 points to 37h. Coppers were steadier as were amusements, chemicals and special issues.
 Weekly steel reviews reported fur ther curtailment in steel production, the Iron Age placing the rate of op- eration for the industry at AZ per cent of capacity, against A per cent | last week. Steel prices continued to decline. A favorabl efactor was the hand to mouth buying policy of con sumers which was considered advan- tageous for a spurt in the industry when demand appeared on larger scale.

Another batch of warrants for al5 legged violators of the prohibition law was expected to be served here teddy by federal agents. A special drive was reported as in progress against second and third offenders, club managers, who having kicked in on previous cases have been un- der the impression that they were '.licensed" to carry on until they re- couped their losses. {,
 Two gentlemen by the names of Ruccino and Sweeney are the ad- vance agents for the clean-up squad. They have been making purchases here and filing affidavits. All drinks purchased by said agents were con sumed on the premises. No dealer is selling bottles of liquor to strang- CTS. On the strength of the say-so of these agents warrants are issued and served.

SCHOOL SITUATION
 GETTING SERIOUS
Room for All But Distance Too Far to Accommodate
 Small Children
MAYORS PLAN OF RELIEF

No delegation can silence a meet ing of public officials so effectively as one composed of women, es- pecially when they come accompan- jed by children, some of them in arms and others just about old enough to attend school for the first time this coming fall. This was quite evident at the session of the board of education when moth- CTS from the Hopevi1le school dis trict to the number of half a hun- dred made a protest against the proposition to send their children to the Mulcahy school.
 They stated their case in man. ner which left no doubt upon the minds of the commissioners that they felt they had a real grievance and were bound to have redress, even though they should have to keep their tots home from school to bring the matter to head. None of the commissioners, all of whom are ready debaters on other occas- ions had anything to say and acted as though they feared the visitors would ask them questions. Supt Donovan made a few remarks, but the petitioners silenced him. Things were getting rather hot, when Com missioner Butler halted the pro- ceedings by motion to refer the matter to the committee on rules for and report.
 All this might appear like a sim- pie matter. but it is nothing of the sort. Similar conditions exist in al- most every part of the city. In some districts the trouble is due to the shifting of population from one place to another and in others it is caused by development, with the result that while there are enough schools for all the children they are not located near enough to the centers of school population, espe- cially those in the lower grades. This was different when the schools were built, but since that time many have moved into outskirts and the parochial schools have also taken over large numbers of pupils. It is beginning to look as though the city will have to adopt the plan sug- gested by Mayor Hayes, use busses instead of building more expensive schools.
 Whatever turn things take, it is an encouraging sign of the times to see mothers stepping into the arena to make a fight for suitable school accommodation fer their children.

BY ELMER c. WALZER United Press Financial Edltor)

New York, June 3.-(UP)--An- 1ouncement by Chase National bank
 and Guranty Trust company that
 they had reduced margin require-
 ments from 25 to 20 per cent on
 street loans was bullish factor suf- ficient to turn the trend of the stock market upward in the afternoon
 trading to-day.
 Steel common led a rally that spread to all sectoins of the list. |. Around the end of the fourth hour stocks were up l to 3 points. Au-
 burn Auto spurted 12 points to 15O. Earlier in the day the market
 worked back and forth. It started
 better on improved business news
 including sanction by the govern
 ment of the Standard of New York; Vacuum merger, sharp drop in brokers loans and rise in car load
 ings.
 When July wheat broke to new low since 1895 in Chicago on re- ports the farm board had with drawn support, the stock market spread to all sections of the list.
 Early gains were wiped out and dealing slowed up until the bank announcement On margin reQuire-
 ments was given out in the after noon.
 Near the end of the fourth hour Steel Common was at SC 1-3 up 2 7-8 from the previous close; Ameri- can Can 95 3-4 up 5-S; Du Pont "A 1-4 up 1 3-4; Vanadium 25 3-S up l 7-s; American Telephone 16O 3-4 up 2 1-4 and Electric Power & Light 33 5-8 up 2 3-8. NewYork Central led rally in the Rails and General Motors rose more than 2 points in it's division.
 Trading increased. Wall street observers regarded the action of the two large banks in reducing bargin requirements as highly constructive.
 It was explained by the Guaranty
 Trust Company that the action was taken because it considered the
 market has approached level of quoted values which makes 90 per cent margin conservative. At 1:30 D. m. the Dow-Jones h. dustrial average was at 124.85 up 3.15 points; Railroad 68.08 up 1.22
 and Utility 50.24 up 0.61.
 Around 1850 p. m. tickers carried 9 bid of 87 for steel. A moment later the issue sold at this figure. Active buying of this premier industrial brought in short covering. Tickers were running at nearly top speed. A feature of the session was a drop of 55 points to 35 in Youngs- town Sheet and Tube company blue stamped certificates. The blue stamp ed issue represents "black stamped"
 stock on which demand had been made for $250 share by holders dissenting from the merger of Beth lehem Steel Corporation and Youngs- town Sheet and Tube.

''That the ice business and cleo

case, but rates for service should be
charged the ice company on the
same basis as any other large rom

the original idea of serving both

would not be justified in allowing
