$ 00KS STEADY AFTER WAVE OF HEAVY SELLING
German Situation, American Sales’ Drop at London Affect Traders.
NEW YORK, Nov. 18 (U. P)—.|
The stock market steadied today after undergoing heavy
list down 1 to 3 points net. While volume lightened and prices leveled off at the lows, there was no tendency to make new purchases.
Traders watched the German situ-|A%
ation and were especially perturbed over sales of American stocks in the London Street Market after the |4 London Stock Exchange closed. Steel common was at 66s, Bethle~ hem 2%, Chrisyler 81, American Smelting = 53% and Westinghouse Electric 1153, each off 2. U. S. Rubber lost 2% to 497%. Declines of a point or more were made by Anaconda, International Harvester, Sears Roebuck and Western Union. Early trading on the listed bond “market was a dull and routine affair with. prices ‘around previous closing levels. Rails attracted moderate selling at the outset and edged off fractionally, but this pressure subsided and at the end of the first hour the trend -was irregularly higher. Alleghany Corp., Santa Fe and Mis-souri-Pacific issues were somewhat easier, but the bulk of the group held steady to firm.
Utilities and: industrials improved oo
irregularly, with gains limited for the most part to small fractions. U. S. Government obligations eased irregularly in a light trade: Aggressive strength in aviation
shares featured an irregular ad- é
vanse in curb stock prices. Numerous aircraft shares whipped up to new 1938 highs following a declaration by Louis Johnson, Assistant Secretary of War, that the United States should increase its air force four times fo meet the “tremendous pace” of the rest of the world. Waco, Seversky, Grumann, Brewster, Bellanca and Beech Aircraft|y issues all made new highs on gains ranging to a point. American and Bell also shared the forward movement with fractional gains. Utilities were off fractionally. Oils and mining shares were irregular. # 2. 8

Another late TUN of Toss was absorbed at generally steady prices on the local market today, according to the Bureau of Agricultural Economics. The top on 160-170-pound butchers remained at $7.90. Packing sows sold mostly unchanged irom $7.15 to $7.50. ° Vealers ruled strong considering the drop in killing quality. In the absence of strictly choice grades, top was $11. “A scant supply of slaugh= ter cows and heifers and odd lots of low-cost steers were readily -disposed of. Plain medium and low good grade heifers ranged from $6.50 to $8.50. Fat lamb prices’ ruled strong at a practical top of $9.25. A few choice offerings sold for $9.50. The supply consisted of native animals.

TO INTEGRATE INVESTMENTS
United ‘Corp.'s Decision ‘to Diversify Utility Stocks Hailed by SEC.
WILMINGTON, Del., Nov. 18 (U. P.) ~The $239,000,000 United Corp. has disclosed that it had filed with the Securities & Exchange Commission a definite plan of integration designed to diversify the corporation’s holdings and scale down present stock ownership in any single utility company to 10 per cent or less. The plan also revealed that while the corporation would continue as an investment company, it “has determined, as opportunity permits, to ‘diversify its portfolio and participate in the financing and undertaking of new capital issues in the public -utility and other fields.” “The public utility industry, as well, in ‘common with all industry, has need éach: year for large o | amounts of new capital,” George H. | Howard, president of United, point‘led out in a letter to William O. SEC chairman. “Sound capitalization would seem to require that at least half of this new capital be raised through the issuance of equity securities. In our opinion, the United Corp. can aid in this needed equity financing and be in a position also to assist in some of the financing required in connection with the various steps of integration throughout the 'country.” Mr. Douglas, in Washington, is-
|sued a statement calling the United
o|plan a “constructive business ap- %! proach to what is fundamentally not only a legal but a business problem” anc said the Commission “heartily welcomed” the company’s offer of co-operation in working out the objectives of the integration clause of the Public Utility, 3 | Holding Company Act of 1935.
REDUCE DIVIDENDS, FDIC HEAD URGES
Savings Associations’ Only Solution, Says Crowley.
‘CHICAGO, Nov. 18 (U. P.).—Reduction of dividends and expenses “seems to be the only solution” to the earning problems of savings associations, according to Leo T. Crowley, chairman of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. Cheaper money has created problems for all classes of financial institutions, but one-purpose institutions like building and loan associations cannot ‘experiment with new types of assets, Mr. Crowley said. “With 5 per cent money the rule today, dividends much in excess of 3 per cent are hazardous, ” Mr. Crowley: declared.” : To meet increasing Snansial problems; “the FDIC chairman em-
@|phasized that building and loan
associations must continue to improve the - quality of their man0. | agement. : A ‘prime “yesponsibility of bank directors: ‘and
said, pointing out that past diffi~ culties of savings and loan associations. as well as of commercial banks arose from failure to syn-
%0-|chronize the functions of thrift
and investment. Co-operation ‘among all Federal agencies supervising financial institutions is essential, Mr. Crowley said, emphasizing that commercial banks, savings institutions, credit unions and similar groups are interdependent parts of the nation’s financial structure.

If the. supply-and-demand odds were as long on the Indiana-Purdue football tickets as rumor has it, there should be several thousand disappointed ducat seekers clustered about the loud speakers tomorrow.
So, for their benefit, be it known that WIRE and WFBM will be carrying accounts of the contest at 1115 p. m. Tomorrow's game will conclude WIRE's grid broadcasts for the season.
Fans may keep-track of Indiana's other big time aggregation on WLW or WGN, both of which will give you a block-and-tackle description of the’ e Dame-Northwestern encounter at 1:30 p. m,

If France and South America were to hear the Notre Danese game at the moment the teains “ere meeting, it would be such a commonplace as to merit scarcely a passing mention. So broadcasting has to slow up to horse and buggy tempo. to make redl ‘news. . Which is winding up to say that 50 million Frenchmen and as many more Latin Americans will hear a broadcast of the game, not tomorrow, but ks or months from now. It seems that Henri. Diamant Berger, movie producer and official French radio representative, is in this country recording broadcasts for sake of “local color.” M. Berger was to arrive in Chicago today for recordings at the Union Stock Yards, the Field Museum of Natural History, the wheat pit and other points of interest before waxing tomorrow’s football for posterity. » 2 ‘®

fortunes during his lifetime, ° Lal will return to conduct the New York
dren’s concerts, beginning tomorrow, Mr. Schelling was afflicted all last season with a serious eye ailment, and relinquished the baton for these Saturday morning concerts to John Barbirolli and Rudolph Ganz. Tomorrow he will begin his 15th ‘of the 16 seasons of children’s cone certs, and the ninth year of broadcasting. For music, he has selected a very grown-up program for his young listeners. It will be all-Wagner, ine cluding excerpts from “The Flying Dutchman,” “Lohengrin,” “Tannhaeuser,” “Die. | Meistersinger,” “Goetterdaemmerung,” “Tristan and Isolde” and “Die Walkuere.” CBS (though not WFBM) will earny the broadcast, beginning at 10 a. m. . J » » Observing the 110th anniversary of Franz chubert’s death, an. orchestra, singer and pianist will be heard in a commemorative program from Berlin at 11 a. m., received by short wave and rebroadcast through NBC-WMAQ. #8 » =» With Luise Rainer and William: Powell in the leading roles, “Holly= wood Hotel” will bring you scenes” from "“Tovarich” tonight at 8 o'clock on CBS-WFBM. Charles Bufterworth will play Dupont; the banker, with Joseph Calleia doing: the Commisar. It seems safe to: predict that the popular Jacques | Deval will be in good hands. X Incidentally this will be the last but two of the popular longtime se= ries. On Dec. 9 “Hollywood Hotel” will go off the air in favor of —guess: who!—none other than - Orson Welles, the interplanetary bogey. man. i r
