THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE, TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 23, 1932 ‘I. Tribune's Grain, Livestock and 4 ¢ 4) __Market Report for Tues., Feb. 23 | New York Stocks || WHEAT PRICES FALL STOCK MART BEGINS HESITANTLY BUT HAS SBLLING RESISTANCE! Break of More Than 15 Points| 4, in Auburn Only Moder- ately Unsettling New York, Feb. 23.—(#)—The stock market began the new week hesitant-j ly Tuesday, but showed considerable resistance to further selling pressure. A break of more than 15 points in Auburn in early trading was only moderately unsettling to the list as a whole. Several issues sagged a point or two, but recovered partially as the session wore on. Trading was slug- gish. Auburn dropped to 93, then recov- ered a few points. Union Pacific sold off 2 points in the early trading, and showed little recuperative power. American Telephone, after selling off 1%, regained about half its loss. Al- lied Chemical, after losing nearly 2 points, more than regained its loss. U. S. Steel sagged a point, recovered to show a fractional gain, and again eased. A few recent bull favorites were again bid up a point cluding the New York Tractions, American Woolen preferred, and Mc- Keesport Tinplate. ‘The wide movement in Auburf was accompanied by varied rumors in brokerage quarters, but Wall Strect as @ whole paid little attention to this | normally volatile issue. It came with- in 1% points of the years’ low. New automobile registrations for the first 21 states to report for January show that Auburn registered 227 against 636 in the same states in January last year. | Livestock | pA ——— ° SOUTH ST.

A disappointing close at Liverpool after the wheat market there had| shown independent strength was an incentive to holders here to let go.

This was generally taken as acknowledgement that Euro- 1 | pean home grown supplies were al- most exhausted, and as indicating that France and Germany would fol- lsw the example set by Italy. Trade advices were also current that world import requirements of wheat would be at least 100,000,000 bushels more than was recently estimated. Corn and oats were relatively weak, in- fluenced by sales of corn against pur- chases of wheat. Provisions duplicated steadiness of hog values. WHEAT SHOWS STRENGTH BUT SUFFERS SETBACK Minneapolis, Feb. 23.—()—Wheat showed strength at the outset here Tuesday on bullish foreign erop news, strong cables and fairly good export business, but the initial advance was dipped below the Previous close because of heavy pri- mary receipts and mild decrease in visible supplies. ‘Weakness in the stock market was slightly discouraging.

Spokesmen for the group felt this Proposed revision of the dry laws would garner more votes than an effort to slash the $11,369,500 enforce- ment fund, though Representative Schafer (R., Wis.), said he would at- tempt this also. Last year the same restriction on wire tapping was pro- {posed by Representative Tinkham (R., Mass.), but was lost 99 to 78. Attorney General Mitchel told the appropriations committee wire tap- ping is employed only on advance au- thority from both bureau chief and the assistant attorney general super- vising the bureau. “It has been used in a very limited number of cases,” Mitchell said. “The modern criminal is so well equipped with modern inventions of every kind at his disposal that if you are going to be too nice about your methods you a hamper yourself very consider- ably.” Lines Not Changed After 12 Hours of Daylight Battling (Continued from page One) on the outskirts of Miaochungchen, northwest of Kiangwan, attempting to sever the Japanese communication | lines.

Aged Cleric Speaks One of the men who attended the meeting at which it was decided to issue the declaration signed by the 51, tells with some enjoyment of a speech which Father Geraghty made at that time.

All I have in the world is located here but I would rather see everything that I have built up completely lost than to have my city stigmatize itself by go- ing ahead with this capital removal .
