By ELMER C. WALZER United Pres, Financial Editor NEW YORK. Aug. 17.—Trading was fairly active in an irregularly lower opening on the New York Stock Exchange today. Cotton firmed up a few points; bonds moved irregularly in dull turnover: and the dollar advanced, with the pound sterling off 11-l 1 - cents at $4.38%. Dealings fell off after the initial orders were executed aJid prices , drifted aimlessly with tickers idle at intervals. Most initial losses were held within a one-point area, although in a few instances such as Allied Chemical, which dipped nearly 2 points to 125. they were larger. Here and there a stock advanced .against the trend. In the latter division were Texas Corporation. Case. National Distillers, and Alaska Juneau, all up fractionally.

WASHINGTON. Aug. 17.—A renewed effort is being made here to get the government to finance the sale of 1.000.000 bales of cotton to Russia as a means of bolstering the falling cotton market. The steady drop in prices is causing apprehension among officials of the agricultural adjustment administration. which is in the midst of its $120,000,000 cotton acreage reduction campaign throughout the south. . E. McDonald. Texas agricultural commissioner, wired Senator Tom Connally iDem., Tex.), that the morale of Texas farmers and business men was at an extraordinarly low ebb. He went so far as to suggest that the war department purchase 2.000.000 bales of cotton to be held by it for war purposes only. The Russian deal is the special endeavor of ex-Senator Smith W. Brookhart *Rep.. la.), now special adviser to the agriculture adjustment commission. He said that the proposal to sell 1,000.000 bales on six-year terms had not been agreeable and that five-year financing had been suggested. The deal would be handled through the Reconstruction Finance Corporation, which already has financed the sale of 70.000 bales of cotton to Russia on terms of one year. Brookhart has been in conference with officials of Amtorg, the Soviet's international trade and finance agency, and he expressed the belief that if the five-year financing plan were arranged, Amtorg would take the cotton.

WHEAT PLUMBS LDW LIMITS IN INITIAL TRADES Corn Shows Resistance in Drop of 1 3-8 to 2 7-8 Cents. BY HAROLD E. RAINYILLE l tilled Press Slxff Correspondent CHICAGO. Aur. 17. Wheat plumb-d the a- pths of the daily iimil on fluctuations as the Board of Trade opened today, fallinß the full 5 cents. Com. however, showed decided resistance and opened l‘ to 2% cents lower, with some liquidation in September, but strong support appearing on the way down. The other grams followed wheat and com irregularly. Oats was 2% to 3 cents lower, down the limit on September. Rye was 4 to 4% cents lower. Good Trade Early Provisions were off 30 to 50 points, only a few months hitting the inside limits. There was a good trade at the start. Firmness at Liverpool was a factor, that market being around 'z cent higher, despite the break her” Wednesday Stocks were weak. Grains again were surrounded by rumors, as well as confused sentiment. at the start today. Rumors of inflation moves were spiked by a statement from Washington that they were not # b”ing considered at present. Another, to the effect that a pool was being formed in the east to support grains, was not given much credence. Neither, lt is reported. is the government considering stabilizing grain prices. Bulls Are Optimistic Some leading brokers are of the opinion that grains will be led from the present situation by coarse grains, particularly corn. It is generally agreed littie hope of a sustained rise is in prospect for the present. An end to liquidation is anticipated today with the hope that the bullish fundamentals in all grains would b? permitted to take effect in readjusting values to their proper relationships.
