UGH ORCHARD, COnven-
IL ton manager of the Cham
Der of Commerce at Cedar Rapids,
Iowa, has driven two Willys-Knight
cars a total of 10000 miles.
In front of the War Memorial on
a day that was none too warm he
pushed the starter to show that the
motor was not CONCEALED and di-
rected the reporter to look at his
speedometer.
"This is my second WHY'S
Knight car" he said. "And it has
been run 81, 900 miles. My other
one had done $4,000 miles when

have given me good advice about

F.. TO SAFEGUARD
NAVY ASKED

CHICAGO, June is U.SO.
A pledge by the Republican party
to build UP and maintain the
Navy at the levels agreed on
in the Washington and London
Naval Treaties is asked by the
Navy League in a plank pro,
posed to the Republican, national
convention.
Henry Cabot Lodge. of Nahant,
Mass, son of the late Senator
Lodge of Massachusetts,, yeSter,
day handed to James R. Gar
field, chairman of the conven-
tion's resolution committee, a
letter from Walter Bruce Howe,
chairman of the leagues board
Of directors, suggesting the form
Of the navy plank.
Directors of the league Friday
unanimously passed a resolution
to request the Republican and
Democratic conventions to adopt
the following plank:
"The common defense, of
which the navy Is the front
line, is first on the list of those
Federal functions which are
especially attributed to Con-
gress by the Constitution.
"If, therefore, the Navy is
not maintained by the Federal
Government, it is not main
tanned at all.
"The fact that SO large a
percentage of Government
funds goes to paying the costs
Of past wars is proof Of the
urgent need of spending a rela-
Y lively small annual percentage
on the Navy in order to deter
others from war against us.
: The low cost of materials and
the need of employment make
the present an OppOrtune time
to build.
"FOr these reasons we intend
20 build up and maintain the
Navy at the levels agreed on
in the Washington and London
treaties"

CURB SHARES WEAK
INACTIVE MARKET.
Support Is Extended to Lead
ers, but Many Issues
Decline.
BY JOHN A. CRONE.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, october 8.-Stocks de-
clined on the Curb Exchange today and
closed at virtually the low levels OF the
session.
Support was thrown into the market
at the end of the first hour and steadled
some of the leaders or brought about
a fractional recovery in them. but the
list as a while was weak. Trading was
active.
Electric Bond g. Share, Cities Service
and Standard Oil of Indiana finished
above their lows, while United Light d
Power A and American Gas & Electric
tried to rally. Singer Manufa curing
was one of the few higher-price &NA-s
to show net gain near the end.
Although week end trade reviews en-
phasized the recovery Of retail trade
and the continued high rate OF the
lighter manufacturing industries, tne
market had a number OF initial un-
favorable factors. These included lne
receivership for S. w. Straus & Co,
the halting of the inflow CT gold, nrm-
ing of foreign currencieS and the de-
crease of the short interest on the curb.
Contrary to traders expectations, the
short position as of october amounted
to 2785l shares against 28,4l8 on Sep
tember Is.
Later in the session the decline OF
wheat and the increased cotton crcp
estimate aggravated the selling. causing
many stocks to touch or approximate
their levels of early August.
The various oil companies in the
PENNSYLVANIA field resisted pressure
somewhat better than other sections OF
the petroleum list, as it was announced
that September crude output, both III
the Bradford and Allegheny fields was
below that of August.

WHEAT PRICES SINK
ON CROP PROSPECTS
outlook for Harvest in Southern
Hemisphere Is Reported Coed.
Argentina Prospect
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, october 8.-Hopes OF up
turns in grain values are just now COLI
verring more and more on southern
Hemisphere crop prospects for Wheat.
The critical period OF wheat grown
in the countries below the equator Is
close at hand, with traders generally
recopnizinp that the size of the area
sown is by far less important than de-
yelopment conditions at present ahead.
A striking fact pointed out is that only
half a crop was harvested by Argentina
in 1929-30 on almost top record acre
age. ,.,..,, L.,
the Southern Hemisphere, however,
chiefly regarded as good and Win
keener export competition looked Tor,
wheat this morning compared to week
ago. was 3ss-334 cents bushel lower
Corn lA-11s down, oats 1915 OF
and provisions showing q to 81 cents
decline.
Latest authoritative preliminary. re-
ports suggest that Argentina Will nave nave
wheat outturn this season >put nttie
under that of last year. Moreover, the
existing outlook in Australia is Tor
harvest somewhat in excess of last sea-
sons total. On the other hand, Leading
market experts here say that any serl-
Gus impairment of Southern Hemisphere
crop prospects either in Argentina or
Australia would be apt to turn world
import demand more decisively to North
America.
A material reduction of United States
Winter wheat acreage for the 1888 crop
is indicated by private trade returns. 1t
is regarded, though, as yet too early for
definite estimates. Tine actual acreage
appears likely to be determined Tor the
most part by the price levels and the
weather conditions between now and
the end of this month. Corn and oats
have chiefly dragged lower with wheat.
Provisions show the effect of weak
ness of the hog market.

BONDS AREL0WER
AS OFFERINGS GAIN
Last-Hour Rally Fails to
Overcome Losses in
Al! Issues.
BY F. H. RICHARDSON.
Special Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star
NEW YORK, October 8.-The bond
market found pretty hard going today
in the face of the declines in wheat and
cotton and the weakness of stocks. In
the last half hour there was brisk
rally, but it was hardly enough to carry
active issues back to their previous
closing levels. United States Govern
ment issues were also under pressure.
Foreign dollar bonds remained firm.
The market opened slightly higher,
some speculative issues showing de-
clded upward trend after two days OF
declining prices. But this quickly
charged when offerings in nearly all
the weak rails and industrials increased.
Declines of q point or more appeared
IN Allegheny Corporation IS, Armour
OF Delaware 512s. Boston & Maine 5s,
Chesapeake Corporation IS, Chicago &
Northwestern 494s, Rock Island AIS,
Erie SIS, Great Northern Is, Illinois
Central 6ias, International Telephone
5s, New York Central IS and United
States Rubber IS.
The denial of the receivership appli-
cation made by bondholder of the
Nickel Plate brought gains of ! to
points in Nickel Plate bonds, but had
no effect on other rails. Nickel Plate
6s, now in default, but likely next week
to be refunded with 3-year notes and
q 25 per cent cash payment, advanced
about 4 points at one time.
High-grade corporation bonds were
unaffected by the selling. Detroit Eii-
son SIS gained nearly point. New
York Telephone 4 Us flrmed. American
Telephone 5s were higher. There was
brisk trading at firm prices in Consoli-
dated Gas 5 l2s. Atchison general As.
Norfolk & Western As, Union Pacific
first As, Standard Oil of New Jersey
IS and General Motors Acceptance 6s.
The pressure on Government bonds
was greatest in the high-coupon Treas
ury issues. where premiums of to
points are realizabe Treasury 414s
Treasury As and 334s eased The SELL
ing was largely of switching nature.
That is, banks and investing institutions
which had bought Governments around
their lows took their profits in premium
issues on the theory that the Govern
ment market cannot extend its ad-
vance far from present levels. Much
of the money so realized was turned
directly into low-coupcn Government
bonds and municipals. all of which
were firm.
Firmness characterized the European
list. South Americans were easy. Aus
tralian issues continued strong.
The appointment Of receiver for S.
w. Straus Co. was the chief develop
ment in the real estate securities mar
ket. This had lcng been expected and
consequently had little effect on quota
tions. Real estate mortgage bond deal
ers were inclined to be optimistic, be-
lieving that the cleaning up Of the
Straus situation and few others like
it will eventually benefit the market.

GOOD DIVIDEND RECORD
MADE SINCE OCTOBER

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, October 8.-To date the
October dividend record has been a fa-
vorable one. No important corporation
have reduced or omitted payments.
A number of companies that had
been expected to make cuts in their
rates have surprised their stockholders
by continuing dividends on the regular
basis. The most important dividend
policies to be decided during the re-
mainder of October are those of the
General Motors Corporation, about
whose common stock dividend of ST a
share there is some doubt, and that of
United States Steel preferred. which

ADDS TO WORLD DEBT
Revival of Business Delayed by
Continued Decrease in Values
of Raw Materials.
BY DR.. MAX WINKLER.
Special Dispatch to The Star.


NEW YORK, June 27.-Among the
many obstacles to rehabilitation of
world economic conditions, the increased
debt burden resulting from the dis
astrous decline in commodity prices
ranks foremost. This is true Of gov
ernments and political subdivisions as
we'll as individuals.
On the basis of current quotations of
wheat, for example, Argentina's debt
burden, expressed in terms of wheat,
is one and one-half times larger than
in 1881, without taking into account
the absolute amount by which the ma
tions Indebtedness has increased dur
ing that period.
If Cuba's capacity is measured in
sugar, the islands principal standby,
her burden would be one and one-flfth
as large as last year; that of Chile, if
measured in copper, one and one-haf
times as large; that of Bolivia, ex-
pressed in terms of tin, one and one
fifth times as large; that of Japan, on
the basis Of silk prices, almost twice as
large; that OF Egypt, If measured in cot
ton, one and three quarters times as
large, and that of Uruguay, If measured
in hides, two and two-fifths times as
large as in 1881.
If one were to measure great Britain's
capacity on the basis of rubber, COM
modify controlled by England, her bur-
den would be two and one-third times
as large as last year. while the Iowa
farmers burden, expressed in terms of
corn, is one and three-f1fths times larger
than it was a year ago.

NEW CURRENCY BANK
PROPOSAL INDORSED
New York Exporters Win Support
of Government in Effort to
Stabilize Exchange.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, June 27.-The group OF
exporters that recently submitted to
President Hoover and other Government
officials a plan designed to eliminate
foreign exchange restrictions announced
1t had been promised the cooperation
of the Department of Commerce in de-
veloping its proposals.
The plan would create a specially
organized bank to hold foreign currency
deposits and organize a voluntary as
sociation of importers and exporters, for
the clearing house for exchanges, to be
operated as an adjunct to the Edge
law bank"
George P Reinberg, chairman of the
Joint Committee on Foreign Exchange
Restrictions, in answer to a letter from
Frederick N. Feiker, director of the Bu-
reau of Foreign and Domestic Com
merce, said:
1T is our idea that the Edge act
bank should provide the domestic bank
guarantee required under section 5-A OF
the Reconstruction Finance Corporation
act, enabling exporters with frozen as
sets abroad to obtain 12-month accept
anceS from the Reconstruction Finance
Corporation, in this manner utilizing
these frozen assets as a basis of credit
in further continuance of their legiti-
mate business"
He added such a guarantee could not
be obtained from a commercial bank
and, therefore, the Edge act" bank was
proposed.
The joint committee has asked for q
meeting of representatives of the De-
partments Of Commerce and State in
an effort to bring about the necessary
action even before the proposed inter-
national economic conference is held.
