BY WALL STREET SPECTATOR

BY WALL STREET SPECTATOR
NEW YORK, Sept. 26 G.N.S).
Wall Street is learning how to
smile again. Not only did the
market go up with real pep
yesterday but the advance was
broad and volume picked up
appreciably. There were also all
kinds of rumors making the
rounds regarding good news to
come.
For the first time in months
brokers see a promise of breaking
even on expenses.
Volume in the last hour yester.
day was 100000 shares. or at
the rate of 100000 shares q
day. With recent economies,
brokers can probably cover ex.
penses at this trading pace.
Commonwealth & Southern was
taken in blocks but couldn't get
anywhere. volume in this issue
in the past has run 10000 shares
and more in a single transac-
ton; but this was usually around
the peak.
Odd-lot houses report con-
siderably more activity.
Sellers of stocks are getting a
break now after buyers have had
it all their own way for long
time. Someone tried to buy
Jersey Central, starting at SIS bid
and finally raising the price to
60, the offering level, where 200
shares we're sold at an advance
of 6 points.
Hearings on the petition for
rise in rail freight rates will get
under way on Monday.
Activity in the amusement
shares reflects speculative buying
on the expected seasonal pickup.
Cheerful reports on retail trade
are attractive attention to the
merchandising shares like Macy
and Woolworth. Some of the
stubborn shorts in U. S. Steel,
American Telephone, and other
leaders are beginning to cover.

n YOU are intelligent enough to look
before you leap. write to Jane Jordan
before YOU make an important decision
She will help you see your problem more
clearly.
Dear Jane Jordan-I am going
with a sweet little girl of 81. l
am %. We both are very much
in love and we want to get mar
ried secretly. The reason is that
I am not working. 1 was in a
sanitarium for fourteen months
and still under the doctors care.
I can work half a day, from five
to six hours each day, but my girl
says no. You see, she was a pa
tient in the sanitarium also, and
she knows best.
1 am afraid if we get married
and the folks find it out, they
would want her to leave home
and live with me. We want to
live together as soon as we can,
but do you think it would be
wrong to keep our marriage a Sc
cret until we are able to live by
ourselves? JAN.
Answer-You and your girl are
biologically ready for marriage, but
marriage is much more than g
biological relationship. You are not
ready to assume the heavy reSpon-
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1934-09-11

dence enough that you are not
ready to tackle the still more adj
vanced problem of marriage. 1t is
like trying to solve the problems in
the back of the arithmetic before
YOU have learned the answers to
the simpler problems in the front OF
the book. 1t is like trying to arrive
in New York without passing
through any other cities en- route.
In other words, you are trying to
get somewhere without taking the
unavoidable preliminary steps. Such
an illogical approach to marriage is
bound to result in confusion.
I see your point, of course. Your
young bodies yearn for each other,
but you can not assuage your hun
ger without making your relation
ship legal. But mere legality has no
power to mature you in years or ex-
perience. 1t can not produce robust
health or put you on your feet
financially.
Marriage is a socially responsible
relationship, an adult problem for
adult partners. To marry secretly
in an effort to evade its more seri-
GUS responsibilities is not an intelli-
gent or a mature approach to one
of the most important problems Of
life.
Dear Jane Jordan am girl
of 19 and a graduate of Short
ridge high school, I wish to say
a word about the letter sent in
by "A Wife and Mother" Per-
Sonally, have managed to strug-
gle through my relationships with
boys without falling in love or
involving myself in trouble, but
some of my friends have not been
so fortunate. Therefore, 1 know
that when a girl is in trouble
she wants aid and sympathy from
a person who can help her profit
from her mistake and hold on to
her Self-respect. She does not go
for comfort to some one who
considers himself an able pinch
hitter for the Almighty. I always
have found that the children of
these cold-blooded Christians are
the most extensively irty-minded
people I KNOWN a sly little way,
of course. A SINNER.
Answer-In all justice, let us adj
nit that all Christians are not cold
blooded. But those who are stand in
grave danger of driving their chill
dren to regrettable excuses. Many
parents cling to the belief that they
are duty-bound to impose by force
heir own conceptions Of good be-

any one of which would be guess.
Today's hand was selected for
several reasons; first, because it
would provoke deeply an argument
as to the bidding procedure; sec
ond, because of the method of play
which should be pursued.
THE score and vulnerability, of
Il course, have a bearing. If you
are vulnerable, caution should be
the watchword.
The hand might not fit with
partners and severe penalty would
be the outcome. If not vulnerable,
a pre-emptive bid certainly would
be considered by those who believe
in such tactics.
When the writer originally saw
this deal played, the South player
was one of those who did not be-
lieve in halfway measures and bid
four hearts, which secured the con-
tract, although 1 would hardly
recommend this as sound.
INVEST opened the king of dia-
w monds, declarer ruffing.
Declarer has two methods of play,
either to set a long diamond in
dummy, in case West holds only
three, or to eliminate diamonds
from the West hand if he holds
four, then throw him in with the
king of spades, forcing lead up
to the king of clubs.
Fortunately, both methods call
for the same line of play.
At the second trick South leads a
small trump to dummys king. A
small diamond is returned and
trumped by South, who must now
give up the possibility of three dia-
monds to the ace, king, queen, with
West and play to strip the West
hand of that suit.
For the fourth and fifth tricks,
South leads ace and queen of hearts
to pick up the outstanding trump,
and next follows with a small
spade, dummy's jack being fineSsed.
The third round of diamonds is led
for declarer to ruff and dummy
again is put in with the ace Of
spades.
At the ninth trick the fourth
round of diamonds is led and South
can either ruff with his last trump
or discard a losing club.
If the former, he then leads the
queen of spades to put West in with
the king. If the latter, West will be
in and, after making the king of
spades. is forced. to lead a club to
South's king.

set of sons and daughters I ever
encountered either in real life or
novels.
Although the author, so we are
told, actually believes her thesis
that children owe nothing to
parents-she manages just the
same to gain the profound COM
passion of the reader for the poor
old pair, shiftless and unwise as
they were. AS for the children,
their husbands, wives and progeny,
you feel the world would be bet
ter off without the lot.
Theoretically one may share the
authors opinion. 1t is indeed I'M
fortunate when young people
must postpone BODYBUILDING and
a family because they are burd-
ened with the added expense Of
one or two old parents, but if they
shirk that responsibility somehow
you feel they deserve neither.
When we arrive at that high
point in our civilization when re-
spectacle citizens refuse to share
their bread and roof with those
who bore, nurtured and loved
them, it will be about time for
the general humiliation of the
race which calls itself human.
So far as I can see, there's no
object in propagation if we can't
produce anything better in our
line than the sort of children
Josephine Lawrence writes about.
The book, on the whole, is a grand
argument for birth control. Don't
have children and enjoy a COM
Portable pleasant old age. Do
have children and accept charity
in the old folks home.

Mile Rubnsten said. When I came TO Paris TO
work with her ten years ago, she told me that I
would have to work exceptionally hard. 1t is not
enough that you are my niece she told me. Be
cause of that, you will have to work harder than any
one else. You must watch for things that other
persons do not do if there is dust in the corner and
no one removes it, you must dust"
1T is interesting to work with her, and more
interesting to live with her. She seems to always
be doing something and she has faculty for seeing
many things which unobserved by others. If she
goes to antique SALE she is likely to find some rare

has overlooked. She has many hobbies. the latest
of which is the collection of Negro Mosques"
