STEVENSON " A the annual meetings of the great corporations, many of which are held at this time ot year, there are always present holders of a few blocks of sharls -- and in many instances, holders of Only one share each. With various proxy holders casting thousands of votes, their voice in the proceedings means nothing. Yet they turn out in numbers. Often, they are as fully cognizant of the affairs of the company as-^he officers themselves and always they are given due considera^ tion by the officers and board members. Some of course come to make as much trouble as possible. Others, even though they are decidedly in the minority, are generally interested. With still others, it is a diversion. Retired from actual business, they buy few shares here and there and attending the meetings gives them\ something to do-- a feeling, at least, that they are still taking parti in the business of th^, country. \ • - S-l C NOTICE Noyha^P ti^hd>y given that at a re#6far annual meting of the stockholders of Tire West McHenry State Bank, McHenry (P.

By Order of the Board of Directors. 37-3 It's a leap from the financial center up to Columbus circle and from business to soap-^ox orators, but last night I happened to stop long enough to hear a "ragged, whiskered individual declare that business of all kinds was iniquitous. So far as I could learn, he didn't have any remedy for existingconditions he was sure that they should ed. What I started to say, however, was that at Columbus circle there are traffic signs directing vehicles, to "right" and "left. Curiously, the groups seem to divide with those signs, those who support the government standing near the " r i g h t " s i g n s a n d t h e r e d s a n d others moving over to the "left." Consistent observers hold that it always is that way, so it must be by choice and not niere chance. * Addicts dfrnarijuaria cigarettes ("reefers," "muggles," "good-' butts," or in Harlem; "Mary Warners") are having trouble in obtaining supplies.-' The cigarettes, deadly in their effects, formerly sold at a dime each or three for a quarter, with a heavy Broadway demand. The price now is 50 cents each and many peddlers have retired not only because of difficulty in obtaining stocks but because tl\e government has taken a hand in ^ the matter along with the police narcotic squad. Dealers and peddlers have been retired for periods ranging from a year up. There are said to be 15,000 narcotic addicts in New York city. How many are "Mary Warner" addicts is not known. But prior to this fall, reports have it that the use of them was spreading. - * , * ' * ' Behind the acute shortage is months of activity on the "part of the narcotic squad, aided by the sanitary division of the Works Progress administration. Marijuana is a Mexican weed but it grows anywhere. So it was extensively cultivated in open spaces in Queens, Brooklyn and the Bronx. As the plants grow four feet high, they are easy to spot. Whenever encountered, the WPA men rooted them up. It is estimated that they destroyed in all half a million pounds with a retail value of about $9,000,000. i ^ V . • • • • « • Harold Sherman told me about an incident on Forty^tourth §treet near the City club. A pedestrian stopped at a stand and bought a big red apple. Stepping to the curb, he took just one bite when the apple was yanked from his hand. Looking behind him, he saw it being reduced to pulp in the mouth of \he steed of a mounted policeman. "Arrest that horse!" he shouted. "He's a thief." The. officer explained that, the horse was so accustomed to "apple gifts he looked on an apple in a man's hand as his own property. "I withdraw the charge," said thfe loser, regarding the horse intently. "He's having such a good time with that apple, he's welcome to it." • » * The proprietor- of one of those little neighborhood shops that seem to be open at all hours of the day and night was faced with a problem --a 10 per cent increase in rent. As that would just about take the profits out of the business, much floor walking ensued. Finally he reached the answer--he bought the building and raised all rents except his own. • C Bell Syndicate.--WNU Service.
