hard chairs of our hosts pro-

The coroner's car went away

hung a crepe streamer on a
pillar of the veranda. A belated
newspaper photographer took
pictures of the exterior of the

The manager of the garage
was a friendly young chap. He
was very much concerned over
the tragedy. He knew Mr.. Holt,
he said, and liked him. He
offered to turn his whole estab-

told him that occasional access

the use of a chair apiece for us

New York, Jan.3.-tRj-The stock
market put its best foot forward at
the start Of the New Year Tuesday
but was unable to make Roadway
against a sluggish current Of selling.
After opening moderately higher,
the list slid off during the morning.
Prices stiffened q little after midday
but showed scant recuperative power.
Traders generally remained apathetic.
The list drifted slowly lower Is
trading progressed and closed with
numerous losses Of fractions to more
than q point. The final tone was
slightly heavy. The turnover was only
about half q million shares, or a third
of the volume Of the first day OF 1882.
Losses of point or SO appeared IN
such issues as Allied Chemical. Amer
lean Telephone, Case, Texas Corp.
United Aircraft, and others. THESE
losses were reduced to narrow frac-
tions in several instances, however,
and declines of q point or 50 IN Union
Pacific and u. s. Steel were fully re-
gained. The announced reduction IN
cigaret prices brought short covering
into the tobaccos and American TO-
bacco "B" and Liggett g. Myers b

American aviation was turned over IN
volume at fractionally higher prices.

Chicago, Jan. 3.-{R-Influenced
by liberal curtailment Of the United

rather free selling on advances.
Liverpool wheat quotations closed

liveries would not be pressed for sale
despite the fact that an agreement to
hold the line off the market had ex-
pired Jan. l. Consequent price ad-
vances here were helped simultane-
ously by Liverpool dispatches that
world shipments Of wheat were too
small, and by . report that drought in

Cold weather forecasts that indi-
Gated domestic winter wheat would
be caught without snow protection
led to considerable buying. Bulls put
stress, too. on Argentina reports that
farmers In several regions were refus-
Ing to harvest crops as prices would
not cover the cost. It was noted that
Argentina shippers offerings abroad
were much firmer. Corn and oats
paralleled the course Of wheat prices.

Hoover Strikes Out
At Foes in Congress

Washington, Jan. 3.-(R-Presi-
dent Hoover Tuesday hit out at con-
gressional opposition to his plans for
regrouping governmental agencies,
saying In q statement that unless
congress keeps its hands off now
or gives larger powers to President
elect Roosevelt, any reorganization
will be merely make believe"
Calling in newspapermen for his
first press conference since Septem-
Der Is, Hoover said he considered
the proposals of Democratic lead
ers in congress to stop the reorgan-
ization" to be "a backward STEP"
The chief executive added that he
believed proposals on Capitol Hill Ito
transfer the job reorganization to my
successor" were simply "a device" by
which his plans could be defeated.
The president recently sent a Spe-
cial message to congress proposing
regrouping Of more than 50 federal
agencies and commissions into nine
divisions, along with the abolition Of
some.
