Bu United Press NEW YORK, July 31.—Explanation for Thursday’s easement in call money to 3% per cent was afforded by the weekly statement of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, which set forth the increase in the reserve ratio to 85.5 per cent against 83.5 per cent a week ago and 83 per cent a year ago. This evidence of large credit supplies in the face of the high level of brokerage loans encouraged further buying operations at the opening today and the general list displayed a confident tone. American Can sold at 209, ex-dividend of $1.25, representing a fractional gain from the previous close. Steel and other industrial leaders were steady, but motor shares were unsettled by price cuts announced by the Buick division of General Motors. A Warning that the big banking (■nterests had not abandoned the j constructive side of the market was 1 given to short interests by the behavior of the general list around noon. Stocks which had been subject to severe pressure in earlier dealings came back sharply on a few transactions giving the bears crowd n<j opportunity to cover at lower levels. Cast Iron Pipe’s recovery was sensational. This stock rebounded 8 points to 151, putting to route a group which had been offering the stock down on cars of foreign competition. I Generals Motors and Studebacker led a brisk rally in automobile shares J while general Electric ran up 4 points to 294 at the head of the recovery among leading industrials.

JULY WHEAT TAKES JUMP Other Grains Show Losses in | Trading. Bu United Press CHICAGO, July 31.—July wheat jumped sharply while other grains showed net losses in today’s trading on the Board of Trade. Bidding up July wheat nine cents by belated shorts had steadying effect on distant options. The last delivery caught many without sufficient grain to cover contracts. They were forcer to boost bids when those who had grain for sale reduced offers. Corn averaged lower. Trade was narrow. Liquidating sales followed reports of rains over the main belt Oats suffered under profit sales, induced by weakness in other grains. Continued liquidation by longs weakened provisions.

TRADE REVIEWS SAY
NEW YORK, July 31. —While automobile production in the first half of this year was highly gratifying, it should not be expected that the record will be equalled in the second six months, Says M°f° r i n weekly survey of trade conditions. Although domestic output of passenger cars up to July 1 aggregated 1,856,000 as compared with 1,774,000 in the same'period last year, a gain of 82,000, actual sales were not quite as large as in 1924. Increased exports accounted for fully half the excess and it should not be forgotten that by the middle of last year dealers had disposed of the major part of)a heavy carryover of cars from 1923. They were under no such necessity in 1925. The remarkable earnings shown by many of the leading companies In all branches of the industry have been due to increased efficiency and economy rather than an unprecedented volume of business. As good a record, comparatively, will be made in the remaining months, provided over-production is avoided. July should‘show a decrease in output of at least 10 per cent in domestic passenger car production, which would bring the total down to 315,000 and it probably should be less. The tapering off in later months will have to be even more rapid if the industry as a whole js to avoid the accumulation of surplus stocks. A few companies, Including some of the larger producers, but not the largest, have had a materially bigger business than they had in 1925 and they will do very well in the second half, but the aggregate of their sales will be well under those in the first half.

SLEEP DISEASE ROBS VICTIMS OF MORAL SENSE Sickness Is Modern Malady e With Puzzling Cause and Fearful Effects. Bu Times Special LONDON. July 31.—. Sleeping sickness. one of the most puzzling of modern diseases, may deprive a person of all moral sense, taking from its victim, for instance, all ability to tell the.truth. Fearful effects of the malady were described by an official of the Ministry of Health, which has been aroused over the spread of the disease here and is making special eforts to check Its growth. “Sleepy sickness” as lt Is called here, recently claimed Lord Milner, former colonial secretary, as a victim. “We don’t know what causes sleeping sickness in Europe, and we don’t know as yet what p 'ecautions are necessary to prevent its spread. ’’ an official of the Health Ministry said. “It seems to be a product of modern civilization. We can not tell but that suddenly lt might take on the proportions of a serious plague. ■ “One of the most terrible aspects of the disease is that even the victim recovers, he Is almost Invariably left with some grave physical or mental defect. Sometimes, too. lt makes a fundamental change in the victim’s character. Cases are on record Whjie a person ot unquestioned truthfulness emerge! from the sickness as a colossal liar. Other persons who were moral before having sleeping sickness on recovery semed to have become absolutely devoid of moral sense. “Another of the curious aspects of the disease Is that lt seems to be no respector of persons. High station In life is no guarantee of one’s Immunity from it. In this respect sleeping sickness Is different from most other of the knotvn contagious diseases and we know now that lt Is 1 nthe contagious category. Most contagious diseases have some close relationship between a person’s clean liness and good habits of life and his susceptibility to the disease. Hut so far as we can di.-cover, cleanliness and hygiene have no relationship to the question of one’s immunity to this modern new disease. “This is one of the factors that makes lt difficult to take measures against the spread of the disease.” It la further declared that the name “sleeping sickness” la a misnomer, that true “sleeping sickness” is purely a tropical disease caused by the bite of the tsotse fly, and had nothing to do with the European disease which Is in reality closely allied to cerebro-spir.al meningitis. It Is a contagious infectious disease of the spinal column showing its first symptoms generally at the base of the brain. How the infection is carried it is not yet known, but its origin in European countries certainly has nothing to do with the bite of the tsotso fly. The proper name of the diseases is Encephalitis Lethargica, and by such it is universally known among physicians studying the subject.
HARVEST HANUS IN AUTOMOBILES Annual Kansas Influx Begins in New Way. Bu SEA Service HUTCHINSON, Kan., July 31. This season’s army of harvest hands has started Its Influx Into Kansas. But a change has come! Automobiles are taking the place of chairs cars, freight trains and “covered wagons.” Office clerks from the east, college youths and ordinary laborers are coming to the wheat fields by transportation that Is strange and luxurious. Previously the “rods,” “blind baggage” in passenger trains, and the roofs and Interiors of freight trains were the main means of transportation for the farm laborers. Now the laborers drive to the marvest fields In automobiles. When the wheat Is reaped they drive on to the next field, and after the season return to their homes by motor car.
