NEw YORK CITY, Jan 22 — For
the first time in wseveral years there
is a gfeam of real 'hope in Wan
Street. Stock exchange seats ar al-
ready selling 40 percent higher than
the 1941 low. Stanley, Morgan &
Co., piobaibly the wealthiest bond
house in America, is, for the first
time, buying one or more of these
sets. The Securities Exchange Com.
mission is moving to Philadelphia
away from the socialistic atmosphere
of Washington. Consolidations of In-
vestment firms and reductions in
operating costs are once more, put-
ting these houses into black ink.
Which Wall Street
It is easy to criticize Wall Street.
It has- committed many .sins in the
past: • me say, however, that no
business is today transacted with

anmistice to. follow while peace
tenms are being discussed. Consider-
ing that Wall Street was far more
correct in its Japan forecast than
was Washington (note how the mar-
ket discounted this event), Wall
Street may be much nearer right
on the length of the war. T repeat:
Wall Street, has awful good "smell-
era."
Some Wall Sreet Rules

More than 100 cattlemen and farm-
ers are expected for the demonstra-
tion of ox warble and lice control
at Robert Foster's dipping vat on
Friday at 1:30 p. m., aocording to
County Agent. A. C. Pratt.
The dipping vat is located three
miles from Navasota on the Navasota-
Anderson highway, so no difficulty
will be encountered in finding the
place. m
"Rotenone, a product of cube or
derris root, which will be used in
controlling the ox warbles, has prov-
ed effective and is a safe insecti-
cide to use. It is not posonous to
warm blooded animals and eventual-
ly will replace ■ the arsenical. The
cost of rotenone and arsenic is about
the same.” Mr. Pratt remarked.
"Rotenone and sulphur, to be used
in controlling. cattle lice, has prov-
ed much more efficient for cattle Mee
than arsenic because it will kill
about six species of cattle lice
wlereas arsenic will get only two or
three.”
Anyone Interested is invited to at-
tend the demonstration, Mr. Pratt
said. "-A

300 Auto and Tractor

hundred automobile and tractor tires

here Tuesday night by an unidenti-
fied vandal, or vandals, who broke

Tey sense any change in the nation’s

haps their patience to study com-

some of us away from Wall Street.
They make many and big mistakes as
to what to buy or sell. But their
honest judgment as to when to buy
or sell is pretty good. Today they be-
lieve it is a wonderful time to buy
certain stocks.
What to Buy
For the first time since 1939, Wall
Street foresees a clear-cut British-
American victory. They know that
the U. S. now is 100 percent in the
war and that Hitler has passed his
peak of power. They believe that air.
planes and tanks are to decide the
length' of the war. They, therefore,
feel that, after the producing power
of the United States gets into full
swing, our planes and tanks, need-
