FRENCH NUDISTS
 DRIVEN INDOORS
Cold Weather Forces Pari- sians to Do Exercises

BY REYNOLDS PACKARD TInited Prcss Staff COrrcSDOndent

| II
 Paris, (UP)-A drizzly cold win- ter has driven the 30,000 Partisan nudists to cover with the exception of some 200 ardent members of the naked cult, who appear once a week amid the cockleburrs of the Naturist Island on the Seine.
 Although driven indoors, the majority are not hibernating. They strip themselves in nudariums and practice their gymnastics under the health-giving rays of sky lighs and viole lamps.
 There are about ten 'nudariums here which are sponsored by Ma turist societies. These are veritable schools of nakcdness where begin ners are taught to disrobe grad ually until finally, after months of training, they do their exercises in mixed company.
 Besides the more or less public nudariums, the wealthier enthusi- asts have their own private ones, which generally are large enough to hold 0 score of friends. It is estimated hat more than 200 houses in the Paris area have been renovated to make room for nudist activities.
 A number of nudists, who have nothing to do but look after their health, have migrated to the south of France for the winter and have joined the naturist camps there.

FINANCING PLAN
 UP 62 PER CENT
Further Expansion of New Activities in 1885 Be-
 ing Promised
By Otto F.. Sturm United Press Financial Writer)

| New York - (UP) - A boom In the investment market during 1884 brought volume of new se- curities offered to the public back over the billion dollar mark and promised further expansion of new financing activities in 1885. The 1884 gain amounted to 62 per cent over 1883.
 l While the most striking devel- opment was an amazing recovery in municipal credit throughout the country, a hardly less import ant feature was the reopenlng of the market to major financing op- perations by railroads and other corporations.
 | The largest railroad issue in years was floated in July in the form of $50,000,000 Pennsylvania Railroad 4 1-4s, due 1884. It was followed two weeks later by a like amount of Baltimore Ohio 4 1-2s, due 1899. Investors responded to both, as well as some smaller car- Tier flotations.
 Similar success crowned efforts to market large public utility is- sues.
 State and municipal issues to- taled $671, ,652,413, against $384,- 722.4O3 in 1883, railroad $113,21O,- 900, against $12,000,O0O, public utility $9S,1S1,000, against $71,- 144,000 and industrial $8,60O,0O0 against $100,0O0.
 Municipalities and states all over the country borrowed at low , interest costs as their credit rat ings were boosted by better tax collections and slashing of bud- gets. Bankers were eager to bid for issues. Scarcity of high grade municipal bonds sent prices up to highest levels of the present cen- tury. Strength spread to lower grades.
 New York City was able to bor- | row short-term money at the cheapest rates in its history. It's credit standing improved. to en- able 1t to float the first long term ! bonds since 1891. The State of New York obtained O,O00,0O0 at record low interest of 1.8343 per cent.
 Chicago borrowed on corporate tax warrants at an interest cost of | only 5 per cent, the first time since the World War the city had been | able to market an issue of this kind at less than per cent. Following are new security off, ferings in 1884. by groups, com pared with 1933:

Wm ,. Baxter. CorTespondent-Phone Naugatuck e72.9

Naugatuck, January 3 - P. August Johnson, chairman of the Progressive party town commit tee, has been chosen to attend the National Convention for Social In- surance, Old Age. Pension and Unemployment Insurance, which will be held in Washington, D. C., January 5, and 2, it was an- nounced today. The executive com- mittee of the local party held a regular meeting Monday and de- cided the party should be repre- scented because of the unusual amount of interest manifested by local groups in the issues con- cerned.
 Naugatuck Eagles have long been sponsors of Old Age Pension and other societies have adde d their support in this matter. MT Johnson, who is an enthusiast in regard to Old Age Pensions and Unemployment Insurance, has been prominent in the Progressive civic/activity in this borough for many years. His career Is a record of strong Individuality and high purpose.
 His selection is taken by some as an indication that the Progress sive party is not dead in Nauga- tuck. In the last two elections the progressive vote decreased con- siderably here and some thought that the party might not be heard of again for some years after the recent November election. How ever, this indicates 1t may be ac- tive in the spring voting.
 Joseph Nygren of Trowbridge place was selected last week as one of the two delegates to this confer ence by a Waterbury group spon- soring such delegation. Both he and MT Johnson, who is a former burgess, will leave Friday for Washington.
 A meeting of the Waterbury group will be held at the Central "Y" tomorrow and Professor Dor othy Douglas of Smith College will talk on social insurance.
 The meeting will start at o'clock.
