B.y United Pres* NEW YORK, Aug. 10.—Bullish overnight news brought resumption of buying into the stock market in early dealings today. The opening was strong with leaders higher and some of the more speculative shares soaring several points. Bullish interpretation was placed on the retention of Pierre S. Dupont as chairman of the board of General Motors Corporation, and an increase of only\ $14,488,000 in brokerage loans. Retention of the 5 per cent rediscount rate at New York also was a factor in the buying movement. Radio opened at 178, an overnight gain of more than four points and continued strong in early dealings. Electric Auto-Lite rose three points to 82, Warner Brothers Pictures, 5% to 79%, and a long list of others spurted one or two points. G. M. C. Gains 2 General Motors moved up nearly two points to 18714 in active turnover, while U. S. Steel rose 1% points to 140% and American Can gained 1% to 93%. Montgomery Ward made a new' high. Motor shares generally were in demand. Hupp rose 1% to 58 s 4; Chrysler, 214 to 8714, and others proportionately. Oils also moved higher as did many special issues. Utilities were strong under the leadership of Consolidated Gas which rose two points to 147%. Buying of the latter followed approval of the merger with Brooklyn Edison. Describing the market, the Wall Street Journal's financial review today said: “Continuation of the • rediscount rate of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York at 5 per cent and the increase of only $14,488,000 in brokers’ loans during the week ended Aug. 8, caused an urgent covering movement in the early dealings.”

In the Stock Market

(By Thomson & McKinnon) NEW YORK, Aug. 10.—Just prior to the close of Thursday’s session, it was reported that money was coming into the market in fair supply. Does this mean that we will be able to go through today’s session without an increase in money rates? We wonder if the bull element will take advantage of this situation? It could easily happen for some of the disturbing developments which have been overhanging the market have been cleared up. The steel tonnage report will be available at noon and while it is expected to show a decline from last month, it will probably be better than the corresponding month of last year. Generally, conditions, but one, are good, that of course, is money, and when an examination is made of the brokers’ loan figure?, the fact stands out in bold relief that the banks are continuing their policy of working with the Federal Reserve to conserve credit for commercial purposes. There is, in our opi ion, ifetle use trying to combat suen opposition. It would, therefore, seem logical to take advantage of any bulge in prices to liquidate some part of long holdings.

WHEAT FUTURES DIP 5 CENTS ON BEARiSHREPORT Major Grain in Season’s Sharpest Drop; Corn . 3 Cents Lower. By United Press CHICAGO, Aug. 10.—The influence of the strongly bearish Government crop report was reflected in all futures on the Board of Trade today. Wheat showed the most decline in what is said to be the sharpest drop of the season, but com was also sharply lower. Oats followed the downturn. Wheat opened 4% to 5% cents lower; corn was down 2% to 2% cents, and oats was off % to % cent. Provisions were about unchanged. Wheat shorts were inclined to even up Thursday before the publication of the Government report, crop estimates, however, proved exceedingly bearish, the total available supply of wheat for the season being placed at 973,000,000 bushels, as compared with 943,000,000 bushels last year. The short interest in corn was reduced somewhat but was still heavy at the close. The Government estimate put a much higher figure on the crop than in the report of July 1. Good export trade aided Thursday’s advance. The oats crop was estimated in the Government survey at 258,000,000 bushels more than last year. Heavy export sales were reported.

Minneapolis Wheat Off By United Press MINNEAPOLIS, Aug. 10.—Wheat opened nearly 5 cents lower on the 'Minneapolis Board of Trade today. September wheat dropped from $1.10% to $1.15% and December wheat fell from 1.14% to 109%. In the Grain Market IBy Thomson <Sc McKinnon) NEW YORK, Aug. 10.—Government figures on wheat are a distinct surprise, showing 40,000,000 more than the average of the private estimates and 20,000,000 more than last year. The increase in the rye crop of 4,000,000 over last month’s figures is also unexpected. The figures on corn, while in line with private estimates, are construed as bearish in comparison with the July Government report. The increase of 120,000,000 oats from the July report is another big surprise. Taken in its entirety, the report is unqualifiedly bearish on all grains.

HEAVY LOSS FACED BY GRAPE GROWERS

By Times Special WASHINGTON, Aug. 10.—Prohibition which proved an unexpected boon to the grape growing industry of the United States, now has brought it face to face with serious economic grief, representatives of the United States Department of Agriculture said today. The industry, enormously expanded to provide materials for home wine making operations, faces the prospect this year of heavy losses on what promises to be a record-breaking crop, it was stated. For the country as a whole the estimated grape crop, according to a forecast issued today by the agriculture department, is 2,845,000 tons, an increase of approximately 15 per cent over the large crop of last year. In the East the crop gives promise of being approximately 50 per cent above normal.

By Times Special WASHINGTON, Aug. 10.—When Arkansas citizens go to the polls to cast their ballots for their favorite son for Vice President of the United States, they will be faced also with the task of registering their views on the subject of evolution. The first State referendum ever to be held on an anti-evolution law takes place in Arkansas in the November election. Fundamentalists claim to have secured 20,000 signatures to petitions bring it before the voters. The proposed act would make it unlawful for any teacher in a wholly or partially tax-supported school to “teach the theory that mankind ascended or descended from a lower order of animals,” and also bans textbooks containing this theory.
