This would be about four times the

One wheat specialist said that only
succession of crop failures, or enor-
mously reduced acreages in this coun-
try, could put the United States any
where near a domestic basis
December and July corn sold at a
new low for the season. Minimum fig

TO SPEND HOLIDAYS
AT HOME With KIN
Dozens Board Trains Even Be-
fore Moves to Recess Are
Under Way

Washington, Dec. 49, The
spirit of Christmas gripped congress
Friday, with dozens Of senator's and
representatives dashing for home
bound trains even before formal
moves to recess over the holidays had
been made.
Speaker Garner was doubtful as he
prepared to call the house together
that enough representatives would be
on hand to transact business, but If
there were, efforts were to be made
to complete action on the interior
department supply bill and possibly
take up the compromised Philippine
independence bill before taking a
brief three day recess. Senate lead
ers planned a To-day recess for that
branch.
Final passage Of the interior de-
partment measure was blocked Thurs
day by Representative DePriest of
Illinois in a parliamentary move
which showed lack of q quorum.
DePriest sought to have an item of
$460,000 added to the measure for
Howard university, Negro institution
supported by the government.
Philippine independence in 10
years was approved Thursday by the
senate and only house action now is
necessary to send it to President
Hoover. Some Republican senators
expressed belief the president would
veto it.
Garner has insisted that because
of pressing business the house should
take only three-day recess, and he
decided Thursday night to order the
arrest by the sergeant alarms of
members absent next Tuesday in the
event a quorum Is not present. After
answering the roll call the arrested
members would be released.

New York, Dec. 23.-(P)-The stock
market again lapsed into a state of
quiescence Friday, after Thursdays
selling furry.
A little more selling drifted through
the list here and there, but there
was no repetition of Thursdays
pounding down of prices. On the
whole, Fridays market held about
steady, in listless, pre-holiday trad
ing.
The bottling stocks attracted some
attention, Crown Cork dropping
points, then recovering partially
Owens Illinois Glass sagged more
than point. Case lost a point, and
substantial fractional losses appeared
in Allied Chemical, Santa Fe, Johns
Manville and a few others. Such is
sues as U. s. Steel, American Tele-
phone and American Can were about
steady. New York Central, Thurs
days weak feature, rose a fraction,
then slid back.
Prices held to a narrow groove, and
the market closed with a barely
steady tone, with most price changes
fractional. The turnover was less
than million shares.
