TREND ON CURB
IS DOWNWARD

NEW YORK, Jan. % G.N.SD.
Increased pressure of offerings
today broke the stalemate previ-
ously existent in curb market deal
ings, and resulted in a general
downward movement of prices.
Electric Bond and Share was
subjected to the heaviest pressure
in the utility group, receding to
it's lowest level in some weeks at
1914, a net decline of p point
from its previous close. American
Gas and electric dropped back a
point to 33, American Light and
Traction was off a point at 112,
and declines of the customary
fractionary extent were prevalent
in the run of low-priced issues.
Oils we're fractionally depressed,
with Gulf, Standard of Indiana
and Standard of Kentucky off

pressure in the investment trust

COTTON MART.
MODERATELY
EASIER

NEW YORK, Jan. % G.N.SD.
The cotton market displayed mod.
erately easier tendencies in to-
days session.
The volume of activity was re-
stricted, with the quiet but per.
sistent setback in values during
the past few days resulting in a
range of more than so cents a
bale for many of the future
months. July, for example, was
quoted today at a level of 6.94,
after reaching TOT on Tuesday,
and declines of corresponding
proportions were prevalent else
where in the list.
Foreign Consumption Gains
A leading cotton house fore
cast world consumption of Amer.
lean cotton this season at 13,5OO,.
600 bales, against 11,113,000 con.
surned in the season 1880 to
1881. The forecast is based on
a 10 per cent increase in con-
sumption in this country, and
an estimated replacement of In.
dian cotton by American of
10000 bales. The firm further
stated that with a general i'm.
provement in trade, world con-
sumption of American cotton
could easily exceed 100000
bales during the current season.
Around the noon hour, March
was off 4 points at $50, May off

MARKET DRIFTS
LOWER IN DULL
SESSION
By w. S. COUSINS

NEW YORK, Jan. % Q.N.S0.
All sections Of the stock market
drifted downward to slightly lower
prices in a dull and featureless
market today. Further delay in
the railroad wage negotiations,
tardiness in the business recov'
cry and warlike manifestations,
in Manchuria were the main fac
tors influencing the selling of
stocks by professionals and out
side traders.
The market was extremely dull
In the first period, with only 100,-
900 shares passing through in the
first half hour. The rails turned
reactionary, in contrast to the
firm trend with which they wound
up the previous session and gave
up a point or two of yesterdays
late gains.
InduStrialS Decline
The industrials joined the
sluggish downward move in the
second hour. American Telephone
fell off about a point to 111s and
United States Steel lost about a
point. In the railroad group, New
Haven fell off 1A to 20 and New
York Central lost point at 20.
Baltimore and Ohio, Southern
Railway, Atchison, Union Pacific
and other well-known rail stocks
declined a point on the average.
After a sharp squirt in the early
trading, featured by a rise in
Nickel Plate IS to 81, the railroad
bond list sagged off to lower
prices and we're joined in the
move by a number of the indus
trial and Government bonds,
Range Narrow
The narrowest Of price move
ments were recorded in the prin-
cipal commodities, including grain
and cotton. Money rates were un-
changed, with call loans in supply
at 2h per cent. Near the noon
period the stock market slowed
up, but prices in the leaders
showed little inclination to rally.
United States Steel, at 375s,
showed a loss of l point from yes
terday's close.

ORATORY WINNER
BACK FROM TRIP
Miss Sadie Says Experiences
of Two Months Were
Wonderful.

Miss Minnie Sadie, the Business
High School senior who talked herself
into honors. cash reward and an eight
weeks trip to Europe when she won The
Star area finals of the National Ora
torical Contest last Spring, has re-
turned to Washington.
With two months of exciting travel
behind her and college course she will
begin in February ahead, Miss Sadie
terms the tour with the other national
zone oratorical winners "a wonderful
experience" and greater reward. we all
agreed, than We could ever deserve
even for the hard work we did to win"
Miss Sadie. who had never been to
Europe before, although her mother Is
of English and her father of German
descent. saw both those countries and
five others. besides. as she Travelled.
With her went Miss Murial Herzstein
winner Of the New York zoner John H.
Jarman. jr., of Oklahoma City. the
Midwestern zone champion; John P.
Ansley of Birmingham, Ala, the
Springfield, Mass, winner in the
Northeastern zone. DR.. and Mrs. Glen
L. Swiggett acted as chapermes for the
party, as they have done for many.
years in the past.
new experiences Ouhu.
In every country they found new
sights and experiences to broaden the
views they had formed in studying the
history and government of America,
the girl orator said. Their special pre-
dilections also found Intellectual sub
stance to feed upon, almost more than
they could digest in a single trip.
Miss Sadie for example. is an art
-, Nd fhorofOro iptaroSfod
in sculpture and painting. In Rome
London. Paris. Munich and every place
they visited she found more to see and
more to learn. she said.
Others in the party found architec-
ture. archaeology, history or government
most fascinating in each country, and
in every case there was ample oppor-
tunity to pursue those subjects. The
tour moved without a fixed itinerary,
the wishes of the students being con-
suited as they Travelled and the route
planned to satisfy the greatest number
Diversions Are Numerous.
All their time was not passed in
sightseeing by any means, Miss Sadie
asserted. In Heidelberg they bought
students caps, in France they collected
wooden shoes and shopped when their
purses and Paris prices could reach a
compromise. In LONDON, Rome, SW1tZer-
land. wherever they went. the opera,
theaters, automobile jaunts and shop
ping expeditions played an important
part in their activities.
1t was no easy task to win her way
to first honors in The Star area, where
hundreds of high school students of
Washington, Maryland and Virginia
compete for the zone championship,
Miss Sadie said, reviewing her efforts
in the contest, but the rewards are twice
again worth the fight. To see Rome,
Paris. Cologne, Munich. Amsterdam,
Florence-any one Of them would be
enough, she says. To see them all Is,
as she puts it, nothing short Of Won
derful.
Miss Sadie expects to enter college
in New York at the February term.
She will prepare herself to become a
teacher.
