- MARKET LEADERS TAKE NEW DIVE: ARMS ISSUES DOWN : Stocks Tumble 1 to More Than 5 Points; Tax Revision Hopes Lessen New York, Dec. 27—()—With steels, aircrafts and other recently strong armament stocks developing weakness, industrial leaders tumbled 1 to more than 5 points in Monday’s markets. Warnings from Washington author- ities that falling government revenues due to the recession threatened bal- ancing of the budget tended to chill hopes in the financial district for tax revision in the near future. Despite opinions steel production is seeing its worst, this week's mill oper- ations were officially estimated off 43 points at 19.2 per cent of capacity, a new low since Sept. 4, 1934. It was the 15th consecutive week's decline. Transfers shares, Amicable settlement of the Panay bombing crisis resulted in an upward jump in Japanese government bonds. Corporation loans were lower. U. 8. government securities pushed higher. Grain futures rallied at Chicago, ‘ut other commodities were uneven. Wheat was up % to % cent a bushel and corn advanced 1 to 2% cents. Gold mining stocks were among the exceptions to the slide. Dome made a! new year’s top. Livestock 80. ST. PAUL South 8t. Paul, Dec. 27.—(AP—U. S D.

STORIES IN STAMPS EEE 'UGE, shaggy, lumbering, buffa- H loes were roaming over at least one-third of the American conti- nent when the first white man came. Cortez reported seeing one at Montezuma. Later they were sighted in what.is now the Dis- trict.of Columbia and in western Minois. The greatest herds, however, thundered over the western plains. So numerous were they that many Indian tribes believed that the buffalo issued from the earth con- tinuously in one inexhaustible stream, To the Indians the buffalo meant food, raiment and shelter. The Indians slaughtered buffalo with bow and arrow. Riding be= side the terror-stricken animal, they would discharge their arrows at a range of less than 10 feet. If the arrow did nut kill instantly the attacker then would ride closer, grasp the protruding death-shaft and drive it into the vitals of the animal, This was the practice for cen- turies, and then came the pioneers, the opening of the plains, the rail- road. Buffato slaughter went wholesale, Entire herds were killed, In 1873 the Santa Fe Railroad car- ried 25,000 buffalo robes out of Kansas. It was estimated 2,000,000 head a year were shot. So, before 1900, the kings of the range were almost gone. An Indian hunting buffalo 1s portrayed on a stamp of the U. S. Trans-Mississippi issue of 1898. aCopyright, 1937, NEA Service, Inc.)
