GENERAL MOTORS FALLS OFF SOME
But No Collapse Results From
 Tip" Denial

New York, Aug. Pl-Specula- tors for the advance retained con- trol of the price movement in to- days stock market, despite a brief but spirited selling movement start ed around midday by the publica- ton of statement by Thomas Cochran of J. P. Morgan & Co. de- nying that he predicted an advance of 100 points in General Motors common stock. General Motors opened at 214l5, new record top, broke to 205la under a savage bear attack soon after the opening, ral- lied to 21S and was selling around 211 when the Cochran denial ap- peared. It immediately broke to 206i2, but had climbed above 211 again within an hour,
 Extreme declines of 5 to points took place in a number of other is- sues, but the market swept upward again under the leadership of Amer ican Smelting, Baldwin, Montgomery Ward, Case Threshing Machine and General Electric, all of which sold or more points above yesterdays final quotations. More than a score issues established new high levels for the year. or longer, during the session, including |. S. Steel com- mon.

 Oil shares gathered strength on the declaration of an extra dividend by Standard Oil of Indiana. Rails were quiet and sluggish. probably because of the temporary monopo- lizatton of speculative interest by the high priced industrials.
 Pools resumed activity on a large scale, being influenced in part by the lowering of the renewal rate on call money and the gradual increase in public participation.
 . Awave of selling swept over the market almost immediately after the opening, driving |. s. Steel and General Motors down and g points. respectively, from their in itial highs. Rapid recoveries took place, and by the end of the first half hour the two leaders were again surging upward while the campaign for higher prices was pursued viz orously in other quarters. Public participation continued to broaden in response to President Coolidge's s review of the last three years, the predictions in high banking quar- ters of continued business improve ment and the performances of the stock market leaders, motor and oil shares, were in brisk demand while strong features among the special, ties included American Can, United Drug, American Brake Shoe, Coca. Cola, Savage Arms and Associated Dry Goods. Rallies of 1S and 16 points in Belgian and French francs marked the opening of the foreign exchange market. Demand sterling was steady

PHILADELPHIA, July 5.-The

NAL Exposition yesterday further
stimulated the protests of ministers
and others in their fight against the
open Sunday at the exposition.
Mayor Kendrfck was severely crit
cized from many pulpits and members
Of congregations were urged to remain
away from the exposition. There will
be a series Of protest meetings IN
churches. ending with big demon

day night.
Rev. Dr. William B. Forney. secre.
tary of the Philadelphia Sabbath AS.
ISOLATION, intimated that the associa.
ton was planning legal steps to com
pei strict observance Of the Sunday
laws.
I'VE have no thought Of relenting
in our fight against the affront that
has been given the righteous forces of
the city and of the entire country" he
said.
A storm caused some damage to
buildings at the exposition. Tons of
rain water collected on the roof Of the
Palace of Agriculture constituted such
a menace that workmen were ordered
to chop holes through the roof to pre-
vent collapse.
AS the result of the precedent as to
opening on Sunday set by the exposi-
ton, amusements in the city of York
did business yesterday, including
movies. league base ball and amuse-
ment parks. A State law forbids COM
mercial amusements on Sundays. Gov.
Pinchot wrote to Philadelphia clergy
men regarding the exposition that the
State was powerless to enforce these

AMERICAN ELIGIBLE
TO WE'D PRINCESS
Queen Marie Says She
Wouldn't Object il She
Loved Him.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
BUCHAREST, July 5.-Queen Marie
Of Rumanie. would like to have
Princess Ilyana. her youngest daugh-
ter. marry the Prince of Wales, but
would have no objection to her marry
ing an American If she really loved
him.
The Queen. who has decided def
nitely to spend three or four months
in the United States this Fall, will
be accompanied by the princess and,
possibly. Prince Nicholas, her young
est son. If King Ferdinand does not
make the trip with her he probably
will call at New York at the con-
clusion of her stay for the return
voyage.
"Of course" the queen told the
Associated Press correspondent, Il
would like Ilyana to marry the
Prince Of Wales. but that young man
doesn't seem to be of the marrying
kind.
Only IL Years Old.
Certainly, no one could afford to
spurn the throne OF England. least Of
all one who is so thoroughly English
as myself. But, as I said before,
don't think the Prince OF Wales is
seeking a partner for the throne.
And, then, who knows whether he
actually will ever take over the
throne? Perhaps his brother will get
it."
The queen also denied Y7lmors that
the princess intended to marry King
Boris Of Bulgaria, or an Italian or
Belgian prince.
"As a matter Of fact, che still is
only a child. as you can see." she
said. pointing to the 17.yearold
princess sitting nearby. "She can af.
ford to wait. My dearest wish is
that when she does marry she Will
be as happy as her sister Marie. who
is now Queen of Jugoslavia- Marie
and the young Jugoslav king love one
another truly and are superlatively
happy"
May Write Scenario.
as it true the correspondent
asked. that you are writing a seem
ariO for film to be produced by an
American company and that you may
appear in the picture yourself?'
II may write a scenario some time
in the future. IL l get the time" her
majesty replied. But certainly
shall never be so vain or SO foolish as
to appear personally in a film.
You must remember that 1 am
now so. What part could ! play in
a film, even If had the desire TO APP
pear? The only role would be as
grandmother or as a 'mOther-in law.
And l am sure Americans haven't
much use either for grandmothers or
for mothers-inlaw. They want young
err people"
The queen now is completing a no.
nance based on Rumanian life and
soon Will start a new series of ar
ticles. She receives on an average of
10 letters day from American
women.

CANTON, China, July 5.-The
Canton government insists that it be
treated with respect by the foreign
powers. but it does not expect from
them the sort of recognition granted

long letter received by Douglas Jen-

from the acting foreign minister of
the Canton regime, in reply to a re-
cent letter written by Mr.. Jenkins,
stating that while he was pleased to
correspond directly with the govern
ment at Canton. it was to be under
stood that recognition was not i'm
piled.
The acting foreign minister wrote:
II believe the best interests of the
American people and of the Chinese
people as represented by government
would be served if I make the cate
gorical statement that while my gov
eminent demands that it be treated
with respect, it neither desires nor

A Maori burial cave of great an
tiquity and Importance has been found
in wild mountainous country in Auck-

The discoveries were lowered into
the cave by ropes. They were met by
an eerie sight as the candlelight flick.

dead warriors of many generations.
The most noticeable find was the
mummified body of chieftainess of
high rank, indicating that the pres

in the cave. A noticeable point was
the fact that the teeth in skulls hun.

sity In opinion as to the proper volt

ess. Some seem to think that very
high voltage, say %. for a few sec

the filament at normal brllllancy. that
Is, rated current for period, or vice
versa. However, my observations
have been that burning the filament
at slight overload for short time,
and then at rated current for long
time Is very successful. However, In
either case, the purpose OF the proc
ess Is TO ahollg Out to the surface OF
the flament some OF the dormant ac-
tive material.
In the accompanying diagram. !
have shown a UV201A tube connected
for the purpose Of flashing the fla
ment. The only connections neces-
sary are the two leads from the fla
ment posts OF the socket connected In
series with a rheostat and 6-volt
battery. AS to the time required for
flashing, l suggest that those who try
this process to impress the full six
volts across the alament for about
one minute, and then by means OF the
rheostat reduce the voltage until the
filament burns at normal brllliancy. /
Then allow the filament to burn for
a period Of u hours or more. II

be applied to the BV199 tube or any
