A few wider breaks occurred. Trading was exceptionally quiet | throughout the session with tickers j standing idle at times. Prices moved back and forth with intermittent rallies until the last few minutes when they turned j definitely downward. Steel com- : mon which at one time was up to 15', % point above the previous close, lost all of its gain. Other j pivotal shares followed it downward, j On only a few instances, however.; was bearish pressure sufficient to, bring exceptional declines. Celotex ; common dropped 2 points to 12 while the preferred which has not j been out for several days broke 16'* , points to 45'*. Celotex preferred dipped 10 points lower in tho last few minutes to 35, i while the common firmed up slight- j ly from the low. Utilities Hard Hit Utilities were hard hit following action in Philadelphia and Boston to reduce electricity rates. New j York City also is to have lower rates and negotiations for the change are now under way. Saving to consumers in these three cities will amount to around $10,000,000 which would be a direct loss to the companies involved. Heaviest losses were sustained by Consolidate Gas. American and Foreign Power, Standard Gas and North American, which were down 1 to 3 points.

Six Wealth-Building Periods in Thirty Years Five times since 1900, long-pull investors were invited by fundamental conditions, to lay the foundations of future fortunes. Common stocks in the strongest companies of the country's most promising industries, bought at depressed prices in 1921, 1917, 1915, 1907 and 1902 produced real profits a few years later. The sixth wealth-building period is here. Lay the foundation of future profits by investing now in FIRST AMERICAN shares, selling at about each, and participate in the country’s industrial recovery with 35 leading companies in industries possessing great future potentialities.

In the Stock Market
ißy Thomson & McKinnon* NEW YORK, Aug. I.—Largely under the influence of the weakness in the utility division, the stock market developed a hesitant tone today. Further rate reductions, giving rise to the possibility of more widespread movement of this nature, adversely affected the electric utility shares. Otherwise the market was rather barren of industrial news. Indicating that the wealth of the country has continued to grow during a period of depression, it is interesting to note that during the first six months of this year investtors have absorbed a vast amount of new securities. Os equal importance is the fact that in face of this, bond prices have steadily advanced and interest rates declined. Those in control of the financial welfare of the country have made it clear that they intend to keep credit cheap and abundant. It goes without saying that their chief concern in so doing is to foster industry and trade. Marketwise it has had the effect of diverting investment funds out of commercial channels, where interest rates are now so low, into securities which yield -more remuneratively. Bonds, as before said, have already reflected this tendency with prices but a fraction under the highest figures of the year. The trend of investment demand even now is beginning to spread to second-grade issues and taking in some preferred stocks. If running true to form, and we see no reason for thinking otherwise, security demand should ! broaden to. include the gilt-edge common stocks.

GRAIN OPTIONS LOSE GAINS IN CLOSING SALES Strength in Corn Is Main Supporting Factor; Oats Up. |Bn l nited Press \ CHICAGO, Aug. I.—Wheat closed ; sharply lower on the Board of Trade after ranging unevenly in a swing of about 2 cents. Buyers were cautious and the strength in corn was the main supporting factor. Corn was checked by profit-taking on every bulge and several times swung below the previous close but the undertone was very strong and at the last the market held good gains. Oats were firm most of the day, folj low corn closely. At the close, wheat was 1 to 1% i cents lower, corn was % to 1 % i cents higlier and oats were 1% to jl% cents higher. Provisions were ! more than 25 points higher. Reversing itself sharply, Liverpool closed % to % cent higher, aside from the confirmation of a large export business Thursday, there was no special news during the morning. Trading quieted down after the private estimates were received. Cash prices were unchanged. Receipts were 378 cars. The private estimates on the corn crop were fully as bullish as expected, showing a deterioration of 400,000.000 bushels since a month ago. The reports indicated a further reduction might still be seen if the weather did not change shortly. The crop condition was placed at 69.3. At midmorning prices showed good fractional advances after having set anew high on the present movement at the start. Cash prices were % cent higher. Receipts were 104 cars. The estimates on oats were bearish but less so than had been expected, and this with the strength in corn gave the market a substantial rise during the morning. The trade was without any special feature. Cash prices were unchanged. Receipts were 147 cars. DROP CAPONE CHARGES MIAMI, Fla., Aug. I.—Vagrancy charges long pending here aganist Scar face A1 Capone and several companions were dismissed in criminal court today and prosecuting counsel announced no further information would be filed in the matter.
