Incidentally, the mayor is now affixing his signature to such documents with a beautiful gold fountain pen, a birthday gift from friends.

FRED BAUM REMAINS AT PORT Word from Mrs. Fred Baum, who was detained at Ellis Island, is not very encouraging, although it is possible she may be permitted to enter the United States. Mrs. Baum arrived from Germany about two months ago, expecting to come immediately to Anaheim to join her husband, but, Germany's quota was filled with the last application ahead of hers. Mrs. Baum has been on Ellis island ever since while her relatives here are in communication with diplomats and officials. The latest news promises her admittance should some one post a $1000 bond for her, provided she stays on the island until July 15. Otherwise she must return to Germany.

The most encouraging feature was the way prices stood up in the face of profit taking which was visible during the greater part of the session. Offerings were generally well taken and at small concessions and trading was conducted with the same spirit of optimism that characterized transactions all week. Speculators for the decline selzer upon the let-up in constructive movement to apply pressure against various industrial groups, especially oils and steel, but their efforts failed to produce results. Railroad shares again formed the highlights in the speculative situation persistent rumors of consolidations of all kinds furnishing the incentive for the bullishness in Rock Island, Chicago Great Western and other low priced carriers. Buying spread to the dividend payers in the afternoon, the North-western group being particularly prominent. The overflow of investment demand was no doubt responsible for the strength in the seasoned dividend issues, both railroad and industrial. Call money renewed and lent at 2%. Bonds continued strong. Stock sales today 926,100 shares; bonds $24,783,000. GRAIN MARKET STEADY CHICAGO, June 13. — Grains closed unchanged to a shade higher today after withstanding a series of bear attacks.

SCHOOL LAW DECREE SALEM, Ore., June 13.—The state of Oregon, thru Governor Pierce and Atty. Gen. Van Winkle, served notice of appeal today to the U.S. supreme court from the decision of the federal district court in declaring the Oregon compulsory public school attendance bill unconstitutional and void. On plea of Hill Military Academy of Portland, and Society of Jesus and Mary, a Catholic school corporation, the lower court held the bill invalid and enjoined the state from enforcing the law, as passed by the voters. It provides that after September, 1926, all children in Oregon between the age of 5 and 16 years must attend the public schools of the state. COMMENDATION FOR SCHOOL MAN When J. A. Cranston, superintendent of schools at Santa Ana, called parents of high school students into mass meeting last week and revealed to them instances of asserted immoral conduct, he struck a cord of "Amen" with one Fullerton teacher. This was revealed at Cranston's office today, when a letter he received from the North-co teacher was disclosed. Though the name of the author was not given, the text of the message would denote, it appeared, that the writer was a woman. The letter follows: "Had we other men in school positions with your courage, there might be hope for the future, but either because they are incompetent or because they fear their jobs; school men cover up these very dangerous conditions and some of them hide crime and criminals in their midst." This letter, it was announced at his office, was only one of many Lincoln School Will Cost The new East Center at 12th school building will be completed at a cost of less than $80 even including furniture.

He said, however, that trouble encountered in Santa Ana high school was caused by about 3% of the students. Among this group, he said, were young married students, mostly girls. He made an "expose" of reports detailing specific occurrences at plunges, beach parties and elsewhere. H. Hoben, G. Beale M. Selover, W. Murray, Dr. Cochran and C.
