Celtic folk stories, said Rhys, en-d

from Wales. Then, with the Nor- t
man invasion of England, in the 1
11th century, these folk tales cameA
back into the Welch again, this e
time with an added coating of n
French courtly life. t
The common tendency in these1
tales was to bring characters and
events closer to the people by
having certain events happen in
Wales. Rhys cited the example
that in one story Christ was cruci-
field on a Welch hillside.
Rhys read excerpts from the
story of Sir Percival as an illus-
tration of the Welch folk tale. In-
to this story much of the French
coloring enters. Rhys also related
the plots of several other stories:
"fool stories" and curious stories
of transformations of men and wo-
men ito birds and beasts.
"Romance is not a thing of

KENOSHA, Wis., Oct. 30.-The
federal government, the countyc
and the Goodrich Steamship Co., t
joined today in an investigation o
into the sinking of the steamshipa
Wisconsin four miles off this port E
Tuesday with the loss of at least b
nine lines. -
Fred J. Meno, supervising inspec-
tor of the federal steamship inspec-
tion office of Detroit, had charge t
of the inquiry for the government. ,
He said he would begin at once the"
questioning of witnesses.
A prelimnary survey TuesdayL
might gave rise to several ques-t
tions, answers to which may help
in placing responsibility for the
wreck. It was pointed out that the
boat was less than an nour outt
from Kenosha harbor when it first
began radioing distress signals;{
there were lifeboats and life pre-
servers for all, and the radio was
working up to a short time before
the vessel was abandoned.
As near as officials were able
to state, the Wisconsin carried a
crew of 70 men and 4 passengers.

those of Capt. Douglas Morrison

The second casualty among bro-
rage houses took place today
hen the firm of Lynch & Co. was
spended from the New York
urb Exchange for failure to meet:

2y. Neither firm was engaged in
general commission business.
Reassuring statements from lead-
g bankers overnight coupled with
me declaration of extra dividends.
$1 each on U. S. Steel common
nd American Can, and an advance
f $1 in the annual dividends on
ue latter, helped to revive onfl-
ence in the market. Strong buying
upport also was provided by pow-

American Telephone was one of
he leaders of the rally, quickly
aring $27 a share to $231. East-

Nearly all the leading brokerage

Whereas a few weeks ago many
tocks were4 selling on a yield basis

Bond and Share opened with a
block of 20,000 shares at $7012, up
$10.62.
The rally gained momentum as
the session progressed and initial
gains were generally extended be-
fore the end of the first half hour.
United States Steel common quick-
ly extended its gain to $7.25 by
touching $181.25.
A group of bankers who have
been co-operating in efforts to
stabilize the market announced
through their spokesman, Thomas

that they would continue their ef-

After a meeting last night, Mr.

WASHINGTON, D. C., Oct. 30.-
Disagreement among Republican s
leaders on whether the Senate
should proceed with debate on the E
tariff bill without a recess before
the regular December session was
in evidence at the Capitol today;
after informal conference of fac-
tional chiefs.
Chairman Smott of the finance
committee, said he intended to go
ahead with consideration of a re-
vision measure tomorrow where the
Senate left off yesterday when it
adjourned out of respect to the late
Senator Burton. He had heard of
no movement being afoot to take a
recess about the middle of Novem-
ber.
Other old guard Republicans let
