BY PRINCE LOUIS FERDINAND.

BY PRINCE LOUIS FERDINAND.
NEW YORK, December 8 (N.AN.A.).-
AS I leave the United States today to
spend the holiday season with my family
in Germany, carry with me certain
definite impressions of this country in
which I feel have learned so much
and to which shall return.
Having only passed by 25th birthday
anniversary, such views as have may
be regarded here as just those of a
young man. In Germany, where the
youth movement has drawn so many of
its recruits from those of 19 and 20,
already belong almost to an earlier gen.
Grafton.
Comparing Europe and America, it
seems to me that the attitude here
toward youth is more tolerant and
kindly. People in America are more
willing to listen to youths ideas and
ideals. Before the youth movement
gained such impetus abroad the opin-
ions of those In their early 20s were not
held to be mature or experienced enough
to merit attention.
In Europe, age always tried to make
itself more impressive. Here, youth
tries to be old and age tries to bs
young.
America More Conservative.
Youth in Germany still shows the
effect of undernourishment during the
last years of the war. AS result,
feel that it Is a little averaged. 1t has
seen its institutions tumble and has
lived through period of instability. II
therefore is natural that it should have
grown somewhat metaphysical ano
skeptical.
Young America is still confident, still
believes in the solidity and permanence
of its institutions. And for that rea-
son, it is more conservative.
Associations between the sexes appear
to me to be very much the same here
as in Germany. Young men and young
women mingle with the same freedom
and have the same natural friendships
sometimes forbidden by the customs Of
Latin countries. There is the same
sound comradeship, although in Ger
many the girls perhaps are little
less inclined to have practical inten-
tions. mean that they do not think
quite so much about marriage. More
Of them are ambitious for other careers
Not only is there more dancing here
and have found American girls beau
tiful dancers, but dancing seems to
have different place in the life OF
the community. In the United States
it seems to me to be natural express
sion of style of life. I might almost
say 1t is symbolic of the soul. 1t has
q distinguishing rhythm and gayety.
Abroad. except for certain folk dances
dancing is more of social formality.
Easy to Make Friends.
The fact that there may be more
drinking among young people In the
United States does not impress me as
much as the Importance attached to it.
Drinking in Germany is one of those
matters too unimportant to furnish a
subject of conversation
think it is easier to meet persons in
this country on a free and friendly
basis. In Europe matters have been
in an institutional relationship for so
long that there has not been the same
opportunity for simple human relation
ship. Here two persons may become
friends without knowing just what each
others exact standing or occupation
may be.

This is how it all came about. The

deer and it was up to him to deliver
them from his ranch in Western Alaska.
LINEN, here for visit from Nome,
said the long walk began in 1929. As
the crow flies, the distance to be COW
cred is 1000 miles, but, as the reindeer
goes, it is 1900, he estimated. Some
days the herd advances a mile. while
on others perhaps the mileage mounts
to 18.
More than three -fourths of the dis
tance is behind the skiing herdSmen.
Lonen said the herd viii be delivered

NEW YORK, May 1.-THE Curb Ex-
change opened higher today and re-
tanned that trend during the first hour,
after which prices drifted lower. Vol
ume of trading increased on the bulge
and decreased on the decline.
Electric Bond g. Snare at 1919 was up
only a small fraction. Cities Service
was unchanged. American Gas g. Elec-
trio at 2612 was up slightly, as was Nj
agara Hudson Power at Az. Standard
Oh of Indiana retained initial gains
that took it through the 1s level.
Petroleum and public utility shares
led the market in point Of activity.
Oils retained their initial advances as,
aside from the weekly gain in crude
output, the industry statiStically I'M
proved. Power and light issues eaSed
following publication of the weekly elec-
trical production figures.
The decline of 1877 per cent in cleo
trical production was the biggest drop
OF any week thus far this year. The
central industrial region, with a de-
crease Of 1853 per cent, showed the
widest decline while the Atlantic sea-
board, of only 89 per cent, had the
smallest drop.
April sales Of stores for the most part
were unfavorable. Lerner Stores showed
a decline of 15.9 per cent and Schif
Co. Of 27.9 per cent from the same
month year ago. However, prelimi-
nary data compiled from department
store sales all over the country indicate
that the gain from March to April was
greater than the seasonal estimate.

BONDS IRREGULAR
Z IN LIGHT TRADING
u. S. Government Long-Term
Issues Score Gains in
Brisk Buying.
BY F. H. RICHARDSON.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, May 1.-THE bond
market pursued an irregular course to-
day in quiet trading.
After a steady opening the markets
trend was not clearly defined, except
for United States Government long
term issues. These advanced from IA
to y point on fairly brisk buying. Al
though well known statistical service
today advised that the position of
1on-term Governments was weak, be-
cause of the continued failure Of Gen.
gress to achieve something in the way
of budget balancing, 1t was apparent
that the Federal Reserve was far from
abandoning its policy of bidding heav-
lily for Treasury and Liberty issues.
Bill rates were reduced again, which
further helped along the shorter de-
scriptions, such as Liberty 312s, Liberty
fourth 4l4s and Treasury notes and
bills.
Omission of the New York Central
common dividend. ordinarily a develop
ment beneficial to a roads bonds. was
tempered as a market influence by re-
ports of poor April earnings. At the
same time New York Central 3l2s, an
underlying bond of firm intrinsic value
and therefore little likely to be disturbed
by anything but an unfavorable long
view of the company's future, gained a
point. Other seasoned railroad issues
like AtchiSon General As and Union
Pacific first Is were little changed,
American Telephone 5s, New York
Telephone 412s and a few of the more
conservative utility obligations were
firm Western Union SIS gained a point.
In the speculative list international
Cement IS dipped more than 2 points.
Skelly Oil SIPS were point higher.
National Dairy products 5 5l4s continued
their recovery.
European bonds were still mildly un-
settled by the French elections. Con-
tinental exchanges seemingly expect
some Paris liquidation if Edouard Her
riot becomes premier and decides to
rely on Socialist support. Italy rs
dropped point as bids were withdrawn
in the face of reported 100000, 600
lire budget deficit. Continued murmurS
Of transfer moratorium in Austria un-
settled Central European descriptions,
notably Austrian rs, Hungary 7l2s, Po-
land rs and Serbian rs.
German government SIPS and Is
eased off in reflection of Chancellor
Bruening's pointed pronouncement that
Germany's economic future depends on
the complete cancellation Of her war
debts. Deutsch Bank 6S, German Cen
tral Bank 6s and a few German munich
pal bonds followed.
Brazilian government 613s were / to
points higher, but there was no sympa-
thetic improvement in other South
American issues.
