Power and Light Company stocks gain had the benefit not only of good current earning statements but of the outlook for reduced excess profits taxes and costs when the world conflict is concluded. Political hopes also had something to do with the return to popularity of this section. The automotive group again contended with cashing in by those who had sizable profits in several of these issues selling under $10. The argument was that, even if half the reports and rumors of mergers and other bullish ideas became actualities, these securities may have been overbought. Rails Pace Gains In Bond Market NEW YORK, Aug.

10 iJP). With scattered exceptions, the bond market showed modest improvement today under a broadened demand for the low to medium priced rails. The market remained under the handicap of light trading, however, and only in rare instances did changes exceed fractions on either side. A few new highs for recent years were posted among the investment rated industrials and utilities. The problem of institutional investors in finding a place to put their money to work at any kind of return was further emphasized by action of the Chicago Union Station in asking permission to replace outstanding 3 3-4 per cent bonds -with still lower interest bearing securities.

Listed bonds making some progress included those of the New Haven, Northern Pacific, Philadelphia St. Louis-San Francisco Railway, Schenley Distillers, South-em Pacific, Western Maryland, American Foreign Power and American Telephone. Changes in foreign dollar bonds were small. Federal Court Rules Against 'Polo Kola' DETROIT, Aug. 10.

"Polo as a beverage brand name was adjudged an infrinsement of the trade-mark "Coca-Cola'' here today by a decree of the U. S. District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan, Southern Division. The order of Judge Arthur F. Lederle overruled defenses of Alex Belinsky trading as Igloo Syrup Company, which was held guilty of unfair competition.

The court perpetually enjoined the use of 'Polo Kola' or any other colorable imitation" of "Coca-Cola" and further enjoined the defendant from giving its merchandise "a color imitating or resembling the color of the plaintiff's product" unless the alternative product "reaches the ultimate consumer in a distinctive package" and under a name "not confusingly similar to 'Coca-Cola or any part thereof." The ruling requires the destruction of any materials bearing the name "Polo Kola" and cancellation of state and federal registrations cf that title. Baltimore Livestock BALTIMORE.
