BY ELMER C. WALZER United Press Financial Editor NEW YORK, Feb. 23.—A drop of 15 V* points in Auburn Automobile on top of a loss of 10 points in this ; issue Saturday unsettled the stock market for a brief period in the early trading today. The general list performed mildly compared with Auburn. Opening moderately lower, leading issues slipped back fractionally and then met support. Toward noon the whole market was showing greater resistance and the best stocks made moderate advances from the lows. Even Auburn, that football of the bears and bulls alike, moved up from its low of 93 and around noon was 96, off 12bi points from the ! previous close. The thin market in Auburn kept the specialist busy trying to make an orderly market. At times the issue dropped more than a point between sales and it was reported j members of the governing committee of the Stock Exchange were on hand to supervise the transactions j in the issue. Sales Arc Heavy Sales in Auburn in the first half hour totaled 18,100 shares, or at the rate of more than 180,000 shares for a full day, far more than the floating supply of the issue. Along with the drop in Auburn came many grotesque stories of a sharp decline in sales of the company, a large block of William Wrigley Jr. estate stock overhanging the market, a bear coup, lack of a short interest, Stock Exchange investigation and others more or less plausible. As usual, the Stock Exchange would make no comment. It was believed the report concerning the supervision of the governing committee was true, as that body always has its members hovering about when a stock is performing wildly. Auburn opened at 10714, off a point from Saturday’s close. Then followed the rapid decline until it hit 93, off 1514 points. Its range for this year so far has been between 9114 and 151%. Steel Comes Back Other automobile shares held in a narrow range. Leading industrials did likewise and around noon prices were mixed with gains and losses about evenly divided. Steel common touched 4714 in the early trading, off a point and around noon was back to the previous close of 4814. American Can rallied to its previous close of 68% from a low of 67%. Other leaders came back to within a fraction of the previous closing levels. Local traction shares featured the utilities, Brooklyn-Manhattan Transit rising two points to 43 and Interborough Rapid Transit 1% to 11%. Railroad shares firmed up to net gains of small fractions. Trading generally was dull.

On request, sent with stamped, addressed envelope, Mr. Ripley Will furnish proof Os anything depicted by him.
Following is the explanation of Ripley’s “Believe It or Not,” which appeared in Monday’s Times: Washington’s Bicentenary—The year 46 B. C. had fourteen months, two supernumerary months having been added by Julius Caesar to initiate the Julian calendar reform. When George Washington was born the date was Feb. 11, 1731, and England and its colonies still were observing the old Julian calendar, in which the year began not Jan. 1, but on March 25. The father of our country was 20 years old (1751) when the English parliament finally adopted the Gregorian calendar, by clipping eleven days off September, 1752. In addition the beginning of the year was advanced to Jan. 1. It is an error to make the calendar reform retroactive by celebrating Washington’s birthday on Feb. 22, instead of eleven days earlier. And the same wrong application of chronological retroactivity is made in the celebration of Washington’s bicentennial in 1832 instead of 1931. The Short Circuit Beetle—The short circuit beetle (Latin name scobicia declivis) is so-called because of its habit of boring numerous holes in the aerial lead telephone cables. Short circuit then is caused by moisture entering the cable. The activity of the bettle entails great expense and trouble to the telephone companies. Tomorrow; The Tuba Player of 10,000 Funerals.

STRONG CABLE REPORTS SEND GRAINSHIGHER Bullish Foreign News Aids All Options Early in Day. BY HAROLD E. RAINVILLE United Press Staff Correspondent CHICAGO, Feb. 23. Wheat opened firm on the Board of Trade today after its extended holiday with the great strength abroad offsetting weakness in stocks and a draggy tone in com. Higher Liverpool cables reporting a better demand, the raising of the Italian milling quota on foreign wheat from 30 to between 50 and 60 per cent and bad reports from Russia and India all favored higher prices. Foreign Markets Rise Com was irregular with the nearby months weak, but the deferred deliveries firm. Oats was about steady. At the opening wheat was unchanged to Vi cent higher, corn was % cent lower to % cent higher and oats unchanged to % cent higher. Provisions were slow and steady. Liverpool made a sharp advance for the two days and was Hi to 1% cents higher at midafternoon as compared with Saturday, Winnipeg also made gains Monday. Com Sales Heavy Country sales of corn late last week were the heaviest of the season. This was due partly to an increase in the grain rates Feb. 20 and doubt is manifested whether the shipments will continue or decline as a result.
