LOS ANGELES, July /. ;U.PJ =
An injunction restraining the mu-
nicipal water and power depart
ment from paying more than $780,
900 for certain water lands in Mono
Basin is sought in a sutton file in
superior court today.
The action was brought by viii

the lands are not worth more than
$4,000 and that interested parties
have conSpired to deceive city Of
ficials. The city, the water and pow
er department and all city officials
are named defendants in the suit
The suit was filed as the city
council approved two resolutions
paving the way for the long plan

for the purchase of water bearing
lands in Mono Basin, the Owens

NEW YORK, July /. - A weak
ened American dollar plus contin-
uing reports of improved business
conditions sent stock market prices
Skyrocketing today in active turn
over
Many had looked for a pre-holi-
day lull today. But from the outset
the market took on a vigor charac-
teristic of the recent booming Ses-
sionS.
The strength in the stock mar
J ket was reflected in other markets.
Wheat prices in Chicago gained al
most cents buShel, cotton fut-
ureS showed advances of around a
dollar bale, corporation bonds
were active and stronger and many
commodities gained appreciably.
Rails again took group leader
ship, continuing to advance on
strength of car loading and earn
ing reports. Issue after issue in the
rail group went to new 1888 highs.
Among these were New York Gen.
tral, Lehigh Valley, Pennsylvania,
Baltimore and Ohio. Central Rail-
road of New Jersey was the most
sensational performer leaping 161a
points to los and a new high.
Rail equipment stocks also were
trong with Baldwin locomotive III
leadership at a gain of more than
points TO a new 1888 peak.
Leaders Strong
Another sensational performer
was Allied Chemical. After the
market closed yesterday it was an
nounced that the companys diff
ferenceS with the stock exchange
over financial information to stock
holders had been settled On the
opening sale today 5000 shares
came out at 1913, up tx points and
shortly thereafter the price ran up
to 1917, gain of 16l9 points, and
a peak for the year.
Market leaders also were strong.
u. S. Steel approached its year
high of so, for gain of almost 2
points, while American Telephone,
American Can, General Motors, and
Chrysler all showed good gains.
Coppers got a whirl with Ana
conda approaching its years high
for more than a point gain and
Kennacott swapping up to its high
position for 1888 with similar
gain.
The United States dollar lost
ground steadily during the short
session with the pound sterling
climbing more than cents and the
French franc making a good gain
to more than cents.
Sales today totaled 2,790,0oO
shares as against 1,696,O00 a week
ago. Sales on the curb exchange
totaled $4,000 shares as against
296 900 a week ago.

Dear Mr.. Childers.
About two weeks ago a letter

citizens expressed a desire to meet
with you, at your convenience, and
discuss certain recall petitions pre-

the Imperial Irrigation District by
the qualified electors of the fourth
division. I am reliably informed
that to date no answer has been
made by you either privately or
publicly, and that those citizens
still desire frank and friendly dis

you may explain why the taxpayers
and electors of this division have
been prevented from exercising
their right of franchise.

ORBETELLO, Italy, July l. -
Twenty-four "553-X' seapianes of
the Italian Royal air force roared
over the Alps and along the Ger
man Rhine toward Amsterdam to-
day on the first leg OF seven
stage 7,100 mile flight TO Chicago.
AS he threw away his last cigar
cite before embarking on the most
ambitious flight ever attempted,
Gen. Italo Balbo, air minister and
pilot commandant of the armada,
waved his arm and shouted:
This time-Chicago Next time
around the worldl"
The "a planes, flying in column
of threes, each three in the FAM
iliar W" formation, followed this
route: Genoa, Milan, Spluca Pass,
Zurich, Basle, Strasbourg, Cologne,
Ansterdam-a distance of 870
miles. The other legs will be: Lon
donderry, Ireland, $50 miles; Ryk-
jayik, Iceland, $50 miles; Cart
wright, Labrador, 1900 miles, She
diac, N. B., 300 miles; Montreal,
500 miles and Chicago LOO miles.
A 25th plane carried spare parts.
Across the North Atlantic along
the course the planes will follow,
lie Italian warships and chartered
trawlers. Crews of expert mechanics
wait at each landing place.
! Thirty radio stations along the
route and II on vessels at sea will
keep the planes advised of weather
! conditions.
Accompanying the 36-year-old
Balbo were 95 officers and non
commissioned officers-a general,
two lieutenant colonies, one major
33 captains, II lieutenants, "a SER
geants, % corporals and 2 warrant
officers.
Each plane carried a command
ing pilot, second pilot, radio oper-
ator and mechanic.

GRAIN MARKET
PRICES SOAR

CHICAGO. July l. U.P) - Grain
prices scared today as speculative
buying poured into the pits.
Wheat climbed almost 4 cents a
bushel as belief grew that the pri-
vate winter and spring wheat crop
estimates to be issued Monday will
show sensational losses as a result
of heat and drought over the grain
belts.
Initiation psychology got a fillip
from the President s refusal to peg
the dollar. This spurred the de-
mand. particularly from the gener-
al public. Shorts and profession
ais were heavy buyers.
Eastern interest bought lot of
wheat through commission houses.
Some of the purchases were attrib-
uted to European account. Corn
and oats rose sharply with wheat,
oats touching new highs for the
season.
At the close wheat was 3 to 312
cents higher, corn was up IA to
2A cents and oats were ~ to 2ls
cents higher.
July wheat closed at .93B, July
corn .54h, and July oats .45B.

STERILIZATION
BY FREDERICK A. STORM
United Press Staff Correspondent

CAMPOBELLO ISLAND, N. B.,
July 1.-<U.P)-President Roosevelt
emphasized today that the United
States had declined to enter into
any formal currency stabilization
agreement at the world economic
conference, although it was under
TODD the President had no objec-
ton to action by the central banks
to restrict exchange fluctuations.
The President was said to con-
slider the immediate problem of in
ternational exchange as one for the
central bank, rather than the gov
eminent to settle.
He disclosed that no formal
agreement had been entered at
London after communicating with
the American delegation just before
he boarded the cruiser Indianapolis
for the return to Washington.
1t was indicated by the Presl-
dent that he believed the many
press reports of currency stabiliza-
ton arose from the desire on the
part of some governments for sta =
bilization.
He announced a change in his
return trip plans. He will ride the
cruiser indianapolis to Annapolis,
expecting to reach there some time
Monday. He will remain aboard the
cruiser that night and motor back
to Washington on July 4.

K|DNAP VICTIM

CHICAGO, July /. U.Py-John
Jake the Barber" Factor, once
hunted in three continents as al
legged perpetrator of multi-million-
dollar financial swindles, was kid
naped today before the eyes of his
wife and the 19-year-old son who
himself was abducted for 100000
ransom less than three months ago.
Factor was seized by nearly a
dozen heavily armed men as he,
his wife and son and the family
of A. l.. Epstein, an attorney, were
leaving a fashionable night club
in North Shore suburb.
The kidnapers, driving three au-
tomobileS, jerked Factor from the
autOnaobile his son was driving,
commanded the son to drive away,
placed Eptein and Factor in their
car and escaped under guard of the
other two machines.
The kidnapers, it was learned,
took Attorney Epstein away from
the scene and gave him instruc-
tions how to obtain the release of
Factor. 1t was understood he was
told the amount of ransom money
necessary and given Instructions
on how to place it in the hands of
the abductors.
A half mile away Epstein was or
dered out of the car. He walked to
Niles Center, another suburb, and
notified police. During the ride in
the kidnapers' car, scarcely word
was said, Epstein reported.
Epstein met Factors son, Jerome,
at the formers home in Chicago, a
few hours later and both immed-
lately began efforts to obtain Fac
tor release.
No Word Received
Six hours after the abduction,
William Bleet, Factors secretary,
said he had not received a COM
munication from the abductors.
Lieut.. Leo Carr, of the Chicago
police department, who led the
search for Jerome, while he was
captive, was assigned to the case.
AS related by Epstein, the party
left the night club in three cars.
In the first were two friends of
Jerome, short distance from the
night club, they were halted for
speeding. A moment later the sec
Ond automobile, containing Mrs.
Epstein. Mrs. Factor and her
chauffeur, drove up. Mrs. Factor,
hyterical, told the officer who halt
ed the first car that her husband
had been kidnapped.
The officer set out in pursuit of
the abductors' car but failed to
find a trace of it.
Ransom of 100000 was demand
