tcday's stock market, the third largest
session in stock exchange history. More
than two score issues, led by General
Motors, General Electric and Radio,
established new high records, some OF
the gains running as high as II points.
New leaders were quickly brought for
ward whenever the old favorites show
cd signs of slipping on profit-taking,
with the oils and coppers taking a
prominent part for the first time since
the current "bull" movement started. :
Total sales were 3,9O38OO shares, or
less than 10000 shares below the record
turnover of March 13. 1t was the
ninth consecutive full session that the

TRAVEL Is NOW
HEAVIEST EAST
BOUND IS REPORT
Tourist Traffic Getting the
Folks Back Home After
Winter on Coast

Tourist travel is once more moving
at something like the normal rate
with the larger percentage being in
the eastward direction, according to
garage men about the city. 1t is not
yet as heavy as it was prior to Christ
mas but the business is growing and
the indications are that it will soon
be at the spring peak.
Most of the cars are licensed from
California. Practically all the ones
going east carry the California license
plate, that being due to the fact that
the winter tourists remained in that
state until so much of the new year
had gone that California plate was
advisable as matter of travel when
they got back to their own state, even
if they had not exceeded the courtesy
limit. Licenses in California cost but
two dollars and most tourists buy a
California plate if they are there a
few weeks, even though they might
operate their own home state license
plate safely.

out after grain attracted considerable
attention, especially as the day neared

insane late Thursday afternoon and
after partially wrecking the interior
Of the local Western Union office,

the county jail.

The combined strength OF five men
was required TO subdue the man, two
receiving cuts and bruises in the
scuffle.
Torres had been employed in the
local Western Union office is years.
After the death Of his daughter he
sustained a nervous breakdown. In
March he went 10 Laredo to work in
the telegraph office. returning 10
Brownsville recently on a short leave
Of absence.
Late Thursday afternoon Torres
entered the Western Union office to
