B—Active selling of leading issues on the stock exchange today brought prices down 1 to 6 points in nearly every issue traded and clipped millions from stock exchange value of the various shares. Trading picked up in activity for a time when traders were unloading at random, but tickers had the situation in control and around noon the decline appeared to have spent Itself for the time being. However, the rallies that ensued were not vigorous and prices drifted about not far from their lows of the day. which in a few instances were new lows for the year or longer. Warner Unloaded
Passing of its common stock dividend by Warner Brothers Pictures was the principal incentive to the sellers. They unloaded Warner without regard to price and the issue broke to 28. off 6' from the previous close. Warner came out in long strings and featured in activity. The Warner incident was only one of the many factors in the selling, however. Others included further fears of the drought depredations, a decline of 3 per cent in United States Steel production in the Pittsburgh area, and a decline of 47 per cent in automobile production in July as compared with July, 1929. The steel decline brought out heavy offerings of United States Steel, the issue declining to 163%, off 3 points before support was forthcoming. Other steels followed the leader downward. Vanadium selling at 82T*. off 5%, and Bethlehem at 81'*, off IH. Utilities Sell Off Southern Railway broke to 78*, off l 7 *, and anew low since 1925, and other rails followed it to lower ground. High-priced and speculative industrials made wide breaks. Eastman lost 5% points. Allied Chemical 6. Westinghouse Electric nearly 4, Case 4'i, and Worthington Pump 7. Utilities continued their down swing, but losses did not exceed 3 points. Coppers sagged off. as did chemical shares, foods, oils and special issues. Call money renewed at 2 per cent and the tone was steady. Sales at 1(1:30 a. m. totaled 258,600, against 271.600 shares Thursday in the same period. Sales to noon totaled 1,378.000, against 859,700 Thursday. NEW TORK COFFEE RANGE —Aug. 7 High. Low. Close. March 5.72 5.70 5.70 May 5.64 5.54 5.63 July 5.60 5 48 5.57.

STRONG CARLES SEND FUTURES MARKETHifiHER Weather News Adds Firmer Tone to Corn; Oats Move Up. Bu United Prrtt CHICAGO, Aug. 8 —Strong foreign cables encouraged a renewal of buying on the Board of Trade today and wheat prices were unevenly higher to lower. Liverpool firmed up sharply after the lower opening, a good local trade in spot wheat and the removal of hedges giving that market strength. Corn was also strong on a continuation of the drought weather, the few scattered rains having small effect. Oats moved up with corn. At the opening wheat was ?ic lower o l%c higher, corn was Uc to l*c higher and oats were 3 sc to lc higher. Provisions were strong. Liverpool Turns Up
Opening lower as expected, liverpool turned quickly at midsession and recovered practically all the loss, standing *c to %c lower at mid-afternoon. Professionals seeking profits caused the collapse of the market late Thursday. The volume of business was tremendous, more than 150,000,000 bushels changing hands during the way. The trade is inclined to watch the Canadian situation closely and rust reports are getting a keen scanning. The Free-Press report is due Saturday and both sides of the line are awaiting it with interest. Situation Unchanged Corn crop experts in the field show no change in the situation, though the bottom lands are said to be in a position to recover somewhat with early rains. Fair rains Thursday and an overbought condition upset the market when profit-taking started. At the top prices were about 33 cents over the lows of July 8, and the swings were many and rapid. Weather overnight was mostly clear and warm, with little or no rainfall reported. Selling for profit by longs and cash interests with hedging of cash sales gave oats the heavy undertone. Prices drifted away with the other grains. Chicago Grain Table —Aug. 8— WHEAT— Prev. Open. High. Low. Close, close.

In the Stock Market (By Thomson & McKinnon) NEW YORK. Aug. B.—Appealing to us most strikingly In the optimistic address of Julius Barnes Is the fact which he brings out that forty million men and women are today gainfully employed in the United States. It is interesting to note that this compares with thirty-one million employed during the slump of 1921 with unemployment then placed at six million against three today Readily can one understand the potential buying power here in indicated End as Barnes points out awaiting only a sigral of confidence to be set in motion. The drop in the broken loans seems to accurately reflect the action of the stock market in the last week. The aggregate of loans, however, does serve to emphasize the liqiudated condition of the stock market- We feel the market is in a position to do much better, particularly with any sort of encouragement from business. HALF RATES ON NAY SHIPMENTS ARE ANNOUNCED B. & 0., Pennsy Offer Cut to Relieve Crisis in Stock Feeding. E,H Times Special WASHINGTON, Aug. B.—Half rates for shipping of hay from the Mississippi river to Indiana were announced today by the Ba®more & Ohio and Pennsylvania railways to save Indiana’s livestock in the worst drought in history. At the same time, the two railways announced Indiana roads would be asked to cut freight rates on hay in half for trans-shipment to various points in Indiana from Hoosier terminals of the two roads. Present Rates sl6 a Ton The reduction, temporary, will be acted upon at once by the interstate commerce commission. Present rates to Indiana from Kansas are sl6 a ton, hay costing sl4 a ton in Kansas. Congressman Louis Ludlow, with interstate commerce commission officials, today laid before officials of the two roads a plea for immediate action on freight rate reductions after receipt by Ludlow of a telegram from William H. Settle, Indianapolis, president of the Indiana Farm Bureau Federation.
Drought Conditions ‘Alarming’ The telegram declared drought conditions in Indiana are “alarming” and pointed out seven Indiana counties had appealed to the farm bureau federation today for aid in getting Kansas hay supplies. Hay is selling at sl4 a ton in Kansas, but prevailing freight rates are sl6 a ton more. Settle declared in his telegram, Indiana farmers can not afford to pay more than S2O a ton. He declared the federation would give its buying services free to the farmers. Board Must Take Charge Following conferences, in which Daniel Willard of the Big Four railway, assured Ludlow and commission members of his road’s co-oper-ation, Ludlow telegraphed Settle that the farm bureau federation must take charge of distribution of the low rate hay supplies to prevent the cheap hay from getting into hands of speculators. Senator Fess of Ohio today reported to the interstate commerce commission that drought damage in his state exceeds the Mississippi river flood damage in southern states last fall and asked immediate action looking toward relief of the stricken farmers.
