Electric Iron Tragedies

Invited to suggest ''new uses for
an electric iron," 500 housewives
have written to the editor of the
Woman's Home Companion. The
matter Of frying an egg on the bot
tom Of an iron is favorite sugges-
tion. One devoted reader burned
the babys coat propping up the
iron. Another lady tells Of trying
to warm bed with an electric iron,
with this result: "Warmest bed you
ever saw-or smelled; next time ]
shall use asbestos Sheets"

Additional Markets
STOCK PRICES
LEAP UPWARD
Extreme Gains in Active Is.
sues Range from Two to
Nearly Is Points

New York, May 7.-F-Buying
orders poured into the stock market
from all sections of the country to-
day and prices leaped upward in
impressive fashion. Extreme gains
in the active issues ranged from
two to nearly Is points, with blocks
of 5000 to 10000 shares appearing
on the tape at frequent intervals. So
great was the accumulation of or.
dcrs that the ticker fell nearly As
minutes behind the market by early
afternoon.
There were no new developments
over the weekend to explain the
tremendous volume Of buying. The
brisk demand for such high grade
issues as American telephone, In
ternational Telephone, American
Bank note, American Can, Canadian
Pacific and Jersey Central, all of
which advanced 8 to IL points to
new peak prices, was widely con-
strued as an indication Of q large
investment demand. Operations BY
powerful speculative pools stimulat-
ed the demand for large flock Of
new dividend paying shares, the
rise in which was associated with all
sorts of merger and dividend rum
ors.
Banks called about $4,000, 900
in loans by early afternoon, but
there appeared to be a large sur
plus Of funds available at the re-
newal rate Of five per cent on call
loans.
Short covering accelerated the
rise in many specialties, particular
~ those in which the floating sup
ply was small. Brokers reported
that the recent efforts of federal re-
serve authorities to curb speculation
had resulted in the building up of q
large short interest but the public
demand for stock was so large that
many timid bears" ran to cover on
the appearance Of strong buying
support for supposedly overpriced
shares.
Electric auto-lite scared nearly IA
points to new peak at 2O3 ia.
bank note extended its
gain to nearly nine points by touch
ing 1877. Canadian Pacific climbed
2 l-2 points to POI the highest price
in IL years, and Jersey Central sold
at 375 for the first time since 1912.
General Motors ran into heavy
profit-taking after creating a new
peak at 21O, but held within a few
points Of that level Gains Of two
to five points were scattered
throughout the list.
Total sales crossed the 100000
mark before the end of the third
hour.

on his part in reference to the case,
