Only after Tarzan's smile had treasured
them all did the pygmies cease their agitated
shouts and stop brandiShing their weapons. An
instant later the officer saw why the ape-man
had raised him aloft. Then he called down
to the others below him and Tarzan guessed
from their voices and manner that the ap-
preaching riders were friends So 1t proved
to be few minutes later. Soon the ape-man
and his escort were surrounded by hundreds Of
the pygpies. all friendly. eager ard curious.

were workers. In one place there was a long
line Of men carrying stones, emerging from

''POssessed'' With
 CrawfOrd-Lyric

Possessed" Joan Crawford's latest Metro Goldwyn-Mayer pic- ture, opening Sunday at the Lyric theater for two days, is an adap- tation of the successful Edgar Sel- wyn play "The Mirage" Clark Gable, who last scored opposite Greta Garbo in Susan Lennox," has the leading male role.
 The heroine of Possessed" made famous by Florence. Reed in the stage version, gives Miss Craw- ford a wide range of acting oppor- tunities. She Is seen as a factory worker who cannot reconcile her. self to the poverty and drab exist ence of her class. Instead, she makes the most of her charm by going to New York, where she be- comes intimate with Gable in the role of a young millionaire with po- litical ambitions.
 The love of Gable for Miss Craw- ford becomes stumbling block when he aspires to become gover- nor of his state. To render him free to execute successful cam paign, she consents to an engage ment with a boy from her home town whom she does not love. But when at the nominating convention her name is made the butt of heckling propaganda Miss Craw ford resorts to more drastic meas ures, which results in a dramatic denouement of, interesting consc- quences. s,e
 Wallace Ford, well-known New York stage leading man, makes his first appearance on the screen in this picture. The cast also includes Skeets Gallagher, Frank Conroy, Marjorie White, John Milan and Clara Blandick.

Writing Off Book
Values Boosts Net

Citing a score of corporations
which have been debating the
book values of deprecated assets
to figures more closely in line with
1882 market values, the Alexander
Hamilton Institute points out that
this trend. if continuing, will eff.
feet decided improvement in the
tone Of earnings statements.
BY way of example. the institute
refers to a manufacturer of toilet
accessories which has devalued it's
property account and intangibles
from $36,O88,552 to $21,743,191.
BY this device, in spite of $4O2,0O
less operating income and $87, 900
higher taxes. a balance of $780,
279 remained as net income gain.
Thus the company. which passed
dividends in February, 1881. was
enabled to resume in March this
year.

B|G TRUST RACE
ST|RS STREET

NEW YORK, June II G.N.S)
A race for control Of some of
the choice independent general
management investment trusts,
and also first place in the field,
loomed today with the surprise
acquisition of two trusts by Tri-
Continental Corporation.
Tri-Continental snatched con-
troll of Capital Administration
Company, Ltd, away from the
Atlas Utilities Corporation, its
big rival. Tri-Continental staged
its coup through a purchase of
control of Broad Street Investing
Corporation, which in turn held
controlling interest in Capital
Administration.
Wall Street had expected Atlas
to get the company eventually
since Melvin E. Sawin, who just
retired as president of the Capt.
tai Administration, Broad Street
Investing and Broad Street Man
agement, is a vice president of
Atlas.
Interest in the race was
heightened today by the knowl-
edge that another big investment
trust merger was nearing the
announcement stage,

BETTER RETAIL
TRADE FOUND

A fairly pronounced upturn in
retail trade throughout the coun.
try was marked in the reports
received this week by Bradstreet's
from representatives in SIS key
cities throughout the United
States.
The upward trend has been in
seasonal lines. due. in a large
part, to favorable summery
weather. Intensive advertising
and the conduct of "sales" by
large retail establishments has
had much to do with the i'm
provement.
In addition. there has been
evidence of returning confidence
on the part of business men and
the purchasing public, brought
about largely. according to OBJ
servers, by the knowledge that
the legislators of the nation have
made a definite beginning in bal
ancing the budget.
The rise in retail transactions
is regarded generally as a hope
full augury for the future. Stocks
are at a minimum and must be
replaced,

CLOTH SALES FEW

NEW YORK. June II U.N.S.). Sales
in the coarse yarn cloths market today
averaged somewhat less than those Of
the past few days. Print "cloths held
unchanged despite occasional bids for
return to the old levels Sales were
confined to relatively few important
orders of the standard constructions.
But there was sufficient bidding of i'm
portance to establish the strength Of
mills. Carded broadcloths again were
active. Low counts continued un-
changed. Sheet:ngs did not move in
any good volume. There have been in
dications that stocks are becoming well
liquidated on "quiet sales" In at least
some instances, it has been definitely
stablished that these sales have
brough' the full market, and in some
cases buyers have found it diff cult to
get the deliveries they wanted. This
Is far from true Of the sheeting list
as whole, however.

Institute Advises
Steel Price Slash

Pointing out that the average
price of steel has declined only
1875 per cent since the 1929 peak,
as compared with a decline of
32.1 per cent in the average price
of all commodities, the Alexander
Hamilton Institute says drastic
reduction is necessary to revive
production. The Institutes bulle-
tin says:
"The depression the steel in
duStry experienced in 1921 was
solved in relatively short order
by a drastic reduction in steel
prices. These bargain prices
started a buying movement
which eventually led to a record
high production. The expand
ing demand also made it posi-
BILE for the steel industry to re-
establish a very profitable price
level"

MILLS, WATERW0RTH
 GUESTS AT LUNCHEON

Aviators Mills and Waterworth were guests at the Seward Cham Der of Commerce luncheon today at which time they outlined their future plans. Cloudy, snowy skies did not permit taking off Monday afternoon for Anchorage and it is doubtful if they may wing over today.
 Skis now replace the wheels, be- cause of the snow-covered Anchor age field Last night the plane was bedded down in one of the fields near the abandoned radio station. Test takeoffs and land ings on the skis were made yes terday and were entirely satisfac- tory.
 The fliers are considering locat- ing in Seward and may make this their base of operations.
