HEAVY SELLING SENDS FUTURE PRICESJLOWER Rains Add Bearish Note to Crop Reports; Corn Irregular. BY HAROLD E. RAINVILLE United Press Staff Correspondent CHICAGO, March 20—Starting uncertainly but about steady, wheat dropped sharply on the Board of Trade under an increase of pressure. Reports from the growing a-eas were bearish with further precipitation in the most needed sections. Foreign markets held steady early but weakened later. Corn was under more pressure and somewhat uneven at the start, selling off with wheat. Trade was light and the market easily influenced. Support was absent. Oats was firm, but met increased pressure when wheat and corn eased. At the opening old wheat was J s cent higher, new wheat was unchanged to V$ cent lower; corn was V*. cent lower to Vk cent higher, and oats were % cent higher. Provisions were slow and somewhat easy. Sentiment Is Bearish The English market lost % cent by mid-afternoon, about as expected, but showed fair resistance on good European demand. Buenos Aires opened sharply lower, but just before noon was down only Vi cent compared with Wednesday. Sentiment in wheat continues bearish but world markets lately have appeared stabilized at a point unfavorable to the producer. The disposition is to press the selling side on budges, keeping the market nervous and uncertain. Action of the farm board in respect to the new crop futures is being watched, but as yet no statement of intent has been made. Rains in Canada and rain and snow in the southwest Thursday and last night were viewed as bearish. Com Options Strong The end of the winter run of cash to market is regarded as being near. Receipts in the southwest may hold up as winter passes, releasing com not needed for feed, which may then be marketed. Corn is fundamentally strong but the uncertainty in wheat depresses the market. Oats failed to ease with the other grains Thursday. The cash situation is strong and acts as a retarding influence on declines. NEW YORK COFFEE RANGE High. Low. Close.

Press Financial Editor NEW YORK, March 20.—Leading stocks maintained a firm tone on the Stock Exchange today, holding gains of fractions to 2 points. Trading quieted down after early activity. At the outset the list was steady. United States Steel and General Motors again led a rise. Before the end of the first hour selling came into the market and brought irregularity. Another rally followed, but toward noon pressure in special issues again caused traders to exercise caution. United States Steel ranged between 150% and 149%, holding near the latter level around noon where it was off %. General Motors made anew high at 47% and held most of the gain. New York Central rose 1% to 111 to feature its division. Utilities were slightly easier. International Nickel rose in the metals o.i reports earnings were increasing. Drug, Inc., was a feature of the special issues, rising to anew 1931 high at 78%. Radio-Keith-Orpheum

Read the results from these underlying stocks over the past 10 years as applied to these Trust Shares * * * The stocks in the accompanying list underlie each unit of Trustee Standard Investment Shares Series D. During the past ten years the dividends, splitups, and rights declared by the underly- . ing companies and expressed in terms of these Trust Shares returned from 19% to 38% annually upon cost — an average of 30% per year for the full period. This statistical record, unmatched so far as has been determined, is the product of the technical expertness entering into the construction of Trustee Standard Investment Shares Series D. Many arc the points of superiority in this security; two are particularly important in their effect upon return to the investor: (l) No Unproductive Capital: There is no “Reserve Fund” tying up 8% to 10% of your investment at low interest rates. After paying your small proportion of the initial cost of creating and distributing the shares (as with all Fixed Trusts) 100% of the invested capital is placed at work in the common stocks of these thirty-five corporations, and thus shares in their high earnings. The longer the investment is held the greater this advantage becomes.
made anew high in. the. amusements at 24, up %. Montgomery Ward, Johns Manville, Allied Chemical, American Can, Vanadium, Sears Roebuck and Radio Corporation ruled firm, 1 to more than 2 points above the previous close. Selling broke out in the alcohol stocks near noon. National Distillers sold down to 32%, off U, while United States Industrial Alcohol lost nearly 6 points to 63%. Other weak spots included National Cash Register, which made anew low for the year at 28%, off 1%, and Crucible at 49. off 3%, also anew 1931 low. Selling in the latter issue was caused by omission of the dividend due at this time. Traders were looking for a reduction in the National Cash payment. Call money continued easy, renewing at 1% per cent and holding at that rate.

(2) Dollar Diversification: As nearly as practicable an equal proportion of capital is invested in each stock. Furthermore, the percentage of investment as to railroads, utilities, oils and industrials is in proportion to their potential growth and earning power and their relative importance in coming years of industrial development. These two features result in maximum earning power and true investment balance , Obviously the maximum yield and appreciation will be obtained by those who take advantage of present low market prices. ## # / These Trust Shares are distributed nationally by banks and responsible security houses.

CART. DOLLAR, 84 TODAY, SEES BUSINESS GAIN Shipping Empire Master Says Pacific Ports Will Lead in Upturn. By United Press SAN FRANCISCO. March 30. Captain Robert Dollar, one time $6-a-month factory boy, who became the master of a shipping venture that liuked the east and west, surveyed the Pacific ocean on his eighty-seventh birthday today, and declared its trade surface was “hardly scratched.’ 4 Down to work a little after 8, as usual, Captain Dollar gazd r the harbor from which he directed his first business successes forty-three years ago, leaned back in a big chair and declared that “things are kind of lumpy, but are getting better.” “All the ports on the Pacific are going ahead,” he said. “I don't think any of them will go back. Times improve in lumps, and the Pacific trade will be right in front.'? Not many years, ago Captain Dollar defied the business seers who said a round-the-world freight and passenger service would not pay. He established the first service of this kind—and he made it pay.
