BRINGS REPLY

NEW YORK, July 10 1NS0,
Suspension today from the New
York Stock Exchange for three
years of James H. McGean, floor
member of Sutro & Co., of A
Wall St., brought a statement
from Sutro & Co. that the
charges on which the action of
the stock exchange were based
were wholly in connection with
transactions in branch office,
and this branch office was in
charge of a partner who has re-
signed recently from the firm.
Another statement issued by a
second brokerage firm with
similar name, Sutro Brothers &
Co., of 120 Broadway, announced
that it had no connection with
the suspended firm.
The charges leading to the
suspension by the governing com.
mittee of the stock exchange
were that through the manner in
which the branch of Sutro & Co.
was conducted, transactions to
buy and to sell the same security
were executed at the same time
and at the same price, and in
opinion of the governing COM
mittee did not involve a change
of ownership.
Sutro & Co. have retired as
members of the clearing house
and Logan 81 Bryan will assume
their open exchange contracts.

Says Reduction of. InVer
tories Brought. Change
NV Holm e. NEYIN, ir.

A clear track for revival Of
tagging business and definite
starting Of an upswing in the
commercial trend is assured in
the latest issue of the American
Bankers Association Journal, of.
ficial publication Of the associa-
ton. The article cites previous
periods of depression and points
out that developments during the
past few weeks will bring about
the new trend.
For many months business has
been suffering from series of
headaches" and declines in the
stock market also aided to push
commerce and trade lower. For
the first time definite statement
attributable to the banking ele-
ment has appeared which was Of
optimistic trend.
Cheer Leading
OF course, there have been
numerous statements of good
times and prosperity during the
slump, but these have been
mainly of the "cheer-leader type
and have had little effect.
The Journals report showed
that there was -curtailment of pro-
duction in many lines of enter
prise far in excess of the public
demand which had brought about
a marked reduction in the inven.
tories of finished goods Reduc-
ton of the inventories and the
unwillingneSs of merchants to
carry large lines has aided in the
Stabilization of business and will
aid it in its recovery, the state
ment declared.
Public Demand
Continued heavy demand by
the buying public, which has
just appeared in the markets, IT
was pointed out, will force a
recovery that will care for the
Embellishments of the period of
depression which business has
been going through.

Maternity Bill

BIZ Scripps- Hou1rd Newspaper Altgnce
WASHINGTON, Nov. 14.-Re-
newal of the mother and baby saw
ing campaign Uncle Sam began In
1921 under the Sheppard-Towner
act is to be advocated at the De-
cember congress by the League OF
Women Voters.
The Sheppard-Towner act, giving
81, 900 900 annually Of federal money
to be matched by states, for ma
ternity and infancy care, ran for
seven years. In June, 1929, the act
automatically terminated and efforts
to re-enact it at the last session
failed. The Cooper Robson bill,
now before committees Of both
houses, probably will be urged by
the women.
According to Miss Marguerite M.
Wells, Minneapolis, acting president
of the National League, the exact
measure the league will support has
not been determined, but a general
resumption of the work of federal
aid will be demanded.

rouge high up on the cheek bones
just beneath the eyes and close to
the nose. Thus, added length IS
required.
THE long face requires its rouge
i applied low on the face, and
over rather large surface. 1t
should be deepest on the lower part
Of the cheeks and lighter toward the
temple.
If you aren't sure just what type
of face you have. locate your nat
ural color and let it guide you IN
placing rouge. To do this battle
the face for a minute or two in very
hot water and press your face, still
hot. into it.
Watch your color while your face
is drying. incidentally this meth
cd will aid you, in determining the
shade Of color best suited to you.
Fill the cheeks with air, giving a
balloon effect, before applying rouge
and you will secure much more
even effect.
Cream rouge give more lasting
and natural result than compact
rouge. 1t should be applied with the
third finger of the right hand in
three small dots which form a tri-
angle. The second finger is nee
essary to blend it.
n
IF YOU have a dinlple in the
L chin a daub of rouge in its
center will intensity it. A touch Of
rouge should appear on the lobes
of the ears, if they show, especially
in the evening.
If your eyes are large and bright
you can rouge very brilliantly.
Smaller, softer eyes can't stand
so much. It will detract from their
beauty.
Rouging the chin shortens a
very long face, and touch Of pink
on the lobes of the ears narrows
wide face.
Since red raspberry rouge is
easiest to wear, as rule, you will
be safe in choosing it, unless you
have a very fair skin or a very
brunei skin.
Geranium shades suit the fair
skins and brunei rouge is made es-
pecially for women with rich glow
ing coloring.
