BY LESLIE GOULD

NEW YORK, Sept. 81 G.N.S0,
The stock market today enjoyed
its first rally in four sessions, as
yesterdays late recovery from a
new tumble into low ground for

leaders up a point or more.
Chrysler was an individual star,
opening 314 points higher, losing
all but point of this. then re-
covering to above 81 for a net
gain of better than 2 points. Gen
eral Motors advanced half as
much.
In the copper section Anaconda,
American Smelling, Kenecott and
Phelps-Dodge each moved up a
point Or more. Similar gains were
scored in the rails by Atchison,
N. Y. Central, Baltimore & Ohio

LONDON, Sept. 81 0.N.SO.
Wall Streets late recovery yester-
day aided in putting a steadier
tendency in the London Stock
Market today, coupled with some
bear covering and cessation of
forced liquidation.
International issues settled at
parity levels after fluctuating
throughout the day. United States
Steel sold at SO dollars, Brazilian
Traction was quoted at 20 GIG
dollars, and International Nickel
steadied at So 1882 dollars. Oils
showed an improving tendency,
rubber issues were unchanged,
British funds were quietly steady,
Japanese and Chinese bonds

AUTO PRICES
FORCED HIGHER

DETROIT, Sept. 81 GN.S0.-A
legendary boast of the automobile
industry today may have to be
pigeon-holed.
For years, motor-car manufac-
turers had pointed with pride to
the fact that mass production
and highly competitive conditions
within the industry had hammered
down prices of automobiles.
However, this year, automobile
makers are being caught in a cross
fire of rising costs for both labor
and materials, and automobile
prices are going up.
This summer, most manufac-
turerS announced price increases,
ranging from SIS to 500 a unit.
However, the boosts covered only q
part of the rising costs to manu-
facturers, and price tags on the
1888 models to be introduced at
the New York automobile show
may show still further increases.

it a rare good joke. There was

They were taken somewhat
aback when the youth entered a
side door of the Watson garage
and backed the car through the
double doors with a splintering OF
wood and glass.
But they were positively as
founded when he drove across the
lawn, stuck his tongue out as he
turned into the street, and sped
away.
BY that time they realized it

Must be Richard Watson,

were informed.
IN THE SPOTLIGHT
Someone turned an automobile
spotlight on the youth and ca
rolled, "Yoo-hoo Richard" he
didn't turn around; just waved in
friendly greeting and kept on
climbing.
But the windows above were
locked, so he slid back to the
ground still in the spotlight. He
trotted around in back and soon
returned with a ladder, which he
threw against the side Of the
house. Again in the spotlight he
climbed to the second floor.
Mrs. Watson met him there. But
the window was closed as she
screamed, "get down, get out of

FARMERS Will GET
Maximum BENEFIT
Largest Amount Possible Under
AAA Program Will Be Paid
on 1897 Plan

Warrington, Oct. l9.-(F>-Maxi-
mum benefits will be paid to farmers
under tho 1887 agricultural conserva.
ton program, the Agricultural Ad-
justment administration announced
Monday.
Because not as many farmers COM
piled with the program as had been
anticipated and because administra-
tive expenses were not as large as ex-
pected, farmers who complied will re-
ceive the maximum amount possible
under the $500, 700, 900 program, the
AAA said.
The AAA said payments to be made
for this year correspond with those
made in three regions last year. In
1895 rates Of payment to farmers were
increased Z per cent over the first es-
Inmates in the north central and
western regions and 5 per cent In the
east central region. No increase was
made last year In the southern and
northeastern regions.
Farm administration representa-
tives said they had anticipated about
65 per cent Of all farmers would take
part. Actual compliance was about Is
per cent, the said.

No lndisputabls Evidence Al

Warrington, Oct. lo.-(R,-Dr. Alea
Hrdlicka said Tuesday that recent
widely acclaimed discoveries Of "miss-
Ing links" In the story Of prehistoric
America actually have added little
significant information to the history
OF man on this continent.
The 68-year-old anthropologist for
the Smithsonian institution discussed
no finds specifically. He expressed
the general opinion, however, that
purported evidence Of q race Of men
dating back 10000 years Or moro Is
not convincing evidence.
Our Amrican studies have shown
three things about man." Dr.. Hrdlicka
said. First, that al the (native) peo-
pie in America without exception be-
long to one and the same basic race,
the Indian and Eskimo. Second, that

readily assume that the Indians have

British Fear Influence Of Grand
Mufti Even From His
Hiding Place

New York, Oct. l9.-(R- Hiding In
disguise among the labyrinthian
mysteries Of the bazaars Of old Da-
nascus. or maybe some other Syrian
city. Is powerful parsonage who
holds loosely in his hands the seeds
Of further bloody discord for the
Holy Land.
He is the grand multi Of Jerusalem,
q great figure Of Mahammedanism
who Is deeply venerated by all fol-
lowers Of Islam.
The Shiek Al Islam, as he Is called
effaced his identity In the voluminoua
head-dress and robes Of q Bedouin OF
the desert and fled the Jurisdiction Of
the British mandate over Palestine.
That was after Britain had de-
ported other Arab leaders for partic!-
eating in the reign Of terror which
has surrounded the establishment Of
the Jewish national home.
The grand multi had been con-
cealed In the holy grounds Of the
Mosque Of Omar in Jerusalem. sur
rounded by his lifeguards.
As soon as the British learned he
had slipped away to Syria they
clamped the lid on all Moslem activi-
ties In Palestine. They feared his vast
influence on his people even from
that distance.
Always the British must bear In
mind that the mixture Of believers
ir Mohammedanism and unbelievers
not only is highly inflammable but
might give rise to that terror known
as q holy war, or jihad.
One disquieting aspect Of the sit
uation Is that the Arabs In the ltal-
ion territory Of Lbya have informed
Mussolini that they stand with their
fellow Moslems In Palestine against
British policy there.

by the Smithsonian institution last
week when 1t reported finding the

Great Salt Lake, Utah. It was esti-
mated the cave was first occupied
10000 to 10000 years ago.
Hrdlicka said human bone finds
often were attributed to ancient men
because they were found in association
with the bones Of animals now ex-

identified such bones as the remains
Of Indians who lived In comparatively

In Large Refinery
Mr.. Mills Is In the employ Of the
Standard Oil Company Of New Jersey
In Aruba he has been one Of the
bumpers In charge Of . refinery thai
converts 100000 barrels Of crude oil
per day into refined products. He haa
lived there since 1870.
The oil comes from Lake Maracaibc
in Venezuela, $50 miles southwest
Comes from Lake Maracaibo" Is cor
rect for the well derricks stand on
pilings in the lake itself. In fact there
are three large oil fields In the lake,
Mills will tell you.
From the lake 1t Is carried by tanker
down the lake to the Caribbean sea
and thence 100 miles across open water
to the island. It Is refined In Aruba
and not Venezuela because business
conditions are more stable In the pos
session Of Queen Welhelmina. Once
refined the majority Of the petroleum
products are sold In Europe although
some fuel oil Is transported In bond to
New York where 1t Is burned In trans
atlantic liners furnaces.
n Tankers In Fleet
There are a flat-bottomed tankers
In the Maracaibo fleet. The ships do
not draw more than IL feet Of water
because Of the shailowness Of the en-
trance from the Caribbean to the lake.
The tankers have . capacity Of from
10000 to $4,000 barrels of oil.
An average Of $1,000 barrels Of re-
fined petroleum are poured into trans
atlantic tankers daily, Mills says. From
II to u ships q day are moored to the
piers there.
It was from Arlba that the ill-fated
8. 8. Mcknight sailed for its rem
devious with Davey Jones In the Med
iteTanean. The Mcknight was the
Standard tanker sunk without warn
ing by . mystery submarine in the
Mediterranean some three months
ago.
While Mills refused to be directly
quoted on what he thought the out
look for world peace was, his attitude
revealed pessimism.

Guest Of Pattersons Sketches

Curacao was interesting to Mills
the first time he visited there, because
1t Is the burial place Of Peter Stuyve-
SAINTS leg. II you remember your his
tory you will recall that the founder
Of New York lost his leg In battle be-
fore he was ordered to 60 from Cura-
Gao to establish the colony Of New
Amsterdam, what Is now New York
City.
Aruba Is not In the West indies hur-
ricane belt, Mills declared. Records
do not show that any Of the dread
storms ever has swept the island. The
destructive Florida hurricane Of q few
years ago was reported to have come
within IL miles Of Aruba.
Calls Climate Ideal
Mills describes the climate as ideal.
Temperatures range from 70 at night
to 90 In the day In the shade. He
stated that in the sun Thermometers
have registered Is high Is 1856. One
alleviating factor are the trade winds
which blow more steadily there than
the nor'westers Of North Dakota. So
consistently regular are these winds
from the east that isolated trees In
wind-swept spots all lean to the west.
The climate Is Z healthy one. There
Is no typhoid, smallpox or tubercu-
losis. The trade winds keep the air
free Of mosquitoes. Outbreaks Of the
disease are practically unknown and
confined almost exclusively to the ma
tive population.
One problem Is pure drinking wa
ter. Because 1t must be imported
from the United States, water COM
mands premium and beer and rum
are used extensively. but seldom to ex-
cess. Natives gather rainwater dur
ing the rainy seasons and store 1t In
cisterns beneath their huts. They ap-
pear to drink it without harm.
America Transplanted
Mills calls Aruba q "transplanted
American town." Arubans have every
thing that the average American town
has-moyies, golf courses, tennis
courts, clubs ct cetera. One thing
Mills misses was hunting. But the
Americans have taken care Of that.
They now are propagating pteasants,
hope to have . hunting season ere
long.
Because he had worked ~ years
without Z vacation, Mills was allowed
four months leave Of absence. He
arrived in New York on Sept. II to at
tend the national convention Of the

Aruba? Never Heard Of It!
Well, Let's Get Acquainted

unable to keep up with the demand
for crude oil, that Italy and Great
Britain are storing millions Of barrels
It was ct Aruba, Mills declared, that
worlds record for daily production
was made last March when 307, ,00o
barrels were refined In one day.
Produced by the refinery are gaso.
line, kerosene, diesel oil, fuel oil and
lubricating oil sufficient for the
Islands needs.
Aruba Is IN island 10 miles long and
about 5 miles wide. It Is primarily q
gigantic coral atoll topping what was
once the peak Of granite range Of
mountains now . string Of islands.
Before the Standard Oil company
established refinery there 1t was q
self-sufficient community Of 5000
souls who made q meager but satisfy
ing living raising maize and catching
fish. A few extra dollars were put
into circulation annually by the sale
Of bitter aloes.
Island Il Prosperous
But now things are different, Mills
says. The community Is prosperous,
has been prosperous all through these
last eight years the United States has
known as the depression.
Now there are $4,000 persons on the
island. There are approximately 800
American men, 400 American women
and 800 children. There are about
1000 Europeans and 5000 natives. The
smallest percentage Of the population
are Dutch. About 1000 persons are
on the payroll Of the Standard COM
pany.
There are no labor troubles on the
island, and there are no labor organt-
cations. Employees Of the Standard
company have their own employee
committee which. Mills says, has al
ways had amicable relations with their
employer. Differences Of opinion
have been ironed out without rancor.
Working hours average q hours =
week for the bulk Of the employees.
Technicians can work longer hours
but do not get extra pay. Instead
they are credited with extra vacation
periods.
On Contract Basis
Employees are on . contract basis
with the company. They come there
to work minimum Of 10 months af-
ter which they are entitled to one
