were irregular today in quiet trading.
United States Government issues were
liouidated in small amounts, forcing
prices down 1872 to 4-32, but prime
corporation bonds remained unchanged,
or in few cases, advanced fractionally.
Foreign dollar issue continued to
show strength. Money rates were un-
changed.
The only market factors of impor-
lance today we're indications of large
new financing to come. The offering
bv Brooklyn Edison of $4,000 900 in
new stock indicated that Consolidated
Gas. which owns 9812 per cent of
Brooklyn Edison stock, might have to
do some financing to take advantage
of the rights on the new Brooklyn Edi-
son stock. Consolidated Gas has had
in preparation for some time a $780,
900 900 issue of bonds, but these have
been postponed because of market con-
ditions. The Street now has it that
they will be offered next week. In ad-
dition the Baltimore & Ohio an
nounced the sale of $35,000,000 of 4
per cent notes, maturing in August,
1882.
In connection with the application
Of the Pennsylvania Railroad to raise
bond indebtedness by $15O,000,O00. 1t

FOILS BANK BANDITS;
INVESTS $500 REWARD

There are two parts to this story that
will interest every banker. The story,
says the Bankers Monthly, concerns
Ernest Glenn of the Plaza Bank of
Commerce in Kansas City.
The bank was held up by bandits.
The hold-up was frustrated by the
throwing of a gas bomb by Mr.. Glenn.
In appreciation of this, nine insurance
companies made up fund of $500
The second part of this story con-
Germs what Ernest Glenn did with the
$500. He invested it. He says that he
has learned the value of money through
his experience in making his own living
since he was Is years old. His policy
is to tell his dollars where to go in
stead of asking where they went.

NEW YORK, February 14.-Con-
sumner response to holiday retail pro-
motional events was described by New
York retail executives yesterday as the
best of the month so far. The mild
weather played part in encouraging
consumer attendance at the stores, in
contrast to the sharp slump earlier in
the week.
Sales volume at the Midwinter fur
niture trade showing, which closes to-
morrow, will be at least per cent above
that of the 1880 show, despite a decline
of $50 In the number of buyers attend
ing, off1cials estimate. The exhibition,
which has been in progress at the New
York Furniture Exchange for the last
two weeks, is the first since 1929 at
which buyers showed confidence In
purchasing, sellers said.

FACTORS IN BAKING
TRADE FIX PRICES
Wages and Distribution
Charges Declared important
in Bread Costs.
BY WALTER BROWN.
Written for the Associated Press.

CHICAGO, February 14.-Bread
prices remain snobbishly aloof from
the lowly wheat and -four because of an
environment of stable wages and con-
slant distribution and advertising
charges, said w. E. Long, bakery
analyst and statistician Of more than
80 years experience.
Bread consumption now. he observed,
is of 20 per cent from the normal ma
tional usage of five ounces a day per
person, or 37,500,000 pounds for th7
country.
From his most recent survey compiled
last month of virtually all the inda-
pendent bakeries of the United States.
Long found that the wholesale price
of bread was $6.74 per 100 pounds,
about 100 loaves. Three months ago the
Wholesale price was $500 per 100
pounds. The average profit, Longs
figure shows was Is cents per 100
pounds.
Industry on High Plane.
Luxuries of industry, high speed
machinery sanitary factories, motorized
delivery, bread wrappers and the use of
better ingredients have lifted the baking
industry to high financial plane.
Ten years ago the average bakery
! investment was $4,000. Today it is
100000. decade ago bread was de-
livered with horse and wagon at 81
cents per 100 pounds Motorized de-
livery costs 90 cents for each 100
pounds. The data are from the Long
figures.
As an indication of how widely bread
may vary in content Mr.. Long said that
of four grades of flour used in bread
making there may be difference of
So a barrel, which yields 800 loaves.
There are dozens of shortcomings, some
inexpensive but of reduced buttsr-fat
proportion and others costly but rich in
fats. Milk and eggs vary in price and
quantity and salt may run from So to
$38 ton.
The Chicago analysts statistics
showed that in 1913 with wheat at
Kansas City selling for 81 cents
bushel. bread retailed at SIS cents and
the average wage of all bakery workers
! was S16.36 week. In 1920 with wheat
at it's peak, $2.z6 in Kansas City, bread
was lis cents loaf and wages average
! S37 40. Last May wheat had fallen to
SO cents at Kansas City and loaf bread
i wages were higher, $500.
Experiment Cited.
Mr.. Long contends bread consumption
does not increase with low prices uu-
less the richness of the loaf SIS pre-
served, and he illustrates it with an
experiment his company made last
Summer in Detroit.
He selected 81 representative work.

sumers and for 80 days he supplied
them with three grades of bread. chang
| ing every two days. One grade was
subnormal in quality of flour. shorten
| ing, milk and other commodities. A
second was normal and the third was
the richest in food value that the in
dustry knew.
Although. he said. none of the
families voiced an expression of dis
satisfaction or preference, it was found
that consumption was 90 per cent
greater on the days the rich loaf was
distributed.

WASHINGTON, D. O., Oct. 30.- A monster patrol boat furthers the navy's ambition of having air cruis- CTS at home alike in sky and on sea.
 It is an all-metal, experimental Martin plane, the largest flying boat built for the navy since the NC ships which took part in the first successful transatlantic flight in 1919.
 While it's dimensions and per- formance will remain a navy sec ret for year. the bureau of aero nautics has announced that the plane is designed for long cruises and the carrying of heavy loads.
 Has Quarters for Crew
 The plane is equipped like sur face craft and has quarters in- stalled for it's crew. Several stand ard navy hunks have been fitted, facilities are provided for fresh water and cooking, and the plane can be provisioned so it's crew may live on board during extended ope- rations. St'h
