LATE LIQUIDATION ON NEW YORK CURB AFFECTS TRADING|


 NEW YORK, Dec. 14.-The curb mar ket today showed generally firm tone, although the usual liquidation of holdings. a feature of trading toward the year-end had an influence in causing recessions in stocks that had been active recently. This condition was most pronounced in the Standard oil issues in which the demand and supply were about evenly balanced. but which sold at concessions at times be- cause holders did not care to insist bet ter bids in closing their accounts. There was continued accumulation of many of the motor stocks and some issues were again established at new highs Durant Motor sold at the new high of 71k in the early trading and Peerless Motor moved up 1 E to the new high of Fl.
 standard Oil issues generally moved within a narrow range. Indiana first ad- vancing ss to 1171a and then dropping to below 1f6. Standard oil of New Jer- sey was traded in at 40 to 39h. Prairie Pipe Line dropped points to around sos demand and advanced 2ia points to 174h Mammoth yielded nearly one point to 42.

 our market has advanced under heavy buying for Liverpool account, some Of which bought against the stradde which had been put out against purchases in that market at the 26c level. Suffi- cient realizing appeared to check the mar ket, but there was scarcity of offerings so that in the early afternoon the market again turned strong with the May position passing the 26c level. The strength in the dry goods market in America Is a most encouraging factor and with the mills yet quirements we continue to look for higher prices, although from now on we must ex- pect many sharp reactions.

Recommendations of the Ameri-
can Radio Relay League 10 the Ma
tional Radio Conference. which
opened in Washington yesterday,
embraces the following proyi-
sions. which. in fact. will provide for
the setting aside of a wave band
from 0 to 275 meters subject to the
following divisions of traffic
O-175 meters novice telegraphers:
i75-200 meters. amateur phone sta
tons 22O-230 meters, amateur spark
stations: 280-250 meters, amateur
Z w telegraph stations: 250-275
meters. amateur special licensed sta
tons.
A probable result of the national
conference will be the granting of a
franchise for exclusive use of certain
wave lengths to public service corpo-
rations, which would establish pub
lie radio telephone pay stations for
The convenience of business men.
Such a solution of the existing mud
died situation was in the mind of
Secretary Hoover when he brought
the question up at a cabinet meet
ing several weeks g and found
President Harding in a very sympa-
thetS frame of mind.
An application for the use of a
SOutoillcHl WdNcie0SlH LOT -StTlCtly
commercial business is already be-
fore the Department Of Commerce.
It il understood the application is
made by one of the large, public SER
vice companies which has hundreds
of clients clamoring for the use of
\ public radio pay station" A
convention of Radio Amateurs and
Scientists held in Washington last
week voted to recommend to the
Department Of Commerce that COM
mercial radio b~roadcasting be as
signed definitely to the 1,000-1, 500
meter wavelength class and that
amateurs be allowed the 100000 me-
ter waves.
In fact a permit has been granted
for the erection of a wireless tele-
phone broadcasting station by the
American Telephone and Telegraph
Company on the roof of the Walker
Lispenard building in New York city.
1t Is to be a public radio broadcast
ing station, the first in existence.
and will handle for the public the
distribution OF news, music Or other
programs on a commercial basis.
Anyone may talk from this station
Just as anyone can talk at a nickel
in-the-slot telephone.

b~roadcasted tomorrow on $50 me-
tiers by w j. u. (Newark) follows:
