DOMESTIC BONDS
 IN MARROW RANGE
Pressure Confined to Small List
 Of Issues

New York, Dec. P-High grade domestic bonds moved in a narrow range today. but some wide reces- sions cropped out among carrier ob- legations. Pressure was confined to a comparatively small list of issues and domestic bonds generally showed a tendency to recover somewhat from the setback received in the pre- vious session.
 Certain issues Of the Chicago X North Western, Erie. Missouri Pacific, Nickel Plate. and Alleghanv Corporation were among those that moved sharply lower.
 New issues totaling s40,000. 0G0 of fered today brought the volume for the week to sS0,44O,0oO against Slj,- S74,0 last week. Toledo Light and Power Company offered S35, 5,000,0oU in per cent notes and the State of Missouri marketed s5,000,o00 in 4 per cent bonds.
 Indicative of a swing from stocks obtaining new capital an analysis of public financing for the II months of 1880 indicates that more than four-ffths was in bonds and notes. This is in sharp contrast with 1929 when stocks found favor with the public. During November bond is- sues comprised 90 per cent of the new financing.
 The fall of the French govern ment had virtually no effect on it's obligationhs in the local market. French ' 1-os and French Is held around their peak prices of the year. German governments were strong.

WOODS ID OPPOSE CHANCE IN CHARTER
Will Speak Against Project Al. ieCting Prosecutors Status

Prosecuting Attorney Joseph c. Woods will appear before the char ter revision committee tonight and oppose the proposed charter amend ment to create an additional office Of prosecuting attorney, he said to- day.
 Two years ago, when the same proposition was under consideration. he was opposed to it and he said to- day his opinion has not changed. The present system Of having one prosecuting attorney and an assist ant works out very satisfactorily, in his opinion, and he sees no justi- liable reason for a change.
 The office of prosecuting attorney carries a salary of $3,000 and that of the assistant. $500 a year. Those who favor a change whereby there would be two prosecuting attorneys on equal basis would have each of- flee carry a s2500 salary.
