 ''Information returns disclose that you have stock, bond or com modity transactions through brok- CTS or other agents within the United States" the latest treasury letter to foreign taxpayers said.

TO
 STOP ALL WARS
Congressman N alone y Made That Plea at Amer=
 ican Legion Session

Stomford, Conn, Aug. 23.-UP)
 A plea for education to ned war was made today by congressman Francis T. Maloney, Meriden, be- fore 400 delegates to the annual convention of the Connecticut American legion.
 Expressing the hope that Amer ica had learned the lessons of the World War, Congressman Maloney said "If there be war in the future, and I don't prophecy that there will be, then let 1t be a war with the profit removed. We had supposed that the last war had left sufficient understanding to men to press education. Nevertheless, after 1G years we have again be- come careless in action.
 To-day there are again millions of people suffering untold anguish who are almost in a position to begin to build anew. We had thought that the end of the World War had brought to a conclusion the old order. Those brave men who fought in it knew and still known the living hell that it was. Let us hope that there still re- mains a little realization of the real hell that this conflict really was and endeavor to educate our selves to endeavor to prevent an- other war;
 The congressman recommended that leaders of modern times lay stress on the provisions of tks. constitution. He said "the old education is ca good guiding post but a poor hitching post"

 New York. Aug. 2S-(UP)-De- prived of imitation rumors tooay. the stock market drifted lower ana trading fell off from yesterday 1900 .O00-share pace.
 Evidence of the governments ln- tention to maintain the gold pull- lion standard by permitting snip ments of gold abroad and state ment by Secretary Morgenthau that there was no change in the treasury gold policy, took away the glamor of the imitation propaganda which had been a factor in recent stock exchange sessions.
 Two New York banks were granted permits by the treasury to ship gold to Paris. Their shipments will total $3,500,000. The s. s; Washington arrived from England bearing 12,225 bars of silver con signed to "order"--obviously for the treasury.
 The liner President Harding at Southampton. took on silver des- tined for New York amounting to 400tons, valued at $7,646,25O.
 There was probably no connec- tion with the silver shipmentas, but silver shares were among the heavier losers. Howe Sound drop ped a point and U. s. Smelling more than point.
 Gold mining issues sold off sharply with Alaska Juneau. Me- Intyre Porcupine, and Dome Mines dropping 1 to nearly 2 points. Cop pers eased.
 Fractional losses were noted in such leaders as American Can, American Telephone, Atchison, Chrysler. General Motors, Inter national Harvester Sears Roebuck, U. S. Steel, Westinghouse Electric and Woolworth.
 Other steels performed bette:- than U. S. Steel. Bethlehem at one time sold at 30 1-S up 1 1-4. National reached Al IA up l 3-8. Part of these gains were erased be- fore the close.
 The dollar recovered slightly in terms of some foreign currencies as a result of the return of con- fidence in the American gold stan dard brought about by the permis- sion given banks to make gold shipments. The franc. however, re- mained firm. United States gov- ernment rallied after another de- clined that carried some of the Home Owners and Federal Farm

 of Present Status of Business Moves

Boston, Aug 23- (UP) - The wool business still is in the dol drums, with quotations unchanged, Dun & Bradstreet, Inc, said today in the weekly review of New Eng land trade conditions.

 'The piece goods market is slow, without prospects tor much ln- creased activity in the near future. Woolen and worsted yarn spinners are receiving very few orders, ami prices continue unchanged.
 Cotton mills still are operating according to the code provision on 25 per cent curtailment basis. but an increased demand for gray goods and a moderate trade in the finished cotton cloth, has placed sales ahead of production.
 "New orders for cotton yarns are comparatively light, but spinners are expecting more activity before long. There has been considerable resist to the new higher prices neCeSSlIdJeu DN lIle lHClcdSlIlS IoSlS of the raw material.
 "The staple lines of rayon cloth are moving rather slowly, butsthere has been an increased call for some of the novelty lines. Prices are steady silks also are moving rath- CT slowly, as manufacturers are unwilling to place their orders now.
 "The arrangements of the gov ernment to withhold the surplus supply of hides from the market has stimulated active trading in raw hides and prices are advanc- ing. This, in turn, has stabilized the leather market.
 "Iast week new building and en- gineering contracts awarded in New England were at low ebb, but this week the figures are more encouraging, being ahead of the average for the year and above the totals for the two previous years.
 "Lumber prices continue steady, with a moderate volume Of buSl- ness reported by the yard. Whole salers report. however, that new orders for building lumber are light.
