STOCK PRICES RISE IN LIVELY MARKET; Advances ‘word by All the Industrials, and Rails to a Lesser Degree. The Stock Market this morning was able to resume the forward movement which got under way yes- terday and at the end of the first three hours of business gains ex- tending from good sized fractions to ®ore than two points predominated. Impulse for buying was found 'n eables which stated that at the con- ference held at Mudania an armis- tice had been signed and that possi- Dility of a war between England and ‘Turkey had practically vanished. The foreign exchange markets showed substantial response to this news, with demand sterling showing a gain of more than a cent to the pound sterling and a recovery of nearly four cents from the recent low. Railroad stocks worked higher in or- @eeiy fashion with purchases for pub- IM wccount being an important factor im the movement. Equipment stocks and motors were conspicuously firm, the former group disregarding the heaviness of Pullman which was un- favorably influenced by the annual re- Port. It dropped nearly three points. Most excitement was furnished by the oils, and Standard Otis in particu- Jar. Overnight announcement that the Standard O11 Company of California will distribute a 100 per cent. stock dividend to shareholders resulted in a gain of six points in that issue and lent strength to the opinion that other Standard Oj] units will take similar action, Up to noon there were more tha: 40,000 shares of Standard O11 of Call- fornia alone traded in. Standard Oii of New Jersey rose to 210 1-4, a new high since dissolution, and a gain of More than six points, while Indepen- dent Oils were able to show guins of from one to more than three points, Reichel seemcdel ad TRAGK WORKERS DENIED INCREASE IN RATE OF PAY ee Public Group Fails to Put Over Pay Raise for Main- tenance of Way Men. CHICAGO, Oct. ea proposal for ® 2 cent an hour increase for track and common laborers of the Mainta nance of Way Union, numbering about 300,000, has been temporarily refused by the United States Railroad Labor Board. The public representatives, Chair man Ben W. Hooper, R. M. H. Bar- ton and G. W. W. Hanger, it was authoritatively reported, tons since the 6 cents an hour de- erease became effective, July 1 last. "Last Monday, the Maintenance of Way organization went into conven tion at Detroit, witr its President impatiently waiting @ decision on his plea for .~ increase to explain his action July 1 in holding in abeyance a strike vote and refusing to accom- pany the shop crafts in a walkout. 'W. L, McMenimen and A, O. Whar- ton, of the labor group, were said to have opposed the increase. They sought a larger increase, which was rejected. Although the deadlock was said to be only temporary and an increaso almost sure, some doubt was expressed ) @8 to whether the Labor Board would | again consider the Maintenance of ‘Way case until two absent members ‘ return. Both are expected by the mid- @e of this month. The present minimum for the com- ™mon laborers and track men, under ‘he recent decision of the Labor Board, ranges from 28 to 95 cents an hour. In his plea before the Labor | Board, President Grable asked for a 48 cents an hour minimum and a def- ‘ mition of a living wage. The board | took up the quistion of a living wage and refused to define it. ‘NO SHORTAGE OF CARS TO MOVE ANTHRACITE Lehigh Valley Reports we creases Over Last Year. ‘That anthracite coal is being mined | am@ moved in larger quantities at the , Oresent time than was the case this , time test year, was said by oifeials of , the Lehigh Valley Rattroad, to-day, to be evident that there is no shortage of @mal cars.

These womea didn’t attempt to play hostess to the 38,000 or more women In New York who belong to the Only American Bankers’ Association, That would have been a really unwieldly luncheon party. But they did gather at the Plaza about forty of the women who are real bankers, who are secre- tartes, cashiers, department in banks dotted all oven the United States, from Oklahoma to Plainfield, N.

These women bankers are so keen on their work that at a little informal, friendly luncheon party they couldn't talk about anything else! They told each other how they came to enter banking, what they hoped to do, how fascinating the work was, how much mone encouraging the men are than they used to be, h delightful it was for women bankets to become ac- quainted with one another, how won- derful the work was, how all sorts of possibilities were in the future of the woman banker, how they would never do anything else, how EXTRAORDI.

D.' says that when he wants show notes cleaned up and overdrafts cut down he takes his vacation and turns things over to Mrs. Cusenbary. “My husband taught me all I know about banking. My mother wouldn't Jet me learn any sort of business when I was a girl. But tn 1901, twenty-one years ago, at the opening of southwest Oklahoma, I was cashier of the first bank of Walters, Okla. I went into the bank to help my husband, and I've been tn a bank ever since,”’ Mrs. Cusenbary should be referred respectfully to A. 8. M. Hutchineon, the English novelist, as Exhibit A. It is Mr. Hutchinson’s contention, in “This Fréedom,"" his recently pub- shed and widely discussed book, that a woman who is @ success as a banker must thereby be a failure as @ mother, Says Mrs. Cusenbary, cheerfully: “I've run a bank and a baby at one and the same timegalso chickens, a cow and a horse, for good measure.” Another guest at the luncheon was a young woman from nearer home, slender, rather delicate-looking Miss Adele H. Kirby, Assistant Sgcretar) of the Plainfield, N. J., Truét Com- pany. Miss Kirby was originally a Hbrarian, but wished to make more money and tovk secretarial training. The first opening for her services was with the Plainfield Trust Company— but let her go on with her story: “The chief exevutive of the Institution at that time—a man who now oc- cupies one of the most tmportant banking posts in the United States— was sufficiently broad-minded to give me a chance to learn something about the business and perform duties out- side of my routine tasks. “His successor, who was a man of Mike callbre, gave me the same free- dom with the result that before I ized it, I had become infatuated with the banking game, both from the hu- man and the academic standpoint, and found myself doing anything and everything that I could lay my hands on. It was gratifying, of course, when in 1918, our Board of Directors gave me the title of Assistant Secre- ‘ary and Assistant Treasurer, thus en- abling me to de more effectively the work to which I had so gladly devoted Ml my energies. “My present duties include prac- tically everything that constitutes the dally programme of the men execu- tives of our institution. In addition, I have charge of the advertising and devote much of my time to the activi- ties of the Trust Department—a brarich of the work which seems to have attracted few women, but which; I believe, offers them unusual oppor+ tunities for helpful service. “Thousands of women are employed at present in our banking Institutions, The door has been opened—never to be shut. And I believe that the pres- ent tendency to limit the activities of the woman executive to the manage- ment of the women’s departments will be succeeded by a broader gauge policy. Banking 1g not a matter of sex, and a woman who ts fitted to hold an executive position should have the same freedom tn dealing with both men and women as thé woman phy- sician, attorney or merchant. The woman who will be the greatest economic asset is the one who is al lowed all possible latitude in develop- ing her latent capabilities."’ And they're a capable bunch, these banking women. Let's hope they grow in numbers and responsibility according to their hearts’ desire! Among the women who attended the luncheon to visiting women bank of- ficers were Miss Mary 1.
