For Hard Coughs or
Colds That Worry You

CreomulSion is made to give su-
preme help for coughs or colds. It
/ combines helps in one-the best
helps known to science. 1t is for
quick relief, for safety.
/ But careful people, more and
more, use it for every cough that
starts. No one knows where a
cough may lead. No one can tell
which factor will do most. That
depends on the type of cold.
CreomulSion costs little more
than lesser helps. But it means
the utmost help. And it costs you
nothing if it fails to bring the
quick relief you seek. Your drug
gist guarantees it. Use it for

RAILS DECLINE
ON IRREGULAR
BOND LIST
By SAUL LEHRER

NEW YORK, Dec. % GN.SO.
Offerings in the rails gave the
bond market a generally irregular
appearance today. Trading was
only of moderate proportions.
While the losses in the second
grade and more speculative rails
were only fractional, there did not
appear to be any aggressive sup
port buying coming into the group.
Chicago and Northwestern con-
vertible 424s held unchanged at
their low for the year and the st.
Paul SIS were down 1s to 20H.
More pronounced weakness was
apparent in the medium-priced
section of the rail group. While
500 Line As gained l at 301a, the
IS A of 1946 dropped 2 to 10. Le-
high Valley As of 2003 sold down
l to SO and the New Haven IS of
1910 dropped ~ to Sc. Despite
the weakness in the New York city
traction stocks, the Interborough
bonds were strong. Interborough
SIS OF 1866 actually gained "a at
66, while other of the company's
obligations held unchanged.
United States Governments were
moderately irregular in light trad
ing. Treasury As gained 5-32 at
1924, Home Owners Loan IS
though dipped 2-32 to 99.17. Bra
lillian liens were strong spots in
the foreign government section as
the 612S rose nearly q point to
312s. Other foreigns were quiet
and steady.

RFC To. MANAGE.
RAILROAD

The Reconstruction Finance
Corporation yesterday took over
control of the Moffat railroad in
Colorado.
John w. Barriger, chief exam
iner for the Interstate Commerce
Commission, announced here that
Wilson Mccarthy, of Oakland.
Cal, former RFC member, will
be president of the Moffat.
Most of the stock of the rail.
road will be transferred to the
RFC as trustee, Barriger said,
and the present officials of the
line will resign.
The examiner said the RFC
was forced to take over the road
to protect $10,500.000 in loans
outstanding against the D. & R.
G. w, which agreed to purchase
the Moffat stock when it was
granted permission to construct
the DotSero cutoff in Western
Colorado.
This line connects the Moffat
road, from Denver through the
Moffat tunnel and over the cut.
off, to the D. & R. G. w. tracks
in Western Colorado, giving the
Rio Grande a new tranSconti-
mental rail line through this
State.
The Rio Grande agreed to pur-
chase 10000 shares of Moffat
stock when the cutoff was con-
structed and 10000 additional
shares, the minority interest, be-
fore July l, 1885, at $155 a
share.
The Rio Grande owed the
RFC $7,500,00O and was forced
to borrow $3,00O,000 more to
purchase the Moffat stock and
to meet other obligations.
With a $10,5OO.000 loan out
standing against the Rio Grande
and the Moffat lines, Barriger
said the RFC decided to take
over the active management Of
the latter road.
