New York, Jan. 16--With re- spect to the stock market it has been fed this week with good news and bad news. but for the first time in many months 1t has taken n hopeful view of the situation. The reason for this, as outlined above. Is the knowledge that the railroad systems of the United States are no longer in danger of not being able to meet maturing obligations. It Is now definitely assured that solvent roads will receive all the government credit required, and with this knowledge people with means have not been slow to pick up the great bargains that the bond marekt has offered. Quite reversing the position which has prevailed. the demand from in- vestors has exceeded the floating supply and 1t Is believed that snv- ings banks and other institutions which have abstained from buying for many weeks past will before long re-enter the market, as going values are still most lucrative and attractive. This argument can also be used with regard to corporate shares which in many instances, 1t Is recognized, are selling well be- low intrinsic value. A bad feature which will prevent the market from running way, even if So in- clined, is of course the everlasting separations problem which seems to be meeting with obstacles as to settlement; but after all Germanys position. serious as 1t is, cannot be expected to affect the affairs of the world indefinitely. Rightly or
 wrongly people are now looking

Bank Head Praises
 Scout Thrift Plan
H. A. Bruere, Savings Bank Executive, Makes State-
 ment in Connection With Thrift Week Opening

New York, Jan 16--Saving is an art learned best like swimming and dancing, while one is young.
 This is the opinion of Henry A. Bruere, president of the Bowery Savings bank of New York city, who because of 1t, highly approves the thrift programs of the Boy and Girl Scout organizations. Each em- bodies thrift in one of It's ten laws and quite rightly, MT Bruere thinks, since 1t is subject in which young people have a nat ural interest. and everyone is ac- quiring much needed national interest as a result of the annual thrift week celebration, January 17-23.
 "There are 750.000 boys and girls at school in New York city who have savings accounts" MT Bruere said. "These boys and girls give little bits of money each week to have their own bank accounts. Why do they do this, do you sup pose? They don't expect to save enough to make themselves rich. They don't save very large sums at first. But they do save enough to have the feeling of saving some thing which can help them 10 do the thing that they most want to do when the time comes"
 The value of his becomes espe- cially evident during lean years, MT Bruere remarked. "Often the thing they want to do most is to give pleasure to their mothers who have helped them 10 save their pennies. To-day many are helping their mothers through hard times with their little savings.
 "But most of all they want to

 Monday
NOLLE FOR YOUNG MEN

Thor Hovda, 26, of Brooklyn, N. Y.. who has been in the custody of the police here since Thanksgiving night, was arraigned in police court to-day on the charge of automobile homicide.

Deficiency Bill
 Item Undisturbed
S48,S7z975 Provided By Veterans Administration for Compensation Intact Despite Reduction on Total Appropriation

Ing up tho deficiency appropria- ton consists of $I8.331,421 for disability compensation. $24,s73,- GS9 on account of disability allow ances and $5,1s2,12S for disburse- ments necessary to be made in the fiscal year of 1881 from the 1892 appropriation to cover the inefil- cicncy of the 1881 appropriation.
 Tho additional amount of dis ability compensation has resulted from an increase in tho average monthly number of awards attrib- uted largely to tho new law au- thorizing payment of claims for non service connected disa bilitles which came about by the filing of many new claims disclosing scr vice. connected disabilities. The ad- ditional $24,S73.6S0 on account of disability allowances is due large ly to lack of experience with this form of benefit at the time the original estimate was prepared. found in both cases that economic conditions of the country contrib uted to the development.

STATES ACT ON
 FRIGHTENING

Legislation designed to place at least some limitations on tho prac- tice of hiking both for tho purpose of protecting motorists from becoming victims of crim- inals and law suits and of protect- ing the transportation companies has been enacted In eight of the forty-eight states, according to an announcement by. the American Electric Railway Association. These states are Connecticut. Delaware, Maine, Minnesota. New Jersey, New York, oregon and Wisconsin.
 The Connecticut law. which was passed by the last session of the general assembly. doe. not prohibit thumblng rides from passing mo- torlsts. but merely makes the prac- tice slightly more difficult since the thumber must conduct his cam- paign from that portion of the highway which is beyond the pave- ment. It is left entirely to the dls- erection of the auto driver to de- eide whether or not to pick up the roadside petitioner and to judge for himself whether he Is worthy of befriendiDg or whether he is merely trying to save car rare.
 What Is more important in the opinion of n prominent automobile club official is for the motorist to determine whether tho thumber has criminal intentions. He says: Never before in the history of mos tor transportation has there been such great numbers of hitch.hlkers Tho majority of them are iaw.abid ing and appreciate Il lIft but tho small minority of criminals makes the practice of giving lifts to strangers a dangerous one. The safe way for tbs ear owner 10 pros teet himself and hIs family is t0 .ss0re the signals of those seeking ridas. There are numerous tnstancs es af theftA and even murders that have followed In the wake of mos torisx desiring t0 Elss strangers a lift. Motorists should also consider the fact that In a number Of states they are liable for any Injury that is given"

Washington, D. c. -. Although the first deficiency Appropriation Bill In Congress was reduced by the House more than $13,000. 900 from the total of S138,0O0, 900, recommended by the president, the $48,S72.975 provided for the Vet erans' Administration for compen- sation remained intact. The amount is in addition to the $267,327,076 already appropriated for the cur rent fiscal year. according to John Thomas Taylor, vice-chairman of the American Legion's national legislative committee.
 The deficiency appropriation was made necessary by tho fact that when the appropriation for this purpose was made last yeur. 1t was explained to Congress that information was not avail- able to estimate accurately the amount needed and that the estimate for 1892 was short, Mr.. Taylor said.

Marine Fleet Helps Much in Accept To-day-De-
 liver Tomorrow
LARGEST IN EAST

The New Haven railroads marine fleet, consisting of 120 units of vari- 0us types of floating equipment. plays an important part in the prompt and efficient transportation of freight between New England and points south and west.
 This fleet Is one of the largest marine agencies In eastern ship ping. tho railroad floating In It's interchange at New York with rail- ron ds on the New Jersey shore aud In It's pier deliveries a greater num- Der of freight cars q greater mum Der of miles than any other rail- road with entrance to New York. During the past Ave years the cars floated averaged approximately 210O per day. There have been a number of days when more than 36O0 cars were foated. In addition to this, the freight handled by tho steamships averaged over 2800 tons daily over 0 flve-year period. while in one month an average Of bO0 tons n day was maintained.
 In addition to feeding less-thnn- carload freight to through. main line trains, the New Haven's mo- tor trucks also fed freight from inland points to the boat lines, either directly to the piers or to boat trains at island points on the main line. In this way. shipments that formerly required two days Tor combined rail and boat trip are now rushed to the boat trains which make connections at the piers suf- flciently long before sailing time for loading. The shipments thus reach New York on the morning following their dispatch.

On the return of the five mention ed today five other young cops will be asked to take two weeks vacation.
 The i've named today were George Flavin. Nicholas Manzelle, Joseph Garvey, Leo McKenna and Albert Deresk evicze. They have been doing regular night duty. It is possible that some of the day men may be shifted to night work and the change will at least add considerable to the work of the night motor patrol.

PREDICT MUCH
 RAIN IN 1882
Three Years of SubnOrmal Fall Reason for Water
 Companies Hopes
OFF SINCE 1928

Unless Connecticut climate Is undergoing some mysterious alter ation at the hand of nature, 1892 on the law of averages alone should be a rainy year, 1t Is the opinion of those in charge of the states water supplies, who for the past three years have been forced to keep an anxious eye both on the water level in their reservoirs and on the weather charts.
 Not since 1928 has the rainfall in Connecticut been above the nor nal and the lack of precipitation has had corresponding effect upon the size of the water supply. Even at the present time, the water levels in the storage basin are well below the point they or dinary would have reached at this season. In the past three months, precipitation has been even less than 1t was in the corresponding period of 1890.
 That year of 1880 was the driest in the history of tn estate or at least since precipitation records were first started more than n cen- tury ago. The past year of 1881 DuS I1OL UbbH InuCu prItCIp tiIS twelve months rainfall record showing an increase over 1880 of less than five inches--less than half m inch per month more than the year which brought the most severe and most sustained rain shortage in history. In the past year, however, the dry spells have been intermittent rather than pro- longed, so that the intervening periods of rain helped to keep the reservoirs at nor econsistent levels throughout the year.
 After three years of dryness, company officials believe that the swing of the cycle may have near ed completion and that the new year, barring the possibility Of a freaklsh climatic change, may be expected to bring more abundant rainfall. The heavy precipitation of 1928 followed upon similar cycle of more or less dry years.
