Financing Sets Record.
Special Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, March l7.-Much Of the
uncertainty that has been overhanging
the investment market was removed in
the past week The war debts question,
while it was far from solved in a man
ner satisfactory to all concerned, was
at least put behind as an immediate
market influence and the financial dis
trict was free to consider factors closer
to home.
The result was firm tone in high
grade bonds and higher prices fer second
and third grade descriptions, which re-
hected the trend in stocks. Trading
remained quiet, but the market had
much improved undertone.
Some indication of the investment
demand in the market was to be gath
cred not only from the bids for large
blocks of prime corporation issues placed
under the market. but from the over
subscription of the latest Treasury
which New York state disposed Of its
$50, 100000 Offering. The TreaSury'S
offerings Of s60O,OOO,O 900 in one-year 3. s
and four-year 2s4s was subscribed l6
times. This broke all existing records
for subscriptions and for the cheap
ness of the accommodation from the
Treasury's point Of view.
New York State sold its serial bonds
on basis, to the public, Of 3. per cent
for the 1-year maturities, en- rising
scale to 315 per cent on the 50-year
maturities These prices rivaled the
United States Treasury's accomplish
ment.
Conclusions to be drawn from this
cogent evidence Of the continuance OF
the easy money market are, first, that
investors, individual and corporate, buy
ing these descriptions do not fear
eventual imitation, for the first ref1ec-
ton of coming currency in f1ation would
be found in heaviness in high-grade
bonds of this type; and, second. that
the movement into higher-yield securi-
ties which was in evidence in September
and october has received a decided
check.

Markets Calm Behavior.

Compared with the happenings IN
this country and In other parts of the
world, from october. 1929, to last July.
the so-called bearish news in the past
six months has been relatively unim-
portant. Toward this, however, there
has been an attitude on the part Of
wall Street of accepting it quietly and
not permitting it to prejudice its point
of view that the general run Of securi-
ties had been so much Debated that
current prices are in most cases the
equivalent of intrinsic worth. 1t has
been surprising the last three months
how many stocks have advanced after
their dividends were reduced or omitted

"The Show Must Go On"

1t seems to me that you should know
That life is only continuous show.
We are the actors, good or bad
And make the show sad or glad,
One of us may not know our part
But think so deep down in our heart
The audience applauds not knowing
the lines
Think we are doing fine.
Should we the only ones in the know,
Be selfish enough to break up the
show,
Send away, happy contented crowd
Who have just applauded us-out loud
Whose thoughts towards us are kind
and true
Believing everything we said was out
of the blue,
Praising our acting, hanging on each
word,
Knowing we were the pick of the
herd.
To them it was not possible for us to
err
Though among ouselves-one is con.
sidered a cur.

Little Colds Open
Way For Serious
Illness---Dr. Knox
Warns Parents Against Neglect
Of Slight Colds, Directions
Are Helpful Preventatives

In reminder to mothers, that the
''little cold" if neglected, may open the
way for serious illness, DIR. ]. II. M.
Knox, Jr., Chief Of the Bureau of
Child Hygiene of the State Depart
ment of Health, says, "If your child
begins to sniffie, if his nose runs, and
he becomes languid and irritable, put
him to bed, give him a liquid diet,
plenty of water, and call your doctor.
Untreated and neglected colds often
lead to serious illnesses.
"The trouble may begin with a sore
throat or cough. Usually a sore
throat indicates inflammation of the
tonsils, from which the infection may
spread to the ears and through the
body. A cough generally means that
the child has an irritation in the
throat or in his bronchial tubes. The
only safe plan-and the best plan-in
any case, is to put the child to bed
and under a doctors care, as soon as
either sore throat or a cough de-
velops, especially if there is any indi-
cation of fever. The earlier the proper
treatment is begun, the sooner the re-
covery will take place. In addition, the
likelihood of the trouble spreading to
others is greatly reduced.
"It must be remembered too that
number of serious communicable
pears to be a common cold. The doc
tor should be asked early to decide
and take the necessary precautions.
"Parents can do good deal to pre-
vent these respiratory infections
among their children by following
these simple directions:
1. "Give young children a well-bal-
anced diet as suggested by your ply
sician.

Gathering And Marketing
Of Holly Is Profitable

The National Organization of Gar
den Clubs and other Conservation Or
ganizations are advocating substitutes
to be used for holly which is being so
rapidly stripped from our roadsides.
There is some reason for their alarm
for while it is native from Massa-
chusetts southwark, it has become al
most extinct as a native shrub from
Massachusetts to Delaware and Mary
land, due to excessive stripping of the
trees for their attractive leaves and
berries.
In Delaware and Maryland and fur
ther south there are still large luanti-
ties of holly but under present de-
structive methods of gathering it
there is grave danger of running a
business now profitable. Holly is nor
mally by-product of the forest since
it will grow under forest cover if
not too dense and, as such, if properly
handled, will very materially increase
the income from forest lands even to
the extent of becoming a profitable
crop in itself.
Holly grows slowly under forest
conditions and heavy pruning will de-
stroy the trees. Certainly the careless
breaking of branches is fatal. The
maintenance of holly production on
given area and indeed the mainten-
ance Of the industry itself require
conservative cutting. When it is real
lied that the normal annual value of
holly marketed from the Eastern
Shore of Maryland alone amounts to
about $18O,OOO, it will be seen that
this is an industry worth preserving
and this value can be greatly increas-
ed by the use of conservative methods
of cutting and better protection of the
trees.
The perpetuation of the industry is
dependent upon two important things:
(1) The trees must be protected from
mutilation or destruction by thieves,
vandals and thoughtless people hunt
ing Christmas greens. Holly is in de-
mand and has a market value. There
is, therefore, no reason why the owner
of the land who pays the taxes and in
terest charges should not receive the
full benefit from the crop instead of
the trespasser who, not only pays
none of these costs but floods the mar
kets with stolen goods thereby de-
stroying a legitimate business. (2)
Next to protecting the holly trees for
the benefit of the owner is the prop
er harvesting of the crop. The growth
of holly trees, as indeed any other
trees, is dependent upon the amount
of leaf surface. When the crown of
the tree, which is the part with leaf
bearing branches, is cut back the
growth of the tree is retarded. If all
of the branches bearing leaves are
cut or broken the tree is doomed and
that is what is destroying SO many
holly trees.

Baked at Court Decision

The saying John Marshall has
made his decision; now let him en-
force it" was ascribed to President
Andrew Jackson and its occasion was
a decision of the Supreme court in one
of the cases involving the Cherokee In
dian nation and the state Of Georgia.
The Supreme court had found in favor
of the Indians. but, as the interests Of
the United States, as well as the state
of Georgia, were believed by Jackson
to be superior, the Indians were grad
ually displaced from their lands in
spite Of the treaty subsisting.
