REED At TACKS
MELLON RUMOR

A rumor that Andrew w. Mel
lon, retiring ambassador to Great
Britain, is afraid to return to the
United States because he shipped
$5,OOO,OO0 in gold from this
country to the British Isles was
officially denied in the Senate to-
day by Senator Reed (R0 OF
Pennsylvania. He said:
81 am informed by persons
who know that MIR. Mellon did
not ship gold abroad and that
he is sailing for the United
States tomorrow"
The sensational gossip concern
ing the former Secretary of the
Treasury, who served in the Hard
ing, Coolidge and Hoover admin
istrations, was brought into the
open by Reed during debate on
the Democratic economy bill.
Senator Borah (R0 of Idaho
declared it was IAN open secret"
that Mellon threatened to resign
from the Harding Cabinet in 1922
unless the President vetoed the
soldiers bonus. Reed retorted:
"Mr. Mellon has been the vic
tim of more open secrets than
any other man in public life.
One of the more recent of
these SO-calIed open secrets is
that he exported $5,OOO,OOO in
gold to the British Isles and is
afraid to return home lest he
be placed under arrest"

Gains as High as 6 Points Are
Scored by Leading Issues
In Burst of Trading
By LESLIE GOULD
International News Service Financial
Writer

NEW YORK, March IS
T.N.S.) S.).-The stock market
staged the most spectacular
rally in several years today,
gains running to more than
six points in some stocks as
trading was resumed after the
11-day shutdown due to the
national banking holiday.
Wall Street was in bullish
frame Of mind as the gong for re-
newal of trading sounded at 10
o'clock and threw huge buying
orders into the market, trapping
the bears. Blocks running to T.
500 shares followed each other on
the tape and the high-speed ticker
fell behind twice in the first-hour-
buying rush.
All Markets Affected
Bullishness spread to all mar
kets. Stocks on the Curb Ex-
change jumped from / to nearly
5 points. A spectacular rise in
Government obligations featured
the bond market. with one Treas
ury issue rising 3 1892 points, or
about $35 per $1,000 note. Rail
road bonds scored gains running
to more than points, or $50 per
$1,000 bond.
Commodities reflected the re-
cent rise in foreign markets by
forging ahead also. Two leading
commodity markets, cotton and
grain, will not resume trading un-
til tomorrow, however. Money
continued stringent, with call
money renewing at per cent, the
highest rate in more than three
years.
Bank Stocks Off
The, only exceptions were the
dollar and bank stocks. The dol
lar lost further ground against
foreign currencies after Mondays
sensational rise. Bank stocks
were 1OWcI, Tc14cCLA11S 1SCS1lC O1V1-
dend casualties.
With the general expectation of
a quiet opening dissipated, traders
rushed to Chamber aboard the
bandwagon and a bear panic fol
lowed. The shorts had little
chance to cover except at rising
prices, and their frantic covering
brought a further uprush from the
opening.
Corn Products was the out
standing performer, opening up
more than 6 points. Gains of
from 2 to S points were scored by
American Telephone, Allied Chemi-
cal, Consolidated Gas, Columbian
Carbon, Auburn, Case Threshing,
Air Reduction, and many others.

Secret Meeting Due Tonight
To Discuss Situation;
Favored by U. S.
(Other Bank News on Page q

Officials of number of
local banks which were refused
licenses to reopen yesterday
and are now in the hands of
conservators will meet tonight
to discuss plans looking to con-
solidations of several of the in
stitutiOns, it was learned today.
At this secret meeting the bank
ers will discuss the problems Of
frozen assets and the possibility
of obtaining aid from the Treas
ury Department in event the con-
solidation is worked out.
All Represented
Just which banks will particle
pate In the meeting could not be
learned, but it was believed that
practically all of the thirteen
which are now in the hands of
conservators will be represented
at the conference.
Treasury officials, it was learn
ed, look with favor on the propo-
sition of consolidation as one
method of strengthening the local
banking situation.
It is possible that some OF the
unlicensed banks may be consoll-
dated with the stronger inStitu-
tions now open under Government
license, thus releasing assets
which are sound but temporarily
frozen.
Checking All Assets
Conservators are now working
in the three national and 10
savings banks which failed to
receive licenses, checking over
all assets in order that the instl.
tutions may be reorganized and
opened as soon as possible.
Consolidation of local banks is
possible under the emergency
banking laws passed by Congress
last week, it was pointed out. The
laws provide for reorganization OF
the banks with the approval OF
the Comptroller Of the Cur
rency and the further approval
of depositors of rs per cent Of
total deposits or holders of two
thirds of the capital stock OF the

Army DOCTOR AND
LOCAL MERCHANT
SPEAK TO ROTARY
DuckWorth Tells Of G. E. c.;
Robertson Discusses Ladies
Ready to Wear

Problems and experiences Of army
surgeons and merchants in ladies
ready-to-wear were explained to
members Of the Bismarck Rotary
club Wednesday by Major John r.
Duckworth. Fort Lincoln, and Charles
r. Robertson, local business man, ex-
perts in their respective subjects.
Robertson traced the history Of the
garment industry from the time each
dress was an artistic creation, made
expressly for the woman who was to
wear 1t, to the present stage Of mass
production.
In the beginning, he said, only per-
sons Of wealth had good clothes.
Each dress was q separate creation,
whether the result was good or bad.
Then came the forerunners Of
the modern manufacturing establish
ments and the beginnings Of q retail
ready -to-wear trade. Because they
were more efficient instruments for
distribution this system spread until
it now Is great industry.
Modern methods and machinery
enabled garment manufacturers to
turn out good clothes at low prices,
Robertson said. Wide distribution
and the creation Of q multiplicity Of
models enable the retailer to market
them efficiently.
Price Changes Noted
In recent years, he said, emphasis
has been on price, with the result
that manufacturers frequently cheap
ened their product or maintained
quality at fair price only by using
child labor and forcing adults to
work long hours at low pay.
In many cases, he said, the manu-
facturer was forced into this practice
by pressure from the retailer who, In
turn, reflected the desires Of his GUS
toners.
Robertson hailed the MIRA as q
boon since It forced out child labor;
eliminated ruinously long hours and
the lowest wages and put the garment
industry on higher and more stable
plane.
On the other hand, he said, buyers
must expect to pay more for dresses
than has been the case In the last
few years.
Before 1929, he said, the general
price range for good dresses was from
SIS up. Since that time 1t has been
from SIS down. What the price range
will be in the future has not definite
! " been determined. he said, since
some Of the increased costs may be
offset by improved methods Of manu-
facture.

GUARANTY FUND FOR
WHEAT FARMERS IS
BAKERS PROP SAL
Plan Obviously as Sound as
Bank Deposit Guaranty,
Local Man Says

A suggestion that the government
establish a fund for allotments after
1884 for use as crop insurance to pay
farmers for their crops in years of
distress has been advanced by Col.
Frayne Baker, Bismarck.
Judging from the past, Baker said.
1t will be several years before the
cooperative action will secure for the
farmer an equitable price for his
products. with the result that allot-
ments will continue for several years.
He suggested the amount Of grain.
cotton or other products that should
be harvested on all allotted acreage
on the average will be certain
amount.
Suppose for example that for
wheat it is set at is bushels per acre,
and the average fair price to the
farmer for this grain Is 81 per
bushel," Baker said. "These are
strenuous times and strenuous actions
are needed to carry on: therefore why
not let the government establish a
fund for allotments after 1884 which
Is the crop year now considered in
the allotments to be made this fall.
This fund would be a crop insurance
to pay farmers for their crops In
years Of distress.
This fund could be anticipated
right now and an advance made to
the farmers OF SO per cent Of the an
ttcipated crop for next year. We
haven't any this year, SO we do not
have to worry about it, but we could
use funds already made available and
disperse 1t now. This will allow farm
ers to proceed in q sound manner and
not require them to beg for help
Bonds could be issued which would
be payable from funds collected from
the processing tax after 1884. Think
Of how we could build and spend il
we could get this money now
Baker invited expressions on the
plan, declaring the thought was ad.
vanced "only as an emergency meas
ure and sort Of revolutionary in prin-
ciple. but it obviously is as sound as
guaranteeing deposits In banks"

oeen proved by time to be the best for
selling ladies ready-to- wear, Robert
son said chain stores offer them no
real competition since such goods
cannot well be bought In large guam
tity or far In advance because Of
changing style demands. For the
same reason, he said, manufacturers
cannot make dresses very far In ad.
vance Of demand lest the styles
change and they be left with unwant-
ed goods on their hands.
Duckworth told Of his experience
with the G. g. G. men after the labor
department had recruited them and
turned them over to the army. To
Fort Lincoln came 1927 men Of whom
only IS were rejected on physical ex-
animation. The records, however,
show that 24l would brave been re-
jected had they been applying for
admission to the regular army.
seventy-five different types Of de-
fects were noted among the appli-
cants. OF the total number examined,
al had dental defects; 231 had flat
feet In varying degrees; lao suffered
from varicocele, 100 from skin dis
eases, Is from defective hearing and
l16 were underweight. Only one was
overweight and only three were men,
tally below normal for their age.
Health Conditions Good
All were vaccinated for smallpox
and inoculated for typhoid before
leaving the camp and health condi-
tons in this area have been good, he
said. Reports from camp surgeons
show some cases of mumps and
measles, but few serious diseases. One
case Of infantile paralysis developed
In the camp at Jamestown. Six oper-
ations have been performed for ap-
pendicitis and two for hernia.
Duckworth said present plans are
to send the North Dakota men south
between October l and Is and to re-
turn them here IN the spring.

that the taxation limitation leaves the
city penniless.
The deadline was set for midnight,
but the order was modified to keep
the patrolmen and fire-fighters on
duty.
The councilmanic order came after
the state supreme court upheld q
constitutional amendment limiting to
50 cents on every one hundred dollars
on the levy on money, notes, bonds
and agricultural personal property;
81 per hundred on farms and homes
occupied by the owners: $3.50 per hum
dred on other property outside cities,
and 81 per hundred for other proper
ty in city limits.
No additional taxes can be raised,
the court held, even for interest and
sinking fund requirements on past
bond issues, except through indirect
levytng or by vote Of 60 per cent of
the municipalities electors.
This ruling will permit the city to
collect only $4,000 annually in prop
erty taxes. Mayor Paul Summers said,
while last years budget was $2ll 900.
