To BUY FOR
INCOME
Spectator Says Some Stocks
Safe as Savings Banks or
Bonds Pay Better Dividends
BY THE SPECTATOR

NEW YORK, Sept. l9.-Har.
vest time for the bears still con.
tinues.
It is doubtful if even the most
pessimiStic traders Of one and
two years back had fully visioned
the drastic extent of the liquida-
ton which today has flattened
the prices Of stocks to levels un-
thought Of in those memorable
bull market days.
BY all the rules and reguIa-
tiOnS which have governed mar.
ket movements in the past, stocks
are in an attractive buying zone
today. That is, If investors are
content to buy for the pull"
Pulled" Too Often
The trouble at the moment is
that individuals began buying for
the pull" Immediately after the
first wave of selling back in
September, 1929. If additional
buying was INDUCED in on one
tenth of the occasions during
which brokerage houses earnestly
beSought their clients to do so
since, then there are quite a few
OF the So-called investors who are
pulled" up as far as they can
go.
Regardless of how far the pres.
ent unwarranted pessimism may
carry stocks on the downSide. it is
ridiculous to reason that all issues
are to be relegated to the scrap
heap.
American Telephone, General
Electric, Consolidated Gas, and
issues of like caliber have always
proved themselves greater than
any past depression, and it is Ger.
tain when some SembIance of nor
maIcy returns to the market that
these stocks will again assume
leadership.
Buy for Dividend
Careful buying at this time, not
so much for the pull" as for the
current liberal dividend return,
which in most cases is larger than
that obtainable on savings bank
deposits, and even bond yields,
and is probably just as safe, will
return worthwhile dividends in pc
RODS OF more normal business.

BANKERS BLOCK
: BEAR RAID ON
STERLING
Refuse All offers Under $4.85,
And Support Is Withdrawn
From Domestic Stock List
By w. S. COUSINS

NEW YORK, Sept. 10 G.N.S0 .
Stocks at the week end were
again forced sharply downward
by one of the most violent sell
ing waves of the month.
UneaSinesS over the British fl
pancial situation as reflected in
further declines in sterling ex-
change and British government
bonds was an important factor in
the fresh deluging of the market
with selling orders wiping out Of
speculative supports" of various
kinds contributed further to the
markets weakness near the close.
Bankers Protect Sterling
Wall Street bankers spiked the
efforts of bearist spectators to
upset the market by selling Sterl-
ing exchange short. With the
pound sterling selling under 4.85,
and offerings at lower quotations,
the bankers refused to accept
short selling orders and no trans
actions Of this variety were per-
mitted.
With the fast ticker about five
minutes late, the selling volume
reached a total of 100000 shares
in the first half hour, or more
than twice as large as in yester-
days session. The heaviest losses
were recorded in the favorites
which were under fire during
most Of yesterdays session.
American Telephone and Tele-
graph added 4 points to yester-
days 612-point reaction and sold
at 1921. General Electric broke
under 80 for loss Of / point.
United >Sates Steel fell off IA to
76A. Consolidated Gas declined
a point to 1875.
New Low Average Set
From the first tap of the open
ing bell to the close of the two
hour session the market had little
or no relief from the violent down
pouring of selling, which rained in
from all sides.
Uniform losses of l to 3 points
in the market leaders brought
prices to an entirely new low level,
for individual shares the lowest
in one to 10 years.

VATICAN AND ITALY
PASS ANNIVERSARY
Holiday to Celebrate Enter
ing of Rome by State Army
in 1870 Is Cancelled.
Nv the Associated press

BY the Associated Press.
VATICAN CITY, September 21.-A
new peace yesterday marked the sixty
first anniversary OF the fall Of Rome
before Italian arms, with its subsequent
58-year breach between the church and
the state, during which the Popes were
prisoners in the Vatican
Yesterday Pope Plus XXI and Premier
Mussolini had strengthened the new
agreement under the Lateran treaty
and the concordat by their accord,
actuated on September 2. defining more
clearly the scope Of religious and civil
authority.
Holiday Cancelled.
The Italian Army entered Rome on
September 20, 1870 This is the first
year that the date has not been cele-
brated. In Difference to the church,
and as symbol of the restoration of
peace, II Duce abolished it as a ma
tional holiday.
The forthcoming visit OF the premier
to the Pontiff is to be public recogni-
ton of what it is hoped will be lasting
settlement, but it will be weeks before
the new relations are fully established
and everything is working smoothly.
The reopening of the $4,000 Catholic
clubs, which the government closed, al
ready has been accomplished technical
~, but many of their leaders will be
changed.
Groups to IntermingIe.
In Catholic schools Fascist organiza-
tions will be formed, and in the Fascist
organizations there will be an en-
largement of church influence.
Both the government and the Vatican
have expressed satisfaction over the
agreement, but both sides are avoiding
shouts of triumph over victories either
tiationS which were conducted outside
of diplomatic channels by the Jesuit
priest, Father Tacchi Ventura, friend
Of both Pope Plus and Premier Mus
solini.

aAor from Pennsylvania. and Senator
Wttson received brides from the B. G.
Dahlberg Co., head Of number of
latye sugar corporations in the United
Suites, testimony before the Senate
libby investigation committee shows.
The brides were paid to the sena-
tors for getting higher tariffs on
sugar for the sugar bosses. Davis
made a special trip to the A. F.. L.
convention at Vancouver in october
to denounce unemployment insurance
as menace to the American spirit.
While Davis was attacking unem-
pioyed insurance, helping the leaders
q the American Federation of Labor,
and the wage cut drive, he was get
ting stocks from the Dahlberg Co.
because he aided them in getting
higher tariffs.
The big sugar barons, the testi-
nony showed, we're donating for the
campaign fund Of Herbert Hoover as
well as for AL Smith. These facts
were brought out in the testimony OF
john Holland special investigator for
the committee.
In previous investigations on the
same subject it developed that Presi-

the big sugar interests, and that he
helped his personal attorney graft

While he was getting money from
the sugar barons, Senator Davis was

Woll and William Green in their
TRADES aaginst the Soviet Union.

NEW YORK. Australian railway
workers, whose unions are reported to
have applied for affiliation to the
Red International OF Labor Unions,
are preparing for a general strike IN
the state of Queensland to fight back
wage cuts. A cable dispatch to the
New York Times reports that the
railroad workers have refused TO
handle cars coming out Of the Dob
byn mine where the miners are on
strike against wage cuts. This, says
the cable, may result in a strike in
volving all state rail service and
coastal shipping. The dispatch soss
on to say:
"A meeting of extremists here

national has declared general rail
strike from midnight Thursday
Another cable from Melbourne
says:
THE Australian Railways Union,

Of 100000 feet of Soviet lumber due
to arrive at the port of New York No.
vember 25, it was reported in Wash

This action was forced on the Trea-

all the lies about convict labor in
Soviet lumber cutting and finishing
areas. Amtorg Trading Corp. officials
served official proof that the lumber
was not produced by any kind of con-
Wet labor.

ing and food for the National
Hunger marchers when they go to
through here. The "Socialisr
mayor sent the delegation Of the
Unemployed Councils and National
Hunger March Committee 10 the
Poor Board.
When the committee told him
this was no case for relief, but
struggle of the masses of unem-
ployed workers for unemployment
insurance, and reminded him that
the Socialist Party pretends it is in
favor of some sort Of insurance,
the Mayor merely declared, II
won't do anything
The Unemployed Council Is
issuing a leaflet exposing this
policy of the Socialist Party, as
shown through its Mayor here,
calling for a demonstration FRI
day, Dec. 4, when the National
Hunger Marchers arrive in Read
ing. The Ieaflet calls on workers
to support the march and its de-
mands for unemployment insur-
ance and relief for the jobIess by
collecting food and funds to pro-
vide lodgings. A local committee
is arranging the housing and
feeding of 80 marchers.
