B. Jackson of the International Petroleum Exposition, in his keynote address to thousands of ofl men attending the first exposi- tion here today. Mentioning this alm as the principal objective of the present gathering, the speaker urged that complete plans for its realiza- tion be formulated this. week, A committee of permanent organt- zation of the congress has been ap- pointed and will report Wednesday. | Other suggestions of President Jackson were that the international exposition be made an annual event, that ‘standardization of equipment be sought; that field workers be brought together in more intimate social contact; that the business be purged of the grafter and fake oll promoter; and that a home be estab- Ushed in the United States for su- perannuated workers of the produc- ing fields. | In touching upon the “grafter in oll,” President Jackson made It plain that “this congress does not censure or condemn individuals or companies who by sheer bad luck suffered misfortune. “When we ‘speak of take ofl pro- |ducers, we mean thoss men who, {without conscientious scruples, en- | ter the business, not for the Purpose of producing ofl, but for the purpose |of selling worthless stock to an un- | suspecting public.” He urged the adoption of a plan to educate “the investing public to discern between legitimate stock and | worthless paper offered by fake pro- |moters,” and complimented a group of Texas newspaper publishers who, [he said, had for some time been ‘active in such a campaign. ‘The projected permanent inter- national organization was described as “an institution of such magnitude as to take in every branch of the industry in every country in the world to meet annually and discuss the needs and requirements of the business and accomplish such good as may be possible through intensive organization and co-operation:” Officers Re-Elected By Domino-W yoming Co. ‘The annual meeting of the stock- holders of the Domino Wyoming Ojt company was held at its office, 201 Consolidated Royalty building, on Saturday, October 6, at which time the following named were re-clected to serve as the board of directors for the ensuing year: Charles E. ‘Winter of Casper, J.

OTOGK TRADING TO TRREGULAR \Sales Today On New York Exchange Marked by Conflicting Movements NEW YORK,’ Uet. i —Gontiletine Price movements characterized to |@ay’s stock market, with the main jtendency still downward. Bear trad ers succeeded in uncovering num erous weak spots, particularly among the motors and motor acces fortes, although the usual industria! |leaders offered good resistance to |selling pressure. Sales approximated 750.000 shares. | NEW YORK, Oct. 9.—Stock prices | continued to yield to selling pressu: |at the opening of today’s mark jand the general list presented a re actionary tone. Oils were in fre supply but the initial recessions jWere held to fractions. Baldwin Studebaker and other so-called Pivotal shares opened fractionall lower. Woolworth, up 1%, was oni of the few strong spots. Heaviness of the olls was attri buted in part to the announcement jof a cut in crude prices at the wel! |by California Petroleum. Motor: and motor accessories were again ,the targets of bear speculators losses of 1 to 2 points being record by Nash, Chandler, Mack Truc Bosch Magneto, Stewart Warner Speedometer, Fisher Body, Wills Overland preferred and Timken Roller Bearings. American Ice dropped four points and Eastman Kodak and Foundation company two each, Reading, Davison Chemical and DuPont each advanced about a point. Foreign exchanges opened firm with the ‘exception of German marks, which established a new low record for all time at six cents a hundred’ million, Increasing expression of confi dence in fall and winter business by leading bankers and business men failed to stimulate an interest on the long side of the markst. Bear traders continued their experimental short selling and succeeded in un covering a number of weak spots, particularly in the automotive and leather groups, U. 8, steel and most of the other industrial leaders of- fered stubborn resistance to selling pressure which was given impetus by the relatively high renewal rate of 5% per cent for call money. low records for the year were ished by Bosch Magneto at 25, 4%; Endicott Johnson at 62, off 3% and National Enameling at 4314; off 2%. Bethlehem Steel, Ameri can Agricultural Chemical preferred and Central Leather dropped 2 to 3 points.

WHEAT PRICES “GIVEN SETBACK Lack of Definite Action To- ward Co-operative Mar- keting Is Bearish CHICAGO, Oct. 9.—Wheat under went a sharp setback in price today soon after the opening. It becam juickly apparent that action of 1 wheat conferénce here in organizing national co-operative marketing association had failed to stimulate any important new buying. Heavy selling then set in, and in somo ages the price dropped 1% cents or more in a yertical line before the fall was checked. After opening un- changed to “ec lower, December $1.09% to $1.10 and May $1.13% to $1.13%, thamarket went downgrade’ with Uttle or no evidence of power to rally. Subsequently fresh declines took place under continued selling on the part of tracers who pointed out that at best it would take considerable time before the new co-operative as- sociation could function, Inasmuch 1s the plan would be {noperative un til 50 per, cent of growers had joined the organization. The close waa un- settled, 1%¢ to 2%@2%c net lower, December $1.07%@% to $1.07% and May $1.12% to $1.12%. Corn and oats refiected the weak- ness of wheat.
