LACK OF BIDS STIRS HOOVER’S IRE ON SHOALS Opposition to Bill Added by Complete Absence of Offers. By United Press WASHINGTON, March 2.—President Hoover has received no offer of a bid to lease the Muscle Shoals fertilizer plant, and expects none before congress adjourns, it was learned today at the White House. The President has received no communication from Henry Ford who is being ui;ged by Alabama officials to bid, it was said. Absence of private offers for the project was understood to have heightened Mr. Hoover’s opposition to the Muscle Shoals bill because it increases the possibility the government would have to operate the project. The war department has not yet completed its investigation of the bill and there is little prospect of Mr. Hoover sending his expected veto message to congress before Tuesday or Wednesday, the White House indicated. Mr. Hoover must await recommendations from the department before he can decide what action he is going to take, it was said. A similar delay likewise has struck the third Wagner employment bill, which likewise appears to be marked for presidential disapproval. The labor department has been unable to complete its inquiry into the measure. The bill is subject to pocket veto unless the President expresses himself before noon March 4. At the White House today, it was said there was no indication whether Mr. Hoover would be able to act within the alloted time. The bill provides a national system of employment agencies in cooperation with the states, the federal government furnishing half the funds and the states the other half.

Average Stock Prices

Average price of thirty Industrials for Saturday was 189.66. off .68. Average of twenty rails was 109.49 off 1.30. Average of twenty utilities wes 71.61. off .49. Average of forty bonds - 96.31. off .05. BY ELMER U. WALZER r’ni'efl Fress ""'■'an/'ial Editor NEW YORK, March 2.—A sharp break in New York Centra, and weakness in the railroad group generally arrested a substantial ac vance led by motor shares on the stock market in the early afternoon. New York Central broke more than 5 points to around 120 and other carriers sold off fractions to 3 points. This weakness precipitated selling that drove industrials, utilities and special issues down 1 to 5 points below the previous close. Around 2 p.m. the list was showing signs of being oversold and special issues were making strides toward regaining all their losses. Auburn Auto which touched 215 in early trading, dropped 10 points to 205 and then rallied from that level. United States Steel dropped 3 points from 149 to 146. and was rallying from the latter figure as the fifth hour approached. Other leaders made similar swings.

Following is the explanation of Ripley’s ‘Believe It or Not” which appeared in Saturday’s Times: Harry Greb won a Championship after losing Sight in One Eye —Harry Greb, v/hose real name was Berg, started his ring career in 1913. Until his recent demise, it was not known that he had lost the sight in his right eye as a result of an injury received in the ring: many years ago.

RAINS HAVE NOT ENDED DROUGHT Conditions Only Relieved Diring February. By Science Service WASHINGTON, March 2—February rains have relieved, but not ended, the unprecedented drought conditions which have prevailed over wide areas of the United States as a result of the unusual deficiency in rainfall during 1930 and January, 1931. Reports to the United States weather bureau for the first twentyfive days of February reveal that despite the substantial heavy rains falling early in the month over large sections of the persistently dry areas of the country, there still is a moisture deficiency in many regions. In the Ohio valley states the rainfall for the twenty-five-day period was 70 to 90 per cent of normal. The middle and southern Atlantic states had less than half their normal quota of rain during this same period, while the upper Mississippi region had less than onefourth the average precipitation for this period. Normal to more than twrice normal rainfall was enjoyed by Tennessee, southern Missouri, Arknasas, Oklahoma and Texas, however. APPOINTEE IGNORED Senate Fails to Act on Hoover Nomination.

WEAK SUPPORT SENDS WHEAT PRICES LOWER Liverpool Shows Weak Tone on Cheap Offerings in Foreign Trade. CHICAGO, March 2. Wheat opened fractionally lower on the Board of Trade today. Liverpool was easy owing to cheap Canadian and Argentine offerings, but was steady at the decline. Prices were unevenly lower with the deferred deliveries responding to the weak foreign tone. Corn was firm and a small fraction higher. Deliveries were much smaller than expected and the market was not subjected to pressure. Oats were steady with com. At the opening old wheat was % cent lower, new wheat was % to ri 8 cent lower, corn was unchanged to % cent higher and oats were unchanged to H cent up. Provisions were steady. Liverpool Lower Liverpool was about as expected today being % to %c lower at midafternoon. r "he English market is awaiting definite information as to the farm board’s export plan. Sentiment remains mixed. Low prices are no inducement to take the buying side. Private reports oi farm reserves due this morning are attracting unusual attention. ~ Tht estimates run around 125,00 bushels of wheat still in farmers’ hands. Ii it is larger it will be bearish and indicate wheat feeding was smaller than had been expected. Deliveries on contract this morning weue 4,072,000 bushels, which for the most part went to the farm board, according to the gossip on the floor Estimate Is Farce Estimates of corn on farms is above 800,000,000 bushels, which is more than a year ago, owing to the lessening feeding as a result cf the mild winter. The movement will be fairly large for the present, as farmers need funds for taxes ana spring work. The figures on oats on the farms show 400,000.000 bushels. This Is no: expected to have much effect, as ii has been largely discounted in the recent declines. The market continues to follow f the trends in the other grains. Deliveries were onlv 27.000 bushels.
