state of things that was reflected in the larger thrilled order book of the U. s. Steel Corp, made known as usual on the 10th of the month, the steel industry has undergone steady and encouraging, even if limited, im- provement. with prospects favorable for a situation which will result in the materially higher percentage of occupied capacity that had been foreshadowed by authorities in the business. The expanding volume of trade. at automobile centers, partic- ularly at Detroit, with the enlarge satisfactory degree, support the opin- ion that early forecasts were sound- ly based, while present predictions, made by automobile authorities, in- dicate a belief that the upswing will rot be merely seasonal in character, but will be likely to run on through the summer. due to the maintenance Of purchasing demand based upon the understanding among producers that no further new models will be brought out this year. Add to these favorable. indications the fact that building contracts continue to grow larger, and hence to afford employ ment to more men. as the season advances, and the outlook in basic production is seen to be far from discouraging. Many retail stores are reporting well-sustained trade, due to the fact that a long, slow spring has been in progress, thus prevent ing the sudden spurt of buying which often develops in late March and early April, but encouraging continuance of steady purchasing, over much longer period, with bet ter and more profitable results to distributors.
 As appears from the situation just reviewed, the bearishness which has lately been So pronounced in the market is being overdOne. There is little evidence however of any haste on the part of the professional ele- ment to cover short commitments, for the reason that the buying power of the general ,public has been dwarfed to such an extent they are meeting with small opposition in marking prices down. notwithstand- ing that every person in position to know recognizes that quotations for the shares of sound standard companies represent real bargains for those who are willing to buy and hold until the country has been giv- en further time to recuperate. For the immediate future the trading clements will doubtless continue to be the dominant factor in shaping the day to day movements As pointed out heretofore the market is not being called upon to absorb much stock for the reason that the general public have little to sell and the man of means has no intention of parting with his holdings at the ridiculously low figures now prevail ing.

Warning Of Hoover
 To All Americans
(Continued from Page 1)

The person and property of cit- izen are a part of the general do- main of the nation, even when abroad. There is distinct and binging obligation on the part of self-respecting governments to afford protection to the persons and property of their citizens. wherever they may be. . These rights go with the citizens. Wherever he goes. these duties of our government must follow him."
 On the other hand. Stimson, who has advised constantly with MT Hoover during the present Nicara- guan crisis, instructed American en- voys in Nicaragua as follows: You will advise American citizens that this government cannot under take general protection of Americans throughout that country with Amer jean forces. To do so would lead 10 difficulties and commitments this government does not propose to un- dertake. Those (Americans) who remain do so at their own risk and must not expect American forces to be sent to their aid." Stim- uate the country or go to coast c!t- ies where war vessels are stationed.
 Thus far this doctrine has been applied only to Nicaragua. Officials decline to predict whether it will be employed in the entire Caribbean area, where United states forces often have been sent during the last 30 years to protect life and prop erty.
 In Nicaragua. at present. protec- ton is being afforded on the insur- gent-ridden east coast by three war vessels stationed, respectively, at Bluefields, Pierto CabeZas, and Cape Gracias a Dios. Their commanders have authority to land forces. if nec- essary, to protect these towns from insurgent attacks, but not to oper- ate in the interior. It was made plain a high quarter here that actual fighting against the forces of General Sandino will be left to the Guardia Nacionale.
 Inquiry at the state department to-day revealed that about $50 American lives and some $19,0O0, 900 worth of American property will be affected by the administrators pol icy in Nicaragua. About 400 of these Americans, 1t is estimated. are on the east coast, to which insurgent activities are now confined.
 Another interesting point raised by observers in connection with the restricted protection of property is the effect it may have on other na- tions. In the past the United States has assumed the responsibility of protecting the lives and property of foreign nations. particularly British, in Central America rather than have European countries intervene in vio- lation of the Monroe doctrine.
 There Is some curiosity in official circles here as to the course Eu- ropean nation might pursue if the United States refused to protect it's nationals in Nicaragua. Some ob- servers see in such an instance the possibility, though not the prob- ability, of an international control versy between this country and some world power.

responsibility for maintenance of
 order in Nicaragua in the hands of
 the national guard would mean the
 complete withdrawal of the United
 States marines.
 In explaining the letter, Zepedo
 said:
 "The Americans recently killed in
 Nicaragua owe their fate to the fact that they asked the marines for pro- tection instead of paying taxes to the Sandinistas. Other Americans, particularly the mining companies in
 nearby districts. enjoy tranquility by paying taxes" In his letter, Zepeda addressed MT Hoover in the name of "the sol diers defending our national sover- eighty" "If the promise (regarding use of marines in Nicaragua officially re- iterated to-day materializes in a
 form permitting worthy Nicaraguans to dedicate themselves to honest la bors." the letter said, your excellen- cy may be sure we will be the first to cooperate effectively toward sta
 bilization and fundamental peace"

State May Alter
 Its Districts
(continued from Page 1)

As for the senatorial districts. it is claimed that the 35 senatorial districts now existing in Connecticut are very poorly laid out. It Is con- tended that to more fairly represent the heavier centers of population new districts should be set up and various changes made in the pres- ent apportionment.
 Waterbury is desirous of getting another senatorial district. Hartford would get another one, too, under the new layout, it is believed, and also Bridgeport and New Haven.
 A couple of weeks ago a democra- tic measure calling for new sena- torial districts went unsupported at a hearing. Therefore. hope of hav- ing the question discussed this ses- sion faded. Now, though. the com mittee on congressional and sena- torial districts has raised two bills to meet the situation and some defin- ite action Is expected before the close of the session.

nInN,T PAY TAXES

Mexico City, April 18.-OP)- The deaths of American citizens at the hands of insurrectionists in Nicaragua this week were due to their failure ito pay taxes to the Sandinistas," Dr Pedro Zepeda, agent of the Nicaraguan insurgent leader, Augusta Sandino, said to-day.
 Simultaneously, Zepeda made public a letter he had addressed to President Hoover, saying that San- dino would be ''the first to cooper ate' in esta ablishment of peace in Nicaragua If the United States plan for withdrawal of the marines is carried out.
