Utility Group Weak

Nearly every stock of the railroad
group moved up late in the day.
Most gains were fractional although
in a few instances, including Della
ware 81 Hudson and Northern Pa
cihc, the advances reached a point
or more. Louisville a. Nashville was
fairly active and strong as were
Chesapeake g. Ohio, New York Cen
trial. Union Pacific and Pennsyl-
Vania.
Utilities failed to participate in
the late recovery which followed the
rise in railroad issues. Dividend
uncertainties, Investigations and
talk of government interference
combined against the group. Losses
of l to 2 points were noted in Pub
lie Service. Consolidated Gas and
North American. In the communi-
cations, American Telephone broke
par for a time in the early trading
but rallied to above 100 later. Trac-
ton issues were strong throughout
the day.
Motor Shares Rally
Steel common and preferred is
sues made small gains. Borden, re-
Gently under pressure, jumped a
point. Case rose fractionally, as did
several other issues, including
United Aircraft and General Mo-
tors. Eastman Kodak was up more
than a point.
Motor shares rallied with General
Motors. Oils were steadier than in
recent sessions. Among the strong
spots in the gold mines was Home
stake, which rose more than point.
Others made smaller gains to new
high for the year. Gold mining is
sues on the curb also were in de-
mand at rising prices.
Trading in the general market
was under Thursday. Volume was
particularly dull on the late recov-
cry.

Had the people of northern Eu-
rope been the first to settle in the
United States, the moose would
have been given the name of elk, "
by which its Scandinavian cousins
are known. The French had seen
no such animal before, and gave
it the name "orignac."
English settlers found the word
too hard to say, and adopted the
Indian word Moose. Then, to
further complicate matters, the
name elk" was given to the large
deer known to the Indians as
wapiti.

BY HAROLD f. RAINVILLE
United Press STAFF Correspondent

CHICAGO, Feb. 4-Wheat prices
held close to the previous close on
the Board Of Trade Friday as trad
ers relapsed into their CAREFUL mood
that kept prices in a narrow range.
Buying and selling was very light,
rejecting minor swings in stocks for
the most part as other news was ig-
nored. There is considerable heSita-
ton over taking a decided stand
while an undercurrent of bulliSh-
ness is felt at times. The other
grains took their cue from wheat,
corn getting the best trade in a
small range.
News Reports Dull
At the close wheat was u to q
cent lower, corn was a to 3 cent
lower, oats unchanged TO : cent
higher, rye unchanged to Z cent
lower and barley sc lower. Pro-
visions were steady.
Steadiness at Liverpool and VIM
nipeg led to scattered buying at the
start and gave the market q firm
tone. News was generally colorlesS.
Liverpool held around steady most
of the day and closed Is cent lower.
Trading was moderate. Cash prices
were unchanged. Receipts were
four cars.
Corn Options Weak
Corn eased with wheat although
losses were only 1s to 4 cent at
mid-season. County offerings we're
large rand bookings totaled 1900
bushels. Shipping sales we're $4,000
bushels. Cash prices were I'M
changed to u cent lower. Receipts
were ninety-five cars.
May oats equaled its low for the
season early but later recovered and
at mid-morning was unchanged in
an exceedingly dull session. Cash
prices were unchanged to y cent
lower. Receipts were eighteen cars.

HUMAN FAMILY
REUNION URGED.
Reunion To Consist
Of All Races

The Inauguration of Human
Family Reunions, composed of
the various races and nationalities
of the world, was the theme of
discussion at a reunion, meet
ing, held under the auspices of
the woman's auxiliary of te Mt
tional Association for the Ad-
vancement of Colored People, at
the Lucy Thurman Y. w. C. A..
last Saturday night.
Mrs. Robert l.. Davis, origina-
tor of the Human Family Reunion
idea, said that the nations of the
earth must get back to the basic
principal upon which civilization
was founded, namely, that all are
the children of one God. Going
back to this principle, according
to the sponsor, would bring about
an elimination of prejudices of re-
ligion, color, and politics.
Mrs. Davis, in her talks, stated
that one approach to the eradica-
ton of racial prejudices is the
Human Family Scrap Book"
similar TO those she is compiling
and distributing in public places.
In the books are many interesting
pictures of members Of every race
in the world, showing their indi-
vdual and collective progress and
worthwhile achievements. These
books, Mrs. Davis believes, should
be placed in the offices of promi-
nent business and professional
people, in order to acquaint them
and their patrons with the
achievements of the oppressed
groups, thereby tending TO de-
crease prejudice.
Another approach, which Mrs.
Davis and her co-workers are
seeking to introduce, is sought
through the placing in various no.
tells of placards of Human Fami-
ly Welcome" indicating to WISH
tors that they can find lodging
and welcome there with friends
void of prejudice. It is Mars Davis
hope that such cards may prove
Of benefit to strangers Of the
darker races, who plan attending
the Worlds Fair which opens at
Chicago next month.
A unique and interesting pro-
gram was presented, including vo-
cal and instrumental selections
and entertaining talks by speak
ers Of several races.
