prairie chicken in possession. Such
fines were $40 in most cases and are
expected to promote greater respect
for the statutes on hunting.

Muzetrus pleaded guilty to shooting
four Hungarian cartridges which

Asks Buyers to Refrain
From Taking Advantage
of Delinquent Owners

Lincoln. Neb., Nov - (UP)-
Gov. Charles w. Bryan today ap-
pealed to residents to refuse to bid
on property offered for sale next
Monday by county treasurers to
pay delinquent taxes.
ct want to appeal to all pros
pective buyers of properties offered
for sale to satisfy delinquent tax
claims not to take advantage of
those people who are about to lose
their homes and property by fore
closure and eviction, when the state
and national governments are
making heroic efforts to save
them," Bryan said. He said his ap-
peal was directed particularly to
tax title loan sharks"

explained, is seeking to force the
price of farm products upward and
a group of midwestern states gov
ernors have conferred at Des
Moines, in a further attempt to
find solution to the farm problems
"It is my belief that if property
is not forced to be sold now, in 80
to 60 days better prices will enable
many debators to pay their delin-
quent taxes. "It would be calamity
to the state if all the property on
which taxes are delinquent is sold
Statutes require the sales, but it is
inconceivable that people will GO
there and bid on property of per-
sons who are powerless to save il
because of unfavorable price con-
ditions."
Under statute, persons whose
property is on the delinquent tax
lists have until Monday to pay off
the sum owing and prevent sales.

Dullest Trading For
Very Many Sessions
Early Firmness Gave Way to Losses on Wrong Report
Then Stocks Came Back Again
By MAX BUCKINGHAM
.Inited Press Financial Writer

Tues hAAAANAAA NNAAeCAsI
New York, Nov 1.-UP)-The
price pattern to-day in one of the
weeks.
Early firmness gave way to COM
paratively sharp losses in the after
noon--after wheat had cracked on
reports, later denied, that specula-
tive trading was to be banned
then started climbing back towards
the close. In late dealings losses
were erased and gains of fractions
to points were substituted.
Leaders in flrmness to-day were
metal and repeal stocks. The for
mer profited by reports that some
sort of administration statement
was to be made which would be of
benefit to silver. These reports
could not be traced but metal
shares held gains throughout the
session, even when the selling wave
struck the market in the mid-after-
noon.
There was little in the business
or monetary situation to offer mar
ket incentive. The only burst of ac-
tivity was on the down-side when
tickers got one minute behind floor
transactions. Then trading dried
up and near the close tickets again
were barely moving.
The dollar continued easier in
| foreign exchange trading while the
government gold price was adj
vanced to $32.26, rejecting a fur
ther recession in the gold value of
the dollar. Cotton trading was
steady and rallied to around pre-
vious closing levels after a. decline
of SO cents bale. Wheat finished
with loss of around 2 cents a
bushel, up from earlier lows of
more than 3 cents a bushel.
The late strength came into the
market suddenly. 1t was accom-
panied by no particular furry. Ger
70 De Pasco was one of the active
issues in that final drive jumping
from around SO IA to almost 49,.
u. S. Smelling climbed to around
100 for more than points gain.
American Smelling and others in
the metals group, particularly those
related to silver, came forward.
National Distillers, after drop
ping to IS "a, climbed back to 80
for 2 1-2 point gain. U. S. Indus
trial Alcohol showed more than 3
points gain at So. These gains in
this division were attributed to ad-
vices from Washington that Presi.
dent Roosevelt favored no relaxa-
ton of the liquor import ban prior
to repeal of the 18th Amendment.
Strength in the silver benefitting
stocks and repeal issues brought q
better tone into the general list.
