Average Stock Prices

Average of twenty industrials Wednesday was 164.17, up .79. Average of twenty rails was 131.83, off .18. Average of forty bonds was 97.38, up .07. Bu United Press NEW YORK, April 14.—Resumption of the advance in Wednesday’s 'session carried the industrial average into new high ground for the year at 164.17, compared with the record high of 166.64 reached last August. This strengthened confidence regarding the fundamental character of the forward movement, land fresh buying was attracted, fringing about general gains in industrials. Mack Truck spurted 2 points to 111%, Baldwin 1% to 192%, and Commercial Solvents B, 5% to 356%. Oils continued to move against the trend. Marland broke to new low ground for the year at 44%, off and Phillips at 45%, off %. Moves Up "Liquidation by traders in the late morning desirous to he out of the market over tomorrow’s holiday and the week-end was readily absorbed, and the general list continued to move ahead in healthy style. Stimulus was afforded to bullish operations by the large supply of demand funds at 4% per cent, notwithstanding the fact that today’s loans ■were for a three-day period, and that heavy requisitions on the money market were made to meet State taxes and $150,000,000 interest due on Federal Government obligations, April 15. I With call money steady in the face of these transactions, the hope was fostered that next week would ■see a restoration of the 4 per cent rate, and this factor encouraged the constructive forces. Strength in Rails After taking a few days’ breathing spell the rails resumed active trading. Atchison reached the highest point of its history at 183, up 2%, reflecting the belief that the company ma.y pay a 40 per cent stock dividend soon. Kansas City Southern also displayed special strength, rising 2 points to 61%. United Cigar Stores broke a point to 85 on selling actuated by the expression of financing which may entail the issuance of anew 6 per cent preferred.

In the Sugar Market

(By Thomson & McKinnon) NEW YORK. April 14.—Stiffening of refiners selling prices late yesterday was a natural sequel to the advance in raws. The trade is anticipating a, better demand for granulated following the Easter holidays Allowing for continued adjustments in futures. I doubt that there will be any change of consequence pending the resumption of business next week.

TRADERS EXPECT NARROW MARKET Buying in Wheat Likely Only on Breaks. Bu United Press CHICAGO, April 14.—The wheat trade Is inclined to look for a narrow market for the present, with buying on breaks only and accepting moderate profits being favored by several commission houses. Opening quotations were unchanged to %c higher than yesterday’s close. The idea is that exporters will continue to absorb wheat on all sharp declines and have a steadying effect on the market from time to time, Liverpool came about as due. There was nothing in the situation to change the bearish sentiment that exists in corn and most traders expect to see prices work lower. Prices opened %c to %c higher than the previous close. Large traders who are selling May corn short are working on the belief that the latest trade developments suggest the possibility that heavy deliveries of cash corn on May sales are not likely to find permanent lodgment. Oats are devoid of interest or feature and continue to follow other grains. Price# opened %c off to %c higher than Wednesday’s close. Provisions opened higher.

STOCK MARKET NOT YET AT REACTIONARY STAGE Inherent Strength Shown Despite Bearish Pressure — High-Grade Issues Make Good Recoveries.

By Klnier C. Walzer, United Press Financial Editor NEW YORK. April 14.—That the stock market has not yet reached the reactionary stage was demonstrated by the inherent strength of leading issues' Wednesday in the face of further bearish pressure. All of the high-grade stocks made excellent recoveries from early setbacks and several rose to new high ground in the afternoon dealings. Recent leadership of United States steel common and General Motors was supplanted again by a horde of special stocks which monopolized the tape and made sensational advances. In the latter group the widest swing was made by Commercial Solvents B, which ranged between 33S*/2 and 355, closing at 351, up 12 points for the day. Warner Brothers Pictures was strong on better earnings prospects; Corn Products was purchased for the long pull, the buying sending the price up 2% points to new high ground for the year and General Electric scored anew high level at 93%, closing at 03%, up 3%. Mack Truck after touching a new high at 112%, eased off in profit taking. It was predicted freely that Mack’s earnings would be three times dividend requirements and further it was noted that the company's cash position is excellent. Vulcan Detining preferred soared 11% points in the trading. Market’s Power The power of the market was amply demonstrated when bears succeeded in depressing General Motors to 182%, after which it recovered 2 points to close at 184%, up 1% net. Steel common closed unchanged at 171 after having touched 170 while New York Central ranged between 148% and 149%, ending the session at 149, its previous closing level. Hocking Valley in a few sales rose 10 points, but it was not representative of the remaining carrier shares which were quiet most of the day. Atchison eased off 1% in profittaking while most of the other issues of the group held steady. Credit conditions continued firm, time money running to 4% per cent for all dates, compared with a range of 4% to 4% per cent previously, while the call rate held at 4% per

IMPROVEMENT IN WINTER WHEAT 89 Per Cent Normal, 16 Points Above Year Ago. Bu Times Special LAFAYETTE. Ind., April 14. The condition of winter wheat is 89 per cent of normal this spring, as compared with 73 per cent last year and 76 per cent in December, according to figures released today from the office of Miner M. Justin, agricultural statistician of the Purdue Agricultural Experiment station and United States Department of Agriculture. The splendid showing of April 1, is due, the announcement said, to mild winter temperatures, and abundant moißture, combined with the advanced spring weather. The average condition for ten years has been 79 per cent in Indiana and 79.8 per cent for tli® entire United States. The average condition of the wheat crop for the United States, April 1, was 84.5 per cent of normal, compared with 84.1 per cent last year and 68.7 per cent on April 1, 1925. Rye condition in Indiana is 88 per cent of normal and conditions of pasture is 87 per cent compared to 73 last year. On crop reporters’ farms 73.5 per cent of the cows were in milk on April 1 and produced an average of 20.6 pounds of milk each. The wages of farm labor by the month with board averaged $36.50,* compared with $36.00 last year. Without board the monthly average was $49.50 for April and $50.50 last year. Day wages with board averaged $2.15 this month and $2.00 a year ago. while day w r ages without board were $2.75 this month and $2.65 a year ago. The supply of farm labor Is now just equal to the demand, where last year It was only 99 per cent of needs.

cent through the day. Banks only called $5,000,000 and the mid-month settlements are about over, leaving the way clear for another easing off in the rate. Optimism Continues Oil issues again met selling pressure, particularly Marland, which sagged to anew low level for the year. Steel reviews continued to be optimistic, even though they pointed out that production was showing signs, of falling off. Car loadings were under a million for the first time in four weeks, due mostly to the coal strike, but they were well above last year. In the commodity markets May wheat and all months in corn declined, while July and September wheat advanced. Cotton held steady after losing early gains. Lira was the outstanding feature of the foreign exchange trading, rising to the highest level since April, 1923. Bonds continued firm and more active. Curb stocks also made a better showing with the exception of the oils.

WONDERING BOY HEARD COUNSEL ON MINE GUN Glamour of Bandit Life for Youth Related at Recent Trial. Bu United Pres QUINCY, J 1., April 14.—A ‘'white lie” told to a gasping youth whose mind was filled with the glamour of being a machine gunner for a bandit squad was told while the trial of Earl, Carl and Bernie Shelton was on here. The three men, among the most notorious of the modern day gunmen in Southern Illinois, were convicted of robbing a Collinsville, (111.), mail messenger in one of their daring exploits. It was a chance conversation that led' to the white lie. A well-dressed man paused to buy a newspaper from a street corner newsboy who was reading the account of the trial. “Say mister, those Shelton guys ain't guilty,” the boy said. “When I grow up, I’m going to be a gunman and no one like this Charley Birger better snitch on me.” Demonstrates With deftness the boy wheeled and using a folder up newspaper as a machine gun, such as the Southern Illinois gansters are wont to use, he went through the motions of “covering” a number of men. “Yest, I want to be a gunman. ‘ 1 wonder what it’s like,” the boy continued. “What do you want to know, son? I’m one," the man replied. The youth was a bit awed but responded he wanted to know Just how the gunmen lived and how they enjoyed their luxury. "Tough Racket” "Son it’s a tough racket. When you’re not looking out for the law, you’re careful to see that no one Is trying to shoot you. You work hard. Half the time you’re in jail, and danger.” The man showed a scar on his right arm, which no doubt had been made from a bullet. "Maybe I had better be a baseball player or a jockey then,” the youth replied and the man nodded. The man was a United States government operative who had been successful in bringing the Sheltons to trial. ‘BOY CATCHER WAGON’ Soviet Government Takes Step** io Round Up Waifs Bu United Press MOSCOW.

FIND MINERAL IN MEXICO EXPLODES Scientists Bestow Name of Hillenrandite. Bu United Press Washington, April 14.—An expedition jus* returned from the mining regions of northern Mexico reports the discovery of a mineral that exploded violently when first discovered. Dr. W. F. Foshab, Smithsonian geologist in charge of the party, said the mineral has been named hillenraiidite and is found in no other place in the world. Its discovery was marked by a series of explosions in a mine from which silver ore was being extracted. 7 hey wers b’elieved to be due to high pressure, the mineral being so condensed that it burst when the mine tunnel gave it an outlet. Two other rare minerals, velardenlte and spurrite, were discovered in the same mine, as were the largest know gypsum crystals in the world. The crystals measure up to six feet in length and are eight or ten inches thick. The mine was discovered many years ago by a band of smugglers who were fleeing through the hills.

INCREASE NOTED IN CHARITY GIFTS Survey Shows Change in 25-Year Period. Bu Times Special WASHINGTON, April If..—Growing richer, the people of this country are also growing more generous. 7’he National Bureau of Economic Research has just completed a survery of philanthropy for the first twenty-five years of the century, based on study of New Haven, Conn., as a test city. Results show that charitable gifts in 1925 were six times as great as in 1900. Religious organizations took in three times as much money as in 1900, while social agencies collected ten times as much. This trend in giving to social rather than religious organizations is shown several times in the report. While the number of religious charitable organizations increased from 79 to 95 the number of social agencies increased from 41 to 90. UUntil 1907 the amount of money contributed to the two kinds of work was nearly the same. But from that time on social agencies have led, and in 1925 they received nearly fourfifths of the contributions.
