Market Moved Up
 Early But Later. On
 Began To Weaken
It Was Very Dull Turnover Majority of the Issues,
 However, Held Up Their Gains

but not of sufficient caliber to bring an immediate rise. After 1t was announced, the market eased off further.
 Bonds were better to-day with German issues featuring the for- eign section and United States gov- ernments in demand in the domes- tic group. Wheat moved up in the early trading, but all positions dropped a cent from the highs and closed with fractional losses. Cotton ruled firm. Silver was un- changed.s
 Railroad stocks were in fair de- mand throughout the day at gains of fractions to more than a point. Utilities were mixed with Consol. dated Gas again sinking below the previous close. Industrials for the most part registered fractional gains, although there were excep. tions which declined. The latter irs cluded Chrysler, International Harvester and Procter and Gam. ble.
 At ,the high point of the day Steel common was at 29% up 1A' from the previous close; American Telephone 106h up 2A; Allied Chemical 87 up 2h; American To. bacco B 6b% up 2h; United Air. craft 27h up 1N; Atchison 43%' up 2%; New York Central 19A up 1N; Pennsylvania 1SN up |; American Can 60M up q; Case 47A up 2%; and Du Pont 4oas up IS.
 News of market importance was mostly of an adverse nature. It included a contra seasonal rise in money in circulation refiecting fur ther outbreak of bank failures and drop in holdings of U. s. govern ment bonds of the federal reserve system.
 On the favorable side were fur ther reports of railroads, showing smaller than anticipated decreases from year ago in car loadings for the week ended January 14. The total will be published tomorrow and is expected to show sizeable increase over the previous week which included Q holiday.
 Dome Mines declared an extra dividend of 20 cents q share and the stock firmed up fractionally on the good news. Other gold mining sshares ruled dull with prices mov- ing in a narrow range.
 oil shares were steadier today as long list of companies re- duced purchasing prices of crude to conform with tho recent drastic cut in the mid-continent erea. Coppers were dull but steady.

 Blodgett is member of that board.
 Blodgett spoke of the many bills received in the general assembly calling for large expenditures of money when 1t is well known that the state is battling against a pos- sible deficit of nearly $7,000,000.
 The feeling the state always has money for various schemes and projects. he said. must be super induced by the fact that the capitol dome is golden in color" Little sympathy with any general plan whereby the state will con- tinue giving increased amounts to aid towns indiscriminately was ex- pressed by the commissioner. He said he was against this practice, particularly in Instances where the figures showed that for years towns and cities had carried on their books many names of persons owning automobiles on which they had never paid taxes.

Unanswered Letter Made
 Coolidge The President

40 years ago been answered promptly.
 It was in August, 1895. two months after graduation from Am herst college, that he wrote to the ham. Montpelier lawyer, as follows:
 "If l could get into good office I am thinking of reading there for some time, or perhaps finishing my preparation for the bar, rather than going to a law school. Is there a vacancy in your firm?

 Since 1t was his courageous stand for Flaw and order" at the time of the Boston police strike while he was governor of Massa- chusetts in 1919 which made him n national figure, many believe that If Coolidge had gone to the Dilling- ham office, and settled in Vermont, he never would have reached the White House,

ROTARY HEARS
DR.. PORTELA
Cuban Educator Talks Of
Trade Relations With
United States

The program of the Rotary
club at the Skyland hotel Wed
nesday afternoon was in charge
of the international service com
mittee, and the club, heard an
address by Dr.. G. F. Portela of
the University Of Havana, Il Wis
itor at the Skyland hotel for
the past two months.
The club also had as a guest
Francisco Prieto, Havana bust
ness man, who has been visiting
DR.. Portela for the past two
DAYS.
Dr.. Portela spoke on the
scientific, ethical, and practical
aspects of the relations of the
United States with Latin Amer
lea.
Disregarding almost entirely
the scientific and ethical side OF
the question. DR.. Portela said,
the practical side must be con-
sidered. Relations between gov
ernments alone will never stand,
he said, but a real understand
ing among nations comes from an
understanding between the peo-
Piles of nations.
All people of the United
States have more or less felt the
influence of the large business
corporations in their everyday
life, but they have not appre-
ciated the influence Of these in
terests in heir government in
its relation to Latin American
countries. o.
81 say without fear of con-
tradiction," DR.. Portela said,
chat every movement of the
United States in this relation in
the past so years has been
guided by the large business in
terests.
There is place for bust
ness in all economic movements
for business, but l reject the
idea that the foreign policy of
Your government should be con-
trolled by these interests"
Speaking of the Plat amend
ment to the Cuban constitution,
DR.. Portela said that its recipro-
cal treaty features had eliminat-
ed European business from Cuba
and given the market entirely to
America, that at the same time
the tariff on sugar, the back
bone of Cuban economics, had
been increased to two cents from
half a cent a pound. ....
He declared that Senator
Smoot, who practically centroll-
ed the beet sugar interests in
this country had been largely re-
sponsihle for the passage of this
act, the Fordney-McCumber tar
if bill.
The United States assumed ap-
proval of all loans under the
Plat amendment, he said, with
the result that every loan has
been made by this country at
terms favorable TO American
banks.
Article 80 of this amendment,
he said, pledges intervention to
protect life and property in Cuba,
but such a construction has been
placed on this article that
scarcely any movement is ever
undertaken in Cuba without con-
sulting the American ambassador.
In conclusion, he said that he
was opposed to a government by
capitalists, but that he had moth
ing in common with communists,
and that Americans should take
more interest in affairs outside
this country as they have a vital
bearing on economic conditions
