LIBERTY BONDS
RULE STEADY

NEW YORK, June 18 G.N.SD. .
q. S. Government obligations held
barely steady as the session on
the bond market drew to a close
today. Most of the issues of the
list were behind minus signs, but
losses were slight. Activity was
on par with that of the first
two hours yesterday.
Liberty 3hs were off 1872 at
100.26, first 4As off 1872 at 1O1. .1S.
and the fourth 4l2s unchanged at
1922. Treasury, 4As were off
1-32 at 1O422, 33ss of 1947 off
4-32 at 97.28, 33ss of 1910 off 3,32
at 98.17, 33ss of 194l off 1872 at
98, 31sS up 1872 at 1921, and the
IS up 1872 at 92.21.
The listed market, influenced
by the favorable turn in the
gold movement, strength in the
stock, and sugar market, turned
in a fairly creditable performance
this week.
While the gains were pared
down to the vanishing point by
profit taking towards the close of
the final full session the action
of the market was good consider
ing it had to contend with such
factors as the bonus legislation,
the Lausanne conference and the
Republican convention.
Action of the market as gagged
by the averages shows a slight
advance. The Dow, Jones figures
now stand at $70.92 against
$7O.49 a week ago, and $94.95 a
year ago. The standard Statis-
tics figures closed at $61.2O
against SOL week ago and $94.3O

ANOTHER TRIAL
FOR RALLY IS
SEEN DUE
BY WALL STREET SPECTATOR

BY WALL STREET SfECAhAON
NEW YORK, June 18 U.N.SO .
The market had its downs yester-
day after having had mostly ups
for a week. Stocks looked pretty
bad but it would not be surpris-
ing if appearances we're worse
than the actuality, as support was
beginning to make it's appearance
in the leaders around their lows.
Selling is understood to have
been largely professional, with a
good deal Of short selling mixed
in.
Support Is Needed
So it's just as we'll to withhold
conclusions and see how they act
today. Stronger support should
appear on a further reaction if
any large-scale decline is to be
avoided.
1t doesn't seem logical, though,
that the sponsors of the advance
will give up the ghost without at
least on more try.
If for no other reason they
must be pretty we'll hung up with
stocks and will naturally want to
put them higher. OF course, the
wheat break is disturbing, and
omission of the dividend by Sears
Roebuck isn't an optimistic aug
ury on the trend in grains.
BallyhOO Silenced
A bullish factor was that no
one in the official Washington
family came out with any bally-
hoo. After the last crop report,
as Chairman Stone, of the Fed
eral Farm Board, did after the
May l forecast.
At that time, when he predicted
a 10-cent rise, he must have been
looking the wrong way.

FISHING IN OHIO NOT SPORT
OF YORE, DR.. ROSE DISCOVERS
''Where's Your License" Greeting Instead of "Hows
Luck" Says Veterans Hospital Official, Fined.

When little Eddie Rose went fishing,
years ago, in the good old fishin' hole
in the creek near his home in Ironton,
Ohio, he gave no thought to fishing
licenses or other such legal folderol. 1t
Is likely that he never suspected that
such things as fishing licenses existed.
He just went fishing there in the lazy
Summer days and If any one interrupted
him it usually was merely to inquire
"how's the fishing?"
But. when in 1882, DR.. Edwin j. Rose.
now medical supervisor of the general
medical hospitals, United States Veter-
ans Administration, goes fishing in the
same old fishing holes of his childhood,
he finds conditions much different.
DR.. Rose Is spending his vacation
back in Ironton as the guest of Repre-
sentative T. A. Jenkins. He longed to
see the fishing holes of his boyhood and,
giving no thought to the legal barriers
which have been placed In the way Of

Hass then turned back in the other
direction and ran all the way to the
third base dugout, where his teammates
were quartered. Seeing Hoffman was
still pursuing him, he apparently gave
up in despair and sat down. Hoffman
hesitated for a moment and then threw
the ball to first where the put out was
made.
The firemen scored their second and
last run in the third inning, when
Burthe walked and Hass, coming up for
the second time, tripled to center. The
f1remen might have scored second
run, but Hass, showing a revival of his
first inning energy, was out at the
plate trying to stretch his triple into
homer. Snow, the next man up, was
safe on an error.
The police scored one run In the
fifth and one in the sixth on five walks
and lone hit.

The stranger handed over a nickel,
perhaps a dime. The distressed "bud-

There are limitations to the tele-
phone trick, however. The panhan-
dler who works it must have reasonably
good clothes and good approach, and
the profits usually are limited to
nickel, dime, or at best quarter
contribution for each effort. Some
tricks bring bigger pay, but the tele-
phone joke remains popular among the
small time workers.
There are others of its ilk.

In Washington there is not man
who cannot get car fare to any job he
can find, food, shelter and probably
clothing if he will apply to an organized
charity. That is the boast of the local
relief organizations. The panhandlerS,
they say, are men who will not work

otherwise exert themselves to exist.

falls for it. So the 'unemployables
