Fear Bull Market

None knew how long the rise
would be maintained. Brokers them
selves hoped that no major bull
market or boom would develop, lest
it rear sudden topheavy struc-
ture that would be shaken down on
the next trifle of Encouragement.
But Friday-although at slower
pace and with only 100000 shares
changing hands, the market tone
was up. The preferred stocks OF
United States Steel closed at 7O34
up 81 points New York Central
was up 23s to 1874; Delaware &
Hudson up 4 to sac; Colorado &
Southern up 4 to Gan increase OF
close to 100 per cent in value for
the day. National Lead sold at sc,
up y.
Yet, despite these gains, many
old favoriteS shared in the advance
but meagerly. Dupont, which
spurted forward Thursday increased
only half a point in value; General
Motors rose only e to 1919; en-
couraging, however, to those who
have seen the stock hanging around
8 and in the last few weeks.
Slips Quarter Point
international Telephone was I'M
changed in the days trading, Beth
lehem Steel, on overnight news of
its passed preferred dividend,
slipped off a quarter point to IS.
According to preliminary calcu-
lation, the Dow Jones & Co. indus
trial average stood at 1898, up 1.27
points; rails 21.59, up 1875, and util-
tiles 22.79, up los.
Sales totaled 100000 shares COM
pared with 2,7OOOOO Thursday.
Aggregate value of ten leading
stocks was $4,782, 4O4,52O, against
$4,649, 633,115 Thursday, an increase
of $132, POS.
After a brief rest in the morning,
the advance in the market was re-
sumed in suspicious fashion around
the noon hour and gradually gained
momentum. Shortly before the
close issues were at the best levels.
Gains in active stocks ranged up
to 5 points, but in the inactive is
sues they ran as high as II points.
Activity was we'll under Thursday
however, sales approximating two
million shares, against 2,700,000
shares Thursday, which set new
peak for the current year.

SOLUTION OF ECONOMIC PROBLEMS
DECLARED UP TO BANK OFFICIALS

LOS ANGELES, June 8. WP)-
Responsibility for solving the coun-
trys economic problems was placed
upon the shoulders of the nations
bankers today in addresses before
the annual convention of the AM
erican Institute of Banking.
Young bankers of the United
States, to whose training the in
stitute devotes its efforts, were ap-
pealed TO for a policy of more lib
eral credit and sympathetic re-
sponse to the efforts of business.
Through the general session, at
tended by 1900 delegates, and the
departmental conferences, ran the
theme OF. increased responsibility.
White-haired, sturdy Henry j.
Mergler of Cincinnati, retiring pres
ident, urged bankers to base their
future activities mot on shifting
sands, but upon bedrock to meet
the responsibility of solving the
country'S economic problems.
Just doing the job is not enough" "
he said. I'VE must do twice as
much"

.WAGNER'S
MEASURE
Senate Reports FavOrably
On Proposed Unem-
plOyment Relief Bill.
SEEK COMPROMISE
Leaders Of Upper House
Hoping For Agreement
With Garnerites.

WASHINGTON, June 8. UP)-
The senate banking and currency
committee today rendered a favor
able report on the s2,000,0 100000
Wagner unemployment relief bill.
The action began the senate eff
fort to work out a compromise re-
lief plan after passage of the
S2,300,000000 Garner bill by the
house yesterday.
Senator Barkley (Dem) Ken
lucky, said the senate committee
voted on the Wagner bill, which
contains bond issue proposals to
which President Hoover is opposed,
was to 4.
The committee voted, 8 to 6,
against making loans to private
industries from the funds which
would be made available by the
measure.
Barkley said the section of the
Wagner bill providing for loans up
to S300,000,000 by the reconstruction
finance corporation to states for
relief would be introduced as sep
arate measure.
AN attempt will be made to Sc
cure a vote on this today" he
said

Diversified Gang
Wars Upon Fish

1t is probably highly fortunate
for the finny population of the Pa
cific ocean in the vicinity of San
Diego that the fish clan has no
highly organized system of society,
for such a systeM might have given
the fish some idea of what was adj
vancing upon them yesterday from
Ell Centro in the form of fishing
party.
Could the fish have understood
that two physicians, an undertaken,
a coroner and a druggist ganged
together against the scaly denizens
of the deep, it is possible many
might have given up hope with
out a battle, taking some form of
fishy poison in quick suicide at
tempt.
Members of the party were Dr.
Phillip Hodgkin, DR.. L. c. House,
Coroner A. R. Underwood, Under
taker Burt Lemons and Druggist
w. c. Clements.
The combination, at that proved
highly effective, for the five men
returned to Ell Centro this morning
with 16 members of the yellowtail
tribe, boasting nightly of their
proweSs and of the tasty flavor
of the fish.

RUMOR ASSERTS
MISSING FLYER
ALIVE ON ISLAND

MANILA, June 8. U.p)-Stories
of Robinson Crusoe of the air,
castaway on tiny, northernmost
island in the Philippines when his
plane crashed on an attempted
Macao to Manila flight last year
were checked by authorities today.
The Robinson CruSoe of the ad-
venture, according to Aleko Lilius,
an adventure writer and associate
editor of the English section of the
Manila Fookien Times, may be
Glenn Brophy, given up as lost
March %, 1881.
Brophy, announcing plans for es-
tablishment of Shanghai to Man.
liza air mail service, set out for
Manila from the Portuguese island
of Macao, and was never heard
from again.
Destroyers and United States
naval plane hunted for him among
the hundreds of islands which form
the Philippine group, but no trace
was found of him or his plane.
Lilius, who recently returned from
a trip to number of small islands
north of Luzon, declared that ma
tives of the region told him of ru-
mors that stranger, accompanied
by a black dog, had been seen
among the natives of Yami Island.
Yami is small, wild, and totally
savage island, inhabited by pagans
with whom other islanders never
associate.
Police were reported by Lilius to
be making a check among the ma
tives of Itbayat Island concerning
the rumors. Brophy's plane might
have been forced down and drifted
to the island, it was said, and the
flyer might have succeeded in re-
naming alive there.

FORMER HEAD OF
GIGANTIC POWER
COMPANY BROKE
insult Will Retire To Es-
tate In England On
Pension.
BY HARRISON SALISBURY
United Press Staff Correspondent

CHICAGO, June 8. = The abdi-
cation of Samuel insult from his
So, 900 100000 utilities empire today
become complete.
The silyer-haired 73-year- -old
father of the modern public utility
system today severed the last links
which bound him to the enormous
organization which he in large
part created.
He resigned as an officer and
director Of Sc corporations. The
act followed closely his resignation
as co-receiver OF the massive Mid
die West Utilities Co., his collapsed
holding corporation, and as chair
man of the board of the three In
sull operating concerns and their
subsidiaries.
His personal fortune gone, heav-
lily indebted by his losing fight to
save his vast domain, insult will
retire in the near future, probably
to England, the land he left as a
youthful protege of Thomas A. Ed
ison to start his meteoric rise.
Most ironic of all, the man whose
wizardry with billions brought him
personal fortune of 100000, 900
will leave Chicago a pensioner of
the companies which depression
whisked from his grasp.
It is not expected the aged fin
ancier will be forced to undergo the
humiliation of bankruptcy, though
the ledgers will show him indebted
to the extent of S10,000,000. In
stead, bankers and creditors have
arranged that each of the three
large insult operating units, Com
monwealth Edison Co., Public Ser
vice Co., of northern Illinois and
Peoples Gas Light g. Coke Co.,
will provide $4,000 year for the
man whose genius is responsible
for their success.
insult has an estate at Reading,
Eng, on the Thames and it is prob
able he will go there although
friends said he might take pro-
longed rest in Paris.
Friends of the man whose name
was synonymous with amazing sue
cess are determined to spare as far
as possible the bitterness of his de-
| feat which came about, they assert
through his determination that not
a dollar of his own would be spared
in an effort to protect insult in
vestorS from loss.
1t was this determination, they
said, that led to creation of the
vast holding corporations which
were wrecked by collapse of the Sc
curities market. These corporations
into which insult poured million
after million were organized large
ly to retain control of the operat-
ing units in the hands which built
them to success.

BICKEL. DECLARES
EUROPE WATCHES
UNITED STATES

NEW YORK, June 8. U.P)-The
American system of government is
facing its greatest test in the elec-
tions this year, European statesmen
believe, Karl A. Bickel, president
of the United Press, declared today
following his return from abroad.
Continental observers, Bickel said,
feel that a tremendous opportunity
for worldwide economic and politi-
cal leadership confronts the United
States, "if we have the brains and
managing capacity to grasp it," IN
terest in the national party con-
ventions is the greatest in Europe
since 1916, Bickel reported.
Europeans" ne said, "are not
particularly interested in personal
tiles involved in the conventions,
but they are curious to know
whether these great gatherings of
Americans will indicate a power of
decision and sense of reality in
meeting grave fiscal problems
ahead.
VERY frequently in important
governmental circles you will heal
the opinion that. after the inaug-
uration of a new president, if not
sooner, the chief executive will con-
Stitute his cabinet on entirely non
political lines and, in effect, ad-
minister the government on a ma
tional coalition basis, thus secur-
ing the administrative power of the
best minds in America"
The average European business
leader regards the United States
as the worlds most favored nation,
Bickel said. He also paid a high
tribute to Ambassador Walter E.
Edge, who negotiated the new COM
mercial agreement with France.
This achievement" Bickel asserted,
will save American trade several
million dollars a year"

fore Judge I. Mayfield this morn
ing in answer to a traffic citation
charging careless driving, issued
by E. j. Weatherbie, state traffic
officer.
Instead Weatherbie appeared. In
the traffic docket was brief no
tation that the defendant was
killed in an automobile accident 80
minutes after the ticket was issued.
For Dick Richards was the name
assumed by George Zavetz, of Perth
Amboy, N. j., when he came to CAL
ifornia. Zavetz died at the county
hospital last week from injuries
suffered in an accident south of
Imperial two weeks ago.
Five other traffic cases were list
ed on the justice court docket to-
day. -Four of those cited made
their appearance by mail, and one
appeared yesterday afternoon.
Van Howell of Jacumba appeared
yesterday afternoon on a charge
of driving car on which no certi-
ficate was displayed, and driving
without an operators license. He
was fined $40, and the fine sus-
pended.
Max Howard Bonar and Bert NJ
Young, drivers for a Phoenix ex-
press company, were fined SIS for
driving overloaded trucks, after
writing to Judge Mayfield. They

fined $40 for driving on the wrong
side of the road. This also was
done by mail.
Harry j. Green of Los Angeles
wrote in behalf of Gerald R. Barth,
also of Los Angeles, who was cited
for speeding. Barth was driving
Green's car, and the latter return
ing from Yuma, where he had been
married, when the ticket was is
sued. A fine Of $40 was imposed.
Imperial Valley press., 1932-06-08

"As people, we have defaulted
IN our responsibility because we
have been too ready to believe in
Santa Claus and in the comfort
able doctrine that things would be
all right" Arthur K. Schultz. ma
tional comptroller of the Chase Ma
tional Bank of the City of New
York, told the meeting.
There is a defalcation of spirit
as we'll as of funds. We have, as
a people, assumed that everything
would be all right, irrespective of
how fast we expanded our capital
assets and careless of whether or
not the products thereof could be
sold at proper prices"
He urged more adequate sys-
tenn of control, both in banks and
in their relations with the public.
Hope For Future
Harold G.. Parker. vice president
of the Standard Statistics COM
pany of New York expressed hope
for the future.
Those who have the courage and
ability to buy high grade bonds vt
present prices will doubtless realize
substantial profits" he said.
Addressing a conference on in
vestmentS, Robert U. Frey assistant
treasurer of the Pennsylvania COM
pany for insurance on lives and
granting annuities, said, when any
material increase in traffic occurs.
the railroads will be in a position
to profit in a degree never ap-
preached in their history"
Gov. James Rolph, Jr., welcomed
the delegates. Frank N. Hall, of
the Federal Reserve Bank at st.
Louis, Mo-, and Albert S. Puelicher.
of the Marshall and Ilsley Bank,
Milwaukee, Wis, were considered
elected president and vice. president
of the institute, as they were the
only ones nominated. Formal cleo
ton will be conducted Friday.
Conferences and a trip to Cata-
lima Island are on the program to-
day.

FunstOn's Widow
Dies On Coast

SAN FRANCISCO, June 8. W.P)-
The sudden death of Mrs. Eda
Blankart Funston, widow of Maj.
Gen. Frederick F.. Funston was
mourned in army and navy circles
today.
The widow of the little general
died in a local hospital last night.
She had suffered a heart attack
Sunday, but her recovery had been
expected by physicians.
Since the death of her famous
husband in 1917, Mrs. Funston has
taken a prominent part in civic
work. The Funston name is per-
petuated in the city by Funston
avenue, Funston playground and
Fort Funston. The city held itself
indebted to General Funston for
his outstanding work in restoring
order as a military commander
after the disastrous earthquake and
fire in 1906.
Mrs. Funston was born in Ohio
SIS years ago. She met and mar
ried General Funston in Oakland
in 1893. Their marriage was one
of the romances of the Spanish
American war.

REFUNDINC PLAN
PRESENTED BY
DISTRICT BOARD
Would Require Election
By People To Be Placed
In Effect.

Extension of maturities of I'm
perial Irrigation district bond prin-
cipal for the years 1882, 1888 and
1884 is hoped to result from an
attempt to trade bond for bond OF
the new proposed bonds for those
maturing, the move he.ng made
desirable on account of the general
economic situation.
AS a result of a resolution passed
this week by the district board OF
directors, the matter will be laid
before the California districts Sc
curities commission. In the event
of approval on the part of the
commissioners, the matter will be
brought to the attention of the in
dividual bondholders for their ap-
proval. Should a sufficient num-
ber consent, an election would be
called some time in July, according
to district officials.
This move on the part of the
board is what is known as a ire
funding plan and is a common
practice among private corporations
and not unusual for public corpora
tions. If these bonds are issued,
they will be known as Issue No.
Refunding Bonds" and will create
no new obligation.
In effect, the plan is postpone
ment of payment of principal on
the third issue bonds of $1,05O 900
as yet unpaid. OF this sum, $780,
900 falls due in 1882 and $500
in 1888 and 100000 in 1884. The
extension does not effect the in
terest on the bonds
The new bonds would be 20-year
sinking fund bonds maturing in
1852 and would be of the some de-
nomination and same rate of in
terest as the old ones. The interest
would be at 5l4 per cent.
Emergency Move
If the extension meets with the
approval of those concerned, it is
expected to be possible to tide the
district over the present bad eco
nomic period.
The project is declared to be an
emergency move and if successful
would prevent default in payment
of both bond principal and interest.
If relieved of the payment of the
principal, the district would not ex-
pect to have much difficulty in
meeting interest payments.
RondhOlderS would have tn he
contacted and with the cooperation
of these holders and the people re-
siding within the district, the plan
is expected to be a successful one.
The proposed election would re-
quire a majority vote, all qualified
electors of the district being eligible
to vote.

WASHINGTON, June 8. U.P)-
The bonus expeditionary force to-

ing the question of where food is

A mass meeting was called to

States Communism
Active In China

SHANGHAI, June 8. (U.P)-Genu-
inc Communism prevails in areas
along the Upper Yangtze river,
Captain Charles Baker, seaman who
returned here after being held cap
tive by bandits in the region, re-
ported today.
Captain Baker said his captors
shared their land, labor and income
along scientific lines laid down by
Communism. He said he had been
invited to work in the garden of
his abductors during the last por-
ton of his captivity, on the theory
that his productive stay in the
colony placed an unfair burden on
its other members.
He was generally we'll treated, liv-
ing on a fairly plentiful and nour-
ishing diet of fish and rice, he said.
Two Chinese famine relief engi-
neers who negotiated his release
were detained by the bandits. Ten
such officials are now in the hands
of bandits at various points.

Japanese Woman
Reveals Tragedy
OF Love Triangle

LOS ANGELES, June 8. U.R-
A tragic Oriental triangle, in which
a 3-year-old child was sacrificed
on the altar of illicit love, was in
scribed on police records today fol-
lowing an asserted confession.
Dramatically pointing to spot
in the chicken yard of a Torrance
ranch, the mother told deputy
sheriffs I'VE buried her there!" and
was said to have admitted murder
during an attempt at suicide in
retribution for sin.
Thus the hunt of R. Kanda,
Japanese, for his 3-year-old daugh-
ter, Molly, was ended. Digging in
the soft earth, officers found her
body buried there.
Kanda had sought his child
since he complained to police that
he had found his wife living with
j. Hatomoto, alias Kogi, at the
ranch following her disappearance
last December.
The child was not with them, he
said, and asked help of officers
when the two told varying stories
of what had happened to her.
After adroit questioning, Mrs.
Kanda broke down, began to weep,
and, according to officers, said in
effect:
1--WE regretted our sin. We de-
cided to kill ourselves in accord
ance with our own law. We turned
on the gas, but we couldn't stand
it and ran out. The baby didn't
move. We tried to revive her. She
was dead. We buried her three feet
down in a little grave"
