Aug. 19.—Snowyhaired ‘ Pop." bartender of bygone days, who defied the Rockefellers and held up Radio Gity’s $250,000,000 development by clinging to a ground floor lease, has surrendered. He was the last of the holdouts, so work on New York's great projected amusement center may proceed rapidly. "Pop" will vacate Thursday, he announced today. The announcement was made through a peephole he has used for years in conversing with strangers on his property, leased originally, by the way, for operation of a "restaurant, laundry or fruit store.**

S. Price. By United Picks PARIS, Aug. 19.—The Tardieu plan of revalorization of wheat and other French farm products reached its climax today when wheat touched 162 francs a quintal, or approximately $1.82 a bushel. The rise was achieved in spite of an abundant harvest throughout the country. Thus French farmers are obtaining more than three times as much for their wheat as are American and Canadian growers. Complete crop statistics were not available, but government departments said they would not be deficient. France may have to import 20 per cent of her requirements before next harvest, but the Tardieu plan has foreseen that and has an import-license plan already in operation to bring in the required grain. FTench farmers and bankers are convinced that much of the wealth of the country is due to the revalorized harvests and the prestige of the former premier, Andre Tardieu, has beep greatly increased. Wheat growers now form 48 per cent of the French population, and upon their harvests defends the stability of the French domestic markets. It was to strengthen domestic commerce that the government applied the Tardieu scheme, which has satisfied the farmers and eliminated the necessity of government aid.

HEAVY SELLING DRIVES RAILS DOWN SHARPLY Oils Continue Upward Pace With Rest of List Unevenly Off.

Average Stock Prices

Average ol thirty Industrials for Tuesday was 141.26. ud .28. Average of twentv rails was 69.26. off .73. Average of twentv utilities was 57.70. up .02. Average of forty bonds was 93.20. off .23. BY ELMER C. WALZER United Press Financial Editor NEW YORK, Aug. 19.—Selling came into the railroad group on the Stock Exchange today, unsettling the list after an early advance. Oil shares were unaffected. They continued to monopolize the tape with large blocks at rising prices. The general industrial list dipped fraction to a point below the previous close. Selling in rails was not heavy, but it was persistent. Traders were disappointed over the showing in the car loadings report for the week ended Aug. 8, issued today. This showed a decline of 22,513 cars from the preceding week and a drop of 169,377 cars from the corresponding 1930 week. Motor Shares Sold At this time of year car loadings should be experiencing a seasonal rise on account of crop movement in the west. Failure of this movement to develop was a sharp disappointment and traders unloaded New York Central, which dipped to off %, and Union Pacific to 143, off 2. Pennsylvania equaled its low for the last ten years at 20U 3 and then regained its loss. Further selling came into General Motors and the issue dipped to 36 % off 3 /2. This liquidation was said to be coming from the automobile centers where banking difficulties were forcing many to sell their stock to raise funds. Oils Hold Gain Woolworth met profit-taking in the mercantile group and eased to 69%. Steel common was down a fraction despite brighter reports from the steel industry. Radio, American Can, Johns Manville, Columbian Carbon and a long list of others registered losses ranging to a point. In the oil group, Ohio Oil maintained a point gain as did Standard of New Jersey and Texas Corporation. The remainder of the list was up fractions to a point. Cotton futures broke to new lows for 26 years. Bonds were irregular with selling in domestic rails. Oil issues held firm on strength in their stocks.

RAILS PETITION FOR SYSTEM CHANGES

B. & 0. Asks Permission to Take Over Control of Two Roads. WASHINGTON, Aug. 19.—The Baltimore & Ohio Railroad Company today asked the interstate commerce commission for permission to take over and operate the Buffalo, Rochester & Pittsburgh Railroad Company and the Buffalo & Susquehanna Railroad Company as part of its own system. The company had previously applied for authority to lease the properties, of which it holds a controlling interest. Under previous authority, however, it was obliged to maintain separate corporate identities for the other companies. About 759 miles of railway are involved. The Louisiana,’Arkansas & Texas Railroad Company today asked the interstate commerce commission

On request, sent with stamped addressed envelope, Mr. Ripley will furnish proof of anything depicted by him.

Following is the explanation of Ripley’s "Believe It or Not,” which appeared in Tuesday’s Times: The Seventeen-Domcd Mosque of the Camel—The Djama Negu (Mosque of the Camel) in Tripoli, stands on the spot where Anan el Htab Hanum the prophet’s mother-in-law, is reputed to have spent a night. The mosque more properly commemorates the presence of the venerable lady’s saintly camel, and the curious domes to the number of seventeen, resemble the camel’s humps in shape. The position of the mother-in-law of the prophet is exceptional in the high regard in which she is held by the faithful. The lot of the common run of mother-in-law is an unbelievable one in the East. Thursday—" The Hat that Hung on a Tree for 50 Years.” freightlate HIKES OPPOSED Would Be Disastrous to Farmer, Is Testimony. By United Press WASHINGTON, Aug. 19.—Freight rate increases asked by railroads were opposed today before the interstate commerce commission by representatives of eastern farmers. Testimony was offered to the effect the 15 per cent rise would prove disastrous to the farmer and divert business from the railroads to trucks. Harry E. Wellman, Kendall (N. Y.) banker and farmer, said operation of his farm in recent years had shown a loss without allowances for depreciation or for his own labor, Wellman’s farm was used by the agriculture department in 1930 to establish a standard farm accounting system. C. A. Roper, representing the Mississippi vegetable shippers’ bureau, testified that increased rates previously established by some roads in his area had caused a reduction in planting. G. Hale Harrison, president of Harrison Nurseries, Inc., Berlin, Md., said he was forced "to ship by trucks or not at all" to the metropolitan New York markets. Chicago Stocks Opening (By James T.

for permission to operate over the tracks of the Missouri, Kansas & Texas Railroad Company between Greenville and Dallas, Tex., a distance of about fifty-four miles. The arrangement, it was explained, gives the former line the advantage of a Dallas terminal. It will pay $1 per train mile for each train. The Chicago, Burlington & Quincy and the Chicago, Rock Island & Pacific Railroad Companies today jointly asked the interstate commerce commission for authority to carry out an agrement by which the Burlington would operate its trains over the Rock Island tracks between Beatrice and Rockford, Neb. The application also requests permision for the Burlington to use the Rock Island's terminal facilities at Rockford, 111., to construct necessary connecting trackage and to permit the Burlington to abandon its existing line paralleling that of the Rock Island.

WHEAT MAKES GOOD GAINS ON FOREIGN NEWS Favorable Weather Reports Carry Corn to New Low Figures. BY HAROLD E. RAINVILLE United Press Staff Correspondent CHICAGO, Aug. 19.—Reflecting the strength abroad, wheat gained a good fraction on scattered buying as the Board of Trade opened today. There was little pressure at the start. Liverpool was strong on the persistent wet w’eather in Europe and on the better demand. Favorable weather and further liquidation carried September and March corn to new lows on the crop with all months opening lower. Oats followed corn and was off but failed to enter new ground. At the opening wheat was 7* to % cent higher, corn was unchanged to % cent lower and oats were unchanged to % cent off. Provisions were very slow. Liverpool Much Stronger Recovering from a weak opening, Liverpool was much stronger than expected and gained % to % cent by mid afternoon. Liquidation of September wheat has started with longs getting out of their grain or transferring to the deferred months, particularly May, The open interest in September is around 39,000,000 bushels. Decreases in acreage of all the leading producing countries is helping to offset the liquidation. Plentiful supplies do not permit any ideas of a shortage and opposition met all advances, holding the market to a narrow range. Corn Is Liquidated September corn also is being liquidated heavily and the price has fallen about 7 cents in the last j three weeks. The cash market is j rather weak. Glowing prospects for the new crop of corn have caused heavier shipments of old corn as the farmers become more sure of their harvest. The next government report, due early In September, is expected to show a large increase over two weeks ago. The belt apparently | received good, general rains last | night but temperatures remain | high. Oats are declining from the same | causes that are affecting the other 1 grains, namely t liquidation of Sep- ! tember. Not much attention is being paid to news and the market is mainly quiet.
