Vigorous Rebound of
Values In Closing Hour
NEW YORK. Aug. 18. (A. P.)
Conditions in the stock market yes
terdnv underwent some alteration
from their recent reactionary trend.
Numerous speculative issues establish
ed new low records for the year, but
these were recovered in the vigorous
rebound of the lust hour.
Apart from a favorable forecast of
Mexican Petroleum's earnings and
some activity in the steel trade, there
wn no soeeific news to account for
the sudden reversal. Technical con
ditions or an over-extension of the
shorts probably were accelerating fac
tors.
Prices were lower by 1 to 4 points
in the first half of the session. Bears
made capital of further dividend re
ductions and omissions and the reten
tion of the 6 per cent rate for call
money, that rate holding throughout
the day.
Oils were the outstanding features,
especially foreign issues. Prior to
uublication of Mexican Petroleum's
prospective financial returns, that
stock, as well as pan-American. Shell
Transport and Royal Dutch were un
der constant pressure.
Independent steels and secondary
euipments, which are dependent upon
the railroads for their sustenance,
also suffered variable setbacks with
motors, chemical, fertilizer and food
issues.
New York Airbrake was the one
stock to manifest little recuperative
nower declining 5 points. Sales
amounted to 475,000 shares.
A brisk rally in marks resulted In
buying for German account and intl.
mations that impending reparations
payments are likely to be anticipated
featured the foreign exchanges. Lon
don and most continental rates, not
ably Dutch bills, were inclined to re
act.
Trading in bonds were more diver
sified and a steadier tone ruled in the
more important domestic and foreign
issues. Liberty fourth 4 'As showed
especial strength. Total sales, par
value, 38,650,000.
TO GET RICH QUICK
is alriglit, but usually It is the other fellow who is
getting "The Riches".
Why risk your money in a scheme that vanishes
over night and leaves you discouraged and money -let?
Always question and thoroughly investigate the
safety of an investment Uiat promises sure and large
profits.
Keep your money in this strong bank, where it will
be safe from loss. Let it accumulate in an interest
yielding Savings Account, until you have enough for
a home, or a business or an education.
A Savings Account means "Ready Money" and yon
too can have such an account.

Bearish Relwrts On
Conditions Puts Wheat Down
CHICAGO, Aug. IS (A. P.) Un
favorable reports about general busi
ness conditions gave an advantage
yesterday to bears in the wheat mar
ket. Prices closed heavy 24c to 3c
net lower, with September $1.196 to
$1.19?4 and December $1.20 to $l.!l
Corn lost c to 7-8 Wlc, oats He to
tyc and provisions 15c to 5le.
Attention to trades in wheat cen-
! tered largely on official announce
ment that o.iiiu.uuo people are out oi
work in the United States. Federal
reserve board statements about fac
tors operating against business pro
gress were likewise given much notice,
and so, too, were fresh declines in the
New York stock market and in foreign
exchange. The bulls were further
handicapped by assertions that est!
mates of yesterday's export business
had been greatly exaggerated. On the
resulting breaks in wheat prices,
houses with eastern connections did a
good deal of buying. As a rule, how
ever, longs showed an Increased desire
to liquidate their holdings, and with
hears operating more extensively, ral
lies failed to last, notwithstanding
that country offerings were light.
Corn and oats descended lower than
at any time here tofore this season.
Demand was of only a scattering
character.
Sharp downturns In the provision
market were brought about by the
weakness of grain and by a decided
tumble in the value of hogs.

FORT COLLIN'S, Col., Aug. 18. (I.
N. S.) Declaring that there is dan
ger that the white race in America
may be driven from the land by Ja
panese, In the same manner as the
whites displaced the Red men, Pro
fessor Thomas Nixon Carver, Harvard
economist, made a plea her.e for re
striction of Japanese immigration in
to this country.
Trofessor Carver lectured here un
der the auspices of the summer school
of the Colorado Agricultural College
taking for his subject "International
Competition in Farm Products."
"The Indian, in most Instances, was
not driven off his land by force," Pro
fessor Carver said, "but sold his land
to the white man and moved, as the
lund was of greater value, economica
11 v to the energetic whites than to
the Indifferent Indians."
When one race can live so much
more cheaply than another that- it
can afford to pay more for the land
it will gradually acquire the land and
the other race will move off, accord
Ing to Professor Carver. "With this
condition already offering a problem
In California," he said, "there is noth
ing to prevent us going the way of the
Indian for the Japanese farmer can
do the same to the white farmer that
the whites did to the Indians years
ago and cultivate the land much more
economically thus forcing the whites
to move on.
"Something must be done immedi
ately to restrict Japanese immigra
tion," the professor concluded. "And
it is just as well to observe our 'line
fences," as wc can be more peaceable
neighbors if we do this." '
Professor Carver urged the neces
sity of an amicahie agreement be
tween the United States and Japan
that would restrict Immigration of
Japanese into this country.
BY HENRY W. KINNEY
(United Press Staff Correspondent.)
TOKYO, Aug. 18. When the Crown
Prince returns from his visit In Europe
he will be appointed regent of Japan.
This was the belief today of the
best Informed public men and Journal
ists, 'but as yet no whisper even has
been allowed to filter through into
print. No newspaper would dare to
discuss the matter, as it would mean
certain and instant suppression.
The Crown Prince is now of age,
according to Japanese count. Over a
year ago, when all 111 health of the
Emperor reached the stage where he
could no longer attend public func
tions, and when it became necessary
to have the Empress or the Crown
Prince receive ambassadors and per
form similar duties in his place, there
was some talk about appointment of a
regent, Init the Crown 1'rince was not
mentioned at the time, and the Im
perial Household Department prompt
ly denied the story.
Now, it is pointed out, the Crown
Prince is receiving the finishing
touches in his training as a future
sovereign by his visit in Europe, and
there wilt bo every reason for placing
him in the position as regent "Xrhcn hi
returns.
In the meantime the press satlafics
Itself with elaborate speculations with
regard to the movements of the Elder
Statesmen, particularly a long confer
ence whk-h Prince Yamagata and
Prince Saionjl recently had with the
Emperor. Most of the papers confined
themselves to the supposition that the
talk concerned itself with arrange
ments for the Crown Prince's return
and for his wedding.
Whether the Crown Prince is. In
fact, made regent immediately upon
his return to Japr.n or not, the public
looks forward towards great changes,
owing to his experience abroad. Great
satisfaction has been expressed at his
rubbing elbows with ordinary mortals
In England, France and elsewhere.
The mass of the people, as well as
many enlightened men of high rank,
look forward to a more democratic
turn of things.
