STOCKS CONTINUE HEAVY WITH BEAR INTERESTS ACTIVE Decrease in Industrial Employment in Detroit Furnishes Bearish Ammunition, The WALL STREET JOURNAL NEW YORK. April 10.—Further decrease in employment in Detroit and another falling in car loadings which showed shrinkage of 28,726 in the week ended March 29 as compared with the similar period in 1923 furnished additional bearish ammunition and stocks continued heavy in the early dealings. Woolworth made anew low on the move at 299%, and Studebaker at 90?4 while other active Industrials were under pressure. Although President Coelidge's victories in midwestem primaries apparently eliminated Johnson as a serious contender for the Republican nomination, Wall Street was too busy watching for immediate tcade indications to take this development Into consideration. Noon Hour Renewed pressure at midday drove various active industrials to new lows on the move. American Wool, 67%; Fisher Body, 206; Coco-Cola, 65%. However, a few strong spots persisted in the face of pronounced weakness of -the general market. American Water Works common reached anew high for the year at 51, while Texas & Pacific advanced nearly 2 points to 30 on heavy sales. Strength In Texas & Pacific Is due to the belief that the I. C. C. will soon announce its formal approval of the road’s reorganization.

Second Hour Stocks showed a slightly steadier tone late in the morning after new lows on the movement had been reached In the first hour In various industrials. Including Studebaker at 89%and American Can at 99%. This price compared with February high of 122%. A house that does a great deal of business for large professionals was a heavy seller of Can. Fourth Hour Impetus was given to the downward swing during the fourth hour by the publication of the March unfilled tonnage statement of the United States Steel Corporation setting forth shrinkage of 130,000 tons in forward orders. This news brought further sellng Into steel common, which broke to a newlow' for the year at 96%, carrying with it most of the other leading in dustrials. American Sugar at 45% reached the lowest price since its incorporation. The theory has been that the refining company would benefit but the lowest level American Sugar common has ever seen does not seem to substantiate this belief. Twenty average industrial stocks Wednesday averaged 92.24, off .61 per cent. Twenty average rails averaged 81.76, off .41 per cent. Local Bank Clearings Indianapolis bank clearing* Thursday were $2.298 000. Bank debits were $4.820.000.

GRAINS GET AWAY FOR BAD OPENING Government Wheat Report Believed Immature, Bit United Financial CHICAGO, April 10.—Grains began to slump at the opening of the Board of Trade here today. Downward march of wheat at the start was due to lower outside markets and mixed sentiment. The Government’s report in some quarters was regarded as bullish while In others it was hellevtxl premature. That it will take at least another month of growing weather before an intelligent estimate of winter crop conditions can be made. Some short covering served to check corn on the decline. Feeling, however, was heavy, influenced by wheat and slow demand in all positions. Selling by longs, anxious over the outlook, continued. Oats slumped but showed a better undertone than other grains. Eight receipts were offset by lack of urgent demand. Field work progressed further. Provisions was steady with hogs and cables.

Cash grain handlers are now devoting themselves to preparations for delivering warehouse stocks on May contract a there is no ready outlet. The grain situation is so bearish that efforts on the part of bulls are use’ess because the lower prices prevailing are unattractive to the bear side. It has reached a point where incentive is lacking to create any kind of a strengthening feeling. Winter wheat responded favorably to better weather, but is starting slowly In most eastern positions.

Automobile Distributorship Available One of the automobile industries’ most desirable accounts is about to become available to a capable Indianapolis distributing organization, or to a group of men who wish to form and finance such an organization around competent men we can recommend.
