PACE BOND MART
Trading Proves Smallest
Since 1917 With Prices
Badly Mixed

NEW YORK, May 5 Pt -
The bond market shook off its
weekend lethargy today, activity
in railroad liens and in foreign is,
sues picking up as the session
progressed. Closing prices were
mixed.
Sales totaled So, 28O, 900, COM

smallest turnover since 1917.
Plus signs were numerous at
the close, although there was a
stable minus column.
Traders were active in both
Peruvian first IS and second IS,
the former closing down IA and
the latter up "A, and both at II IA.
Antioquia Is of AS B scored an
8-point gain to close at A. Den
mark S lbs were up a point and
Australian 3 3-8s gained 3-8.
Baltimore & Ohio issues attract
ed attention, as Robert R. Young.
chairman of the Allegheny Corp,
testified in the Senate banking
committees investigation into its
reorganization and its $50, 900, 900
RFC loan. Young called the ~eor-
ganization in 1915 "either dishon-
est or incompetent"
r & o Active
B & o issues closed ga up to IA
off, most active being the CONVEX
tibles of so, closing at Al "a, down
IA.
Missouri Pacific IS of 81 closed
l IA up, but the largest volume
was in the general IS of rs, down
70.
American Tel. & Tel. issues
were unchanged to IL off, as the
strike picture remained unsettled.
Gaining fractionally to more
than a point were: Central Rail
road of New Jersey SIS, Rock Is
land refunding As, Denver and
Rio Grande Western income 4 lbs,
Hudson & Manhattan income SIS.
Lehigh Valley IS, Pennsylvania
3 las of so, and Western Pacific
4 1-2s.
Third Avenue adjusted SIS lost 2
points to close at Sc, and Frisco as
and New York Central 4 LIS were
each off 1-8.
U. S. Treasury issues were
steady in quiet over-tne-counter
dealings. Oft 1872 We're the 2 1-2f
of 1956-7O.

GIRL SCOUT CAMP
OUTLOOK IS GOOD

Due to the generosity and CO.
operation of several local persons
who own land at Greenville Sound,
the annual Girl Scout Day camp
promises to be better than ever,
according to Mrs. Helen Jones,
scout executive.
For the first time swimming in
structions and other water activi-
ties will be included in the pro-
gram for the day camp, scheduled
to be held June 1927 at Green
vile Sound. This was made pos
sible by w. Wendt offering h i S
swimming facilities for the use of
the scouts.
The main camp site is to be
set up on land owned by M r S.
Thomas H. Wright and Mrs. j.
Hunter Wood, and the center of
the activity will be here.
L. C. French and George A.
Carey own adjoining land, and
they have granted the use OF their
property for adventure hikes and
nature studies.
