SCHALL ACCUSES
HOOVER NOMINEE
Nordbye, Proposed for Judge,
Attacked for Alleged Grand
Jury Influence.

BY the Associated Press.
Senator Schan charged today before
the Senate Judiciary Committee, study
ing the nomination of Gunnar H. Nord-
bye as Minnesota Federal judge, that
the nominee had thrown grand
jury off the track of scandal that was
leading to the Governors Office"
The Minnesota Senator interrupted
Norton Cross. Minneapolis lawyer, who
was testifying in favor of Nordbye, and
said Nordbye's charge to a grand jury
promised to go into the rat farm
scandal" which. he said, had since
come out into the open"
Cross, however, replied vigorously
that Nordbye had charged the grand
Jury to confine itself to the matters be-
fore it, and he was supported by George
B. Leonard, president of the Minneap-
oils Bar Association. They contended
the grand jury had no jurisdiction, but
Schall replied that its Jurisdiction in
the matter extended over the State.
The blind Senator, who had previous
ly announced he would fight Nordbye' S
scandal" cost the State SAT 900 900.
Chairman Blaine criticized Hoover
for sending the nomination to the Sem
ate with only few days left to con-
slider it. Blaine said the action was
'unjustifia BILE"

in the nomination until the last few

Clearings in every city in the

PRICE CHANGES

Amusement Issues Continue

Leads Small Motors Gain
BY w. S. COUSINS

NEW YORK, Sept. O.N.S0 .
"A new record for dullneSS and in
activity was written in stock mar.
ket records today, when transac-
tions on the big board fell to
100000 shares from the opening
Of the market until the noon
peroid.
This is at the rate Of half a
million shares in the full session.
the equal Of which has not been
seen in Wall Street in many a
day.
Speculation Dead
With speculative interest almost
completely withdrawn, it was
logical that price changes should
have been narrow and insignifi-
cant. Leaders on the steel, oil,
copper and utility shares roamed
around through the narrowest of
price ranges, with the trend
toward slightly higher values.
Loew's Paramount and a few Of
the low-pr1ced amusement stocks
continued their advance to the
higher levels, Loew's moving
ahead 1A to 81. United States
Steel at SO showed a fractional
gain. Auburn Auto moved up 21a
points to 1877, and General Motors
sold fractionally higher.
The oils reflected with higher
prices the effects of proration in
the crude oil producing fields Of
East Texas and Oklahoma.
Precedent Followed
The decrease in speculative &C.
tivity on the big board today
was in line with the records of
this period over the last few
years, though the contraction in
the volume of business done has
not been so pronounced since
1926.
Indifference to outside bad
news of different kinds, at home
and abroad, has been the out
standing factor, and Wall Street
is generally of the opinion that
the market is "sold out" of the
pace-making stocks in all import
ant divisions.
Commodities were irregular with
sirmness in grain offset by con-
tinued softness in cotton.

LIGHT To FLOOD
ALL LONDON

LONDON. Sept. 1.-According
to the plans of the International
Illumination Congress, London
will be bathed in a rainbow of
light in connection with the ses-
sions of the congress to be held
in that city next month. The
electrical and gas industries are
to collaborate in turning London
into a fairyland city.
While the original proposal was
to have the city Illuminated for
one week, so great has been the
enthusiasm that the display, it is
said, will be held all through
September.
Instead of ordinary floodlights,
an elaborate color scheme is be-
ing worked out. Among the prin-
cipal structures to be illuminated
are the Houses Of Parliament,
Buckingham Palace, Westminster

Somerset House, Foreign Office,

CRASHES
FOUND FEW

NEW YORK, Sept. 1.-Drivers
of pleasure cars cause more motor
vehicle accidents, proportionately,
than the maligned taxi chauffeur
and the pedestrian, survey OF
automobile accidents recently
made by the policy holders ser
vice bureau of the Metropolitan
Life Insurance Company shows.
The survey, undertaken at the
request of the National Associa-
ton of Taxicab Owners finds:
According to the United
States Census Bureau, the Ma
tional Safety Council and other
sources, $4,000 motor vehicle
fatalities occurred in 1880, an
increase of 81 per cent over
1929. The rate of these fatal
ties per 10000 registered motor
vehicles rose from 11.S for 1929
to 124.4 in 1880; while the rate
per 100000 population increased
from 25.7 in 1929 to 1858 in
1880. Using the generally &C
cepted ratio of thirty-five non
fatal accidents to one death, it
is estimated that more than
100000 persons are injured
annually through motor vehicle
accidents"
