UPSWING SENDS TWO ISSUES TO HIGHTERRITORY Record Levels Reached by American Can, Union Carbide Stock.
Average Stock Prices
Average of twenty industrials Tuesday was 170.95. up 1.66. Average of twenty rails was 136.08. up 1.31. Average of forty bonds was 96.93, up .05. Bu United Press NEW YORK, July 6.—The easement of call money to 4 per cent after a renewal rate of 41s per cent, in the face of the calling of some $15,000,000 additional loans by banks, today resulted in a general upward movement on the New York Stock Exchange. The upswing was led by such stock market generals as United States Steel, American Can,A llied Chemical and Union Carbide. American Can soared to new high levels at 58, up 1, while Union Carbide reached record high territory at 128%, but later, when buying temporarily relaxed, sold off to 127, Its previous closing price. Orderly Advance Rallying tendencies in the main body of stocks, gained in vigor today. Prices moved ahead in orderly fashion with General Electric, United States Steel, Westinghouse Electric, Allied Chemical, American Can, Reading, Consolidated Gas and other seasoned issues furnishing influential leadership. Bullish sentiment was revived by the ease with which the general list had thrown off the irregulaity which characterized trading during noon. It was noted that a reaction which had extended over a period of nearly six weeks had been practically wiped out in three sessions on a volume of scarcely more than 3,000,000 shares. Near May Record The Dow-Jones averages were again within striking distance of the May high. Confidence regarding the fundamental soundness of the market was restored. This feeling was strengthened by the passing of the light credit strain incident to the July 1 disbursements. After renewing at 4% per cent, call money eased off to 4 per cent in the face of withdrawals aggregating $15,000,000. Steel common advanced to the best levels of the current movement. -

In the Cotton Market
(By Thomson & McKinnon) NEW YORK. July 6. —lt is quite a trick to catch the cotton market out of line and can’t be. done every season, but I have the feeling that we have a chance now. A little more good weather and a big decline Is due. It will be so fast you will miss it If you fall to act quickly. Sell a little cotton for a start.
PLAN GREATEST RAIL COMBINE Hill Interests Seek Approval for 15,000-Mile System. Mv United Press WASHINGTON, July 6—The most extensive railway merger hitherto undertaken in this country will be proposed to the I. C. S. this week for approval. • The so-calleed Hill interests who have carried on the railroad holdings of the famous James J. Hill will seek commission ratification of a 15,000-mile network to be known as the great Northern Pacific. This new system would be achieved by stock ownership and 99vear lease of the properties of the Great Northern Pacific and the Spokane, Portland and Seattle roads. The Hill interests also own and control the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy. The deal proposes a $500,000,000 corporation which would issue new stock to be exchanged share for share for the present stock of the Great Northern and Northern Pacific, each of which has approximately $250,000,000 stock outstanding. Hill, famous railroad builder of the early west had the idea for this great line in 1901 and started to put the deal through before his death. He was blockeed, however, by numerous complications.

HOLD-UP PLOT FAILS Street Car Conductor’s Fist Deadlier Than Gun. Robert Hendrickson, 21, 3465 N. Illinois St., is in city prison and the arrest of his companion momentarily is expected following an attempted street car hold-up late Tuesday night at Forty-Ninth and Pennsylvania Sts. Conductor John Dilworth, 1119 Broadway, played the hero role when his left to the jaw proved deadlier than the unloaded gun Hendrickson threatened him with. Police were told that Hendrickson boarded the south-bound Meridian Heights car at Forty-Ninth St. and reached for his gun. Dilworth knocked him to x the rear platform before he drew it. Hendrickson then rose and tossed the gun out of the rear window. Mrs. Bertha Van Camp, Brookville, Ind., guest at the Claypool, was the only passenger on the car. Hendrickson confessed the holdup attempt, Detective Chief Claude M. Worley said. He and his companion planned the hold-up because they were broke and drove about for several hours in the companion’s auto looking for a street car with few passengers, according to the confession.

In the Sugar Market
(By Thomson Sc McKinnon) NEW YORK, July 6.—The sugar market has been depressed by the further circulation of July notices and a slow market for refined which is below the seasons normal. European selling is explained on the basis of hedging against the recent purchases and there is some occasional speculative support from Cuban interests. The volume of trading is light and the -market responds easily to minor influences. This does not change the main outlook however, and there is no reason for being discouraged as to ultimate upward movement of prices. UPHOLD GIFT TAX LAW Court of Appeals Rules on Income Levy Regulation. Bn United Press NEW YORK, July 7.—The United Press Circuit Court of Appeals has upheld the income tax regulation which provides that when a gift is sold,-tax shall be levied on the difference between the sale price and the cost to the original donor.

HEAVINESS IN WHEAT LOOKED * FOR JILL DAY Opening Fractionally Off, With Further Declines - Anticipated. Bu United Press CHICAGO, July 6.—The heavy tone of the'wheat market assumed after the recent holiday is expected to dominate the market today and further declines are looked for in this session. Opening quotations were % to >% lower than the close Tuesday. Traders are going slowly until the extent of the new crop jpovement in the southwest, where increased hedging pressure has been evident, is made known. Weather continues ideal for the crop, and reports from the spring wheat crop in the northwest continue good. There has been plenty of buying on all recent wheat depressions. Corn opened 1% to 1% lower than yesterday’s close, traders continuing to show the greatest interest in December corn, which yesterday had reached a pqint 5 cents higher than the September and 14 cents higher than the July. This is taken as reflecting faith in the ultimate bullishness of the new crop future, although weather just now is continuing propitious for growth. There is continued liquidation of July oats just as in corn, and what activity this pit shows is given to buying the December. Today's opening was unchanged to % lower than the previous close, showing the tendency to follow Other grains. Weather for the new crop is more, favorable but the grain is still far behind. Provisions opened unchanged. Chicago Grain Table —July 6 , WHEAT— Prev. High. - Low. 12:00. close.

NAVY HEAD AND . BYRD DISAGREE ON POLAR TRIP Wilbur’s Frowns May Cause Change in Plans of Commander. Bu United Press WASHINGTON, July 6.—Secretary of Navy Wilbur’s opposition to the proposed south polar flight of Commander Byrd has caused speculation as to what will be the outcome of the difference of view. Wilbur opposes the south polar flight, it is believed, because he would prefer that Byrd make an officially sponsored flight of immediately practical nature to give the navy a past in the present aviation revival. Byrd, retired. Is liow on active duty. Though he is on indefinite leave he might, as a naval officer, be expected to let the Navy’s desire3 Influence him. Other Plans Failed A high Navy official said today Wie Navy had planned a round-the-world flight previously, but had called it off when the Army decided on its globe-circling stunt two years ago. , | Byrd himself had planned a non-i stop trans-Atlantic flight as early as 1920 and was all ready to make the hop wheb it was called off. Admiral William A. Moffett, chief of the Navy’s Bureau of Aeronautics, revealed also today. Outcome Uncertain A south polar flight would be of an explorative, scientific nature, lacking the practical aspects of a long distance flight across maintraveled highways. Wilbur, It is believed, would rather see an official navy flight that would yield some new light upon practical commercial and military aviation. It is held likely the navy secretary will point out to Byrd, on the latter's return from France, that while the Navy obtains a certain glamor from Byrd's exploits, the aviator has received the benefits of Navy co-operation and Navy air instruments in his adventures. Whether Byrd will regard this as obligating him to defer to Wilbur’s wishes in the south polar-equa-torial flight is one of the angles watched with interest here. ASK VALUATION CUT Utilities Promoter Appears for Merged Property. Charles Clarke, Chicago utilities promoter, who backed the merger of 1 the two companies to form the In-R dianapolis Power and Light Company. appeared before the State tax board with attorneys today and asked that the company valuation be reduced. Attorneys Charles N. Thompson &nd Fred Simms argued that $3,000 - 000 in merged property would be reduced in valuation to $2,000,000 and that the reduced rate scale put into effect at the time of the merger would decrease company revenuri $600,000. Valuation fixed by the board at an earlier session was $23,607,600. Local real estate assessments brings the total to $24,896,000. CARS CRASH; ONE HURT Autoist Is Held on Charge of Reckless Driving.
