Average Stock Prices

.*7iraft* of thirty industrials 'or Thursday was 183.07. off 2.66. Average of twenty rails was 113.68. off .86. Average of twenty utilities was 96.38. off 85. Average of forty bonds was 96.03. up .02. . Hu United Press NEW YORK, Oct. 31.—Another wave of liquidation swept over the stock market today. According to preliminary calculation the Dow, Jones & Cos. industrial average declined 5.05 to 183.02, and the railroad average 3.02 to 110.86. Sales for the session totaled 2,249,195 shares, compared with 1,913,731 shares Thursday. Values were slowly whittled away until many issues had descended to new lows for the last two years. Trading picked up as the close neared. A slight rally in the last few minutes brought some of the leaders above their lows of the day which were 1 to 13 points below the previous close. Chemical Slumps Allied Chemical dropped to 194, off 13 points, and anew low since 1928, before meeting any support. Westinghouse Electric broke below 100. to anew low since 1928. Radio Corporation made anew low for the present shares. Auburn Auto touched a low of 64 l i, off 5%, contrasted with its high for the year of 26311. The selling was a follow up of Thursday’s weakness. It was brought about to a great extent by a bearish statement made by Eugene G. Grace, president of Bethlehem Steel Corporation, in announcing the earnings of his company of 63 cents a share for the third quarter, an amount 12 cents under the 75-cent a share dividend requirement for ihat period. Grace said: • Money Is Easy “Business is not picking up a bit. There is nothing to indicate any gain in November, and we have not felt any improvement for the first quarter of 1931.” This statement worked against Bethlehem and the issue broke to anew low for the year. It was in turn bearish for the steel shares in general. United States Steel came near its low for the last two years, touching off 3 points, before meeting any resistance. Before the rallying tendencies displayed in the last few minutes American Can, Columbian Carbon, Westinghouse Electric, Case, A. Byers, IXi Pont, Corn Products, Eastman Kodak, Western Union, American Telephone, Public Service. New York Central, Missouri Pacific, American and Foreign Power, North American, International Telephone and a long list of other issues had been driven down 1 to 5 points.

In the Cotton Markets

(Bv Thomson & McKinnon) NEW YORK, Oct. 31.—The cotton market was a modest affair this morning. It started about 5 points lower and at 11:30 a. m. had worked up level with the previous close. The news tickers said Chairman Legge thought cotton would gradually work higher and that acreage reduction next year is an emergency proposition. A big uptown selling agency says business is better than for some time. Mills are buying and southern selling is decreasing, but still meets requirements, except occasionally when outside buying occurs. In a technical way it is probably true that shorts are fairly well covered, but the market shows no weakness as the result. There was some good buying in the early afternoon, but holders utilized it to secure profits and prices at 1:15 p. m. were 8 to 9 points lower on the day. As we said yesterday, we are not ready to resume our aggressive attitude on the. market for the present.
