ANCIAL CURB STOCKS SAG ON PROFIT-TAKING Price Ranges Narrow—Fire- stone Tire Breaks—Motors Lose Buoyancy. BY WILLIAM F. HEFFERNAN, Special Dispat:h to The Star NEW YORK, March 13.—Spectacular syrations in a few individual stocks | m the big board failed to have the sym- pathetic influence they did vesterday upon the industrial specialtics in the Curb Market. The list whole was subjected to more or less profit-taking, which had its reflection in lower prices. | But even in the high-priced issues sub- ject to rapid fluctuations, the price )i Tange Was narrow. Firestone Tire was an_exception in this respect, however, breaking five The motor lost a good deal of the bu ancy characteristic of yesterday's s: sion and were either neglected or left to drift for themsalves, Campbell Wyant & Canon Foundry, wiich has shared in the General Mo- tors improvement recently because of its affiliations with that company. broke more than a point when reali: &g sales made their appearance, but selung was ovderly, and the price later recovered part of the lost ground. As a rule, losses were confined within a point of previous final quotations and were the resuit of a desire o lighten up accounts because of the uncertam staie of affairs exisung i the market. There were no developments in the overnight news to influence speculadve sentiment. 1t was a market dominated | by the professional clement, which had { been chiefly concerned with technical gonditions rignt a‘ong. Utilities moved irtegularly, with Elec- irjc Bond & Share down a point and United Gas & Improvement in scant | supply around the 118 level.

Correspondence of the Associated Press, BERLIN.—A discussion on the subtle difference between a State official ac- cepting a nice open handed tip and his succumbing to an mempmr bribery, | taxed the acumen of the members of the Reichstag committee draughting a new German penal code. In section 7, paragraph 123, dealing with the violation, usurpation and cor- ruption of official duties, the committee |had the greatest difficulty in agreeing on the momentous question as to jus where bribery began. It was finally de cided that pessing a tip to an ofcial was not to be considered rl‘pl’f'hr‘n!lbl?l for either party if the act was merely | inepired by the giver's kindness of heart | or a spirit of good fellowship and ac- | cepted in that sense. but that it be-| came bribery if given and accepted for the performance of an official duty. | Likewise agreed upon was mrngnph‘ 124, dealing inversely with the omission of an officlal duty in exchange for a| remuneration of any kind, for which 1; maximum penalty of five years peniten- | tiary for the receiver of the tip was' provided and varying jail sentences for the giver.
