PACE STX April t., 1041 "Profit-Sharing' 1 F AS S S NEW YORK. Apri' 21 (P) The stock market today looked as though it was pretty well "sold out" but maty potential buyers again were kept in the waiting column by the pessimis tic tenor of the wai news. The turnover of approximate ly 400,000 shares wis helped by two 200,000-share b'ocks of Commonwealth and Southern, unchanged at I That the market may have done a lot of discounting of un- palatable foreign happenings was thought to have attracted bidding. While business progress was viewed as fairly satisfactory, tax and labor worries remained as speculative handicaps.

Now statements of this sort naturally make me feel pretty nappy. Because I have always felt that, unless I could create the most beauti ful Funeral Service AND do it for less, I was falling down on my aims. You see, al most anyone could create a superlative Funeral Service. The superb casket designs put out by the manufacturers, plus the DanKs of flowers sent by friends, would take care of that. And almost anyone could furnish an inexpensive Funeral Service. That's merely a matter of sup plying an inexpensive casket. But to combine the two to furnish richness and distinction and beauty and to do it for the lowest possible price, there's a task to test one. But It is a task to which I have devoted myself for years. And clients are pleased with the economy which results. The years behind this firm, years during which we have satis factorily served rich and poor and middle class families, give you assurance that your price needs will be properly appreci ated and met! Next Monday Mr. Whitlock of the Earl Whitlock Funeral Home will comment on Home Perils.-!

Loss es of more than a cent at times carried prices to levels 4 to 5 cents below the highs reached about two weeks ago. War news, weakness of se curities and failure of tempera tures in the southwest to fall as low as had been expected Saturday were largely respon sible for the selling. Buying which stimulated a recovery of about half the loss was associ ated with heavy overseas ship ments of wheat and flour from North America and reports that Spain was after more Argen tine grain.
