PULLS UP 20 FISH
IN SINGLE CAST!

Worthington-At least one of
the fisherman who besieged Okla
bena for bullheads a week ago
was astounded by his luck. He
caught 20 bullheads, three carp,
three crappies and three pike in
one cast. When his line snagged
in some wire he pulled to the sur
face an elaborate fish trap that
had been planted near a culvert
under grade. The catch caused
quite a sensation along the water
front. The game fish were re-
turned to the lake and the trap
destroyed. Fish traps in any form
are illegal, and the person who
planted the trap is subject to ar
rest and heavy fine.

FIGHT SOCIAL
DISEASES

Medical and social groups of
the city have been invited to at
tend a conference with District
Health Officer DR.. George C.
Rutland today to plan a fight to
exterminate social diseases in the
city.
Announcing the conference, DR..
Rutland indicated his belief that
the best available means to COM
bat the growing menace is to
establish polyclinics over the city
instead of having special clinics
for the treatment of social dis
eases.
Persons afflicted are reluctant
to go to a special clinic, feeling
that their malady is then identi-
fled by the general public, DR..
Rutland said, and, because OF
this embarrassment, they neglect
treatment. A polyclinic where
all types of diseases are treated
would solve the major problem,
the health officer stated.

STEEL SHARES
MEET GOOD
DEMAND
By LESLIE GOULD

NEW YORK, June 16 U.N.SO.
An active demand for steel shares
around noon accelerated activity
in the stock market today and i'm
proved the general tone after a
quiet, irregularly higher forenoon
session.
Gains in steels ran to more than
2 points. Bethlehem and U. S.
Steel each gained a point, along
with National Steel.
Rails and motors were we'll
above previous closing levels. Union
Pacific spurted a point, while
ChrySler did nearly as well. N. Y.
Central, General Motors, Southern
Pacific, and Northern Pacific
showed fair-sized fractional gains.
Merchandising shares, also ex-
pected to benefit greatly from
bonus funds, were buoyant
throughout. Woolworth spurted a
point, while Allied Stores hit a new
high for the year.
Douglas Aircraft regained most
of its early 112-point drop to steady
the aviation department. Utilities
continued in fair demand. Cop
pers and oils were higher, but
generally quiet.
Bonds maintained a firm front.

CAPITAL TRADE
IMPROVES

Washington business continued
to improve last week, according
to the review of the Department
of Commerce which state that
department stores reported in
creased buying of summer ap-
parel and furnishings during the
week as a result of rising tenn
peratures. Sales increased 11.2
per cent over the previous week
and 11.8 per cent over the same
1885 week.
Bank clearings were up 11.9
per cent from the previous week
and topped the corresponding
1885 week by 24.6 per cent, the
best weekly gain over last year
in some time.
Building activities were con-
Siderably accelerated, with the
value of building permits climb
ing to $1,571,1OO from $685., 1853
in the previous week and $685.
300 in the corresponding week
last year. Figures for the latest

By EDWARD KIRCKER

NEW YORK, June 16 QN.S0.
Curb stocks continued irregularly
higher in later dealings with price
changes on both sides slight, de-
spite moderate trading activity.
The power shares were again
dominating the list from the stand
point of both activity and gains.
There were only a few gains of
point or more even in the utilities.
A few soft spots appeared, nota-
bly, Jersey Central 6 per cent, EN-
pire Gas 7 per cent preferred, each
of which turned down a point.
The new Oklahoma natural gas
issue eased fractionally.

higher levels irregularity began to
appear in the oils as Gulf dropped

WHEAT ACTIVE
ON DECLINE

CHICAGO, June 16 G.N.SO.
Wheat prices worked downward
in today's active early dealings.
Prices yielded from 12@1c a bushel,
September dropping to 88b from
80 before recovering partially.
Fairly heavy precipitation in
dry sections of Canada and fore
cast for cloudy weather in the
Dakotas led to rather liberal offer
ings here, but good support was in
evidence and prices yielded grudg-
ingly.
Corn and other grains were
mixed in slow trading.
Near mid-session wheat was "a
@Ac off, corn unchanged to 2sc
off, and Rye 12@5sc off. Oats
were unchanged to 1sc up.
Winnipeg wheat was 1@1Hc
off early and Liverpool closed H@
"a pence up, not as strong as ex
pected.

ON RAIL
RULE SOUGHT

Declaring that the Federal
regulation Of rail transportation
has gone too far, r. V. Fletcher,
general counsel of the Associa-
ton of American Railroads, to.
day urged that a curb be placed
on further encroachment by Fed
eral authorities into the mana
gerial powers of those response
BILE for the operation of Ameri-
can railroads.
Speaking in Rochester, N. Y,
before a joint luncheon Of the
Chamber of Commerce and the
Chamber Traffic Club Of that
City, Mr.. Fletcher said:
"The Interstate Commerce
Commission, which has a long
and honorable record for dis
interested public service, has
grown from a simple regulat-
ing body established in 1887
to make certain that railroad,
rates are reasonable and non
discriminatory. into. an. au-
thority which touches almost
every phase of railroad activi-'
ties. Recently there has been
manifested a disturbing ten
dency on the part Of the Com
mission unduly to extend its
activities and authority into
fields which have been hither-
to considered as belonging ex-
cluSiyely to the management"
Mr.. Fletcher said that for the
last three years there has been
dual control of the railroads
so far as the Federal Govern
ment is concerned with the Inter
state Commerce Commission on
one hand and the Federal Co.
ordinator of Transportation on
the other. The office of the Co
ordinator, he added, will cease
to exist on June II unless some
additional legislation should be
enacted by Congress. Mr..
Fletcher said:
"The experience Of the rail-
roads under the cOOrdinatOr has
not been such as to carry con-
viction that the office should
be continued beyond its present
expiration date. There would
seem to be no necessity for any
regulating body other than the
Interstate Commerce Commits
sion and, indeed, the Commits
sion has been vested with
more authority than any single
body can properly or wisely
exercise"
The Washington times., 1936-06-16
FIRMS NET
5OPCT. MORE
IN 1895

Reports from 1899 corporations
covering 1895 operations are now
available, and sufficient represen-
tation in each major industrial
group is at hand to permit a de-
tailed analysis Of corporate profits
for that year, says the Standard
Statistics Company.
These companies, including in
dustrials, rails and utilities, report
combined net income for 1885 Of
$2,477, ,032, 900, compared with ST.
649, 545, 900 for 1884, an increase Of
50.2 per cent. Broken down into
the three major classifications, the
increase on the industrial group
was GIG per cent. utilities 13 per
cent, while the railroads secured a
small aggregate profit, against an
aggregate deficit in 1884.
Double Profits
One Of the most encouraging
features of the corporate expert
ence last year was the marked re-
covery in earnings of heavy indus
tries. Building supply, machinery
and electrical equipment lines, for
example, reported total profits
more than double those in 1884,
while the steel trade operated
profitably for the first time since
1890.
Not all Of the entries for 1885,
however, were on the credit side
of the ledger. Real estate enter
prises showed an aggregate deficit,
even though the loss was smaller
than that in 1884. The experience
in the silk trade was similar,
while a deficit developed in the
coal industry, compared with a
profit the year before.
Some Earn Less
There were also a number of
lines which showed smaller earn
ings in 1885. Included among
these are medicines and drugs,
railroad equipment, grocery chains.
general chains, radio, miscellan-
eouS services, asphalt and cement,
food, ice refrigeration, cotton
goods, cigarettes and gold.
On the other hand, there were
several lines which moved from the
loss to the profit column last year.
These are agricultural machinery,
aircraft, leather, shipping and
shipbuilding, and woolen goods
trades.

COTTON PRICES
WORK HIGHER

NEW YORK, June 16 G.N.SO.
Cotton futures worked moderately
higher in later dealings, extending
opening gains as fair demand con-
tinued. The single, old-crop con-
tract, July, participated in the ad-
vance. Trading was not very &C.
tive and the market inclined to
dullneSS.
The trade, wire houses, the Far
East, and the Continent were all
moderate buyers against selling by
locals, commission houses, and the
South.
For the second time in recent
weeks the July delivery broke out
of its l. and 2-point range as the
Government pool again tempo
rarily ceased selling the month.
Towards noon the market con-
tinued a quiet affair, with July
quoted at 11.73, up 4; October,
1923, up S; December, 11.20, up S,
and March, 1120, up 4 points.
