NEW YORK, December I7.-Airplane
issues held the center of speculative in
terest in today's curb market In a mar
/ ket that was otherwise subjected to con-
NSiderable irregularity because of the
desire to even up accounts, these stocks
stood out strong many soaring spec
taeularlv to new high records.
> The incentive for the demand was
furnished in the announcement over the
week end Of gigantic $l50,000,000 mer-
ger in the industry in which Boeing Air
& Transport and Pratt & Whitney Air
craft are to be the dominating factors.
The deal will be contaminated through
exchange of present stocks for those Of
the new corporation.
Boeing Air 81 Transport opened more
than points higher at 963s and SUBJ
sequently crossed 81. but later lost most
of the Improvement. Niles Bement
Pond, which controls Pratt & Whit
ney, opened on a block of 5000
shares at 201A. compared with last
weeks final of 1929, and later reached
2l2. E. w Bliss shot forward from
52ia TO so before profit taking carried
the price down sharply from its best.
Douglas Aircraft crossed 241a. up more
than a point. All these issues were at
new peak prices keystone Aircraft
shared in the improvement and others
OF the group were sympatietically af-
fected.
The oil stocks failed to be influenced
by the upward tendency of crude oil
price schedules, but no acute weakness
developed The mining issues were in
clined toward slightly lower levels

WHEAT is LOWER
ON EARLY TRADING
Market Says in Selling by Houses
With Northwest Con-
nections.
Rx the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
- CHICAGO, December 17.-Selling on
the part of houses with connections
Northwest led to an early downturn in
wheat prices today. On the other hand,
prevailing adverse weather for the corn
crop movement tended to strengthen
the corn market. Opening unchanged
to II up, wheat later underwent a gen.
eral decline. Corn started unchanged
TO ss higher and subsequently scored
a moderate advance all around. Oats
showed a downward slant. Provisions
held about steady.
Early indications of an increase of
the United States wheat visible supply
total gave some advantage much of
the time today to the selling side Of
the wheat market. Bears pointed out
that reductions instead of an increase
are usual at this time of year. Mean
while, bullish traders failed to make
much headway with talk that sudden
cold wave would menace a large por-
ton Of the domestic Winter wheat area
without snow protection.
Wheat on ocean passage showed
100000 bushels decrease today COM
pared with week ago. However, the
total was still considerably in excess
of the amount afioat at this time last
year. Furthermore, figures at hand
showed Canadian stocks of wheat con-
tinufng to increase, with the aggregate
at Fort William and Port Arthur nearly
double last years total

by the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, December 1.-THE cot
ton market opened steady at an adj
vance of points to a decline of l
point. A considerable volume of liquida-
ton was evident, particularly in March
contracts, but it was quite readily alb
sorbed around the initial prices, and the
market soon showed net advances of S
to points with January advancing to
20.15 and May to 20.12, or about to
8 points net higher.
There was probably some buying on
the relatively steady showing of the
Liverpool cables and talk of steadier
spot basis in the South
Private cables said that local and con-
tinental liquidation in Liverpool had
been absorbed by trade calling and
prices there did not fully meet the local
decline of Saturday. Manchester re-
ported well sustained demand for cot
ton cloths and said that yarn sales were
equal to production.

Mon Tue We'd Th1 Fri !.

Packard, International Nickel, Radio,
Victor and Greene Cananea, which have
long been leaders in the advance were
still the features last week. 1t is i'm
possible to say whether the advance was
due to an oversold short interest or to
really substantial buying based on the
proposed merger of the Radio and Vic
tor, or the reported bright prospects
for the other companies. 1t is difficult
to believe that really substantial buying
has begun yet, for the old line leaders
which must be used as the backbone
for any upswing have kept in the back
ground. While the average of leading
stocks shown on the chart rose toward
the end of the week, this was caused
by the more highly speculative stocks
rather than by a broad general rise
Question of Floating Supply.
Opinion is almost unanimous in Wall
Street that the market before the break
had overdiscounted the business future,
which is only another way of saying
that the market had advanced out of
all reason, since the opinion is widely
held that the business outlook is ex-
cellent. But whether or not the stock
market can be held down remains to
be seen. The public has had a real
taste of common stock ownership and
while enthusiasm had been chilled by
the recent decline, the situation to-
day is quite different from the past.
What will be the final effect of pri-
vate investors and investment trusts
taking millions of shares of stock out of
the market for safe keeping is yet to
be proved. A good sized floating sup
ply of a stock is essential in order to
maintained free interplay of specula-
tive force and to make manipulation
difficult. The wild gyrations of certain
stocks show that this reduction of the
floating supply has put many issues in
a position where operators are tempted
by the possibilities of price manipula-
ton. One can only condemn stock
manipulation based upon technical sit
uations rather than fundamental values
and one wonder if the Stock Exchange
may not run into some dificultise if
the floating supply of certain stocks
is allowed to get too low to allow a
free market.
Money Easier.
The money situation, which was used
as the excuse for. the break, eased some
what last week, according to the stand
ards by which easy money is measured
today. On Monday call loans renewed
at 8 per cent but they declined grad

Local Markets Move in Unison.

Stocks on the local exchanges
throughout the country have fluctuated
more widely during the past two weeks
than for months past. The break in
New York affected prices in all cities,
and last week when prices in New York
regained some of their losses, the local
market followed. ST. Louis, Pittsburgh,
Baltimore and Cleveland have regained
most of the ground lost, while San
Francisco, Philadelphia, Boston, Gin
cinnati and Chicago have followed the
course of prices in New York more
closely, regaining a smaller part of the
ground lost the week before. 1t Is in
teresting to observe that while many
of the local markets did not share in
the broad advance that has taken place
in New York since July, most of them
have suffered rather severe declines
within the past two weeks.

STOCK PRICES DROP
IN WAVE OF SELLING
List Reacts as Favorites
Yield to Heavy Liqui-
dalton.
BY GEORGE T. HUGHES.
Special Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, December 3.-Sharp
reaction characterized this mornings
stock market. Selling was heavy at
the opening and the list continued
under pressure, with only spasmodic
rallies. Breaks ran from 2 to 3 points
to 10 and more in recent speculative
leaders.
For the first time in long period
accumulated orders over the week end
were on the selling side. There was
nothing new in the outside situation
or in the market itself, but more con-
sideration of the increase in brokers
loans, the position of the Federal Re-
serve System, the current high charge
for call money and the suspicion that
there are more incidents like that of
last week in Canadian Marconi yet to
come brought a flood of liquidation,
under the weight of which the market
was unable to stand up.
Selling in Coppers.
It may have been also that some of
the selling was forced. Transactions in
certain stocks had that appearance.
Probably stop-losS orders were encoun-
tered, although these seemed to be off,
set in part at least by buying orders
was met after the selling had gone on
for a couple of hours and the list sta
bilized.
The copper stocks were especially
weak. A block of 10000 shares of
Greene Cananea came out at the OPEN
ing at las, down Is points: After this
there was a rally to around 150 Ken
necott dropped back nearly 8 points
Anaconda and Cerro de Pasco 4. The
outside interest in the coppers is large,
and these stocks proved sensitive to
selling.
Rail Stocks.
Railroad stocks sold off with the in
dustrials, with the notable exception of
Baltimore & Ohio. The latter stood out
strong in a weak market, indicating
there was some special reason back of
the buying. Canadian Pacific broke
