HIGH-GRADE BONDS
STRONG IN MARKET
Heavy Buying of Liberties of All
Maturities-Some Rails Frac-
tionally Higher.
BY GEORGE II. HUGHES.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, June 4-The bond
market was very strong again today,
especially in the high grade invest
ment list. There was heavy buying
of libertys of all maturities, and new
high records for the year were made
by the firsts ANS, the second Az s.
the third Ans, while the fourth AZ s
equaled the high for the year. Al
the same times the gilt-edge rails
and industriaIs were firm at the top
prices of the year, and some of them
made new records, notably q. S. Steel
sinking fund SIS. Among the rails,
Union Pacific first As, Atlantic Coast
Line As, New York Central 3hs, B.
e. o. first As and Canadian Pacific is
were all higher fractionally.
Second Grades Show Advances.
Bonds of middle and second grade
such as st. Louis and San Francisco
prior lien A As and Southern Railway
general As and Missouri, Kansas and
Texas prior lien A SIS shared the i'm
p-ovement Among the utilities,
Public Service of New Jersey 5s were
firm around the recent high and
American Water Works and Electric
Collateral Trust 5s made new high
for the year the latter doubtless in
sympathy with the stock. Hudson
and Manhattan refunding 5s held
their gain. while the income bonds
were again heavily bought at the
top price.
In the speculative railroad group
ADVANCES were the rule and declines
the exception. New Haven issues ex-
hibited unusual strength. especially
the skies There was more buying of
Missouri Pacific general As at higher
prices and sustained strength in the
skies. AS was to have been expected
from the strength in the stock Erie
bonds were also higher today. Sea-
board Air Line adjustments had a
better market than in a long time.
ST. Paul issues were about steady.
Foreikn List in Waiting Attitude.
As far as the foreign bonds were
concerned the market adopted a
waiting attitude.
The demand for high grade mu-
nicipals was demonstrated by the
price brought in Tuesdays sale of
New York City Corporate stock and
bonds. These new securities to the
amount of s67.40o,oo0 were offered
today to the public at prices to yield
from 3.5 TO AS per cent, the higher
return for the longest maturity.

RAIL SHARES CENTER

Definite Defeat of Extra Congress!

SOUTHERN R. r. AT NEW HIGH
Industrials Irregular-0ils Kept

BY STUART p. WEST.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
/. WALL STREET, NEW YORK, Jun,
4.-With the project for an extra ses
sion of Congress definitely defeated
railway shares became the center o
interest in the stock market today
The buying was directed principally
howard medium and low priced mem
bers of the group, the leader beins
Southern Railway common. This stocl
ran up points to a new high, above
81 1t was remarkable movement
and bore witness to the confidence
felt in the cotton price outlook an6
in another prosperous season IN the
south. Shares of other Southern roads
were strong, especially the SeaboarC
Air Lines.
q Erie Common Pushed.
J Erie common was taken up for the
first time in a long while and pushed
forward more than point on unuSu-
ally large transactions. This was. OF
course. a purely speculative move
as Were most of the others in the
low-priced rails. The president o.
the Pittsburgh and West Virglnis
fatty contradicted both reports which
had been back of the recent buying
one that the Van SchW eringers were
buying into the property Win tht
idea of uniting it with the Nlcke
Plate, the other than a plan for tht
segregation of coal lands from The
railroads interests was being worked
out.
Yet, speculation in Pittsburgh anc
West Virginia stock was not dis
couraged. Rock Island common. IT

speculative quarters only. Specia

low for all time. The remarkable
advance continued in American Water
Works. which at its high was up II
points within two days.
French francs broke badly AGAR
well below the scent level. thus dis
posing of most of the conjectures
which had been made the day before
concerning the bank of France and
the part it was playing in the mar
ket. Presumably the s10o,000.00(
American credit is intact and avail

any use were being made Of this

FREIGHT SME4 FACTOR
IN LIVE STOCK PRICES
Bureau of Railway Economics An
nounces Results of Survey Made
of Four Large Markets.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
Freight charges on live stock are
a relatively small factor on the price
paid to the seller the bureau of raIl-
way economies concludes in study
announced today covering sales at
the four large markets between Octo-
Der Is last to March 10.
The principal factors inftuenclnS
the sellers net proceeds are the quaI-
ity of the stock and marketing con
ditions, the bureau states, while
transportation costs permit the Tree
movement of live stock to the various
marketing centers from a CONSIDER
able range of territory.
Out of each dollar paid 10 producers
of live stock freight charges were
found to take 81 cents and other
marketing charges % cents. leaving
the net proceeds returned 10 tne SUP
per ola cents. An analysis unner-
taken by the National Live Stock
Producers Association for the year
1929, which was quoted in the report,
placed freight charges at 3.Ls cents,
other mark keting costs at z.o' cents
and the net proceeds returned to the
shipper at 80 .55 cents.

RAW SUGAR UNCHANGED.

NEW YORK, June 4.-No further
changes were reported in the local
raw sugar market early today. with
offerings at last prices of 500 duty
paid for Cubans. Twenty thousand
bags of Cubans for second half June
shipment were sold to a local re-
finer.
Continued liberal offerings in the
spot market at last prices discourage
ed fresh buying in raw sugar futures
and led to renewed selling for both
local and foreign accounts. Prices at
midday were five to eight points net
lower. 81. t..--t>>- -
Only a moderate inquiry was re-
ported for rednedp sugar. Prices were
unchanged to ten points lower at

"RAMsAYGRAD" is TABOO.
Too Horrible to Replace "London,
Says British Premier.

LONDON, June Great Britain
has received the assurance of Ram
say Macdonald that Ramsaygrad
ingrad had replaced Petrograd. which
at one time was known as st. Pc
tersburg.
At a dinner the other night, at
which the British prime minister
spoke, il was humorouSly mentioned
that such a possibility existed. Mr.
Macdonald quickly quieted the fears
of the diners, saying it had been his
painful duty to listen to and read of
many of his own possible Grimes
but he had never heard it suggested
before that he was capable of in
venting or applying such "a horriMe
name" as Ramsaygrad.

FRENCH FRANC MEETS
VARIED CONDITIONS
Undergoes Unparalleled Fluctua-
tions Within Three Months-An
Glasses Feeling Effects.
v Radio to The Star.

By Radio to The Star.
PARIS. June within three
months the French franc has under
gone unparalleled fluctuations, cascad-
ing from sixteen to twenty-eight to
again to 81 and rushing up once more
to 19. The fluctuations have re-
acted to the detriment of both whole
sale and retail prices, so that all
classes of society have felt the effect
and have come to long for stabiliza-
tion OF exchange.
No subject. save politics. comes in
for a great amount of comment from
the written and the spoken word. If
everybody wishes Stabilization, how
ever. he does not wish ii at the same
level Here and there is a definite
conflict between industry and the
politicians.
NJ. Herriots Object.
NJ. Herriot and the new masters OF
parliament want to drive the franc
back toward normal just as far as
possible, partly from reasons of pres
tige and partly from reasons of pop
ular cxpediency. Wages are calcu-
lated on a level OF approximately l.
francs to the dollar and prices on a
level of is or higher. The difference
is ruinous to the poor man and small
saIaried empIoye, who constitute the
great mass of Herriot supporters.
Big business, on the other hand
sees the crisis differently. 1t wants
to keep the franc at the present Level
so that il can obtain cheap labor and
cheap materials to enable it to COM
pete with it's foreign rivals. When
the franc stood lowest French manu-
facturers undertook a large-scale
campaign of dumping in Great Britain
and Germany and, to some extent, il
the United States.
Restricted business Results.
When exchange rose to its highes,
last month French big business hac
to restrict operations painfully. Now
that money is slumping again exports
are prospecting again. A moot ques'
tion of great interest is the extent tc
which the fluctuations of exchange
has caused the flight of capital. Ger
many almost collapsed under the i'm
petus of similar movement
The important point is whether tht
bulk of credit balances is kept IL
French or in foreign banks. So fal
as can be guessed at present. French
banks still predominate.

as to whether the Negro is an asset

is rapidly approaching an acuse stage
and that the "lilyMhite" element
within that organization has taken
the affirmative side Of the PROPOSE

management as wsll as that of the
Republican candidates seems to be
one of benevolent neutrality.
The Democratic managers have
quickly taken advantage of this uni
que situation by making an appeal
for the Negro vote, in localities
where a few thousand votes will
decide the election. AS a result, we
note chat Negro bureaus have been
organized under the skillful man
agement of some of the ablest Negro
leaders. The Negro as a political
