The pork market. although still
depressed somewhat by heavy re-

forced the top to $l0.15. Heavy
butcher classes, ranging from 300

pounds sold at $945 to 1895. Pack
ing sows held at $875 to $3.50.

to election as president two years

WE may now see what would

OF course the bankers will do no
such thing. Nevertheless, this new
bond issue will add many nun
dreds of millions to the excess re-
serves OF the banks and immediate
ly the problem of the excess re-
serves will come TO the front.
The bankers now have another
suggestion. Many of the bond is

issues. In fact, in this present
financing of Sl,318,000 900, about
S418,000,000 of it is in notes made

Utilities Needs Seen

Prospectuses issued by public util-

recent refunding issues have almost
uniformly disclosed that the utilities
have done little about plant expan-
sion and moderniZation during the
last four or five years.
With electrical output mounting
to new high levels, it is believed in
some quarters that considerable help
to the capital goods industry ought
to come from that source without
much longer delay.
It is not often that a method OF
financing is described as both fair
and clever, yet some of the recent
issues of convertible bonds in re-
funding operations have been given

Brazilian Bonds Active

The issue of convertible bonds is
credited with being clever on the
part of a corporation management
because it enables the virtual sale of
stock at a time when a straight of
fer of stock might not succeed, and
it is called fair to the creditors of
the corporation because it allows
them to participate in the results Of
expected recovery at time when
recovery in almost all lines is gener-
ally expected.
The revolutionary situation in
Brazil contributed an unexpectedly
active interlude in the dollar bonds
of that country, the first news pre-
cipitating fairly sharp down trend
and the subsequent developments
leading to an equally sharp recovery.
After more than a month of alb
sence the Treasury is again, at least
nominally, in charge of the govern
ment bond market, pending compile
ton of the heavy December f1nanc-
ing operations.

Construction Is Factor.

Bond market followers interpret
these beginnings of plant expansion
activity as a confident outlook by
corporation executives. The years OF
depression are believed to have
stored up enough goods in the way
OF plant requirements to assure
wide swing for capital goods, once
it establishes momentum.
Construction figures also continue
to encourage the industrial section
of the bond market Awards of the
last week frightened the outlook
considerably. Private construction.
still minor factor in comparison
with public work, nevertheless is
moving ahead substantially. Bonds
in the building group have done A
great deal toward diScounting i'm
proved activity, but support for that
group is still noticeably strong.
State and municipal engineering
awards are running heavy, but some
thing of a contrary influence springs
from the fact that most commun-
tiles have developed a. check on
further borrowings.

Times Special Writer

NEW YORK. Dec. 5.-The in
duStrial section of the bond list is
developing strong line of support
because of increasingly tangible evil
dence that some of the larger corp
orations are putting plant expansion
and improvement plans into opera
ton.
The steel industry is especially
prominent in contributing evidence
of such activity. Some of the larger
motor units also have been added to
the procession.
In many quarters this activity il
accepted as reliable beginning Of
capital goods movement. Heavy in
dustry is expected to be definitely in
the march of recovery at the turn Of

MARRIAGE AS A PLAYTHINC

In the minds of some newly mar
ried people, the husband or the wife
is just a new kind of toy. to be
played with until its shine wears off.
Then that particular plaything will
be thrown away and some new toy
will be sought
In former years people had to
struggle hard just to make a living.
After they had. finished the days
work, they were too tired for sport
ing life, and were satisfied to stay
around home, or go in for simple
pleasures. But as money circulated
more freely, tribe of pleasure low
ing people developed, whose princi-
pal idea was to have high old time
People of that type must have
some new thrill all the time. Get
ting married was one of these thrills.
Some pretty face or manly form
would stir their natures. and give
them for the time being a sense of
satisfaction. So they would get mar
ried without much regard to whether
their tastes were really congenial.
or how far they were willing to CO.
operate to make a happy home.
The husband or the wife was
something to play with, a nice COM
panion in sporting life. But when |
life is regarded from that point of
view, the new toy looks less pleas
ing after a time The husband sees
another pretty face, the wife is fas-
cinated by someone else's charm,
and jealousies appear. Each of
them usually wants his or her own
way, and soon the domestic nest is
a scene of jarring discord
Earnest work is a kind of necessity
for successful living. People whose
minds are concentrated on having
| good. time and are always looking
or some new toy to play with. are
lot likely to make a success of mar
iage.

SHOULD WE WEAKEN
THE CONSTITUTION! (!

Whether we realize 1t or not, It is
the Constitution which protects the
ownership and the sanctity of the
home. 1t is the Constitution which
safeguards the independence and
rights of the worker. 1t is the Con-
stitutiOn which maintains the sane
tity of contract. And, finally, it is
the Constitution which guarantees
and supports the rights, the liber-
ties and the privileges for which the
fOrefathers of the nation fought when
they changed America from a for
eign-dominated colony to a free ma
tiOn dedicated to the proposition
that all men are created equal.
Those who would. change the Con-
stitutiOn would do so on the suppo-
sitiOn that it is out of date-that it
is no longer capable of meeting the
problems, the conditions, the issues
of the times. If that is true, human
liberty is out of date. Individual
freedom is out of date. Democratic
government-which has as its guild
ing principle that the people are
the masters, not the servants of gov
ernment-is out of date. Private
initiative and individual ambition
are out of date.
Every time we tamper with the
Constitution we weaken it. Under
the existing Constitution, a delicate
balance of power is maintained be-
tween the central government and
the As state governments. The Fed
eral Government is enabled to do
that which individual states could
not efficiently do-while the states
are left free to make laws, rulings,
regulations and policies that are in
accord with the beliefs and needs of
their people.
If we broaden the powers of the
Federal Government we shall simply
be giving bureaucracy a greater free
and unchecked field for action-at
the expense of the states. of industry, !
Of workers, of every citizen.
