After these temporary demands have been sup piled, money rates are expected to go back to their recent levels.

sure he will have need for all the ability and courage he can con- mand.
 Says Officials Insincere
 And now, after four years as one of the highest field officials in pro- hibition enforcement. with three years of that time as administrator in New York, I publicly declare that certain treasury officials who have been charged with enforcement of the national prohibition act, and who are still to remain in charge of kindred activities, have not been sincere in their efforts to enforce this law.
 Further in New York and other areas in which the sentiment of the people is predominantly wet, this transfer of enforcement activities to the department of justice will mean nothing so long as prohibition pro- secutions are left to United States attorneys who possess political a3- pirations, the success of which must depend upon their ability to win the approval of local politicians and their community for their prosecu- ting activities.
 Finally. after my years Of service in the prohibition bureau, after watching closely the results of pro- hibition from the inside and after the most thoughtful and serious consideration of the LIatter, I have reached the following conclusion:
 Prohibition is not the logical so- lution for temperance in our form of government, and I now publicly advocate the repeal of the eigh- teenth amendment before the nation Is consumed in the fires of it's con- sequences"

Share Price Recovery Loses Its
 Vigor But Prices Climb to Higher
 Altitude With Rails Leading List
Wall Street Enters Second Half of Year Sobered But Hopeful for Nor malcy.

cry Tn share prices lost some of it's Yigor ill today's market, but prices worked higher for a time, with the rails, recently the weakest group in the list, providing leadership. Pro- it taking on rise, and experimental bear selling checked the rise during the carly afternoon.
 The financial community as whole, however, entered the second half or the year sobered but hope 1ul While opinion as to the eX- tent Of the probable recovery dur ing the next six months varies wide ly, there is little doubt that business trends will turn upward, as they normally do from August to De- cembcr. Nevertheless, the slack summer period is still young, and second quarter earnings statements must he absorbed. The first to ap- pear was a preliminary statement from Du Pont, estimating net at $1.- S1, against $1.44 in 1929, and $1.05 in 1928,
 Average Little Better
 Although rail earnings for May, with practically all reports now in, average but little better than those Of April and estimates for June are not very hopeful. most rail execu- tNes expect substantial improve ment during the next six months. Merchandising shares were also firm an indication of the comparatively satisfactory volume Of retail trade was indicated by Montgomery WarI June sales report, showing a gain of 2 1-5 per cent over June of last year. National Bcllas Hess reported a drop of nearly 24 per cent, but this company has been having un- usual difficulties.
 Trading showed some acceleration over yesterday, but was still rela- lively dull. The announcement Of Harvey, Fisk 6; Sons that it would abandon carrying marginal accounts was regarded as at least a reflcc- ton Of the change in speculative sentiment. but Wall Street was 1n- cllncd to interpret it primarily as an indication that this house had de- cidcd 10 specialize in an individual type of business, rather than as a precedent likely 10 be widely fol- lowed.
 Call money again rose to 3 per cent refectiDg withdrawals estimat- ed at about $l0Q,000,00o. for the midyear settlements and holiday Nash rcn1Iirerror1ts
 Atchison sold up more than points, making recovery of about 20 points from last weeks low. Chesapeake and Ohio, Rock Island and New York Central gained points and more. Such issues as Woolworth, Macy, Safeway, Kroger, Bethlehem, American Tobacco B, h. ternationaI Business Machines and Loews gained 10 1 points, and such wide movers as Case and Inger- soil Rand sold up several points. |. g. Steel opened off about a point, rallied and sold up nearly .. net. and turned downward again in the carly afternoon. American Can and several other pivotal shares pursued a sim liar course.

guard and ordered it to surround the
hall where the malcontents were din
ing at IL o'clock. Then he set off to
the place alone, timing his arrival, as
he thought, to agree with that of the
guards.
Unfortunately, he was too early. He
found. to his CONSERVATION, that he had
delivered himself over to his enemies.
Thinking fast, he said: Passing, saw
your lights. An, they promised a good
time. I have come to drain cup with
you"
Seating himself, he seized a cup,
filled it, and drank the health of the
assassinS. Confused, they drank with
him.
There was an embarrassed pause. One
of the StrelitZ, realizing that Peter had
played into their hands, turned to ST.
kanim. a chief conspirator.
Brother, the time has come" he said.
Not yet" replied Sukanim.
Just then footsteps sounded outside.
Peter guessed the guard had arrived.
He sprang up and felled Sukanim with
one blow to the jaw.
Perhaps not time for you, scoundrel, "
he shouted, but for me, yes"
The guard plunged into the room. The
plotters fell on their knees before Peter
to beg pardon. Chain them and take
them away" he commanded.
There was no softness in him. He had
all of them put to death. Their heads
were exposed publicly on columns, with
their dismembered limbs arranged
around them as ornaments.

Peter the Great of Russia never had a
mind to seem effeminate. All his life
he played the role of rough herman.
He preferred TO make love to husky
servant girls, rather than to ladies OF
fashion.
At his state dinners each guest was
obliged to begin with cup of brandy,
after which great glasses of wine were
served alternating with huge bumpers
Of the strongest English beer. Women,
as we'll as men, had to drink and soon
every one was drunk
whenever two tipsy guests engaged In
q f1st-fight, Pet" did not stop them.
Instead h Cleefully egged them on.
In C.0er that a ceremonial dinner
might not produce stiffness and spoil
the guests enjoyment, Peter made his
affairs democratic. He usually invited
800 or 400 persons to a feast set for
only 100 The result was a free for-all
battle for seats.
Peters holiness probably prevented
his death early in his reign. The Sire
litz, or imperial militia, which repre-
scented the old order. did not like his
innovations and planned his death. It
was plotted to start fire at night I'M
der the assumption that the Gar would
rush to the scene. Then in the con-
fusion he would be murdered.
On the appointed evening the con-
spirators dined together and fortified
themselves with strong drink. Midnight
was the hour set for carrying out their
plans.
News of the plot reached Peter. He
Immediately assembled the imperial
