Bu Vnited Press NEW YORK, Aug. 16.—Powerful support for important stocks was present on the New York Stock Exchange again today guarding the Nation’s financial center once more against any disturbance which might follow the death yesterday of Judge Elbert H. Gary of the United States Steel Corporation. There was a v little stir, which traders called an “unsettled coi.dition,” during the opening hour, but always there was money rushed intc the breach, and stocks which seemed threatened with attack usually emerged stronger than before, just as was the story yesterday. U. S. Steel opened at 135 Vs, up %, but selling was slightly more than could be absorbed readily and the issue eased V* from the opening. General Motors, on the other hand, upward in the first fifteen minutes, getting above 226. Du Pont gained 2 points to 285 at the initial sale, then rose to 286. Railroad shares were in demand at higher prices. Atchison sold at 193%, up %; New York Central, 153 U, up %. Union Pacific and other Western roads gained. Erie resumed its forward movement with an initial gain of •'?! to 62. Motor shares were steady, as were Oils. Steels gained. Nation-wide -ease in money was stressed by the reduction in the Richmond bank rate to 3% per cent. This action left only four regional institutions on a 4 per cent basis and these are expected to follow the example of the other eight in the near future. Abundant credit continued to dominate price movements on the stock exchange in early dealings. Seasoned dividend shares maintained leadership with Steel, General Motors, Atchison and Baltimore & Ohio in special prominence. In addition to the money situation, stimulation was supplied by Secretary Hoover's statement that the flood relief program should not interfere with further tax cuts in the next Congress.

GUM WORKS Swedish Administrative Machine Puzzled. Bn United Press STOCKHOLM, Aug. 16.—Chewing gum has gummed up the administrative machinery of Sweden. The basis for the trouble was the necessity to determine whether American imported chicle should be classified as a substitute for tobacco—and, therefore, a product to sell at tobacco stores—or merely a candy, which should be sold at confectionery stores. Prof. K. Sonden, number of the government medical board, was appointed a committee of one to determine which class of store should be permitted to sell the ever popular product, after other committees and government men had failed to settle it. Professor Sonden chewed his gum samples with the result that he decided it was candy. The royal medical -board concurred and it now remains for the government to approve their action.

GRAIN FUTURES MOVE UNEASILY IN CHICAGO PIT Export Business Reported to Be on Upturn; Market in Good Condition. By United Pres* CHICAGO, Aug. 16.—Grain futures were uneasy here early today following an opening at which wheat prices were unchanged to Va cent higher, corn % cent lower, and oats unchanged to Vs cent higher. The technical position of the pit was better this morning following Monday’s break and late bulge. Export business was said to be on the upturn. The visible grain supply for the week showed an increase of 7,839,000 bushels. Liverpool was higher today. Cool nights in the corn belt continue, and bull traders have been more than ever convinced that they are right. Each cool night sets the backward crop further behind, they say. Oats were in a position to advance on any upturns, as recent bullish harvest and crop news have resulted in higher prices in this pit. Provisions opened unchanged.

By United Press LOS ANGELES, Aug. 16.—Arrival of Charles Chaplin, film comedian, here today was expected to be followed by the announcement he had purchased peace in his family for one million dollars. The “peace” will constitute legal separation from his wife, Lita Gray Chaplin, it was said, and precluded the airing in court of expected sensational divorce proceedings scheduled for Aug. 22. For the $1,000,000 concession, Chaplin additionally will be permitted to visit and have custody of his children at intervals, it was unofficially reported. Mrs. Chaplin also will forget the sensational allegations in her suit for divorce and seek separation on a cruelty charge, reports said, and Chaplin will withdraw his counter suit. In short, if developments go as predicted the scheduled Chaplin divorce battle will not even be a skirmish. While en route here from San Francisco where Chaplin arrived Sunday from New York, the comedian has been in constant conference with his attorneys.

JIM REED GETS 0. K. OF BRYAN FOR PRESIDENT Anti-Monopoly Platform Is Urged; Shun Liquor and Religion. BY PAUL R. MALLON United Press Staff Correspondent RAPID CITY, S. D., Aug, 16. Former Governor Charles W. Bryan of Nebraska, brother of the late commoner, has expressed his opinion that the next Democratic presidential campaign must be conducted on an anti-monopoly platform and that prohibition or religion should not enter party discussions. In a letter written to Maurice P. Murphy, attorney of St. Joseph, Mo., Bryan indicated he would have no objection to Senator James A. Reed (Dem.), Missouri, as a prospective nominee. The Missouri Senator is considered a wet and Bryan is considered one of the dry leaders. Admires Reed’s F „ord “I have had the pleasure of a personal acquaintance with Senator Reed for the past twenty years, and have admired his ability and fearlessness in public life,” wrote Bryan. “In the middlewest both Democrats and Republicans are more-in-terested in issues than they are in men. In other words they will be undecided as to what man they will support until they are able to I’’c,rn what issues various candidates represent or intend to support. “Our people are interested in economic issues and the entire agricultural sections of the middlewest are so aroused over economic issues and the way they affect the farmer that they will not take any interest in any candidate who is discussing issues other than the ones seriously and financially affecting them. Would Fight Monopolies “Voters that I have been able to keep in touch with through the country are not interested in any phase of liquor or prohibition situation. They do not want it made an issue, which would divert public mind from economics issues that are so important ” “Senator Reed made a splendid fight against political corruption and he could be a tremendous force as a leader on an anti-monopoly platform, but the great mass of Democrats who favor Jeffersonian doctrines of ‘equal rights to all and special privileges to none’ are opposed to taking any backward steps in moral progress country has made.” CHRISTEN SHIP BABY First Child Born on Liner, New York, Reaches Port.
