OFFSETS DECLINE
: York CITY asks:

New York City asks:
"Why Is IL better 10 own
common stocks than money,
when inHation exists"
Answer: Most corporations
make more money when prices
rise because of imitation and re-
duced purchasing power for
money her efore most stock
prices rise, and this may offset
the fan in the purchasing power
OF money. Each dollar is worth
Ie&Srhl+4- SSet-Fet- more dollars
If you put money in a bank or
high grade bonds, you have the
same money, but il buys less.
Brooklyn, y. y. asks:
isn't rent control unconstl-
tutionalo hire out six nice
rooms with all convenlences for
SIS. They cost me $50. The
loss 1 have to take out of my
wages. OPA Is all wrong. They
let coal prices go up, but not
rent"
Answer: Probably such a taxi
ing of your property without
process of law is a violation of
the Constitution. But the present
government does not care about
Individual freedom or rig h I S.
Roosevelt started il with his
calling the Constitution a horse
and-buggy" affair, and packing
the Supreme Court with radicals.
ADVISES ON STOCKS
York, Pa, asks:
years ago bought B. & o.
common stock. Do you think
IL will reach so? l would like
To get out with a whole skin"
Answer: l can only guess, but I
very much doubt that such rail-
way common stocks as b. & O.
will go much higher than they
have. The reason being that the
main aim is to make the bonds
(and preferred stocks, if any,
good. The railways have mostly
been over-capitalized. The better
way 10 handle such cases is first
TO find some stock which has a
much better chance to 60 up. and
then to shift your money into ii.

Details Opinion
On Bull Mart
Rx LEWIS HANEY

Professor ~ Economics. N,u Yot Univsnily
san Francisco asks:
What do you mean when at
one time you say Re will see a
market crash about February,
and at another time you say 10
buy stocks freely"
Answer: My general position Is
this: CD a long bull market lies
ahead with prices probably much
higher. (2) Much sharper reac-
tions will come, however, and, for
various reasons. one IS likely
about February (3) Traders
should buy during reactions when
prices are down. and sell on
rallies when prices are higher.
t4l Long-pull investors may
either la) hold straight through
the sharp reactions, or (b) may
sell the more speculative part of
their holdings when signs of a
sharp reaction appear, and buy
revised holdings when the reac-
ton ends.

The Waterbury Democrat., 1945-01-25

To the list of Waterbury murders as interestingly reviewed in last evenings Democrat by former police reporter of the DemOcrat-and might add a very efficient One-shOuld be added two slayings of more recent record. Perhaps they were not so wIlfully plotted as the killing of BrOnislaw Kulvinskas by Sophie Krichtman and "JOe" Mitchell, the NlkIfOr Nechesnek murder the Lockwood crime, but for "gOry" details of the aforementioned three could up to the two the Tower now proposes We recall the Rkeraitis Burton Street An ln- furiated husband cuts his SpOuses throat in very definite way He then slashed his own throat from ear to ear She died. He lived to die the gall0Ws at Wethersfield For hours after the murder, however, doctors declared that he would not survive the vicious way in which he slashed himself. On the eve of his execution months later there plenty of opposition to the hanging. It claimed that if the state in sisted him paying the supreme penalty he would be decapitated He hanged however, and the feat was accomplished without a stitch" in his neck being broken Later we recall the "part time' minister who went beserk in Ward Street residence and kifed his sepdaughter to death He then killed himself with the butcher knife he had carried under his coat when he went calling We can hear the late Medical Examiner A.

a record l20 dyaS Of racing, and with their packers eager to get in on what appeared to be the last wartime winter boom, elaborate night clubs lit up all over Miami and Miami Beach.
 Now there is nothing wrong with night spot. even one where the season is limited to no more than three months, that ivory balls and galloping dominoes won't cure. Craps, birdcage. rou- lette, chemin de fer, blackjack and faro in a side room make for more exciting night life. Delect- able viands, palatable wines and $5000-a- week entertainers immed- lately become nothing more than lures. Cost goes out the window. All but the suckers get well, as we say at the course, and they usually can afford to be ill.
 MILLIONS AT STAKE
 Play would run into the mil lions. A good share of the nations bookmakerS are here itching for action. The bulk of the estimated $l00000,000 horse and dog racing handle is still lying around, and an altogether different and even Sportier crowd goes for the cubes and wheels. Wow!
 Little wonder that there are fur tive glances in the direction of ex- policeman Sullivan, whom the ca sino czars consider bit of all right, by the way. "The people didn't elect me to make new laws" says Whis- ting Jimmy Sullivan. The inference Is that he is fully aware that gam bling other thna on horses, grey hounds and jai alai is against the law.

 But Lefty Clark and members of the Detroit Purple Gang are here. So is Charley Wall, once gambling boss of Hillsboro County on Florida's west coats.

wink, which the chances are will never come.
 Home talent finally took over pre-war Miami and Miami Beach gambling with Charley Wall at its head. Jake (Acie Deucie) Solomon and his partner, Charley Thomas, Paul Green and Eddie Padgett were other big shots. DON'T WANT CLAPTRAP
 Permanent residents of this tropical paradise and the news papers won't want gambling as an attraction any more than they would like to see Miami Beach in the boardwalk class. They vivid ly recall what happened when horses were booked and people broke their backs pulling slot ma chine levers at practically every drug store and lunch counter, and know their delightful domain can get along very nicely without all that claptrap.
 Whistling Jimmy, a smiling, cigar smoking Irishman of 38, little heavier than he was when he boxed as a middleweight, got his nickname through shrill and dis tinctive whistle with which he at- tracted attention at his traffic post. A native of Eau country 180 miles up the coast, Sullivan first came to Miami in 1925 as a worker in the building trades, married in 1882 and is the father of girls aged II and g. He was on the police force for more than 10 years.
 Those in the know here say that the instant a gambling atmosphere becomes obvious at Miami and Mi- ami Beach, Sheriff Jimmy Sullivan is 8 dead duck So anybody trying to get away with it is very likely to get a punch on the nose.
 NEXT: Palm Beach comes back with The Breakers.
