loss resulting from these mishaps was
approximately $4,000 100000 or more
than the annual cost Of operating the
nations public school system and five
times the annual yearly fire loss.
Many accidents, Copelin said, are
due to the use Of worn tires In the
spring when the roads and streets &C.
casionaly are slippery and conditions
are such as to promote skidding. In

Spectators Seek
Way to Cash In
On Silver HOards
BY CLAUDE A. JAEGER,
Associated Press Financial Editor.

NEW YORK, February 16.-wan
Street SPECTATORS are feveristly seek
ing means Of "cashing In" on the ad-
m!nistration's next step to rehabil-
tate silver.
Bulls in silver sat up and took no
tice when Secretary of the Treasury
Morgenthau told the House Coinage
Committee new steps we're under con-
sideration.
Some bulls are said to be buying
Shanghai dollars, in effect establish
ing bank balances in Shanghai in
terms of silver currency. They have
done it somewhat obviously, however,
for the next step in the rehabilitat
ing process might conceivably ahect
only the price for domestic silver.
Yesterdays price for bar silver In
New York, for immediate delivery, was
453s cents an ounce, almost double
the historic low of 24i4 cents recorded
in December, 1882. 1t was still well
under the 641s cents the Treasury
has been paying for newly mined
domestic silver.
In trying to guess what the next
step will be, Wall Street silverites
point out that the gold devaluation
act authorizes the President also to
devalue the silver dollar.
The present legal content Of the
silver dollar sets q theoretical valua-
ton of $l.29 an ounce. Devaluation
Of the silver dollar, therefore, would
be done under radically different con-
ditions than devaluation of the gold
dollar The action on the gold dol
lar found the open market price Of
the metal far above its legal price
of $20.67 an ounce, while the mar
ket for silver is far below the theo-
retical coinage value of $1.2e.
The silver market extended its 3D.
vance again today, bar metal gaining
q of a cent an ounce to reach the
Ascent level for the first time since
1880.
Active futures months improved Y
