A special commission of ulema (body of the Moslem doctors of law who interpret the Koran) has strongly objected to the restrictions, not only because they are contrary to Mohammedan law, but the commission believes they are socially and morally harmful Their commissioners say that God willed polygamy, which offers incaleuable benefits. They point out that despite ita existence there are a great number of unmarried women in Egypt, and that if the restrictions are imposed their number is bound to increase.

Record production and receding price levels tell the story of the bituminous markets of the country as the day set for the suspension of production in the central competitive field draws nearer. Evidence of consumer anxiety is not to be had. The soft mines continue to pour out tonnage at a rate which promises to place stockpiles of the consumers on April 1st at the highest point in history. Eighty million tons has become a conservative estimate. Production during the week ended March 12th was estimated by the bureau of mines at 13,800,000 tons the largest output for any week this year. The effect of the heavy production upon price levels is seen in a further decline in index of spot bituminous prices. On March 21st the index number was 169, and the corresponding weighted average price was $2.05, a decline of two points and two cents from the levels of last week. Striking evidence of consumer in-- 1 difference is to be found in the course of prices in the central com-- ) petitive field. In Illinois there have been some sharp open reduc-- : lions in steam sizes, including Franklin screenings, and the entire price structure is weak. Reductions in the circular prices on domestic anthracite failed to stimulate activity in the market. In general retail distributors more interested in cleaning up old stocks than in adding to 'are aC 7 their inventories and the weather has not prodded the household-e- r into action. Production continues well below normal. The steam market no longer commands attention. I - prevhwf culleetiaK - STOCKS ARE THE LARGEST IN HISTORY !
