to the satisfaction of the financial community although none now be- lieves war will result at this time. As for the floods the actual losses have not yet been measured and some be- lieve the market has not fully re- acted to the huge economic destruc- ton,
 Meanwhile business which had been hard hit in the flood areas, was recovering. Steel operations jumped { points as plants reopened in flood sections. Automobile production gained as did building in the areas other than those involved in the floods, Electricity production and car Headings declined sharply. Re- tail trade made substantial gains.
 Commodity prices were irregular with tho indexes showing very little change on the week. Some experts fel that commodities would drop sharply at least for Q time if the French were forced of the gold standard. Some commodities add vanced during the week for special reasons. Sugar futures stood out, making new highs for eight years.
 Outlook for heavier demand for new automobiles brought new buy ing into the leading automobile is- sues. General Motors made. new high since 1929 before the late re- action. It held part of its gain. So did several other members of the group, although Chrysler which had been Up more than 3 points on the week, lost all of 1t in the Friday session.
 Farm implement shares made sem sational gains for a time. Case hit a new high. It held Q gain of around points. Chemical issues were bid up sharply with Allied crossing the 200 level. It closed Fri day at 199 still up 6 points from the close week ago. Individual issues in several sections made gains. Anusements were in fair demand when the remainder of the market was under pressure late in the week.
 Higher earnings for the copper companies, notably Anaconda and Kennecott helped that group for time, although the subsequent sell- oqff erased all the gains. Utilities moved narrowly and registered but small losses on the week. Steels also were down fractions from Q week ago. Silver shares were weak.
 The most important item market wise in the domestic news was the decision of the federal reserve to abolish the present complicated mar gin rules on May 1 and substitute flat margin rate of 55 per cent of the market value of stocks. Brokers did not believe this would make any dif- ference at this time because accounts are very well margined. It might, they thought, tend to slow up specu- lative operations, however.

JUDGE MASOCLO
 RULES MISTRIAL
Case of Alleged IntOxi- cated Driver Given
 Continuance

Evidence which he said had come to his attention indirectly and which he felt might prejudice his decision led Judge Edward Mascolo to declare a mistrial today in the case of Angelo Capaldo, 30, of 1440 North Main street, charged with evading responsibility and operat- ing under the influence of liquor. The case was continued to April 13, when Judge John r. McGrath will be on the city court bench.
 Continued several times since the arrest of Capaldo on the evening of March l by Officers Begg and Mur- phy of the motor patrol, the case was put over until this morning after a lengthy hearing in city court yesterday. Attorney Fred Bauby, appearing for Capaldo, told the court that key witness unable to be present yesterday, would be able to testify this morning.
 Capaldo was booked at police headquarters following the accident, in which his car knocked down about 30 feet of highway fence on Thomaston avenue and crashed in- to another machine. He was picked up by members of the motor patrol, a according to testimony given yes- terday, as he was walking toward Waterville. Capaldo declared he was on his way to garage for 0 tow Csr

 New York, March 2s (UP)-Trad- ing continued very dull on the stock exchange today, rounding out the lightest week of the year. Prices moved irregularly in a narrow range.
 The list opened irregularly lower and then rallied in all sections. A sizeable list showed gains around the close and Q few special stocks were up a point or more. Liggett & Myers rose 2 points on a single transaction. Crosley Radio made a new top as did Omnibus, Checker Cab, and Father. New lows were made by United Aircraft and Am- erican Rolling Mill.
 Steel shares came back from early lows under the leadership of United States Steel common stock. McKees- port Tin Plate jumped nearly ? points. Cement stocks were in de- rnand with International Cement up more than a point.
 Some of the oil shares registered gains, notably Atlantic Aeflning which gained nearly a point. Motor shares rallied to small net gains. Some of the rails recovered to show advances although Union Pacific was down a point from the previous close
 Utility shares were mixed in a narrow range. Communications were lower with Western Union down a point. Farm Implement issues were dull around previous closing levels. Sugar shares frmed with sugar fu- lures which made new highs for eight years. .Coppers steadied after early irregularity. So did silvers. Allied Chemical lost more than a point while DuPont rose slightly.
 As interest in stocks Jagged, more attention was paid to the foreign exchange market where the dollar scared early in the session in terms of gold currencies. The French franc dropped far below the gold point and 1t was indicated local banks would arrange gold shipments as soon as speedy ships were available.
 Meanwhile the Bank of France in an attempt to stem a possible outflow of gold to New York raised its discount rate from 3l-2 to s per cent. That move steadied the franc and 1t rose from the early low. Then, too, the British equalization fund continued in use to aid the franc which was heavily sold in Eu- ropean markets as well as in New York.

WIDOW APPEALS
 FROM. DECISION
Denies Compensation Here for Death of Husband,
 ABC EmpIOye

Commissioner James M. Lyncf's decision denying compensation to Mrs. Stella Chupek of Ansonia, wi- dow of John Chupek, in her claim against the American Brass Go. was today appealed to the superior court. Tn a finding issued last week, the commissioner held that Chupek's, death as the result of Q fall from a footbridye connecting two buildings of the Ansonia plant of the American Brass Go. was not accidental and not compensable.
 The appeal Is brought for the wi- dow by Attorney Frank w. Daley, of New Haven and Branford, and Attorney Irving Appowitz of New Haven.
 Chupek died Sept. 3, 1895, some hours after he had been found ly- ing along a railroad track below the factory fotbridge. His widow claimed that he had fallen acci- dentally from the bridge while in the employ of the company and should receive compensation.
 Commissioner Lynch held that evidence given him showed that Chupek had swung by his hands from an iron pipe railing outside the footbridge, and had apparently then let himself fall to the ground. There was no evidence, the cornnis- sioner said, to support the widows evidence that her husband had taken sick on the bridge and fallen over. He also held that the claim that the man was on his way to the factory hospital was groundless because the hospital was on an- other floor and in 8 different di- rection.
 Arguments on the appeal will be heard in superior court here.

ring to a certain class of girls in our big city high schools.
 The group might be typified aS the forgotten girl of the high schools She isn't outstanding in her studies, she is not as attractive as other girls, and boys don't take her to social affairs. She needs to get some pleasure out of life. What I tried to explain was that those girls need someone to take an in- tereSt in them, to help them enjoy themselves in social activities. I'm not saying they should neglect their studies students are too prone to do that anyway--but they should have . social outlet"
 Mrs. Wyman, who addressed the association yesterday, was grateful that today is Saturday and there are no classes at her school. Per- haps, she wished, her students will have forgotten about 1t by Monday.

 Rejecting this protest as absolute ly unfounded, Stomoniakov said that 1t did not agree with indis- putable facts.

ECORSE
Community Improvement

Ecorse is a town of considerable
area and a population of about
thirteen thousand, and could be an
| attractive community but is not
The first step toward improvement
is a knowledge of the real needs
The second step toward improve
ment is the discovery of ways and
means to meet these needs. In gen.
eral it may be said the best type of
community Is one which there is
an enthusiastic and genuine inter-
est on the part of adults in these
things that promote the education
al, moral, and physical well-being
of children and young people. This
Is an ideal that demands the best
type Of community. The best type
Of community possesses a high de-
gree Of civic unity and community
pride. If the school spirit is fine
the school is an enjoyable place.
What school spirit is to the school,
community spirit is to the com
munity or town or city. If the
community possesses the right kind
of spirit, it Is easy to secure the
cooperation of churches, clubs,
schools, and citizens in promoting
forthy enterprises. The West side
in Ecorse or the colored district
could, if the people took little
more interest, become the most
beautiful part of Ecorse.
During the village elections the
large voting power of this district
usually swing the election in our
favor.
The students of Ecorse High
School are very ambitious, ener-
getic, and willing to learn, but the
adults seem to be the opposite
| There are about two thousand col
ored residents in Ecorse and for
many years we have hoped that the
village would put sidewalks along
our streets and pave from four
teenth to nineteenth street, but
they have not and will not until
we, the people as a whole, demand
these improvements with the ut
most of our power. In River Rouge
our neighbor city, the colored cti-
zens there, have demanded and Sc
cured all paved streets and side
walks, beautiful trees along each
street, and four colored patrolmen.
Why don't we, this beautiful day
in the summer, take new lease on
life and begin to take notice, and
care for our few streets, alleys,
vacant lots, and private lawns? If
the people of this community pos
sess a marked degree Of communi-
ty pride, these will be kept in ex-
cellent condition.
Another requisite of good com
munity is the providing Of adequate
facilities for the wholesome re-
creation Of children at different
ages. 1t is comparatively easy to

determine whether a community
satisfies this requirement. If ii
does, you will find well equipped
Fairgrounds in this community.
You will also find generous sup
port for such organizations as the
Boy Scouts, Camp Fire Girls, and
other similar associations for
young people.
The best type of community en-
phasizes the importance and the
refining influence of good music,
lecture, entertainments, and books.
In such a community, Libraries are
maintained in the schools and else
where, and citizens are encourage
ed tc use books freely.
The best type of community is
one of comfortable and we'll or
dered homes. In community
where this standard is satisfied, a
great many of the people own their
ONh lOHhCo anu JdhC 6lSdI III luC
in them. The ownership Of a home
makes one feel more a part of the
community. There is however,
more required to make happy and
comfortable home than the mere
ownership of the house or flat. II
is difficult to have a comfortable
home unless the income of a par
ent is sufficient to provide certain
necessities in the way of furniture,
heat, food, and limited number of
books, magazines, musical instru-
ments, and the like. The happiness
of a home is often married by the
i'll health Of one or more of the
family. 1t may also be marred by
the i'll temper and selfishness Of
some of them. 1t is not easy to es-
innate the extent to which the
homes of a community are happy
and comfortable. 1t is however, a
safe conclusion that a community
that possesses active churches,
well kept Fairgrounds, fine schools
industrious people, and a high
average in health is satisfying this
standard.
