Brisk buy- ing by commission houses was the rule. Opening quotations. which varied from the same as yesterday's finish to a rise of 2% cents with May $1.62 to $1.63 and July $1.44 to $1.44% were followed by a rapid series of fluctuations that carried May up to $1.65%. Subsequently trade lagged and prices tended to sag. Speculative selling was especially curtailed, a result generally associated with or- ders from Washington for a sweep- ing investigation of recent violent price changes. The close was irreg- ular, one cent net decline to 2% cents advance, May $1.63! to $1.64 and July $1.42% to $1.42%, ST. PAUL LIVESTOCK- South St. Paul, Mar. 19—Cattle receipts 2,600.

The most marked progress’ was made in this form of city planning during 1924, when 62 municipalitie adopted the system, fitting the zones to the particular requirements of their ‘localities. “In adopting zoning ordinances,” the department's . statement said, “these cities, towns and villages have sought to protect home owners, and other land owners, in the reasonable use of their property, Zoning seeks so to regulate the use to which build- ings’may be put, the area of the lot which they may cover, and their height in different sections of the city, that the land in each district may be used for the purposes to which it is best suited. “New Jersey still leads in the num- Ber of zoned municipalities, having 72; New York has 66; California, 38; Illinois, 36; Massachusetts, 24; Ohio, 21; Wisconsin, 14; Michigan, 9; Indiana, 5; Kansas, Missouri, Petin- sylvania, Rhode Island and Virginia, 4 each; Florida, Minnesota, Oklahoma and Washington, 2 each; and Ala- bama, Arkansas, Colorado, Connecti- cut, Delaware, District of Columbia, Georgia, Iowa, ‘Maryland, Nebraska, Nevada, North Carolina, North Dako- ta, Oregon, South Carolina, Tennes- see and Utah, one each. “An increased interest is . being shown by tho people of the United States in the enactment of zoning legislation to control the use, height and area of buildings in various dis- tricts in their communities, and in consequence zoning laws have been enacted or are being considered by nearly every state in the Union. Fierce 1 Twister Hits Illinois And Indiana Cities (Continued from page one) over nd and devastated block after block. An Associated Press correspondent made a tour of the city at three o'clock this morning and counted 85 wrecked automobiles all over the city. Fires everywhere still glowed and flared with increasing fury and streets were filled with homeless People. Food is scarce in the town. What) restaurants are not wrecked are try- ing to obtain food from Carbondale. Desoto was razed with the excep- tion of a dozen houses, according to B. N. Krysher, member of the Na- | tional Guard troop of Carbondale. Smoke still poured from the de- bri of Murphysboro’s smouldering while its citizens searched the s for other dead. Rescue work, greatly ‘hampered by the fire and it was said that many of the in- jured were cremated in the blazing debris. Dynamite was used here late lost night to stop the ravages of the blazing element, The west end of the city was completely destroyed, eith- er by wind or flames, and only one building was left standing in Hurst. Parish, Ill, reports said, was vir- tually obliterated with a loss of life estimated at 80. A score of other towns, including Duquoin, Thompson- ville, Logan, and Dubois, suffered severely. One of the most pathetic reports came from Desoto where the school house was destroyed with heavy loss of life. The twister carried away the top story of the school and the lower walls crumbled burying 250 children and teachers, few of whom escaped death or injury. Witnesses of the catastrophe said that the bodies of the child victims were piled on mattresses and blan- kets on the playground with few to claim them, most of the adult po- pulation having been taken to hospi- tals. Fire completed destruction of the school house and it was pro- bable that many of the bodies may not ‘be identified. A school building also was destroy- ed at West Frankfort but the loss of life has not been ascertained. This mining town-of 12,000 suffered heavy loss of life and property with about one third of its residential and bus- iness district demolished. It also saw the destruction of the Orient Mine, second largest in the world. Carbondale, Iinois, which escaped damage, was the rallying point of rescue forces in the southern part of the state. Its armory and hospitals were filled with dead and injured, transported there from towns in the storm’s pathway. PICTURE OF DESOLATION West Frankfort, Ill., Mar. 19.—The bodies of 85 men, women andechil- dren already had been taken from the ruins of buildings wrecked here hundred and fifty injured, many of whom are expected to die, are in emergency hospitals, while scores of others have been taken to private homes, Dawn today in West Frankfort presented a picture of desolation that rivaled the war stricken por- tions of France during the most hectic days of the struggle. As far as the eyes could see the landscape was a huge irregular mass of twist- ed debris. It was extremely difficult in many instances at first to determine ac- curately the details of the picture. Here a whole house had been moved completely from its foundation; at. another place a side had been ripped line of rescue workers probing the debris for bodies were visible. Here and there can be distinctly heard the pitiful cries of the injured, still pinned beneath the wreckage. Some of these were extricated just tefore breathing their last, while others died as they were hastened to emer- gency hospitals or other homes. One of the most pitiable sights that greeted the rescue workers w: that of a mother lying terribly man- gled while an infant crying lustily crawled about her inert form. At another home the body of a woman was found on the porch, a deep gash in her head. She appar- ently had met her fate while en- deavoring to flee from the fury of the storm. In one instance a miner still in his pit clothes and carrying the limp form of a five year old child, walked dejectedly in the path of res- cue ,workers to a pile of wreckage, that until yesterday constituted his home. In the debris were found his wife and another son, both terribly injured. The morgue was filled to over- flowing with bodies of the unfor- tunates, on one side of the structure the bodies of 18 babies lie in one group. Practically every delivery truck in the city was converted into ambul- ances while scores of private ma- chines were pressed into service. Business houses generally were clos- ed and all joined in the work of res- cue. One hundred special patrol men, sworn in immediately after the storm by, Chief of Police Norman, p: ed the stricken district and assi in the work of rescue wherever pos- sible. , THOUSANDS INJURED Carbondale, Il, March 19.—Up- wards of 1,000 persons are dead and probably 3,000 injured with hundreds of others homeless within a radius of 25 miles of this city as a result of yesterday's tornado, according to reports filtering in here this morn- ing, ‘Persons reaching here from stricken and devastated towns de- clared that Murphysboro, with a po- pulation of 13,000, report between 250 and 300 dead, upward of 7,000 in- jured, 1,000 to 1,200 homes wrecked homeless. with which the storm ed.

HIGH COST OF COALINJURES STREL TRADE Leeds, England, March 19.—Brit- ish steel manufacturers have found difficulty in selling steel in their rritory, India, because they n outbid by the Germans and ns, it was announced here by amuel, jtarliaméntary secre- tary to the Department for Overseas Trade, addressing the Leeds Cham- ber of Commerce, The situation which brought this about, said Mr. Samuel, was the high price of coal. The price of steel, which was largely dependent on the price of coal, was so high today that it paid to import steel from abroad, Two or three shillings per ton off the price of coal, he suggested, would make all the difference to the pros- perity of British trade, and the exist- ing high price of coal was doing harm which extended much farther than to the 100,000 men who-were out of work in the coal fields. Mr. Samuel, however, was quite op- ic as to the future for British trade generally, With the exception STOMACH “QUEER” GAS, INDIGESTION Chew a few Pleasant Tablets, Instant Stomach Relief!
