NEW YORK, March QN.S.).
March in the stock market came
In like a roaring ion on the crest
of a wave Of furious buying demand
for the copper, steel, rubber and au.
tomobile stocks.
The tap OF the opening gong on
the big board found huge acca.
mutation Of orders for the stocks
which finished Thursdays session
in a blaze of glory, and stock sales
in the first half hour were ap.
proximately 1,200.0 900 shares, or at
the rate of 10000 ,O00-share ses.
sion. No less than $4,000 shares of
Kennecott Copper we're required to
fill the opening shopping orders,
while the first turnover for ANA
conda, United States Steel. Bethle.
hem, International Nickel, etc,
called for from 10000 to 10000
Before the end of the first hour,
Anaconda, the "old wonder stock"
had moved up another tx points to
155, completing gain of about 20
points for the week. Goodyear.
leading the parade in the rubber and
tire stocks, gained points at 135.
Bosch Magnetic made a 4-point gain,
Radio Corporation ran points be-
yond 400 in new sEurt, with heavy
trading, and new gain of from ] to
8 points were recorded in American
Steel Foundries. Bethlehem Steel,
Andes Copper, Kennecott, Interna.
tional Nickel and United States Rub
ber.
The bulls had the better of the
argument from the money stand
point.
In week Of sharply advancing
stock prices, the total of brokers
loans increased only $4,000 600
showing that the big bulls and
powerful financial interests have
been buying stocks with their own
money rather than with borrowed
funds. The little bulls have
strengthened their margin accounts,
and refuse to be crowded out of a
market which has already given
them excellent profits.

letting her station go past unheeded,

But at the time Crystal was
unaware that she was observed.
She had no plan beyond suicide,
which must be accomplished as
speedily and painlessly as possible.
With a nebulous memory OF
Faiths saying that she was to play
bridge that afternoon at a neigh
boris, Crystal dared go to the Hath
awav home.
There was some idea in her head
of arraying herself fittingly for
death. The underclothes she was
wearing were only third-best. There
was the white silk and lace com

About how the jewelers. shops

how you sit in the cafe on the

by. And the women are the love-

And every little shop is so cram
full of fashion and of elegance,
that you're simply dazZled with
splendor."
"Baby!" he chided. 1.-THE Rue de

Whats Sainte Chapelle?" she in

"The loveliest chapel in the

windows are like gems. An ancient
king built it to house his holy rel

brought a piece of the True Cross,

"And he commissioned the great

a saving of about s. 1000 per mile
in the cost Of concrete roads will be
effected.
The test road Is being built Just
as an ordinary concrete read would
be constructed except that the mix
ture for each slab will contain a
different kind or amount of coarse
aggregate and a different quantity
Of water. Mixing. placing and fin
ishing of the concrete will be done
in accordance with modern paving
practice, using standard equipment.
After curing. the slabs will be
drilled for cores and subdivided into
beams suitable for fleXure or bend
ing tests.
Supplementary tests will also be
made on beams and cylinders cast
at the time the pavement slab is
placed. which will show the rela-
tionship between the strength Of
nodded specimens and that If spec
linens cut from pavement slabs.

a continent of protests nowadays.
All nations protest against hav-
ing to pay their war debts; states
men protest against each others
announcements; parties protest
against each others policies: MI
norilies protest against coercion by
their overlords; the Rhineland pro-
tests: the Saar protests: farmers
protest against governmental neg
lect and the man in the street is
forever protesting against the cost
Of living and high taxation.
An these protests evoke counter
protests. and these contemporaries
lead to more protests, and SO on
endlessly.
The city OF Danzig protested
against the Versailles treaty on its
tenth anniversary. The Poles pro-
tested that the DanZigers had no
right 10 protest. Then the DAN
zigers protested against the Polish
protest. whereupon the Poles re-
protested.
Protesting becomes a mania in In
dividual cases. At Traunstein, Ba-
varia. a man committed suicide, be-
cause he said in a note, he felt
himself responsible for all the trou-
bles of the Fatherland. And a:
