day session, as initial blocks Of
stocks ranging UP to 5000 shares
changed hands in an atmosphere
every bit as dramatic as in the
1929 boom days.
Gains at the start ran from
fractions to o point, with advances
augmented as the session pro-

Such old-line leaders as Ameri-

Central, Montgom merry Ward,
American Can, and General
Electric, were taken in hand for
brisk advances.
American Telephone was up
almost a point to 1854, a new
peak for the year, while others
pushed ahead more sedately as
profit-taking offerings were alb
sorbed in stride.
Although the current advan'
cling phase is now in its sixth
month, the market only recently
began to reflect growing outside
interest in response to indica'
lions that the trade recovery was
gaining Roadway on a broad
front.
Retail Trade BO0mS
The most pronounced improve

in retail trade, where gains are
reported running anywhere from

as steel, motor, building construc

The attempted strike of work

It made no difference to the

LEADERS RUSH
TAX REPORT
International News Service


The Senate Finance Committee
today plunged into the contro'
versial features of President
Roosevelt's tax bill in the appar.
emily futile hope Of finishing up
tonight.
In spite of the strict secrecy on
proceedings it was generally
known today the committee has
ripped the inheritance tax Sched-
ules from the bill. The chairman,
Senator Harrison CD of Missis-
sippi, described all action thus far
as purely tentative" but some
committee members said the in
heritance tax was gone finally, so
far as the committee is concerned.
When the bill reaches the floor,
Senator Harrison and other Ad-
ministration supporters will move
to put the inheritance feature
back and, in all probability, they
will be successful.
Senator Harrison declared the
250-million-dollar bill would go to
the Senate floor Monday after
noon. To accomplish this, a favor
able report would not necessarily
have to come today. The COM
mittee ~ould meet Monday morn
ing, vote to report and bring it
into the Senate in the afternoon.
The Senate's Democratic leader,
Senator Joseph Robinson OF Ar.
kansas, has predicted the tax bill
will be out of the way and ad-
journment accomplished by next
Saturday. This, in the eyes OF
other leaders, is a matter of ex'
treme doubt. A number Of the
most influential Democrats in the
Senate pick August 81, % or %
! as the most likely dates.

Picard, Strat0 Student
VIII Teach at MINI. "U.'

The University of Minnesota will have
the first chair of instruction in the
stratosphere yet established in America,
and to fill it during the spring quarter,
beginning in April, has appointed Pro-
lessor Jean F.. Picard, famous the world
over as one of the two brothers who
made the first stratosphere flight in
Belgium and who subsequently has
made stratosphere flights that have
added tremendously to the scientific
worlds knowledge of the upper area.
Announcement of his appointment for
a quarter of three months was made at
a meeting of the Board of Regents on
December IL.
Professor John D. Alderman, head
of the division of aeronautical engineer
ing, said that Professor Picard will
conduct courses in the study of the
stratosphere with reference to heavier
than air craft, with which actual
stratosphere travel must be carried on.
Accents into the stratosphere up to now
have been made in balloons, which are
lighter than air, although it is probable
that some heavier than air craft flyers
have reached the stratosphere, among
them the late Wiley Post.
He will also conduct studies relating
to the stratosphere itself, to examine
its nature and relations to other parts
of the upper air and to the earth.
Professor Picard, whose wife is with
him in this country, is a graduate of
the Swiss Institute of Technology at
Zurich. He has taught at the Uni
versity of Lausanne, at Massachusetts,
Institute of Technology, University of
Chicago, and has been associated with
several industrial companies in Ameri-

May Charge for Parking
on Duluth City Streets.

Duluth-Duluthians who have oc-
casion to park their automobiles in the
downtown business section may soon
have to pay cash for that privilege.
An ordinance to install 200 meters in
the downtown blocks is now before the
city council Under the meter system,
blocks where cars can be parked are
divided into Is or 20 feet sections, each
supplied with meter. AS the motorist
parks the car, five cents is deposited
in the meter slot. 1t then shows the
car is entitled to the space for one
hour, at the end of which it also in
dicates that time is up and the car is
not authorized to be there any longer.
The patrolman on the beat then tags
the vehicle, the meter making it easy
to keep tab on the cars. The company
which installs the meters at no cost to
the city collects the first $50 revenue
each meter produces, after which all
revenue goes to the city.

and wardens, amazed at the open dis

by the fact that illegal hunting has
been widespread here. Taken to head
quarters, one warden discovered the
mistake when he had local hotel cook
a sample steak. One bite told the story
and the carcass was "unseized'' as
quickly as it had been confiscated.
