RecaI!ed-Rome Comment
Is Favorable.
~ the Associated Press.


PARIS, June i5-The nomination Of
Herbert C. Hoover as Republican cam
didate for the presidency was given
much favorable comment in the after
noon papers today. 1t was breakfast
time when news Of the nomination was
flashed to Paris and the morning papers
therefore had no comment.
For weeks there have been columns
In all the papers about the man whom
France knows so well through his food
relief and other war work
One paper in friendly enthusiasm
said; "He has every chance Of re-
placing Coolidge"
The platform resolution on debt set
tlement drew the remark in offlcial
circles that nobody in France now eX-
poets cancellation Of the debts, while
the idea of revision of settlement is
fading away with the progress of meas
ures looking toward sterilization.
II was added, however. that IL
France is ever asked to revise her claims
growing out of the war she will natural
~ expect the debts to be revised to
accord with any sacrifices she is asked
to make.

as one of the primary factors be-
hind the wild speculation in recent

Differs from, Old Days
In the old days" stock traders
sat around the customers rooms
OF commission houses and watched
boys mark up quotations on huge
boards, either With chalk or printed
cardboard numbers, as they were
called out by other young men who
leaned over tlckers. The number
of stocks quoted ranged from 50 to
Zoo, with the boards showing the

and occasionally the previous close
and the high and low of the year.
The boards often were poorly
placed and completely visible to
relatively few persons.

These boards are still i'll use, but
they have been supplemented in

houses by the movie ticker" gen.
