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.

A Reputation for
Fair Prices
By EARL WHITLOCK
Hardly a week goes by with
out some patron exclaiming,
"Well, really, I had no idea that
such a beautiul service as this
could be bought for so little."
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

CHICAGO, April 21 VPy The
wheat market today resumed
the slow retreat which began
with the Balkan invasion. 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

BOSTON, April 21 (AP-US
DA) New business was very
slow today in the Boston wool
market. Only a few inquiries
were being received. These
were mostly for fine original
bag territory wools, the three
eighths and quarter-blood grades
of fleeces, and various grades
of South American wools. The
lack of offerings of three-eighths
and quarter-blood fleece wools
was stimulating Inquiries for
similar grade spot South Amer
ican wools. Quotations on do
mestic and foreign wools were
unchanged, compared with the
close of last week.

pnlgn Is Mrs. Robert Hart, and
Mrs. Malir Reymert In charge,
of the open house to which theW'
enllro public is invited. . ..
In connection with the Early
Diagnosis, R. Paul Roberts, presi
dent of tho health association, -points
out that tuberculoid ,
among persons over 80 yean of
age constitutes one of the large :
est public health problems In .
this country.
"For many yean. It wai eonv
monly believed that persons over
80 were Immune to tuberculosis,
This Is not true," said Roberts. .
"But even new the prevalence
of the disease among elderly per
sons is not generally realized.
Many Instances of tuberculous In
fection In children may be traced
directly to contact wits grandpsr .
ents who are not even aware,
they have the disease. They call
it bronchitis or asthma,"
Roberts emphasised that the ;
anti-tuberculosis campaign etnr.t
not afford to neglect this part- .
of the population. fj')
