Fillmore asked the | senate for a special appropriation for a bath tub and specialists told n it would be dangerous to bathe between Oct. 1 and June 1. But he finally got the appropriation “But what about the presidents of pre-bathing days?” he demanded. “Was Fillmore greater than Thomas Jefterson?” Governor-Elect Joseph B.

Another upturn, wider than the first, was followed by pronounced heavi- | nuss of the oils. Standard of California dropped 2 points to new low ground, and Standard of N. J. lost more than a| point. Texas Corp., Standard of N. Y., General Asphalt, and Phillips were among issues selling off a point or 50 to new low ground. Atchison lost about 2 points, rallied, and sag- ged again. Union Pacific dropped 3, then recovered. U. S. Steel was one of the firmest issues in the list, selling up 2 points, and refusing to vield much of its gain. Other is- sues selling up 2 or more included American Telephone, Westinghouse Electric, National Biscuit, Chicago & Northwestern, and Johns Manville, while such issues as General F tric, DuPont, and Pennsylvania gain- ed a point or so.

S8kelley de- clared its regular preferred dividend Crude oil and gasoline prices are at unprofitable levels, however, and fourth quarter earnings estimates rather gloomy. Most of the Standard companies report their earnings only once a yrar.
