worked out, "well, there's millions in
them thar bills"


Then there is the matter Of big Navy
propaganda, ciampioned by William B..
Shearer apparently the best paid of the
big Navy CHAMPIONS in the United
States He admits having received al
ready $4,000 for his work from three
of the largest shipbuilding companies
in the United States, and has sued
them for $3.50, 900 more for services
rendered"
When the Senate voted an appro-
priation of $4,000 for an investigation
by the naval affairs committee 1t
brought the whole subject of war
propaganda to the country's attention
rather more forcibly than has been the
case IN recent years. War propaganda
was developed during the war to fine
point. The American people and the
peoples of all the other nations were
whipped up to fury heat against their
enemies by many stories that later
were admitted to be false.
But the stories were believed They
were put out to add to the morale OF
the fighting forces of each nation.
The peace enthusiastically those
who have championed disarmament
programs throughout the world since
the war-have been accused frequently
of being financed by the bolsheviks.
But it has never been shown that any
money from Russia has ever been re-
ceived by the peace societies for such
work.
Richard Washburn Child, former
American Ambassador to Italy, wants
the Shearer investigation by the Senate
to be broadened to include all prop
uganda societies-those opposed to big
navies as we'll as those for them.
But the Senate yesterday held to Its
the Shearer case and the shipbuilders.
Some interesting facts should be
brought out in the next two weeks.

Special Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, September 13.-Reac-
ton and recovery followed each other
on the Curb Exchange today. The
morning session was one of falling
prices, with only few exceptions, but
in the afternoon the movement was re-
versed and a good part of the lost
ground regained.
Among the incidents was a spectacu-
lar 30point jump in National Public
Service "B," which is the voting stock.
It closed at 597s and sold today at 90,
with the bid and asked half hour be-
fore the end 70a90. American g.
Foreign Power warrants made a new
high, keeping step with the stock on
the big board, and new peaks were also
reached by Hercules Motor and Ground
Gripper Shoe.
National Investors, on the other hand,
which has been one of the fast movers
on the side of advance in recent ses-
SionS, dropped 80 points to $780, The
price movement was downward at the
opening.
The market, after the first half hour,
showed a better tone only to relapse
as prof1t-taking increased on other ex-
changes.
Selling Is Heavy.
Several siEeable blocks of Bethlehem
Steel rights were tossed on the market,
bringing about a break at one time of
IS point between sales. Petroleum
Corporation of, America was another
stock to feel the effects of this type of
selling. 1t was off nearly point. From

future payments on securities at this
time, have been reducing their holdings
Utility trends continued mixed. One
OF the notable features was the lessened
activity in natural gas stocks, which
have recently played a prominent role
in this section. Some of the holding
companies declined. Commonwealth
Southern, for example, reached a new
low as several large blocks were thrown
on the market.
Electric Bond and Share. after an
early rise, met some profit taking which
Kept 1t from forging ahead at the rapid
pace OF recent sessions Northern

little difficulty in climbing to a new

Unfavorable August copper statistics
started the selling in copperS which ex-
tended even to the low priced African
shares. Newmont Mining at one time
was down nearly points.
Ford Motor of Canada was one of the
most active of the motors, moving frac-
tionally higher after a slight decline.

pointed lower despite the prospects for
a further curtailment of production.

Snowfall Above Normal.
The Weather Bureau reported the

UNIFIED CUSTOMS
SYSTEMS SOUGHT
Pan-American Group Acts
Toward Consolidation
of Charges.

Consolidation of customs charges in
countries where this principle has not
been put into effect was recommended
yesterday at the first meeting of the
customs group general committee of
the Pan-American Commission on Gus
toms Procedure and Port Formalities,
which opened here.
The group is seeking greater stand
ardization and simplifcation in the
variety of units upon which customs
duties are levied In the various Ameri-
can republics.
Proposal Adopted.
The committee adopted a proposal
that the emolumenS of customs officials
should be paid by the government con-
cerned and not by the shipper, carrier
or consignee. Complaint was made that
an adequate number of customs officers
are not employed regularly at the ports
of some countries to handle expeditions
ly the normal flow of commerce at
those ports.
Part-time Deputies.
AS a consequence, the conference was
informed, carriers, steamship companies
and conSigneeS are asked from time to
time to pay the salaries of deputy in
Spectors and part-time employees to pre-
vent delay in clearance.
A proposal to permit administrative
authorities to promulgate regulations
covering the assessment of duties on
mixed packages was favored, with the
recommendation that different articles
in a package should pay the rate of
duty attached to each article.
