Feb. 28.—A firmer tnne developed on the Stock Exchange at the opening today after a sharp decline in the late trading Monday. Trading was light as compared with Monday's dealings. Quiet prevailed on all banking fronts although the number of banks operating with restricted withdrawals increased over night as several states enacted legislation to provide for that expedient. The trading community learned the federal reserve again was buying United States government securities and thus throwing its resources into the market to expand credit and take up the slack caused by the recent heavy withdrawals because of bank closings; lass of gold, and hoarding. The so-called bond pool also was said to be operating again in high-grade securities. Bonds presented a steadier tone, and that helped the stock market.

By Scripps-lloieard Newspaper Alliance WASHINGTON, Feb. 28.—The Wagner relief bill will die this week in the Democratic banking and currency committee of the house unless President-Elect Franklin D. Roosevelt demands its passage, according to present indications. Members of the committee said today they had received no word from Roosevelt and did not intend to act, otherwise. Only three and a half more days remain. The bill, provides an additional $300,000,000 for loans by the R. F. C. to states for hunger relief. Many members of both houses of congress, who favor relief are accepting defeat of the Wagner bill in expectation that Mr. Roosevelt will support a relief bill making direct grants to the states, along lines proposed by Senators Robert La Follette (Rep., Wis.) and Edward P. Cpstigan (Dem., Colo.). Meanwhile, mass meetings demanding relief have been arranged for March 4 in a dozen or more large cities by the Federation of Unemployed Workers’ Leagues of America.

BOMBINGS BREAK QUIET IN MINE WAR ZONE Sniper Fails in Attempt to Assassinate Union Lawyer. B>j United Press SPRINGFIELD, 111., Feb. 28. Two bombings and an assassination attempt broke the quiet which marked resumption of operations at the four large Peabody coal mines in this area today. Bombs were exploded at the homes of two mine employes in the district and a sniper fired on C. C. Dreman, Progressive Miners’ Union attorney. Dreman was hurt slightly, but none were injured in the bombings. A bullet crashed through the windshield of Dreman's automobile, narrowly missing him. He was cut by flying glass. One of the bombs damaged the house of John Monier, employe at the Woodside mine and the other wrecked a truck belonging to another miner. Three companies of state militia patrolled the mines area.

By United Press TYLER, Tex., Feb. 28.—Crockery bottoms form the queer sidewalk at the home of Mrs. A. B. Pitts, in the Starrville community near here. Necks of the crockery are turned down, leaving the smooth surface of the bottom for the walk. Who made the strange walk Mrs. Pitts does not know. It was there when she acquired the property.

Os course a railroad track is no longer, perceptibly, in hot weather than in cold, for the expansion of each rail merely fills up the open spaces which were left for that purpose at its ends. If the rails were placed snugly together, the first hot spell would see them warping up in curious fashion.

LIGHT BUYING HOLDS WHEAT, GRAINSjTEADY Strong Securities, Cables Factors in Early Deals. BY HAROLD E. RAIXVILLE United Press Staff Correspondent CHICAGO. Feb. 28. Wheat opened firm and cent higher on the Board of Trade today although other grains were easy. Firmness in stocks at Liverpool caused scattered buying while pressure was very light. Dryness in tlie southwest overnight was a fa-’tor. Liverpool opened lower, but rallied on short covering. Corn was unchanged to % cent lower on scattered selling and little support. September setting anew low. Oats was % cent lower to cent higher. May being at anew low. Provisions were steadier. The uneasiness created by the financial situation continues to be the dominating influence in wheat. Private repirts on the winter wheat crop and farm reserves are (tie Wednesday and are expected to be bullish. Liverpool was steadier than expected and unchanged to % cent lower at mid-afternoon. Liquidation of a long line of com was responsible for the break at nrw lows Monday, but support came from a leading local professional. The bulk has been coming from Illinois points lately. Mild weather in the southwest is aiding spring planting of oats. Lack of a good cash demand is a factor in the low levels. Chicago Futures Range , -Feb. 28WHEAT— prev. .. High. Low. 10 00 close.
