Demand for the western rail shares continued unabated. with Western Pacific. Great Northern preferred and “800’! preferred mov- ing up briskly. Public utilities and various industrlsls also attracted fresh buying power. The conspicicus strength shown by investment shares and buying of low priced rolls with merger prospects accentuated the general upward movement in the early dealings. The possibility of higher freight rates for the northwest also exerted a tonic influence on the carrier isv sues. Specialties responded to the op- erations of professional cliques. with motor stocks replacing the oils on an important speculative medium. Electric power and local traction is- sues held the leadership of the pub- lic utility group. American Water Works snd Brooklyn-Manhattan Transit stood out with two point gains. Ten .new high records were established during the first half hour. including Du Pont- and the Pierce Arrow issues. . The advance gathered momentum throughout the foronocn expansion of trading. Buying of a diversified list of stocks \\1s inspired by the belief that underlying business con- ditions were more favorable and that a continuance of easy money rates was steadily reducing the floating supply of desirable invest- ment shares. Local traction issues continued to swing upwards in re- sponse to Wall streot's favorable in- terpretation of the political outlook in its bearing on the transit situa- tion. Reports of special distribu- tions, merger proposals and higher earnings laid the basis for the rise in several industrials.

The matter of an appropriation requested for repairs on the Roway- ton dock of $000 was passed over until more information was received regarding thp deedlng of the prop. erty to the city. When the paving of East avenue was brought up Mayor Robins stated that he had been in communication with the New York. New Haven and Hartford Railroad company about running a tunnel under the tracks at the East avenue bridge so that the new sidewalk can be built and the road widened. He read a letter from the com- pany in which they stated. that they would share part of the cost of the work. Mayor Robins estimated that the city's share would be between' $10. 000 and 812. 000. No action was taken on this additional cost by the Board. Paving East Avenue. Mr. McMahon said that he thought that the cost of the paving could be cut considerably if the concrete was only six inches in thickness at the side of the roads. He was of the opinion that the traffic would not be so heavy and that this thickness would ounce. City Engineer Elmer Bracken and Street Committeemsn M. J. Riordan thought that the roadway should be eight inches, thick from curb do curb as called for in the specifica- tions put out by the state. They did not think that the saving in grading the thickness off would be very large. Mayor Robins informed the Board that if the specifications 1presented by the state were not carried out that the state aid might be taken away. Re 1111! been informed that these specifications must be used. as this was the type 'of road that the State Highway Department thought was best for East avenue. Mark H.

The Trolley Tracks Mayor Robins announced that the directors of the Connecticut Coin- pany would be in Norwalk June as or 21 and would decide at that time as to what. they were going to do with the trolley car tracks in the street. .

Mr. Ksntor is interested in devel- opment there at the present time. and has returned North only for a much needed rest. When asked to account for. the phenomenal growth of this section. he said that the climate of all your summer is enticing to thousands of people. In addition. he was very much impressed with the remarka- bio ferming facilities. He said he was immedistcliy struck by the place. when a chance winter sojourn acquainted him with it. He is one of the early promoters of the Florida boom. having placed investments there more than two years ago. He has been successful in all his enterprises. His negotiations during the past two years have not been restricted to farming lands. but have included practically every phase of real es- tate, apartment houses. office build- ings and loneral city property. His investments there having al- most ontlrely boon disposed of. he will rowrn shortly for further busi- uses. which he intimates will be of large proportions. It is expected that he will enter into negotiations with a large Florida syndicate for land in the immediate vicinity of Miami. Plans are also pending for s. new moving picture theater to be situat- ed in Miami. Nothing definite has yet been done regarding this matter. although a favorable site has been selected for its erection. Mr. Kantor will go to Bantam Lake.

WASHINGTON. June 17 (AP).- Hopes of officials here that the Chi~ nose situation would soon be smooth. ed but without further harm to for- . signers have been heightened by dis. patches from Shanghai that settle- ment of the trouble is near.

Although a Peking dispatch re- ported plans for a special demon- stration of students June 25 it was hoped that no further serious devel~ opments would occur to more direct- ly involve this government. Another. reassuring note was seen in an earlier report to the state de- partment from Charde D'Affairps Mayer at Peking, who was visited by representatives or the striking student groups in Shanghai They asked the Charge for American as. slstance in obtaining a Just solution of their troubles and were assured by Mr. Meyer that all the powers concerned were seeking that end.

Chang Tao-Lin of Msnchurla and Feng Yu-Hslsng, opposing lead- ers in north Chins. have quartered their troops in or near Peking and some observers predict that an open clash may occur. General Chang has leaned toward the foreign interests which are being opposed by the striking students. while there are in. dications that General ang is re- ceiving assistance from Soviet Bus- sin.

Mr. Berg represents the third generation of his faintly in charge-of the company. He has the backing of the Nor- wslk Board of Trade and has plans to purchase a new site here for an enlarged factory. Equipment is be~ ing moved from the New Jersey plantvdaily. and it is expected that within a few weeks the local estab- lishment will be able to get under‘ way in full swing. Pickets were around the factory until last Firday. when an injunc- tion was issued against the union men by Judge John Walsh. There Lhas been no sign of trouble since. The following statement was is- sued to The Evening Sentinel by Mr. Berg today "I am very well satisfied with operating conditions in Norwalk. "Concerning reports that F. Berg 8; Company is having labor difficul- ties. I would state, it has been re- ported that we have reduced the wage scale. This is not true. In consolidating the two concerns there‘ were a great many things to adjust and took quite a little time. We readjusted the wage scale of Berg and Pope. We advanced the scale on four different items in our finishing department and under the new wage scale finishers earned as high as $12 a day. and in the long run the new wage scale will be bene- ficial to the working man. We will show a greater earning power 'than any factory in Orange has shown in years and Will guarantee to show greater earning power than any fao~ tory in Orange will show for the next year. “We are operating our plant with a full crew under conditions which are satisfactory to both managers and employees. As a matter of fact. we have 111017 applicants for work than we have jobs to be filled. "The business men of Norwalk. as well as the workers. are co-operating with us in cvery'way. They have recognised the danger of too much denomination by irresponsible labor officials. and although the factory is run under open shop principles the workers are apparently con- tented. happy and prosperous. “We have always adopted a policy of fair treatment toward our eni- ployes. whether they are union or non-union. “We are trying to make it clear to the public and workers that no business can be run from the out~ side by disinterested parties. as there are bound to be controversies and differences in opinion . arising between management and Markers. In our opinion these difficulties can best be settled through co-operatlon between the parties directly interest- ed and involved." Saucy. Sue. Wins Coronation Stakes ASCOT. England.
