AUTO SALES GAIN
IS FORECAST SOON
Leading Manufacturers Are
Preparing for Better
Market in 1881.
BY DAVID J. WlLKIE,
Associated Press StaH Writer.

DETROIT, September 25.-Declaring
mat huge backlog of deferred motor
safes Is steadily accommodating the Mich
isan manufacturer a. Financial Record
IN ltS current issue, says that leading
manufacturers already are beginning to
lay plsns for better-than-average mar
ket in 1881.
The market for automobiles, it says.
mas become sufficiently stabilized over a
period OF years to indicate a normal de-
mana Tor upwards of 100000 vehicles
annually. If, as now seems likely. the
output this year goes 10 a total of only
4,OO0.0 900 or less, it is evident the normal
requirements of the market have not
oeen taken care of, and are setting IN
backlog which should make its appear
ance with better conditions in 1881
Elaoorating this prognosie, the period
ical says:
Demands for service and rehlvena-
ton OF cars of ancient vintage renorted
from all sections Of the country coupled
with sales persistence experienced by the
safes FORCES OF the industry, reveal that
tens OF thousands of wornout cars that
ordinarily would have been traded in
during the last year, are being continued
IN use by their owners until the business
uncertainty is erased
Inc replacement demands of the in
uuoCry are ever growing and when held
IN aheyance as in the present situation
only mean piling up Of potential bust
ness which must be taken care Of sooner
or later"
Authoritative estimates of the total
production of passenger cars and trucks
Ior 1880 range between $500 600 and
100000 units. Taking into considera-
ton all the predictions OF gradual re-
taxation OF sales resistance and the COM
ing OF orders for long deferred replace
ments, several automobile executives are
predicting a total output in 1881 of
o,OOO,OO0 units or more. The 1929 all
time record was 1921, 709 for the United
States and Canada.

FOREIGN BOND LIST
IS AGAIN HIGHER
German Government 0bIiua-
tons Continue Advance.
Others Also Improve.
BY F. III. RICHARDSON.

Special Dispatch to The Star
NEW YORK, September 25.-Though
attention was diverted from it by the
boiling condition of New York City
traction securities, the most significant
feature on the bond market today was
the impressive recovery made by foreign
dollar bonds, particularly those of
Germany.
The heavily traded German govern
ment 5l2s, though their gain today was
not wide, are now selling more than 3
points above their recent low. Similar
ly the reparations rs made a consistent
climb, while such credits as German
Central Bank IS jumped or more
points.
Money was unchanged. Volume, ow-
ing to the activity in fractions, was
considerably greater and at a new high
for the current market, or since March.
Foreign issues that were heavily
bought and made advances were
United Kingdom 51zs, at a new high
for the current movement Greek IS,
Austrian rs, Serbian rs, Toxic 512s and
long list Of South Americans.
Trading in foreigns, which totaled
close to 100000 on the New York
Stock Exchange on Wednesday, passed
well above that mark today.
In the New York City traction group
the buying was based on the election
OF four new directors to the board of
the marlborough Rapid Transit Co.
These four all favor the plan of COM
bining the traction systems under the
city and the market now anticipates
an early agreement on prices for the
Interborough and Brooklyn Manhattan
transit systems. Since all fractions
underground, elevated and surface-are
expected to benefit, all these securities
were affected. The conservative Brook
lyn-Manhattan 6S went up point.
PETERBOROUGH refunding SIS gained ~
points to a new high. Third Avenue
Railroad As and the adjustments of the
same company made smaller advances,
also to new highs Manhattan Railway
Is were up 8 points and at new 1880
peak. Nassau Electric As, ordinarily in
active, were marked up point. Trad
ing in all these issues was the heaviest
seen in months.
The rest of the domestic list was
marked by strength. In the prime
group issues like New York Central Is,
Northern Pacific Is, Great Northern rs,
Inland Steel AIS, American Telephone
5las, Standard Oil of New York AIS
Duquesne Light AIS. Philadelphia Co
IS, Columbia Gas IS, Laclede Gas G 512 S
| and Utah Power & Light SIS all made
advances, some of them to new tops for
the movement. United States Govern
ment obligations were active and close
to their best prices.
Convertibles were generally ragged,
influenced by the cratic market for
stocks. Second-grade obligations of the
carriers and the Semi-speculative group
Of industrials were quiet. Oil company
bonds failed to reflect the early weak
ness in their common stocks
A total of nearly $50, 900 of new
bonds today was readily absorbed.

Of communion cups.
Sweeney has taken to Richmond a
report on the stolen communion cups
as well as a copy of the finger prints
and palm prints found on Miss Baker
automobile, which will be checked with
those of Frank. Little Importance was
attached to the former convict until the
authorities at Richmond wired InSpec-

Detective Bureau, that something ap-
peared to be wrong" with the man and
that he knew something about some
thing" that happened in or near Wash
ington.
Before Cloth and Kelly renewed the
questioning of the two colored men in
the Arlington jail, they made another
examination of the sewer on the Arling-
ton experimental farm in an effort to
establish definitely whether it had been
searched prior to the finding of Miss
Bakers clothing, the stolen jewelry and
other articles. Deputy Sheriff Wood
ward of Arlington County positively
identified the sewer as the one he had
looked into Tuesday and found it to
be empty. His Identification left no
doubt in the minds of the investigators
that the articles found in the sewer Fri
day had been placed there after Tues
day, thus strengthening the theory that
an automobile thief may know some
thing about the crime.
The mystery over the gray topcoat
and gold watch which figured promi-
nently as evidence in the investigation
of the murder was definitely cleared up
today when Charles Quertermous of
Alexandria, Va, and Alonzo Lloyd of

Similar Conditions Exist in Three

NEW YORK, April 30. - The heavy
loss of life in the fire at the Ohio State
Prison at Columbus was attributed yes
terday By Charles D. Osborne, presi-
dent of the National Society of Penal
Information, Inc, to "the failure of
the State to properly remedy bad con-
ditions."
These conditions he listed as over
crowding. inadequate, poorly construct
ed and non-fireproof buildings; idleness
and low pay.
1.-THE terrible catastrophe at the Ohio
State Prison." said Mr.. Osborne, who
also Is mayor of Auburn, N. Y, calls
attention to the fact that there are a
large number of prison plants through
out the country. especially at the Mis-
souri, State Prison, including road
camps, bunk houses at farms and jails,
which are veritable fire traps.
1.-THE dangers from fires are intensi-
fed in many of these plants because Of
gross overcrowding.
This tragedy finally should awaken
Ohio to the necessity Of a constructive
program and warn other States that
there is grave danger of similar TRACE
dies in overcrowded prisons.
Periodic and systematic fire drills
for either officers or inmates are almost
unheard of in civil prisons"
William B. Cox, secretary Of the So
ciety, said conditions similar to those
preceding the Ohio Penitentiary fire
exist in the penitentiaries in Jefferson
City, Mo-; Charleston, Mass, and Au-
burn, N. Y.

RELATIVES CLAIM
PRISON FIRE DEAD
Scores of Weeping KinfoIk

BY the Associated Press.
COLUMBUS, Ohio, April 23.-They
came to claim their dead today-the
widows, mothers. fathers, brothers and
sisters of the 318 convicts who lost
their lives in the Ohio Penitentiary
disaster.
Timidly and tearfully they formed in
mass against the bars of the Office
gate of the big prison where smoke
snuffed out the lives of their loved ones.
Inside, at little table. sat "trusty,
pencil in hand and reference book be-
fore him to pass them beyond the outer
gate and into the custody Of Miss
Amanda Thomas, daughter of the
warden, and Dan Bono, chief record
clerk.
AS occasional f1ashlight pictures were
taken the mourners blinked, dazed and
startled that the public should so in
trude upon their grief.
Scores Stand Weeping.
Among the scores of kinfolks to
Ohio's prison dead stood women, weep
ing. Around them the more composed
members of the crowd had drawn in
visible circles-allowing them in a
small degree to be alone in their grief.
Half abashed as he entered the door
to present his claims, stood a father,
not long from the old country, who
seemed not quite to comprehend it all
There the doll-like face of young girl
was wet with weeping.
Twelve long rows of caSkets rested on
tables today in the temporary morgue.
Soldiers stood at attention at the end
of the long rows. Each caSket stood
open, and at the foot of each rested a
floral piece, remembrance of the State
of Ohio.
None Were Shot, Weir Says.
Rumors that some of the dead had
committed suicide or were shot to death
by guards during the turmoil emphati-
cally were denied today by Capt. c. B.
Weir, Regular Army reserve officer, a
director at the morgue. He said not one
of the bodies showed evidence of a shot
or suicide.
Claimants of bodies we're to be rec

LONDON. April % (P.-Comparison
with the Geneva Conference of 1927 and
