By United Press NEW YORK, Nov. 30.—The New York stock market gave a good demonstration of its strength today when prices rallied in the closing hour after earlier setbacks and the entire list closed strong, with most issues higher. By United Press NEW YORK, Nov. 30.—Prices declined in many industrial issues on the Stock Exchange today, induced by io per cent call money, nervousness over the federal reserve brokerage loan report and a 50 per cent break in Canadian Marconi on the curb. Trading was at a rate slightly less than 7,000,000 shares. Radio Corporation dropped to 374, compared with its high of 400 made Wednesday; Wright Aero lost 13 points and General Motors got below 212. Yellow truck lost more than 6 points and a long list sold off a point or two. Most of the losses were in the highly speculative shares which have enjoyed the best buying of late. There appeared to be no forced selling, and while the more volatile leaders were placed under pressure new leaders appeared. New York Central was whirled to anew high with a gain of 9 points, holding most of it. Pennsylvania was carried up more than 3 points to anew high. Missouri, Kansas Texas made anew high in active turnover, but reacted toward the close.

In the Stock Market
(By Thomson & McKinnon) NEW YORK, Nov. 30.—From the appearance of the market today, from the tremendous volume of business, one would imagine that everyone interested in the market was trying to do two days trading ip one to compensate for the delightful Holiday. One would have a right to ask the question, what is it all about, what Is the basis for such an enormous daily turnover in the stock market. Millions of people buying stocks daily, people of this as well as .of other countries of the world. The one concern seems to be to buy something and then find out what it is that was bought. Money does not mean much these days, but it may mean a great deal on a day when it is wanted. Interest rates don’t mean much but they will on the days when one must pay and will find no trading profits to offset it. Values don’t mean much today, but they will when the time comes that anew buyer will be wanted. Everything nowadays is the future. We are going to have this and we arc going to have that. , This company will make so much and that company will make so much. Nothing is said as to how much is now being made. The monotony of it all was relieved today by the head of one company who had tne courage to publicly announce that the stock of his company wag quoted far above its worth. It would be well if this example was followed by others, for surely there will come a day when there will be a sudden realization and then will come the inevitable deflation with all the pain and sorrow that accompany it. Be as optimistic as you please, but be sure to have a lot of surplus cash on hand.

In the Cotton Market
(By Thompson & McKinnon) NEW YORK. Nov. 30.—The cotton market failed to make mnch progress this morning. Favorable cables and additional purchases by those friendly to prices accounted lor nothing more than about 10 points above the previous close and this price was followed by a reaction. Next week will be concluded with the final government report for the year. It seems unavoidable that those only temporarily interested in the staple should take their profits before its publication. It is a market factor and as such deserves mention. We think its effect will be to take the edge off bulli hsenthusiasm and throw the market into a trading position in which those who are interested in quick profits will fare better than those who take a more comprehensive view of the situation. Asa basic proposition we are still bullish on prices. NEW ORLEANS High. Low. Close. January 20.17 19.75 19.76 May 20.19 19.79 19.81 December 20.10 19.67 19.66 NEW YORK High. Low. Close.

BEARS POUND GRAIN PRICES DOWN SLIGHTLY Corn, Wheat Fractionally Lower as Bulls Go Into Hiding. By United Press CHICAGO, Nov. 30.—Bearish sentiment prevailed on the Board of Trade today and wheat was forced fractionally lower. Com bulls also went into hiding while prices worked downward. Oats alone were Arm. Wheat closed % cent lower, corn was down % cent to % cent and oats was unchanged to % cent off. Provisions were unevenly lower. December and March wheat were sold heavily, but reports of damaging rains in the north of Argentina, where the harvest is progressing, patially offset the weakness. There was considerable selling of December against buying of May. Liverpool was sharply lower, due to the weight of Argentine offerings. Buying of December against sales of May featured the trade in corn. The active month suffered from liquidation at the start, but rallied despite the largest receipts of the season. Rain and snow in lowa and Nebraska encouraged buying early. Toward the close, however, a forecast of clear weather induced selling. Oats were quiet and without feature.

Tuesday—B to midnight. , Saturday—6 to midnight. Wednesday—B to 10 and 11 to Sunday—6 to 10. midnight. Daylight broadcasting will be the Thursday—6:3o to 8 and 10 to 11. same as in the past. Limitation of night broadcasting is due to the division of time with WCWK, Ft. Wayne, and WSBT, South Bend, which are operating on the same length, 1.230 kilocycles, 500 watts, during the night hours. During the daytime WFBM broadcasts on a frequency of 1,050 kilocycles, 285.6 watts. tt n u tt u tt ‘‘The Red Mill,” a musical comedy in two acts by Victor Herbert, will be produced as the Philco hour feature, with Jessica Dragonette and Colin O’More in the leading roles, through the NBC system, Saturday night at 8 o’clock. tt u u tt tt tt Many letters have been received by WFBM from listeners who have wondered why a radio program bears such an odd name as the kilowatt hour.

By United Press NEW YORK, Dec. I.—Miss Winifred Sackville Stoner’s charges of assault preferred against Robert H. Loeb, stock Exchange broker, were prompted by “hysterical irresponsibility,” Harold H. Herts, Loeb’s lawyer said in a statement. Miss Stoner had Loeb arrested after she said he knocked her down in an apartment house lobby and kicked her during an argument over a bracelet she had asked him to repair. She asserted she saw the bracelet on the arm of Loeb’s companion. Loeb denied the charges, but was ordered to appear later when Miss Stoner said she was ill and did noli feel like pressing the case at that moment. Under anew order issued to the police of England and Wales, the tails of stray dogs must be measured so that the figure may appear in the “identity certificate” of the dog.
