The ability of the market to break out of its recent extremely narrow, trading area on the upside, without |B apparent application .of artificial; stimulation, was regarded in broker- age quarters as highly encouraging. While specific developments to ac-)B; count for the upturn was lacking, news of the British repayment of $150,000,0000f its private credit, and a slightly better tone in the midweek business statistics, were | undoubtedly factors contributing to- ward the improved sentiment in Wall Street. American Telephone was a leader, surging up more than 6, while Au- burn, normally a wide mover, gained | CO more than 7. The list opened with a firm tone, and crept almost stead- ily higher throughout the day, al- though the advance did not become vigorous until the afternoon trading. | Gon! The market moved forwani along a broad front, although the motors, as a whole, held back. Advances of 3 to 4 points appeared. in American Can, U. 8. Steel, Allied Chemical,! Union Pacific, Santa Fe, and East- man, while gains of 2 or more ap- peared in Consolidated Gas, DuPont, Canadian Pacific, New York Central, | Fr Case and Gillette. | Livestock } ‘ al SOUTH ST.

Assertions that rye might act as the bell wether of the wheat mar- ket received considerable attention, because rye at times advanced faster than the principal bread grains. Ab- sence of selling prices in the wheat pit was another noticeable strength- ening factor. Predictions. were current that do- mestic wheat acreage this season would not as large as last year. However, it was conceded much de- Pended, on prices of wheat at the time of seeding and also that the amount of seeding would be affected 3% |by future soil and weather condi- tions. rere for corn movement gave firmness to feed grains.

Servants Are Silent Neither Col. Lindbergh nor his servants would talk. The search of the ground of the estate yielded a scant handful of clues to the kidnapers, who had worked jwith such quiet and stealthy dis- patch that the five ‘adults in the jhouse were never aware of what was happening in the nursery upstairs. A cordon of police was thrown about the Lindbergh estate carly Wednesday, to keep out the hun- dreds of private cars which sped there after hearing of the kidnaping. Roads for miles around were snarled {in a hopeless traffic jam. Police have discovered no finger- prints in the nursery. The ledge of the nursery window by which the kidnaper entered was covered with dirt, evidently from the man’s feet. Both the “nursery windows were unlocked. The shutters of the win- dows usually are locked but Tuesday night both Mrs. Lindbergh and the nurse had failed to lock one of them. Steely Calm Does Not Desert Eagle 1 Hopewell, N. J., Mar. 2.— (AP)—The steely calm that Col. Charles A. Lindbergh displayed in his rocket rise to fame did not desert him in the most harrow- ing experience of his career. Tight-lipped as ever on sub- jects touching his private life, his rumpled hair and grim face were the only indications of his feelings as he tramped about his estate, flashlight in hand, in- specting the footprints of the es- caped kidnapers of his son, and searching the muddy mountain for other clues. When a reporter asked him for a statement, he turned to Major Schefer of the state police, who had ordered all available troop- { ers in the district to report to the || Lindbergh home. “I prefer that you answer all questions,” the world’s most fa- mous airman said. “You know all about it.” | ‘The catch would not work. The balky shutter was on the window which the man used to reach the baby’s crib, Helped By Troopers Col. Lindbergh remained indoors from 5:30 to 6:30 a. m.

The Japanese claimed the Chinese soldiers, unable to stand any longer the terrible force of their artillery, aerial and naval attacks, broke their lines and beat the retreat, which, they said, was rapidly turning into a rout. Chinese military officials, however, said it was a “tactical retreat,” and | that they planned to establish new defense lines at Nanziang, 10 miles west and renew the battle there. They were falling back, they said, to protect their communications, en- dangered by the landing of a large force of Japanese troops at Liuho, 20 miles up the Yangtze river. These troops immediately began a drive southward. | Jans Follow Advantage The Japanese, freshened by the ad- dition of thousands of reinforcements during the last two or three days, followed up their advantage closely. From Liuho, on the south bank of the Yangtze, the Japanese line form- ed a giant arc bulging westward and ending in the vicinity of Chapei, ad- Jacent the Shanghai international/ settlement. Chapei, which has been reduced to ties began, was deserted by the Chi- nese by 6 o'clock tonight. A number of huge fires roared in the battered city demolishing what was left. The| Chinese rear guard kept up a running! fire with the Japanese as the army! withdrew. Following the departure of the Chi- nese, the hostilities which have threatened the very existence of Shanghai for five weeks died down considerably. Some observers pre-| dicted the retreat would bring an end to the fighting but the Chinese in- sisted the battle would be renewed. Evacuating Nantao i The Chinese also began evacuating | Nantao, at the southern extremity of Shanghai. As their westward retreat began from there, thousands of them tried to enter the French concession, immediately adjoining Nantao, and the French were forced to increase their already heavy border guards and armed patrols. The withdrawal from Chapei resulted in a terrific crush of Chinese soldiers along the borders of the international settle- ment, and the settlement defense forces .destroyed several bridges over Soochow creek to stop the press of Chinese. The Japanese said the Chinese lost 1,800 men killed, while their losses were only 60. A pele spearhead thrust re- ininimum charge 75 cents.

Democratic Ranks In N. D. Rocked by New Development (Continued from page One? Norris case in Nebraska. I was aj member of the state Democratic con- vention in Valley City. I had not in- tended to take any very active part in| the Democratic contest for national committeeman other than to support | the convention choice, H. H. Perry of Ellendale. “As @ result of this cheap attempt | to hoodwink the voters, I will now make an active campaign to see that every Democratic voter of Kidder county casts his vote for H. H. Perry of Ellendale as national committee- man.” | Leo McDonald, Mandan, nominated | by the Valley City convention as. a! delegate to the national convention: | “Morton county Democrats are square-shooters and naturally detest anything that looks like an attempt to fool the voters. I will make it a point to see that every Democrat in Morton county is informed regarding | this two-for-a-nickel stuff. It will mean a larger majority for H. H.) Perry of Ellendale. I am surprised; that ‘state officials, especially one from the attorney general's depart- ment, which is supposed to, observe rules of ordinary justice, would be/ parties in this move to deceive voters.” | What Simon Says | Simon had little to say other than to explain that he acted merely as a messenger boy for a friend in Minot who asked him to meet the bus from that city, get the papers and file them with the secretary of state. He re- fused to disclose the name of the/ friend for whom he acted. Explaining Gammons’ presence, he skid he just happened to call at the latter's office and that Gammons of- fered to accompany him to the sec- retary of state's office where the fil- ing was made about a minute before closing time Tuesday. ‘ ment, Simon said he believed. the filing of C. D. Perry was due to the fact that Murphy and his friends had attempted to prevent anyone else from filing for national committee- sulted in the occupation of Tachang.
