STOCKS NERVOUS;
/. TREND DOWNWARD
Few Shares Make Progress
Upward, but Most Lose
on Profit taking.
BY GEORGE r. HUGHES.


NEW YORK, April 14.-Extreme
nervousness marked operations on the
Stock Exchange at the close OF the
week. The trend was downward. but
there was no wide open break. Heavy
selling persisted all through the session
and yet it was absorbed without large
concessions.
The wild half hour at the close on
the day before had evidently alarmed
many spectators, and they made haste
to take profits at the opening today.
They were urged to this course by
brokers who emphasized the rise in the
open market rate for bankers accept
ances, signifying as 1t did Tightening
up of money regardless OF the drop in
the charge for call funds.
General Motors Example.
The first indication of the worry that
existed was The opening in General
Motors The stock had closed yesterday
at 1983a after having made new high
for all time above 1919. The initial
transaction today was 10000 at 1914 to
1913, down over S points at the latter
price. This sharp decline brought
supporting orders in large volume and
the quotation rallied to points, but
still ruled below where 1t left off on
the day before.
Weakness In General Motors had an
immediate effect on the recent lead
ers. Consolidated Gas. General Electric
and Bethlehem Steel sold off sympa-
thetically. The turnover was heavy and
the fluctuations rapid and wide. Pool
operators were content TO keep their
favoriteS from too abrupt a decline.
For the most part they suspended oper-
ations for the rise Probably there was
some short selling. but it did not ap-
pear to be much of factor.
Few Move Upward.
A few stocks made progress against
the trend. The tobaccoS as a group
were higher under the leadership OF
Tobacco Products, Liggett 81 Myers "B"
and Congress Cigar Paramount
Famous established a new years high
early in the first hour. Some of the
independent motors were in fairly good
demand. The utilities. except for those
which had been bid up earlier in the
week. were steady.
On the other hand, Radio was weak.
as 1t has been most of the time re-
Gently, Allied Chemical was lower. Gem
eral Railway Signal was under pressure
and there was no aggressive demand
for the rails.
First hour sales were OIL 500. against
100000 Yesterday The tape ran Is
to 20 minutes behind. The pace in
creased in the second half of the Ses-
sion and aS 1t did SO many bf the early
losses were extended Pressure on Gem

CHICAGO. April IA F).-Outlets for

On account of uncertainty regarding
the future, there is little inclination
however, on the part of receivers TO

Buyers for consumptive needs likewise
are conservative. seeing little or no ad-

ments. Spectators in spot butter have
also been unable to see a profitable out

The Oriental bowed, then slipped
away. He went just like shadow.
He found a raincoat in the hall, and
in an instant he was out in the flood
of rain.
Hayward put on his own over

rain and the darkness swallowed
them both.
A window had been left just be-
side the fireplace, and through it we
could ordinarily see the garage.

window. Ahmad was evidently hav-

through the storm. 1t was a long
time before we saw an indication
that he had reached the garage.
Then we saw his auto lights flash
on.
We were barely able to make them

garage door was open and they were
shining directly toward us. OF

Nothing as bad as that South
ley answered. "Of course it means
a flood; but by no conceivable cir
cumstances can the waters reach
the top of the hill where this house
stands. But we'll be cut off from
civilization-for days. The water
will sweep all around the hill, flood
the railroad bed, and fill all the low
places-eight feet deep. We won't
be able to reach the heights across
the valley"
Hayward seemed to leap toward
him. He simply appeared to break
before our eyes. His voice rose
shrilly, and he shook his arm in
Southley's face.
"Then get me out tonightw he
screamed. Get me away from this
house while there's yet time"
"I'm afraid it is too late now,
Southley answered.
"Call a car for me at once

battle of two fears in his great face.

course the distance was far; and the
piercing rays could hardly penetrate
the wall of rain. The lightning had
entirely ceased. We couldn't hear
the roar of the engine at all. Then
we saw, quite plainly, the track of
the lights as the car sped about the
shoulder of the hill.
Perhaps, in all, the walk to the
garage and the starting of the ear
had taken four minutes. The walk
to the base of the hill, where the
postern path met the driveway, took
ordinarily two minutes. 1t was
straight downhill, and if Hayward
had walked swiftly at all, he would
certainly have two minutes to wait.
The car came slowly, and still we
could see the faint luster in the rain
that was its lights.

They curved on to the base of the
hill. Then Ernest uttered syllable
of exclamation. "He's driven past
the point he said.
Possibly Hayward has walked on
a few feet" suggested.
The car slowed up and stopped
for a single instant, then started
slowly on. 1t was hard to believe
that it halted long enough to peo-
NIT the portly form of Hayward to
enter. 1t looked to us as if Ahmad
were trying to throw the car-lights
onto the side of the road. Then. to
our vast amazement, we saw him
turn tround.
The car headed back. just as
slowly, and circled about to the
garage.

BRITAIN LIKELY
TO IGNORE u. S.
NAVY PROPOSAL
London Prefers to Let
Matter BroaChed by
Britten Die.
BY LYLE c. WILSON
UNITED Press staff Correspondent


WASHINGTON, Nov. 29.-Premier
Stanley Baldwin of Great Britain
will be advised to ignore Repre-
sentative Fred A. Britten'S proposal
for a naval limitations conference
between committees of the house
of representatives and the house of
commons should he ssk advice from
this government, the United Press
learned today.
On the other hand, President
Coolidge and the state department
are expected to ignore Britten's I'M
usual procedure, unless it is brought
officially to the administrations
attention. 1t is understood the adj
ministration would prefer to let the
proposal die without further discus
sion, and this is expected to hap
pen unless Britten or some one in
London revives the matter.
Etiquette of international rela-
tons, as interpreted here, would pre-
vent Premier Baldwin from reply
ing directly to Britten's cable, in
which he suggested that the two
committees meet after March 4 in
some Canadian city. But more than
etiquette was believed today to in
weigh against Britten in London.
British Against Nerve
From British point of view it
was said there would be against it
the fact that a meeting between
American and British committees
would place the latter in an unfa-
vorable position.
Instead of division between the
legislative and executive branches
of government such as there is in
the United States, these branches
are combined in England.
An official House of Commons
committee would represent both the
executive and legislative branches
of British government and its COM
mitments would represent commit
ments OF the British government.
Not Binding on Senate
But the House of Representatives
committee on naval affairs, which
Britten as chairman suggested
should meet the British, would rep
resent only one part of the legis-
lative branch of the United States
government and its commitments
would not in any sense bind either
the executive or the Senate.
The foregoing, it was pointed out,
would create an obvious inequality
of authority between the two COM
mittees and the result would be
that the American committee could
promise much, but guarantee little,
whereas the British committee pre-
sumably could bind its government
by its promises.

STORES WORK
MONTHS AHEAD
FOR CHRISTMAS
Preparations Are Started
Late in Summer for
Buying Stampede.

Although Christmas comes but
once a year, so far as the largest
part of Americas work-a-day world
is concerned, the season is over long
before Dec. Is arrives.
All the machinery necessary to
put on the large celebration which
takes place each year, in the United
States in particular and the world in
general, is operated far enough
ahead to insure that each group
shall have time to do its work and
that the products shall appear at
the right time to take their appro-
pirate part in the spectacle.
For Indianapolis stores, although
the selling rush continues up to the
last possible hour on Dec "a, the
seasonal time of Christmas comes
along in the fall, when the execu-
tives estimate the potential demand
for various articles and PLACE their
orders so as to have the goods on
hand by about the first of the
month.
Get Early Start
In many cases the first operation
may be the simple one of sprinkling
a few holly leaves and artificial
snow over articles that have been
1anguishing in windows and on
counters for months.
Even that operation, however, has
to be planned and executed well in
advance, to give the inspiration time
to ferment in the prospective Gus
toners minds.
For the manufacturers and whole
salers Christmas has to take place
some time in the summer, or even
before.
Waste No Time
The manufacturers, particularly,
must have time to order their raw
materials, get their statesmen out
over the country taking orders and
have their goods ready to ship far
enough ahead so that, even with
the three weeks or more often con-
Sumed i'll transporting freight, they
will arrive in plenty of time for
the season.
Clothing manufacturers often
work from two to six months ii
advance of their season, and the toy
manufacturers of the United States,
whose produce is almost a second
symbol of Christmas, hold their an
nual fair for dealers along in Febru-
airy or March.
