.
quate meeting for the mid-week. The
term Church Night is intended to
designate the character of these
services as adapted to the needs Of
the church as whole, and the re.
Spouse Of the whole church is ex-
pected."

MRS. GRAYS0N
MAY TRY AGAIN
Co.Pilot May Be Thea Rasche,
German Aviatrix, or Clar-
cnce Chamberlin

New York, Nov. 1.-tR)-Mrs.
Frances Wilson Grayson's amphibian
plane, Dawn, may yet fly the Allan
tic this year and Mrs. Grayson's CO.
pilot may be another woman, Thea
Rasche Of Germany.
An alternate possibility that Clar-
ence Chamberlin may sit at the con-
trolls was strengthened today when
the Dawn was groomed for q test
flight by Chamberlain this after
noon.
Thea Rasche made public . tele-
gram she said she sent Mrs. Gray
son at Old Orchard, Maine, Satur-
day, offering to act as the planes
co-pilot At that time failure of the
plane and dissension among the
crew, consisting Of Mrs. Grayson
Brice Goldsborough and William
Stultz, had caused indefinite post
ponement of the flight.
Sends Telegram
"Would you consider" the tele-
gram to Mrs. Grayson read, letting
me fly your Sikorsky amphibian to
Europe with you Am ready to
start right away. Please advise"
In making the telegram public,
Miss Rasche said she had received
no reply to it. When Mrs. Grayson
was reached by telephone here to-
day and appraised of Miss Rasche's
action, she said she had not received
the telegram but would be glad ia
listen to any proposition from any
pilot, made direct"
Miss Rasche learned Of Mrs
Grayson's reply and said she would
send a copy Of her telegram to Mrs
Grayson at Forest Hills.
While this indirect exchange Of
messages was going on it was
learned that the Dawn was being put
in shape for q flight this afternoon
and that Chamberlin was to be u
the controls. Mrs. Grayson wal
asked about this development.
II think very highly Of Clarence
Chamberlin Is . flyer" she said
"You know we had q conference II
Boston and we are to have another
this afternoon. really can't Say
any more now"
Asked if she still had hopes Of
crossing the Atlantic this year, Mrs
Grayson would make no definite
statement but intimated that shs
had in no way surrendered herself
to the idea Of waiting until next
spring.
