IB-A hand- ful of specialties which rose 1 to 3 or more points lent color to an otherwise drab stock market today. A few aviation shares advanced fractions to 2 points or so on buy- ing apparently based on the United States War Department's awarding of contracts for new combat planes. Other than these groups, and the mining issues, which gave up from 1 to 2 or more points on further decline in the price of silver, the general market was a flat affair. Measured by the Associated Press average of 60 stocks, the market closed at 53.7, unchanged from TIICSdBY. Activity in the above named sectors was instru- mental in lifting transactions to 1,701,745 shares from 1,412,790 the day before. Market observers gauged the trading in terms of the balance’ struck by advances and declines. The. former numbered 323, the latter 328. A total of 214 issues were unchanged at the close. The largest reduction in the price of imported bar silver at New York since May ii-thrcs cents an ounce to 55 3-4 cents- brought liquidation in the mining equities. U. S. Smclting finished down 2 1-2 at 98, while American Smelting at 56 3-4 and Cerro d:- Pasco at 51 7-8. were off 1 and 1 5-8, respectively. Anaconda at 27 1-8 and Kennecott at 28 3-4 boih fractionally higher.‘ Radio “B" Preferred leaped ahead to 92, highest price since its 1929 listing. and closed with a gain of 3 l-8 at 88 1-2. At 13 3-8, its high _for the day, the common reached its best price in three years. A. O. Smith led the upward surge of the specialties, gaining 3 points to close at 65 following an earlier high of 68 1-2. Others up 1 to 2 or more were Owens-Illinois. at 125 1-4, Armstrong Cork at 44 3-4. Cluett Peabody at 47 and Evans Products at 88 1-2. Practionaflosses predominated in the Canadian list. In this cate- gory were Distillers-Seagrsms. Hiram Walker, Canadian Indus- trial Alcohol, Dome Mines, Mc- Intyre-Poicupine, Lake Shore. Nip- issing, Canadian Marconi and In- ternational Hydro-Electric Pro- ferred. International Nickel alone was higher, gaining 1-8 of a point. R‘? IMSZING UP FATHER Ontario Judy's British Stand By League (C. P. By Guardian's Special Wire) 1 KITCI-IENER. Ont., Dec. 17-De- spits dL uragement. and lack of cooperation on the part of some of the world powers, Great Britain is boldly fighting to establish the real worth of the League of Na- tions as an instrument oi’ peace, Judge Joseph Wearing of London. Ont., declared here today. The Judge referred to the recent statment of‘ Father Charles E. Coughlin. Detroit's radio priest. that the League is “the illlgitimate child of the Treaty of Versailles" Father Coughlin, he said, must find it "disquieting" to rcmsmbcr that a President of the United States, Woodrow Wilson, ‘fathered ;he baby and that another Am- Upho Us erican, Prank Kellogg, played nurse to it. Great Britain, Judge Wearing saw as the mother of the League. ~ "As 1s the custom of the world, the mother of such c. child has ignominy heaped on her head, while the father ‘is ignored," the Judge declared. I-Ic added that from his experience on the bench. a nwther never deserts her child. “And the peopls of Great Brit- ain have made up their minds to bring” this now child of peace to maturity, no matter what the sac- rifice and shasne," His Honor said. “If the league fails, only one thing can be said-another child of peace has been led to cruci- flxion." Girl Who Started World Tour With $15 LONDON, Dec. 17-1- A twenty- two-year-old American girl left L0". Angeles Just under a year ago with a. steerage ticket to Japan and fif- teen dollars. Now she has reached London irf- tcr some remarkable experiences. She ls Gwen Von der Kik, a graduate of the Universl y of Soiztp- ' em Califomla. She tcld a news- paper rcpresentative the story of her self-supporting adventure. “Before 1 left Ca ifomia," she said, "I was teaching children to act for the screen. "In December last I bought a steerage ticket in a Japanese ship and left with $15 and a trunk of clothes. "I ad an upper berth in a long roo in which there were about 30 bunks and a long table. ‘My fel- low-passengers 91115150611 cf Japan- ese men, women, and children. “I was the only white girl.

"From Tokyo I went 500 miles to Kobe to take a Job as secretary to an Englishman. The journey there exhausted my funds. and I arrived penniless and “ meless. My em- ployer had meanwhile died.

They interest themselves only in their cufture and ignore public life. “My next place was Koren. I stayed there only a few days, than I went on to Siberia. "To get to Moscow I sold all my clothes, bought some cheap Russian garments, and dressed myself as a peasant girl. "There I lectured on the Japan- ese drama and taught American dancing. “I found the Russian women the most emancipated of any country 1 have visited. They hold positions oi responsibility and play an equal part in public life with the men. ‘They look for no petting and pampering from the men either. It struck me, however. that they have lost much,of feminine charm. “Their homes are not very clean and there seems generally to be r- domestic apathy. “The Finnish women seem to be just the opposite to the Russian women. They are gentle, charm- ing, and domesticated. Their homes are clean and their family life ser- ene. "From Finland I went to Scan- dinavia. There I met and was en-i tertained by the wife of the Amer- ican Minister. I found the Scan- dinavian woman to be the ideal .
