The final rush came after the
stock market had advanced into new
high ground since 1881. Early in
the session ChrySler, steel shares,
railroad equipment issues. and farm
equipments were strong to carry
the DoW-Jones industrial average to
a new high since 1881. Rails and
utilities firmed although the aver
age were below the peaks of the
year.
Other motor shares joined Chrys-
Ter and General Motors. Auburn ad-
Vanced almost points. Studebak-
or gained almost point to new
high Nash-Kelvinator was fraction
ally higher while Hudson was also
active.
Earlier in the trading u. S. Steel
established a new high since 1881
at 971a and maintained most of
the more than a point gain to the
close. Crucible gained more than
2 points to a new high while Re
public and Bethlehem were fairly
! active. This reflected optimistic re-
ports for continuation of high steel
y production despite the recession in
demand from the automobile indus
try.

peared in rail equipment ISSUES. An

previous close and ChrySler slipped
a point from its high. :.

lage, where all the residents knew him fnd liked his boyish smile and democratic ways.
 He was suddenly called away by the unexpected death of his father April 2s, 1886. He returned to Lon~ don in April to see something of the English coronation preparations, but did not remain for the cere- mony as there is an unwritten tra- dition that ruling sovereigns must not be present at the coronation.
 Farouk owes his throne to his an- cestor, Mohammed Ali the Great, who was a regular. ruthless go- getter, starting from the humblest beginnings. Born in i769 in the Rumel!an town of Kavalla. now in Greek territory, Mohammed at first kept Q little shop. Then he joined the Turkish army and helped to suppress rebilloln in Crete. Later when in command of Albanian troops, he helped the British drive the French out of Egypt. He estab- lished his family as hereditary rul- CTS of Egypt when European coun- tries acted to end his rule of Syria.
 They were nominally suzerains of Turkey until Great Britain replaced Turkey in that situation. Full in- dependence was won by Egypt in treaty signed in London August 26, 1886. Egypt thus once more became an entirely sovereign state after many centuries.
