STOCK SHARES WEAKEN AFTER INITIALJIPTURN List Turns Irreglar When Pressure Hits Special Issues.

Average Stock Prices

Average of thirty industrials for Saturday 74.45, off .55. Average of twenty rails 33.85. off 65. Average of twenty utilities 30,39, off 17. Average of forty bonds 78 82, off .16. BY ELMER C. WALZER United Press Financial Editor NEW YORK .Feb. B.—After experiencing a brief respite from selling today, the stock market again turned irregular with pressure converging on special Issues. Case was driven down to 27%, off 2Mi, and anew low for nearly a decade, while International Harvester made anew low for the present shares at 21%, off 1%. Sears-Roe-buck also made & new low for the present shares at 28%, off 1%. In ther rails Atchison made anew low since 1908 at 7314, off 1%, and Chesapeake & Ohio, anew low for the present shares at 22%, off %. Union Pacific was driven down to 66%, off 1%, on fears over the safety of the dividend. Range Is Narrow Aside from the foregoing issues, the market moved in a relatively narrow rut. Steel common held well around 39, where it was up % net. It touched 39% in the early trading. Woolworth dipped to 38%, off %, after touching 39%. Small gains were retained by American Can, Du Pont, General Motors and American Can. Utilities held around the previous close. Homestake Mining rose 1% to 121% in the gold mining shares. Commenting on the various items overhanging the market, including moratoriums, war debts, low commodity prices, tariff barriers to world trade and continuation of deflation, Moody’s today said: Care Still Needed “In all this we do not see anything calamitous or anything necessarily very long extended, but rather the necessity for taking a very sober view of stock prices still and a reason for believing that such prices have not yet ‘turned the corner.’ “What is implied is a further period of deflation and liquidation, though how long this may continue is impossible even to guess intelligently. In the meantime, every adjustment which is being made, such as rail wage reduction and the proposed building wage reduction, puts the country closer to the point where it can enjoy a good recovery, once world conditions become straightened out. They are constructive in the longer sense, but they have little bearing upon the immediate future of the markets.”

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 Saturday’s Times: The Giant’s Causeway The “Giant’s Causeway” is a picturesque promontory situated on the north coast of County Antrim, Ireland. The pillars composing it are made of columnar basalt in the shape of closely fitting, irregular hexagons, between 15 and 20 inches in diameter, and from a distance present a magnificent view. They are not unlike a causeway constructed for the purpose of enabling a giant to cross the marshy expanse of the coast. The Costly Miniature Car—A gold-and-silver-plated miniature model of the eight-cylinder racing car which won the Indianapolis auto race in 1930 was made by an automobile salesman, who spent three and one-half years on its construction. It has an eightcylinder motor that functions perfectly, as well as a complete miniature crankshaft, piston and rods, valves and cam shafts, clutch, pinion and ring gear, differential, a four-speed transmission, universal joints, four-wheel brakes, steering gear, magneto, spark plugs, intake and exhaust manifolds, and is a front-wheel-drive machine. The car is nineteen and one-half inches high and weighs fifteen and one-half pounds. The parts are of steel, brass, copper, and chrome, with the engine hood silver-plated, and the wire wheels gold-plated. This Lilliputian racer is valued by its constructor at SIO,OOO.

GRAIN FUTURES DISPLAY FIRM TRADIHGRAHGE Strong Cables, Securities Are Factors in Early Dealings. BY HAROLD E. RAINVILLE United Press Staff Correspondent CHICAGO, Feb. B.—Wheat was firm as the Board of Trade opened today, but price changes were very small. Trade was not large, but scattered buying was encouraged by the low temperatures, firmness abroad and steadiness in stocks. Liverpool was aided by a better demand, decreasing stocks and steady Argentine offers. Corn was steady and oats were barely active. At the opening wheat was unchanged to V 4 cent higher; com was unchanged to V* cent higher, and oats unchanged to % cent lower. Provisions were slow, easy. Liverpool opened higher,* as expected, and at mid-afternoon held gains of % to % cent. Producers are less willing to sell corn and as a result of the lower prices, praticularly those of Illinois and western Indiana. lowa reports a falling off in the demand from the northwest. The pit element is largely bearish. Oats rule dull with trading at a minimum. An increased cash demand is essential to improved conditions.
