Harvard Retains Trophy.


Scoring its fourth traditional team
conquest in the Yuletide tourney of
the Harvard, Yale, Princeton and
Dartmouth College Chess League,
the wearers of the Crimson merely
had to dust of the beautiful Belden-
Stephens Trophy and place it back

for Alma Mater were Kenneth
White, 1899, of Plainfield, N. j.;
John j. Fernsler, 1910, of Flushing.
N. Y; Leonard K. Nash, 1899, of
Manhattan, and Clarence w. Hew-
lett. 1912, of Schenectady.
In a total of IL available points,
Harvard tailed 9R-2la; Yale, Us:
Princeton, ST, and Dartmouth en-
joyed the lowest berth with the
minor rating, 212-912.

l
NEW YORK, Jan 18.-Traders de-
serted the stock market in large
numbers today, leaving the list be-
Gained after an early upturn.
Dealings shrank to the smallest
in some time as the advance played
out and scattered selling shaved the
gains. Minor ups and downs were
recorded for most shares near the
fourth hour.
Speculation seemed to be biding
time in most markets. Many bonds
inched ahead but the market gens
orally was quiet. Leading COM
modities stayed close to their recent
paths.
Early gains running to more than
a point were reduced or eliminated
entirely for United States Steel,
Douglas. Sears Roebuck, Union Car
bide, General Motors. Santa Fe,
United State Rubber, International
Harvester and United Aircraft.
Absence of a clear-cut trend was
blamed in part for the reluctance
to trade.
Copper stocks drew some nibblSs
in the early buying on the argu-
ment producers would improve their
selling position as result of the
curtailment move started by Ana
conda. Anaconda's action in closing
down a mine in the Butte district
put mining circles on the alert for
similar curtailment by other do
mestic producers.
The recently active armament
stocks also were neglected pending
indications how far Congress would
go IN following the administration
defense proposals.

| Toronto Banker
IFeors Trend
LIN Spending
BY the Associated Press.


TORONTO, Jan. 18-John r.
Lamb, president of the Bank of
Toronto, told shareholders at the
annual meeting today that "aban-
donment of past precepts in public
finance" might ultimately bring
about large-scale devaluation of
debts, conscription of productive re-
sources. or imitation of prices.
Surveying world political and eco
nomic trends. the bank had said
that in Great Britain it was mainly
spending for armament beyond the
tax-paying ability of that nation
and therefore financed in part by
loans; in the United States the en-
phasis was on social services but
armament was now being added.
and in Canada large deficits had
appeared in recent years and tax re-
sources had been utilized about to
the limit.
The situation" Mr.. Lamb said,
constituted bar to that confidence
and long-term planning which has
been the basis Of growth in the past
and the net result was not satisfac-
tory to either the worker or the in
vestor." He emphasized the dis
turbing effect succeeding European
crises are having on business and
added: While the current trend
is favorable, one could wish for a
greater degree of assurance con-
corning the long-term outlook"
