sionS and will receive instructions for
the meeting in Paris. where Mr.. Ar
mott, Harold F. Sheets of Socony-
Vacuum and James A. Moffett. vice

STOCKS IRREGULAR
ON HEAVY SELLING
A. T. & T. and U. S. Steel Are
Targets in Late Barrage
of Offerings.
BY GEORGE T. HUGHES.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, June 9-Heavy selling
in the last hour of United States Steel
and Of American Telephone g. Tele-
graph unsettled today'S stock market
and turned earlier strength into ir-
regularity.
The market had staged a pro-
nourced recovery in the first part of
the session and in midafternoon was
down only slightly from its best. Then
toward the close large offerings of
United States Steel common and pre-
ferred appeared and prices for both
touched new bear market lows. Amer
lean Telephone was also in supply and
yielding. Eastman Kodak and one or
two other industrials sold off sharply.
but the general list made effective re-
slstance around the levels prevailing
Wednesday.
The late selling did not look like
liquidation. It had more the appear
ance OF professional operations for the
decline. However, it did check the
rally.
Opening prices were lower and a num-
Der OF new records on the doWnside were
established, although generally only by
fractions. American Telephone & Tele-
graph, United States Steel common. In
Stores were among the issues dipping
to new low levels on the initial transac-
tions
After half an hour OF. trading the
market hardened. and then began slow
but broad advance taking in indus
trials, utilities and the rails. The stocks
which had been under greatest pressure
yesterday were leaders on the rebound.
Brooklyn Manhattan Transit common
and preferred advanced, the latter I'D
over points before noon. While there
was no official announcement, opinion
was veering to the belief that the pre-
terred dividend at least would be paid.
The merchandising issues rallied. in
Guiding r. H. Macy and Woolworth.
Two and more points were added by
such stocks as Air Reduction. Allied
Chemical and Coca Cola. Smaller
gains were made by American Can,
Eastman Kodak and many others. In
the utility list Consolidated Gas. Peo-
pies Gas. Pacific Gas & Electric and
Public Service of New Jersey were
strong. The rails were represented by
Union Pacific, up over points; Atchi-
soC and Delaware & Hudson.
Steel common, selling in the first
hour at 25is was at new low for the
depression. The preferred came down
70 o0-2 only traction above its old
low. Both stocks were slower on the
than the other industrials and
gossip continued about the preferred
dividend, which, however, is not to be
acted upon for over a month yet. OBJ
vicusly much will depend on the busi-
ness outlook at that time. although it
IS believed that the steel directors would
hesitate long time before making any
REDUCTION in the disbursement on the
senior issue

AUTO REPLACEMENT
DEMAND is AWAITED
Sales Executives Point to Steady
Depreciation of Cars Now
in Use.
BY DAVID ]. WILKIE.

Written for the Associated Press
DETROIT. June 9-Although stored
up buying power" so far has proved more
OF mirage than an actually to the
automobile industry, sales executives
have not yet discarded all their hopes
of its potentialities.
"Stored-up buying power" first was
heard Of at the end of 1880. when
production and distribution expecta-
tions failed of realization. The longer
the public withholds its buying orders
the greater will be the ultimate volume
OF business when the jam is broken"
was a commonplace remark among
dealers and sales directors.
The hope continued through 1881
and still the expected release of orders
tailed to materialize. Then came the
philosophy that a new order must
prevail in the motor car industry: the
theory that 100000 cars constituted
normal years business-both in pro-
duction and in retail distribution
went into the discard. In its place
came the general thought in the in
dustry that the future business of the
motor car manufacturers must depend
almost solely upon replacement. with
comparatively little tirst-owner pat
rOnage.
The industry's leaders Gid not intend
to imply their market had become satu-
rated; they insisted it could not be-
come overfed so long as cars must
wear out. 1t might be necessary, they
said. to readjust their conceptions of
a normal years business, but. they
pointed out. regardless OF how much the
motorist tried to get out Of his auto
mobile ultimately the car must give
up and be replaced
w D. Edenburn. head of the De-
troit Auto Dealers Association. is one
of the executives who believe the trade
sooner or later must feel the effects
of delayed buying. so far" he said
today, there has been practically no
replacement buying this year. BY re-
placement buying 1 mean replacement
of cars definitely ready for the scrap
heap The replacement of worn-out
cars must come regardless of what is
said about the extension of the average
life of the average car"

sanest remark. The reporter for the
New York Times had written that
he had not seen any story" The
Courier journal said of the dinner.
1T is not altogether improbable
that the reporter for the yellow
journal was guilty of more or less
exaggeration. but according to the
canon of journalism there was ma
terial for a story. The definition of
news that obtains in every city room
