NEW TREASURY
MOVE CONFUSES
STOCK TRADERS
Street Regards President
RooSeVeIt'S Speech as
BeariSh.
BY ELMER c. WALLER
United Press Financial Editor

NEW YORK. Aug. 9-Markets Of
the nation we're confused in the
afternoon dealings today and so
we're the traders who interpreted
vsriously a silver naturalization
plan and a speech by President
Roosevelt.
Wall street regarded the Presi-
dents speech as bearish, but just
as it received the account of it,
Secretary Morgenthau announced
the treasury would take over all
domestic silver The latter item
was interpreted in some quarters
as infationary. Europeans sold the
dollar, and the pound sterling
crossed s5O7. bringing the London
gold equivalent above American
parity.
L. 8. Bonds Active
Meantime some shorts covered in
the metal shares. Momentary
strength in the latter was helpful
for the main list But another re-
action wiped out the gains. There
were other spurts Of the miners, but
on each stock was encountered. The
general level of the market, how
ever. held above the days lows with
prices irregularly higher
There was more trading in United
States government bonds than in all
other groups combined. AT l p. m.
the federal government loans had
a turnover of s5.580,000, while
foreign loans had sales of s750,000
and domestic issues, S3680,000
Prices of the group of governments
we're depressed 1872 to = point in
the early trading but after the Presi-
dents speech they recovered sharply
from the lows
Commodities behaved about the
same as the stock market, rising
one minute and falling the next
Cotton futures rose sharply from
their lows and made new highs for
the season.

DUT to expect them to police their

respondent as carrying their re
sponsibilities a little too far. One
department store hardly would be
expected to initiate proceedings
against another to force it out vi
business, even if it INDUCED in sharp
practices. 1t is doubtful that 1t
could do so if it wished.
Investment banking firms have
the same difficulties. They have
an Investment Bankers Association,
and this association seems to be
doing its best 10 raise the standard
of business ethics in the field. Even
during the period when so many
bad loans we're being floated that
association was calling the public >
attention TO irregularities which ex-
listed. The records will show, for
instance. that 1t severely criticised
real estate financing practices.

His wife wanted him to retire and
play q little :. but all play and no
work makes VIII q wild boy.
That, in brief. is the story OF win
Rogers latest picture. Handy Andy"
coming to the Paramount theater on
Friday. Advance reports from the
previews say this Is the funniest
comedy of his career. And the high
lights Of the story bear this out.
Will Is getting along comfortably
IN his drug store. when his wife,
Peggy Wood. persuades him to sell
out. First he takes up pigeon rails
ing, but he has to stop that when his
pets fly all over the house. Next
he takes up golf, with uproarious re-
suits. Then his wife and daughter,
Mary Carlisle, persuade him to at
tend the Mardi 0ras In New Orleans.
That's when things really begin to
happen. Will begs off from attend.
ing the Comus costume ball. Wan
dering around alone, he gets acquatn-
ted with . fellow druggist and his
dashing girl friend, Conchita Nom
tenegro. A few cocktails make him
change his mind about the ball, and
he attends with Conchita, choosing Z
Tarzan kopard-slin costume. A few
more cocktails help persuade him ia
do IN hilarious adagio dance with
Conchita-and The ball breaks UP IA
. riot.
OF course there's more to the story
than that. Much more. Among
other things, WIN serves O. cupid Il,
his daughters romance with . young
man his wife doesn't approve Of. And
there's Z surprise ending ,that can't
b tipped Oft In advance.
