ARMS FARLEY
BEGINS MONDAY
League of Nations Hopes
World Wide Agreement
May Be Reached

GENEVA, April 13.-P-Mem-
bers of the preparatory disarma-
ment commission of the league of
nations will begin Monday work
which they hope will pave the way
for a worldwide disarmament
agreement.
Nations concerned in the COM
missions laborS have built an i'm
posing background OF fact and ru-
NOR for the start. Yet the atmos-
phere is n of pessimism, with a
general feeling that the convoca-
ton is months, perhaps a year to a
year and a half, too early for the
hoped for results to be achieved.
In the pre-conference converse
tons the topic most discussed has
been what Hugh S. Gibson, United
States ambassador to Belgium, and
American delegate, will say. There
is a persistent rumor that he brings
with him a definite suggestion from
President Hoover's embodylng the
new administrations attitude to-
ward another disarmament confer
ence. What are regarded as quail
fled denials from Washington that
he has such a message have not dis
sipated the feeling he may have
much to do with the outcome OF the
meeting.
Three main questions present
themselves for discussion by the
commission. the naval problem re-
garded as the most important, the
limitation of trained reserves, and
reduction of stocks of war materials.

TRADE Dull IN
STOCK MARKET
Prices Irregular But In.
dustrials Lose Under
Weekend Selling
BY STANLEY w. PRENOSIL
Associated Press Financial Editor

NEW YORK, April 13.-(P-Ex-
treme dizziness characterized today's
brief session OF the stock market.
Price movements were extremely ir-
regular, but many of the leading
industrial issues lost ground on
heavy weekend profit taking.
Heaviness of some of the popular
industrials was attributed to liqui-
dation by large operators who had
bought those stocks for a turn ear
lier in the week.
Further selling came into the
copper shares as a result of the re-
cent downward readjustment Of red
metal prices. Whereas nearly all
of the leading coppers were max
ing new high records a few weeks
ago, when copper prices ran up to
"a cents a pound, Cerro De Pasco
today sank to a new low level for
the year, and most of the others
sold 10 to nearly IS points below
the years highs.
Despite the fact that stockholders
of the United States Steel Corpora
ton are expected to receive valu-
able rights" in connection with
the new stock offering expected
next week, the stock was freely sold
today by traders who acted on the
theory the market already had dis
counted the good news.
Sharp recessions took place in a
few high priced issues such as
American Express, Commercial Sol
vents. Wright Aeronautical, West
inghouse Electric, Union Carbide
and international Telephone.
Quiet accumulation continued,
however, in a wide assortment Of
s~pecialties. Motor products was
marked UP nearly six points above
last nights close and Stromberg
Carburetor crossed SO to a new high
record. Oppenheim Collins and
Hershey Chocolate common and
preferred sold also at new peak
prices. Total sales Appropriated
100000 shares.

evacuated Juarez two days after the
major Chihuahua army had left.
Rumors were prevalent that Es-

nying a higher fare. Indications are
that the appeal win be filed next week.
