Wall Street
New York, July 20 (U.R)
Stocks turned irregular today
after the announcement of the
attempt to assassinate Adolf
Hitler.
The market opened on a firm
er note and scored substantial
early gains under the leader
ship of Ralls before meeting
Drofit-taklng that eliminated tne
rise in many Instances ana
scaled gains sharply In most
others.
Wall Street experts viewed
the early rise, in the face of
noramlly bearish news such as
the formation of a new cabinet
in Japan, as a direct reflection
of the "good feeling" resulting
from lessened nervous tension.
Late in the session steel
shares were slightly lower
while In the rails small gains
were cared in almost every
case. Pere Marquette Preferred
showed a loss of more than a
point.
Uiemicais wore irregular.

they will be given preference
and that agricultural land will
be disposed of in family sized
farms.

bids, hold a public auction or

Some of us can remember the days when a dry-goods cleric would
measure ribbon by her arm's length (you got your money's worth when
the clerk was long-armed!) nowadays, ribbon is measured by the
standard 36-inch yard! The modern way of measuring value in fresh
fruits and vegetables is just as accurate: pricing by the 16-ounce pound
that's the Safeway methodl

Even the) pastry can be made on an easy summer-time
schedule. Here's a suggestion: make a
double batch of your favorite pastry recipe, put
ting it together in the "cool of the morning.'
What you don't use immediately can be left dry,
or moistened and wrapped in waxed paper, before
placing it in the refrigerator. It's no more work
than making a single batch, and the next time
.... there's the pastry all ready to use for tarts
or turnovers or other fresh fruit delicacies!
