Bp United Press
NEW YORK, April 28.-Vslues
melted away millions of dollars to-
day in the Stock Exchange in the
most severe selling wave this year.
Leading industrials, rails, utilities
and special issues bore the brunt OF
the reaction.
Thousands of shares of stocks
were thrown on the market for what
they would bring and trading vol
ume was only slightly under the
pace Of Friday, the last full ses-
sion.
Today's reaction was brought on
primarily by the poor earnings re-
ports coming to light for the first
quarter of the year. The railroad
showing was particularly bad, the
first forty-six class I roads to re-
port showing a decline of 1875 per
cent in earning for March, as COM
pared with March, 1929.
lnduSTr1alS weak
For a time the oil group was car
ried sharply higher, the leaders
making new high records for the
year or longer. Toward. the close,
however, selling spread to the Pc
troleum shares and they reacted for
the most part below the previous
closing levels.
In the industrial list losses were
especially heavy. United States Steel
broke to new low on the reaction
around 1876, compared with the pre-
vious close of 1873 and the high for
the year Of 1897, made on April q.
American Telephone was another
weak spot, declining to around 247,
compared with the previous close
Of 2515s. Westinghouse Electric
was hammered down to around 1876,
against the last price Saturday Of
1884. Breaks ranging from to
more than points were made by
Johns Manville, j. I. Case, Allied
Chemical, Union Carbide, Columbia
IOA1CA eNA
Electric, American Can, Radio Cor
poration, Eastman Kodak, Ameri-
can and Foreign Power, American
Water Works, Consolidated Gas and
Public Service.
Call Money Tight
Railroad shares made their worst
showing of the year with the high
est grade issues dropping l to more
than points. Southern Railway
made new low for the year at
11OM, off d, while Atchison and New
York Central lost more than 4
points each. Pennsylvania and Mis-
souri, Texas also were un-
der pressure.
Aviation shares moved lower late
in the day after early strength.
Credit frightened slightly. Call
money renewed at 4 per cent and
held there all day, against a renewal
of 4 and reduction to 81 per cent
in most sessions last week. Some
concession was made in the outside
market, and call money on the ex-
change was in lighter demand as a
result of the selling by small stock
holders.

New Haven, Aug. 25 UP) - Friends of Dr. Wilbur L. Cross to- day predicted clear sailing for his gubernatorial boom at the New London democratic state convention next month as result of withdrawal from the race of two prominently mentioned contenders.
 In a statement saying At present it would appear that the leaders have selected an estimable gentle man" former Congressman Patrick B. O'Sullivan of Orange last night declared he had not entered in any race for the nomination for gov ernor. Former Mayor William F. Thoms issued a similar statement in Waterbury, but he declined to comment on the fitness of the for mer Yale graduate school dean.
 Two candidates for the nomina- ris, the perennial candidate, and Burton E. Mansfield. both of New Haven. Neither has sought the nomination actively, however.
 Colonel Norris G. Osborn. editor of the New Haven Journal-Courier. is expected to make Dean Cross nominating speech, according "a David J. Mccoy, democratic town chairman Of New Haven.

AIRCRAFT STIMULATION

The object of aircraft races and competitions is to stimulate air craft production and civil aviation They are not put on merely to pro- vide a show for the public or to give them something interesting 10 read about in the papers. There IS a utilitarian purpose behind these en- deavors and experience has shown that whenever interest in aircraft is stimulated through such efforts the effect upon the aircraft industry Is considerable,
 The airplane business, so far as the transportation of passengers is concerned. seems to be one Of the few indutries in the United States which has shown q steady increase during the first half of 193o. Indeed. the total of passengers carried by airplanes the first half Of 193o has been more than double the number of passengers carried during the same period in 1929 Most Of the im- portant operating companles report increases in passenger travel up to more than 100 per cent over last year
 There are also 96 more alrports and landing fields than were in eXis- tance last year, the total number of such ports and fields being 1657.
 Airplane production this year, however, has failed 10 keep pace with the increased use of airplanes. The business of manufacturing air planes enjoyed a considerable boom during 1928 and 1929, which 193o will have difficulty in maintaining despite the increased use Of air planes by passengers this year. This may not ue surprising, however, in view O he fact that the life Of the ordinary airplane is not short, as some folks ma zine. l. can be used for years before superseded by new CT models The life of an alrplane such as is used in transport work, IS from three 10 four years, and the life of an airplane engine is consid- era bly less. But new engines can al- ways be placed ln airplanes.
 The number of airplanes manutac- tured during 1929 was 5,1So. So far i this year approximately 15oo have 1 been made. This IS q substantial de- ! crease. But the more than 5000 made last year and the more than 4.ooo made in 1925 are still mostly { n service this year, and II is these which are putting up the new rec ords ln the carrying of passengers.
 T. means. too. that public conf- { dence in the safety of the airplanc l has increased.

From his distance and necessarily belng uninstructed on every detail ot the disagreement that has arisen, it appears that the proposed strike oe musicians which has necessitated he calling of of one or two pro- auctions at Parsons theater and the threat to close the house for the whole season IS an unfortunate af- fair. and one that has been precipi- lated hv the musicians under un- timely circumstances owing to the 1npassa that has arisen ln the world tnmed.s-eIy in front Of the foot lights.
