Of the half-world comes this
epithet.
Lost behind maze Of flowers in
the Office Of the chief of police at

whom the epithet is applied
Michael F. Morrissey, new 34-year-
old chief Of police.

And copper" to Dropping Cigaret
is the line of demarcation between
the law and the lawless. It's the
broad line that mike" Morrissey
has drawn for himself in his strides
through streets where the Ten

he says in an aside to a brother
officer.
Sure they are, Mike" the buddy
officer retorts as he pats him on

in and out with handShakeS for
their new boss.
Holiday for Cops
It's a Roman holiday for the po-

he wants cooperation from them

He's no babe that's getting his
first eye wash, this new chief
He knows why speeders speed,
gamblers gamble, bootleggers boot

motorcycle squad, the vice raiders,
and work as detective.

Automobile output in the United
States and Canada last month exceeded
that OF November and of same month
year before, according to estimate of
National Automobile Chamber of Com
merce. Total for month was 155, 185
units compared with 1874, 944 in Novem-
Der and 125, 500 in December, 1929. For
the full year of 1880 output is placed
at 3,5O5,06l units, against 1921, IT'S in
1928, q decline Of 37.7 per cent, and
smallest Of any year since 1922. De-
cline in sales for the year was less dras-
tic, thereby improving the condition Of
dealers stocks, which in numerous
cases are the lowest in several years.
Consensus in the trade at this time Is
that new and improved models, aided
by lower prices, will provide a basis
for q change for better In the industry.
Electricity production throughout the

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, January S.-Retail
stores are in most instances selling q
larger volume Of merchandise than
they were a year ago, but at lower
price levels, which make the total
dollar volume lower. This combina-
ton forces owners and managers of
department and speciality stores to
examine carefully their costs of opera
ton. They cannot afford to spend
more money to handle the additional
merchandise when the amounts COM
ing into their tillS are less. This prob
lem Is clearly In evidence in the pro-
gram for the Twentieth Annual Com
vention OF the National Retail Dry
Goods Association. which is to be held
at the Hotel Pennsylvania, New York
City, February 2 TO 6, inclusive
A large representation from the
S,700 member stores Of the association
throughout the United States and In
foreign countries will assemble to dis
clIss the problems which recent BUSH
ness conditions have forced upon their
attention. The theme Of the conven-
ton Is to be Build Sound Manage
ment-from 1880 Experience and, re-
flecting the need for increased eff
flciency, such topics as the following
appear throughout the various ses-

ADVANCE IN BOND
PRICES IS STEADY
Market Rises Close to Hiqh-
est Level Reached
in 1880.
BY F. H. RICHARDSON.
Special Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star
NEW YORK, January 8.-The broad
ening of the advance in bonds to in
clude secondary and even third grade
issues became more emphatic today,
though trading was lighter than on
Wednesday.
1t may be said now that the average
level of the high-grade group has been
forced above the 1880 high in most
cases and while to AIS per cent
yield, with money rates as they are, is
still attractive to conservative investors,
many others are buying for high yield
basis. The level of the whole market
Is within a point of its 1880 high, ac-
cording to number of we'll known
bond indices. There was no quotable
change in time money rates, but sup
plies aHere again over abundant.
Junior rail issues like Frisco AIS, on
which the current yield Is over 5.25 per
cent, and Erie general lien As, which
yields about $50 per cent, were pop
ular today. There were gains of q
point or more in these and in Chicago
g. Eastern Illinois SIS and fractional
gains in long list of other secondary
carrier obligations. The same was true
Of junior public utilities and indus
trials, for example, marlborough re-
funding SIS, Anglo-Chilean Nitrate rs,
Chile Copper SIS, Colon Oil IS, Dodge
Bros. IS, Goodrich IS, International
Hydroelectric 6s, International Paper
IS, McKesson & Robbins 51as, Para
mount-Publix 51zs and Sinclair Oil rs.
High-grade issues were generally
higher by fractions and United States
Government obligations, especially Lib
erty first 4As and Treasury As and
ANS, were heavily bought at prices
close to their highs. Convertibles had
small gains all around.
