WHEAT PRICES WEAKEN UNDER LIGHT SELLING Corn Steady to Higher in Sluggish Trade: Other Grains Dull. BY HAROLD K. RAINVILLE I nitrd P rr%% fctafT ( nrre*pond*nt CHICAGO, March 29—Wheat reacted from Tuesday’s sharp closing advance as the Board of Trade opened today, being unchanged to ** cent lower. Again Liverpool failed to follow the upturn here or in Winnipeg and scattered selling resulted. Stocks were somewhat higher which brought in moderate support. Trading was dull early, however. Corn held steady, unchanged to % rent higher Oats was unevenly I j, cent lower to % cent higher. Rye was unchanged to % cent lower. Provisions were steady. I/)cal operators and investors were accumulating wheat Tuesday on the winter wheat situation and the political outlook. Liverpool continues to make only mild responses to advances in North America and at mid-afternoon was % to \ cent higher. Advancing corn prices brought heavier offerings which has had a tendency to flatten out the market for the past two days. Bookings late Tuesday were above 100,000 bushels, the largest in several weeks. The cash demand continues active. Oats rallied with the other grains.

Replacement Demands Will Accelerate Industry, Sloan Forecasts. Bp Times Sprrinl NEW YORK. March 29 —Recovery in thp automobile industry, as soon as the period of readjustment is completed and business revival gets definitely under way. will be greatly accelerated because of the depreciation and obsolescence of existing motor equipment resulting from the long period of depression. Alfrrd P. Sloan Jr., president, of General Motors Corporation, said in his annual report sent to stockholders today. Net earnings from operations in 1932 were shown to be $164,979. after full depreciation charges. The report also pointed out that the company has increased its proportion of the world’s passenger automobile business from 32.8 per cent in 1929 to 41 5 per cent in 1932. It also Avas emphasized that the company has operated without a loss in any year. Compared with the peak year of 1929. the report cited, production of 1932 showed a drop of 78 per cent figured in dollars and 75 per cent in unit sales. The rate of production was the lowest in any year since 1918. when only 6.147.000 cps were in use in the United States, as compared with 24,100.000 operated in 1932. The extent of depreciation and obsolescence affecting existing equipment was indicated in the report by pointing out that, despite the marked reduction in production and sales, the shrinkage in registration and gasoline consumption from the most recent peak; has been of slight proportions. Summarizing the three depression years 1930-1932, the report states that dividend disbursements exceeded earnings by $94,973,201. Total distribution in the three years amounted to $28,120,946 on preferred stock and $314,993,333 on common stock. Earnings available for dividends in the three years amounted to $248,141,078. The report recites that throughout the period of depression the company has maintained a strong financial position, has continued dividend disbursements, has reduced production costs and expense, has been aggressive in improving the technical position and artistic conception of its products through research and engineering, and has maintained and strengthened its personnel.
