SAYS CARGOES ARE FILTERED
Herrick Protests to Hoover Against
Practice Now in Vogue.

Chicago. Aug. 16. Charging that
some steamships today use bills of
lading SO phrased as to make possible
the avoidance of claims which should
be paid in full, Charles E. Herrick,
chairman of the traffic commission of
the Institute Of American Meat Pack
ers, today submitted formal protest
to Secretary of Commerce Hoover.
Herrick complained that the present
lax provision for adjusting claims en-
couraged pilfering from the cargo
while shippers OF perishable commodi-
ties suffer loss because of the per-
mission granted water carriers to
deviate from the scheduled voyage to
such a wide extent.
Mr.. Herrick's letter gave an
instance in which he asserted that
81, 500 worth of merchandise had been
pilfered, from a 1000 shipment and
asserted that it seemed evident to
the shippers that the vessels must be
rationing their crews from the-cargo."
He said the pilferage brought
American exporters into disrepute
with foreign buyers and suggested
that the abuses could hardly be reme-
died without legislation.

Allied Chemical.

The passage by the Senate late Tues
day of the emergency tariff bill with its
anti-dumping clause rigidly restricting
the importation of foreign dyes pro-
duced yesterday buying or chemical
stocks and. although II was insufficient
to put those stocks up very sharply, It
had the. effect OF eliminating them from
the decline which hit a large portion OF
the list. Transactions in the common

sixth Day OF Decline.

Yesterday was another day of d..
cline. the sixth consecutive session a.
trading in which price averages have
moved to lower levels. Trading was
not particularly heavy. falling just
short OF the million mark, and al no
time did there appear TO be any es-
pecial attack against stock or group
OF stocks. Rather. steady pressure was
exerted most of the day on practically
the entire list. and except in the in
stances OF few individual issues. sucn

United states steel.

Steel common was watched with
great deal of interest by traders
throughout the session. because. al
though it was evident that pressure was
being directed against the stock during
the best part of the day, little progress
was made on the downward side AMI
the closing figure was only 81 under
Wednesdays final quotation. The pres
sure was sufficient however to pre- !
vent the stock from rallying even frac-
tionally as did some Independent steels
which had been sold so heavily on
Wednesday. A trick of the traders IN
recent markets has been to leave Steel
common entirely alone right up 10 the
end of a move and then to turn sud
denly to that erstwhile market leader
and give 1t a whirl one way or the
other in terminating the movement,
whether up or down.
