LOWER TRADING RACE IS SET IN REACTIONTODAT Oils Lead Recovery Late in , Session Only to Sell $ Off at Close. Average Stock Prices i Average of twenty industrials Friday was 217.64, off 1.12. Average of twenty rails was 145.34, up .87. Average of forty bonds was 98.76, unchanged. Du United Press NEW YORK, May 21.—Stocks reacted today in lighter trading. The opening was lower and this was followed by a slight recovery, but later under the lead of x such issues as Wright, Curtis and some of the rails, the whole list sold off. Late in the day a recovery led by oils brought back part of the losses, but the selling gained sway at the close. Describing the market, the Wall Street Journal’s financial review today said: “Wall Street had difficulty today in adjusting itself to the regirfie of a 2 o’clock closing. It obviously exercised a restrictive effect on trading. Volume fell off considerably from the recent activity, and the tape kept well up to the market throughout the session. “It was evident also that efforts of the Federal reserve authorities to slow down speculative activities were finally bearing fruit. Considerable nervousness was in evidence over the increased bank rate and the high level of both time and call money. This apprehension was reflected in substantial selling of steel, General Motors and other industrial leaders.’’ Banks and Exchange TREASURY STATEMENT I?'/ United. Press WASHINGTON.

In the Stock Market (By Thomson & McKinnon) ’ NEW YORK, May 21.—The continued contraction of credit and the advance in the New York discount rate has developed some stock market conditions with which traders have not had to contend for some time. Stocks, during the last two trading days, swung over wide price area and the action of many indicated that their recuperative powers were about exhausted. During this period railroad issues held well, but over the week end an I. C. C. decision was made which in no mistakable terms stated that the speculative feature must be removed from those issues which seek authority for consolidation. Hence activity in many rails today will show the interpretation the market places on the Chesapeake and Ohio consolidation approval. With these conditions to consider and the possibilities of some new developments which may come with the shorter trading day, it is likely that sentiment so bullish heretofore may cool considerably. Therefore, until matters right themselves, we think it would be best for traders to liquidate, RAISE VALUATIONS ON SIX STATE UTILITIES Taxation Figures Increased On High-Profit Hearings.

OVERRULEPLEA OF OIL CZAR Stewart Must Face Trial for Contempt. WASHINGTON, May 21.—Robert W. Stewart, chairman of the Standard Oil Company of Indiana, lost today his attempt to nullify the Senate contempt indictment against him. He must go on trial here later. Justice F. L. Siddon in District of Columbia Supreme Court upheld a Government demurrer to Stewart’s plea in bar against the indictment. Stewart contended primarily that he purged himself of the contempt charge by a later appearance by the Senate Teapot Dome committee at which he testified fully and answered all the questions he previously refused to answer. The Government contended that Stewart’s testimony in April was not given until after he was indicted; that his action in “squaring himself” with the Senate committee could not settle his account with the law which demanded punishment for his recalcitrance in February. If convicted Stewart must serve from one month to one year. Births Twins Steven and Alma Flike. 1026 S. Senate, boys. Bovs Harry and Belle Goldstein. St. Vincent Hospital.

GRAINS ERRATIC IN OPENING ON CHICAGOBOARD European and U. S. Reports Counteract in Futures Pits. Bu United Press CHICAGO, May 21.—Counteracting reports from Europe and the United States grain belt caused grain to open erratically on the Board of Trade today. At the opening wheat was unchangged to Vs cent higher, the July delivery showing the only change; corn was unchanged to Vi cent higher, and oats were off V 4 cent to Vs cent up. Provisions were about unchanged. Weather and crop condition reports from European wheat districts have been generally unfavorable, and it is expected that much of the grain for continental consumption must be imported from the United States. Crop conditions here are excellent and bumper crops of winter wheat are expected. Liverpool quotations were steady today. Stocks of old com, which must be used to fill all contracts made now, are decreasing rapidly and a large decrease in the visible supply report out today is expected. Conditions for the new crop are excellent. Material improvement in the new crop of oats was reported today, but there was no other news of significance. Chicago Grain Table —May 21WHEAT— Prev. High.
