MARKET UPSET
BY HEAVY
SELLING
Buying Support Fails to Hold
Up Under 0utpouring of Oils,
COppers and SpeCiaIties
Nv w. q. COUSINS

NEW YORK, Dec. II Q.NSo.
While buying support for the
industrial stocks and the utilities
was furnished in good volume to-
day, the market was again unset
tied in the first hour by o heavy
outpouring Of the oils, coppers
and Specialties.
The standard oils were swept
into the lowest level in five years
or more by the renewal OF persis-
tent selling, Standard Of New
York finally breaking under 20
and Standard Of New Jersey to
44N. /: s.
Oils are Low
The independent oils, including
Texas Corporation, Sinclair, Barns
dali and Pure Oil settled down to
the lowest prices Of the year. Ana
conda was again the weak spot
in the coppers. falling off to
25h for q loss Of l point.
Dividend-paying rails held o
little better than in the last two
days. Though Chesapeake and
Ohio sold off about two points at
80. U. s. steel, General Electric
and American Can were able to
stem the tide in the first hour,
but were swept off by persistent
selling in the second.
Buying Il Low
Wall Street heard that further
necessitous selling Of the best
grade stocks by the investment
trusts, banks and over-extended
traders was responsible for the
uninterrupted flow Of stocks into
the market. which continued re-
gardless Of business conditions.
As yet, investment buying is not
sufficient to offset selling Of this
nature, but selling climaxes"
have been seen by a number Of
the market experts.

Rally Due Soon

There is hardly a doubt in the
hainds of usually well-posted
market students but that stocks
are being gradually worked down
Do a position where q rally OF
substantial proportions is i'm
minent. With the exception OF
sninor technical upturns which
have proven Of short duration,
the market has not enjoyed a
single session of rising prices in
nome weeks. The rail averages
have now shown a decline for the
twelfth consecutive day, which Is
somewhat of a record even in
periods of protracted bear trends.
Further Drop?
Despite the fact that yester-
days turnover might be con-
eidered Of climax proportions, the
possibility Of further decline,
sven from these levels, must not
be overlooked. The steady and
prolonged deflation in values will
probably necessitate additional
forced liquidation today, and
Aggressive buying support has
not yet made its appearance to
gamble on the speculative op-
6ortunities at these levels.
Quarters, however, who have
turned definitely bullish after a
lengthy sidelines stand point out
even making full allowance for
Ill unfavorable facts existing, the
stock market at present is not
truly reflecting the conditions OF
the country. Instead of industries
being bankrupt, all the high
grade ones have large equities
and cash reserves and are re-
organizing their operating methods
Ia such a way as to place them
on a Sounder and more efficient
basis than ever before.
Copper Outlook Bad
The current unsettlement In
taae copper group, while based in
part upon failure of the recent
stabflization program, has also
been due to developments with
the industry itself, tending to in
dicate the business Is steadily
entering an era Of comparatively
low prices, with a few low cost
producers dominating the market.
The rich copper deposits in
Africa which are expected to be
IN an advanced stage of develop
ment within two years, and the
prospect Of additional low cost
copper from Canada, together
with metal from some low cost
mines in operation in the United
States and South America, form
the basis chiefly for the belief
that the day Of low cost copper
by mass production is not far
distant. -.
A survey of the present valua-
tons of stocks on the New York
stock Exchange discloSeS that
more than 80 per cent of the
listed issues are now selling be-
low their book values, and that
many stocks, particularly in the
oil and ~ailroad groups, are sell
ing at from one tenth to one half
of book value. United States
Steel, for example, is quoted at
around 14O, as against q book
value of $204.16.

FINDING OF OASIS
NOW POSSIBILITY
Expedition to Lybian Desert
NarroWs Area for "LoSt"
City of Zarzura.

ny the Associated Press.

ny the Associated Press.
CAIRO, December 26.-Discovery Of
o lost" oasis, provided it exists at
all, has come within the realm of
possibility through the findings of an
expedition headed by Maj. Bagnolds,
which has returned from the Lybian
Desert.
Sir Ahmed HaSsanein Bey in 1923
discovered Arkenu and Owenat, till
then only known to the natives and
never before located.
Tradition has it, however, that there
still is third oasis, "zarZura," round
which a veritable circle of legends
clusters.
An Arabic manuscript of the If
tenth century, entitled 1.-THE Book of
the Lost Pearls" relates: This city
of zarzura is as white as a dove and
on its gate a bird is carved. With
your hand place the key into the
beak of the dove, then open the c1ty's
treasures and the King and Queen
asleep in their palace. Do not go near
them, but gather up the treasures"
In the past century European ex-
plorers spoke about the existence OF
ZarzIra, based on statements of Arabs,
but within the past few years several
of them began to think it legend.
Sir Ahmed HaSsanein Bey himself, as
well as DR.. Bell, the director of desert
surveys in Egypt, incline toward the
latter view, but they are prepared to
credit the existence of GASES in the
Lybian Desert, to which no Europeans
have yet penetrated.
Mai. Bagnolds expedition has now
achieved results tending to narrow
down the area in which Zarzura Is TO
be sought

ALMSSEEKER FALLS
DEAD IN RESTAURANT
Unidentified Man Succumbs After

bites of the food when 1t was set be-
fore him, suddenly rose to his feet, took
a few steps and then fell to the moor
