STOCK LIST REACTS
AFTER EARLY GAIN
General but Limited Drop
Laid to Shorts and
Profit Taking.
BY GEORGE T. HUGHES.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, June 20.-Tuesday Is
traditionally a bear day in a bull
market, and the maxim applied mod
erately to today's session.
The session was divided into a morn
ing of very heavy trading with the
ticker running is minutes behind, when
the industrial average reached the high
est of the year and influential shares
like General Motors, American Tele-
phone & Telegraph. New York Central
and General Electric were at the best
for the 1888 movement, and an after
noon of diminishing transactions, with
proflt-taking and Short-Selling heavy
enough to bring about general. though
limited, decline in prices. The turn
over for the day approximated that of
Monday.
The extent of the rise yesterday and
the rather indiscriminate buying both
of low-priced and high-priced stocks
led TO great deal of hedging against
possible developments in London that
might be unfavorable for those COM
mitted to the long side of the market.
1t also was intimated that the Wash
ington authorities were not too pleased
ever the extent to which the advance
in securities has outdiStanced the i'm
provement in commodity prices.
Sterling at New Peak.
The early quotation on sterling ex-
change of S4l9, the highest since Eng
land went off gold in September, 1881,
Influenced most of the first hours rise.
Subsequently prices fluctuated for a
while in sympathy with exchange, In
the latter part of the day this inf1u-
hnI IAc1 Co. 49, -
was then almost entirely under the in
fluence of well recognized technical
conditions. The final action of such
stocks as American Telephone, Cen
eral Motors, United States Steel, Johns
Manville and du Pont, which were /
to points down, clearly suggested the
temporary change in the professional
attitude toward the market.
The effect of the greater discount
on the dollar now nearly 20 per cent,
wore off during the morning as the
rate declined several cents in the pound
and advices from London were that
possibly a more harmonious program
would be arrived at concerning cur
rency stabilization.
Wall Street today is primarily trad
ing on the fluctuations in exchange, al
though more and more it is becoming
convinced that the elements of re-
covery are being exhibited in many
lines of industry and that, once the
corporation statements for the June
quarter are out of the way, there will
be inaugurated new era of industrial
profits.
Move More Deliberately.
The slower movement of prices in
securities was duplicated in commodi-
ties, which moved more deliberately in
contrast with the excited fluctuations
Of the day previous.
There were numerous announcements
of price advances in different industries.
In all, 1t was apparent that the inf1a-
tion has been and is still much greater
in securities than In any other direction.
This fact is understood to be giving the
administration some concern.

The Girl Who Won

Where had she been hiding
herself? Where did she live?
Why in thunder hadn't he pre-
viouSly met her anywhere?
"You don't step with jimmy
JudSon'S crowd, and I haven't
seen you at all? D'you live in
the country?"
II did. In a little town,

wardly.
Oh, why be ashamed of what
she'd been? She felt deceitful.
But the boy was soon talk
ing of himself, his new car, his
yacht, his speedboat.
Presently Nollie suggested
as the wind was getting chilly
that they go back into the
house.
They did, the boy reluctantly,
for he had taken a great fancy
to this pretty, elusive girl.
In the living room someone
was playing the piano, and
couples were dancing. Others
were playing bridge in the IL
brary.
The sun parlor still contained
its devotees of cocktail drink
ing. And the butler and a SER
want were carrying around trays
Of refreshments"
Mrs. Judson introduced some
more people to Nollie. She quite
approved that Nollie didn't

soon. You're in for an interest

Of it,"
There's a dark man, too, COM
ing into your life. But you
don't always get your proper
cues. You're uncertain what to
do-not sure enough of your
SELF"
"And what SHOULD I do?"
asked Nollie timidly, but much
interested.
Grab what the gods give,
and don't permit other people
interfering. And where women
are concerned, don't trust them
too much"
That reused a Bravo" from
the male element in the audi
ence.
"And what about money COM
ing to me?" Nollie was still
Sceptical.
"Oh, moneys not in your i'm
mediate future, but it's in your
hand, all right. After a variety
Of ups, and downs, you'll win,"
conceded the palmist.

Nollie withdrew, giving the
tall blonde her chair. Rhoda
did not even thank her.
The nice boy said to Nollie:
"Wait. Let's hear what the for

Apparently it was. So much

some of the items to Rhoda.

Sam Shures, Fourteenth Street
jeweler, is going to stick to the
Cossack style of horseback rid
ing.
A familiar figure on Rock
Greek Park bride paths for years,
Sam has frequently aroused com.
ment by his ability to ride the
Cossack style. So perfect at the
sport was he that he rode wear
ing pince nez even over the stiff
est course.
The other day he determined
to try a new style of jumping
which forced him to lean close
to the horses neck going over.
He leaned, the horse threw up
his head, struck Shures.
Sam almost bit off his lower
lip.
But the glasses were not dis
lodged.

HOW WORKERS CAN HELP

Workers in Fort Wayne, Ind, are
giving a practical demonstration of
how organized labor can aid in the
enforcement of NRA codes. When
the local NRA compliance board fell
down on the job and made no move
against ,violators, the Fort Wayne
Federation of Labor began picketing
plants of alleged violators, as a means
OF letting the public know the en-
ployers were not living up to the
codes.
I'VE feel that the success of the
NRA depends on the adjustment Of
bona fide complaints, especially in
cases where workers have been dis
charged for complaining of the en-
pioyer's volation," declared Clint
Mcdonald, chairman Of the Fedora
ton OF Labor compliance committee.
Mcdonald cited instances of restau-
ranteurs who paid as little as 81 and
30 week to workers, who forced
employees to endorse checks without
seeing the faces Of the checks and
'hen paid them $1,000 in cash for

horses, cows or sheep. 1t creates,
however, awkward social complica-
tions. There are limits to human pa
tience.
1t becomes practical question how
patiently the growing numbers of
men and women between 80 and 60
will endure this situation. And aside
from any direct action on their part,
there can be no doubt that society as
whole, somehow, will have to carry
the burden of it's unemployed and un-
employable members.
How will it be done? Will the
young workers between 20 and 80 have
to provide old age pensions for all
the rest? Or will wealth be taxed
out Of existence to support this vast
idleness? Or will our economic order
decide, after all, to provide living
Jobs for workers at least until mid
die age?
