CITIES SELF-RULE
DECLARED GROWING
Richie Tells Institute Prog
ress of Zoning Powers In
diCates Drift.

By the Associated Press.
CHARLOTTESVILLE. Va. Angus,
IA strong drift toward a larger
and larger measure of self govern
ment and self determination for the
American city in the next few years
was forecast today by Gov. Albert
c. Richie of Maryland. speaking
before the Institute of Public Affairs
at the University of Virginia. The
various home rule movements and a
liberalizing tendency in legal deci-
sionS. such. for instance, as the
marked progress in zoninc powers
are already working that way. he
said.
Pointing out that the most vital
phase of cotemporary American his
tory is the amazing growth of the
cities. which now embrace almost
GO per cent of the population, Gov
Richie declared that the city is now
more than mere corporate crea-
ture of the Legislature of the state.
MY proposition is" he said, that
the ma jor political problems of the
future revolve around the cities and
urban life. and that the cities must
be heard and perhaps must lead in
solving them, Soon, I believe we
will conceive of our cities not merely
as corporate entities with hard and
fast charters and bylaws emanating
from without, but as political en-
titles with the right to exercise such
rights without external conflict
Self-Governing Powers.
And, indeed. In respect to the
ever broadening influence which the
city is having upon American poll
tics, believe that not only the future
- tot -nt.t1S NJ h1Yt hn
future of American democracy as
we'll, involves charging the political
self governing powers OF our cities.
If this sounds a bit revolutionary, I
answer that an urban democracy will
not be politically sterile and indif-
ferent as it is now in too many
cities"
Gov. Richie said that fascism.
sovietism and syndicalism are city
bred and born of city conditions.
illustrating that the problems of de-
mocracy in a city are unique and
peculiar to urban life. He pointed
out that the urbanites and ruralites
are becoming class conscious; that the
people of the cities are becoming re-
sentful and rebellious at rural inter-,
ference; and that the conflict goes
deeper than is generally realized and
has obvious dangers.
ut probably explains in part that
sort of social antagonism and bitter
ness that manifests itself in such
movement as the Ku Klux Klan or
Volsteadism. or fundamentalism. and
that underlies the various phases OF
such religious and racial conflicts and
intollerances as unhappily still exist

Harding and Coolidge had declared
the existing court to be just such
court as their predecessors had urged
the other nations to create.
In view of this the speaker said
that the United States is under pro-
found moral obligation to do all in its
power to sustain and develop the
court.
Discussing the five reservations

member of the court, which the Sen
ate on January q. 1926, voted to sub

that 40 of the nations which are now
members met in Geneva last Septem-
Der, and after almost a month of dis
cussion, agreed upon answers which
should be sent to our Government with
respect to the Senate reservations.

CORN PRICE CLIMBS

Reports of Black Rust Damage
Garry Wheat Values Higher in
Today's Dealings.

By the Associated Press
CHICAGO. August 11.--Reports of
increasing black rust damage to do
mestic Spring wheat carried wheat
prices upward fast early today. At
the same time corn and oats advanced
to new high-price records for the sea-
son, the Government crop report ap-
parently indicating future heavy aban-
donment Of corn acreage. Opening at
u off to y up. wheat later showed
gain Of about 3 cents. Corn started "
to 1 " down. sagged a little more and
then jumped rapidly. Provisions av-
eraged lower.
Black rust crop damage advices
from North Dakota today were given
special attention, and in particular
word that south from Minot early
wheat is damaged from so per cent to
almost total. Some fields were re-
ported as being in such bad condition
from rust that they will not pay to
cut. These reports, together with
samples shown here today from
Raleigh County. N. OAK. upset belief
that rust damage in North Dakota is
confined to the Red River Valley and
territory adjoining.
In connection with official comment
that there is much corn acreage which
10 50 ldle Iiidt only an unusually laLe
Fall will prevent considerably more
than usual abandonment Of corn
acreage. leading unofficial authorities
here asserted that frost must hold off
until November / if the whole acreage
included in the Government estimate
Is to mature. 1t was also contended
that there are several million acres
OF corn now so small and late that
frost before the middle of October
would be destructive.

EVERYMAN'S

Smaller Return for Security.
ny GEORGE T. HUGHES.


Continuing the discussion or inc

~ he made concerns the return on
Zach Ordinarily the bondholder is
willing to take a smaller income be-
cause of the greater security he en-
iovs over the stockholder. He knows
that interest on his bonds will be met
whether there are any dividends for
the stockholders or not. For this
nrioritv of claim he accepts a lower
Weld. The market reflects this state
of affairs in the comparative quota
tons.
Stocks sell on smaller income basis
than the bonds. For example, take
the case of the Atchison, Topeka &
Santa. Fe Railroad, perhaps the most
prosperous railroad in America. All
of its bonds sell in the present mar
ket TO Weld less than per cent, and
some of them less than Az per cent.
The common stock, on the other hand,
returns better than 5 per cent, as
suming that the extra dividend now
being paid is continued, as it is com
monty understood it will be. This is
the normal condition.
There comes a time, however, al
ways after prolonged advance III
the stock market, when this order Is
reversed; that is. when the bond re
turns a larger yield than the stock
Sometimes this Is due to the expecta
ton of higher dividend on the stock
and sometimes it Is simply result
of speculative excuses. Whenever
it happens and for whatever reason
caution is indicated.
If II is the rule among any grou1
Of stocks that the investment return
on them Is less than is obtatnablt
on the corresponding bonds the prob
ability is that the peak of stocl
prices has been reached and that &
turn is near. Keeping this principle
in mind will help investors avoid tht
error of buying stocks when they
ought to take bonds.

NEW YORK. August lit is
traditional that the Curb Market al
ways moves sympathetically with
developments on the Stock Exchange
and the action Of the market today
proved no exception to the rule. The
outstan ding developments in the
speculation was the drastic break in
the highly speculative Manhattan
Electrical Supply shares on the big
board.
The abruptness Of the decline un.
settled speculative sentiment and
caused anxiety as to whether or not
speculative excuses had been COM
mitted in other industrial specialties.
Stocks like Johns-Manville, Cuneo
Press and others which had been to
the front in the campaign for higher
prices were freely offered, but the
manner in which the main body of
stocks withstood the selling was
impressive.
The oil shares were freely supplied
whenever bids made their appearance,
but declines In most instances were
limited to small fractions. Humble
Oil at 60s compared with the previ-
Gus final of 611a. and Standard Of In.
diana dropped below 1871 again.
While this selling was in progress
the senior obligations of electric re-
frigeration companies continued to
improve. Serv-El Corporation per
cent bonds went to their highest for
the present recovery when they
changed hands at 81. compared with
Wednesdays final of 2SN. Electric
Refrigeration per cents were bid up
across so. Notwithstanding the rise of
S points in the preceding session.
Richmond Radiator maintained its
place Of prominence among the spe.
cialty favorites possibly because spec
ulation on the buying side had not
been carried to extremes recently. At
35 it established a new high. with lit
tie stock for sale on the way up.
