NEW To4aK. Nov. 1s. Charles
Austin Beard, authority on poll
tics, in recent address, remarked
that the great problems Of public

He might with equal truth have
made the same observation about
the stock market. Imponderable

pprice-fixing process in Wall Street.
Attempts to appraise develop.

q large extent unknowable, cam

ceed intuitively in their own way.
laundering through by q process
of trial and error. Meanwhile
those who base their views or
value on arbitrary, mechanical,
statistical formulae are more or
eless perpetually out of tune with
the ticker.
Where They Fail
Tf all agree that a stock
should sell 10 times current earn
ings, the statistician can be USE
ful in formulating the earnings
OF companies, and pointing out
which stocks sell too high and
which too low. But in the present
market the argument is over
the rate at which earnings should
be multiplied. Industrial and pub
lie utility stock on the average
are selling more than is times
This dispute cannot be
settled statistically any more than
the question of State versus
private ownership can be deter
mined in that manner.
OF course, the leaders who
manipulate the m arket and set.
the pace, must proceed in q
manner that will breed conVic.
ton lest they entail huge losses.
The larger profits usually come
from anticipating q new trend in
corporate success ar earnings,
rather than in arbitrarily Great
ing q semblance OF strength in
kdirections in which underlying
facts do not warrant.
The philosophy of the bulls has
been that it isproper to capitalize
not merely 1928 earnings but
also indications of forward
progression of earnings in com
parIies which show an unmistak.
able rising trend. Accordingly,
they may have in mind the
average anticipated earnings dur
ing atf1e next five years. and may
be buying stocks at only 10 times
such computed earning power.
The role of the speculator. of
course, is to hold property dur
Ing the days Of uncertainty and

Investors when current realities

skill as a flag maker was known
far and wide. Late in the spring of
1875 her little shop in Arch street,
Phila., was visited by some dis
tinguished patrons. A committee,
headed by George Washington, call
ed on Mrs. Ross and submitted a
rough design of a new type of flag.
Stars had been substituted for the
crosses of st. George and st. An
drew. The committee was of the
opinion that the stars should be
six-pointed. Mrs. Ross showed them
how a five-pointed star could be
made by one snip of her scissors,
and her suggestion was adopted.
Some historians believe that Bet
sy Ross did not make the first flag.
Her descendants have vOuched for
the authenticity of the historic Wis
it, and it is known that not long
afterward Congress made an order
on the Treasury to pay Mrs. Ross
sum amounting to upward of
seventy dollars in the British cur
rency then used 'for flags for the
fleet in the Delaware river"
In view of the facts, Mrs. Ross
would seem to have a rightful claim
to the distinction of making the
first Stars and Stripes, even though
many others may have had a part
in the designing of it.
1t is of interest to know that
Mrs. Ross was a flag maker for
some sixty years, was thrice left
widow, lived to be "a years old, and
died in 1886.
Five or six weeks after Mrs. Ross
was commissioned to make the flag,
the Liberty Bell so vitality associat-
ed with the flag and the nation,
rang out the glad tidings of the
Declaration of Independence, pro-
liberty throughout the
land.
Nearly twelve more months rolled
around, however, before the official
of the Stars and Stripes on
June IA, 1777. On that date Con-
gress resolved THAT the flag of the
United States be thirteen
stripes, alternate red and white;
that the union be thirteen stars,
white in a blue field, representing
a new constellation"
At last the colonies were united |
under one national banner. Hence
forth the nation was to be repre- !
sented by a flag which today is ac-
lnowledged, by even the most un-
sentimental persons, as the most |
beautiful of all flag designs.
A Flag Of Ladies' Gowns
News travelled fast, even in stage
coach days. Less than three weeks
after Congress had authorized the
flag, John Paul Jones was at Ports
mouth, N. H., preparing to sail
abroad on the Ranger" "At
writes Admiral Ches-
Milford chronicle., 1928-06-08

ter, Paul Jones attracted about
him bevy of girls who formed &
so-called flag bee, who with mucf
patriotic enthusiasm and many
heart thrills wrought out of theil
own and their mothers gowns g
beautiful Star Spangled Banner
, which was thrown to the breeze il
Portsmouth harbor on July 4, 1777.'
This is the earliest recorded display
of the new flag.
On August 8, Colonel Gansevoort
and his little command of 800 men
were defending Fort Stanwix, neal
the present site of Rome, N. Y. The
garrison heard of the new flag, and
| the fort was searched for materials
to fashion into the new design.
A captain offered his coat for the
blue field; soldiers wife donated
red petticoat for the stripes; and
the soldiers ripped their ammuni-
ton shirts to supply the white
stripes. 1t was not a handsome
banner, but it thrilled the hearts OF
its makers as they placed it on a
bastion nearest to the attacking
British and allied troops.
This was the first time, so far as
authentic records show that the
flag was displayed before a threat
ening foe.
A Shot For Each Stripe
Then came the flags first encoun-
ter at sea. Captain Thomas Thomp-
son, in command of the American
ship Raleigh, while en- route to
France, fired on a British vessel he
was pursuing on September 4. The
captain in a picturesque account of
the attack, stated in part: eve up
sails, out guns, hoisted the Contin-
entail colOrs and bid them strike to
the Thirteen United States. Sud-
den surprise threw them into con-
fusion and their sails flew all aback,
upon which we complimented them
with gun for each State, a whole
broadside into their hull"
The Stars and Stripes first floated
over a fortress of the Old World,
when Lieut.. Presley N. O'Bannon,
of the Tripolitan fortress at Derne,
on the North Coast of Africa, where
it was flung to the breeze on April
27, 1905.
"By the dawn's early light" on
September IA, 1914, Francis Scott
Key saw the Star-Spangled Banner
still waving triumphantly over Fort
Henry, and composed the famous
song which is now the national
anthem.
The Shrine of "OId Glory"
The little home of Betsy Ross has
remained unchanged through the
years, Old wood cuts show it to
be virtually the same as it vas $50
years ago. 1t is. now preserved as
an historical shrine.
