In the Stock Market
CBy Thomson & McKinnon)

NEW YORK, Nov. 23-The side
walks of New York, famous in song
and story, are destined to become
even more famous, because here are
being solved financial problems that
used to tax the ingenuity of our
greatest minds. Here is where you
will be told in tones that almost
carry conviction not to bother about
brokers' loanS-it's old fogy stuff;
we will show the bankers they don't
know anything. A hundred million,
why it isn't worth talking about.
And as for stocks, why just wait a
few days and we will show them
some thousand-dollar ones. While
this free and easy way is catching
the multitude and obtaining daily
a greater following, we are rather
inclined to think that in the more
exclusive recesses of our leading
financial institutions there are men
with more serious expressions, men
of vast experience and knowledge
to whom the whole affair looks like
a very serious problem. You are
bullish, of course; every one is bull
ish, so we say the Lord bless you,
but keep a fairly good balance in
the bank; you may want it one of
these days.

Landon commended that the fund
had never been sufficient with the
agencies dependent upon it for sup

"We in Indianapolis have never
given two dollars per capita, while
our sister cities all about us give
three, four and five" he said. He
expressed faith in ultimate success
of the workers.

weather induced selling of corn.
Oats lost in sympathy.
Wheat opened Is to % sent

The wheat trade appears 10 be
awaiting developments and watch
ing the Argentine, where harvesting
is in progress. Statistics still are
bearish, but the opinion prevails
that prices will be affected only by
news and export trade.
Better weather and higher prices
have failed to bring larger ship
ments of corn from the country.
Most traders are bullish, believing
that good export demand and the
depletion of stocks at terminals will
more than balance the record
breaking crop.
Farmers still are holding on to
their oats and light receipts have
brought higher prices. Commission
houses have been active in the De-

DOUBT TIPS VALUE
Cops SkepticaI of CIew to

Although detectives have investi-

have no clews which now seem like

Pulliam, general manager of the
Bair theaters, killed Monday night
in the 700 block OH FIT. Wayne ave-
nue. as he was taking theater re-
ceipts to a downtown vault, Detec-
tive Captain Fred Simon said to-
day.
Simon is in direct charge of the
detectives working on the case. One
of the tips" was given by a woman
who called at police headquarters
Thursday night. She gave the name
of a man who in a general way,
she said, resembled the description
of one of the bandits. Her tip was
being investigated, but as only a
vague description was obtained of
any of the bandits there is little
chance hers will be more valuable
than the others, Simon said.
