OPEN MORE BIDS
ON HIGHWAY JOBS
New Road From Wilmington
to Pennsylvania State Line
Urged BY E. B. Griffenberg
DUAL HIGHWAY WORK

Highway construction and repair
work totaling 157, 1925, part Of
which is to come from the Federal
emergency fund, vii be started in
Delaware shortly if four contracts
are to be awarded on the lowest
bids opened yesterday by the State
Highway Department. The work
will include 29OO feet Of paving on
Washington street in the city of
Wilmington from where the
street now ends to where it will
connect with the Forty-third street
cutoff, which in turn connects
with the Philadelphia Pike near
Shellpot Park. Bids were also re-
ceived on paving the section Of the
new dual highway south Of Will
mington from Farnhurst to Rog-
ers' Corner, a distance Of 2,158
miles; on providing surface treat
ment for 40 miles of highway and
on providing chip surface treat
ment. State Senator f. B. Griffen-
berg appeared at the meeting and
presented a petition Of residents
north Of Wilmington requesting
construction of a highway to par
aIIel the Pennsylvania Railroad
from Wilmington north to the
State line. This project, he said,
would relieve traffic on the Phila-
delphia Pike. He said all residents
along the proposed route have Of
fered to furnish the right of way,
free of charge. A delegation rep
resenting "a farmers living on the
road between Selbyville and Cum
boro appeared requesting construc-
/ ton of a concrete road between
those two towns, a distance Of
about three miles. This delegation
also said that a free right Of way
could probably be obtained. The
delegation pleaded that the farm
ers have no convenient way Of
reaching churches and schools or
Of getting their produce to market.
The commissioners took the two
petitions under consideration, de-
ferring action. The bids received
will be studied and awards will
probably be made within the next
10 days.

 The 17-year-old daughter of AL exander Leftwich, New York musi- cal show producer, Patricia has had acting experience that over shadows, that of most of the screen novices now under contracts to the studios.
 She understudied all her fathers leading women in the last few years, assisted him with lighting and costuming and knows stage production too.
 She is slim, blond and blue-eyed, and attractive enough and capable enough actress to be on the pre- ferrsd list of those at her studio, being trained for stardom. But she says her worst misfortune is that she still is taken for baby"

STOCKS IRREGULAR
ON PROFIT TAKING
TR ANSACTIONS ON THE NEW YORK STOCK EXCHANGE 5UUS
New Highs Reached on Re-
covery Before Heavy Re-
aIiZing Sets In.
BY GEORGE T. HUGHES.


NEW YORK, August 23-Stockt
we're turned over in large volume ana
with increased activity today. During
the course of the session new highs on
the recovery were reached, but profit
taking and realizing Cancelled a pars
of the gains and gave the list an irregu.
lar appearance at the close.
Considering the extent of the rise
and the fact that it has had 50 little
support from the news, the market gave
a remarkably good account of itself
A much larger setback than actually
occurred would not have been sur.
prising.
Opening prices were higher, with
turnover of 100000 shares in the first
half hour. The high for volume on
the current movement was 900,000
shares during that period. All the IA
voriteS came out on the tape in large
blocks and the ticker was hard pressed
to keep up with business on the floor.
Brokers complained that because Of
economies they themselves had insti-
tuted cnly short two months ago, the
telephone service was inadequate to
meet the demands upon it. This was
true not only of trading on the Stock
Exchange, but of business over the
counter"
During the first two hours the leaders
were those which had figured mcst
prominently in recent sessions, but later
in the day there was considerable shift
ing about. American Telephone & Tele-
graph crossed lib to a new high on the
movement and shortly afterward West
ern Union had APPOINT rise, due partly
to new buying and partly to short
covering. In the late bear market Tele-
phone and Western Union were regarded
as two of the best sales" on the list.
That opinion has now been revised.
Railroad shares we're in urgent de.
mand, with Atchison the leader,
although it did not record any such vio-
lent advance as had Union Pacific yes
terday. Canadian Pacific, which was
the most active stock on the entire
board Monday made a new high on
the movement by fraction. Stocks Of
the Northwestern roads responded, but
all of these and the rails generally had
to take heavy realizing later in the ses-
sion and all of them lost a part Of the
gains.
Evening star., 1932-08-23

Wholesale prices as measured by the
weekly index of the National Fertilizer
Association during the latest week, lost
a small part of the gain Of the pre-
ceding week During the latest week
the index number declined two frac-
tional points. receding from 62.3 to
62,l. The latest index number is eX-
actly one full point higher than it was
a month ago. 1t is 2l2 points higher
than the record low of 500 reached
on June II, 1892 A year ago the
index number was CTS. There has
therefore, been a decline of only 5.4
points during the latest II months.
During the preceding II months there
