Stocks Score Third
Best Gain of Year
New York (W Stocks scored
their third best gain of 1957
in an active session today.
At 2 p.m. the industrial aver
age showed a rise of 8.40 points.
Last Friday it rose 11.41 points
on the cut in the discount rate,
The other big day of 1957, was
on Oct.' 23 when the average
soared 17.34 points, its best daily
gain since Nov. 14, 1929.
Today's rise which spread
throughout the market added
more than three billion dollars
to the value of listed issues.
Railroad issues joined the rise,
unwilling to drop a second time
on a poor car loadings report.
Steels ruled strong. Allied Chem
ical and Du Pont each rose more
than 3 in the chemicals. Ameri-

Unander Asks Board
To Lower Area Rates
Salem (IP) ,State Treasurer
Sig Unander today asked the
federal reserve board to lower
the rediscount rate in the 12th
federal reserve district. ,
In a wire to Board Chairman
William McChesney Martin Jr.,
Unander said "economic condi
tions in the 12 th federal reserve
district and unsatisfactory con
ditions in the timber industry
in Oregon apparently justify
lowering the rediscount rate in
the district."
The 12th district includes west
ern states. Last week, the re
discount rate was lowered in
four eastern districts.

OIL ROYALTIES
UNBELIEVABLE PROFIT8! NO
EXPERIENCE NECESSARY! Under
a Federal Ruling, Oil Companies
have been reaping profits from
public lands for years. You, too,
can profit from this little known
opportunity. These speculative
leases are unusually attractive be
cause of the Booming Area in
which they are located. Utah's in
credible discoveries have led to
descriptions of the Fabulous Para
dox Basin as one of the LARGEST
POTENTIAL OIL RESERVOIRS in
the country. A total investment of
only $150 (time payments, if de
sired) has a potential pay-off in
Royalties which is nothing short
of fantastic.
