RECOGITION HOVE WILL BE DELAYED State Department Waits {0 Watch New Regimes ‘Washington, Sept. 10 (UP)—State department officials today reiterated they must refuse to comment for the time being on the question of recognizing any of the new South American governments. The statement followed overtures from the new Argentine regime to the effect they would respect their international obligations and were planning to send a new ambassador to Washington as early as practi- cable. It was said in an authoritative quarter that each case concerning recognition would be detlt with upon its individual merits. It was added that the United States government did not wish to have the impression given circula- tion-that by delaying recognition it was taking an unfriendly attitude toward any of these governments, but it sincerely desired before rec- ognizing any of the new regimes, to be absolutely convinced of their stability and assured that they will comply with the traditional princi- ples of international law. The present general unrest throughout South America was also considered likely to delay recogni- tion, it was asserted, because this tended to make the question’of the stability of any of the new govern- ments more important than ordi- narily would be the case. PLANES MUST FLY AT HIGH ALTITUDE Yacht Race Crowd fo Be Pro- tected Under Air Ruling Washington, Sept. 10 (P—Air- planes which fiy over the area where the America's cup races between the Sir Thomas Lipton’s yacht “Sham- yock V” and the American Yacht “Enterprise” will be held at New- port, R. I, on September 13, must do so at a high altitude. Clarence M. Young, assistant sec- retary of commerce, said today that planes must not descend lower than 1,000 feet over the course. “A large number of persons are expected to be congregated in the immediate vicinity of the race course,” Young said, “and this will constitute an assemblage of persons within the meaning of the air com- merce regulation. The regulation provides that no flight under 1,000 feet in height shall be made over an open-air assemblage of persons ex- cept with the consent of the secre- tary of commerce.” Real Estate News ‘Warranty Emil Ginter, et al, to Ludwig W.

UNDERTONE FIRM ON BOND HARKET High Grade Rails Slip Off Slightly in Session New York, Sept. 10 () — Bonds were firm and moderately active to- day. Some of the high grade rails slipped off slightly in the earlier hours as inquiry was directed toward issues carrying high yields, but in the main price levels were well maintained and some fair advances appeared throughout the list. Baltimore & Ohio gold 4s, Chi- cago, Indianapolis & Louisville 6s, golf | Missouri Pacific 5s, Western Mary- |land 4s, Canadian National 43%s of 1957 and Central Pacific 5s were among the firmer rails, but South- ern Pacific first 4s, Union Pacific first 4s and 4%s and St. Louis & San Francisco 41%s eased. The last named sold off to around 92%, which was the price placed on today's of- fering of an additional $10,000,000 block under the same mortgage, the total of which is $100,000,000. Pub- lic sale of the bonds was announc- ed, although it was understood that part of the block had been placed | privately with institutions. Utilities showed marked firmness, although the Postal Telegraph 5s were again inclined to ease. Inter- national Telephone 5: 53 s and Pacific Gas 5s scored small early gains. Nervousness over the situation in Argentina appeared to have passed and the bonds of the South Ameri- can republic again stiffened, al though the advances held to some- what less than a point. Other for- eign obligations were firm. There was little change in the liberties and treasuries, which have been inactive in recent sessions. Certain-Teed 514s, Goodyear Tire 5s, Shell ion Oil 5s, without war- rants, and Standard of New Jersey 5s found higher ground in the in- dustrial and specialty division, where Inland Steel 4%s went to a new high. National Dairy 5 1-4s were active and steady. Improvement in share prices was reflected in increasing interest in the stock feature listings. Reading Coal and Iron 6s, which have been making steady progress, ralled an- other point. International Tele- phone 4%s, Shell Union Oil 5s with Southern Pacific warrant 43s and \Warner Bros. Pictures averaged about half a point higher Rails of this description were gen- erally quiet.
