Plans for an investigation into social
and economic causes of business fail
ures in the country have been adopted
by Yale Law School. Dean Robert M.
Hutchins announced. Field investi-
gators of a number of geographical
divisions, each of which reflects social
and economical trends, will study the
credit system.
The social and economic effects OF
the failures will also be part of the
study as well as the legal and nom
legal methods of preventing them and
of curing the resultant disorders. The
Law School hopes to point out prac-
tees existing in the handling Of bank
ruptcy cases which credit men and
legislation can adjust.
The investigation will begin within a
few days, starting with Philadelphia.
AS funds are obtained the study will in
clude the New England States, New
York, the industrial and agricultural
sections of the South, the mining and
agricultural sections of the Middle

of the Assencion. Of Columbia. s. c.
A meeting of the congregation Of

High church honors have COME to

ROLAND HAYES
SINGS HERE

The BeIascO Theater overfloWed
with admirers OF Roland Hayes yes
terday afternoon. when the great col
|ored tenor rendered a benefit recital
for Gerald Taylor, composer and
former teacher in the public schools.
This was the second occasion this
season upon which we have had the
inestimabIe pleasure of hearing what
America proudly acclaims one OF her
most treasured voices.
This event upon Mr.. Hayes recent
return from Europe, where he was
occupied with a tour OF concerts, re-
lvealed even more impressively those
sterling qualities of expression and
tonal grandeur for which he is re-
nowhed.
It VS. doubly pleasurable to dis.
cover that his excellent program IN
cluded two numbers. which have be-
come almost synonymous with his
name-"Deep River" as arranged by
H T. Burleigh, and Wade In Inc
Water" in the Edward Boatner ar
rangement. These selections were
supplemented by "Campmeetin ana
Heilman's New Born"
'tWhen I Am Laid in Earth" by
Purcell. and Handeis Would You
Gain the Lovely Creature?" exer'
cised in fun the splendor OF his
voice.
Paul Dunbar's poem, "Ships That
Pass in the Night" disclosed his
dramatic power and tonal volume,
together with fine Interpretation OF
the most profound passages. The
poem was set to music by Mr.. Tyler.
It Is, however, in moments OF
suppressed vocalization that Mr..
Hayes appears at his best. The
clearness and trueness with which
he is capable of producing tones
just above a whisper that reach
every section Of an auditorium, en-
tirely preserved in their exquisite
beauty, is an art that only the
rarest Of singers possess.
The program offered group OF
piano selections by Mr.. Tyler.
Percival Parham, Mr.. Hayes off,
cial accompanist, gave splendid as
sistance to the artist by his effec-
tive work at the piano.-Madeline
Ensign.

PROFIT TAKING

RALLY

NE WYORK, May (I.N.S.).-The
crash in Advance Rumely common
and preferred stock, with dramatic
suddenness in the first half hour of
trading today, had the natural effect
Of unsettling the market for the fast
stepping 'specialties' which have
been tripping up the line In their
mysterious movements this week.
Wide circulation of reports that

which period the common skyrock.

while the preferred jumped from 5S

unloading" accompanied yester.
days 20-point drop in both issues,
and before the opening of the mar.
ket today details Of the proposed re.
capitulation, through the organiza-
tion of a new Maryland company.
Nobody appeared to be very anx.
ious to buy Rumely today. and the
common took another nose dive to
so, for a further loss of 221s points,
while the preferred at 80 was down
91I. A sharp rally near the end of
the first hour brought the common
back to 20, but the delays in ticker
added to the confusion among
traders in the brokerage houses.
The new company will have $12,.
SOC, 900 of per cent cumulative pre-
ferred stock; 125,000 shares of con.
vertible class A, and 1000, 600

The bears opened up the big guns
in an effort to force down prices of a
few other industrials and specialties
that have been in the speculative
limelight in the last week or two,
butNafter a moderate early reaction,
the bulls rallied their forces. Weak
ness In the grain markets and in
some ofthe local commodity markets,
together with uneasiness over the
money situation, did mot help mat
ters, but there was no frenzied
unloading TO stock such as has been
seen in some of the unsettled mar.
kets of the last few months.
Hudson led the motors with new

of speculative selling of General

The oils and metal socks stiff.
fened in the second hour. Standard
Oil of New Jersey sold in big blocks
above so. Simms and Skelly, in the
low-price oil group. were in good de-
mand at fractionally higher prices.
Weekend profittaking in the indus.

rally in the late trading, but the pub

forward buoyantly under confident
leadership.

CLARENDON, Va, May 4.-Mem-
bers Of the holding company for the

tribute to the fund necessary for

above named organizations and ask
support.

RICH NOT STOCK
BULLS, SAYS
FORBES
By B. c. FORBES

The majority Of the wealthiest
men in the financial world cor
fess, but not for quotation, that
they are not bullish on the
stock market. They don't like
the condition Of the money
market.
Fhey feel that high money,
II continued, will inevitably have
a restrictive effect upon enter.
prise. And they don't see how
money can become easy untli
extensive liquidation develops in
Wall Street.
A queer sight was witnessed
in New York on May Day.
Thousands gathered IN Union
Square in front of a radical news
paper building bedecked In revo-
iutionary red. Communistic ana
anarchistic banners by the core
were carried by the paraders.
Down with the bosses" was
among the mildest. Red was the
prevailing color.
why Not Leave
The thought which sprang to my
mind as I watched this foreign
looking crowd with their un.Ameri-
can banners was, "if they don't
like this country, why don't they
get out Of it? Why don't they
migrate to that paradise Of the
Communists, Russian"
How many of our imported Com.
munists, anarchists and other revo-
lutionaries would elect to return to
their native countries If given op-
portunity? They know where they
are we'll off, but they don't mani
fest the appreciation which it is
hard to believe they do not feel.
Aren't you terribly tired of pro-
fessional organizers of new clubs,
associations. societies and what.
not? Scratch beneath the surface
and you usually find a fat rakeoff
is taken by these money-raiseFs.
Why do prominent business meR
and others allow themselves to be
talked into lending their names to
schemes without first thoroughly
investigating?
Garage Centers
There was much rejoicing In
Brooklyn IN. " this week over
the opening Of the Brooklyn Park
ing Terminal, a ramp garage, IN
the very heart of the city, capable
of accommodating almost TOO cars.
The company sponsoring it plans
to erect similar structures at
strategic points in New York and
other large municipalities. Police
Commissioner Whalen would like
to see many such refugees for auto
mobiles, because they would greatly
simplify what has become one OF
New York sand most other
cities'-major problems, street
parking.
Is garage building in congested
city districts to become Z profit
able pioneer industry?
