GRIDLEY United Pro** Financial Editor NEW YORK, May 13 —Persistent rjnkness in railroad stocks continued to depress the stock market today, but weakness was by no means as apparent as in the previous session. Many important railroad shares slipped to neew record low levels, but toward noon a better tone developed and the entire market refovered part of its moderate early lomm. The usual crop of rumors arrompanled the new decline in the rail issues, but there was little tangible excuse in the days news to account for unloading of carrier issue*. Pressure was heaviest on Union Pacific, which fell 2% points to 45%; Atchison, which fell 2 points to 31 1 j, and New York Central, which lost nearlv a point to 11%. Among the Van Fweringen issues Missouri Pacific preferred lost nearly 2 points to anew record low at 7 V Bond Value* Drop On the bond market, securities of the Alleghany Corporation, Van Swerlngen holding company, sold at 7 cents on the dollar. Figures made public today by the interstate commerce commission showed aggregating net operating income of 167 steam railroads in the first quarter of this year at 566.028.474, against $108,533,156 in the corresponding period of last year. Rail weakness bore heavily on the remainder of the lust. United States Steel declined to more than a point to 27"*, but later recovered slightly. American Telephone crossed 07 after reaching anew low of 96 , and similar comebacks took place in the other sections. The market at noon, however, still was below previous closing levels. Market News Scarce News developments were scarce. About the only important influence was the prospect of increased borrowing power by the governmentowned reconstruction finance corporation, which was interpreted bearishly in speculative quarters. United States government bonds, however, were able to make small gains, aided somewhat by news that the. federal reserve banks had purchased an additional $100,000,000 of these securities in the last week in its easy money policy. Railroad bonds, however, were weak in sympathy with their respective stocks. Pressure on the commodity markets lifted somewhat. both cotton and grains holding steady.

R<i Serippt- flmrnrd ,\ etrtpaprr A llionre WASHINGTON. May 13— Planks aimed at the resumption of world trade, economy, and the bulwarking of world peace today were urged upon the leader* of both parties by representative* of the Women* International League for Peace and Freedom. A delegation today waited upon Democratic Executive Director Jouett Shouse and Senator Simeon D. Fess, Republican national chairman, announcing the platform proposals they will ask the parties to iclude in their national platforms at Chicago. These Include: Revival of world trade through a lowered tariff, cancellation of debts and reparations and the recognition of the de facto government of Russia. Reduction of high taxes through greatly lessened expenditures for military and naval purposes, "which have been increased by $120,000,000 in the last five years.” Policies of constructive world peace such as membership in the world court, an agreement to consult with other governments In case of a violation of the Kellogg pact or o*.her threats against world peace, and legislation to make possible the control of traffic in arm as a necessary part of the outlawry of war. BESEECH LAWMAKERS TO CUT U. S. EXPENSE County Tax Reduction Group Heads Write Indiana Senators. Plea for reduction of governmental expenses to conform with taxpayers’ ability to pay, was sounded by officials of the Marion County Association for Tax Reduction in a letter today to Senators James E. Watson and Arthur R. Robinson and Congressman Louis Ludlow. "Thousands of our citizens have been out of employment for months and are engaged in a bitter struggle to meet the bare necessities of li.e, let alone the payment of constantly higher taxes. Hundreds of citizens see their homes jeopardized because of inability to pay the amounts assessed against them for expenses of government,” the letters read.

WHEAT SHOWS EASY TONE ON LIGHT SELLING Lack of Demand Is Chief Factor iri Opening Dip. BY HAROLD E. RAINVILLE I'nitfA Freto Staff CrrryrpwnAent CHICAGO. May IS. Deapite strong cable*, wheat price* eased in a light trade at the opening of the Board of Trade today. Scattered selling more than offset the timid supuport. Liverpool was strong on a good cash demand and bullish South American statistics as well as a change in the exchange rate. Easiness in stock* and a disinterested attitude on the part of buyers were the chief factors at ths start. Corn was about steady, but tended lower with wheat. Oats was firmer in a light trade. At th* opening wheat waa % to % cent lower, com was unchanged to % cent lower and oats unchanged to J 4 cent higher. Provisions were *teady and slow. Liverpool was stronger than expected and showed % cent lower to N cent higher at mid-afternoon. Sentiment in the grain pits remains confused as the result of the existing political and financial conditions. Observers say that the pits are devoid of any good buying power. Com hsis shown a good degree of resistance to selling pressure and finds fair support on any dip of consequence. The cash market is quiet. The shipping demand for oat* is being maintalhed In fair volume. 31.000 bushels being taken Thursday. Chicago Grain Range - Msy 18— WHEAT- Pr* v - High. Low. 11:00. elo.

SMOOT FIRES OPENING BLASY IN YAX OEBAYE Speedy Senate Action to Revive Business. Demand of Finance Chairman. RY LYLE WILSON United Press fitaff Cerrenimndea* WASHINGTON, May 13—Chairman Reed Smoot of the senate finance committee today opened th* $1,000,000,000 tax bill debate in th 9 senate with a plea for speedy en- : actment to end business uncertainty ! and fear. He warned the senate ' that every day of delay costs the j treasury $2,000,000 In uncollected ; higher taxes. Smoot advocated a general sales tax as the fairest and most efficient form of taxation, but conceded reluctantly that the attitude of the house made enactment of such a tax "highly Improbable." Veteran of Senate The veteran chairman and senior member of the senate—he was ! sworn in this chamber March 4. 1903—spoke from his aisle seat He read from manuscript, in a voice which often failed to carry to the listening galleries. From that conspicuous position in the very center of the chamber, a-here In the past he proudly told of vast treasury surpluses or prospective tax reductions, the chairman spoke today of deficits and | ‘ credt facilities that refuse or fall : to function.” Conceding somewhat to the storm of anti-tariff criticism which beats around the bill. Smoot said that with the exception of consideration of tariff items, the work had been nonpartisan. Cite* Immediate Need The duty of congress, he insisted. is to provide immediately adequate federal revenue and safe- ' guard public credit. Federal expenditures for the fiscal year of 1933, are estimate to be $4,113,000,000. The deficit already Is more than $2,?)00.0f0.000. Smoot called for united administrative ajtd congressional action to ' obtain economy.
