Emulsion
Production Gains

The output of emulsified as
phalt in the United States in
1881 was over one-third larger
than in 1880, according to fig
ures compiled by the United
States Bureau of Mines. The
production of petroleum asphalts
and fluxes emulSified with wa
ter increased from 27.211,169 gal
Ions. or 115,647 short tons, in
1881.
Only 12.1 per cent of the
total output in 1880 and only
10.7 per cent in 1881 was made
by petroleum refineries which
manufacture asphalt directly
from crude petroleum. BY far
the greater part of the produc.
ton was prepared by industrial
companies which purchased the
asphaltic raw material from
petroleum refinerieS.

APATHY MARKS
DEALINGS IN
STOCKS
BY LESLIE GOULD

NEW YORK, June % 0.N.SD.
Ehe stock market went through
an apathetic session today for
the fourth successive day, with
the volume OF trading around
the lowest levels witnessed since
1924.
The reaction of the last two
days helped the technical posi-
ton of the list and a firmer
tone was apparent. This was
aided by steadier action of COM
moditieS and improvement in
bond prices.
News No Help
There was little in the news
TO influence buying or selling
and the speculative community
awaited clarification of the for
eign situation following Presi-
dent Hoover's sweeping arms re-
duction proposal yesterday.
A mixed trend ruled in the
first hour. American Can went
to a new low as dividend uncer-
tainty continued to influence
further selling American Tele-
phone drifted lower and U. S.
Steel preferred equalled its rec
ord low.
These losses were recovered
toward noon as the list Stiffened
and gains we're general through
out the list.
Auburn was strong, gaining
about 3 points. Case Threshing
was lifted by short covering.
brought about by the better tone
In wheat. B. M. T. continued to
work higher with it's dividend
out of the way.
FURRY in AlcOhOlS
The strong prohibition repeal
sentiment among Democrats on
the eve of the convention brought
a furry in the alcohol and allied
shares. Declaration of the regu-
lar dividend by National Dis
tillers helped, but gains were
not important
Omission of the common and
second preferred dividends by
Electric Power & Light, Electric
Bond & Share affiliate, passed
without effect either on it's own
shares or the other utilities.
Oils were dull. Rails showed
slight reactionary tendencies.
Mining shares were neglected.
Sugars tended upward. Ameri-
can Tobacco B was a strong
spot, Rising nearly 2 points on a
few transactions.

Failures Register
Continues Decline

The number of failures re-
ported to Bradstreet's for the
week ended June 16 increased
very slightly, rising from SIS to
564. The gain, however. was less
than is normally expected at this
time, and Bradstreet's index Of
weekly failures again declined, to
1888.
This compares with 1898 m
the preceding week, 1922 two
weeks ago and 1901 for the same
week of 1881. The past weeks
total of 564 defaults is consider
ably higher than the 482 failures
reported for the same week last
year.

COTTON STEADY.
At IMPROVED
PRICES

NEW YORK. June % Q.N.S).
Cotton futures held steady pace
today moving within narrow
range at levels slightly above the
previous close.
Trading was at moderate
rate. Liverpool and the continent
were good buyers here. There was
a small demand from the trade.
Spot firms also bought. Most Of
the contracts were furnished by
commission houses and the South.
Liquidation Absorbed
There was further liquidation
of July, which however, was alb
sorbed by spot houses. Some sell
ing came from brokers with Jap
anese interests.
Traders we're cheered by the
weekly report of a leading crop
service pointing out that eXces-
sive rainfall occurred over practi-
cally all areas from the MiSsis'
sippi river eastward during the
week ended June 20.
Late reports from the Eastern
Belt State farmers in many areas
have been unable to "plow' for
the past eight or ten days and
fields are becoming extremely
foul with grass and weeds, the
review said.
Crop Reports Due
The private end-of-June crop
reports should be making their
appearance within the next week
or 10 days. The most general
idea appears to be that they will
reflect fairly favorable plant
condition. but this is coupled with
some doubt as to just what this
may mean in ultimate yields per
ace, in view of the boil weevll
situation.
Around midday, futures showed
gains of l to points. with July
up 4 at 5.21, october up l at 5.44.
December up at $50, January
up 3 at 5.68, March up 3 at 5.83,
and May up at 5.98.

stance when it was clearly demon
strated that parking space around

Disregard for church and public

.Pay Me That Thou Owest''
Just who the first person was to
go in debt would doubtless be
it was started something. To be a
debtor was common at the begin
ming of the Christian era. The
Apostle Paul says, II am debtor to
both Greeks and Barbarians," ETC.,
but he didn't mean that he owed
them money, goods, or anything like
that. 1t had an entirely different
meaning. But it was this same Paul
who put taboo on debt, the kind
of debt that is illustrated in one of
the parallels of our Lord, from
which our heading is taken. Paul
says, "Owe no man anything This
plain command occurs in chapter
(Rom. 13) that deals with our OBJ
legations to our fellowman. We
are to pay others what is due them,
and not owe a financial debt. To
have a charge account at store or
shop when we know that we are 60
ing to have the money on demand,
would not seem to come under the
head of this New Testament prohi-
bition The advice of our wise men
is not to spend dollar until you
have earned dollar. This OF
course does not apply to invest
ments where you expect returns.
The point we are aiming at is that
if you are living too eXtrayaga gantly,
or beyond that which your income
iustifies, begin at once to curtail ex-
penses, and not start to running in
debt. When Noah Webster compiled
his great dictionary he said, "It is
