U. S. SPENDING 100 MILLIONS IN PUBLIC BUILDING • Construction Program Is Greatest in History of Nation. Bu United Press WASHINGTON, Oct. 9. —Mors than $100,000,000 in new public building contracts will be let by the treasury in 1930 in carrying out an expanded building program, which the administration plans as an aid to business recovery. Answering a Republican congiessional critic who wrote President Hoover recently complaining that the treasury is not expediting the enlarged building program as rapidly as possible, Perry K. Heath, assistant treasury secretary, today made public figures showing greater public building activity than ever before. “Since the foundation of the United States we never have had a building program of such magnitude as is now in progress,” Heath said. In the present calendar year, the treasury has awarded sixty-six contracts for buildings to cost $43,000,000 and plans to let forty-nine additional contracts aggregating $30,000,000 in the remaining three months of 1930. To this $73,000,000 must be added the cost of land which will bring the total above $100,000,000 this year.

In the Stock Market
(Bv Thomson & McKinnon t NEW YORK. Oct. 9.—While the action of the stock market is discouraging, we question the logic of permitting it to be the guiding influence. It is easy to sink in the mire of pessimism, and lose sight of the true character of business. Unsatisfactory as business may seem, it is not commensurate with the gloom prevailing in market circles. For instance, disappointment was quite apparent over the September steel production. Is our memory so short that we have forgotten 4 ~ other slack years it fell much lower? In July, 1924, it was a million tons, and in July, 1921, two million tons less than that of last month. An executive of one of the largest retail concerns in the country says distress merchandise has practically disappeared, and that his buyers have iound manufacturers delayed in making deliveries because of shortages of raw materials. Can we say that the optimism of industrial leaders is entirely propaganda? The consensus opinion of prominent executives in session at the manufacturers conference is that business is showing signs of returning to a normal, healthy state. Security liquidation naturally will have to run its course. The culmination, however, may come quite unexpectedly. Births Girls Harry and Rosela Ellis, 1520 Kennlngton.

WHEAT SHOWS FIRM TONE ON NEWS Colder Weather in Argentina Boosts Liverpool Mart; Corn Strong. Bu United Press CHICAGO, Oct. 9.—Wheat opened firm to higher on the Board of Trade today with the strength at Liverpool a supporting factor, but most traders exercising caution with one eye cocked on the Stock Exchange. The colder weather in the Argentine gave Liverpool an advance but heavy Russian shipments served as a check. Com was firm with wheat and oats also advanced fractionally. Liverpool Stronger At the opening, wheat was Ljc lower to Tic higher, corn was V to Tic higher, and oats were %c higher. Provisions were steady. Liverpool opened much stronger than expected and was T 4 to Tic higher at mid-afternoon. While traders believe in the investment merit of wheat at the present levels, a majority see no reason for a sustained advance. The weakness in th security market undermines the confidence of wheat traders and militates against an advance in the latter, even though the levels are below the cost of production. The situation needs clarifying, but must wait for an improvement in general business conditions. Favor Bull Side Local operators favor the bull side of corn and that grain shows stubborn resistance to the weakness occasioned by the unsettlernent in wheat. The cash sales of 330,000 bushels Wednesday were the largest in some time and show the shortage

HIGHWAY LOAN PAY DEMANDED State Treasurer to Retain Gasoline Tax Fund. Whether commissioners want to or not the state highway commission must start repayment of its $1,600,000 loan from the cities, counties and towns gasoline tax funds In December. Ultimatum to this effect has been delivered by Mrs. Grace Banta Reynolds, state treasurer, who will withhold gasoline tax funds as repayment of the loan. When commissioners secured the original loan through the state finance board they agreed to begin repayment not later than December. But because they have exceeded their $22,000,000 budget during the first fiscal year of Director John J. Brown’s administration they found that even the $1,600,000 did not eliminate their financial embarrassment. Certificates of Indebtedness were issued contractors and it was proposed to delay the loan repayment until funds came to the department from the sale of the 1931 automobile license plates.
