BOND MARKET HAS
 QUIET FIRM TREND
Railroad Issues Continue Their
 Upward Movement Today

New York, July "A LR - A firm trend was maintained by the listed bond market in quiet trading today. The market was featureless, but the upward movement of high grade railroad and utility issues contin- ued.
 Approximately s10,oOo,oo0 in new financing was offered today. They included $7,o00,o0o Mississippi Power and Light Company, five per cent bonds, a $2,500.000 five per cent issued by the government of New Foundland, and $510,000 of fered by Arlington County, Va, carrying an interest rate of 4 1-2 per cent. In bond circles. 1t is ex- pected that the Pacific Gas and Electric Company s5O,000.000 issue will be offered next week. and the prospect develops that utility com- panies will take advantage of the strong position of the market to float large volume of loans during the next few months, a s20,000,000 issue of the Hudson Bay Power Company, is another large piece of financing expected soon.
 Bonds Go Up
 One of the prominent factors in the continued upswng of bonds is commented upon by the federal re- serve board in it's monthly review, showing the extent to which banks have increased their holdings of in vestmonts. The increased holdings amounted in the period from March F to June 25 to s550,000,000, and the situation was changed since last October when the investment DOT folio vas at the lowest level since 1927.
 Banks are taking fixed income securities off the market as fast as possible without stimulating a marked advance in prices. In the meantime, a great volume of idle money accumulates, which bond men feel, sooner or later, must be turned to fixed income securities.
 Prime railroad and foreign bonds provided most of the activity today. Big Four 41ss. Great Northern Is, New York Central 5s, Pennsylvania 5s. Nickel Plate 411s were marked upward. French issues were ex- tenslvely accumulated in the foreign list, with other European govern ments holding firm.

R0TARIANS SEND
 , BOYS ID CAMP
Collection Successful - New Membership Plan Discussed

Five boys, members of the Boys club, were enabled to go to the Boy Scout camp for one week as a re- suit of a collection taken up at the meeting of the Rotary club last Thursday, according to a report made by pr. L. E. Dary, chairman of the boys work committee, to President Henry Washburn at the luncheon today.
 MT. Washburn announced that the new district governor will speak to the club on August 21.
 It was announced that recogni- tion of 100 per cent attendance rec ords would be made in the near fu- ture. o. Lambert Lord and A. A. Mills have attended a Rotary club meeting once week for nine years without exception.
 President Washburn discussed at some length the attendance problem which bothers all clubs. He favors adhering strictly to the rule of dropping members who do not at tend meetings.
 A system in use by another club was exhibited by the president. with the comment that it would bear some consideration here.
 The system is based on 8 set of four colored cards. When mem- Der misses a meeting he receives through the mail yellow card, say ing, we missed you last week at Rotary"
 If he misses two meetings in suc- cession, he receives a green card: "Caution-We missed you the last two meetings"
 If he misses three meetings in succession, red card goes into the mails, as follows: 'Danger-Your membership in Rotary is in danger"
 If he still is numbered among the absent without reasonable excuse the following meeting, he gets a white card with a black mourning border, and the comment: "Cond did our best to keep you in Rotary" The man is dropped and his case is settled.
 MT Washburn said he did not be- leve in carrying men on the rolls who were not interested in the club and were blocking the classi- fcation for some one else. The mat ter was discussed at meeting of directors following the luncheon.
 A motion picture, The Fall Guy" was shown.

 Several teeth were knocked from the diners mouth and he brought suit against the officer, Larnonte and the two proprietors, He asked s3,- U00 damages.
 Attorney Alpert was able to con- vince Plaszczuk, the plaintiff, that the proprietors of the restaurant, not present. and knowing nothing about the accident, could have no blame attached to them, so the action against them was withdrawn. The action is still on the city court calendar against Keogh and La monte.
