grand and comic. No jest in that
but a wise selection of the type Of
entertainment.
Chicago mas its Ravinia with its
grand opera presenting stars of such
magnitude that it makes one wish to
be able to be there every minute.
The wealth of this city as we'll as
the parks should give us more than
just swimming, golf, a safe retreat
for the children, a park bench in
which to sleep and read want ads
and a dash of beauty here and
there.
Indianapolis is big enough to have
summer music. We can not pay the
hlls for a symphony or for opera.
Those who have the cash to promote
know that 1t is dangerous to have
summer stock. Ask Stuart Walker
or Charles Berkeli
There will be a force in this city
one of these days with enough
strength to use the parks to meet
the demands of all people.
I do not mean a cheaply presenta-
ton of alleged stock as was done in
city parks years ago. I mean the
modern step in the right idea of CIV
ing this city a program of summer
entertainment
This can be done and it is not
an idle dream.
Music to a certain point is secure
in Indianapolis this fall and winter.
It should not perish in the sum-
mer. And I do not mean band con-
certs.
The most interesting thing of the
week was the number of women in
this city who are the mothers of at
least seven children This discovery
came about because Manager Col
Inns of the Apollo wanted to invite
the mothers Of seven children to see
Belle Bennett in Courage" In this
picture Miss Bennett is the mother
of seven children. Collins asked me
to announce his invitation. The re-
suit was that we were actually
swamped with so many letters. Even
after Courage" closed on Wednes-
day night, many letters were re-
ceived. 1t certainly was interesting
to find so many large families.
In answer to very old question
I have not changed my opinion re-
garding legitimate shows in this city
next season. They will go to the
Murat theater. That theater is be-
ing redecorated. 1t gives us a mod
ern theater Even maybe ice water
and other accommodations. Indian
apolis has the right to have a mod
ernly equipped legitimate theater
to match at least IN some ways the
elegance Of the movie theaters.

STRICKEN STOCKS
 SHOW RECOVERY
Changing Sentiment Towards
 Foreign Bonds Evidenced

New York, Sept. A LP - The changing sentiment of American in- vestors toward foreign obligations was further apparent in the bond market today. European and South American issues of countries where the political situation caused sharp recessions to new lows for the year, benefited from the buying and moved upward in conjunction with the domestic section.
 The metamorphosis which was evident in the about face of some key issues in the German list yes- terday appeared fairly well estab- lished. The whole foreign section showed a firm tone, and the sharp bidding for German bonds indicated that buyers felt the decline had | been carried too far.
 German governments were strong, both the Is and 515s gaining a point or more, the former rising from it's years low reached yesterday. Leip- zig Sinking Fund Is and German ] Consolidated Agricultural Loan 6H s registered advances of a point or more, German Agricultural bank is , sues which were among those that bore the brunt of the selling firmed Italian Is which were weak in yes- terday's session, and several Italian municipals moved upward. About the only important bond in the Latin-American group to be sold was the Argentine of '5S. Peruvian and Chilean issues steadied.
 Announcement was made of the sale of s50,000,000 one year notes of the Argentine government to a New York syndicate which will be offered tomorrow. The notes will pay off existing obligations due Octo- Der 1. There was only one offering of any consequence today, a muni- cipal issue.
 The recent pressure on foreign dollar bonds has caused some specu- lation in financial circles as to what effect it will have on further foreign financing this year. Several issues are known to be under considera- tion, but syndicates have urged that their appearance be postponed until conditions are more favorable.
 Small gains continue to be made by domestic bonds. Turnover in some of the market leaders indicates that the supply has become limited, and cautious attitude is apparent in the purchases made by institu- tions Central Railroad of New Jer- sey As, Rock Island As, Erie 5s of 1875, Great Northern 1-2s, Mis- souri Pacific 5 1-2s, New Haven Debenture As, Pennsylvania 5s, War ren 1-2s, and Union Pacific 1st 4s were among the railroad issues in demand.

Vigorous Selling Movement Gets Under Way After Noon Dragging
 Quotations Down to Lower Level
Reaction Coincides With Renewed Weakness in Wheat and Unfavorable News About Dividends.

New York, Sept. A tP) - Stock market bears demonstrated forceful- ly today that their claws still are sharp A vigorous selling move ment launched just after noon when prices were worked slowly upward n | response to an improvement in steel production figures, carried quotations down swiftly until yesterdays gains had been more than lost and sev- eral leaders, including |. s. Steel had broken to new lows for the re- action.
 The selling came uneXpecte edly. 1t conceded with the renewed weakness in wheat with publication of a state ment that there was no prospect of an increased dividend or an extra on American Can. Circulation of a rumor that such a move was likely started short covering in the last hour yesterday but the withdrawal or this prop apparently led profess slonal shorts to reconsider their po- sition.
 There were reports that collateral on security loans in response to pressure from high sources.
 Spectacular declines appeared in special stocks. Vanadium broke about Ia points and Air Reduction and Foster Wheeler between g and 10. Westinghouse and Auburn Auto dropped :. United States Steel, h. ternational Harvester, Radio, East man Kodak. American Water Works American and Foreign Power, Anaconda and Atchison lost 3 to f. American Smelling, Johns Manville. Warrington Pump Case and Houston Oil broke six or more.
 A three per cent rise in the Iron Age steel production ratio, bring ing it to siXty-one per cent of theo- retical capacity, attracted attention especially in quarters which had been seeking relief from the dismal rumors and news of the past week. The trade paper said improvement In iron and steel demand was sus- tained and that prices had stiffen- ed, although future commitments were more largely responsible for the gain than were orders for cur rent shipment. Earlier in the month" continued the review and probably also in August raw steel production was a step ahead of fin ishing requirements. With this dis parity removed, further increases in finished steel business should find quicker reflection in steel furnace operations"
 Railroads and automobile manu- lecturers continue to make inquiry. Freight car loadings for the week ending September 13 showed a gain of 109,076 cars over the preceding week. which had included the Labor day period, but the total was still the lowest for any corresponding week since 1922.
 Reductions in gasoline prices, al- though doubtless rehecting price wars" in numerous localities. were also interpreted as means to stim- ulate consumption at period when seasonal demand is tapering off. There was a decline of 572,000 barrels in the week ended Septem- Der 20. Call money was easy, at 2 per cent Rates on some maturities of time money were further re- duced.

Wheat and Corn Score
 Advances After Slump

Chicago. Sept. 24 P}-Wheat and corn values both scored early ad- yances here today after March and May deliveries of wheat had touched new low price records. Initial de- olines in Chicago were largely a re- flection of downturns in quotations at Liverpool, where Russian and Canadian grain was reported press- irg for an outlet. On the other hand, future delivery offerings of wheat in Chicago lacked volume on price setbacks, and it was pointed cut that Russian exports of even as much as 50,000,000 bushels would rot satisfy European importers re- quirements for one month.
 Opening at $4 off to lsc up, Chi cago wheat afterward sagged little more, and then rose all around to above yesterdays finish. Corn start ed 14-1 13c lower, but subsequently, advanced.

 Committed to stand by the out come of the November prohibition referendum, Mrs. Mccormick a dry. loosed a broadside of 19 ques- tions at Mrs. O'Neill and her sup porter, the anti-saloon league.
 She asked the league if fits can- didate" would ignore the will of the people" if the referendum should favor repeal or modification of the dry law.
 She asked if ''the anti-majority- rule party" as she terms Mrs. O'Neil's supporters, admits that there is a liquor problem in the United States, and, if so why does it not propose a solution"
 Teh league was taken to task in Mrs. Mccormick examination for opposing the referendum and she wanted to know:--
 If the referendum is properly called wet referendum why does the dripping wet democratic plat form condemn it?
 If the referendum is wet why does the w. C. T. L. appeal to it's members to vote in that refer endum?"
