STOCKS GAIN
MILLIONS IN
QUICK SHIFT
Amazing Reverse Following
Sinking Opening Brings
Stride Forward.
TICKERS RUN BEHIND
u. S. Steel Is Leader Which
Brings New Lease OF
Life to Mart.

BH United Press
NEW YORK, Nov. THE stock
market staged a recovery today that
meant millions of dollars to hard
pressed traders throughout the ma
ton.
When it seemed there was no end
to a sweeping down turn, United
States Steel braced and started for
ward. Other leaders followed and
there started a buying rush from all
sections of the nation which sent
prices even above Wednesdays
close.
The recovery was OF a more
sweeping nature than Wednesdays
decline. Prices were up today 10 o
points above Wednesdays close.
The higher close was the more
remarkable in that during the first
hour today values had been clipped
millions of dollars when the market
kept up its sag, dropping to 10
points.
Tickers Far Behind
All along the list these early losses
corded, or at least wiped out.
Trading was at tremendous rate,
due to the great selling in the first
hour and the tremendous buying in
the last two hours. TickerS were
running behind more than an hour
at the close and sales we're at the
rate Of more than 100000 shares
for full five-hour day.
Bankers would not comment on
the turn for direct quotation, but
privately they expressed their pleas
ure. Wealthy individual traders
were relieved immensely.
Hundreds of accounts were de-
/ stroyed, however, in the early trad
ing and bargains in large quantity
were picked up later.
When the market turned up the
whole list made sharp gains. 1t
then hesitated for brief interval
as gains were being digested. The
next move was another advance that
continued to the close. A final
burst of buying caused most issues
! to close on highs of the day.
Steel Closes at 1741z
United States Steel reached lit
but sagged somewhat to close at
17415, up 51a points net for the day.
General Motors added $129,000,0O0
to its market valuation with a rise
of 8 points to 431a, where 1t closed
General Electric spurted 18 points,
Union Carbide 101a, Johns-Manville

o.
The commissioners and Director
John j. Brown of the department
did nothing at that time. But in
vestigation of the motor transport
division was launched by Lawrence
F. Orr, chief examiner of the state
board of accounts.
The result has been the taking
of complete inventory in the mo-
tor transport division, upon recon-
mendation of Ross Teckemeyer and
w. P. Cosgrove, board of accounts
field examiners. This is the first
time such physical inventory has
been taken since 1927, according to
the examiners report to Orr.
Greatly Reduced
The field examiners made specific
recommendation through which
they declared in their report, "the
administrative costs could be greatly
reduced"
They also have recommended that
a chief clerk be put in charge of all
highway accounting, and Orr has
sent the recommendation to Brown.
Brown announced today that the
matter is to be acted on by the
commission, but refused to state his
stand. He has sent Owen Boiling,
his assistant brought from the state
tax board, to examine the account
ing system prevailing in the Michi-
gan and Wisconsin departments it
was learned. The system in these
states is the one recommended for
use by the federal bureau of roads.
Here is the sort of system in use
by the Indiana department as
described in the field examiners re-
port:
Each of the several divisions keep
their own accounts and great deal
of the work is duplicated in an
effort to keep the records so that in
formation is available when needed ;
but changes in personnel have
changed these records so many
times that to get any statistical in
formation is almost impossible"
! Reorganization Asked
recommending that a chief clerk
be employed, the board of accounts
men ask that the accounting divi-
sion of the highway department be
reorganized, under their supervision
so that:
l. All records and accounts be
kept at central accounting depart
ment and that all divisions be re-
lieved of keeping accounts.
2. That all records and accounts
be kept uniform.
3. That all purchases be made
under a specified rule.
4. That all forms be standard, anc
that several divisions use the same
kind Of voucher for payment oi
claims.
5. That auditing be done in this
division and that several divisions
be required to certify the bills OF
estimate only as goods received OF
services performed.
Costs Could Be Reduced
''We believe, that if the above
recommendations were carried out
the administrative costs could be
reduced greatly and that with the
proper equipment, any information
| desired could be given while it was
current and of some value" the re-
port continues.
1t also points out that Boiling and
two other department assistants
each have different figure sup
posed to represent contract liabil-
ity," none of which may be ccr-
rest because of data being unavaii-
able.
1--WE believe that a liability ac-
count showing contracts outstand-
ing as well as large number OF
other similar items, should be par1
of the records and there would be nc
doubt as to their correctness" the

Comparison of the size of the

SNOBS

1t takes all kinds of people to make
the world. In this country, where
every respectable person is as good
as his neighbor and wears his SOW
ereignty under his hat, where men of
humble origin, without the veneer ap-
parently necessary to gain admission
to the inner sanctum of the socially
elect, have been elevated to the high
est office within the gift of the peo-
pie, it seems to most of US that it is
waste of valuable time of important
upon to decide whether a certain per-
son should be seated nearer the head
Of the table at public functions than
some other person.
The daughter Of late president de-
cided that she would snub another
woman and perhaps reprimand a hos
tess because a woman in the official
circle was slated to be seated near the
social throne at particular dinner.
Now this trait was not handed by her
distinguished father. Whether he was
dining with the Rough Riders" who
volunteered under him in the Spanish
War and eating beside a camp fire
from a mess kit, or WhetleI his knees
were beneath the folds of real Irish
linen tablecloth and his food being
served upon sterling silver platters in
the halls of kings, made no differ
ence to him If his associates were
good fellows" they could sit where
they pleased and he would take the
chair assigned him. He was so big
that he was not required to pose as a
big man.
Apropo: A story is going the
rounds of the papers about man who
dreamed he was dead. When he ar
rived at the place where he was as
signed to spend eternity, he at once
set out to look for a particular lady
| friend who, while on earth, held her
nose high in the air and did not hest
tate in making her associates feel
Inundated. His guide took him to the
diningroom and pointed to blue
blooded, high-class police dog seated
at the table. The man said: "You
don't mean to say that Mrs. Soandso
has to set next to that police dog ?"
ooh, dear no, sir" his guide replied,
cher place is farther down the table
on the other side of that little yellow
cur"

LABOR'S SHARE

The test of prosperity is its distrl-
button. Is enough of the saving from
production efficiency and mass out
put passed on to the consumer? And
does labor get it's share of the prof
it's?
The old-fashioned employer oper-
ated on a ublic-be-damned and labor
be-damned policy. He didn't ask
these questions, and he didn't care.
That attitude h a S C h d.
Modern employers aim at small sales
profit and a large turnover. They
make it their business to have con-
tented and adequately paid workers.
This change is due partly to higher
ethical standards Of employers, part
lv to the more fortunate economic
position of the United States per-
hitting a more generous business at
titude and partly to the increased
bargaining power of organized labor.
But the change is due chiefly to
the basic discovery that exploited
workers are poor producers, that in
dustrial strife is waste and that sus-
tanned prosperity depends on a high
degree of capital-labor cooperation,
The new system is supplanting the
old because it works better for both
parties; it is economically sound.

this revolt against law and order are
of foreign origin. So long as many
newspapers, some of them of vast
circulation and influence, persist in
sneering at and attacking certain of
our criminal laws, and in surrounding
the commercilized activities of law
breakers with the halo of resistance to
oppression, what wonder that crime
has increased to the point that in CT
ties like Chicago there is some doubt
as to whether the government or the
racketeer is supreme?
Some years ago a notable book
''The Revolt Against Civilization"
called attention to the fact that as
civilization advances it developes
within itself subversive forces which
tend to weaken and then destroy it,
and that human history is a success
sion of cycles in which progress is
succeeded by retrogression. There are
signs that our civilization is revolt
ing against itself. There is an identity
of effect, if not Of purpose, in the
commercilized activities of the rum
rings, the racketeers, the radical agi-
tators of armed revolution against the
United States and the highly orga-
niZed and financed movements to dis
arm the United States in the face of
peril created by the growth of ele-
ments which violently resist law IN
to the network of this general subver-
sive movement many well intentioned
people with heads as soft as their
hearts are drawn, while on the part
of the general public there is an omi-
nous indifference to the results which
if the teaching Of history is worth
anything, must bring the most serious
consequences.
In view Of these conditions, these
words Of President Hoover should be
read and re-read by every editor res
ponsible for the policy Of his publica-
ton, and by every citizen as well:
81 am wondering whether the time
has not come, however, to realize
that we are confronted with nation
al necessity of the first degree, that
we are not suffering from an eph-
emeral crime wave, but from a sub
sidence of our foundations.
POSSIBLY the time is at hand for
the press to Systematically demand
and support the reorganization of our
law enforcement machinery-federal,
state and local-so that crime may be
reduced, and on the other hand to
demand that our citizens shall awake
TO the fundamental consciousness of
democracy which is that the laws are
theirs and that every responsible
members of democracy has the
primary duty to obey the law.
ut is unnecessary for me to argue
the fact that the very essence of
freedom is obedience to law; that lib
erty itself has but one foundation,
and that is the law"
