Daily Report Of
Stock Markets

NEW YORK, Sept. 10. UR)--
United Kingdom 5l2 per cent bonds
of 1897 crashed on the stock ex-
change today, following a break OF
O. cent in the pound sterling, and
this weakness brought heavy SELL
ing into the stock market after a
brief interval of recovery.
The downswing in the British
bonds was caused by liquidation
based on expectation of a general
election in England. Some of the
selling was traceable to foreign
sources and some was believed to
be coming from banks and inSur-
ance companies.
Before the wide break in the
British bonds, the stock market
had shown some signs of recovery
from lows made in the early trad
ing. The bond decline accompanied
by a drop in sterling to S4.84%
brought out further liquidation OF
stocks that carried all the leaders
to new lows for the bear market
Railroad shares were down to levels
of 1897 in the average and indus
trials to 1925.
Today's decline was the 18th in
the past IS days or since the first
of the month. In that period the
industrial average has lost more
than 25 points, railroads more than
Is and utility more than IL.
Bearish sentiment was furthered
near the close by rumors that the
governors of the Bank of England
had gone into emergency session.
This was taken to mean that the
national government had run into
another financial snag. The ru-
mors were not confirmed officially
Before the American opening,
the London stock market dipped
sharply, with high grade securities
under pressure Heavy selling oc-
Cured at Amsterdam where Royal
Dutch dropped IS points and AM
sterdam Trading company sold
down IA points,
According to preliminary calcu-
lations the Dow, Jones & Co., in
dustrial average declined $40 points
to 1ll.68, the rail average declined
O88 points to $500 and the util-
ity average was off 1,67 points at
4471.
Sales totaled 2,473 ,553 shares, the
largest short session of the year.

RUSSIA SEES
PLAN MUST BE
CHANGED NOW
BY EUGENE LYONS
United Press Staff Correspondent

MOSCOW, Sept. l8. U.p)-The ul-
innate aim of the group which die
tates the destinies of one-sixth Of
the worlds habitable surface-the
Communist Party of the Soviet
Union-is relatively equal distri-
button of wealth. AS yet, however,
differences Of income are not only
tolerated, but recently have been re-
cognized as essential.
The law permits the transmission
of money and other possessions to
direct heirs, with various limita-
tons, and the government en-
courgeS savings accounts and pur-
chaSeS of internal loans.
Huge Fortunes Prevented
Nevertheless the whole Soviet
system is calculated to prevent the
accumulation of huge fortunes. The
state monopoly on all but the pet
test manufacture and trade, on
banking and finance, leaves no
room for those ambitious to be
rich.
Estates exceeding half a million
rubles, If left to private heirs, are
practically taxed out of existence
90 per cent reverting to the state.
For estates between 100000 and
100000 rubles, the tax ranges be-
tween 80 and 60 per cent, depend
ing not only on the amount, but
on the social standing of the de-
ceased. On smaller inheritances the
taxes are surprisingly moderate.
Quick Spenders
The tendency here is for people
to spend Immediately everything
they earn. Partly this is due to the
fear of initiation which might de-
stroy the value of cash accumula-
tions. Even more SO it is attributa-
BILE to the extensive system of social
insurance which practically removes
the fear of the future, of illness and
disability.
Soviet citizens in good standing
are entitled to free medical care,
education, vacations with pay, pen
sions in old age, free nurseries for
children, etc. Mothers receive long
vacations with full pay before and
after the birth of a child.
Some of this insurance is as yet
limited, the state being too poor to
accomplish practically all it pro-
poses theoretically.

DESERT DENIZENS TO SEE
SECOND KENNEDY MARRIAGE

riage annulled and Hudson
came here to secure a divorce
from the previous Mrs. Hud-
son. The divorce was granted
yesterday, and as quickly as
they could hustle to the mar
riage license bureau, Mrs. Ken
nedy and Hudson had signed
the dotted line.
Nothing can separate us now"
said Mrs. Kennedy triumphantly.
I'VE have covered the bumpy Sec
ton of our matrimonial highway
and now nothing but happiness lies
ahead.
And this one Is going to takel"
Helped Get Divorce
TO make sure she slipped the
halter on her "wonder-man," Mrs.
Kennedy played an active part in
the divorce proceedings. She paid
flying visit to Los Angeles to
serve the first Mrs. Hudson with
the summons.
Mrs. Hudson was surprisingly
agreeable TO accepting them, mas
much as she had instituted a di-
vorce action of her own. She con-
ceded that she was perfectly will
ing that "What- -a-Man" secure the
divorce on any grounds he wished,
and impaired blessing on the hap
py couple.
Sundays wedding, in some re-
spects, will be a colorful counter
part of a ceremony staged last
June % at midnight on the shores
of a lake near Longview, Wash,
when Ma" married Hudson.
The ceremony will be just one
week after the elopement of Mrs.
Kennedy'S daughter, Aimee, and
Dave Hutton, whom Ma" affec-
tionately called "What-a- Baritone"
And is Mrs. Kennedy happy?

COMMEND LOCAL
ORGAN NIzATION
FOR ITS ACTIVITY

In a letter received today by the
Ell Centro Chamber of Commerce
from a we'll known operator COM
pany. the chamber is commended
for its efforts to increase hog rails
ing in Imperial Valley and restore
the hog raising industry to the i'm
portant place it once held in the
valley.
The writer said this move will do
much to rehabilitate the dairy in
dustry of Imperial Valley and that
other chambers throughout the
coast would do well to follow the
example of the El Centro chamber.
The separation of milk on the
farm, the shipping of the cream and
feeding of the skim milk on the
ranch to hogs, poultry and young
heifer calves, has long been recog-
nized as the correct system of dairy
ing, according to this letter, and
the writer continues: With the de-
velopment of the manufacture of
products, such as powdered skim
milk and casein, a premium was
placed on whole milk and the dairy
man gradually discontinued the old

Christian Science

Christ Jesus statement" Heaven
and earth shall pass away, but
my words shall not pass away"
constitutes the Golden Text in the
lesson-sermon on Matter" Sum-
day, in all branches of The Mother
Church, The First Church of
Christ, Scientist, in Boston, Mass
The responsive reading presents
portions of the Masters sermon on
the Mount, and includes Jesus
words: "Do men gather grapes of
thorn, or figs of thistles? Even SO
every good tree bringeth forth
good fruit; but a corrupt tree
bringeth forth evil fruit :.
Wherefore by their fruits ye shall
know them"
A Scriptural selection cites Paul's
teaching, For though there be
that are called gods, whether in
heaven or in earth, (as there be
gods many, and lords many,) but
to us there is but one God, the
Father, of whom are all things,
and we in Him; and one Lord
Jesus Christ. by whom are all
things and we by Him"
A correlatiye passage from Sci
ence and Health with Key to the
Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy,
says, "The three great verities of
Spirit, omnipotence, omnipresence,
omniscience, spirit possessing all
power, filling all space, constituting
all science-contradict forever the
belief that matter can be actual"

HANGAR FOUNDATIONS NOW GOING DOWN AT
 SEWARD AIRPORT

The Seward Airport hangar site was squared off yesterday by Con- tractors Thody and Senft and ini- tial work started on imbeddlng deep wooden foundations, which will reach to the underlying gravel bed. Oie Sandbeck is employed on the job.
 Actual building of the hangar proper will begin with the arrival of carload of timbers and lum- Der, supplied by the local building material dealer, Cal M. Brosius, which is now enroute
 Among the proposed improve ments at the Seward Airport is a new central runway from the field over the highway and beyond to the meadows and beach, these lat ter two to be cleared of all Stumps, logs and beach debris. This will give an additional emergency field of almost one-half mile over the present.
 Trees on both sides of the hangar will not be cut down for they will serve as natural wind breaks.
 For night landings, it lis pro posed to use, at least temporarily, railroad fuses" emitting a TO- minute red flare. The smoke from these flares will give airmen the direction of the prevailing wind Two flares will be set off at one end of the field against the wind while third flare will be lighted at the apex of the other end. This is in conformity with the Depart ment of Commerce night signals for plane landings; planes land be- tween the two lights and run down field to the apex light or flare.
 When Pilot Barnhill took off the other day with 1,000-pound load his plane was in the air, running from north to south, in half the field.
 When Pilot CroSson landed a few days ago from Anchorage, south to north, he touched the field slightly ahead of the radio station road, coming to full stop practically less than half the field length.
 Barnhill took off with wheels and Crosson landed and took off on skis. But in any case, as a safety measure, the north end of the field should be heightened several hundred feet with additional fall- ing and slashing of trees beyond that.

All of us get dumb now and then
The writer had a spell of it earlier
in the week when he called Bat
Ting Paul out of his name, clubbing
him Andy Armstrong.
But the prize boner of the week
goes TO Harry Woodbury.. match
maker OF the Imperial Valley Ath-
letic club. Harry has been telling
us what a great fighter Tex Mills
is. how he went a tough draw with
David a few weeks ago and what a
tough tartar he was to be in the
main event with Pete Savadera to-
night.
We argued that Mills. as we re-
called 1t, was a boy who made
good showing in preliminary bout
something over year ago and that
he had not appeared here in main
event.
Last night it dawned on Bone
head" Woodbury. that he was all
wet. The boy he had in mind was
this Claude Richards. otherwise
known as Tex, who put up a great
scrap against David in the local
arena on May Is. He got a draw
with David. Mr.. Woodbury. has
keen sense of humor. Very keen.
Having discovered his mistake while
fighting the mosquitoes at an early
hour this morning, he called us up
TO tell us about il.

PRIZE 'BONER' THIS WEEK
PULLED BY HARRY WOODBURY.

Not being used to getting ur
about 2:30 a. m, we had deter
mined not to write a single line
, about this Mills-Rickard mess, bui
the opportunity to show up Mr.
Woodbury. is too good to pass. He
not only told us it was Tex Mills
who was fighting, but his fight cards
and advertising say Mills when II
should be Richards. And he trieo
to tell us something about prize
fighting, when we know all there
Is to be known about it. If he
hasn't pulled the prize boner of the
year, we'll be willing to kiss Bill
Tackett.
Now that that is Off our chest,
something about Mr.. Richards. For
five rounds, on the night of May Is,
he gave Young David such a boxing
lesson that the fans were nearly
wild. Then David discovered that
Tex doesn't like them low. He start
ed in a body attack. A couple of
accidental blows weakened Richards
and in the sixth a square shot to
the belt sent him. down for the
count OF nine. He weathered
through the seventh and eighth and
was fully entitled to the draw deci-
sion he received.
AS we can only judge Pete Sava-
dera by his reputation, we can't say
much about him.
Pete has three recent wins at
the Olympic and one at HOLLYWOOD
to his credit, and has all the ear
MARKS. on paper, OF being pretty
good fighter.
The balance of the card stands
as 1T is written: Baby Ruiz and
Speedy Lucas in the semi-final
Battling Paul and frankie West in
the special and Vincent Solano
opening the show with Lorenzo
Reyes.
Any fan can get his moneys
worth in Ruiz fight alone. That
Kid is a crowd pleaser and in his
three fights here thus far he has
had the spectators sliding around
on their seats. If Lucas is as good
as they say, the scrap ought to be
a good one.
Against a slow fighter like
frankie West, Battling Paul ought
to 60 good, but he will have tn
watch out for the good West right
arm which carries dynamite. There
ought to be plenty of excitement
in this bout.
Vincent Solano. providing he

Reyes, but you rever can tell. for
