Cleveland Banker
Sees Hone in Bonds

Evidence that investors, here and
abroad, are slowly but surely re-
gaining confidence in the stability
of business and future earning
power of industrial corporations

cent months, according to state
ment by j. R. Kraus. chairman Of

Food prices continued generally
downward during the week end
ing January "a. The wholesale
food price index compiled by
Bradstreet's Weekly followed its
9-cent drop to a new low level
in the preceding week with a fur.
ther loss of S cents.
This brought it to $1.51, 10
cents below it's lowest point for
the year 1882 and 28 cents under
the top of the late summer re-
bound.
AS in the previous week, the
most pronounced weakness was
apparent in butter and eggs. Most
livestock prices we're also lower,
though hogs held about steady
and lambs moved upward against
the trend. Grains were generally
strong.
Among 81 commodities of all
kinds reported, 13 advanced, IL

changed. This represents some i'm
provement over the preceding
week when 6 advanced, 21 were
lower and so remained stationary.

Optimism over the business
outlook continued to be expressed
today by the weekend trade
reviews.
Industrial and banking leaders,
according to Bradstreet's, declare
that 1888 offers sound oppor-
tunities for business advancement
without benefit of ballyhoo or
technocratic twaddle."
American business, the review
asserts, is solving its own prob
lens and has gone far in gaining
flexibility, finding new markets
and turning profits where none
existed before. The 1920 catch
word, Volume" it is stated, has
been replaced by the phrase,
"Economy-plus profit"

(By United Prcss)

 Wood, or "Woodie" as he used to be known at the White House be. fore sent on his special assign ment, is now "Woo-e." Sarah calls him that and the new name has stuck.

The little girl considers him one finer best friends. When she came here from Rye Beach recently, Wood stepped off he train with Sarah proudly perched on his shoulder.

 It seems that back in 1S4S, while Garibaldi was uniting Italy with his famous fred shirts" James Roosevelt was on a walking tour of the peninsula and happened to- ward Naples, where siege was in progress.
