 Volume increased and the out side public again was nibbling here and there. Sales for the week were 11,164,894. On Friday a flourish of strength was accompanied by dealings that exceeded 5000, 900 shares for the first time in August.

 Action of the federal reserve in treb1ing its purchases to $35,0O0,- 900 of U. s. government securities "a form of milk inflation-was the clue to the rise Friday.
 Commodities moved up and the dollar dropped sharply. The Brit ish quit supporting the pound and it declined in terms of France, in- dicating that pressure is being brought to throw France off the gold standard.

I ministration for a block-to- block
 canvass on behalf of the presi- dents Emergency Unemployment
 campaign. The purpose will be to get the signature of every possible employer to the presidents re-em- ployment agreement, and the sig
 nature of every consumer to a
 simple pledge of cooperation with
 the unemployment campaign through support of manufacturers
 distributors, service industries, and
 all other employers who have
 signed the presidents agreement
 and are living up to its provisions. In every New England state,
 community MIRA committees have plans in readiness for the opening
 of the canvass Monday morning. ] according to information received 1 by Chairman Robert F. Shepard of
 the New England District Recov-
 cry board. From the chairmen of
 the six state recovery boards in
 New England, word came to Chair
 man Shepard to-day that en-
 thusiasm is high, popular support
 of the unemployment campaign Is
 everywhere evident, and that if
 these evidences are criterion, the campaign in New England will get off to flying start under auspi- cious conditions.
 In a statement at New England
 District Recovery Board headquar-
 ters to-day, Chairman Shepard ex-
 pressed himself as highly encour- aged by the reports which have
 been flowing in from state recovery
 boards and from local MIRA com
 mittees.
 "New England will not be found wanting in it's traditional and loyal response to call for action on be- half of the nations welfare" Chairman Shepard declared. "The
 people of this historic section have never failed to do their part, and more. New Englanders by nature do not brag, and avoid promising more than they can deliver. Hence reports that are coming in regards ing the warm response already evi- denced to the call of the National Recovery Administration are par ticularly pleasing. I believe the re- sponse of New England in the block to block canvass, as the cli-
 max of the presidents emergency
 unemployment campaign, will be equally effective.
 "It should never be forgotten that the purpose of all this activity is unemployment" Chairman Shepard continued. "The entire ob- ject of the presidents re-employ-
 mcnt agreement, which every em- ployer asked to sign, Is the pro- gressive elimination of unemploy- ment and the steady increase in purchasing power of the people. in order that the increased degree of industrial production which we have allotted with such relief and
 pleasure, may be sustained and continued.

CERIOUS as the matter really is,
~ you needn't feel alarmed if you
suddenly discover yourself bleeding
from the throat or vomiting blood.
Although this is one Of the most
severe symptoms that can affect a
person, the conditions that cause
the bleeding can be treated salts
factorily by physicians.
But the important point is that
the trouble be brought to the at
tention Of your doctor Immediately,
so that it will receive proper treat
ment.
Bleeding from the throat or
vomiting of blood is associated, in
most cases, with severe conditions
in stomach or lungs. Among the
common causes Of this trouble is
ulcers of the stomach.
Such ulcers invade the walls Of
blood vessels. When the stomach
fills with blood, the person who has
the ulcer will vomit the blood to
get rid of it.
An ulcer of the stomach is dag
nosed by the physician not only by
the symptoms that are found, but
