Describing the market, the Wail Street Journal’s financial review today said: “Sizeable blocks made their appearance at the opening with prices generally strong except for a few issues such as American Sugar. American linseed continued to move forward on short covering and the good earnings outlook. Due to the talk of a large short interest in General Motors, many hours were advising clients to buy the stock on this basis. “Studebaker opened at anew high on the movement and other motor shares were firm. “Montgomery Ward continued its upward course to new high for all time.”

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

In the Sugar Market

(Bv Thomson <& McKinnon) NEW YORK. Feb. 7.—The sugar futures market seems to have a steadier undertone, notwithstanding the variations in price. Offerings of raw sugar seem to have been withdrawn, at prices previously quoted, although it was understood there were some possible balances offered out of recent purchases made by operators from the Cuban export company for export to points outside of the united States. There also appeared to be a belief that local refiners are buying these export balances from operators in contemplation of future export trade In granulated.

ALL GRAINS GO UP FUR SMALL PRDFITSTODAY Bullish News Strengthens Tone in Quiet Session at Chicago. Bn United Press CHICAGO, Feb. 7.—Bullish news strengthened the tone in all grains on the Chicago Board of Trade today, but the session was very quiet and gains were small. Late in the day wheat was up around !* @ lie; corn was about %c higher, and oats was holding a minor fractional advance. Wheat trade was dull and largely professional. Unexpected higher Liverpool cables furnished about the only factor to influence prices. Rains and generally unsettled belt weather hindered country com movement and boosted all prices in that grain. Receipts at principal points today were fairly liberal, totaling 313 cars here. The cash market was unchanged to tic higher. Oats continued to follow other grains, showing no independent activity. Receipts were fifty cars and the cash market held unchanged. Provisions worked higher with higher hog prices. Chicago Grain Table —Feb. 7 WHEAT— Prev. High. Low. 12:00 close. !

"When they reported her absent I thought, of course, that it was my duty to scold her. I didn’t know until after she was gone that I had been misinformed,” said Mrs. Lange. The girl was last seen in the Union Station where a friend of the Lange family met her, after she had bought a ticket to Muncie. The friend returned the ticket, gave the money back to Hazeldell and started to take her home. At the main entrance the girl broke away and disappeared in the crowd. The missing girl was wearing a red coat with brown fur, a brown, brocaded dress and a black hat. She is about 5 feet 2 inches in height, has violet eyes, unusually long lashes and brown hair, and weighs 104 pounds.

In the Stock Market

•By Thomson & McKinnon) NEW YORK. Feb. 7.—When trusting to memory it is, of course, possible that we may be mistaken in our numbers, but to the best of our recollection we have the seventh market in Bethlehem Steel, based on a coming dividend, and the fifth in Republic, based on a merger. Wouldn’t It be thrilling if at least one of the two should be verified? There is, however, something of real consequence worth talking about this morning. Monday afternoon we learned from what we consider reliable sources that the floating supply of United States Steel has changed its resting place to such an extent that some difficulty is experienced in borrowing the stock. This really is astounding. There are two explanations, but it would be pure guesswork to determine which one applies. Either big holders have liquidated and instead of delivering from their safety deposit boxes, borrowed stocks or that there is an out-and-out short interest of unusual size. We are giving you the facts without any opinion as to whether the theory is correct. DELAY COP PAY SUIT Case Called fpr Trial but Attorneys Are Not Ready. Injunction suit of Indianapolis policemen to force the payment of sllO a year salary increase stricken from the budget by the State tax board was postponed indefinitely today by Superior Judge Byron K.

PUSH MEASURE FUR RELIEF OF FT.JARRISON House Approval Sought for Appropriation Passed by Senate Monday. BY ROSCOE B. FLEMING, Times Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON, Feb. 6.—lndiana Representatives, aided by Senator Arthur R. Robinson, today sought to bring pressure on the House of Representatives military affairs committee to obtain House approval of a measure passed by the Senate Monday, providing $660,000 to correct housing evils at Ft. Benjamin Harrison. Representative Ralph Updike planned an immediate conference with Representative W. Frank James, regarded as the House Army housing problem expert, to obtain his approval of the measure. James has declared he believes $361,000 will supply the present need at Ft. Harrison, and that he will try to get the $660,000 cut down to that amount. The Senate Item providing the $660,000 was an amendment added by Senator Robinson, a member of the Senate military affairs committee, to a House bill providing $5,500,000 for buildings at several aviation fields. The bill must now go to conference and the amendment approved by the House before it will become effective. Senator Reed of Pennsylvania, Senate military affairs chairman, has promised Senator Robinson that he will insist on approval of the Ft. Harrison item. The movement to obtain adequate housing at the Indianapolis fort began after a move to remove part of the troops from the fort was stopped several months ago. War Department officials had announced that they intended to move some of the troops, but changed their plans following a storm of protest from Indianapolis and the demand that the fort be made habitable instead of abandoned.

SUPPURT U. S. PEACE PLANS IN NICARAGUA Vast Majority of Public Is Grateful to Marines, Says Writer. BY MAX STERN Staff Correspondent, Scripps-Howard Newspapers MANAGUA, Feb. 7.—A1l Is quiet along the Jicaro. The guns of Sandino, Rebel general, are quieted for the present. In the capital, however, the political Rebel, General Chamorro, is firing a barrage of monkey-wrenches into American plans for a peaceable presidential election and the political and financial rehabilitation of this war-stricken republic. The cost of Candino’s hopless gesture of rebellion will be small compared with the cost of Chamorro’s if he succeeds in defeating the McCoy election law and national guard appropriation. Both now before Congress. Support U. S. Program It is not believed he will, however, for just as our grim khakiclad Marines are digging In for a long siege against Sandino, the white-clad diplomats of the American mediator mission here say they are determined to see the end of government by force and the persecution of minorities. Congress adjourns the latter part of February. Although it is opposed by the conservative boss, the American program is supported by two strong conservative leaders, President Diaz and Leopold Salazar, president of the Senate. Nation Favors Peace Whether it is realized in the states or not, American mediation is supported here by the vast majority of Nicaraguans. Some toast Sandino, and there are many vivas for Chamorro, but all Nicaragua that is vocal favors peace and constitutionalism and desires an honest presidential election. I have yet to hear one person seriously urge the immediate withdrawal of the Marines. Our officers are accepted in society and are welcomed in both liberal and conservative clubs.
