It was generally expected that tlio further illscotiriiglnB news from
Franco carried In the olllclal bulletins thin morning would cause n tils
lurbnnce of market condition, and this belief was hot no out at the. be
ginning of business when the market generally showed losses of 1 point
or more. However, It was not Ioiir before buying orders, which were In
oil the leading stocks, mused n llrmcr tone, with rallies In the llr.st llf
tcen minutes all through the list, and comment was made on the manner
In which most of tho early losses wete recovered.
It was a general assumption that banking buying was In the market
on recessions on a scale Inrgo enough to overcome both scattered Ihiuhlit
Hon and short sales b room traders, and during the remainder of the
forenoon tho Important movements were to higher prices.
There was a wide opening In United States Steel common, which sold
as soon os tho gong sounded at 9094 to DO", showing n loss of IS. but
before many minutes passed that stock again ranged nbovo 91.
Later In the forenoon International Paper became tho most promi
nent feature, advancing more than 3 points to 30.,. with tho buying nat
urally attributed to the showing mndo In tho annual report published
esterday morning that net earnings for 1917 were equal to 31 on the
common stock.
Inspiration Copper continued In persistent demand, and was one of
the few stocks that made u gain In tho Initial trading. Itnilrnad storks
wen- generally heavy, with t'nlon Pacific and I'hesapcni.o tind Ohio both
showing cnily losses of neatly 1 point.

LIBERTY
and
OPPORTUNITY
Our fathers built an empire from a wilderness,
founding a refuge for the. oppressed of all the
world. Our free institutions and natural resources
offer to all, who will work and behave themselves,
matchless opportunities for higher living.
This "is our priceless inheritance held in trust to
deliver to coming generations.
Have we today the physical fiber, the national
unity and the unconquerable spirit to guard this
heritage against the attack of a brutal and faith
less foe? We can win only by gigantic co-operation
some of us fighting, some producing, all
buying LIBERTY BONDS.
