BUSINESS UAL00K SATISFES SISSON om a business standpoint the #ix months compare favorably with any six months'- period in the histery of our na(lop > sald Francis H. BLson, Wall ‘street ' banker and vicspresident of'th¥ Guaranty Trust Co., of New Y spggking in the Chautauqua - tenl alnut Hill park last evening on the subject, “Pfoblems of Présperity.” The tone of Mrk Bisson's address was decidedly optifpistic as regards business conditions fin this country. Bank deposits, he siid, had never been greater and-mofiey for invest- ments was available at reasonable rates. Mr. Sisson spoke of the large number of new industries which had eprung up in the last fewiyears, par- ticylarly those which manufacture ud-lo- and numerous kingdy of elec- tflcll appliances., “The area and re- sources of this country are #ufficient to support a population of five hun- dre¢: million people,” declared the speaker. Although the UnitedStates coutains only six per cent of, the population of the world, he #ald, it produced 50 per cent of the world's ironjand steel, 55 per centdf the cot- ton and 40 per cent of the timber. Ous of 25 million automobiles in usg‘ today throughout thé world, 20 mfillfon of them, said Mr. Sisson, are to be found in this country. e greatest of all of America's lems, continued the speaker, is !he"problem of handling wisecly this vast wealth and material resources. *These,” he forcefully declared, “are not_for ourselves alone. We are trustees! Our national slogan should not be simply ‘Live and let lye:’. It rather 5hnu1d be, ‘Live and he!p others live'. Mr. Sisson spoke of the terrible costs of the world war, ten million in men and 437 billion dollars. Un- der this heavy burden of debt the whele world is now staggering. “The world must have peace as a basis of’economic progress. Qur prosper- ity;depends upon world prosperity,” he' declared. The speaker closed his address with a plea for all to keep faith with the brave men who “sleep in anders fields” by doing everything possible to promote the spirit of peacc and good will among men, that the curse of war might never again darken the world's hor- izon. Preceding Mr. Sisson's Miss Louisc Stallings, New York meé2zo-soprano, accompanied by Marion Carley on the piano, enter- tained delightfully in a recital of grpups of French, Spanish, English and American songs. Miss Stallings’ clear, mellow voice and pleasing per- sonality, captivated the audience from the first number. Her rendi- tion' of “The Second Minuet” and ‘Long, Long Ago” struck particular- lyiresponsive chords in the hearts of her hearers. Miss“Carley in several solos, demonstrated her skill as a planist and showed herself worthy of capturing the Damrosch prize of a thousand doljars last year. ‘This evening at 8 o'clock "The Eirefly,"” a comic opera by Rudolph P‘r‘ml will be given by a cast of 15. *“In elaborate costuming and ucenic effects this opera surpasses all pro- ctions that have ever been at- tcmpted upon the Swarthmore Chau- tguqua platform,” said W.

PRICES AGAIN ON UPWARD MOVEMENT Lower Raandfiwtmem De- mand Cause Boom By the Assoclated Press. New York, July 7.—Lower money rates and a good investment demand provided the groundwork for an- other advance in prices in today's stock market, but trading was rather dull on the rally. Buying appeared to originate largely with profes- slonal traders, several of -the larger commission houses reporting little participation. Although pools succeeded in marking up more than a score is- sues to new high levels for the year, including Baldwin, American Express, American Bank Note, Brown Shoe, and Five Cigar stocks, buying of the general list was re- stricted by recent unfavorable trade news. This included & sharp drop in pig iren production last June, the recent falling off in freight car loading and the report that the country’s steel mills were operating well below .70 per cent of capaeity. Baldwin Locomotive, which is op- erating at 10 per.cefit of capacity, crossed 239 tg.a’new peak, and the preferred pefiched the callable price of 125 for the first time. Strength of Collins and Aikman was based on unconfirmed reports that control .of the company was sought by one of the. large automobile concerns. Heavinéss of ~Famous .

General Motors, Hudson, Du Pont and International Hary ness. Merger issues continued to fea- ture the rail group with Kansas City Southern and Chicago and Eastern Illinols common and preferred reaching new high ground. Wall Street Opening Prices moved in rather narrow limits at the opening of the stock market today, with advances in the majority. Baldwin opened 1-2 point highr at 738 1-4, a new high. Operatofs for the advance con- tinued to derive confidence from ecasy money conditions and the enor- mous reinvestment demand. New highs were quickly established by Bayuk Cigars, Congress Cigars General Cigars, gains ranging from a fraction in the last named to 1 5-8 points. Other issues which sold up to new tops included Collins & Aik- man, which rose 4 points, Brown Shoe, Household Products and American Bank Note, with advances of a point or so. The rail list was represented in the early dealings by Norfolk & Southern, which went up 2, Atlantic Coast Line 1 1-2 and Te- h valley 1. Westinghouse Air- Union Bag and Paper, Fast- man Kodak and Canada Dry Ginger Ale also displayed strength. United Fruit soon jumped 3 1-2 points.
