NEW YORK, July s.-~The outstand-
Ing feature on the Curb Exchange fol-
lowing the holiday suspension of activ-
tiles was the initial trading In the new
issue of Si,Sso,000 National Rubber
Machinery Co. first mortgage converti-
bic per cent gold bonds.
The issue was offered at 99ia. The
successful completion of this financing
was indicated by the manner In which
the price rose when trading started to-
day. First sales occurred at io8, after
which the price moved forward to l0e,
which meant a premium of 9l2 points
from the subscription figure. The adj
vance naturally was too sharp TO be
fully maintained, and the price sub
stantislly dropped back several points
from the high.
Along with the bonds were admitted
TO trading the $4,000 shares of National
Rubber Machinery common stock,
which were offered publicly at S22.7S
share. The initial sale in the open
market occurred at 26l2, after which
the price crossed 2Tla. The demand
was taken to mean that those who had
subscribed TO both offerings had not
obtained their full allotment and we're
endeavoring to acquire the remainder
in the open market.
The untimely death of Capt, Loewen-
stein. who was an important figure in
the artificial silk industry and in the
Tub.ze Co. OF Belgium, caused consid-
cradle uneasineSs as to the effect upon
Tubiye Artificial Silk of America. The
price for the issue sold down several
points at the outset. but rallied sharply
when Ii was announced that there was
no connection whatever between the
Two cnmp2uieS.
Mining issues moved sympathetically
higher with related issues on the Stock
Exchange. Hudson Bay Mining, OF
which Newmont is a large stakeholder,
opened on a block of 10000 shares at
2Oi. and subsequently crossed 81. New
mont rallied several points on heavy
turnover. Anglo-Chilean Nitrate was
higher. while Evans Wallower Lead,
comparative newcomer. went into new
high ground above Si2.
In point of activity and strength No
randa Mines was the outstanding fea-
ture. selling at new high record on an

FIRST BOMB SQUAD
FORMED IN MEXICO
Police Organized in Capital City
as Result of Recent
0utrages.

MEXICO CITY. (P.-The first bomb
squad of Mexican police has been
formed in the capital as the result OF
recent anti-Obregon bombings and
threats.
The police never needed bomb
squad before because pistols, rifles, a
little poison now and then. but rarely
bombs. have been customary in criminal
attempts here. However Alvaro Obre-
CONS enemies seem inclined to the
pineapple" method.
An attempt to assassinate Gen. OBJ
RECON. former President and sole candi-
date to succeed President Gales, was
made last November. Two crude, home
made bombs, apparently the work OF
amateurs. were thrown at his automo-
bile and pistols were fired into 1t. but
he escaped. A Catholic priest and three
laymen charged with responsibility for
the attempt we're shot by a firing squad
in the courtyard of police headquarters.
Recently bomb exploded in wash
room of the Chamber Of Deputies. where
most members are Obregon partisans,
and another exploded In Obregons po-
litical campaign headquarters. Little
damage was done and no one was IN
jured.
Clubs and organizations supporting
Oregon then received anonymous let
tiers threatening that they would be
bombed. Squads of special police were
detailed to guard these places and the
residences of Obregon leaders. Obregon
is carefully guarded all the time. by
arrangement OF his friends. and rather
against his will He is fatalist and
his courage is not questioned even by
those who hate him. If his friends did
not force guards upon him he would
roam around unprotected and take his
chance at defending himself II neces-

Amsterdam Citizens Post Letters on
Cars.

AMSTERDAM OP).-The foreigner
visiting Holland Is at first bewildered to
note that mail boxes even at downtown
corners are emptied only few times a
day.
The explanation is to be found in the
fact that the native Amsterdamer does
not throw his mail into the ordinary
mail box, but deposits 1t in the boxes
attached to all street cars that pass by
the chief railway station and the main
post office.
AS the car stops, the mail can con-
veniently be deposited in the assurance
that Ii will reach the main post ONCE or
the railway post Office not later than
half an hour thereafter.
