Daily Report Of
Stock Markets

NEW YORK, June %. U.P)-The
New York stock market joined other
world markets today in enthusiastic
demonstration of strength and ac-
tivity on the prospect of a one-year-
debt moratorium as proposed by
President Hoover.
In New York .he market bounded
forward ! to Ia points. It was the
most active session since mid-Feb-
ruary. Brokerage houses were ac-
tive and tickers were pressed to
keep apace with the trading.
The stock market was not alone
in surging forward. Bonds, espe-
cially German issues, were up in
active turnover. Cotton advanced
So a bale and was sharply higher
in all foreign markets. Wheat ad-
vanced in Chicago.
Prior to opening of the New
York stock exchange. the Berlin
Bourse showed advances of from l
to 80 points. 1t was one of the
widest demonstrations there in
years. London, Amsterdam. Brus-
sells, Toxic and Paris markets also
advanced.
LOS ANGELES, June %. U.P) -
Prices advanced fractionally when
trading opened on the Los Angeles
stock exchange today. Within five
minutes 4000 shares had changed
hands and prices were steadily
climbing.
Due to Saturdays heavy advances,
however, the rise in the market in
the first few minutes of trading was
only fractional. This was particu-
larly true in regard to oils which
have advanced steadily since; the
price war ended and Mr.. Hoover
made his announcement regarding
the debt moratorium.

solid coloring. as in the vase now

ly broad statement to make. but is,
nevertheless, true.
Mr.. Trimble was architect for the
Methodist Episcopal Missionary

and during this time collected his
rarities. Some were taken from ex-
cavafons. some we're purchased
from owners. and others we're found
in Isolated places.
Some Of his finest pieces were
taken from excavations for the
building of the Women's College IN
Foochow. China. This building was
constructed on an elevation over
looking the Min River Just outside
OF the walled city Of Foochow. and
was an old burying ground. APP
proximately 10000 graves were
opened during the excavation. and
the remains carefully placed in
earthern Jars and buried elsewhere.
The local architect travelled ex-
tensively IN the interior. through
the mountains and out-of-the-way
places.
Upon his return 10 the United
States on a furlough IN 1910. his
collection was sent 10 the Univers-
