Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, August 29-Although
there was some profit-taking in specu-
lative bonds, the main body of fixed in
come securities was firm to narrowly
higher today. Trading was slow. For
eign dollar issues we're led upward by
the German group.
The market opened with a steady
tone. Week end developments abroad
were generally encouraging. The speech
of German Chancellor Won Papen out
lining his policies allayed worldwide
nervousness over the outcome of the
Won Papen-Hitler political feud and
served to set at rest doubts as to flu
ture service by the Reich German
government 5 IS and Is recovered about
! to ll2 points. DeutChe Bank 6s and
German Central Bank Is and German
municipals and corporate obligations
pointed higher
Other Europeans were not as uni
form in their advance, but the majority
inclined upward. French and British
issues were firm on reports that the
meeting of Sir Herbert Samuel and
Premier Herriot may be followed by
an Anglo-French trade agreement.
Argentine 6S were weak Because of
the nominal quotations that still obtain
for the bonds of Bolivia, Paraguay.
Chile and Brazil, the Argentine issues
are about the only reliable barometer
on South American affairs Develop
ments in the Gran Chaco dispute be-
tween Bolivia and Paraguay were not
encouraging. The movement for decla-
ration of a moratorium on both in
ternal and external debts is growing in

United States Government bonds
were firm. The Federal Reserve Board
has made it plain that there will be no
unloading of the banks holdings of
81 $50, 100000 of Treasury bonds. The
reserve system will await the maturity
of the bonds it has in its portfolio.
While the total requirements of the
Treasury and the Government relief
agencies may reach as high as Sl,000,-
100000 for the September Is financing.
no difficulty is anticipated in disposing
of an issue of bonds. probably of the
to year type carrying to 3i4 per
cent coupons.
Municipal bonds were firm with the
exception of New York City's obliga-
tions. These have declined 2 to 21a
points in recent sessions when other
municiples were advancing. The custer
proceedings against Mayor Wa ker have
held up the city's economy program
Highgrade railroad. utility and in
dustrial bonds were firm. The second

Gives Lesson in
College Economy

Minneapolis, May 10.-R)-As
an economist, Arnold Samuelson
bows to no man.
He Is finishing the year as q
senior at the University of Min
nesota on one thin dime and q
5000 loan.
And after paying his expenses,
his budget shows he will have
"squandered" SO by June l.
Here's how he does it.
He cooks his own meals at a
cost Of eight cents each, and
earns his lodging In q fire station
by opening and closing the doors
when the firemen dash out dur
ing the night on fire calls. Trans
portation costs are nil because he
walks the two miles to school.
Samuelson Is a Journalism stu
dent.
The dime was saved after a
summer Of work on North Da-
kota farm. It paid a street car
fare to a district fire barn and
there he got his lodging. Here,
too, he cooks his meals and does
his laundry.
He allows himself 81 q month
for food. Six loaves of bread at
two for a nickel is the largest item
Of food expense.
Tragedy interrupted the stu
dents work at one point. His
sister, Hedvig Samuelson, was
slain at Phoenix, Ariz., several
months ago with her nurse and
friend, Mrs. Agnes LeRoi.
