S. Baehe A Comparer Weekly Review says; The character of the stock market now prevailing’, gives little intimation of futures security price levels, but it ta being studied by business interests for some indications of what the in dustrial prospects may be. The stockmarket, as a forecaster of the trade conditions, cannot always be re lied upon. During the war, after long absences, we had halts and down ward movements similar to the pres ent one, which were followed by quite enormous increases in business and by renewed bull markets. After the war, in 1919, the same kind of a spring and summer reac tion occurred in the stock market, giving no forward indication of the excessive aetivitity in the fall, of both business and stocks. But therf, too, the forces of an enormous and abnormal inflation brought about the uprise. No such conditions prevail now, at least not to any appreciable1 extent, and the situation is ruled more nearly by comparative peace condi tions. Consequently the action of the stock market may have more significance as a prophecy of further slowing down in business. This, if it comes, will do something to clear up the im* possible situation in the labor market, and will be far better as & remedy than would have been a continuation of the furious business panp of the earlier months, which might have heen carried to a point where dis astrous collapse would have been the sequence.

Out of 27 Gobs Admitted to Annapolis Enlisted at Omaha [ dames Peterson 'Ver-itore 'Dorfch^ «| Two possible “future admirals" of the United States navy are con gratulating themselves that Dieut. Frederick Powers of the local re cruiting office persuaded them to en list last June. For they have passed the examina tions provided for enlisted men and will be admitted to the naval academy at Annapolis for a four-year course with all expenses paid by the govern ment and a good commission at the end. James Shadle Peterson, whose home is in Huron. S. D., was found by one of the recruiters near his natlve heath and told of the marvels of the navy. He took the “president's penny" snd signed up June 23. 1922. Since then he has been st the naval training school at San Francisco. Vernon Dortch came to Omaha from his home in Texas to get a job. The job wasn't all It was cracked up to be and, on east Douglas street, Dortch met a navy man who offered to give him a real job with good pay and a chance to rise. After a long talk with Lieut. Frederick Powers, Dortch de-ided to have a life on the ocean wave and signed on the dotted line, June in, 1922. He Is now on the t\ F. F. Texas. Both young men will proceed at Uncle Fain s expense to the naval academy. Present navy regulations provide that 100 young men tnay be selected from the navy personnel annually for admission to Annapolis. This year only ill passed the exam inations. And two of these were en listed at the Omaha navy' recruiting station. Only three other cities had two successful takers of the examina tion, and those cities were much larger than Omaha.
