NEW YORK, Aug. 12.—Manhattan Electrical Supply stock, center of Thursday’s flurry, continued its drop downward in early dealings today after having risen at the outset of trading on the New York stock exchange. The issue got up to 64%, a gain of 5 points from the previous close, then dropped to anew low on the movement at 58, recovering slightly from that figure around 11 o’clock. Thursday Manhattan dropped from 121 to 58*4. The firm of A. L. Fuller & Cos., today announced its inability to meet engagements, giving as the reason the break in Manhattan Electrical Supply. Pool operators in Manhattan Electrical, today figured their losses around $7,000,000. An involuntary petition of bankruptcy was filed in United States District Court against the firm by three creditors with claims for balances due on trading accounts. Following these developments bears launched an attack on other stocks. Eureka Vacuum Cleaner experienced a perpendicular decline from its early high of 74 Vi to anew low for the year of 51, a loss from the high of 23’4 points. White Sewing Machine dropped from 48V to 34, off 14 points from the previous close. Houston Oil, after early strength lost from 133 V to 126. American Express ranged between 161 V and 154 V, later recovering. Tipiken declined from 129 V to 123 V. United States Steel common was % higher at 131'* on the initial transaction, later rising to 132. General Motors had a split opening at 219 V and 219 V, off IV to IV. Before long demand was enlarged and the issue got up to 220 V. Traders were looking forward to a cash extra of $2.50 before the end of the year, following the 100 per cent stock distribution made Thursday after the close of the market. Stocks, which dropped sharply Thursday with Manhattan Electrical were better today. Houston Oil rose to 133, up 2V; Timken Roller Bearing to 128, up 2, and Baldwin to 248, up 1%. Representative issues such as American Smelting, American Can, Southern Pacific, General Railway Signal and International Combustion advanced as much as a point. Motor shares were steady as were oiis. A further increase in local brokerage loans during the week ended Aug. 10, the total $471,997,000 higher than'i year ago. However, no nervousness was created by this factor in view of -the falling off in the Federal reserve rediscounts to the level of $135,906,000 below 1926. This proved member banks were not only handling the increase in collateral borrowings without recourse to the Federal reserve, but were taking care of a larger percentage of commercial loans. This leaves a vast supply of Federal reserve credit untouched. Interest in early dealings on the Stock Exchange converged largely on General Motors owing to the announcement of a 2 for 1 split-up after Thursday’s close. Many traders sold on the good news and the stock was off at the opening.

MAILS OUT BACK PAY Legislators Sent Checks for $4 a Day Held Up by Auditor. The extra $4 a day pay which the 1927 Legislature voted itself was being mailed today to the members of that body from the office of State Auditor L. S. Bowman. During the session Bowman refused to pay but $6 a day, as provided under the law. The $lO a day law, passed in 1925, was not to be effective until 1929. The Attorney General and Marion Circuit Court held that the lawmakers could not vote themselves a raise, but the Supreme Court reversed this decision, refused rehearing and Bowman was ordered to pay the $4 a day difference. The higli cdurt held that the 1927 legislative pay was not provided for by any existing law. Checks totaled $39,136, each Senator and Representative receiving $244 for the session.

GRAIN PRICES DROP LOW IN CHICAGO PIT Unsettled Conditions Prevail in Market and All Commodities Fall. By Ufiled Press CHICAGO, Aug. 12.—An unsettled condition was apparent early today in grain futures on the Board of Trade, with opening prices % to % cent lower on wheat; corn, % to % cent down; and oats, * cent lower. The technical position of the wheat pit was woaker today as a result of the erratic session Thursday when prices moved to anew high and then tumbled as rapidly. Liverpool opened lower and was an influence here. Experts said weather conditions were condutive to rust damage. The corn belt was experiencing unsettled weather today, and rains were reported at several points. This, with warmer temperatures, is greatly needed by the backward crop. The undertone of the oats pit was strong, due to the bullish crop and thrashing returns of recent days. Provisions opened steady. Chicago Grain Table —Aug. 12WHEAT— Prev. High. Low. 12 00 close.

GENERAL MOTOR STOCKHOLDERS DIGEST MELON Record Breaking Stock Dividend Followed by Talk of Cash Bonus. BY ELMER C. WALZER • United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK. Aug. 12.—The huge melon for stockholders of General Motors in the form of a “two for one share split” of stock announced yesterday was still in the process of digestion in Wall Street today. Traders, however, already were turning their attention to the prospects of an extra cash dividend of $2.50 a share before the end of the year. Discussion centered about the cash disbursement and the probable price at which the new $25 par value stock to be created would sell in the market. Theoretically it will start around S9O a share, but that cannot be determined until the dividend is known. The stock changes voted after the close yesterday was in line with expectations virtually 100 per cent stock dividends—two shares for old now held, or an increase of common stock from 10.000.000 shares of no par value to 30.000,000 shares of $25 par value. On the theoretical basis of S9O a share value for the new stock the distribution on the 8.700,000 present shares of common stock now outstanding would equal $783,000,000. the largest ever distributed :n any stock dividend. Wall Street firmly believes the new stock will be placed on a $5 annual dividend basis. Since headers of present stock would have two shares of the new for cash one now held, it would net them $lO annually in regular dividends, whereas the present stock pays SB. Earnings of General Motors are estimated to be at record levels. Net for the third quarter is estimated between $60,000,000 and $65.000,000, equal to around $7 a share on common stock now outstanding. Earnings for the year are placed at $25 a share. If the company follows its policy of paying 60 per cent of this figure in cash dividends sls will be the total distributed to holders of present stock. This would leave $2.50 as an extra dividend this year. In addition to the General Motors topic the financial community is showing growing interest in the new Ford car and is calculating coldly the inroads this model will make into General Motors profits. Should the new Ford be placed on the market at a real low price, the car embodying all the features which rumor says, sales of Chevrolets would be reduced unless prices were cut proportionately. With this menace overhanging their company directors, confident of their strength, declared the huge 100 per cent stock distribution. They were shrewd, however, in withholding th? dividend amount, holding that in reserve for future inducement should their stock need boosting. Marriage Licenses Eugen* Cheatham. 22. 525 W.

ASK USERS OF RADIO TO BACK PLEA OF WFBM U. S. Commission Requests Evidence of Desire for Increased Power. Radio users all oveF Indiana are expected to respond to the announcement that the Federal radio commission wishes additional evidence of the desire of the people of the State for a better and higher powered radio broadcasting station. The commission’s request has been made in connection with the application of station WFBM, Indianapolis Power and Light Company, for a permit to increase its power and to have a more favorable frequency than was alloted to it by the commission. Interest in the case was heightened by the announcement that it is contemplated to increase the station’s power to 5,000 watts, if the commission wishes that done. May Increase Power The present plan is for an increase from 250 to 1,000 watts, but Norman A. Perry, president of the company, I said the further increase will be i made if advisable. This would put j WFBM equal in sending power to all except three of big stations in the country. Those three are WJZ, New York; WGY, Schenectady, and KDKA. Pittsburgh. “Indiana is entitled to a proper representation in the radio broadcasting field, which it does not now have,” said Perry. Rightful Place in Afr “Here is 8n opportunity for the I State to obtain its rightful place in ; the air, and in view of the comparatively small number of favor- ! able frequencies available under the , rules of the commission the opportunity might not come again. I "The Indianapolis Power and Light Company is planning to build a station which will be a real asset to Indiana, in power, and in the quality of the programs it will offer. It will continue to be a good will station, not operated for profit.” Ask Fans to Write In order to make it clear to the ! commission that the people of Indiana are awake to the need for a powerful broadcasting station, it lias been suggested that letters be j written by all radio users interested, setting out their opinions on the I situation and the value it would be to the State. These letters should be sent either to Station WFBM. Indianapolis Power and Light Company, or direct to the commission. Letters 1 to the station should be received not later than next Monday. as time for submitiing them to the commission is short. SELL OLD RESIDENCES Bids on Houses on School Property to Bo Received.
