4 Tribune’s Grain, Lives _ Market Report for Fri., Feb. 1 STOCK MART LOSES - MOST OF BIG GAINS MADE EARLY INDAY Bears Frightened For Time By New Ruling Against Short Sellers New York, Feb. 19.—(?)—Iniermit- tent profit-taking during the re- mainder of the session chipped away most of a sharp opening bulge in the stock market Friday. The list closed irregularly higher, with some issues up about 1 to 3 points, but there were moderate losses here and there. The market was irregular at the close. BERBREE! BEBE BEREP goeet 5 5 The turnover approximated 2,300,000 | Barnsda! shares. The market shot up feverishly at Eat 5 the start, as bears took fright at the new stock exchange rule on loaning stock to short» sellers, but quickly lost about half the rise. The list then steadied, and worked upward for a time after midday, but weakened de- cidedly in the last half hour. After rising 7 points, Eastman & closed up little more than 2. Auburn, which was up 6 points in the early trading, turned decidedly weak, and closed with a net loss of nearly 4. American Can retained about half of a 4-point rise. Union Pacific and Santa Fe closed up only fractions, after extreme gains of 5 and 3, res- pectively. U. S. Steel finished a point higher, after an early rise of 3. American Telephone, after selling 3 5-8 higher, fell back to close with a net loss of nearly a point. Nearly one- third of the day's turnover occurred in the first half hour. Bears appeared thoroughly fright- ened for a time over the stock ex- change’s order that after April 1)Et brokers must obtain specific’ per- mission from customers before loan- ing their stocks to short sellers. After a few minutes of: feverish trading and swiftly rising prices,|FOx its [Freeport Early upturns of 1 toiGen. Elec. however, the market regained equilibrium. 7 points were cut in half by profit- taking by bulls, but the list again turned quietly upward for a time after midday, with trading proceed- ing at a normal pace. Brokers and traders were greatly confused as to what the ultimate effect of the new ruling would be, but since it does not take effect un- tii April 1, several of the more ex- perienced traders who were short of the market were said to pe taking their time about covering. Aside from the somewhat artifi- cial stimulus given the market by the new bear ruling, the list was helped by Washington reports that the Glass-Steagall bill might, be passed by the senate before the end of the day, news that the reconstruction finance ‘corporation already has ex- tended about $2,500,000 in loans so far this month, continued strength of U. S. governments in the bond market, and a strengthening of the dollar as against the French franc in the foreign exchange markets.

Premier Suyoshi Inukal called up- on Emperor Hirohito at the imperial palace after a conference of selected cabinet members this afternoon. The news of Chaing Kai Shek’s reported move, War Minister Araki was re- ported to have said, made the situa- jtion at Shanghai much more serious. Would Avoid War Members of the cabinet were re- ‘ported, however, to have agreed to do their best to prevent the situation from developing in such a way as to necessitate a declaration of war. Im- mediately after ,the cabinet confer- ences the premier left for the palace to see the emperor. The premier's visit, coming on the eve of the general election followed a meeting with Minister of War Araki arid Foreign Minister Yoshizawa. The three statesmen gathered after the regular morning session of the cab- inet. ‘ The war office general staff has been watching closely the develop- ments in Shanghai. The deviopments indicated it was prepared to reinforce General Uyeda’s command if the character of the Chinese resistance makes its necesesary. If the present Shanghai Japanese force should be double or trebled the war office was expected to name a special commander-in-chief with the full rank of general. General Uyeda is a lieutenant general. Last Monday Araki said further re- inforcements might be necessary and the belief prevailed today steps al- ready have been taken to cope with whatever situation arises. Pass Over Election Although it was election eve, the public and officials alike gave little attention to anything but Shanghai. ,The foreign office said official dis- patches from Geneva “rectified” its previous advices that the first draft of the league council's note emanated from American sources.

AMERICAN CITIZENS EVACUATE HONGKEW Shanghai, Feb. 20—(Saturday)—() —American citizens who live in the Hongkew area, at present one of the most dangerous in Shanghai, came across the boundaries into the inter- national settlement in considerable numbers early today, convoyed by po- lice and firemen. The U. 8. consul had advised them to get out of Hongkew, for it seemed unlikely anything could avert heavy fighting before many more hours. More than 100 Chinese patients in ‘St. Luke’s hospital were carried out in ambulances, and when all the ambulances were in use the fire de- partment turned over some of its ap- paratus for the transportation of re- fugees. Fifty-five nurses and all internes and: other members of the hospital staff also were taken out.

CHINESE GUNS BOOM AS PRELUDE TO FIGHT (Copyright, 1932, by the Associated Press) Shanghai, Feb. 19.—(AP) — Chi- nese guns boomed a heavy tatoo to- day as a prelude to battle. Three Japanese bluejackets were killed. Under cover of the bombard- ment Chinese made hasty but elabo- rate preparations for the expected attack tomorrow when the Japanese ultimatum expires. The bombardment was interpreted by Japanese officers as a gesture of defiance. They said the Chinese guns hurled shells over the Japanese consulate and the flagship Idzumo in the river during the night. Artil- lery fire also was exchanged at Kiangwan. The only effect the Japanese ulti- matum seemed to have had upon the Chinese soldiers was to speed up the work of strengthening defenses which reach for miles behind the Chinese lines. 5 Troops were in the line all the way from Chapei to Woosung. Ma- chine guns were being placed in po- sition at frequent intervals. Four hundred American infantry- men, members of the 31st infantry from Manila, took over the defense lines along a mile frontage in the international settlement during the afternoon. The American position faced the Chinese stand in Chapei and was the most advanced post on the settlement front. The Ameri- cans also rubbed elbows with the Japanese forces on their right along Machine guns were being placed ia pits at intervals of about 50 yards around the new Japanese airdrome. Numerous sand bag redoubts also were built at the corners of the field and along the banks of the Whang- poo river. As darkness came on and less than 12 hours remained before the Jap- lanese were expected to begin their onslaught a feeling akin to despair grip the city’s business leaders, both Chinese and foreign. In these quarters it was revealed frantic ef- forts were made by the business leaders today, in direct conferences with Chinese itary officials, to persuade the Chinese to withdraw, but that the conferences failed.
