EXCITING MOVIES
 BLAMED BY YOUTH
Winsted Murderer Seeks to
 Explain Actions

Winsted, Conn.,, July 26 R - ~John Billadella, confessed slayer of Rose Bordino, was formally com- mitted to Litchfield county jail at Litchfield today by Coroner Samuel Herman after he had been to the jail and talked with the youth.
 Billadella was committed early Monday on a mittimus to await in- structions from the coroner. The formal papers were made out by the coroner today and served by Constable Alfredo Franzosi. The time for an inquest has not been fixed by the coroner.
 It was stated today that when Billadella was being grilled by the officers late Sunday night and had made admission that he had en- ticed Rose Bordino into the coal bin of the abandoned factory of the New England Pin company he was asked why he did this. To Officer Joseph Carroll, the youth Is said to have replied that he was actuated by having seen "exciting moving pictures"
 He also said that he was im- pelled by such pictures to commit other acts and he referred to three previous attacks on young girls.
 The delay in holding an inquest is due to the serious illness of Mrs. Joseph Delutri, mother of Billadel- la, who was prostrated after she had been told of her sons confess sion. It is also understood that aft CT the disappearance of the Bor- dino girl Mrs. Delutri was so fear full of the safety of her two young daughters, sisters of John, that she kept them in the house or did not permit them to go out unless an adult was with them.
 She did not realize that she had in the house the one responsible for the disappearance of the Bor- dino girl.
 Billadella, 1t is understood, has shown no remorse while he has been locked up in jail. He has the StLlllS HUH Cl CllNC tilele ilS ii.tA when on Sunday night he was questioned about the girls disap- pearance and fixedly protested that he knew nothing about her.
 Billadella, 1t appeared, knew that the girls body had been found as soon as he returned to Winsted after his trip to Torrington Sunday evening. He stopped to talk about the finding of the body while on Main street He seemed indifferent about the matter and went home and went to bed. When called by an officer and taken to the police station for questioning Billadella was callous. Those who were pres ent at the questioning of the youth have since expressed their opinion that he evidently thought he could not be connected with the girls death. He maintained that he knew nothing about it, and his confession came bit unexpectedly. Even then he did not show emotion, and 1t is understood that he has said noth- ing nor given any indication that he had more> than passing interest in the crime.

MOTOR SHARES ARE BOUGHT IN FREELY
Upward Trend Of Market Is
 Continued

New York. July 26 P-Heayy buying of the motor shares featured the resumption of the upward move ment in today's stock market. Squalls of selling swept through the market from time to time, but they failed to halt the general upswing.
 General Motors crossed 223 to new peak price on reports that the first half years earnings would ex- ceed $14,000 share and that a 2 for split-up of stock was in con- temptation. Chrysler. Nash, Hud- son and Studebaker moved up l to 2 points. Pierce Arrow preferred on the other hand, broke more than 3 points a new low on publication of a relatively poor semi-annual re- port.
 Pools were again active in num- Der of specialties and succeeded, in many cases, in attracting an outside following, despite the cautionary ad- vices of some of the larger commis- sion houses. Union Carbide, Dupont, Bethlehem Steel preferred and Con- tinentaI Can, all reached new peak prices for the year.
 Oils were not affected by reports of a worldwide oil trade war as a result of the controversy now raging over the purchase of Russian oil by American companies.
 Reports of increased grain ship ments in the northwest stimulated buying of the railroad shares, Allan tic Coast Line moved up more than points and Louisville and Nash vile, Atchison, Reading. Union Pa cific, Lehigh Valley, Baltimore and Ohio, Bangor and Aroostook and Chesapeake & Ohio sold ] to 2l2 points above yesterdays final quo- tations.
 Wall Street Opening
 Stock prices moved within narrow and irregular limits at the opening of today's market. Continental h. surance opened point higher at 191. a new peak, and American Steel Foundries recorded a new top at 531a. Baldwin and General Motors improved fractionally on initial sales hut United Drug and Montana Power registered slight recessions. Heavy profit taking and bear sell ing impeded the efforts of specu- lators for the advance, who based their campaign on easy credit condi- tions and the prospects of good fall business. Steel shares were in brisk demand In anticipation of good quarterly statement by the United States Steel corporation after the close of the market. Woolworth and Lorillard moved into new high ground agd Houston Oil and Fam ous Players, which have been under pressure lately, made brisk recovery. Early selling was most effective in the high priced specialties such as L. s. Cast Iron Pipe, Case Threshing Machine, and Commercial Solvents B. Rails received fairly good sup port, Union Pacific climbing to new peak price. Foreign exchanges opened steady, with demand sterling quoted around s4.S5 IS and French francs around 3.91.
