The Durant news. (Durant, Miss.) 1882-1985, 1940-02-01

Apparently the most prominent is
sue now with us is the Free Text
Book pian-one that we all are III
terested in n way or the other.
and which way, Brother or Sister
is a ticklish step. Some want it and
others don't, and what 1 want to
know is why in the Heck people
cant get together on some questions
sometimes. 1 guess it simply a
be done, that's all.
The Durant news. (Durant, Miss.) 1882-1985, 1940-02-01

I have discovered two things at
least since l began my duties as a
Repi sentative, one is that you can
not stay on the fence on some ques-
tons n the other is that after
you study a question and try t. de-
eide which is The rignt thing to
do, you are often CONFRONTED win
tnis thought, it is awful if you do
and worse if you don't. Policies is
something like being married, there
are some questions you had rather
not answer.
AT last all the committees have
been appointed, each member knows
his or her status, and every one is
ready to get down to work. There
are several committees that hereto
fore have been inactive mat at this
session should be prominent commit
tees. One in particular is the COM
nittee ON the conservation of natu-
raj resources. The oil activity VII,
CON- undo- this committee.
Al h last minute, just before J
Gle, l want % announce the passage
Of the Free Text Book Bill by the
House.
The Durant news. (Durant, Miss.) 1882-1985, 1940-02-01

This is the first legislative body
that 1 have had the opportunity ano
privilege to know at close ange, but
l have formed the opinion about one
thing, namely that it is like most
other organizations we know in that
we have some members who are I'm
douotediy very able and we have
some who apparently are not SO hot,
to be tor almost nothing and on the
other hand at other times they seem
to be for almost everything. 1t some
times makes you wonder why.

Ely tHS ASSOCldtfu fTeSS.
NEW YORK, June 29.-The bond
market underwent only mi,lor
change in today's brief session, with
the foreign dollar department post
ing the best gains.
Trading was light in all sections,
indicating, brokers said, transac-
tions were mostly of an evening-up
nature for the weekend recess, es-
pecially by those who thought i'm
portant developments affecting
financial trends might crop up in
Europe before Monday.
Total sales of 81, $50 900, par value,
were the smallest for Saturday
since last August u and compared
with 81 ,893,0 900 a week ago.
Foreign issues closing up / to 3
points included Frankfort 61as at
1917, Denmark AIS at 26%, Canada
4s at n, Australia AIS at 1914 and
Hungary AVS at 81.
Domestic loans ending up shade
included Western Union IS at So,
Montana Power 3%s at 101, Shell
Union 21as at 96A and Baltimore
SS Ohio 41as at IL.
Unchanged to lower were, among
others, International Paper SIS, Port
land General Electric 4l2s, National
Dairy 33ls, Southern Pacific AIS
and Bethlehem Steel 312s.
United States Governments were
extremely quiet, but the few issues
that did change hands were sub

Chongesin Week

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, June 29.-War ma
terials sagged in cash markets this
week in the wake of the Franco
German truce and rumors limiting
peace otertures in the remaining
theater of war.
Key industrial staples and food
stuffs in international trade shared
in the decline.
Steel scrap dipped after long
elmo upward. Consumers tempered
their needs due to uncertainty re-
garding French war orders for
steel although it was learned Britain
had agreed to take over most of the
contracts.
Rubber Prices Drop.
Rubber suffered one of the severest
falls. Bending the market were
news an Anglo-American deal for
United States purchase of 100000
tons of rubber for reserve stocks
had been arranged and new uncer-
tainties created by the japanese
attitude toward French Indo-C China.
Technical considerations depressed
cotton although the South said
available marketable supplies were
becoming increasingly scarce.
Grains and four-with the big
exception Of wheat-moved down
uniformly
Other staples marked down
notch included tin, silk, wool tops,
cocoa, lumber, coal and linseed oil.
Lard and livestock advanced In
unison. Important news in these
markets was the Government report
of a material drop in the 1910 pig
crop.
Hides and Butter Up.
The Associated Press index of 3S
wholesale staples, based on 1926 as
100, advanced to 7186 from 71.84 in
the preceding week despite the pre-
ponderance of price declines. Ths
measure is heavily weighted in favor
of the staples which advanced.

new orders since March, unaccom-
panied by a proportionate rise in
either production or shipments, in
dicated considerable advance in
the backlog of manufacturers un-
