SILVER RATIONING
STRENGTHENS PRICE
LARGE Quantities Of Metal Have
Been Withdrawn From Market
Due to Shanghai Activities.
sn.cial Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, February 16.-The ra-
tioning of silver by Shanghai banks,
which has been in effect since February
4. is tending to strengthen the price Of
the white metal in China, Wall Street
was advised yesterday.
Shanghai banks, according to cables
received by Srinivas Ram Wagel, who
lived for more than eight years In that
Chinese city, are now paying out a
maximum of 5000 (Chinese) on indi-
vidual accounts, and postponing all
payments on commercial checks and
drafts. Although rationing silver in
this manner, the banks have lost S.
5000 in one week.
Many Of the Chinese holders of silver
who held their bullion in Shanghai for
safe-keeping now are moving the silver
fighting in the vicinity OF Shanghai
needs considerable money and the
Chinese bankers are paying such ex-
penses in silver.
when the smoke OF battle Is
cleared" Mr.. Wagel explained, 1T will
be found that a substantial part Of the
silver stocks have been spent in con-
nection with the present struggle, and
there will be q rush of Withdrawals for
safekeeping in the interior Of China
Property damage in Shanghai and
vicinity Is estimated at from 500 000.-
900 to $400, 900 900, in Chinese funds.
Immediate rebuilding of at least q part
Of Hongkew and Chapel will mean an
expenditure Of $4,000. 900 to $10O 000,-
900, which will have to come out of the
banks. The reduction of the stocks in
Shanghai and the various expenditures
have only one meaning-a greater i'm
mediate appreciation of silver values
than was expected, even as late as last
month

FEDERAL ISSUES
BOLSTER UP BONDS
Investors Hold Off Pending
Action on Banking Meas
ure in Congress.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, February 16.-United
States Government issues resumed their
upward movement in today's bond mar
ket although trading activity slackened
considerably.
Outside of the Federal list, prices
were irregular and dull with investors
apparently waiting for further inter-
pretations Of the affect the Glass-Stea-
gall credit expansion bill will have on
securities. Thus far most Of the fnan-
ciers who have studied the measure
see nothing but constructive results for
bonds generally.
The action of railroad securities today
proved somewhat discouraging to the
proponents of this department, although
the higher grade loans were firm in
most cases. The majority of the losses
in this section were confined to the
low-priced speculative liens and even
these at times show resistance.
Among the carrier mortgages that
sagged from fractions to more than a
point were AtchiSon As, Baltimore &
Ohio 4las. Canadian Pacific Debenture
As. ST. Paul 5s, Illinois Central 434S,
Missouri Pacific SIS and Nickel Plate
4l2s. Many of the rail issues were
practically unchanged from yesterday
There was a somewhat better feeling
for utilities and industrials. Advances
were recorded by bonds of American &
Foreign Power, Cincinnati Gas & Elec-
trio, including North American 5s,
American Smelling S. Chile Copper 5s.
Dodge Bros IS and Armour & Co. 412s
A mixed trend prevailed in the for
eign list Some of the South American
advanced, but German government
loans eased as did those of France
Britain and Belgium. japanese obli-
Rtions were steady.

Steadied
News Of interest to the market was
lacking. Traders who had been look
ing for an extension CT the rally after
a technical decline were encouraged by
the resistance to selling, and attempts
were made here and there to resume
advancing tendencies, but these had
slight success.
Firmer copper prices had some re-
Election IN the metal group. although
trading In those shares was light. Spe-
cialties dragged along with narrow
changes. In general the market was
satisfied with fractional fluctuations
Utilities provided a large proportion
Of the moderate turnover, Electric Bond

monwealth Edison continued steady,
holding most of last weeks late rise.
There were nominal variations in the
bulk Of the power and light holding
company issues.

ing for the first time this year, broke

New York Cotton

NEW YORK, February 16 OP.-Cot-
ton opened steady today at decline of
2 to 4 points on Southern and local
selling. May sold at 6.9l.
Business was fairly active and orders
seemed to be pretty evenly divided after
the call with offerings absorbed by
covering or trade buying. Which held
the market fairly steady within 2 or 3
points either way Of the opening quota
hons.
Houses with Liverpool and continental
connections were reported buyers dur
ing the early trading while the South
ern selling seemed to be coming partly
through brokers who sometimes act for
the cooperative interests. Liverpool
cables said that hedging and liquidation
in that market had been taken by
Bombay buying and calling and report
ed freer buying of cotton cloths by
India.
The New York Cotton Exchange serv-
Ice places its preliminary estimate Of
worlds consumption of all growths for
the first half of this season at II, ATS 900
bales, compared with 10,sS9, 900 for the
same period last season. The figures
include 5975,000 of American for this
season, against $4,000 last year.

Interest in Stocks Revived.

NEW YORK. February 16 (SpeciaD.
The remarkable advance in stocks,
representing an average gain of over
13 points in the last two sessions was
mainly at the expense of the short in
terest. Technically, therefore, the
market may be said to be in a weaker
position. On the other hand. it has
gained the confidence of a large body
of the public which has witnessed the
first strong demonstration against the
bear element in months and believes
that the latest measures for ending the
depression will be more effective than
those that have preceded 1t. 1t is not
to be expected that this public will fol-
low up an abrupt rise in stocks. 1t will
not, however. be so inclined to sell what
1t has held through the panic. To this
extent the market is relieved of the
weight Of liquidation which has been
pressing on it for such long time

ANSWERS THOSE
CRITICTSING THE
GRADING OF MILK
[COafinued from First PAgel

less per cubic centimeter means
$4,000 for every fifteen drops OF
milk. For Grade "B" it means 20O,-
600 bacteria or less for each fifteen
drops of milk.
The bacteria count and the sedi-
ment test are two important con-
siderations in grading milk supplies,
but other factors which are seen by
the inspector only, relate to the con-
ditions at the dairy barn and the
milkhouse. The dairyman may have
the best equipment in the world, but
unless he keeps things clean and
adequately sterilizes his bottles and
utensils. he will not be able to pro-
duce a low count milk, and at the
same time assure his customers that
the bottles, which are used day by
day by different persons, are ade-
quately steriliZed. All of these fac
tors are taken into consideration in
grading the dairymen.
Yours very truly,
r. c. BECKETT,
State Sanitary Engineer
