Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, November 14.-Stocki
on the Curb Exchange turned reac-
tionary today midway through the aft
ernoon session and closed with losses
Of / to points In the leaders.
For three hours and more the mar
ket had ranged higher in moderately
active trading, but increased offerings
in the last hour brought prices down
again. The oils held better than other
divisions and some of the gold shares
retained part of their early gains.
Fractional gains were recorded at the
opening, after which commodity shares
generally, sensitive to infiationary in
fiuences, extended their advance The
public utilities were quiet and not much
changed.
The Canadian gold mining stocks
were again bid up briskly, with Lake
Shore Mines the most active gamer
Hollinger Gold, which declared the reg
ular monthly dividend of cents, at
tanned new high for the year, as 1t
crossed IL for fractional gain. South
American Gold and Platinum, in which
speculative activity has been marked for
several sessions, reacted slightly under
proflt-taking sales.
In the petroleum list, Humble Oil
and International Petroleum, both in
the Standard Oil group were the star
performers as they again ran up to
new high levels for the year. Gulf Oil
Of Pennsylvania, Standard Oil of In
diana, South Penn Oil, Imperial Oil,
Creole Petroleum and Standard Oil of
Kentucky we're In demand at modest
price increases.
Compared to the turnover in the
commodity shares, the utilities were
dull. Electric Bond 81 Share opened
up shade at 161a and clung closely
to that level thereafter. New England
Power preferred recovered a small
early loss.
The liquor shares were fairly active,
but made little progress in the forenoon
session. Hiram Walker, Distillers. Ltd,
and Canadian Industrial Alcohol A
shares were taken at fractional gains.
In the aviation list a feature was
the buying of Waco Aircraft, which
pushed up point to a new high level
for the year at 1412. Pan-American
Anyways flrmed up. The two Swift
Packing stocks pointed higher, as did

DUTCH COLONY
MAKING GOOD

MANHATTAN, Mont, July 2l.-
A unique colony of Hoilanders'
who celebrated the 40th anniVer-
sary of the founding of their settle

traordinary record of Americana
alton.
There is not single member
now on delinquent tax rolls de-
spite the fact it is an exclusively
agricultural community.
In the 40 years of the settle
ment there have been no divorces
and but three court cases.
In prosperous years their con-
tributions to their church, oenev-
olences, schools. missions, and
sanitoria have averaged $4,000 an
nually, despite the fact there arc
but 1856 families.
These achievements have been
made after a start that would
have discouraged almost any other
group. Thirteen Dutch families.
nine of them direct from Holland
founded the settlement in 1893.
For five years they battled an
alkali spotted waste, irrigation
canal breaks, and alien and some
times hostile neighborhood.
In 1898 they mastered the probS
| lens of raising wheat, mailing bar
fley, and livestock. Soon their bar
ley was world famous, and COM
manded premium prices.
Prohibition ended their profit
able industry of raising malt bar
ley, but they quickly found equally
valuable crops in wheat, oats, al
falfa, peas and vegetables.
In 1881 came a great drought
and the full force of the depres-
sion. Undismayed, the colonists
