B0RAH MAKES
APPEAL TO PAY
BACK SINCLAIR
BY PAUL r. MALLON
(United Press Staff Correspondent

WASHINGTON, March 16.- A
Dental horizon today when Senator
William f. Borah went over the
heads Of Republican party leaders
and made a direct appeal to the
rank and file to pay back Harry j..
Sinclair's 100000 campaign contri-
button.
Letters and kilograms with pledg-
es and money poured into Borah 8
office as the result of his single

what he calls its "obligation Of

demanded that the party disregard
its wavering leaders and set itself
up as the champion Of honest and

He was hailed by ardent drys as
their candidate for nomination.

Ten days after Will Hays, former
chairman of the Republican nation
al committee, had admitted receiv-
ing a net contribution of 100000
from Sinclair, lessee of the Teapot
Dome naval reserves, Borah wrote
to William NJ. Butler, the present
chairman, and demanded that party
leaders take steps to repay Sinclair
Butler answered that the rcspon-
sibility for such a step was on
HAYS, who collected the oil money.
The publicity attending the cor
respondcnce brought Borah more
than $500 in unsolicited pledges
and contributions.
Unable to get action from Butler
and others, he decided last night to
set out himself to raise the money
and issued an appeal direct to Re

them in part and while their port
folioS will not be as satisfactory as
they were a few weeks ago, they will
show substantial gains over the end
of 1927. Not a few of the insurance
companies have made larger earnings
from securities than from underwrit-
tngS. There are instances where losses
in the matter have been oyerbalanced
by profits in the former.
The investment trusts, as q class.
have profited during 1928 more by the
appreciation In their securities than in
the direct income return on these Sc
curities. Statements for the first half
OF the year and those to be published
for the second half will show that
quite few Of the young trusts have
taken profits on their securities in
excesl of the amount of their regular
income from dividends and interest.
Part of this represents the appreciation
on securities purchased some time ago

as trading profits" the; latter being

NEW PRODUCE EXCHANGE
is OPENED FOR TRADING

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, December 19.-Mem-
berS of the New York Produce Ex-
change. accustomed to deal in grains
and oils, had learned their parts today
in the business fox which Wall Street
is famous, trading IN stocks and bonds,
in preparation for the opening Of their
EXCHANGES securities department.
With the opening of this department,
the Produce Exchang steps up along
side the New York Stock Exchange
and the New York Curb Market in the
business of making a market for Sc
curities. The Produce Exchange will
begin trading in $50 securities, not now
listed on either the Stock Exchange
or the Curb Market.
While the Produce Exchange has
taken up securities in order to make
market for stocks and bonds not
now listed on either of the older ex-
changes, the Unlisted Securities Deal
erS's Association; has announced that
it will continue to- function. While the
Produce Exchange plans to expand It's
list as rapidly as its new business can
be develoVed, the Unlisted Association
points out that its members handle
thousands of. securities, most Of which
are not traded in sufficient volume
to warrant their being listed on an
active market.
The opening Of the new. securities
market was awaited with keen interest
in Wall Street, as there has been con-
siderable division of opinion as to the
need of a third exchange.

WASTE PRODUCTS
BEING ELIMINATED
Science Finds Ways to Utilize
Lumber Discarded by
Paper Makers.
BY J. C. ROYLE.
Special Dispatch to The. Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, December 19-Within
an extremely short time, 1t is expected
that developments In the industry will
be made which will permit the use
of all lumber waste in the manufacture
of paper.
This will obviate the demolition of the
pulp wood tracts OF both the United
States and Canada. It also will change
materially the operation of lumber
mills in the Pacific Northwest and the
South and in the country along the
Canadian border. This announcement
was made by an internationally known
fuel engineer today.
Waste, slabs, butts, sawdust and other
products from the Transforming Of logs
into lumber now are used to large
degree for fuel to furnish power for
the lumber mills. Soon this material
will be too valuable Tor this use. Some
astute manufacturers of lumber already
are making preparations to install coal
burning plants, using pulverized coal
to a large extent.
On the Pacific coast this will mean
much to the coal producers Of Utah
In the South, the Alabama and Ken
lucky mines will profit. Millions of
cords of pulp wood will be saved. There
is small doubt of this, since there has
just been formed combination on the
Pacific coast which includes lumber
concerns, with over billion dollars
in assets. Think what an amount of
waste the production of millions of feet
of lumber entails and the additional
profits when 1t is turned into valu-
able by-product.
This particular development will mean
much to the South also, although the
waste in many of the 1ong-leaf pine
mills now is being used to produce
rosin and turpentine under a distil-
lation process.
Only, few days ago the first real
trial of news print paper made from
cornstalks was made. This process has
been known for long time. The prob
lem has been to make the process COM
mercially feasible. Few doubt that
this can be accomplished. The same
applies to paper made OF the. saw
grass growing in some sections OF the
South.
The trouble with these new processes
and chemical developments seems to be
that most of the recent ones have been
made in industries where there already
is an excess of production under ex-
isting conditions, so that the new proc
esses offer no material aid to the
industries in question:. The capacity
of the pulp wood paper mills now Is
far above consumption. demands, and
prices are low
The same applies to bituminous coal.
Coal can be turned into liquid fuel,
but there is such a volume of crude
petroleum on the market as to discour-
age any attempt to compete with it by
synthetic products. Coal can be turned
into synthetic rubber, but the volume
of rubber production is such that the
price is too low to attract large in
vestments in plants for synthetic pro-
duction.
There has been an extensive study
of new methods of producing sugar.
Sugar is being produced in quantities
from corn and this product is, in active
competition with cane and beet sugars.

first alignment of forces as high finance
and big business maneuver for lead
ership in the rapidly approaching COM
petitive phase Of airplane development.
The prospect of profit during the next
year. growing in the years to come, IS
the impelling motive for the consolida-
tionS. There are plumS to be pIucked
almost Immediately, contracts to carry
at least 100000 pounds of air mail
next year, S100,000,000 Of airplanes to
be manufactured during the coming IL
months, a rapidly growing express busi-
ness and an unknown and untapped
passenger traffic to be developed. This
NAV prove the richest harvest OF all.
To reach these fields the units now
shaping up take in just about all
branches Of fying-air mail, passenger
transport, manufacturing, field equip
n1ent and schools. There is recognition
that a heavy competitive period Is
looming, in which the strongest organ
izationS will survive. 1t is this which
impels leaders In the industry to cau-
ton investors against blind speculation
in aviation securities.
AS the situation shapes up at the
moment the four following groups are
outstanding:

This grouping has just been complet-
ed with $150,000000 of capital to be

WHEAT PRICES GAIN

Further Deliveries on December
Contracts Cause Recess

BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, December 19.-On ac-
count of the bullish aspect Of the United
States Government crop report, wheat
prices scored early gains today, but the
effect failed to last well. Further de-
liyeries of wheat on December contracts
here operated as something of a
fccunterbalance. Opening unchanged to
" higher, wheat afterWard receded to
below yesterdays finish. Corn, oats
and provisions were relatively easy, with
corn starting unchanged to ls off, and
subsequently undergoing slight gen.
eral sag.
Deliveries Of good-sized amounts Of
wheat on Chicago December contracts
led to liuuidating sales on the part of
holders. and did much to Offset the
bulliSh influence of reductions in Of
fetal estimates of domestic Winter
wheat acreage and condition. Besides,
comprehensive advices were at hand,
based on later information than the
Government summary and saying that
out of hundreds of reports less than a
dozen were unfavorable as to the Winter
crop outlook, and these exceptions were
from widely scattered parts. OF the
wheat belt.
Colder weather, likely to facilitate
the movement of the corn crop, tended
at times to ease the corn market. On
the other hand, receipts of corn in
Chicago today were small, 1872 cars, and
country offerings to arrive were light,
as well as being mostly at prices well
above the current level
Furthermore, leading European

NEW YORK, December 19.-General
recovery characterized trading on the
Curb Exchange today Utilities, motors,
mining issus, oils and industrial spe-
cialties all shared in the advance.
Interest naturally centered in the
trading in the new Ford Motor. Ltd,
shares, and the volume in this issue
was again enormous. The stock opened
on a block of $4,000 shares up / % to
97s and subsequently pushed through
10 to a new high. There was no doubt
that much of the demand was coming
from interests who had sold previously
on the idea that they were to obtain
their full allotments to subscriptions.
The best information was that the largest
individual subscriptions would not eX-
ceed 2I0 shares and that total allot-
ments to American investors would be
limited to approximately per cent of
the amount subscribed for.
Franklin Manufacturing shot forward
several points and there was better
demand generally for motor stocks
Public utilities were featured by a re-
newed demand for the prominent hold
ing company issues, notably Southeast
ern Power and Electric Bond 81 Share
securities. The sudden and heavy de-
mand for Hiram Walker d apparently
represented short covering operations.
Bohn Aluminium, after making a new
high. above Ill, lost more than the
early improvement. Alpha Portland
Cement moved upward several points to
its best and new high also was eS-
tabliShed in international Nickel new.
Niles Bement Pond opened down over
10 points, indicating that the stock had
previously gone ahead too fast in dis
counting expected benefits of gigantic
