SURVEY FLOUTS
PANACEAS

With business in an obvious
Stalemate, what is needed is some
impulse to start action. states the
Guaranty Trust Company of
New York in the current issue of
The Guaranty Survey, it's review
of business and financial condi-
tions in the United States and
abroad, published today. 1t
comments:
"PanaceaS and quack RENE
dies of all sorts are being Of
fered on every hand. The most
oft recurring suggestion is that
initiation of some sort must be
reOsrted to to bring revival.
For this there are many diff
ferent suggestions, equally un-
sound and unwOrkable, but the
human inclination to turn to
some false remedy for treat
ment of it's ills reaches its
climax after all long periods of
depression, and apparently his
tory is repeating itself in that
particular at present. In the
minds of many students the pa
rade of panaceas may we'll
mark the climax of the depreS-
SiOn."

PLANTING NEWS
N|PS COTTON
VALUES

NEW YORK, Jan. 80 UN.SO.
A weakened tone predominated
in the cotton ring today with
futures recording moderate losses.
Chiefly responsible for the de.
cline was an increase in South.
ern and hedge selling and re-
newed liquidation of March con.
tracts by scattered sources.
There was a light demand
from spot firms and the trade,
but the volume was insufficient
to offset the fairly heavy selling
which had accumulated over the
weekend.
Reports from the South con.
tinue to indicate a large cotton
acreage this season and there
were dispatches stating that the
acreage in West Texas probably
would be larger.
Midday quotations were off
to 7 points, with March off
at 604, May off 7 at SIT, July
off 7 at $50, October off 7 at
$40, and December off 7 at 6.62.

F. w. Woolworth Company failed

DOLLAR SHOWS
STRONG TONE

NEW YORK, Jan. 80 GN.S0.
The dollar presented a generally
strong tone against the major
European currencies today.
German marks moved down
slightly against the dollar, rul-
ing .OO2 of a cent lower at 23.79,
but showing no acute weakness
in the face of the news that
Adolph Hitler had become chan
cellor.
British sterling moved up Is
of a cent to $3.39H. Francs,
though, sold down .00A of a
cent to 1904 cents in quiet
trading.
The rest of the foreign ex-
change list was mixed with lire
and Swiss francs unchanged,
while belgaS were off slightly.
Guilders were strong and frac-
tionally above their previous
close.

WOBBLE
IN CAUTIOUS
TRADING
BY LESLIE GOULD

NEW YORK, Jan. 80 G.N.S0.
The stock market went stagnant
today with the list moving in an
extremely narrow range.
All attention was centered on
U. S. Steel preferred on the in
timation that the ST dividend
would be revised tomorrow. The
stock opened fractionally lower,
carrying the common down also,
and they firmed up early in the
second hour.
Operations Improve
A further rise in steel opera
tionS for the week. the fourth
since the turn Of the year, had
little influence.
With the expected selling in
steel preferred failing to mate
rialize, the whole list firmed up.
Trading, however, continued very
quiet.
Uncertainties in the foreign
situation helped restrict specu-
lative activity. Appointment of
Hitler as German chancellor was
offset by the naming of Won
Papen as chief aide and helped
stem the decline in German
obligations. Cabinet difficulties
continued in France following
the fall of Bancour.
WOOIwOrth Net Steps
Woolworth's annual report
showed 1882 net under the 8240
dividend, but the stock dipped
only fractionally.
Rails firmed up after early
irregularity, strength in Della
ware & Hudson supporting the
group. Tobacco stocks were un-
der further pressure. Chrysler
