CURB ISSUES EASY

Gas Group Featured in Mod

BY JOHN A. CRoNE.

Mpecial Disps tch to The Star.
NEW YORK, September 1s.-Gas
issues, representing the natural and
manufactured branches of the industry
provided some of the widest swings In
today's moderately active and lower
Curb Exchange session.
Professionals, as usual, centered con-
siderable attention on the market lead
err, Electric Bond ~ Share, which
dropped more than 2 points. Cities
Service was down a small fraction and
its trend was followed by American
Superpower, American g. Foreign Pow
er. United Light g. Power A and Stand
ard, Oil of Indiana.
Consolidated Gas of Baltimore opened
down 3la points. Contrasting with this
movement was the rise in Missouri
Kansas Pipe and later the gain scored
by Dixie Gas g. Utilities. The natural
gas list however, was not without its
soft spots. Memphis Natural Gas, for
example, opened of 13s.
Appalachian Gas dropped a small
fraction following the authorization OF
an issue of 100000 convertible 81 pre-
ferred shares, which will be offered later
under a payment method providing for
an initial cash outlay of 80 per cent
and optional features regarding the
payment of the balance.
Radio shares were not active although
two unfavorable dividend actions were
taken in that industry Eisler Electric
equaled its previous low mark following
the omission of the 371k cents quarterly
payment. Coco Manufacturing Co. took
no action on the 2 per cent quarterly
payment due at this time
Universal Insurance Co. fell points
to 40, q new low mark for the year
Insurance securities and some others of
the group appeared on the tape occa-
sionally. but at unchanged quotations.
General Tire a. Rubber, one of the
inactive industrials, came out at 40,
or 10 points above its previous quota
ton, which incidentally was the low
level for the year. Unfavorable divi-
dend actions by several rubber and
rubber machinery companies recently,
such as National Rubber MachineryS
halving of its dividend, have brought
about q slackened speculative interest
IN this division.
Standard Oil of Kentucky early
equaled its previous minimum quotation.
Gulf Oil of Pennsylvania was also lower.
Imperial Oil of Canada continued to
move higher, but at a slackened pace.
The lower-priced miscellaneous oils
again were in supply.

FORD'S ACTIVITIES
MAY Be INCREASED
Motor Manufacturers Visit
Abroad Is Followed
With Interest.
BY DAVID ]. WILKIE,
Associated Press stan Writer.

DETROIT, September 1s.-Although
Henry Ford has stated emphatically
that his present visit to Europe is main
ly for pleasure, his movements abroad
are being followed with no little interest
by automotive executives at home. The
fact that he has been accompanied a
great deal on his movements abroad by
Sir Percival Perry, chairman of Ford
Motor, Ltd, OF England, has given rise
to speculation as Just how much BUSH
ness activity may, after all, occupy Mr..
Ford's time in Europe.
Ford Motor, Ltd, of England is the
parent concern of the various contin-
entail Ford companies, and holds some
so per cent Of the capital stock Of the
latter companies.
Plan Expansion.
Recent advices have told Of plans of
British and other European automobile
manufacturers to make more earnest
bid for domination of their own domes-
tic markets and at the same time reach
out for more export business. Ford in
terests in the foreign markets are re-
garded as fairly well protected, how
ever, by the policy of identifying each
continental plant closely with the coun-
try in which 1t is located. Wherever
home by these companies, native labor
is used and certain percentage OF
stock Is sold among home investors.
Some recent figures on the export
business for last year showed that APP
proximately one out of every f1ve cars
manufactured in the United States and
Canada were sold abroad. From these
figures can be seen the Importance of
the export business to the industry. The
falling OF in exports this year has been
as marked, as has been the reduction In
gross output, as compared with last
years record production.
Manufacturing activity at home con-
tinues at about the low level established
Immediately after the recent two-week
inventory shutdowns, and although sales
executives of some of the low price
lines claim an upward trend in retail
demand there is nothing at present to
indicate a marked increase in pro-
duction within the next few weeks at
least.
Inventory Shutdowns.
The inventory shutdowns, the re-
stricted production schedules and price
cuts designed to clear out stocks on
hand have operated to sharply reduce
dealers inventories. and many of the
industry's leaders assert that it is in
ideal condition to take immediate adj
vantage. of any upward swing in the
demand for new cars. Most of them
are agreed that the increased demand
will come soon after production
in other major fines as well as in the
automotive industry has been absorbed
and unemployment conditions have
been relieved.
j. c. Fields, sales manager of the
Chrysler Corporation, is one Of the in
dustry'S executives who does not believe
in overly optimistic statements as the
means of stimulating business condi-
lions. Leave business alone and 1t will
take care of ITSELF" he said. "There
are too many statements issued with
the idea of pumping up business. The
result Is everybody thinks business must
be very poor. Business doesn't need
pumping up; leave it alone and the re-
suits will speak for themselves"

GRAIN MARKET

CHICAGO, September 10 (P).-Wheat
values displayed downward bias today,
Influenced a good deal by reports that
the Grain Sterilization Corporation
would have some of its wheat surplus
holdings ground to be used as feed and
shipped into drought districts. Selling
pressure both on the wheat market and
on corn resulted, although President
Minor Of the sterilization corporation
has repeatedly said that any wheat
sales by the corporation would be re-
placed by purchases in the open market.
weakness of wheat was also promoted
by a late break In corn prices de-
veIopment due to increased selling as
the day drew TO an end.

ADVANCE IN DAIRY
PRODUCTS PRICES SEEN

By the Associated Press.
The expectation that prices for dairy
products, including butter, will advance
moderately during the Autumn, but re-
main at a lower level than for several
years past, was expressed today at the
Department of Agriculture.
This view was predicateo upon trend
toward expansion in the dairy industry.
In a report describing the dairy outlook
the department said while the drought
caused heavy damage to production
during the past season supplies Of
roughage and hay are ample in the
most important dairy sections and the
decrease In Fall production is not ex-
pected to be as heavy as the decrease
during the Summer months.
