mere routine operations. Tickers
were idle for minutes at a time be-
tween sales.
At no time during the session was
there any semblance of selling pres
sure. Sellers were reticent to part
with their holdings except at rising
prices and buying demand was
slightly better in some sections of
the list.

Gently the carrier group had been

Oil shares were better with ac-
tivity centering in Socony-Vacuum.
Standard of New Jersey rose more
than point and others of the group
ruled firm.

anda Mines, and Dome Mines.
Chemical issues were sharply
higher with Allied Chemical reach

up "a. Case rose with grains and
late in the day was holding at 70.
up az points. Bethlehem Steel fol-
lowed us. Steel higher. Sulphur is
sues were up one to more than 2
points. Hercules Powder jumped 2E
points to 6O1a on declaration of an
extra dividend of rs cents share.
Mail order shares were higher with
the farm equipments. American

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo-, Nov. 20.
U.P)-Gov. Guy B. Park today de-
nounced the lynching and burning
of a Negro at st. Joseph, Mo-, as
without justification and called
upon the state attorney general for
thorough investigation of the mob
action.
"There is no justification for the
action of the mob at st. Joseph" i"
Park said. "I have called upon At
torney General Roy McKittrick to
make a thorough investigation OF
the affair.
while it apepars from press re-
ports that Lloyd Warner, the Negro
lynched by a mob in st. Joseph last
night, confessed his guilt to helm
Gus crime punishable by death, yet
there was no justification of the
action of the mob.
Mob violence whether m punish
ment of crime or in an attempt to
obtain alleged civil rights, is always
wrong and is destructive of good
government.
ITO condone such an offense is to
encourage lawlessness, deny the ef-
ficiency of the courts, and the pow
er of constituted authorities"
