adds to the July-August toll. and snow and

carnage.

is to come home from work at in the evening
tired. unhappy and wanting nothing more
than good rest A slight remark by your
spouse like, why do you always wear that
ugly tie?" and you're off on one of those
roaring arguments.
1t isn't unusual, because over half our
divorces. according to psychologists, stem
from quarrels in the late afternoon. Reason;
the peak fatigue hours are between 5
and pm. When you re physically tired,
you're tired of it all.
And here's scene that might happen in
the Office of any of our major insurance COM
panies. The president addresses meeting OF
the board: Gentlemen from now on We will
insure against fires only from the hours OF
ten in the evening to three in the after
noon. For the other hours, we will charge
triple rates."
Silly? If the laws permitted, this could
happen. The peak hours for fires are from to
in the afternoon. and from to at night.
Reason for the majority of fires starting at
these particular hours is that the human BRAIN
starts to tire from to 4 in the afternoon.
Result is relaxation of alertness by watch
men and other workers in the late afternoon
and evening hours.

Tight Money Boosts

To Another High
By DonoId B. HodIey

A temporary tight money" sit.
uation was blamed by Treasury
officials as the rate paid for short
term bills edged to another new
high since 1888 yesterday.
The Treasury paid an average
rate Of l.725 per cent on $780,
$4,000 of 91-day bills offered fol-
cash and in exchange for a like
amount of bills that mature De-
cember 20. The 1.725 per cent
rate compared with IL per cent
paid on an offering a week earlier
also the highest since 1898.
Bills are sold at a discount and
redeemed in full at the face value
on maturity. without interest
The lower the bid. the higher the
real interest rate.
Accepted bids yesterday ranged
from a high Of 99600. equivalent
to an interest rate of 1882 per
cent. to a low of 99.560, or 1.741
per cent. The average was 99.564,
or 1.725 per cent.
Application for yesterdays is

behind demand of recent weeks.
The new issue is dated December
20 and will mature March 20,
1852.
Treasury officials predicted that
the tight money" situation would
ease shortly. A major factor,
they said, is the fact that corpora
tions have been using their funds
to meet a December IS income
tax payment.

NEW YORK. Dec. 18.-There
was a good deal of selective buy

but prices generally were mixed
and changes were small.
The slow activity and mixture
of gains and losses ran pretty well

little more strength, as a group,
than other issues.
Traders were cautious in the
face of the CIO steelworkers de-
cision to strike unless they get a
l5-cent hourly pay raise and other
concessions. The decision was
made even in the face of Govern
ment Intervention.
Meanwhile, talks with the steel
makers resumed and the industry
operated at the highest rate in
history-l04.9 per cent of its rated
capacity.
The bright spots in the mar
ket were American Cyanamid and
Dow Chemical. which moved
ahead a point or more each at
times.
Standard Oil New Jersey was
a favorlte and it advanced a small
traction to new high for the
year
Amerada Petroleum was one OF
the weaker spots. A block of 6 SOC
shares traded at "a lower and later
trading in the issue brought the
loss to ga at one time.
United States Steel, Bethlehem
and Youngstown were down frac-
tons each. General Motors and
Chrysler were ahead a bit ano
Packard was down a small frac-
ton.
