DRUG SALES RISE
WELL ABOVE 1886
Substantial Gains Remain
Despite Seasonal Lag in
Recent Months.
srecial Dispatch TO The Star.

NEW YORK, June 25.-Sales of
pharmaceutical and proprietary medi-
clnes, as we'll as other drugs and drug
sunories. have continued to run well
ahead OF those of a year earlier, al
though the usual seasonal contraction
Of shipments has occurred in recent
months. observes the Standard Stats
tics Co Of New York. For the first
four months of the year, wholesale
shipments OF drugs and drug sundries
were indicated by the Department of
Commerce to have been about IL per
cent greater than year ago. while
manufacturers sales Of proprietaries
and pharmaceuticals for the same Pc
riod were up l3 per cent.
Slightly less favorable comparisons
have been recorded subsequently, but
indications are that sales for the first
six months of the year will be at least
10 per cent larger than in the first
half of 1886
Over the longer term. drug manu-
facurers will be little affected bv leg
slation now under consideration by
Congress. The Copeland bill for con-
troll of the drug trade should prove
more of an aid than a hindrance to
reputable proprietary and pharmaceu-
teal producers, because OF restraints
on the sales promotion efforts of less
scrupulous manufacturers. This act.
however. has not received strong sup
port, and it may we'll be that no action
will be taken at the present session of
Congress
Action on the Miller -Tydings bill to
permit the maintenance of nationally
advertised prices at retail has been
temporarily deferred at the instance
of the administration AS only a rel
atively small part of the manufactu-
rer's total costs are accounted for by
labor. wage and hour provisions of the
proposed Black-Connery bill will prove
less burdensome to the drug and cos
metic trades than to many other in

BROKERS OPPOSE
MANY HOLIDAYS
Exchange Members Group
Against Closing When
Banks Are Open.
By the Associated Press.


NEW YORK, June 25.-There are
too many holidays for Wall Street, in
the opinion of the Board OF Governors
of the Association Of Stock Exchange
Member Firms
In a letter to the New York Stock
Exchange today. signed by E. A. Pierce
Of E. A. Pierce d. Co. president Of the
association, it was urged that the ex-
change remain open on Saturdays dur
ing July and August and opposed its
closing on any day the banks were
open.
At the Offices Of the association 1t
was stated this action was taken to
forestall possible closing Of the ex-
change on the Saturday before the
Fourth Of July and also to combat the
move for Saturday closings during the
Summer
1t was also stated that the principal
objections to holidays came from the
wire houses" who are obliged to pay
for their wire facilities on six-day
basis. Some of the larger brokerage
Offices have direct wires to many out
of-toWn points.
1t is an adage in the Street that
when the market is active brokers de-
plore holidays and when trading is
slow they still feel the same way, for
fear they might miss business.

Your Children

or hours when I need to be quiet.
Aproposl of radios and Z study
time, there 10 another point to
make. Families often keep up a
chatter and Q clatter when there
is homework going on. This Is
almost worse than the radio.
The girl trying to get her French
verbs, or her shorthand, needs a
quiet spot to herself. She needs
her own desk, her own light. and
quiet retreat. II she is to sue
coed.
II the radio Is on downstairs, 1t
can be lowered SO that only others
can hear 1t. There is really little
need for blare. Actually 1t will
be enjoyed more II regulated to con-
versation key. or the music to the
soft pedal Of chamber music"
Make the younger children keep
quiet, II they are not In bed. And
try not to interrupt the student.
Night work can be done In half
the time then. And 1t only seems
fair. But, for divers reasons, I
would make Herman turn off the
radio in hts room, II you want him
to get places with his studies.

What cannot understand Is the
habit many people have Of keeping
the radio on from morning till
night.
We visit certain friends OCCASION
ally for a game of bridge. Before
we have our wraps off, our host
turns knob and fiddles for a sta
ton, apologizing for the radio be-
ing off temporarily.
All through the game, 1t goes. I
find myself playing casino or Can
field, anything but bridge, because
can't think unless things are rea-
sonably quiet. can stand a gen.
eral racket, but to concentrate on
two things at once Is beyond my
powers.
eRecently a. mother told me (in-
deed, many have) that her boy
cannot study unless the radio Is
going full speed ahead. She says
she objects, but when she turns 1t
off, he yells.
And this brings me to a flat
statement I've been wanting to
make for years. I simply wouldn't
have 1t.
~. Unlike Ordinary Noises
It goes against every principle Of
concentration and absorption, this
racket business. Not only a racket,
but racket of ideas, of songs, Of
words, and music.
have known people, accustomed
to traffic noises. who could not
work In a quiet office, or others so
accustomed to the clack Of typewrit-
ers that they could not add q coll
,imn right when they stopped. This
is understandable. One might be-
come accustomed to translating
Sanskrit in q boiler factory.
But the radio Is different. It
calls for two things. Emotion and
application-even though these be
almost subconscious with the stu
dent, who Is trying to bisect the
angles Of a parallelogram.
There must be times when the
conscious punctures the surface
OF consciousness, when the tones Of
q certain popular comeian hit the
eardrums Of the worker, or par
ticular tune, or the news comes on.
This means interruption with q
vengeance.
