To
the
people
of
Canada,
Gen.
Jan
Smuts,
former
premier
oi
boutn
Ainca,
speaking
here
last
night,
brought
a
message
of
unity,
liberty
and
nationhood
which
had
been
achievod
by
the
Dominion
of
the
British
Empire.
There
was
another
task,
however,
which
remained
to
be
undertaken,
he
declared.
That
task
was
to
give
form
and
substance
to
the
unity
in
that
great
group
which
was
known
as
the
British
commonwealth
of
nations.

famous

floor,
says
the
stock
market
is
a
fair
institution
for
investors
who
use
intelligence
in
making
their
purchases.
The
name
of
Cutten
has
been
cloaelv
linked
with
that
of
the
Fishers
of
Detroit
and
other
large
traders
who
have
taken
the
long
side
of
Westlnghouse,
United

Steel
Baldwin,
Montgomery
Ward
and
International
Harvester,
profiting
when
the
market
was
booming.
He
is
averse
to
publicity
and
takes
no
part
in
the
activities
of
a
dozen
or
more
clubs
to
which
he
belongs.
He
pavs
the
highest
income
tax
in
the
Chicago
area
and
is
credited
with
having
taken
$10,000,000
out
of
the
market
in
a
single
man-
Two

"The
stock
market
today
is
a

Institution.
Everybody
has
a
chance
except
those
who
do
not
use
their
heads.
A
man
can't
expect
to
make
money
if
he
buys
without
the
faintest
knowledge
of

Cutten
is
small,
lean,
trim,
with
a
prominent

His
scarce

is

and
his

The
