 The market displayed q firm tone Some of the leading obligations of railroads and public utilities were in demand and the few gains of any consequence were in these groups Speculative interest was of a nom inal character, which was reflected in the dullness of convertible issues. The foreign list was stable. In the absence of any new issues to add glamor to foreign dollar bonds. there has been little interest manifested in these issues by American investors, and the advances made by leading issues, such as French and Belgian bonds of late has been due largely to buying for foreign account.

preliminary meetings and discus sions with farm board and agricul- ture department officials. The gov- ernors as they went from their hotels to conferences saw umbrellas and rain coats.
 Storm Holds Legge Up
 By another paradox, the farm board was informed it's chairman, Alexander Legge, might be kept from the conference with President Hoover this afternoon because of rain and storm.
 Legge, flying here from the west was forced to take a train at Day. ton, Ohio. because of bad weather. He planned to take another plane at Altoona, Pa, but if storms still threatened he will continue by rail. In that event he would arrive too late for the conference which was set for 2:S0 p. m.
 The extension of credit to farmers in the dry sections to enable them to carry on operations and prepare for another crop year drew more atten- ton than any immediate action to relieve suffering.
 Leslie Asks for Money
 Governor Leslie of Indiana sound ed the alarm on the crisis confront ing the farmers. He made no pro- position, awaiting the outline of a program by the president, but he said it is money we need and must have"
 The farmers for the most part have nothing left to put up even as security for loan," the Indiana republican stated, and We must have money if he is going to try and carry on again next year.
 There were indications President Hoover was going to make some comment on this subject to the con- ference. He has been busy seeking program of cooperation between the governments intermediate credit system and the strong banks of the nation which would permit work ing out of some credit system for the stricken farmers.
 Paul Bestor, federal farm loan bureau commissioner, was called 10 the White House for talk on available credit facilities. None of the governors called at the White House in the forenoon.
 Price Action Unlikely
 Reports the government was pre- pairing to move against those per sons who might boost prices on ac- count of the drought were discount ed in official quarters. It was said no authority existed for the gov ernment to act in price matters un- less there was some violation of the antitrust law.
 Governor Hammill of Iowa was one of the few to bring with him an optimistic note. He said recent rains in Iowa had improved condi- tions notceably and he believed the corn crop would be 70 per cent of normal at the worst.
 Governor Conley of West Virginia said 55 counties in his state had suffered directly or indirectly" from the drought but added West Virginia was sound economically. insus- trially and financially
 Conley said that rain which had fallen in the last A hours would have a beneficial effect on the fruit crop but might be too late to save fhe corn croO in some counties.
