STOCKS ARE LOWER
At SHORT SESSION
Utilities Prove ConspiCuouSIy
Weak, With Several New
Lows Recorded.
BY CLAUDE A. JAEGER,
Aksocisted Press Financial Editor.

NEW YORK, January with many
Of Wall Streets most active traders en-
Toying a long week end holiday, the
stock market drifted lower in the new
years first session today with a num-
Der Of the leading stocks declining TO
points
Trading approximated 100000 shares
and there was no particular force to
selling. Sharp declines in prices were
attributed in brokerage circles more to
spathetic buying during the abbreviated
holiday session than to pressure of SELL
ing. Railroad stocks showed better re-
siStance than industrials, which react
ed under leadership of United States
Steel, which gave way 2 points or so.
AS a group, the utilities showed con-
siderable weakness. Today's reports
produced little news beyond announce
ment that receivers had been appointed
for the 5000, 900, 900 American Common
wealths Power Corporation, a major
utility holding corporation. American
Telephone, Peoples Gas and several
other utilities were down to over 4
points Western Union sold off about
3 points.
American Can reacted to new low,
losses Of 3 or more points occurred in
Du Pont Allied Chemical, Eastman
Kodak and Macy. Case Threshing Ma
chine was relatively steady, selling
about a point below its Thursday levels.
Wall Street was again disposed to re-
gard the railroad financial outlook as
moderately encouraging. Statements by
several executives lent encouragement
to belief that better operating conditions
would result from prospective wage and
rate readiustments. Atchison was an
exception to the carrier list, declining
2 points or so, but New York Central,
Chesapeake & Ohio. New Haven and
Pennsylvania were bought in sufficient
volume to arrest their declines within
q point or so of their Thursday prices.

build up a high degree of liquidity in
banking assets, that were an influence
this week are now removed. The test
from now on will be given by such fac
tors as are described above. During two
years of almost continuous liquidation
the artificial values in all classes of Sc
curities have been eliminated. Today
market values underestimate earning
power and equities and give little con-
sideration to return on capital.
1t is increasingly evident that just as
agricultural products and manufactured
articles were created well in excess OF
demand in the years preceding 1880, so
there was then an overproduction Of
common stocks and bonds. One Of the
ways in which this may have TO be
corrected Is through the scaling down
of debts and possibly a certain amount
of reputation, here as well as abroad.
The carrying charges on all the public
improvements that have been made in
the past decade have become too heavy
for the taxpayer to bear. 1t may also
come about that those who advocate
cheapening the dollar will have their
way, though this is not necessary
through any weakness in the American
credit structure and can only take place
by legislative enactment. When we con-
slider that there was, during 1881, an
average decline Of about IS points in
common stocks from the already greatly
reduced average in 1880, compared with
1929, and average shrinkages in corpo-
ration and municipal bonds in the same
period of 90 to 25 points-representing
in all an adjustment to new and pos
sible economic standards involving tens
of billions of dollars-one comes to the
conclusion that already this country
has paid good portion Of the price de-
Of 1t for its excesses and has
discounted most of what may reason
ably be expected to occur.

FARM BOARD HEAD
HOLDS CUTS UNFAIR
Stone Declares U. S. Economy Pro.
gram Should Not Single Out
Agency, but Hit All Alike.

James G. Stone, chairman Of the
Farm Board, characterizes as unfair
the bill to cut salaries of board mem
bers from $4,000 to SO. 800 annually.
The measure approved by the Senate
Clvll service Committee would affect
the Farm Board alone, and that was the
basis OF Stones objection.

tobacco cooperative movements before
he became member of the board, sale

effect, should not single out one bureau
Speaking for myself" he said al
could stand the cut, think. but II
they're going to slash governmental i
salaries, there should be some uni
formity about it,
Stone also objected to a provision of
the bill which would prevent the board
from lending money to co-operatiyes
which pay any officer more than sis. .OO0
o year. E. F Creekmore, head of the
American Cotton Cooperative Associa-
tion, is paid $25. 900 yearly with a bonus
on cotton handled, amounting to

Properly safeguarded unemployment insurance
would constitute definite measure Of security for

BETHESDA BODY
To MEET

A mass meeting, sponsored by
the Bethesda Chamber of Com
merce, at which the location of
the Bethesda Farm Women's
Market will be discussed, will be
held tonight in the county build
ing at Bethesda.
The meeting was called when
it was learned the farm women,
with the help of the home dem
onstration agent. planned to in
corporate and build a permanent
market on Edgemoor Lane.
The citizens association OBJ
jected to it being located there
and protested to the county
commissioners, who turned the
matter over to the Maryland
National Capital Park and Plan
ming Commission.
Starting last year when a few
members of the Montgomery
County Council of Home Dem
onStration Clubs banded together
and decided to sell their pro-
duce and handmade articles, the
market, which is now held on
Leland Street, grew so rapidly
that new quarters soon will be
necessary.
