IndustriaIs Strong.
BY GEORGE T.. HUGHES.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, March 14-From start
to finish the party working for higher
prices never relaxed its grip on today's
stock market. Using standard industrials
as the medium and taking them in large
blocks, they bid up quotations agrees
sively.
Today's leaders were Bethlehem
Steel, which in the last hour, above 1O8,
was higher than at any time since the
World War; United States Steel, at a
new high on the movement; General
Motors, duplicating the previous 1929
top as it touched So, and Radio. old
and new, both of which set new peaks
the former at $500 and the latter above
500 share.
Credit Easier.
For ammunition the bull party had
the generally accepted opinion that
there would be no change in the New
York bank rate today, series of opti-
mistic forecasts of steel company earn
ings and comparative ease in call
money, which held at per cent all
dav. Activity increased toward the end,
but large part of the total turnover
was made up Of transactions in few
stocks.
The demonstration began with Radio.
Opening prices for both the old and
new stock were higher The latter
started in on a block of $4,000 shares
at 951a, up a point and a half. Before
noon 1t was selling above SO, the highest
since trading IN 1t was begun. Mean
while the old stock had touched 492.
up almost Is points and likewise at a
record high. Presumably a part of
this advance was at the expense of a
short interest
The strength spread to the standard
industrials. Bethlehem was the leader
of the independent steels. taken in large
blocks up from to points, while
United States Steel above 1856 was at
a new high on the present movement.
General Electric jumped points as it
passed 237. Commercial Solvents made
a new top at 283, up almost II points.
International Telephone scared more
than 6 points, approaching ZIG. Other
strong issues included Johns Manville,
International Harvester, United States
Industrial Alcohol and Electric Auto
Lite.
Oil stocks were moderately higher.
Barndall, Texas Corporation and Allan
tic Refining were among the leaders.
The move in the oils however, appeared
to have lost force. For a time the rub

bly, u. S. Rubber and GOODYEAR

resented the food shares.
All this time the copper stocks were
barely holding their own and the rails
were, with few exceptions, neglected.
The Street paid little attention to the
ruling of the Interstate Commerce
Commission in the Wheeling e. Lake
Erie case. Baltimore g. Ohio f1uctuated
within narrow range. New York
Central gained a point or so but on a
small turnover. Once more the absence
of short interest in the rails was in
dicated. There were no outstanding
contracts for the decline to be taken in
here and so there was no rapid advance
in the prices Of the stocks as was the
case with the industrials.

Evans Urges investment tdutoh'
Women. as investors, are playing
significant part in the increased actlv-
ity of the countrys security markets,
IN the opinion of Joshua Evans. lr., wee
president of the District National Bank,
who recently spoke on Investments and
Credit before section OF the Twentl-
eth Century Club.
He urged the utmost caution in the
purchase of stocks and bonds at this
time and pointed out the wisdom OF
first consulting a banker or reputable
broker before buying securities OF any
nature. Describing the various types OF
investment trusts, Mr.. Evans saw the
most efficiently organized OF these as
a growing field for the small investor
who would participate with least risk in
a cross section Of the market. The
talk was largely devoted to an EXPOSE
tory treatment of stocks ana market
practices.

To The Patrons OF The Motion
Picture Theatre

The motion picture theatre has a
romantic history. In the short per-
iod of about 20 years it has had a
development which is unrivaled in
the history of American business.
However uncertain as is it's early
history, we know that our modern
motion picture theatre had a hum
BILE forerunner. Remember the pen
ny arcades. About 1902 an empty
store next to a penny arcade was
rented and furnished with screen,
chairs, projection machine. Dur
ing the year 1906 and 1907 motion
picture theatres were spreading all
over the country. They were only
remodeled store rooms and cannot
be compared with the fine motion
picture theatres of today. In 1912

Personality

1t has been said that theatres
have personality. That personali-
ty has it's most effective expression
in those who make up the theatre
staff. They give human touch to
it all. Their courtesy impresses the
fact that the patron is guest. In
our theatre we want you to feel that
way. The service we can give you
is our greatest possession.
From the earliest theatre of the
Greeks, where the hillside accommo-
dated those who sought entertain
Morgan County Democrat. (McConnelsville, Ohio) 1886-1943, 1929-10-03

the Lyceum theatre, New York City,
was leased to show the photoplay,
Queen Elizabeth" For the first
time the motion picture was pre-
sented as the main attraction in the
setting of a real theatre.
Morgan County Democrat. (McConnelsville, Ohio) 1886-1943, 1929-10-03
Good

One of the assets of any business
institution is goodwill. Though in
tangible, it is very real. A habit of
coming to a particular institution,
rather than elsewhere, because OF
satisfaction with past services or
confidence in the product and the
values offered, is goodwill.
Morgan County Democrat. (McConnelsville, Ohio) 1886-1943, 1929-10-03
Community Contact

No institution can be established
with a "public-be-damned" policy.
Public service today is indispensa
BILE. Service is not limited to giving
only what is paid for, and no more.
Morgan County Democrat. (McConnelsville, Ohio) 1886-1943, 1929-10-03

ment, down through the years to the
modern palatial motion picture
theatre, every advance of science
and art was adopted by the theatre.

COnVenJlOn-CnaC Jne 1f1endS OF The pro-
hibition policy may counsel together and
plan the campaign how best to repulse
the attacks of those who would overthrow
the policy, thus retaining what we
have, and how best to promote more per-
feet enforcement and observance of the
law.
WHAT A REVIEW OF THE TEN
YEARS RECALLS
The convention is held at a time which
marks the tenth anniversary of the Eight
eenth Amendment. These past ten years
offer much for encouragement to push the
sion. The friends of prohibition are JUS
titled in recognizing and rejoicing over
the moral, health and economic benefits
fight for sobriety to a successful conclu-
which have resulted through prohibition
under admittedly imperfect enforcement.
Recognition of these blessings will spur
the drys to greater effort to maintain the
policy and to bring about better obserV-
ance Of the law.
1t will also indicate whatever mistakes
have been made in the administration of
the law and will reveal those provisions
in it that are most in need of strengthen
ing. Certainly whatever changes are to
be made either in the administration Of
lne law or IN the law ltSeu should be MADE
by its friends, those who, with the Pres
ident, wish to see the law succeed" and
not by those who are intent upon de-
stroying it. 1t is we'll worth while there
fore, to look back over these ten years
momentarily. We find in them both en-
couragement and a challenge. We must
accept the challenge which bids us to fight
not only to hold what we have gained but
to advance. It is either retreat or fora0ard
march!
An unbiased presentation of blessings
and difficulties and failures will be made
at the Detroit convention by men and
women representing every section of the

UNITED TOR GOVERNMENT
CONTROL

Where a few months ago each vet Or
ganizat.on was urging its own substitute
for prohibition there seems now to be a
unity Of action in demanding some form
Of so-called government control such as
prevails in the Canadian provinces as a
substitute If this unity is as real as it
pretends, it is the first time in the history
of the prohibition movement when the
drys will have to face an enemy wholly in
agreement upon method of procedure.
PROHIBITION POLICY MENACED
The situation calls the drys to more in
tensive and comprehensive campaign than
ever before conducted. 1t must be cam
paign that will reach the youth and the
foreign language speaking groups, es-
pecially in the cities with the truth about
alcohol and with the truth about the Ii
cense system as operated before prohibi-
tion-all this to counteract the publicity
of the enemies of prohibition broadcast
through the metropolitan press and the
wet magazines. The dryS must maintain
their organizations in the various congress
sional districts to insure Congress that
will not attempt to substitute for prohi-
bftion any form of regulation whether it
be government control or a traffic limited

VETS ORGANIZED AND WELL
FINANCED


In spite of the fact that the beverage
liquor traffic is outlawed its friends were
never SO we'll organized. never SO well
financed, and never so skillfully directed
as they are to-day. The metropolitan
newspapers with a few notable exceptions
are enlisted in the fight against prohibi-
ton. An astonishingly large number of
magazines are jeorardizing their good
reputation for adhering to high standards
of American ideals, by espousing the cause
of those who would bring back liquor even
at the cost Of nullifying the Constitution.
The liquor trade journals nave for the
most part suspended publication and Pc
riodlcals disguised as family magazines
but in reality spokesnen for the OutlaWed
rquor traffic have taken their place. A
NV of the Wealthest and large manufac-
turers and business men of the country
are not only giving individually tens of
thousands of dollars to the leading wet
organization, the Association Against the
Prohibition Amendment, but are also di-
recting the campaign to restore the liquor
traffic to the United States.
