CHANGE BUS ZONE SIGN POSITION Ordered Removed Further South From North Wyoming Street Establishment. A "No Parking--Bus Zone" sign that was placed near the corner of Wyoming and Spruce street, in front of the Majestic cigar store two days ago, was ordered removed by the city officials yesterday and replaced further south on Wyoming street and in front of the windows along the side of the Hub clothing store, In the place of the bus zone sign there was placed by the officials a "15 Minute Parking" sign, permitting parking in that section for the transaction of business in stores in that immediate vicinity.

The merchants of North Wyoming street protested some time ago to city council and Mayor Beisel because their customers were not permitted to park: their cars in front of the business houses and the matter was corrected by the 15 minute parking PRESIDENT AT OLD EXERCISES: Thud of Medicine Ball Heard Again Behind Hedges of White House Lawn. WASHINGTON, Nov. 19. (P) The end of a pound medicine ball is being heard once more on these chill mornings behind the high hedges of the White House south lawn, President Hoover has resumed his early morning exercise where it was interrupted by western campaign trips, determined, in the words of his physician, to "keep fit for the demands of his remaining months in the presidency." Dr. Joel T.

Boone, the White House physician, today pronounced the chief executive "rested up from the campaign and now in his normal physical condition." Dr. Boone said "the president's, nervous system now is relaxed," adding: "It is typical of him to look forward not back." STEVENS CASE TO BE TRIED HERE Sub-district Officials Rule Interpretaton of President Lewis is Indefinite. The case against David J. Stevens of Lansford, secretary-treasurer of the sub-district of District 7 of the United Mine Workers to show cause why he should not be removed from office is to be tried here before a meeting of the district executive Joard but Michael Hartneady, president of the union announced today that he had not yet determined on a date. Stevens is charged with holding a position as a member of the state auditor general's office staff and this is against the constitution of the United Mine Workers, which forbids a member holding both a union office and a state position.

Stevens was tried before the subdistrict officials last night at Lansford. The officials in charge stated that the interpretation of John L. Lewis, international president, on international constitution was in favor of Stevens stating that he could hold both positions without any violation on his part. The sub-district officials decided however that the document received from President Lewis was indefinite and as a result they decided to submit, the matter to the district board. If 3 decision is not reached before the Hazleton body the case will be ferred to the International Board.

When called to trial before the sub-district board some time ago, raised the question of the basis of the constitution and contended that as he held a minor office in the state organization he did not come within the provision of the union's basic law and could hold the two posts. The one he holds with the state is appointive and not elective. It deals with the collection of money under the department of Wants Parts of Three States. ST. JOHN'S, Quebec, Nov.

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 19. (P)- The House Committee of campaign expenditures, its records filled with accusations of irregularities in last week's Pennsylvania elections, today focused the searchlight of quiry on Delaware. Moving on to Wilmington, the Congressional investigators delved into allegations of illegal practices in the Delaware Republican primary of September 10, including assertions that votes had been purchased in a number of places. They concluded a two-day Pennsylvania hearing after they had been informed by S.

Davis Wilson, chairman of the Roosevelt Independent State Committee, that contests would be filed for the seats of ten Republican representatives elected in Philadelphia and adjoining districts on November 8. Rep. Heartsill Ragon, Arkansas Democrat, chairman of the committee, said that complaints filed against the election of the 10 representatives would be taken under consideration and that the committee would decide later the question of returning to reopen the investigation. Testimony heard yesterday, by the committee included assertions a Bucks County Democratic leader that former U. S.

Senator Joseph R. Grundy had "bought" the election for Rep. Henry W. Watson, Repablican; and by other witnesses ate ONES of Beaver College had voted in Montgomery County, that 100,000 Philadelphia voters had been given illegal assistance, and that a Philadelphia Republican ward leader has used false Ku Klux Klan cards to cut down the vote for Governor Roosevelt. Under examination by Wilson, still other witnesses testified that ballots cast for Democratic candidates in a number of cases were declared void and not counted because of "extra but that no such disposition was made of any Republican-marked ballots.

Contests against the ten representatives, Wilson announced, probably will be filed with the House elections committee today. Bad Driving Conditions.

DETAIN HEIR OF TOWER MILLIONS Descendant of Man Who Owned Beaver Brook Coal Lands Stopped by Officials. Dispatches from Philadelphia interest tell, of an incident which to county residents inasmuch as it concerns a grand-nephew of the late Ambassador Charlemagne Tower, many years ago a prominent coal operator in this section, whose estate owns the Beaver Brook coal lands and for whom the town of Tower City was named. This grand-nephew, Count Hugues de Borchgrave d'Altena, a Belgian nobleman, had the unpleasat experience of being detained for six hours at Ellis Island because he had not sufficient cash on his person to furnish $500 bond. He was arriving in Phila.

on a visit to his great-uncle, Earl P. Putnam and the immigration authorities would not take his word for it that he would not become public charge until he got in touch with his bankers and they posted a $500 bond. The count, who is 25, speaks perfect English and is to remain in this country for six months, going to the West Coast during that time. He admits he has no profession, but says that he plays a good game of bridge and golf. BOOTLEG CREAM RIVALS WHISKEY: Washington Health Officer to Get After Shippers Who Dont Comply With Regulations.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 19. (AP) William C. Fowler, health officer, says whiskey bootleggers in the District of Columbia, have a sturdy rival in bootleggers of cream. Profits of the "cream bootleggers," Fowler reports, probably are greater.

than those who deal with liquors and he intends to arrest all he can catch with the goods. Under a district, law, cream for use in making ice cream can be sold in the capital without inspection, provided it bears a certificate from the state of origin. A 10-gallon can is $8 cheaper than locally tested cream. Now the health department has discovered that cream coming in under this guise is being diverged into restaurants, bakeries and other places for use just as if it had met the department's stringent requirements.

19. (AP)-The stock market again found it a little easier to advance than to decline today, but speculative enthasiasm was at low ebb. The list drifted in a narrow range during the earlier trading, but stiffened in the last hour, with several issues rising, about 1 to more than 2 points, turnover for the twohour session, however, was only about 400,000 shares. The closing tone was firm. The ability of the list to ignore a drop of 51,290 cars in the weekly report of freight carloadings, the largest for any week since the period including the Labor Day holiday, evidently prompted short covering in the late dealings.

News of a character to influence the market was meagre, although week-end trade and business surveys indicated that the autumn improvement was being fairly well r. intained, in view of the normal seasonal tendency at this time. With the government taking up such matters as war debts and the federal budget, however, Wall Street appeared to be taking a watchful waiting attitude. Such stocks as American Can, American Telephone, Santa Fe and Union Pacific pushed up about 2 points and Case made an exceptional gain of about 3. U.

S. Steel and Consolidated Gas were among issues up a point or It was the first this week Stime that the list had managed to close on the crest of a moderate rally. As measured by price averages, the list last moderataly, during the week, but throughout the period, movements had been of a rather indecisive character. The market appeared to have been left largely in the hands of professionals, and their efforts to whip up a little interest here and there attracted no following. Today's upturn was restricted largely to active trading favorites which pre- sumably harbored substantial short positions.

The October foreign trade figures showed the third successive increase in both exports and imports since the low of year registered in July. The gains, however, have not been large enough to stir any enthusiasm. Totals were still well under a year ago. Commodities moved somewhat uncertainly, with cotton futures losing 45 to 55 cents a bale. In foreign exchanges, sterling lost about a cent, tainty over situation, Most possibly reflecting, further uncerof the continental gold currencies, however, were firm.
