buying centered on rails and as
sorted industrials in today's stock
market while many leaders were
unable to attract worth while sup
port.
Timid demand apparently was
based on actual and prospective
earnings, cheering Russian war
news and a further revival of do
nestle political hopes. There were
handicaps, however, in little tax
liquidation to obtain April Is tax
requirements. Nervousness over
the approach of the second front
in Europe again served to stall
investment funds. Some accounts
were reinstated because of the be-
lief the recent technical reaction
may nave run it course.
Trends turned somewhat shaky
after a steady and rather active
start. Sinclair Oil, with a pleasing
income summary, came out in
blocks of 1000 to 10000 shares,
up a shade at 1914 peak. 1t

DRY GOODS

NEW YORK, April 1O|R-Small
lots of high priority rated goods
were sold in the cotton textile mar
ket today. The pressure continued
undated for variety of construc-
tons to fill heavy military and
lend lease inquiries.
In the wool goods market the
double impact government con-
tracts and difficulty in maintain
ing production because of labor
shortages brought increasing de-
lays in deliveries of goods to the
civilian market. In some instances
they are running more than three
months behind.
Traders in the rayon market
anticipated releases of goods for
May and June in the near future
and expected the quantity to be
restricted and about the same
level for the past month.

THE American Incentive System

George W. Langford, OF Ann Arbor,
founder and president OF the Econ

VINO described an incentive system
OF payment which his plant has
worked out and which has proved
successful in keeping his employees
satisfied and on the job during
these difficult times when labor is
shifting about from factory TO fac
tory as never before, Mr.. Langford
proceeded to apply the lesson Of
adequate incentive in industry to
the national situation.
AR Langford asserted that free.
dom OF enterprise and competitor
in industry made America what 1t
is today. and will double the pros
perity Of the country IL allowed to
continue. He reminded his audience
that industry is the keystone OF our
national life, and that adequate

Attacking what he called long
haired dreamers' and unscrupu-
lous labor leaders, the speaker as
serted that we need men i'm gov
eminent who are able to see the
national welfare above party or
partisan interests. Mr. Langford
spoke we'll OF local labor units
which served to promote under
standing and to solve personnel
problems, and asserted that basic
ally there is no opposition OF inter
est between management and la
Dor. He blamed the national lead
ers and reformers for setting up an
artificial conflict.
Concluding. Mr.. Lsngford said
that three things are needed to pro-
mote the national welfare %
stronger and more clear-visioned

Being Closed

Dormitories B and c at Willow
Lodge have been closed Indefinite
ly and the 1923 people formerly l.v--
ing in both buildings have been
transferred to other dormitories
on the project. IL was announced
today by II. V. Brentlinger, new

out the project. which in turn caus-
ed unnecessary government eI-
penditure for operation.

low Lodge has housing capacity
Of 200 people making the total
housing capacity for the Is dormi-
tories at the Lodge about 5000.
Closing the two dormitoriss will
