NEW YORK, May 5-—The rally which began in the latter part of yesterday's stock market continued at today’s opening, stocks im virtually all sections in the last opening % to % points higher Short covering operations furnished the impetus for the advance, which was most effec- tive in the equipments, steels, cop- pers, ofls, motors and a selected assortment of raflroad shares. Amer- can and Lima Locomotive, American Can and Reynolds Spring led the up- ward movement. Missouri Pacific common dropped % to a new low record for the year and Consolidated Gas slumped % point in response to the state legislature's passage of the “Dollar gas bill.” Bear traders covered extensively tn the first half hour, apparently fear- ing‘to be short of too much stock over the week end. Early gains were nereased as trading progressed with the sugar stocks assuming the leader- ship of the upward movement.

HAVANA, May 5—(By the Aqwect- ated Press.)\—A commission appointed by the Cuban Association of Sugar Planters and Cane Growers towreport on crop conditions has addressed man- ifesto to the people of the United States which follows in part. “During 1921-1922 the American peo- ple received*from Cuba 6,066,280 tons of raw sugar (or 51-10 per cent of thelr total consumption) at an aver- age price for both years pf 3.218 cents per pound, na@ inc’uding duty, that is, at a price which did not cover the cost of production. “Comparad with such low prices, consumers had been led to consider the present prices as.excessive, But, as @ matter of fact, the average price obtained by the Cuban producers this year has not yet reached 4% cents per pound. It must be taken Into account that by reason of the drought which has prevailed, this year’s Cu- ban crop will be more than half a million tons below the estimates. “As a rpult of the tariff duty, which increases the price to the con- sumer about 2 cents for each pound of sranulated sugar, a campaign against sugar has been started, which in effect is directed against Cuban sugar, and should this campaign which some persons think ought to take the form of a boycott, succeed in forcing down the present price of sugar, it will bring about very serious Injury to Cuba. “It 1s necessary to stimulate produc-] ‘fon in order to prevent a shortage of sugar, with its corresponding high prices. Any campaign, therefore, which unduly lowers tha price would be prejudicial to the consumer, whose interest it fs to have an abundant supply {fn order not to be compelled to deprive himself of sugar or to; Pay too much for it. “It ts to be noted that the prea ent increase in the price of sugar ts world-wide, and that sugar is not the only article that has developed an up- ward trend. “Since Cuba imports principally from the United States nearly all ar- ticles which # consumes or uses, we are compelled to pay increases in price and must do so out of the pro- ceeds of our sugar. The greater part of, the profit accrues to the benefit of the American people themselves, to their farmers, laborers end manu. facturers, whose products we con- sume.” Early End to Coast Strike Is Predicted SAN FRANCISCO, Calif., May 5.—/ Reports that the strike of forest and marine workers called by the Indus: trial Workers of the World in Pacific coast states April 26 soon would end so far as Washington was concerned, | the anticipated arrival of 200 men to replace strikers at Los Angeles and the closing of a number of soft drink,| and other establishments at Portland, Ore., were high spots in the walkout today, { WHEAT PRIGES OPEN HIGHER Liverpool Market Fails to Re- pana to Decline Friday at Chicago.
