Roadside Aid Stations.

England has q great roadside Red
Cross organization designed to take care
Of the great number Of road accidents
which take place on the highways. The
service is spread everywhere, its work
being on the main motoring roads. The
roadside aid posts are complete with
ambulances, dressing stations and first
aid staffs.
For their work, the road service have
in commission about $50 ambulances,
and the first-aid experts, both men and
women, number many thousands. Last
year the ambulances alone carried $500
road accident cases, while further
vast number Of people received expert
first-aid treatment at the roadside.
The wonderful thing about this or
ganization is the spirit behind it. Each
one of the first-aid volunteers, in addi-
ton to attending many lectures and
having to pass many examinations and
denominations gives his. or her time
and skilled assistance without pay or
material reward.
When the week ends come around the
unit of the road service go out to
dangerous points and plant themselves
there. While on duty they. put them
selves under strict discipline, just as
II they were at aid posts in the war.
The ambulance is in waiting, and the
dressing station complete with splints
and bandages and antiseptics Is set up.

WHEAT PRICES DROP

Speculators Take Bearish Position

CHICAGO. April 4.-General selling,
together with absence of buying sup
port, except on downturns. brought
about a sharp early setback in prices
today, both for wheat and corn. Con-
ditions for domestic Winter wheat
growth and for Spring seeding were fa-
vorable, and spectators led the selling
of wheat, but In corn the selling came
largely from holders. Opening Y to Il
cents OF, wheat later scored rallies.
Corn started u to - cent down, with
recoyeries lacking vigor. Oats were
easy. Provisions tended lower.
current today was reported from one
of the foremost authorities In the coun-
try. saying that at present Western
Kansas, which has often been uncer-
tain, has q better crop prospect than
usual on account of abundant subson
moisture. Other experts said the crop
outlook for Winter wheat, taking the
domestic belt as whole, could hardly
be improved. Meanwhile European de-
rnand overnight for wheat from North
America was disappointingly small,
although there were said to be nu-
rnerouS bids in the market at a couple
Of cents below current levels.
A comprehensive crop summary COW
ering Spring wheat territory said
Spring work was we'll under way In all
states. The general crop outlook for
Spring wheat in the American North
west was optimistic, and, with favorable
weather from now on, the wheat should
get good start. The Canadian drought
situation, however, was but little, II any,
improved.

CURB SPEC|ALT|ES

Some Groups Rally Despite
Heavy and Uncertain
= Market Tone.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK. April AIN exceedingly
dull trading, prices huctuated aimlessly
on the Curb Exchange today. Irregu-
larity characterized the dealings
throughout, with the trend reversing
itself frequently as the speculative ele-
ment shifted its position.
Selling Of the oils was less pro-
nounced. but the group continued to
display q heavy tone. Those stocks
which gave way most yesterday were
under further moderate pressure be-
cause of the difficulties encountered by
the induStry'S conservation program.
Most of the standard oils were under
the previous closing levels during most
OF today's session, while the inde-
pendents were also In supply. Imperial
OF Canada was weak.
A few stocks developed strong rally
ing power after early hesistancy. Sikor-
sky Aviation climbed almost ten points,
although there was no news to explain
its action. None of the other aero is
sues was much Influenced by that dis
play Of buoyancy. Cohn- Hall-Marx

better. including Goldman Sachs,
Trans-America, Haygart and Tri-Con-
tineptal Corporation.
Other stocks to meet with better
support included Trans-Lux, on the
news that the company had taken &C
ton against the News Projection Co.
to declare null and void the Proctor
patent used extensively by the latter
and under which an injunction was
obtained year ago. The suit Is based
upon charges that another was the real
inventor. Some demand came into Gen.
eral Realty & Utilities. which has
made commitments for new construc-
ton aggTegating $l5,000,000, including
. skyscraper In Boston.
Weakness was still spread over wide
list, the chief sufferers being Fajardo
Sugar, which broke sharply after recov-
ering at the opening: the mining and
metal issues, American Meter and
United Gas Improvement. Other util-
titles displayed moderate frmneSs.

Motors stock, which investment was
greatly augmented In 1870 by addi-
tional purchases. Since about per cent
OF du Points total sales were to General
Motors, 1t was to be expected that a
community OF interests would prove
beneficial.
Many stock split-ups Of both General
Motors and du Pont have taken place
since the original investment, but to-
day the du Pont Co. owns 22.94 per
cent Of 9,980,O00 shares of the total
amount Of General Motors common out
standing.
The Importance Of these holdings to
du Pont stockholders Is apparent when
one realizes that behind each share OF
du Pont there Is more than one share
Of General Motors. Since du Points
earnings only include the dividends paid
| by General Motors, not its proportionate
share in undistributed earnings, IL Is i'm
portant TO observe that while General
Motors contributed something like $3.50
to the $5.97 earned by du Point last
year, undistributed earnings Of Genera
Motors, had they been included, woulc
Pont earnings were actually over 50 q
share.
The du Point Co., by being in very
strong cash position, has thus been ablt
to make advantageous investments
which continue to benefit its stockhold,
ers. Reported earnings on present stool
have risen from about 81 cents a shar,
in 1922 to $5.97 last year, averaging
$2.72 share for that period. From
this point Of view the stock may seen
to be bringing too high price, since
the dividend Is only 81 and the yielc
only a. per cent. But the value of on,
share Of General Motors must be con.

NEW YORK, April 4.--Many indus
tries are attempting to claim this their
aage" in history. For example, we are
told that we are now in the iron. cop
per, electrical or any other age, de-
pending upon the interests Of the in
fornart. There is probably no indus
try, however, that has better claim
to such distinction than the chemical
industry.
It Il impossible to view any phase
Of industry without being aware OF the
wide application Of chemistry to In
6ustrial problems. In recent years the
chemical industry has not only made
rapid progress In cheapening basic
chemicals long used In inanufacturing
processes, but also has made many new
and valuable products from raw ma
terials which were formerly believed
Of no use.
No industry has played more inn
portant part In conserving natural re-
sources or adding to the luxuries OF
life. Artificial silk, artificial leather.
lacquer finishes for automobiles, safety
glass, artificial fertilizers are few OF

are being made daily to every branch

PEN That Lincoln Used.

The recent sale at auction of O pen
purporting 10 be the implement used
by President Lincoln when he signed
the emancipation proclamation has
brought to light Tires other pens for
which the same hOn0f Is claimed. One
Is owned by Mrs. Stuart Pritchard Of
Battle Greek, Mich. Another was sold
in Philadelphia few years ago. The
third one, recently offered for sale, is
backed by the affidayit Of Louis Berg
dorf, who was White House messenger
at the time, and he says he held the
precious document while the President
signed It, and week later he was given
the pen and the table upon which the
signing was done By the President. The
fourth pen exists somewhere in the
Western part Of this country. The
Philadelphia pen referred to above e
said to have been given BY Charles A.
sumner of Lincolre cabinet to james
Wormiey, B Negro who owned and oper-
ated the WorIaley Hotel ii Washington

In the future.
Allied Chemical
The Allied Chemical q Dye Corpora
ton Is one of the largest chemical COM
In 1920 as a combination of several
smaller companies specializing IN Diff
ferent branches of the industry. The
combined interests now produce acids,
alkalis, soda, coke and its by-products,
coal tar products, dyestuffS and many
other chemicals. The company Is now
building tremendous nitrogen fxation
plant at Hopewell, Va, which will cost
$120, 100000 and will be capable of
caring for the nitrogen needs Of the
country in peace or war time. This
venture has been hailed as the most
important advance the industry has
made in recent years.
In judging Allied Chemical the In
weston is under great disadvantage.
The company, evidently having become
used to keeping its chemical processes
secret, has carried that policy into Its
relations to the stockholders, for 1t re-
ports only once q year, and those re-
ports are rather meager. It has been
believed for some time that the COM
pany could show very much larger
earnings If 1t cared to. The earnings
reported, however, understated though
they may be, are sufficiently high to in
dictate q financial strength rivaled by
few companies.
Financial Strength.
Allied Chemical has no bank or bond
ed indebtedness and o relatively small
issue Of per cent cumulative preferred
ahead Of the common. 1t is anticipated
that the preferred will eventually be re-
tired. with SIS, 0O0, 900 In cash and $685.
000, 900 in securities, the company is in
a very strong financial condition. 1t Is
rumored that the market value Of its
securities is well above $50, 000, 900 in
stead of the $83, 000, 900 shown. There
Is some talk of forming q securities
company as q separate entity to handle
the company's securities. The fact that
the $3.50, 000, 900 Hopewell plant is to be
financed by earnings alone Is evidence
of the company's great financial
strength.
In spite of the fact that the price Of
chemicals has been constantly reduced,
Ailied's earnings have risen steadily.
They have averaged $8.51 in the last

losses Of about 8 to IA points during
