WAI.ZER United Press Financial Editor NEW YORK, June 10.—A sensational nap in Auburn Automobile stock at the expense of a large short Interest today gave Wall Street a thrill not experienced in many months. The Influence of the advance in Auburn which carried it up to a level more than 100 per cent above its low of the year had a favorable effect on the entire list. Around noon the general market was up fractions to 2 points and a more confident attitude was being displayed by the trading element. Auburn, which on May 5 sold at anew low at 2R*t, today was carried to 60 1 4, up 15% points from the! previous close which in turn represented a gain of 8% points for the; session. Auburn I* Sensation Auburn has been the market sensation this year. Back on Jan. 14 it reached a high for the year at 151** when sales were booming for the company's cars. Then came a slump in the automobile business and a. sharp drop in Auburn stock. A few days ago the company slashed pricea, increased its number of employes and declared the regular dividend. These factors apparently were responsible for the frenzied short covering of the past few days. Leading industrial shares were strong around noon, while consistent gains were recorded in utilities and rails. International Shoe rose mora than a point to 37'* in its division on reports of improvement in the shoe industry. Wheat Futures Spurt i Coca Cola rose to 9114, up 2>i; Al3ied Chemical 49 '4, up I'/*; United States Steel 25 %, up 1; International Business Machines 68, up 214; American Telephone 82%, up I**; Peoples Gas 51 Vi, up 2V4; Public Service 32%, up 1%; North American 17Vi, up 1; Atchison up IV4, and Union Pacific 36%, up 1%. Wheat spurted 114 to IV4 cents a bushel, being influenced by a bullish crop estimate as of June 3, issued Thursday afternoon by the department of agriculture. Both the winter and spring wheat crops were found sharply under recent estimates, a factor making for higher prices for the cereal. Cotton held steady. Domestic corporation and railroad bonds turned irregularly lower but United States government issues were firm.

WEEKLY TRADE REPORT SOUNDS CHEERFUL NOTE Employment, Retail Sales Show Gains During Past Week. By United Press NEW YORK. June 10.-Brad-street’s weekly review of American business, released today, struck a definitely optimistic note. Evidence of returning confidence among business men and purchasers has been fairly pronounced, the report said, in the fifty-five key cities of the United States. Employment conditions are improving in certain sections while retail business, stimulated by favorable summer weather and intensive advertising on the part of merchants, generally is hopeful. Confidence Is Returning “In addition,” the report said, “there has been evidence of returning confidence on the part of business men and the purchasing public brought about largely, according to observers, by the knowledge that the legislators have made a definite beginning in balancing the budget. The rise in retail prices generally is regarded as a hopeful augury for the future. Stocks are at a minimum and must be replaced.’’ Seasonal developments in the Great Lake region are devloping slowly but in healthy fashion while reports from the mid-continent oil fields show promise greater than in recent previous years, the report continued. Automatic refrigeration orders appear to be greater than a year ago and in certain cities of the northwest employment conditions are improving. Auto Emloyment Up Flour mills in the northwest are operating at 55 per cent but are expected to expand materially within -4,he coming week In the face of generally bad steel production Bradstreet's points out that the reports on structural steel are better than at any time since last October. Contracts for some forty-three thousand tons are out. Employment conditions are showing some improvement in the automobile industry. Generally speaking. the report points out, the automobile industry except for the Ford plants, is not up to expectations. UPHOLD GOLD STANDARD League Advisory Group Also Urges Trade Bars Removal.

WHEAT SOARS ON RECEIPT OF BULLISH NEWS Crop Forecast for Year Is Little Over Half That of 1931. BY HAROLD E. RAINVILLE United Press Staff Correspondent CHICAGO, June 10.—Wheat shot sharply higher as the Board of Trade opened today on the startling government winter wheat estimate of 411.000,000 bushels, lowest with two exceptions since 1907. Bwlldered by the totally unexpected showing, wheat operators were caught in an awkward position and short-s covered freely. Liverpool was much stronger than expected, but fluctuated as the Canadian report was bearish and tended to check the upturn. Trading was very active, but bullish sentiment was tempered by the fart that the report was so far out of line with private reports. Liverpool Moves Up Corn was firm with wheat. Oats was dull and about steady. Rye was higher with wheat. At the opening wheat was \ cent to IS cents higher, corn was % cent to % cent higher, oats was unchanged to % cent higher and. rye was % cent to % rent higher. Provisions were active and firm. Liverpool also was greatly surprised by the United States government report and jumped sharply higher, reacting later but holding a % to 1 cent gain at mid-afternoon. The report issued Thursday suggested a crop of 22,000.000 bushels under that of the private experts on June l, and 376.000,000 bushels under the bumper harvest last year. Tredlct Corn Sales The Canadian crop report also released Thursday, indicated that spring wheat had a good start with conditions 96 per cent of normal. No estimate on production was made, but local experts figure that with continued favorable conditions this would produce 415,000.000 bushels. The trade believes there is some prospect of export sales of American corn, owing to its low price. Owing to the low price of oats, there probably will be a large acreage not harvested.
