Teday’s Stock Market NEW YORK (®—Railroad issues gained fractions to as much as three points today as the stock market held to a steady course. Activity was a little better than ; Tuesday but was still at a slow Pace. Atlantic Coast Line, which ad- vanced 5% Tuesday, continued its Saining tendencies today. It backed away a bit from its best price of the day around the midway mark but still was up around a point at times. Seaboard Air Lines was ahead around three points at one time and Santa Fe, New York Central, Southern Railway and Union Pa- cific were up fractions. Among the advances were Re- public Steel, Goodrich Rubber, Cat- erpillar, Commonwealth American Telephone, Kennecott Copper, McIntyre, Allied Chemical and Philip Morris. The curb market showed the same steady and narrow traits. The advances included American Republics, DuMont Laboratories and Mesabi Iron.

Mr. and Mrs. Link and Mr. and Mrs. Peterson are particularly en- thusiastic about Key West and it’s absence of Mosquitos. They said it was hard to understand how Key West could be so completely free of Mosquitos and flies by compar- ison to the relatively nearby other Keys that still have them. The pre- valance of constant cross winds are the probable answer as there is excellent mosquito control on the Keys at the present time, VOTE BY COUNTIES | Marion (36-25) 4,648 4 caaed From Page One) Monroe (17-17) 3,001 lagler (7-7) 664 322 | Nassau (16-13) 1,389 Franklin (5-5) 1,155 759 | Okaloosa (36-35) 4,545 Gadsden (15-15) 2,559 2,002 Okeechobee (10-10) 934 Gilchrist (7-7) 698 542) Orange (45-45) 11,089 Glades (8-8) 373 242 | Osceola (10-6) 227 Gulf (9-9) 1,104 841/Palm Beach (56-56) 15,938 Hamilton (11-7) 272 258| Pasco (27-18) ,182 Hardee (18-17) 1,377 2,009 | Pinellas (85-85) 15,155 Hendry (10-10) 826 963 | Polk (48-40) 11,697 Hernando (13-13) 1,398 = 1,047} Putnam (27-27) Highlands (24-24) 2,289 2,395 St. Johns (40-40) Hillsb’ (82-82) 23,432 29,880 St. Lucie (15-15) Holmes (23-21) 2,477 4,393 | Santa Rosa (26-12) Indian River (11-11) 2415 1,149 | Sarasota (16-16) Jackson (32-28) 3,942 3,627 | Seminole (16-16) Jefferson (13-13) 1,400 577 |Sumter (12-12) LaFayette (5-5) 829 423 | Suwannee (20-20) Lake (26-26) 4,222 4,819 Taylor (13-13) Lee (24-24) 2,701 3,003 | Union (5-5) Leon (12-12) 8,082 4,527 | Volusia (57-57) Levy (18-18) 1,611 1,671 | Wakulla (13-13) Liberty (6-6) 679 668 | Walton (28-28) Madison (12-12) 1,931 981 | Washington (22-22) 2,331 8,881 677 2,591 2,327 4,161 4,301 | Total (1,682-1,650) 361,644 323,136 makes loans for any worthwhile pur- pose, Try ‘em and see next time you're short, SE HABLA ESPANOL CULL GA CR 524 SOMTHARD SI...
