JUNKIN RESIGNED PRESI DENCY OF SOUTHERN COLLEGE AND LEFT SOUTH BEHIND HIM, JUNE 20, 1861 Reverend, George Junkin was of Scotch descent, the son of an officer in the Revolutionary War.

He was foom near Carlisle, November 1, 1790. He was graduated from Jeffer son, present Washington and Jeffer eon college, in 1S13, and studied theology. In 1819 he became pastor of the Associate Reformed church in Mil ton, where he was active in es tablishing the Milton academy, and in 1828 29 edited the: "Religious Farmer." In 1822; with the body of his church, he entered the Presby terian church. Then the learned clergyman be came an active educator. He was principal of the Manual acad emy, in Germantown, in 1830, and two years later founded and became first president of Lafayette college.

From 1841 to 1844 he was president of Miami university, Oxford, O. He remained there only three years, as he was an outspoken upholder of slavery, and the abolition sentiment surrounding him was too strong. John C. Calhoun wrote that the best defense of southern slavery he ever read was Dr. Junkin's speech before the Presbyterian Synod of Cincinnati.

Lafayette, Here I Am! He returned to Lafayette college in 1845 as its president a second time. From 1848 till 1861 he was the seventh president of Washington college, now Washington and Lee university, of Lexington, Va. Dr. Junkin and his family were happy in their Virginia home. Here his daughter, Margaret, was married to Major J.

T. L. Preston, of vir gima, and she became famous as the "Poetess Laureate of the South an other daughter, Eleanor, became the wife of Thomas J. Stonewall Jackson, the dashing general of the Confederacy, who lived in the Junkin home. The old patriot sympathized ardently with the south, but, not believing in state rights, he could not join in the secession movement.

He used all his to maintain the union, sacrificing considerable property, and even having a divided family. Two daughters were wedded to officers and one son and officer of the Confederate army, while one daughter was loyal to the north, and one on became an officer in the Union army. This was more than the old "Cov enantor" could bear, so one morning he wrote his resignation as president of the college; and ordered a wagon and the family carriage. In the former he placed such furniture and personal belongings as he desired to retain, and he and his loyal daughter, with their hand baggage, mounted the awaiting carriage. Shuns Sunny South They started for Philadelphia, and when the Mason and Dixon Lino'' was reached, on June 20, the teams were halted and thewagon and carriage unloaded.

Amer ican investments In foreign countries at the end of 1926 reached a total of approximately thirteen billion dol lars, exclusive of the political or war debts, according to. a report by Dr. Max Winkler, vice president ot Bert ron, Griscom and company, bankers, published today by the information service of the Foreign Policy associa tion.

"American funds were an important factor in the defeat of the central powers during the war and an equally important factor their rehaointa tion," Dr. Winkler said. "American money helped rebuild Japan after the disaster in the fall of America has loaned money to European and Eatin American countries for public improvements and for private, com mercial and industrial developments." Wall Street Review By The Associated Press NEW YORK, luiie 19 (P) Varying reports on conditions last gave the American business chart a rather checkered appearance, with the pi cipal curve toward further improvement In the general situation.

At this season of the year, when practically all lines may be expected normally to show material recessions, and in practically no instance was there any symptom of a marked slump. The steel trade's seasonal decline con tinued very gradually, and current de mand was running rather above expectations. There was some softening in a few products, but on the whole price held up well. Output for the year so far was.stil somewhat ahead of that for the same period of 1926. Cavloadinsg for the week ended June 4 declined sharply from the week before and the related period of the preecding year; Much ot this falling off, however, was attributed to the Memorial Day holiday and while the aggregate fell under the million car mark for the first time in several weeks, the drop was not considered particularly marked.

The corresponding wee oi 6 aid not in elude a holiday. Sales of automobiles were reported slower, partly in reflection of the seasonal easing off in demand, and partly due to hesitancy created by the an nouncement of an impending ew Ford model. Manufacturers as a rule were optimistic regard the outlook for the later months or the summer, wnen an expansion of sales comparable with last year was freely predicted. Oil was still tne sick man or busi ness. Seminole Field to flirt with the new crude oil production records, and the completion of at least one new well, showed an extension of the pool.

Remarks of hich authorities in the petroleum industry to the effect that overproduction is rapidly becoming a worm proDiem gave added color to the seriousness of the situation. Tire and rubber manufacturers were adversly affected by a sharp slump in crude rubber prices, which it was feared might lead to inventory troubles. The $40,000,000 American rubber pool, formed last December by leading motor and tire interests, was extended for 8 months from August 1, when it would have expired automatically, and this gave rise to hope that some of the difficulty might be overcome. Cotton consumption appeared on the up grade with increasing momentum, and textiles as a whole were attended by an improved outlook. Retail sales quickened, but buying power, as In weeks before, was somewhat curtailed by condtions among residents of flooded areas of the Mississippi valley.

Crops were again influenced by the weather, corn planting in the middle west is far less advanced than any recent year, winter wheat harvesting lias begun in some sections. Export demand continued in good volume and princes showed only nominal changes from those of last week end. Cattle prices, however, improved, heavy beef cattle selling at the highest figure of the year. Credit conditions were quite easy and money was plentiful. Bank clearings fell a little under the preceding week, but gained approximately 7 per cent over the corresponding week of last year.

Check payments were larger in aggregate than either last week or the same week of 1926. HAMBURG COUPLE SPEND HONEYMOON AT SHRINE MEETING 'HAMBURG, June 19. Married by Rev. R. E.

Kern Saturday, June 11, Charles J. Tobias and H. Annabel Matten spent their first honeymoon week at Atlantic City attending the Shrine convention. The wedding took place at the home of the bride's sister, Ira L. Fridirici, at Or wlgsburg.

The couple will be at home after July 15 in their apartment in the new building of the Hamburg lumber yard, at State and Second streets, the bridegroom being manager of the lumber company. The bride was secretary to the purchasing engineer of the Metropolitan Edison at Reading. On Wednesday afternoon at the Hay Market U. S. Department of Agriculture (Reported by United States Depart ment of Agriculture, Bureau of Agricultural Economics WASHINGTON, D.

June 19. nay mantels were generally quiet with light receipts and limited de mand during the week ending June 18, according to the Weekly Hay Market Review of the United States Department of Agriculture. Meadows and pastures continued good in the north central and northeastern states while considerable improvement was reported in the condition of pastures In the southeast and southwest as a result of recent rain3 in those territories. markets were quiet and demand was limited. Receipts were generally light and most of the offerings were of common to ordinary hay.

Top grades which were scarce were In active demand. A falling off in southern orders caused a dull market at Cincinnati but prices held steady although they were too low to attract country shipments. Arrivals at Chicago were principally No. 8 hay although a few scattered cars of top grade hay from northern Michigan were selling at premiums. Only small quantities of Wisconsin hay were received at Minneapolis and prices at this market were weak and irregular.

A fair demand for timothy is reported in the Yakima Valley with No. 1 quoted at Cut Alfalfa in Yakima Harvesting of the first cuttinsr of alfalfa is in progress in the Yakima valley with the cron only about rfS' per cent, of normal as a result of the continued cool weather durinsr the growing period. Demand in this territory was slackening somewhat and prices to growers of $14 $15 per ton were slightly below previous quotations. The Sacramento market con tinued very active with sharp price advances in some sections. Unfavor able crop reports from adjoining states ana tuitner quarantine from Nevada were strengthening factors in this market.

The Los Angeles hay market was steady with increasing demand. Growers in this area ap peared inclined to hold for higher prices. Prospects for the coming crop in tins area were good and the weather was reported to be ideal for harvesting. Considerable hay was arriving at this point by truck. Third cutting of alfalfa was in progress near Phoenix, Arizona, with all hay of good quality moving readily and none going into storage.

Most of the first and second cuttings have been disposed of, except for small quanti ties or poor quality now in warehouses. The Yuma hay crop is being allowed to seed and very little is now being cut. Heavy shipping will not tjegin until November. Middlewestern alfalfa markets wore dull, with receipts light and slack de mand, Kansas City dairies and re tailers were fair buyers of very leafy hay at premiums of from $2 to $4 over ordinary grades. Shipping de mand was very light and mostly for the Red Cross in the flooded districts of the South.

Mill buying was very light. Prairie demand was unusually light with only a few scattered orders and army contracts furnishing the outlet. The first of the new crop hay ar iivd at Kansas Pilv hut was tnnp and in poor condition!

CURB' MARKET NEW YORK, June 19 (P) Price move ments in the curb market last week were highly irregulafa with the mam trend toward lower ground. There were a number of sharp breaks in sonic shares, while others moved briskly upward.

Group movements were well con certed on the whole, although mixed trends were shown by utility and pipe line shares. Selective buying was in evidence in many instances. American Road Ma chine doubled its value, touching 10Vi. and closed the week only a little below that figure. Prairie Pipe Line moved up steadily to a new record high, with a net gain of 13.

Oils advanced despite pessimist ic views of the over production of crude. Motor sales sagged, but accessories were well supported. Tires were reactionary on the slump of crude rubber prices. although Goodyear was an exception. Financial stocks which have been booming for several weeks, turned downward, partly on profit taking.

Sugar, publishing house, retail store and ailroad shares were included in the heavy issues. Among securities given good support were those connected with the buying trade, amusements and tobaccos. Celanese Corporation was conspicuous among soft spots, losing 12 points. At one time the stock sold down as low as 2S4, an extreme drop of 23. parsonage, Rev.
