". Y. Stocks
BY ELMER C. WALLER
nited Press Financial Editor

Onlted Press FlnanClal Editor
NEW YORK, June 26.-Sensa-
tional advances in wheat and cot
ton today brought corresponding
gains in farm issues on the stock
exchange. They also helped bring
the industrial and railroad avera-
ges to the best levels since Novem-
Der 10, 1881.
The move market moved higher
in heavy turnover that caused tick
ers TO lag. Large blocks appeared.
However, only about a dozen is
sues made the broad gains. The list
as a whole was up fractions to ?
points. Aside from the farm issues,
alcohols and other wet stocks
bounded ahead. Stocks that would
benefit by higher commodity prices
generally we're in demand. One of
the preferred issues in that group
Van Raalte-was up almost %
points.
Utilities, which have been tagging
behind other groups, were in bet
ter demand. Several of the rails
made new tops. Oils we're better.
Bethlehem jumped to a new high
in the steel division where U. S.
Steel was up more than a point.
The telegraph company issues were
bid up several points. Gold mining
issues were irregular. Motors ruled
strong.
In the excitement of the soar
ing commodities, Wall Street for
got about the dollar, which equal
led its low for the decline, and then
recovered.
j. I. Case and National Distillers
Wed for leadership in point of gain.
Case reached 92&, up IA points,
while diStillerS made a record high
at 85A, up Ia. New highs at gains
ranging to more than 5 points were
made by U. S. Industrial alcohol,
the mail order shares and Crown
Cork and Seal.
In addition to the stimulus OF
approaching 81 wheat and a rise of
SO bale in cotton, the market had
in its favor a jump in steel pro-
duction to above 81 per cent and
| other improvements.
Railroads we're firm with several
at new highs for the year. Steel is
sues were in demand. Bethlehem
made a new high for the year.
Copper and silver ruled firm.
Sales were 4,530,000 shares,
against 3,314,OOO shares Friday. Curb
sales were Gel, 900 shares, against
493, 900 Friday.
Dow-Jones preliminary averages:
industrial 1881 up 2.84; railroad
As 40, up 098; utility 1920, up O.64
The United Press daily commo-
dity price index rose 2.44 points &c
1874 per cent of the 193O-1932 av-
erage, a new high since 1881.

STERILIZATION
STRESSED BY
KIWANIS HEAD.

LOS ANGELES, June 26. U.Pf-#
Only through a stabilized system of
International financial exchange
can the world build a foundation Of
economic sanity Carl F. Endicott
of Huntington, Ind, president Of
KiWanis International, tpld 1900
members at the opening of their
18th annual convention here today.
There was a time" Endicott
said. when pioneer leaders were
certain there would never be any
thing west of the low range of
mountains which extend along our
eastern shores, because they deemed
them impossible. These pioneers
never heard a telephone, never sax
an electric light, an automobile, an
airplane, a telegraph, railroad
train or many other things which
are vital parts of our civilization.
Then it was said of the United
States that it must avoid participa-
ton in foreign affairs. The same
limitation of mental range thai
compelled the statement there
will never be anything west of the
Allegheny Mountains likewise could
not anticipate and penetrate tho
centuries that were to come :.
But that has happened. Science
had made a whispering gallery OF
the world. Together with the in
crease in population, there have
been created economic demands. An
international system Of exchange
will come on the question of fin
ance, and this international ex-
change is the foundation on which
world economic sanity can ultimate
ly be accomplished.
IF the forces of Communism,
Bolsheyism and anarchy can organ
ize on an International basis and
carry out their program in every
nation on earth, why, in the name
| of God, can't the forces of honor,
of economic stability and liberty
organize on an international basis
and save the wcrld?"

Busy Month For
Local Firen1en

Ell Centre yesterday morning reg
iStered the sixteenth fire for this
month when a group of children
started a camp fire in a garage at
466 He'll avenue at Ills o'clock.
Frantic parents and neighbors
were unable to take the children
from the garage as the doors we're
locked. Firemen were summoned
and soon effected entrance, eX-
tricated the would-be campers and
extinguished the flames.
The only damage was that to
nerves of adults near the scene.
The children, too, were badly
frightened and chastened on &C
count of their part in the episode.
The D. Conn garage was the one
selected as the big woods" for the

STRONG UNEMPLOYED
COUNCIL

The workers in South Sioux
City have strong unemployed
council that is taking the lead in
the struggles of the worker. After
the workers had demonstrated
that they are not willing to lay
down and starve to death without
a struggle, the city and county
commissioners took the leader of
the Unemployed Council with
them to Lincoln to demand from
Governor Bryan relief for the
starving workers. If relief is not
forthcoming the rest of the unem-
ployed in South Sioux City will
help themselves to food, and no.
body can stop them.
We workers are determined that
we with our wives and children
are going to eat regardless of law
and Governor Bryan.

FARMER GROUP
PREVENTSSALE
County Protective League
Has Support of Pomona
Grange Locally
(BY G. S. SLAYTER,
Chairman, Clark Co. Unit
Peoples Protective League)

Vancouver, Wash, May 49,
The Peoples Protective League has
been very active here. We have
peacefully settled a great number
OF mortgage foreclosure cases.
Our first case was an old widow
lady 70 years old, the mortgage
not due for year yet. She had
tax money, insurance money and
half of the interest money but the
mortgagOr insisted on foreclosing
anyway.
A Committee from the League
offered to raise the other half of
the interest money but he refused
so we brought some pressure" to
bear on him and his lawyer. His
name is Oscar Lyles "a RAILROAD
many and his attorneys name is
Henry Grass. Llyes signed an Or
der granting the old lady another
year with it to be referred back to
the Protective league at that time.
Our governor is a monied man
former banker, and naturally he
vetoed the only moratorium bill we
had, so we have no recourse other
than "force of numbers" for our
protection. Our League has the
backing of the Pomona Grange in
this county and many organiza-
tions are behind the movement so
we are pretty strong.

SlNGLER is FISHING
Sheriffs Deputize Armies of
Gun Men to Break
Dairy Strike
SINGLER is FISHING

One thousand Wisconsin
farmers put a force of dep
uty sheriffs to rout near the
town of Bonduel despite a
barrage of tear gas bombs.
The farmers massed about a
mix plant, stopped trucks,
and drove the deputies off
with blows from their fists,
stones, and clubs.
Turnout the nineteen coun-
ties on strike pickets battled
with the deputies and state
police. Thousands of pounds
OF milk were dumped by the
pickets.
Five farmers were arrested at
Ashland where milk had been
dumped in Main street. Dan Cavev
who was charged with dumping
milk hear Mukwono, in Walw0rth
county, was arrested.
FORCE TRUCKS TO
RETURN
. At Racine the pickets stopped
milk trucks and forced them to
,'eturn home with their loads. No
milk was dumped here.
Walter Singler, president of the
Wisconsin Milk Pool has repeated
his performance of last spring.
The attorney general warned him
that lie would be held responsible
for militant action taken by the
farmers. Singler Immediately de-
clared that he was not responsible
for this militancy and then dis
appeared. The capitalist press
reports that he may have gone
trout fishing-the advice the lead
ers gave the farmers when the
strike was called.
The farmers are on the picket
lines-and Mr.. Singler has gone
fishing.
DUMP SIX TRUCKS
On Sunday, May IA, farmers at
MukwonagO battled thru clouds of
tear gas, thrown by deputies, to
dump six truckloads of milk, des-
tined for the Chicago market.
The struggle took place in Wal
worth county a short distance from

kesha county deputies on the line
threw tear gas bombs across at
the 400 farmers.

INITIATION

3. The widespread initiation pro-
gram of the Wall Street bankers
was included in the farm relief
bill as a piece of brazen mockery.
Initiation will mean that the city
workers will be able to buy less,
cutting the farmers markets still
more, and worsening his condition
even below their present levels.

ATTACK ON WORKING
CLASS

The farm relief bill is an attack
on the farmers and ON the entire
working class. Only mass action,
strikes for higher prices, struggles
against evictions and foreclosures,
and for cash relief, can bring the
farmers any improvement in their
conditions.

Herses are scarcer than they

little new machinery is being
