The People Speak

Many pinned yesterdays re-
action on the Democratic sweep
at the polls and the prospect Of
d Congress hostile to President
Hoover's policies in the closing
half Of his Administration. Yet
this sounds more like q conven-
lent excuse than anything else.
The new Congress won't convene
for over a year, and it certainly
is long range gamble to sell
stocks now because Of what may
happen.
what is more likely that stocks
are simply going down because
the supply is greater than the de-
mand and that somebody must
sell. Scale buying continues but
not in sufficient volume to stem
the decline. It seems now that
the market will have to find a
level where more people want TO
huy than to sell before any turn
can be anticipated.
The brokers' loan report today
will show the extent Of the
liquidation Of the past week. It
seems likely that another de-
cline will be witnessed. Loans,
however, aren't factor Of any
great significance now except as
q weekly indication Of the course
of the deflation.

Utilities
The utilities were freely sold,
many sinking to new lows 1or
the year. Perhaps the election
had something to do with this,
for officials that are avowedly
'chostiIe" to the present rates
charged by power and light COM
panies were elected in New York
pennsylvania and Illinois. How
ever, it must be remembered that
legislation can only go so tar,
and that the utilities have the
confiscation plea if the cuts are
made too drastic. -,
In addition, lower rates Will
tend to increase consumption, as
they have in the past. Selling

iess than six times earnings, the
stock certainly is one that cannot
be considered too high.
It was noteworthy that Loew's
was strong yesterday, while the
rest of the list was making new
lows right and left. I hear again
that LoeW's will increase its divi

that it will go on a regular 81

directors meeting this month

DOCTORS ADVICE
ON COLD AVOIDS
PNEUMONIA RISK
Cold Made Worse By Remedies
Which Open Pores Then Doctor
Gave Quick Relief Pleasant Way

An entirely new method that ends
colds quickly-often in just a few
hours-is now prescribed by doctors
in numerous hospital cases and is
also being used with remarkable
success in numbers of indianapolis
homes.
E. H. Young, for example, at
tempted to sweat out isNcold by
taking hot drinks and other home
remedies. But his work made it
necessary for him to go out the
next morning while the pores of
his skin were still open. AS re-
suit, he caught fresh cold and by
early afternoon he had developed
such high fever that pneumonia
was feared.
Acting on the advice Of his doctor,
then, he started taking a pleasant
spoonful of Ayers PectoraI every 10
minutes Instead of opening up the
pores and riskinG pneumonia, this hos
pital certified medication acted upon an
entirely different principle. Before
night the medication had been absorbed
by his system, thus checking the cold
wherever congestion had settled. BY
morning his fever was gone and con
pestion was clearing up rapidly. He
returned to work and in just q day or
so the cold was entirely gone.

During the period of his employ
ment by the park board it is esti-
mated he has supervised the re-
moval of some $4,000 trees from city
streets. The city forester orders
dangerous trees removed and
trimmed and supervises all utility
tree trimming. He also has made
study of plant and insect life and
furnishes information to persons at
the park board Office.
Moore is the only city official
who continued to use a bicycle for
Transportation, the remainder
having demanded the more speedy,
motor driven vehicles. Six bicycles
have been bought for Moore, one
having been stolen several years
ago.
This old wheel is about done for.

this spring if I continued on the
job" Moore said Il enjoy riding
a bicycle and think it has benefited
my health great deal. The only
disadvantage is that it's pretty
dangerous nowadays on Indianapo-
lis streets"
In early life, Moore was a printer
publisher in several small Indiana
towns and he has continued his
membership in Indianapolis Typo

HARVEY, Ill, Feb. 17.-Of late
- years William Richardson
complained often that he was
feeling the hand of time, that the
muscles he had hardened as a
blacksmith we're almost useless.
I'm 80 and the last weakness is
upon me-" he would say.
But when he awakened with
flames engulhng the house and
licking at the bed where he, and
his invalid wife, Maria, Is, were
lying, Richardson's strength came
back. He lifted his wife into his
arms and carried her through the
flames to safety.
Then he remembered the pic
ture they had taken on their
wedding day and the aged man
dashed back into the burning
house. Minutes passed and he
did not come out.
His son-in-laW, John Middleton,
and neighbors found him on the
bedroom floor, the picture clasped
in his arms. They carried him
out. He was dead.
