Stock Prices Begin Upward Swing After Early lrregularity Period;
 Industrials, Public Utilities Lead
J. I. Case Scars 19H Points to 261, Or More Than Double Low Established
 in Break Last Fall - Others Make Fair Gains.

New York, March P-The stock market turned upward after an early period of irrcgularity today when strong buying support dcvel- oped in q rather wide assortment Of industrals and public utilities. Early declines of 1 to nearly points ill the active shares were nearly oblit- eratcd by carly afternoon, when q
 long list of issues were selling 1 Co nearly points above yesterdays $
 final quarter. J. l. Case was the spectacular individual feature, soar ing 19 l-i points to 2Gl, or moro than double the low price establish cd in the break last fall. The stock sold as high as lo9 last year. Commodity Prices Blamed
 Early selling was inspired largely by the renewed weakness Of the commodity markets, May cotton breaking below l3 cents q pound to within q few points of the record low established last week while
 wheat futures dropped about cents q bushel before the decline was checked by short covering. Call money held steady at 1 per
 cent but the supply of funds was
 so plentiful that a shading of the rate in the outside market was eX- pectcd. The time money and con-
 merclal paper markets were quiet, with rates unchanged.
 While several of the large com mission houses continued 10 urge
 caution in the making of new com nltments, the strong resistance
 shown by many stocks to selling
 pressure encouraged d resumption of pool operations. Declaration of
 tho regular dividend on kcnnecott
 copper was believed to foreshadow similar action by other leading pro- ducers, and Quietcd fears that the recent curtailment of operations
 would result in lower dividend pay ments. The annual dividends on United Light & Power class A and class B stocks were increased from 60 cents to $l.
 B. & NJ. Rallies Today Boston & Maine, which dropped points last week on the tradition
 al selling on the good news" fol- lowing the resumption of dividends,
 rallied 1-2 points. Worthington Pump and Advance Rumcly pre- fcrred were each marked up moro than points.

Low PAY CITED
IN AIR CORPS
Service Losing Best Army
Officers, Dawson Says.
BIZ United Press

BIZ United Press
WASHINGTON, Nov. 2S.-Correc-
ton of inequalities in air corps pro-
motion and pay, augmentation OF
the army air fleet, and settlement
of the long-standing dispute be-
tween the army and navy over aerial
coast defense, were urged by Trubie
Dawson, assistant war secretary, to-
day in his annual report.
He pictured a satisfactory year OF
progress in air corps development.
Referring to the air corps pro
motion problem" Dawson said:
Sluggish promotion raises havoc
with the morale of the air corps per-
sonnet; is responsible for the reSig-
nation OF valuable officers whose
services the government can i'll af-
ford to lose; places burdens OF re-
sponsibility upon Junior officers en-
tirely out Of proportion with their
grades, and finally tends to under
mine the efficiency of the entire
service by paving the way for a
spirit of hopelessness which is bound
to develop apathy"
Congress, in it's f1ve-year military
aviation program of 1926 provided
that within half-decade the army
should have 1900 "serviceable air
planes" Last June there were only
1915.

HENLEY CASE
TO Be DELAYED
Preliminary Hearing to Wait
at Least a Week.

Preliminary hearings in the sepa-
ration action Of Mrs. Ethel Williams
Henley against Manford G, Henley,
acknowledgement of Indiana, will
nit come before circuit court for at
least week.
This was decided today by Ed
ward G. Little, counsel for Mrs.
Henley.
Attorneys for Henley continued
their reticent attitude today, al
though it was known that they had
been interviewing numerous wit
nesSes in the case.
Possibility that Henley will not
be able to raise the issue of mar
riage-which he strenuously denies
at the time for the preliminary
hearing for an allowance for her
support seemed likely.
In the opinion of attorneys, the
argument for an allowance will not
include an examination on the mer-
it's of the case.
In this event, the question of
whether Henley actually married
Mrs. Williams at Toledo, o., Sept.
II, 1929, will not be settled until the
final trial of the suit.
