BULLISH FERVOR DROPS ON CURB Resumption of Yesterday’s Pro- fit Taking Carries Briefly New York, Sept. 11 (A—The bulls lost some of their fervor on the cur market today. A resumption of yesterday's profit taking at the opening carried through the fore- noon hours, but there was some en- couragement for the cause of high- er prices in the fact that trading turned dull on the decline. Short selling was relatively inef- fective and stocks acquired consid- | erable stability by afternoon when | efforts wefe made to point the mat- ket higher. The small variations in the active stecks were reminscent of the quiet summer days when prices drifted. Utilities, which have been the lead- erstin recent bullish demonstrations, met support just below yesterday's closing prices and recovered their small losses with little difficulty, but | these shares, as a group, were fea- tureless. g United Gas and Appalachan Gas | turned over rather briskly in their | division, holding within small frac- | tions of Wednesday's final _levels. | United Light, Electric Bond & | Share and American Superpower were steady. Diamond Match new, American cynamid, Ford of England, Aviation Corp. of Americas and other usual- | ly active specialties and industrials lagged. There was a flurry in General Baking, but it failed t6 carry far. Oils - and investment company stocks eased moderately, making few moves that extended beyond frac- tions. Himble sagged a point, but Cosden oil firmed .Chemical Na. tional Associates, TUnited States & Overseas and National Investors yielded slightly. Call money renewed at 3 per cént. Joé Clark Section Name of New Junior Tentplars The newly formed organization of | Junior Templars of Honor and pionship. Lacey, after being three down at| the ninth, ralled to take the-11th' and 12th and the rest of the holes were halyed. The 16th was played in | the manner of fourth flight players | rather than crack professionals. It was a half at seven. Both drove in| the rough, Lacey had to use a| ®.ashie niblick out and then put a| spoon shot in the woods finally| reaching the green in five. Sampson put his third in a trap, and failed to get out in his effort. PARAMOUNT PUBLIX WILL | DENY THEATER'S CHARGES Allegations That Concern Has Mon- opoly Characterized As Absurd By Its Attorney New York, Sept. 11 (UP—A de- nial of anti-trust law violation charges filed against the Paramount Publix corporatjon by the Strand '+ Amusement company of Portland, 1Me., will be entered when the suit T is answerable in federal court at Boston on December 2, Austin Keough, Paramount attorney, sald today. Allegations that the motion pic- ture concern’s activities in produc- tion and distribution of films consti- tutes a monopoly and enables Para- mount to dictate exorbitant prices to the plaintift and other independ- ent companies were characferized by Keough as ‘ridiculous and absurd.” The suit will be handled by Para- mount’s Boston attorneys, Friedman, Atherton, Ting and Turner, Keough said. He'll Be Legion’s NEA Washington Bureau. Highly hospitable is Russell N. Boardman, Boston aviator. He plans to fly across the Atlantic with invi- tations to European war veterans to attend the forthcoming American Legiop convention in Boston.

The change is in line with a re- trenchment policy ordered by rail- road officials. Mrs. Laufersweiler was the oldest employe from point of service back of the local ticket window, but was transferred because she was not a telegraph operator.

Plans REALTY SUIT FEE HEARD , Although the presiding judge and tho two attorneys in city court’ to- da understood the Polish language it was necessary to employ an inter- preter in order that testimony of one of the witnesses could be given in English.

USE HERALD CLASSIFIED ADS ————— Judge Refuses to Rule On Various Fly Breeds Chicago, Sept. 11 (A—The mu- nicipal court of Judge W. W. Damron has declined to rule upon the relative health of city flies and country flies. The charge against Steve Nich- opulos was that he displayed thin skinned fruits without providing any protection agaMst fifes. An official of the health de- partment was present. “You can’t make me believe,” the court said, “that those || peaches and other fruit never had || any flies on them before they || came to Chicago.” “‘Granted,” said the health offi- cer. “But those were country flies. It is city flies we are com- plaining against.” 5 The court refused to be drawn into any fly,argument, and dis- missed the case. COSGRAVE SENDS LIPTON MESSAGE, Irish President Says Country Hopes for 1931 Race Belfast, Northern Ireland, Sept. 11 (A—A message of good luck to Sir Thomas Lipton in his attempt to bring back the America's Cup with his new yacht Shamrock V, was sent today by President Cosgrove of the Irish Free State, through the Asso- ciated Press. “All Irishmen without distinction of party are united in wishing Sir Thomas success in his great enter- prise,” the message said. “He hails from Clones, which is in the Free State close to the border. His coun- trymen north of it, I have no doubt, are following his adventures with as great keenness and anxiety as we do. especially as his challenge is from & | northern yacht club. . “No sportsman can fail to admire | the spirit which Sir Thomas mani- fested in his repeated attempts to bring the cup té Ireland, and we | trust as a result of the present ser- ies to be given the opportunity of welcoming thousands of Americans to our shores when the next contest takes place.” Ofticers of the Royal Ulster Yacht club in Belfast have gone to the United States for the cup races. 4 MISSION TO CONTINUE Lima, Peru, Sept. 11 (UP)—The United States naval mission to Peru, headed by Admiral Willlam §.

Activity fell off somewhat as syndicates sold several new issues, but the undertone was firm. There was good news for the mar- ket in Secretary Mellon's decision cent treasury notes on March 31 next, for this obviously means that the treasury expects to refund at a lower interest rate and therefore anticipates a continuation of cheap money, which will help bonds in general. The heavy oversubscription to the September 15 offering of cer- tificates, totaling $325,000,000 and bearing 2% interest, also received | favorable comment. Utilities occupied the most prom- inent place in the day's new financ- ing, but the offering of more than $23,000,000 in loans of that descrip- tion failed to affect prices of listed issues, which tended higher. The /largest sale was a $15,000,000 issue of Electric Power & Light 100 year debenture 5s at 92%. Central Maine Power Co. market- ed a $5,00,000 block of 4%s due in 1957, at 993%, while Sierra Pacific Power Co., floated a $1,400,000 loan in 30 year first 5s at 95. ails were represented by a $12,000,00 issue of Chicago & Northwestern first mort- gage 4%s, due 2037, at 99%. The remaining offering was $2,400,000 in first mortgage 4!4s of Cumberland County (Maine) Power & Light Co. at 95%. The market heard that Gillette Safety Razor was soon to offer a $20,000,000 jssue of 5 year convert- ible 5s. Turnovers in the higher grade domestic rails were small and price changes slight. A few of the low- e: priced issues were moderately active, especially the St. Paul 5s of 2,000, which climbed more than a point. Western Maryland 4s rose nearly one. American Telephone | listings, Columbia Gas & Electric :’:s{ and Pacific Gas 5s showed quiet | strength in narrow trading. Among the industrails and specialties, there were slight recessions in Remington Rand B}%s, a warrant issue and U. | 8. Rubber 5s. McKesson & Robbins 5%s and McCrory Stores 53;s ral- lied. Considerable firmness came into | the foreign section, where Argen- tines again pointed higher on light demand. United States governments were steady and featureles % LONDON FLIGHT MADE POSSIBLE BY JUSTICE| Seizure of Monoplane Quashed By Judge—Aviator May Hop Off This Saturday Montreal, Sept. 11 (P)—The seizure of the Bellanca monoplane Columbia was quashed today by Chief Justice | Greenshields, freeing the Columbia for the transatlantic flight of Captain | J.

Sir Thomas Lipton's | latest challenger for the famed America’s cup, returned to her ele- | ment today after her final grooming | for the greatest of all yachting| classics.

Enterprise immediately | left for Newport, where a corps of sallmakers awaited her. New Rochelle Publisher | Meets New Tennis Star | Forest Hills, N. Y., Sept. 11 (®— | The quartér final round matches of | the pational tennis singles cham- | plonship opened this afternoon with a pitched battle between the voung- er and older generations of Ameri- can players as represented by vouthful Johnny Doeg and the 38 year old Frank Hunter. Hunter ranks second and Doeg third in the national list but the California youngster was favored as the New Rochelle publisher’s play this season has not been up to par. ‘ NUTT APPLIES FOR PERMIT | Washington, Sept. 11 (P—Joseph R. Nutt, of Cleveland, treasurer of | the republican national committee, today applied to the interstate com- merce commission for permission to serve as a director of the Cleveland & Youngstown Railroad company.

ROAD'S PAYMENT DROPS New York, Sept. 11 (#—The Chi- cago, Milwaukee & St. Paul railroad has declared an interest payment of only 1% per cent on the adjustment bonds, in lieu of the 21 per cent payment due October 1 for the six| to retire $1,149,000,000 of 3% per [% Market Closes Only Frac- tion Above Peak of July * 28—Much Liquidation Is Absorbed. New York, Sept. 11 (A—The still convalescent stock market required a breathing spell today, after the strenuous bullish efforts of the first half of the week had finally lifted the generay level of prices over the rough places which wrecked the bull movement of July. Although the market closed yes- terday only a fraction above the peak of July 28, as measured by the index of 90 issues, much liguidation had to be absorbed on the way, and pool operators were anxious to get their bearings before further ambi- tious undertakings. Trading slump- ed, and pricks generally eased, al- though sporadic bidding up of spe- cialties gave the market a spotty ap- pearance. Such stocks as U. S. Steel, Ameri- can Can, American Telephone, Gen- eral Electric, New York Central, -Air Reduction and Johns Manville lost a point or more. Shares losing 2 to more than 3 included American Water Works, Pacific Lighting, Stone and Webster, Gulf States Steel, U. S, Industrial Alcohol and Allied Chemial. Case dropped more than 5. On the other hand, Vanadium, Foster Wheeler, Gillette, National Steel, Coca Cola, Safeway and Shat- tuck rose 2 to 3. Grain Sag Helps The decline was probably influ- enced in part by the sag in the grain markets, in response to the government's Sept. 1 crop estimates. The corn estimate placed the crop at the lowest in years, but was about 50,000,000 bushels higher than several private estimates had indj- cated. The further slight rise in the estimate of wheat production sent most positions to around the lowest prices of the season. Selling of grains, nevertheless, was not in large Aolume, and as it failed to 8ain headway. stocks manifested a better tone. Bears in stocks appear- ed none too sure of themselves. Corporate news was on the whole mixed and inconclusive. Southern Railway, after showing a heavy ton~ for a while, rallied briskly on de- claration of the regular quarterly dividend. No reduction in the divi- dend was expected in informed quar- ters at this time, however, as it has been the road's practice to provide for dividends one year ahead. so the real uncertainty is over pay- ment of dividends mext year. The failure of St. Paul railroad to meet the full half-yearly interest on its adjustment honds was disappointing but not unexpected. A payment of 1 1.2 per cent, in place of 2 1-2 per cent, had been largely discount- ed by the market for these liens. Several dividend omissions or reduc- tions were announced. Calumet and Hecla decided to forego its quarter- Iy payment altogether, after the re- cent reductions. The money market indicated an increasing supply of funds, call meney renewed at 2 1-2 per cent, but was soon available in the out- side market at 2. Wall street has been intensely interested of late over possible changes in the pro- gram of the federal reserve system under the recently appointed chair- man, Eugene Meyer, jr. While noth- ing new in the way of official com- ment has been available, some ob- servers in Wall street are expecting efforts to improve the market for real estate mortgages in the hope of reviving building activity, still a decided sore spot in the business situation.

WHEAT FORCED DOWN 70 NEW LOW LEVELS Decline Caused By Bearish Construc- tion Put On Government Crop Reports—Corn Sags. Chicago, Sept. 11 (A—Brisk sell- ing by commission houses and Chi- cago traders forced the March and May deliveries of wheat down almost cents a bushel to new low levels of the season at the start of trad- ing today. A bearish construction placed on the United States and Canadian official government crop reports issued yesterday after the close caused the decline. All de- liveries were sharply lower. Corn also was decidedly lower because the government report suggested a larger crop than the trade expected. Opening 1%-2c lower than yester- day’s finish, wheat declined still more, but the downward movement was checked and prices continued steady at the new levels. Corn start. ed 1%-2% down, sagged a little further and then rested. GILSON RENOMINATED ‘New Haven, Sept. 11 (P—Judge John L.
