Eight Girl Guides from France
have been enjoying a visit to Camp
Edith Macy e Briarcliff Manor,
New York. In the group were
girls from England, one Spanish
representative and many Americans
explaining to each other the tech
niques of their own organizations.
The French girls, whose trip was
financed by the Carnegie Endown-
ment for international Peace, was
in charge of Mile. Marguerite Marie
Roy, nurse. The group visited
Chicago to study housing and
went to Philadelphia, Washington
and New York, where they studied
the markets, the Medical Center

House. Camp Edith Macy is {

Now that Mrs. Felicia M. Pad.

In view of this fact, blowing
under stalks for boil weevil con-
troll is really no extra trouble, as
it should be done anyway by all
good cotton farmers.
To get the best results in weevil
control, he added, whole communi-
ties should cooperate. If one grow
er leaves his stalks standing, weev-
lis from his, fields may infest his

Decision Leaves Outlook

Are Affected.
Special Dispatch to The Star.

SpCSiol AiobneSA w hS 0"uhs
NEW YORK, February 22.-"The
T. v. A. decision focused attention
this week on the outlook for the
utilities" Business Week will say in
its issue tomorrow. "They found the
Supreme Courts ruling disappoint-
ing. partly because it left so many
pertinent questions unanswered.
"The extensive expansion programs
that many of them have planned may
be held down until the Legality OF
the holding company act and P. w.
AS financing of municipality op-
Grated plants is decided.
"Non-ferrous markets that have
been counting on substantial volume
of business from the utilities on the
strength Of decision against the
Government were also disappointed.
However, they see orders ahead under
the pressure OF increasing power de-
mandS.
Real Estate Looks Good.
"Urban real estate again looks good
to life insurance companies. Since
January some 45 OF them nave
invested over $34,700,O0O in city mort
cages, against less than $6.300,000 in
cages against less than s6.3D0,000 in
the same period of 1885. Urban mort
cages absorbed 14.4 per cent of life
insurance funds invested this year,
against a mere 23 per cent in the
same weeks last year.
Largely because some cities OBJ
served February IL as holiday, and
partly because continued cold weather
cut down sales volume, check trans
actions took such nosedive from the
preceding week that Business Week S
index of business activity dipped
sharply. Compared with year ago,
however, check transactions still show
a favorable margin in all sections of
the country, with marked improve
ment in the industrial East and on
the West Coast.
Auto Output Higher.
"Motor production schedules were
expanded this week following several
weeks of contraction. The month,

will be closed at pm. Other rules
covering the payment state:
"All creditors are required to bring
their receivers certificates for indorse-
ment of this dividend, and no dividend
checks will be issued unless this Ger.
tificate is presented. Where accounts
are in joint names, both parties must
sign the receipt for check.
Where accounts are in the hands
of executors, administrators, guar
dians or trustees, by court appoint
ment, an up-to-date certification of
appointment must be produced. Pay
ment will be made by checks of the
controller of the currency only, and
no cash will be given.
"All available windows at the bank
will be open. yet it is requested, to
avoid congestion, that those who can
conveniently do so, kindly postpone
claiming dividends for several days,
since checks can be obtained later at
any time suited to their convenience. "
Bonus Bond Loans Suggested.
There have been a number of ways
suggested by which the veterans bonus
might be financed without increased
taxation or the issuing of additional
currency. Joseph Mead, editor Of the
Economic Forum, has suggested that
the banks do the financing as new
means of employing idle funds.
Mr.. Mead proposed that provisions
be made for veterans to negotiate a
loan at their bank to meet current
expenses. using their bond as collat-
eral security for the loan. In this
way, he contended, it will be possible
to encourage the ex-soldiers to retain
a portion of their bonds for future
needs. and also, keep a large supply
of bonds from coming on the market
at one time. Banks should charge a
preferential rate of interest for such
loans, he added.
If, however. the veteran wished to
dispose of his entire allotment rather
than using his bond for collateral for
small current needs, the banks should
acquire the bond outright and en-.
courage its purchase by thrifty citi-
zens in the community, he concluded

however, will fall short of both Jan
uary's estimated total of 10000, and
last February's output Of 353, ,78l.
Whether production Will be accel-
Grated sufficiently in the next few
weeks to lift March totals above the
45l, 1853 Of last year will depend pretty
much on how the public takes to
cars next month. A SOC, ,000-car
month, comparable to April, 1895,
seems unlikely this year under the
stabilization scheme of production.
"The posted increase in copper
prices by a leading producer a few
days prior to the T. v. A. decision
brought a heavy volume of buying by
foreharided customers at the 9A-cent
level. Observers. believe that, despite
the temporary setback caused by the
court decision, the market is. strong
enough to follow the higher price in
the not-distant future.
Machine Index Rises.
"The January machine tool index
reached 1l0.s per cent of the 1926
level, against 98.3 per cent in Decem-
Der. The first quarter of 1896 thus
gets a flying start and should exceed
by a wide margin the 603 per cent
average of the first quarter of 1895.

pressed disappointment that lumber

duced in the first half of 1885, in

pairs, a rs per cent increase over
1884.
Rubber consumption in January
reached level that has been attained
only three times since 1929. 1t was 13

1929 Conditions Recalled.

Observing brokers say the situation
hasn't yet reached a point where they
have to turn down the bootblacks,
porters and the like seeking to open
margin accounts, and they are hoping
that the Stock Exchange will not en-
gage the serious attention of these
and other small income groups who
were all over the bull market of 1929
when it went to pieces.
Analysts have been comparing pres
ent values in the stock list with the
yardstick which many believed in dur
ing the soaring days of 1928-9. And
they nave found quite a number Of
shares selling for 20 to 30 times earn
ings, which was considered sound
ratio before the crash. but was gen.
orally repudiated in the later period
Of sober reflection.
The prices, of course, are set against
the earnings of 1885. Not only that,
but they also have dug up fair num-
Der of shares selling at respectable
prices which earned nothing at oil
last year.
They point out, however. that this
is not representative of the list as a
whole, because there are many equities
on which good earnings were reported
in 1885 which are selling at from 8
to IL times per share profits, and some
on an even more favorable ratio.
Writers Confused.
With the stock market doing this,
that and the other thing, commits
sion house letter writers appear to be
much confused as to the advice they
should give the customers regarding
trends.
A letter recently sent out by one of
the leading brokerage concerns with
complete candor, stated: I'VE don't
know what to do about the immediate
market situation"
Another analyst, apparently CROP
ing for the light, wrote that I'VE
would pursue cautious policy with
respect to new commitments"

Small investors Re-entering

BY BERNARD S. O'HARA,
Associated Press Financial Writer.

NEW YORK, February 22.-Some
Of the brokers are little jittery over
the obstinate refusal of the market to
show a normal reaction" It has
been virtually a one-way affair since
early in 1885 and the increased volume
of the last few weeks prompted the
suggestion that a good deal of stock
may have passed from strong hands
to persons who might not be prepared
to meet sharp corrective movement
Partners in certain Of the large
Stock Exchange commission houses
say there is plenty of evidence that
small people" have been coming into
the market in larger numbers during
the last few months.
There has been considerable trans
fer of accounts from the banks to the
brokers. they say. But they are quick
to add that operators of such accounts,
picking up in the brokers Offices where
they left off in the banks, are doing
most of their buying on cash basis,
or nearly so.
