“ MONDAY, JUNE 9, 1924. Oil t by a clal writers and ad is “busi- ness man's investments.” Generally this phase is applied to sécurities a certain degree of risk. ‘The theory seems to be that a bus!- ness man Is able because of his pre- ‘sumably greater resources and of ht knowledge of affairs to take greatter chances than one who is entirely dependent for a living upon the income from his investments and who {s not in touch with chang: ing conditions in the business world. ) Such a business man by diversifying ils holdings is able substantially to increase the average return. It is taken for granted that the busi- ness man invester will be able to _ reconize the developement of ad verse conditions in the industries re- presented by his securities and will dispose of the same at a loss if necessary. Doubtless there are such business men but.my experience has been that the average business man is Uttle beeter qualified to protect hi: interests in this way than in the veriest tyro in financial affairs. The trouble is that too often the business Automobiles DETROIT, JUNE 7.—The extent of the recent cut in auto production is shown by figures issued by Gen- eral Motors showing that sales in May were 47,000 compared with 78,500 in May 1923 and 46,776 in May 1922.

Mayflower peaches have practically all been shipped more than 100 cars of this early variety bringing pric ing from $2.50 to $5 a crat will be a fortnight before the next variety ripens. lour SEATTLE, JUNE 7.—Following| the stiffening of wheat quotations in the northwest, best family patent Finance man’s speculation and the rule: for successful speculation, admitting that there is such a thing as euc- cessful speculation, are direct con- speculation, the willingness and the anil, to take losses, small losses before they become large ones. The invester who is lured into taking the so-called business invest: ment is seldom temperamentally fit- to practice this rule. He holds his “business man's investment” long after it has become a speculation and then sells out at a heavy loss just when the real speculator is ready to buy. The theory fatls in another respcet. The successful business man must of necessity de- vote most of his time to his own business. He cannot afford to oc- fessional men. The moral {s that un- less you are exceptiontily qualified yourself or can rely implicitly upon someone else it is better to leave the business man’s investment to others and confine your own holdings to securities of a higher grad flour has been raised to $7 a barrell, the first advance since last Novem- ber. In spite of this, many Puget Sound mills are running at half capacity.

LOWDEN DECLINES 10 AUN FOR VICE PRESIDENT; RACE IN DOUBT (Continued from Page One.) Secretary Hoover after the arrival from the capitol of Representative Theodore E. Burton, keynoter and temporary chairmen of the conven- tion. Among the dare horses, Dr Mar- fon Leroy Burtn, president of the ‘University of Michigan, who will Place Preside’.t Coolidge in nomina- tion, appeared over night to. have gained a yaore than average share of the I’ght let into his division. Senator Spencer, of Missouri, mean- while continued hs activity in be- @) helf of Governor Hyde, and Iowa @elagates, who have. been instruct- 1 to vote for Representative L. J. ‘Dickinson, were emphasizing that thelr candidate would be placed in nomination by Senator: Cummins and were busy canvassing arrivals from agricultural states. Much talk alos centered about Charles B. War- ren, ambassador to Mexico and chairman of the resolution commit- tee, and the names of Senator Wes ley L. Jones of Washington and Jovernor Dixon of Montana, have been added to the list. Mr. Warren's arrival yesterday was followed confirmation of statements that, although material was on hand from Washington and some o fit represented the views of the administration, the platform Would be built In Cleveland, after a hearing, probably Wednesay, of interested parties. This might de- lay presentation of the platform un- tl Thursday, the day set for nom! nations and force a night sessions to conclude the convention. to go throug a process, beginning to The declaration of principles is to day at the meeting of the advisory committee to formulate suggestions, which includes the platform com imittee's hearings, and them the act- hual work of making the drafts by a small sub-committee. The final stage is expected to consume all of ‘Wednesday. Leaders says they look for little Giffioulty in getting together on a ‘world court plank, but there is some difference of opinion over the advisability of inserting an immi- fration plank. A declaration point- ing to the restoration of diplomatic relations with Mexico and one af- firming the principle of collective bargaining and the right of the individual to labor, are regarded ns likely, Both wet and dry planks are being advocated, but they are al- ady subject to agreat deal of dis- ussion and manuevering. The Ku Klux Klan question also persists in uch of the preliminary discussion m the side. One of the principal latform fights, is expected to find source in the proposed exclusion jendment have their heavy guns place and are ready for the fray, ith the National Woman's Party vocating the amendment, repre- mted by a delegation headed iss Alico Paul and Miss Maude er, veterans of the White picket Ine in pre-suffrage y#, and the national league of men voters In opposition, led by ise «Belle .Sherwin ‘of Cleveland sident, and Miss Jula Lathrop of cago, Vice president. “A of American ." also is being pushed by tion representing business inte ta and the American Protective riff league has advanced a plank jr endorsement of the present tar. law, and planks fovoring a full aty strength navy and aginst a uction in the size of the army platform indus a de ‘ also are ready for proposal. Another current in the tide of lobby talk—and maneuvering there teday about the dissotisfaction among thore defeated in the con- tests for seats in the convention last week before the Republican conven- tion committee. Almost all of these discussions, it appears, will becar- ried to the committee on credentials, which will meet tmmediately after the opening of session of the con- vention to prepare a permanent roll in time to permit the prefecting of eas organization Wednes- lay. A conference of South Dakota del- egates was called today to decide whether to place the name of Sena- tor Hiram Johnson formally before convention for the presidential nom- ination. Despite his action in re- leasing all delegates pledged to him, 8. XN. Way, first of the South Dakota uriValsy says the California senator would receive their vote, since they were bound by thelr election to cast the state ballot for him. The LaFollette delegates from Wisconsin, who also will cast a. block of vote against President Coolidge, was called together today to take final action on the platform propo- is they will “fight for” in the con- vention, Robert M. LaFollette, Jr., said last night that “the delegation will conduct itself here precisely as it did in Chicago in 1920." Delegates and confirmed conven- tion visitors who have found the pré-convention proceedings tame this year as in comparison with choice memories of past battles for the prizes, turned hopeful eyes to- ward the caucus tonight of the Ohlo delegation because of statements by friends of Former Attorney General Daugherty that they intended to make him delegation choice. WATSON BOOMED BY THE KLAN CLEVELAND; June 9.—Imperial Wizard W. H. Evans, of the Ku Klvx Klan, on his arrival from Atlanta today, came out with a dec: laration for Senator Jamos E. Wat- son of Indiana as the Klan’s can- didate for vice president. Mr. Evans made known the Klan’s position in the following statement “All of our boys throughout the nation will urderstand only one thing and that is Senator James F. Watson for vice president—fiat. “We will deny any responsibility, for the defeat pf the Republican party at the pgils in November if Watson Is not selected for vice pronl+ dent on the ground that he is the most available candidate to carry middle states which are necessary for the election of Coolitge.”” Senator Watson, of Indiana, im- mediately repudiated the statement Issued by the Imperial Wizard, "I don't boa to the Ku Klux Klan,’ the senator said, “if they have is- sued a statement naming me, they have done it for the expressed pur- pose of injuring me. “Such a statement,” Senator Wat- son added, “was made wtihout my knowledge or eensent and is wholly without authority by me or any one having the right to represent me.” COTTON NEW YORK, June 9. ton, quiet; middling, $28.85.

NEW YORK, June 9.—The stock market ushered in the new week with irregularly higher prices. Ad- jourment* of congress with its re- moval of uncertainty regarding leg- islation inspired buying in various Sections of the Mst but it was of a cautions character, most of the initt- al price changes being of a fractional) nature. Rails were in fairly good demand, Erie and Atlantic Coast line opening half higher. Stock prices turned reactfonary soon after the opening as heavy sel Ung orders appeared in several speci- alties adversely effected by trade conditions. New 1924 lows were es tablished by more than a dozen shares including Lima Locomotlve, United States Realty, Amercan Sum: atra Tobacco, Otis Steel preferred, and South Porto Rican sugar, the losses ranging from fractions to 3 points. Willys Overland ‘preferred dropped 2%. Independent strength Was shown by Pierce Ol preferred, National Lead and Puntra Alegee Sugar, up 1 to 2- points, and by Fleischmann and’ Philadelphia com- pany, which touched new 1924 tops. All the United States government bonds touched new highs. Foreign exchange rates held. steady with little trading due to the observance of Whit Monday abroad. The market presented a spotty ap- pearance during the morning with trade in light volume, An apparent effort to unsettle the general list by concentrating pressure on the steel shares in anticipation of an- other big drop in'the May unfilled tonnage of the United States Steel corporation to be made public to- morrow, met with little success, al- though United States Steel common duplicated its 1924 low of 9414 while Bethlehem and yanadium, touched new bottom prices. ympathetic evidence developed in a number of equipments and motor issues. Investment buying of public util ites resulted in some good gains in those issues, International” Telo- phone rising 2&% to 76%, a new 1924 top, and Virginia Railway and Power moving up 2 points. Call money opened at 2 % per cent, the lowest renewal rate in five years. Easy monetary conditions, con- tinued strength of Liberty bonds and concerted buying of various low priced railroads and industrials con- tributed to a genera rise.
