The Ukrainian population totals about 4,5o0,o00, some of whom live in Eastern Galicia, formerly Austrian territory, and others in the Western Ukraine, once Russian soil. The Ukrainians comprise the largest minority in Poland. Their children 1 attend either purely Ukrainian schools or else mixed Polish Ckrainian schools.
 Several of the other minorities have their own schools. some of them state-supported, others pri- vate. Hebrew is taught in Jewish private schools, many of which are supported by funds sent by Jews liv- ing in the United States. The White Russian children in the Wilma district attend state schools where they are taught in their own language. The Lithuanian Poles also have their own schools and own language. Schools in the Czech tongue are maintained for colonists from Czechoslo ovakia who have been liv- ing for the last several years in the Western Ukraine.

CURB TRADING IS
 UNUSUALLY SLOW
Fluctuations Of Point or Two
 Exceptional at Opening

New York, July 25-Trading in curb stocks was lifeless today and price changes inconseouential. The market was almost completely lack ing in initiative, either one way or the other and not even the normal ly'active utilities turned over in any volume.
 Fluctuations of point or two were exceptional in the earlier hours Among the few stocks that varied to such a modest extent were Eastern States Power "B", American Gas & Electric and Tampa Electric, all talk ing an upward trend.
 Despite the favorable turns in oil production, including the announce ment of new curtailments in Penn- sylvania Crude, the petroleum shares did nothing. Cities Service, the usual leader in volume, was exceedingly quiet.
 Industrials and specialties man. aged to hold their own. Driver Har- ris moved higher, but such recent favorites as Ford of England and Anglo-Chilean Nitrate were stag nant. Deere. American Tobacco "B.' Technicolor and Walgreen were firm. Mining shares were dull
 United Founders continued to creep higher, but the investment company section was on the whole colorless. National Investors was heavy. Marine Midland, a bank stock holding company which has applied for listing on the big board, improved fractionally. Transamer- ica made it's debut on the New York stock exchange today, thereby re- moving from the curb list one of its most active stocks.

POLES CONQUERING
 LANGUAGE PUZZLE
Russian and German Slowly Dy.
 ng-YOuns Speak Polish

Warsaw, July 25.-(UP)-Poland is slowly but successfully solving its various minority language problems, according to recent statiticss that re- veal widespread extension of the use of the national language. Rus before the war, has been all but eliminated, while the younger genra- ton sin former Prussian territory sons and daughters of German speaking parents, virtually all speak Polish as a result of the Polonization of the schools.
 Even the original Poles. q ma jority of whom were illiterate be- fore the war, are learning to read and write in their native tongue. About the only problem of consid- erable proportions yet remaining is that involving the Ukrainians, the largest minority group in the coun- try.
 In that part Of the present re- public which was Russian before 1914. Russian was not only the court and state language. but was the only tongue officials were permitted tc use in their relations with the na- tive population. Even though these officials were in many cases them- selves Polish, they could deal with their fellow Poles only in Russian, In the larger cities therefore, al- most everyone understood Russian In the rural districts. however, this tongue was almost unknown SC that when peasant was required to serve in the army, or called be- fore a government official or sum- moned to a court of law he in- variably had to have an inter- preter.
 In 1905 school strike was held throughout Poland. The principal demand of the strikers was that Po- fish be made the language of instruc- ton. Due 10 the strength of the movement the Russian government capitulatcd to a limited extent. Po- fish was introduced into the inter- mediate schols, particularly the prl- vate schools, but the state schools retained the official language. More over, the Polish language schools were denied certain rights, A gradu- ate from one Of these could not. fol example, matriculate in a Russian language college, and as a result many Polish youths either dropped their studies or continued them ir French, Belgian, German or Swis: universities.
 It was not until after the Worlt war that the prohibition of the Pc. fish tongue was abolished. While i was still in force, and especially be cause the Russian authorities wer, not successful in their compulser! school attendance program, illiterac. f1ourished. Even IS years after tn, Russian withdrawal from Poland tht problem thus created presents man, difficulties though 10 an appreciahl' degree some of them have beer ovrcome. Whereas 67 per cent of th' population of former Poland wa 1 illiterate in 1915, only 30 per cen are unlettered today. The remaindeI are becoming acquainted with Pc fish as it is written and read as fas as the government can provide fol them.
 The sole remaining language prob lem concerns the use of Ruthenia1
 or Ukrainian in southeast Poland

RAILROAD BONDS
 REACH HIGHLEVEL
Carrier Issues Make Their Best < Showing in Weeks

New York, July 25 LP-Railroad bonds and few other high grade issues were accumulated today at the high levels established during the past three weeks, while second ary issues suffered from neglect. The activity which developed yes terday in the listed market to en- able carrier issues to make the best showing in several weeks was view ed by bond men as a distinctly en- couraging factor Banks were un- derstood to have added large blocks : Of bonds to their portfolios and bond houses see better inquiry de- .Veloplng among private investors for nXed income securities. Individuals havo been slow to turn to long time investments and the quiet strength shown by the market has been due to the support of an institutional character. Another factor has been the weight of new offerings which has been partially removed, with bond houses experiencing less diff f1cnlty in disposing of new financing.
 Bond offerings for the week end- ing today totaled s73,737,000 aIs compared with sS5,700.000 last week The large volume of utility issues was a feature. the largest being the s33,000,o00 Texas Electric Service Company issue placed on the market today. Several municipal issues brought the total offerings for the day to s33,73O,000.
 Find Ready Response
 > Municipal issues have experienced a ready response this year. enabling many cities to obtain additional loans for financing various projects, Dallas, Tex, plans to float s3,900,- 1000 bond issue next month. and Cook county, Illinois. will sell s2,- 5o0,000 Az per cent corporate bonds on August 4.
 The outlook for railroad bonds to rise above the highest level of the year established in the March spurt has been enhanced, bond men say by the marked strength they have shown in quiet trading. With the improved tone of stocks convertibies also have been aided. On the day s movement, Atchison 41ss gained more than a point. and Baltimore & Ohio 4ihs and Chicago and North western "A S were active and firm. St, Paul 5s were soft.
 A good demand developed efoT Canadian Pacific As. Big Four AIS Colorado and Southern 4l4s, Great Northern Is, Illinois Central Az S. Nickel Hate 41as, and St. Paul 5s of 1915. Great Northern 515 s were strong. Chesapeake and Ohio z1a s which sagged 1N points yesterday more than recovered its loss,
 \ Best grade utility and foreign is- sues continued upward. Trading in French and German issues provided most of the activity in the foreign group, Japan 5'as. and Italy Is made fractional gains. American Telephone ss and 5ias were active at higher prices. International Tele- phone 5s and Detroit Edison 5s were firm.

NEW YORK, February IA marked
improvement in the demand for COP
per featured the market for non-ferrous
metals in the past week, according to

kets.
THE domestic sales of the red metal
for the week approached 1000 tona.
which was we'll above the 1929 aver
age" the report states. 1.-THE volume
of bookings to domestic consumers was
the largest in any week since September
IL, 1929. Activity in lead continued at
high rate. Zinc sales fell off rather
abruptly, but this was expected in view
OF the recent heavy buying. Tin showed
little change.
Large fabricators entered the mar
ket Tor good tonnage of copper for
immediate and February shipment at
ID cents delivered in Connecticut and
1875 cents in the Middle West. Judging
by requests for immediate shipment it
was evident that fabricators had per-
mitted their reserve stocks to dwindle
far below normal. Export business in
copper was active during the week and
sales since February / amounted to
about 1900 tons. January export sales
amounted to $4,000 long tons. which is
considered satisfactory showing when
contraSted with the three preceding
months"
