Puis Withdrawal pains struck like an epidemic at County Jail yesterday among the 41 persons snared in a valley-wide nar-eotics raid Thursday and Friday. At least six were in such pain that they were transferred to Ward the jail ward, at County Hospital for treatment, Vice Capt.

Robert I. Graefe of the sheriff's department reported. One of the six was a young woman who at the time of her arrest denied being "hooked," Graefe said. PRESSURE FOR, AGAINST Billboards All of those transferred to the hospital, Capt. Graefe said, were definitely addicted to heroin.

Several other prisoners arrested during the raid by State Narcotics Agents in cooperation with the Sheriff's Office and city police underwent various stages of withdrawal torment, Graefe said. Most of these, he said, had been through the anguish before and toughed it out in their jail cells. Of the six transferred to the hospital ward for treatment, Freeway its day yesterday its biggest reported, the woman kept brushing against him, but he thought little of it at the time and kept pointing out the way to the downtown area. Later, after they had gone, he said, he began thinking of the woman's strange behaviour and checked his hip pocket. Sure enough.

$100 in cash was miss ing, indicating, he said that his wallet had been picked and returned without his knowledge.

You know the market I mean, Wall Street.

That's a pretty big jump for a fellow like me who, because he knows land is the basis of most wealth, acquired a home, adequate insurance and a little hunk of real estate on the side but who will still, on occasion, draw to a four-card flush or an inside straight. But just yesterday I learned that with my two-bit poke, wouldn't be out of place in a stock broker's office. -I had, through the years, always walked timidly by the broker's office, scarcely glancing in. I was gripped by a sense of inferiority when circumstance threw me into the company of my more affluent friends who traded in the market. They talked a language I couldn't understand ups and downs by one fourth or three quarters, profit-taking and bear (downward) and bull (uptrend) markets.

They read the financial pages like I did the batting averages in the sports section. Now, that feeling of being second-rate is all gone. I belong, if you please, to that class of investors if I buy a few shares of something or other that is the backbone of the money market of the nation. Isn't that something? Finance and Coffee I learned all this over a cup of coffee. My host was Louis (Lou) R.

Aragon, a registered representative of Dean Witter members of the New York Stock Exchange, the Chicago Board of Trade and the Pacific Coast Stock Exchange. Lou buttonholed me as I walked by Dean Witter's offices at 435 4th inviting me to drop into the place I had always regarded as the local citadel of high finance and chat a while you know, pass the time of day, as we used to say. Our conversation naturally drifted around to Lou's business. Could I buy, I wanted to know, a few shares of modestly-priced stock, say $30 or $100 worth, just to get my feet wet, so to speak? Buy Any Amount Indeed, Lou replied, like anvbody else, can buy anything from one share to almost any amount But, Lou explained, it wouldn't be too good an investment for any purpose to buy in such small lots as the minimum brokerage fee of J6 would place a fairly big load on the investment to be overcome by earnings if I was to show a profit. If I were, on the other hand, to invest in stocks in an amount ranging from $500 to $5,000, the fee would be considerably less, percentage-wise, or from 1 to 3 (Continued on 5, Column 1) Stale Committee On Water Meets in Riverside Tomorrow State Sen.
