washington, Jan. is. - CopiapO
Chile, is surrounded by inland noun
tains. The city has been unheard Of
in North America since its last big
earthquake. 1t was reached by your
correspondent only through accident
It is capital nf q whole Chilean prov
nee and populated by no more thar
5000 souls.
Copiapo occupies the area of a
modern American city eight or ten
times as large. Built almost exclu-
sively Of one-story buildings, the
great majority of adobe and thatch
construction, and with frightful
streets which will soon be paved for
the first time, Copiapo is surely typi-
cal of hundreds of towns of similar
size in Latin America which the
Hoover party could not visit on its
tour. Your correspondent spent "a
hours in Copiapo, consorting with
the single American resident.
Copiapo, like the larger Latin
American cities, is becoming mod
crnized-as must the innumerable
Copiapos in this part of the world.
Disastrous earthquakes may have
helped her; reconstruction work has
always shown little more progress
over the styles and customs of the
year 1910, when the Spaniards
founded Copiapo.
There's Rotary Club in Copiapo
and it lunches once a week. Unable
to count them. your correspondent
was told that there were also some
200 automobiles. 1t costs $1,000 to
get a new Ford here, so it was no
surprise to see couple of local fam
lilies driving in Chevrolet with a
uniformed chauffeur.
Copiapo's school girls wear white
middies and blue skirts, bobbing
their hair or not, as they choose. The
town supports two movie theaters-
three before the last fatal earth
quake. Occasionally they show a
Chilean film, but they're nearly al
ways American. Many Copiapans
get excited about them; here a hiss
may mean anything, as often as not
a purr of contentment. Not

REGISTER DECLINE
Decrease in Values Occurs
Despite Drop in Call
Money Rate.
BY CHARLES F. SPEARE.
ial Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, January A market
as eccentric as the present one may be
expected to act against, normally ruling
influences as it did today when, with
money easier high grade bonds declined
although they had gone up with money
rates at higher level earlier In the
week.
This may have been more in antici-
patton of firmer discount rates next
week even though rates for call money
may be lower. the one circumstance af-
fecting bond prices more than the other.
Whatever it was, there was dis
tinctly softer tone in high-grade bond
issues, including Governments, legal
rails and public utilities, and in some of
the municipals. 1t is quite possible too
that the demand which came into the
market in the early part of the week
had been temporarily satisfied.
Not only we're the high quality issues
heavy, but also number of the Junior
grades. including the Az and 5 per
cent rails and some of the per cent
industrials. Again the volume of trad
ing was small, which limits the i'm
portance of the price trend as gauge
of investment conditions.
The convertibleS were under the in
fluence of an irregular stock market.
Except for Public Service of New Jersey
Abs. which continued TO make high
records. there was nothing notable in
this group. j. Kayser 5l2s gained 2
points, Anaconda rs lost 3l2 early, but
later showed a net advance, while
others were from u to a point lower,
and Abraham g. Straus 5l2s nearly 3
points. The speculative traction issues
were heavy.
The Italian convertibles showed losses
of / to 3 points. There was not much
change in the general foreign list. The
largest advance in the South American
group was in Uruguay 6s, which rose
point. Some of the French issues were
up and others down. The same was
true of the Belgian, German and Japa-
nese descriptions.
This weeks issues of bonds, amount
ing to less than $50,000,000, make a
sharp contrast with year ago, but fol-
low out the tendency that has been
becoming more pronounced since last
June, and which resulted in decrease
of between 25 and 80 per cent In the
total offerings of bonds and notes in
1928, compared with 1927.

NEW YORK, January 4.-Within the
last few years great quantities Of stocks
have been removed from the market
and put into individual safe deposit
boxes The feeling that common stocks
are safe long term investments has
taken the country by storm.
Turn to Fundamentals.
It is we'll, perhaps, that along with this
movement there has been a crystalllza-
ton of thought as to what constitutes
good investment. The small investor
who formerly was tempted into tly-by-
night stock business schemes has found
that the country's leaders will actually
give him something more than promises.
The lure of wild cat oil common has
lost some of its appeal and investors
today are placing their savings in such
basic issues as United States Steel or
General Electric. The average investor
today believes that the future Is well
taken care of If he spreads his savings
over a broad enough list.
Investing for Business Men.
One of the most valuable contribu-
tionS to investment thought has been
made by the SOB investment advisers
who participated in a contest which
Barrons Weekly held some time ago,
advising business man how to lnVeSJ
his savings amounting to 100000.
While the plans fit only one particular
case, they clearly point out certain prln-
ciples which every investor should fol-
low.
The average recommendation was that
the business man put 37.4 per cent IN
bonds, 1872 per cent in railroad stocks,
PTS per cent in industrials, 1915 per
cent in public utilities, 6 per cent IN
bank and insurance stocks and Al per
cent in preferred stocks.
While each of the advisers recon-
mended different specific lists, the same
stocks were often suggested many times.
The As common stocks which were
recommended most frequently are
shown below 1t is commonly known
that investment demand from both prl-
yate individuals and investment trusts
is taking large quantities of such GER
tificates out Of the market permanently.
Today this is recognized as one OF the
major factors influencing the trend OF
stock prices.
Typical Investment Stocks.
The prices of most of these stocks
have risen steadily during the past year.
The percentage increases from January
| to December 81 are shown. The
stocks are listed in order of popularity,

HOOVERRET|RES
MAYFLOWER

Taking into consideration the
fact that the presidential yacht
Mayflower involves an annual out
lay of 100000 for upkeep and that
it's crew of 1S1 can be used to
supply more effectively the needs
of the Navy, President Hoover yes
terday directed the Secretary of the
Navy to decommission the ship.
The President decided to forego
the pleasure of his yacht for fish
ing on the Potomac River and
Chesapeake Bay when he was told
that the Navy must increase its
personnel. Because of the scant ap-
propriations available, he felt that
the Mayflower could well be placed
on the retired list, the statement
said.
The crew of the Mayflower are
to be assigned to the cruisers now
nearing completion, and the $780,
900 annual upkeep for the yacht
diverted to pay for more enlisted
men.
The Mayflower is a veteran of
the Spanish.American War, once a
flagship OF Admiral Dewey, hero

PRISON
By KENNETH CLARK

In an isolated mountain com.
munity near Anderson, w. Va, the
Federal, government is conducting
n great humanitarian experiment
in the rehabilitation Of drug ad-
diets.
There at the Federal industrial
institution for women, a pet prof.
ect of Mrs. Mabel Walker Willie
brandt, assistant attorney general,
addiction is regarded as disease
and an effort is being made tc ef-
feet permanent cure through
individual treatment.
The institution has approximately
SIS inmates, of which nearly 10
per cent are addicts. The drugs
most used by these women were
morphine, cocaine, heroin and
opium.
Drugs Withdrawn
Upon admittance, the drug is
withdrawn from the addict, but
in extreme cases compensatory
treatments are given, such as
baths. and injections of non-hablt
forming sedatives. Each addict is
closely guarded and given indi-
vidual medical care. The results have
been gratifying to the authorities.
Psychology plays an important
part in the treatment. While
physical cure is possible there is
always a danger the addict, when
released, will revert through men.
tai disturbance.
This institution may furnish
pattern for the two Federal mar
.cotic farms authorized in the last
Congress. DIR. Walter L. Tread
way, of the Public Health Service,
who is in charge Of the plans for
the farms, has inspected Anderson
and will visit other institutions
where addicts are treated before
determining upon the methods to
be utilized at the two farms.
In describing addiction treat
ments at Anderson, the superln'
tendent said: :,
For drug addiction, the medical
treatment is based 1on a study of
the needs Of the individual patient,
for here, If anywhere, there Is
need. for individualization.
Treated AS Disease
"a regimen may be established for
the majority of cases, but there
should always be account taken of
the attending symptoms of the in
dividual, as in any other disease.
when we consider the great varia.
ton in the etiology of drug addic-
tion, the infinite environmental and
physical background which is never
the same in two cases, individualiza-
tion of treatment seems the only
rational approach to this difficult
problem. Prolonged after-care under
close observation, healthy outdoor
occupation, a full program of work,
study and recreation tending to
build up new interests and habits
Of thought must all be part of the
program and be continued long after
the physical craving has ceased,
IL there is to be a permanent
cure
"All these must be matters of
individual study. and readjustment
should be made in the program from
time to time. as new ambition is
aroused"

PARIS, March % (t.N.s.).-
Solemn thousands again lined
the length of the Rue de Gren-
ellie in silence for an oppor-
tunity to pay homage to Mar
shal Ferdinand Foch, whose
body lies in state in his home
in that street.
Long before the doors Of the
home of the late marshal were
opened at 10 a. m. today to permit
the first In line to enter, the street
was filled with a sombre throng.
Those in the highest stations Of
life mingled with clerks and stenog-
raphers. Here and there in the
crowd was a youngster standing
patiently and waiting to be allowed
to pay his last respects.
Not all in the waiting line were
French. People of many nationali-
ties, among them many Americans,
were noted.

Madame Foch is bearing up
bravely under her loss. Despite her
deep sorrow she personally received
many of the more distinguished
visitors who came to express their
sympathy.
Although the French government
wished to accord the late marshal
the supreme honor of burial under
the Arch of Triumph, where lies
the Unknown Hero. his family stated
that as a devout Catholic he could
not be buried there as the ground
Is not consecrated.
The Marshal'S body, therefore,
