WASHINGTON, June 1i.--Rein- troduction of bills to dispose of the Governments $127,O0o000 war time property at Muscle Shoals, Ala, has brought before Congress the details of an unsuspected ni- trogen situation in this country.
 Last year private industry pro- duced 50 per cen. of Ill the nitro gen taad iy.s.ssaa Unitclss ss..atcs. This year, it is estimated, it will pro- duce 65 per cent; next year, 80 per cent, and by 1892 erase the actual necessity of importing any nitro- gen at all.
 More nitrogen was used in 1928 than at any time in history-7,- I934, 900 tons. By current calcula- tion American nitrate plants are capable Of producing 10,000,00o tons annually without extra effort.
 To increase further domestic pro- duction of nitrogen, S60000,000 plant soon is to be erected at Mon roe, La, by the famous I. G. Far beninudistrie Aktiengesellschaft of Frankfort, Germany, the forerun- ner of all inorganic nitrogen pro- ductior.
 A group of banks headed by the National City Bank of New York already has acquired $30000,000 of capital for the new concern. On it's Board of Directors will be Wal ter Teagle, President of the Stand ard Oil Company of New Jersey; Edsel Ford, President of the Ford Motor Company; Charles E. Nit chell, Chairman of the National City Bank, and Paul Warburg, Chairman of the International Ac- ceptance Bank.
 This year the production of in- organic nitrogen in the United States will amount to about 275,000 tons, or more than six times the quantity hoped for at Muse e Shoals when Congress authorized the plants 13 years ago to supply

STOCKS STILL UNDER

q Seven Months.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, September 14.-Dur.
ing the first seven months Of the cur
rent year almost 60 per cent of the
stocks listed on the principal exchanges
of the country declined in market value,
according to Gage p. Wright, president
Of the Business Economic Digest. This
Is contrary to the prevailing impression
that the bull market Of the past month
or more had established stocks at a
higher price level than existed at the
beginning of the year.
/, On the New York Stock Exchange
alone. the survey indicates. only SO per
cent of the listed stocks appreciated in
value, while So per cent remained sta
tionary. The increasing POPULARITY of
common stocks as a conservative form
of investment is seen in the fact that
although many of the preferred issues
on the New York Stock Exchange carry
convertible features, larger percentage
OF advances occurred among the COM
mon stocks.
Another interesting conclusion of the
survey Is that the much-neglected rail
group exhibited relatively better show
ing than the popular industrials.

An attempt to round up the wild descendants of a herd of 25O cattle, landed on Chiri- koff Island, off the southwest ern end of Kodiak Island many years ago. will be made by number of Montana cow boys this spring, under the di- rection of Charles Frye, Se- attle packer, who had the an- imals put on the island as an experiment. Mir. Frye believes that there are herds of cattle on the island now as there is much grass there upon which to feed. He intends to bring the bulls back to the States for marketing. Much difficulty in rounding up the bulls is ex- pected by Mir. Frye because of their wildness and the rocky shore of the island, but the Montana cowboys are believed to be capable of performing the task.

 Jules Marion, one of the north's most widely known old timers twas claimed by death recently in Seattle.
 Marion was a mail carrier along the Yukon river for many years and his name was familiar one among early day residents of the territory.
 Four of the finest wolf pelts to be seen in Juneau in many years were recently exhibited by Charles Goldstein, fur-deal- CT. Three were blacks and one gray pelt, the average length of pelt for the lot being slight ly more than seven feet. One of the blacks measured eight feet from tip to tip, which is said to be a record for this dis trict. Another was seven feet and nine inches long. The pelts were well-furred and prime.
 Against a deficit of $151,78s in 1927 to a net profit of $751; 106 in 1928 was announced re- gently by the executive offices of the Alaska Juneau Com pany. This is the best showing made in several years and the report indicates that the out look for the future of the prop erty is bright.
 As a result of the better con- ditions at the mine the stock has advanced considerably during recent months.
 The Cordova Chamber of Commerce has given its en- dorsement to a plan to reopen the salmon hatcheries of Alas ka and it is expected that Rep resentative-elect Frank H. Eos ter, of the Copper river dis trict, will present the plan to the territorial legislature dur ing the coming session, with 8 strong plea for funds to carry on the work which a previous legislature did not consider sufficiently worthwhile to justify continuance.

Scarcely broken. but badly bent,
the high powered Spudder machine
Iiuaped out of Dallas last night alter
three highly distressing afternoons
in the Steer sanctum. The club
that was supposed to have been
geared for the second half crown
resembled nothing so much as a
bush league outfit in dropping three
straight to the nine which may OPP
pose IL in the play-off.
Little surceass was seen for the
slumping Gallowayites today. They
found themselves at Buffalo stadi-
um in Houston, which was some
thing like hopping from a skillet
into the fire. Their lead SlaSned
from six games TO two and a half
since they left home Saturday night
the Spuds faced the prospect OF
having it erased entirely unless they
do better the n. & three days than
the last three.
The crushing manner in which
the mavericks lathered the Oilers
in the series just closed possibly is
filled with potent. 1t not only
transformed the Texas league race
from a runaway 10 a tightly bunch
ed field, but definitely established
the fact that the Steers Will not
be pushovers in the five-game saw

counter.
Sergeant GeorSe Connally took up
where Whitley Glazner and Tic Fra
sier had left off the two previous
afternoons in setting the leaders
down, 8 to 2, in the series final. In
limiting the Spuds to four hits he
set their bingle total for the three
days at IL safeties. Up to the sew
enth round, when the visitors scored
both their runs, he did not allow a
blow.
The Spud debacle apparently has
spurred the Bluffs. FIR the second
straight afternoon Bailey's men
swept a double In with the Export
ers, 4 to 3. and 4 to 2. In order to
lick Denny Burns in the first the
Bisons had TO scrap through 10 in
nings, scoring one run in each OF
the last four frames to nose oil the
Shipper ace. Flint Rhem had the
invaders we'll in hand in the night
cap while his mates bunch~d their
hits off Grimm.
