ment of his vast enterprises. He
will continue, however, to keep
a parental eye on his offsprings-
his son and business-as chair
man Of the board Of J. G. White
81 Co., Inc.
The sorl-James Dugald White
today was installed as president.
He has been in training for his
new duties for II years as a vice
president.
Minister'S Son
The elder White will be SO in
August. He was born in the
little Pennsylvania town of Milroy,
the son of a Presbyterian min.
lister. His father in preparing him
for a career Of teaching sent the
boy to Pennsylvania State Col
lege. There in 1882 u. G." re-
ceived his A. B. degree and two
years later his masters degree.
White transferred to Cornell Uni
verSity to complete his course and
received his doctor of philosophy
degree.
Armed with these three degrees
White embarked upon his career.
There was an opening as in.
structor in physics in charge Of
the department at the University
of Nebraska. He took the job and
stayed with it two years.
Soon after becoming i:::-salled
at the university, White met
Maude Mullon. They were mar
ried in Lincoln on December is,
1885. The urge to make more
money must have become very
strong at this time. for White the
next year went with the Western
Engineering Company as presi-
dent. He built street Car lines
throughout the Middle West and
in 1890 he became associated with
the Edison United Manufacturing
Company. That same year he
came on to New York and estab-
lished his own contracting and
engineering business.
In Banking Field
The original j. g. White & Co.
has now become an investment
banking house, controlling j. G..
White Engineering Corp, which
carries on the engineering and
construction work, and j. G..
White & Co.. Ltd, Of London, an
investment banking as well as en-
gineering company. Among the
White engineering projects are
the Baltimore street car railway
system and the Ocee Dam in Ten
nessee. The company has a con-
tract to build a $40, 900, 900 dam
across the Blue Nile near Lake
Tsana in AbySSinia.

Brokers Declare Market
Due to Remain Dull

The following is the comment
of leading Wall Street finaNcial
houses on the condition of the
stock market at the present time
Feel that the market has begun
to reach a point Of stabiliZation
and the current rally will carry
prices higher. We also believe
that purchases of the active issues
may be made as dips develop
BABCOCK, RUSHTON & CO.
For the present we expect to
see continuation of the back
ing and filling process of recent
days, with a moderate down
trend chiefly in evidence.-UN
GERLTEDER & CO.
Better Support Seen
While we do not think any sus-
tanned advance is possible at this
time, we do think that better
support will be offered the good
issues above their lowest levels
HARRIS g. VOSE.
A continuation of the two-sided
traders market is to be expected.
The current rally affords an op-
portunity TO strengthen overex-
tended positionS.-ROBBINS IL
co.
We would be more inclined to
sell than to buy stocks on any
further bulge, because we believe
the recovery is only technical in
character and that more favora-
BILE buying opportunities will be
presentaed later in the week.
SUTRO & co.
The rally should be continued
through the morning session, with
prospect that the buying will end
then and prices tend to hold to
current levels or sag.-STERN &
co.
Further Ris Forecast
We think there will be enough
short selling on advances to keep
the market in strong technical
condition.-TOBEY & KIRK.
A general feeling of bearishness
and an oVersold condition indi-
Gated, it seems to us that the
market is due for a recovery last
ing several days, if for no other
reason than technical one
ORVIS BROS.
Would not buy on strength,
but would place bids under the
market, and if executed, imme-
diately place selling orders at
reasonable figures. 1t is easy to
overstay the long side at present.

We feel that the leaders may
be bought on reactions near
yesterdays close, but would &C.

coveries near Fridays tops

The chances are that any re-
covery at this time will be almost

prompt attention. 1t points out that
every method readily available should
be utilized to facilitate recruiting and
the physical examinations of applicants
for enlistment. In localities where there
Is no regular Navy or Naval Reserve
medical officer available, the bureau
points out, the department has upon
occasion authorized temporary training
duty with pay and mileage for Re-
serve medical officers for the purpose of
recruiting this class of the Reserve.
However, this has been done only when
the number of recruits was sufficient to
warrant the expense involved. The
bureau is willing to consider requests
for such duty if other arrangements in
volving no expense cannot be made But
this counts against the districts's train
ing quota for officers and the mileage
against the districts allotment of the
Reserve appropriation
In localities where Naval Reserve
medical officers are located, the de-
partment says, their services should be
made available to commanding officers
of the Communication Reserve, for the
examination of applicants. In cities
where divisions of the feet Naval Re-
serve are established ARRANGEMENTS
should be made by coinmandants so
that applicants desiring to enlist in
the communications branch may be ex-
amined by the fleet Naval Reserve

medical officers during the regular drill
nights of such divisions.
Investigation has shown the bureau
that few districts have made little or
no progress in the recruiting or organ-
ization of this branch. The belief is
expressed by the department that sue
cessful expansion and organization de-
ponds largely upon the initiative of the
communications officers detained to such
duty, and urges naval commandments to
make special efforts TO select officers
for this duty who are in position to de-
vote time and effort to this END.
In order to interest men who are af-
fliated with amateur radio activities,
it is desirable to detail Communica-
tons Reserve officers of similar affilia-
lions to duty in charge of sections or
unit that will be made up principally
of amateur personnel. Commercial radio
operators, the bureau ACIDS, can be in
terested more successfully through
Communications Reserve officers en-
plOyed by the commercial commun1ca-
ton companies.
AS a suggestion, the Navigation Blu
reau points out that it has been found
desirable, as an initial step toward or
ganization in any given locality, to
establish first skeleton organization
consisting OF Communications Reserve
officer authorized to administer oaths
for recruiting the Naval Reserve and a
Naval Reserve medical officer. When
this has been done, recruiting can pro-
coed without serious difficulty.
Lieut.. Henry L. Shenier is scheduled
to take his examination tomorrow for
designation as a deck officer of the Re-
serve. His present commission. it was
said, limits him to engineering duties.

Trapping Vagrant Cats.

The army of vagrant cats is much
greater than most persons think,
for the reason that the animals
are out of sight during the daytime
and do most of their prowling at night.
But when they are out of sight the
chances are that they are working in
some quiet fields catching birds and
animals that really have some economic
value. The stray cat has none and
they take a toll on the song birds, in
sectivorous birds and small animals
which are beneficial to mankind The
United States Department of Agricul-
ture recommends trapping and destroy
ing these animals. In a recent leaf1et
the details for the construction of
simple trap are given. In 18 months
SO stray cats were caught in one trap
in one city suburb. In another larger
city 100000 stray cats were caught
and put to death by humane society
in four yeaTNs

While the appropriations provided by
Congress have been sufficient to carry
along the same number of feet divt-
sions last year, the chief of Naval Oper-
atoms says that additional funds will
be required to enable the department
to increase the authorized quotas OF
the divisions as well as to establish such
additional divisions as may be neces-
sary in order to fulfill the mission of
the Naval Reserve.
The quotas of enlisted men author
lied for each division remain the same,
he reported. The plan of cruising the
majority of the fleet divisions on de-
stroyers and light mine layers of the
feet was followed with satisfactory re-
suits Two guns crews from each
division so cruising were permitted to
fire a gun target practice under the
same requirements as last year, and the
results were said to be very creditable,
He points out that the Naval Reserve
personnel is keenly interested in these
gunnery exercises, and in addition to
the valuable training they afford they
also aid materially in building up the
morale of the organization.
Those divisions assigned as mobiliza-
ton stations, to vessels other than de-
stroyers and light mine layers, cruised on
the Great Lakes on vessels regularly as
signed to the ninth naval district for
the training of Naval Reserves.
He says that aviation facilities have
been provided for the use of Reserve
aviation squadrons and separate divi-
sions at the Reserve aviation bases.
Organizations contiguous to naval air
stations have been assigned facilities
there. Warrants to fly the Merchant
Marine Naval Reserve flag have been
issued to 81 vessels of the American
