Ac- tive selling around the end of the fourth hour depressed many leading issues 1 to 2 points but pressure was lifted toward the close and losses) Ma: were partially recovered. The final ‘tone was heavy. Transfers approxi- mated 940,000 shares. Some brokerage quarters suggested that President Roosevelt’s recommen- dations for extension and revision of the NRA in which he stated “the fun- damental principles of the anti-trust Jaws should be more adequately ap- plied,” had prompted selling. Others thought that the reaction was largely technical and reflected disappoint- ment on the part of traders at the failure of the list to follow the ad- vance in a number of industrial spe- cialities. In these quarters the NRA recommendations were described as in keeping with expectations. Stocks received little in the way of guidance from other markets. Bonds were mixed, grains moderately reac- tionary, and other staples narrow. In May July duly J foreign exchanges gold currencies |M! dipped a little, then recovered.

GIRL SCOUT LEADER SPEAKS AT ROTARY Miss Aftreith Charges Parents With Responsibility for Youth's Attitude Miss Marie Aftreith, director of the girl scout work in the Hiawatha re- gion, in an address before the local Rotary club Wednesday charged serv- ice organizations and parents with the responsibility of protecting the nation’s youth from evil effects of the relief program. Expressing concern over effects of the present federal relief program on children, Miss Aftreith said it was the duty of every citizen to work to- ward providing a place for the youth in the modern world. A young per- son’s attitude toward honest, _self- sustaining employment will be badly demoralized unless we take steps to correct wrong impressions, she said. The girl scout worker reviewed the Proceedings of the National Youth Congress held last fall at which the younger generation was given an op- Portunity to express opinions on the modern-day problems. She was in- troduced by Mrs. E. A. Thorberg. commissioner of the local Girl Scout council. Dr. V. J. LaRose, program chairman, also introduced Miss Mary |Cashel, deputy commissioner. President John P. French extend- ed a welcome to C. A. Bonham, who has recently returned from California and again is affiliated with the club. Guests were Staale Hendrickson and FP. Urban Powers, Fargo; Frank E. Ployhar, Valley City and Miss Irma Logan, Bismarck. Class of 36 Largest In Bismarck History Bismarck high school will graduate the largest class of seniors in the his- tory of the school if all of the 120 candidates for diplomas complete the requirements for graduation before the school year closes in June. Last year there were 10¢ graduates. The freshman class greatly out- numbers the other classes with a total enrollment of 210. There are 145 sophomores and 118 juniors and three special students attending the high school, making # total enrollment of 596, according to figures from the principal's office. The enrollment has been well over 600 most of the school year. A large number of students always drop out for various reasons during the first semester but the second semester en- rollment rarely shows much fluctua- tion, W. H. Payne, principal, said.
