NEW YORK, Aug. 23.-Interests
possessed of large financial means
showed their confidence in the
credit structure Of the country today
by going heavily into the stock mar
ket and buying such high grade is
sues as United States Steel in I'M
usual volume. despite the announce
ment overnight of heavy increase
in brokers loans.
The result was that United States
Steel sold at its highest price in
history and other stocks of the
type Of Westinghouse Electric, Du-
pont, Eastman Kodak, International
Telephone and Telegraph and Wool
worth Company went up to record
prices.
The situation showed that bank
ers considered the federal reserve
boards report showing excellent
condition Of credit in the country Of
far more Importance than the sup
posedly disturbing increase in brok-
ers' loans which Thursday night
had caused many to predict fall
ing market today.
Dealings Are Large
Dealings took on larger proper
tons as the day wore on and sales
to 100 amounted to 3,453, 500 shares,

ferred made a sensational rise along

tinues to operate on a record basis
with indications that the full earn
ingS may surpass SO a share on
combined 2,666,315 shares of pre-
ferred and common stocks.
An indicated earnings of $26,000,-
900 this year and paying out $10.-
100000 in dividends the surplus ac-
count will be further enhanced by
about $16,000,000, bringing it to $685.
100000. On this basis, Westing-
house, 1t was said, easily could pay
a stock dividend.
New Record Highs
Further record highs in both the
Industrial and railroad shares aver
ages were established during the
day, it was revealed by the prelim-
mary figures, which showed the in
dustrial average had climbed $4.56
to $374.51, while an advance of So
to sl80.69 was shown in the rail
average.

mean that leproSy, a plague of man

out. Studies are being carried on
here by the United States army

In these experiments. an attempt

stance was leprosy transmitted to
man.
For the present studies, volunteers,
prisoners serving long terms, were
selected. with permission of the late
Governor General Wood. Mosqui-
toes were allowed to feed on LESSONS
Of leprosy patients and then to bite
the healthy volunteers who were
free from leprosy. Sixteen months
later, the volunteers still were free
from leprosy.
This is not long enough to rule
out the possibility of leprosy de-
veloping. However, the volunteers
may not be susceptible to the dis
ease. The studies, begun under
