mite information be secured" by crop
reporters concerning damage by in

Mr.. Allgood said in his communi-
cation that information gained while

Of Alabama. caused him to believe
that "spinnerS and spectators had
the advantage over the farmer in

ditions of the crop.
Mr. Allgood asks Secretary Wallace
to deal specifically with insect dam
age in comparison with last year and
to show what per cent of the cotton
crop has been destroyed as indicated
by fallen squares, punctured bolls and

CHICAGO GRAIN MARKET.

CHICAGO. August 13.-Strained re-
lations between Great Britain and
France together with disturbed con-
ditions in Germany led to a decline
in wheat prices today during the
early dealings. A new low level for
francs and setback in wheat quo
tations at Liverpool gave emphasis to
bearish sentiment. Selling, however,
was more or less checked by predic-
tions of a shortage of bread wheat
this season east of the Rockies and
by the curtailment of the estimate Of
WELD in Canada. Opening prices,
which varied from unchanged figures

WEAKNESS SHOWN
SS SS''
| IN OIL AND RUBBER
General List, However, Ex-
hibits Notable Strength.
Few Individual Features.
BY STUART =. WEST.

Special Dispatch TO The Star.
NEW YORK. August 13.-The stock
market today repeated it's procedure
of Saturday in proving its ability to
stand up against the special weak
and in some of the oils. The strength
of the general list was the more
nota BILE In view of the news from Eu-
rope and the slash!ng of oil prices in
the northwest Even the oil stocks
themselves were not especially senst-
tive to the efforts to force down gaso-
line prices. They appeared TO have
become Injured to bad news.
There were very few features in
the movements of individual stocks.
The main thing was the steadiness
. TO the drop in United States Rubber
issues. Rubber preferred below SO
was the lowest since the period of
great depression in 1921.
{ short Covering Brings Rally.
. Short covering was apparently re-
sponsible for the rally in the leather
shares. one of the weak spots last
week. Traders were impressed by
the strong behavior of Corn Products
and of American Can. 1t was said
that the can companies are doing a
capacity business The removal OF
all pressure from the steel stocks
was another point of interest. II
seemed to show that the bear party
has gone as far as TX dareS to in this
direction, in view of the new business
coming into the steel companies
Railway shares were dull but steady
Among the public utilities Consoli-
dated Gas and Columbia Gas were
the leaders. Consolidated Gas Is be
ing bought every time 1t goes around
60 by investors attracted by the
promise of d return on their money
of over per cent. Also they feel
sure that the Supreme Court Will in
validate the dollar gas law.
Basis of Gas Strength.
There were two reasons for the
strength in Columbia Gas. One was
the announcement by the president
that employees were to be offered the
right to subscribe on the partial pay
ment system for stock at 32l2 The
other was the news that the Public
Service Commission of West Virginia
had granted an increase of cents
per thousand cubic feet to the United
Fuel Gas Company. operating in that
state. This. II was estimated, would
add some 100000 a year to the value
of the business of this company
which is a subsidiary of Columbia
Gas.
