Some Curious Theories Seme mighty curious theories regard ing the market trend nre dally ex ,nW in the i ffeicnt beard rooms. I me advance the theory with charts indelgns there h no limit te the cur Mttt bull movement and this element declare the current! high quotation will leek cheap before the forward ring reaches the apex. Others, with charts and by the study of the stars, find a big reaction is in sight. 1 It must be remembered, peel oper ations, of which there' have been many recently, are carried en for the pur pose, net only of advancing prices but te afford a basis for distribution of ac cumulated lines in these particular Issues tt a profit te the peel members. In ether words, unless enre Is constantly exercised these who nre carried away with enthusiasm by such demonstra tions arc likely te find themselves pick ing up things whicn may prove a bit slippery when the enthusiasm dies down. Enormous borrowing U required te finance such markets as recently wit nessed, especially with prices reaching new highs, continually leaving the con stant danger of there being some morn ing, net just enough te go nreund. Mar ket reactions nre seldom heralded ex cept te these possessing the ability te rcna the tape, but they ceme with nstenlshing suddenness and without warning. Politics and tha Morltet The early returns from the Maine election Indicating the Republican party will be returned te office with the nennnl margin was received favor ably en the Street. It likewise brought attention te the fact that politics will seen play n big part In the dally mar ket discussion. Bccause of the engross ing attention given te the labor trou bles many ether considerations hnve been relegated te the background or lest In the shuffle. Unless- surface signs are misleading, the market is rapidly approaching, or has reached, the Juncture where out side events will come In for a great deal of discussion. As the groin mar kets hnve the annual crop scares, se docs the stock market have political scares. There Is no reason why the current market should be Immune. Te the contrary, the lncrcnslng cress-currents, which each day become mere pronounced, are likely te leave the structure vulnerable te unpleasant sur prises. That is, if any occur.

Producers and Refiners Considerable talk is heard concerning proposed combinations and consolida tions of the domestic nil companies. One of these mentioned is the Producers and Refiners. According te the Street reports, ne gotiations nre under way for the ab sorption of this property by the Stand ard Oil Interest through one of the sub sidiary companies. This step, it is re ported, has been under consideration for seme time. The purpese of the ab sorption Is te obtain the extensive oil properties owned nnd controlled by the Producers nnd Refiners in the Salt Creek district In Wjemlng. The im portance of this field has increased ma terially, following the drilling results obtained outslde of the Government re- serve properties in the Tea Pet field turned ever te the Sinclair interests. Bullish en Equipments Of the various groups, none has grown In greater favor in the specula tive community than the equipment shares. As a matter of fact, this par ticular group has mere than ence been the principal sustaining power of the forward swing. Notwithstanding, the stock is selling at the top price of the year. Baldwin Locomotive, it was said after the clese yesterday, would be made thechlef feature e! the division. It wS' asserted yesterday ene of the most aggressive operators, who had much te de with bullish nctivitles since his return from Europe, Is devoting most of his attention te this stock. In some circles it was believed Baldwin Locomotive will make a greater advance than any ether stock in this group. There were man v. however, who are generally well informed about market affairs who were positive that Pullman Company has the greatest advance in prospect of nny of railroad equipment lssue3 and It will steudlly move up te new high prices. Vanadium's Business Improving J. Lenard Replogle, chairman of the beard of Vanadium Corporation of America, in a statement te the stock holders at the annual meeting, said the company's business Is showing con stant improvement nnd the August earnings will be somewhat In exceps of $90,000 net after ull charges. 'New fields are being steadily developed, and It Is noteworthy that Vanadium steel has been specified en about 82 per cent of the locomotives ordered by the rail roads of the United States during the last year. European business, however, Is practically nil and no Immediate im provement la looked for In that quarter. Vanadium's current liabilities ap proximate $40,000. while quick assets arc around $.'.000,000, roughly ninety times liabilities. THE TRADER.

Every President Is advised by a host of nobodies what te de and what net te de. Mr. Harding s the object of adverse criticism because Jobs are scarce and money Is tight.' The stimulation of trade and the high price of labor that satisfied all have given way te a natural law nnd the Inevitable has happened. The situation is made mere acute by the advent of unnecessary strikes; this added hardship Is of humanity's own making. The President of the United States is net expected te get the idle employ ment. Fluctuations of values are net et his making. Ignorance nnd Us twin sister, vlcleusness, Invariably blame these misfortunes en the head of the Government. If these wiseacres see the President's dereliction, or rather the caufe of It, as freemen they should arise and ad rise blm as te hew te correct his ways. A LEDGEB READER. Philadelphia, September 11. 1022. The Uses of Education Te tha Editor of th Evmtna Publte Ltdatrl Sir I read the ether day about the school and teachers of a town out in Michigan or Minnesota Owosso was the name of (he nlnce who planned n new curriculum for (heir hleh school They seemed, according te the story that tumu uuuvr my aiirnueu, w uue tti' notion thnt some of the young people te be educated in Owosso might want te remain in the vicinity and settle down te ordinary home lite. Accord ingly, the report gees en te state, they are going te let them have the satis faction nnd the honor of graduating even if they can't bone out a chapter of Caesar by the aid of a lexicon or stammer a few sentences in French. Alse graduation is te be possible with out algebra or geometry, provided the applicants for sheepskins can show that they knew something of commercial suhjects, manual training and the household arts. It is certain such innovations are made ever the nretcst of the orthodox educators. They may, it is true, have the secret sympathy of thousand? of ex srads who found after commencement thnt their chelcu lay between leaving home and continuing the pursuits of higher education or following the ordinary callings of the surrounding business nnd domestic llfe and promptly forgetting tha major part of what they had toiled for se hard in school. It is a very old meet question, just what forgotten learning does for the learner. The newspaper from which I glean my Information about the Owosso revolution adds this cemment: "Every body knows about hew many of the people of Owos&e and vicinity, or of nny like place, will have daily need of their algebra and geometry. And every body knows also that the practical nursing course und the lesions in house hold economics and the commercial studies which the new Owosso high school will offer its students as sub stitutes for the required higher mathe matics will be pretty useful sub stitutes." I can't say this opinion Is my own. On the contrary I have found the smattering of Latin which I obtained in my high school course, which marked the climax of my educational oppor tunities, and the still smaller smattering of Greek nnd the slight insight into algebra nnd geometry that accompanied these ncqusltiens, have been of no little value te rhe In the business which I was ?crferce compelled te enter as seen a? received my "diploma," as we called it in these days. I am n firm believer in the studies that have been eliminated from the curriculum of the Michigan high school, for n variety of renceni that would take up tee much of your valuable 6pece if I attempted te specify them. And I venture te believe that the consensus of the best educational opinion In this part of the country, at least, will indorse my view. HIGH SCHOOL GRADUATE. LiUillUSlCl , ., Ut.V(-uiil.. v, isa.

'8weet Land of Liberty" Te th Editor et th Evenlne Public ttdatri Wr A Matcmcnt purporting te have v t..l wwantlv Vttr ttlfk KflVlet CtOV nrnment efflrlsl at Moscow defends their new policy of exiling these who openly oppose Bolshevist doctrines as being humanitarian and net harsh. "These men," se n section of the re re marknble document reads, "hnve proved themselves unable te appreciate the proletarian psjcholegy." Obviously Inability te appreciate the proletarian psychology Is considered a serious crime. Such an attitude does net say much for liberty of speech and thought under Soviet rule. The enlv freedom which nprcars te nc cenn fennnrerl censtats 111 the sweet lirlVlleBC Of giving three cheers for everything the Belshevlhts deslrn nnd believe. These who differ with them nnd sny se must nnv the nennltv of exile. Under the new Soviet law, as recent ly described In dispatches, political of fenders mny be nantsneu witneut trial, n special commissioner having been dele gated te pass en the cases. This weithy apparently suffered enlargement of the heart in the instance of several edu cators who were told that the exile order would be susncndcd If thc.v would hie themclves across the frontier nnd out of Rusin within a week. How Hew How ever, that was putting them out of the way and accomplishing an object desired In another manner. The purpose of exile is te bnnish these who might wield an influence against the Soviet Government. It Is doubtful If there Is any country In the world new where there Is less actual "liberty" than in Russia. In the recent commitments for exile there has been n marked leaning te the Intellectual class. Thev seem te be the ones ordinarily who are least able te appreciate tltc "proletarian psychol ogy." Seme two hundred professors, lawyers, authors, doctors and journal ists compose n group te be banibhed te two Islands in the Aictle, nnd there held incommunicado for terms ranging as much as three yenrs. Of course, the Islands will be well guarded te prevent the escape of any ene daring te thrust himself into the cruel wilderness of that country, and prisoners will have te put -up with whateer comforts the Belshetists ee fit te provide.
