The list was unable to make con- sistent recovery. An early upturn of 1 to 3 points was more than lost as the session wore on but trading dwindled sharply and the list de- veloped a fairly firm undertone in the early afternoon. The early upturn, ranging from 1 to 3 points in such issues as Ameri-; can Telephone, Consolidated Gas, Allied -Chemical, National Biscuit, Sears Roebuck, Santa Fe, American Can and Eastman. was short lived. ‘The list was momentarily unsettled by uncovering of a few soft spots. Peoples Gas dropped 10 points. Stan- dard of N. J. was offered in consider- able volume, losing more than a Point. Most of the leaders, however, failed to go more than fractionally under Tuesday's close. The improved tone evidently ‘was; in response to reports that the gov- emors of the federal reserve banks meeting in Washington Tuesday had agreed upon a program of more ag- gressive credit expansion. A few issues finished with losses of 1 to more than 3 points, but most of the leaders were off only frac- tions. The closing tone was heavy.! Transfers approximated 1,100,000: shares. ——_—__—_._— ° | Livestock \ e SOUTH ST. PAUL LIVESTOCK South St. Paul, April 13—(P)—(U. 5. D.

This disclosure came Wednesday *labout the time that George L. Har- n, governor of the New York federal reserve bank, was telling the house banking committee the fed- eral reserve board had agreed to stimulate the purchase of govern- nient. securities. This step of the federal reserve was described by those familiar with its workings as inspired by a feeling | \¥ that there had been failure on the part of bankers to assist the gov- ernment in its reconstruction pro- gram. These officials believe that strong banks, not seriously affegted, in- stead of calling loans to ‘maintain a liquid condition, should start a wave of new credit. One official, who declined use of his name, put the attitude of such banks in these words: “Like a dog sticking his tail be- great noise made over a year ago.” Six-Point Program Washington, April 13.—(?)—A six- point economic relief program, incluc ing abandonment of “prohibitive” tariffs and sharp reduction in the cost of government was advanced Wednes- day by Senator Robinson of Arkan- sas, at the Jefferson day luncheon rally of the nation's leading Demo- icrats. Joining Representative Rainey of Illinois, the house majority leader; | Representative Mary T. Norton of New Jersey, and Mrs. Nellie Tayloc Ross, ‘vice chairman of the party's na- tional committee, in a severe arraign- ment of Republican promises and policies, the senate’s Democratic chieftain also called for: Rigid enforcement of the anti-trust 55 | taws, use of American capital at home, a policy of non-cancellation of for- eign debts and no readjustment of debts except in the interest of Amer- ica, and reestablishment of higher commodities prices through orderly disposition of existing surpluses, re- adjustments in domestic production and other processes. -——*|Manufacturers Ask For Legalized Beer Washington, April 13—()—Beer as @ source of revenue was thrust back into the tax dispute Wednesday be- fore the senate finance committee. James A. Emery, counsel for the National Association of Manufactur- ers, called for amendment of the Vol- stead act and the regulated manufac- ture of a cereal beverage which he said would produce $270,000,000 annu- ally of revenue. “We are concerned neither with the pros or cons of prohibition,” he said. “The only issue is whether we shall have beer, with or without revenue. “We urge the permissible manufac- ture of a palatable non-intoxicant, produce revenue in a national emer- gency.” Pingree Poolhall Proprietor Killed Jamestown, ND, D., April Be Dan McDermott, 50, pool hall pro- prietor at Pingree, was killed Tues- day night when his automobile plunged through a rail of a bridge across the Pipestem river three miles west of Pingree.
