At the annual membership dinner
Of the Canton, Ohio, Chamber of
Commerce last week the retiring pres
ident declared in his address 1.-THE f.

ship are we'll Invested for che good of
our city. While the dividends 0 al
ways are returned in actual dollars
and cents to each individual, the city
as a whole is receiving a magnificent
return on our investment, which has
been reduced tt the lowest possible
budget consistent with our absolute
needs. We need a strong active civic
organization today more than in nor
NAL times. If ever there was need for
community leadership, for co-opera-
tive civic endeavor and for a we'll
supported Chamber of Commerce,
that need exists today"
Substitute Salisbury for Canton and
the above is equally applicable. The
Salisbury Chamber of Commerce is
leaving nothing undone to bridge over
the fast fading depression and the raj

1T is a gloomy moment in history.
Not for many years-not in the Life
time of most Of the men who read this
paper-has there been so much grave
and deep apprehension; never has the
future seemed so incalculable as at this
time. In our own country there is
universal commercial prostration and
panic, and thousands of our poorest
fellow citizens are turned out against
the approaching winter without en-
~ployment, and without the prospect of
it.
"In France, the political caldron
seethes and bubbles with uncertainty;
Russia hangs, as usual, like a cloud,
dark and silent, upon the horizon Of
Europe; while all of the energies, re-
sources and influences Of the British
Empire are sorely tried, and are yet
to be tried more sorely, in coping with
the vast and deadly Indian insurrec-
ton land with its disturbed relations
with China.
"It is a solemn moment, and no man
can feel an indifference (which, hap
PLY, no man pretends to feel) in the
issue of events. Of our own troubles
no man can see the end. They are,
fortunately, as yet mainly commercial;
and if we are only to lose money, and
by painful poverty to be taught wis
dom-the wisdom of honor, of faith:
Of sympathy and Of charity no mar
need seriously to despair. And yet the
very haste to be rich, which is the oc-
cason of tbs widespread calamity, has
also tended to destroy the moral force:
with which we are to resist and subdu<
the calamity.

prove that the call comes to men who

decline Il was argued that the market
was entitled to q substantial rally, but
up to the early afternoon there were
no signs Of its appearing.
Early Market Irregular.
Confused by q conflicting batch of
earnings and trade reports, the early
market was markedly irregular. New
lows and new highs appeared simultane-
ously in different parts of the list.
McKeesport Tin Plate advanced over
a point to a new top for the year. Ru-
mors of a stock split were heard con-
corning these shares. On the other
hand, Warner Bros, Cutler Hammer,
Illinois Central, Atlantic Refining and
Skelly Oil made new lows, chiefly on
earnings reports or the proximity of d.
rectors' meetings for dividend action.
United States Steel was unchanged
and Republic Iron g. Steel and Vana-
dunn were fractionally higher. Call
money renewed at " per cent. During
the first half hour only 200,0 shares
changed hands, compared to 100000 on
Wednesday.
Active industrials registering gains
were Byers Pipe, Lcew's, Radio and Corn
Products. Weak issues were j. I. Case,
Fox Film, Montgomery Ward and
United States Industrial Alcohol Rails
were little changed. Mine shares were
shade higher, Kennecott gaining IS
to PAS. In the utilities, American Tele-
phone was lower, while Electric Power
e. Light gained. General Motors was
strong, but Studebaker, and Electric
Auto Lite were of. Oils were weak.

Covering Operations Prevent
Losses of Any Size-NeW
Lows Recorded.
BY GEORGE T. HUGHES.
Special Dispatch to The star.


NEW YORK, April 2.-It was an
other day of irregular price movements
in the stock market. New lows in one
part of the list were Offset by covering
operations elsewhere, but volume was
so light that no definite trend was tndi-
Gated.
One Of the incidents of the forenoon
session was the reduction OF the dlVl-
dend on United States Industrial Alec
hol from So to 81 annual basis. This
action, however, had been anticipated
by the stock in it's long decline and the
price recovered after the news was re-
ceived. Before the announcement Air
Reduction, a large stockholder in United
States Industrial Alcohol, dropped to
new low for the year.
Motor Stocks.
McKeesport Tin Plate moved forward
confidently during the trregularity In
the other industrials, making new
high for the year. Business reports
were optimistic as to McKeesport and
the stock evidently had strong sponsor
ship.
Motor stocks made a good showing IN
response to trade advices March cut
put, excepting Ford, was l67,S48 cars
and trucks against 14s,818 in February,
an increase of 26 per cent, although a
decrease Of "a per cent from the same
month a year ago.
Studebaker reported the largest
shipments in March for any month
since September, 1929, and untitled or
ders on hand as of April in excess Of
any month last year. There has been
J. good deal of discussion about the
safety Of the General Motors dividend
but the stock acted well today, while
Auburn as usual ran up 5 or points.
Not so much could be said of the rest
of the market. Independent Oils were
weak, with new lows in Phillips and in
Sicily, while of the Standard group
Atlantic Refining made a new low.
Omission of the dividend by Mid-con-
tinent increased the pessimism with
regard to oil company earnings.
Utilities moved uncertainty. Inter-
national Telephone was under mild
pressure while American Telephone
seemed to be in supply every time it
rallied. Standard Gas & Electric was a
point higher at one time, but in general
the light and power stocks looked heavy.
The rails. were as irregular as the in
dustrials. Atlantic Coast Line rallied a
couple of points and Southern Pacific
was a shade higher, while Delaware g.
Hudson and Illinois Central were max
ing new lows. Special weakness de-
veloped in Warner Brothers Pictures
and in Pullman.

other. Because Of the duration of the

Specially Equipped Plane May Keep Afloat for
 Many Days, Claim

MANILA, March 20.-Despite the unsuccessful 24hour search for Glenn Brophy, Los Angeles avia- tor, who disappeared at sea at tempting a 600-mile flight from Macao to Manila, hope of the avia- tors safety is rekindled when the packers of the flight said the plane was so constructed that it would float indefinitely if forced down on the water.
 L. E. Gale, who backed Brophy, is seeking to establish a commer- cial air route from Manila to Shanghai via Hongkong and Ma cao, said the plane was carefully equipped to meet forced landing on the sea. The fuselage is stuff fed with inflated airtight bags. Several life rafts and life belts are also in the equipment. Gale said these, together with the wings, should keep the plane afoat for many days.
 Meanwhile three American de- stroyers and Army aviators have widened the search.

Three Airplanes Return to Base at F Fairbanks

Believed Missing Flier Crashed Somewhere

FAIRBANKS, Alaska March 20. Three airplanes have returned here after covering more than 2,O0O miles in two days. They found no trace of Pilot Fred Moller and a passenger who disappeared March 9th after taking off from here for Circle, Fort Yukon and Eagle.
 The fliers are holding confer ence today to determine further search.
 It is not likely, according to the belief of the aviators here follow ing the futile search, that Pilot Moller crashed on any of the main routes in the Eagle, Goodpasture, Charley River, Cinema or Salcha countries. This section of the interior was thoroughly covered by the searching planes.
 Fog Encountered
 Fog prevented Pilot Ed Young from reaching the headwaters of the Panama River. seventy miles from Fairbanks.
 The three airplanes were piloted as follows: Pilot Art Hines with Game Warden Sam O. White as lookout; Pilot Ed Young, with Ar thur Johnson, General Manager of the Alaska Airways, and Bob Bart lett, newspaperman, aboard; Pilot Vic Ross, of the Northern Air Transport, accompanied by Dr. Swartz and Deputy U. s.
