NEW YORK, Oct 28.-The bond
market outdid stocks today in MAIN
tanning gains registered following an
nouncement of more liberal margin
terms from Washington.
In the last hour plus signs were in
the majority, with the advantage over
the previous close ranging to or
more points for number of active
issues. The Federal loan list, however,
was bit ragged.
In the corporate group good ad-
vances were shown by convertibles,
such as American Typefounders and
Studebaker 6s. Some rails were well
ahead near the finish, including South
ern Railway As and Missouri, Kansas,
Texas SIS. However, the rail group as
q whole yielded gains more easily than
other sections.
The foreign list was narrow and
rather quiet, although Milan City 6l2S
were strong point in the Italian list.
U. S. Government loans ranged from
gains of 4-32s of point to losses of
as much.

years ago Rudolph applied for a

have added the extra fraction of
an inch and got the job. Lately
he applied for a permanent posi-
ton with the fire department, but
was rejected because he lacked the
quarter of an inch.
