ASK PUBLIC COUNT
Of SHOOTING STARS
Astronomers Seek Aid in
Meteor Shower on Next
Thursday Night.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press
NEW YORK, August 5-The best
opportunity in several years to see
brilliant shooting stars comes Thurs
day night, August IL. after midnight,
The annual shower of Perseid meteors
is due that night, with possibilities that
it may strike the night before or after.
Expectations of a bigger show this
year are not based on more meteors,
but on less interference by moonlight.
The moon will set about midnight Au-
guest II.
In a dark sky even these tiny bits
of mineral flash like rockets.
The meteors will come out of the
northeast, from the constellation Per-
seus. By dawn this point will be al
most overhead
The public is asked to aid astron-
omers in studying the Perseids. DR.,
Charles p. Oliver, director of the Flower
Astronomical Observatory Of the Uni
versity of Pennsylvania, Upper Darby,
Pa, requests that counts be mailed to
him of the hourly or half-hourly num-
berS of meteors seen on any OF the
three nights. Each count should be
by one person only, rather than the
total of two or more observers.

DETROIT. August 5.-Among the
matters Roy D. Chaplin. new Secretary
of Commerce, will attend to before
moving to Washington is a postponed
tennis game with Frederick S. Stearns,
head of a pharmical manufacturing
concern.
Stearns was one of a group of friends
who greeted Chaplin when he arrived
here yesterday from Washington. Others
included Edsel Ford, Phelps Newberry
and Walter Foster, the latter a boy
hood friend from Lansing.
That the appointment of Chaplin to a
cabinet post was a complete surprise to
these friends was revealed when Mr..
Stearns exclaimed, 80 that's why you
postponed our tennis game" Chaplin
had said merely that he had to go to
Washington.

SECURITIES RESIST
SELLING PRESSURE
Stock Market Is Declared to
Be in an ACCumuIative
Stage.
BY CHARLES W. STORM,

Editor. the News Service of Wall Street.
Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, March 8.-Day-to-day
developments warrant the conviction
that the groundwork for a substantial
upward movement in prices of stocks
has been laid.
The stock market has been in an ac-
cumulative stage and important bank
ing interests steadily have been absorb
ing attractive issues. The action of the
market the last week indicates clearly
that stocks are now in such strong
hands as to be immune from unfavor-
able developments of minor nature.
The general list, in rebounding after
each reaction, also indicates that a sub
stantial demand is being built up at
slightly lower prices. This makes for
stability of prices.
The public also is beginning to show
some interest marketWise. Brokers
loans last week revealed an increase of
$4,000, 900.
An important development has been
the appearance of foreigners as sub
stantial buyers of American stocks.
featured by special buying on the part
OF the French, who for long time were
reported bearish on American stocks.
Buying by the French has appeared
both in stocks and bonds.
Reports current late last week were
that an increased number of prime
American stocks would be introduced to
trading on the Paris Bourse.
Skepticism over foreign financial con-
d1tionS was greatly diSSipated last Fri
day when the British treasury paid off
$150,00000 of the $200,0000 900 Amer
ican credits, which do not mature for
six months. Improvement in the pound
sterling also reflects betterment in Brit
ish finances.
Announcement that the Reichsbank
last week had paid off S10000,000 of
the $1,000 900 maturing credits and
that the remaining $4,000 900 had been
extended for period of three months
also was accepted as indicating better
ment in the international credit situa-
ton

u. s. EXPORT TRADE
CONTINUES SMALL
Commerce Department Re.
ports January Shipments
Declined s100,OOO,OOO.
BY CHAS. P. SHAEFFER,
Associated Press Business Writer.

Reduced exports continue to be an
in this country.
Foreign trade statistics Just released
by the Commerce Department shows
shipments to other nations in January
dropped s1O0 900, 900 as compared with
the last month of last year, while the
rate of decline in imports was only $50
600 600 less than in January, 1881.
with foreign purchases normally alb
sorbing about 10 per cent of our total
domestic production. it is readily seen
American prosperity is dependent in
no small degree upon the amount of
goods sold abroad.
Foreign trade last year was less than
anv wear since 1915. Exports totaled
about So, 2,425, 900 900 and imports slight
Iv more than $4,000 100000, the total
representing a drop of so per cent as
compared with 1929, and 80 per cent
less than 1880.
Lowered purchasing power of ell the
nations is considered by this Govern
ment to be the greatest deterrent to
foreign trade. Abandonment of the
gold standard in many countries in the
last half of 1881 tended to discourage
imports into those countries, and, more
important to American trade, it like
wise lowered the cost of their export
able goods measured in terms of gold,
thus enabling those countries to COM
pete very successfully in markets which
the United States formerly dominated.
High tariffs promulgated by foreign
countries were mainly successful in cut
ting down their imports, while restric-
tions and embargoes on incoming ship
ments likewise slowed down exports of
United States goods.
The United Kingdom continued our
hest customer during January, with total
purchases of $4,000, 900, or $10,000,O00
more than Canada. our next best Gus
TONER. Canada was our principal source
of supply during the month, shipping
goods here worth $16,000,000, while
Japan was in second position with ship
ments of $14000,000.

BOND PRICES GAIN
IN STEADY BUYING
Rail List in Demand-U. S
Issues Continue Advanc.
ing Tendency.
BY r. II. RICHARDSON.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK. March S-Bonds con-
tinued their slow but steady advance
today. Trading was in moderate vol
ume
The best opening gains were in the
railroad list. Standard Statistics in
dex of so representative bonds reached
a new 1882 high early in the day and
all subdivisions of the index, the indus
trials, utilities and railroads, were also
at new tops, although the railroad
group was just barely above its level
of 76.9 reached on January 81. Never
theless all parts of the general list
showed an advance of more than Is
average points from the December,
1881, low, which, in terms of the total
market value of bonds listed on the
New York Stock Exchange, means an
appreciation of about S7,500.0 0000
With another $1,000 0000 900 added for
the appreciation in United States Gov
eminent bonds and considerable recov-
cry in unlisted bonds, investors have
gotten back more than third OF the
ground lost in the bond markets de-
cline from its 1880 high.
Government issues today were reflect
ing a heavy demand for the new Treas
ury offering of 5000 900, 900 in and IL
month bills. 1t was thought that allot-
ments of the l2-month notes. which
carry 324 per cent coupon, would be
very small The demand was again most
brisk in those Treasury long-term bonds
selling at a discount, such as Treasury
IS, which gained more than "A point;
Treasury 3isS. which were about y
point higher, and Treasury 334s. selling
around 800 per cent yield basis. Lib
critics advanced narrowly.
The undoubted indication, in this up
turn, of a further rediscount rate cut
this week also carried the high grade
corporation list higher.
American Telephone 5s crossed par
and Philadelphia Co. 5s, Consolidated
Gas SIPS and other prime utilities i'm
proved. Seasoned carrier bonds were
also y to / y points higher the most
active being Atlantic Coast Line As,
Baltimore & Ohio first As, Atchison
general As, Canadian Pacific As, Chesa-
peake &, Ohio general 412s and Norfolk
e. western As. Junior rails like Nickel
Plate IS, Erie SIS, Frisco 4i2s, Denver
& Rio Grande Western SIS and South
ern Railway IS gained to points.
A spectacular development in the
foreign department was the sudden
jump of sterling more than 18 points
to new high on the recovery Since
this resulted from the fact that the
Bank of England rate is out of line
with the British money market and
foreign balances we're attracted by the
high interest rates, London considered
that the improvement had a bearish
flavor. British 5 l2s were forced down
~ points here. but later recovered
some of the lost ground.

assist in smoothing out differences be-
tween the Farm Board and Reconstruc-
ton Finance Corporation as to the han
ding of s50,Qo0000 set aside to keep
stabilization Gotten of the market until
1888.
Although announcement was made
Monday that the corporation had al
lotted that sum to the American Cotton
Cooperative Association and the Cot
ton Sterilization Corporation, with the
condition that they hold their cotton
from the market until next year, 1t
was strongly indicated in Farm Board
circles Yesterday that the announce
ment was premature.
Since then, intensive conferences
have failed to bring an agreement as
to the conditions that shall bind the
loan. which was sought under one set
of terms and approved under different
conditions,
Secretary of Agriculture Hyde was at
the White House twice wednesday,
once accompanied by Chairman James
c. Stone of the Farm Board. Stone
returned to Washington unexpectedly
from a lengthy trip after the sudden
announcement of the loan.
E. F. Creekmore, general manager OF
the Cotton Cooperative Association,
also came to the Capital and is par
ticipating in the conferences. 1t was
said in some quarters that the board
had receded to the extent that 1t is
now willing to have the accumulated
cotton held from the market. How
ever, the other differences are blocking
an agreement.
