quotable change, but the market
was slow. Demand was weak for
feeders.
The sheep market was steady to
strong but generally slow, with re-
ceipts of 1000.

regular quarterly dividend Of so
cents on the common stock, both
payable December Is to stock Of
record November 20.

The Washington times., 1933-11-21

There is not much selling pres
sure. There is not much buying.
The small gain in prices may in
dicate that the buying is still
somewhat "better" than the sell
ing, but prices have again fallen
a little lower in comparison with
asked" quotations, and I feel
that buying has become less con-
fident than a week ago. The
market is so "thin" that it takes
relatively little buying or selling
to cause moves. Brokers loans
have continued to fall and public
participation is so slight that
there is no momentum on the
moves.
Factors on Bull Side
You can say On the bull side
that the chief activity is in the
stocks which rise. Also the aver
ages may have consolidated their
position slightly above an impor-
tant resistance level.
Looking further back, you can
say that the liquidation Of the
summer mArk-up seems to have
been we'll completed in October,
and that the secondary reaction
which ended october 81 failed to
go through.
There is also fairly good talk
around the Street that Washing
ton will not frOwn upon cOnServa,
tive operations based on the merit
of stock.
On the bear side, one notes that
on Friday the market shows inabil
ity to go through on the up side.

District Insurance
Writings Hold Well

Although less life insurance was
written in Washington during Oc-
tober than in the same month
last year, the percentage of loss
here was less than that for the
country as a whole, according to
the Life Insurance Sales Re-
search Bureau of Hartford.
South Carolina led the Fifth
Federal Reserve District as well
as for the country as a whole
with a gain Of % per cent over
last year. A light loss was regis
tered by Virginia and Maryland.

CURB DEALINGS
ACTIVE, BUT
MIXED

NEW YORK, Nov. 81 GNS).
The Curb Market displayed a
highly irregular tone in continued
active dealings today, with the
appearance of profit-taaking pres
sure offsetting the further adj
vanceS recorded in selected issues.
Utilities Irregular
Utilities were irregular higher.
There was little change in the
low priced issues, while a better
tone appeared in the senior claS-
Sification.
Metal shares we're spotty, with
Newmont a strong spot, while
Wright Hargreaves and Hollinger
both dropped below previous clos
ingS.
Aluminium was a reactionary
feature in the Specialties.
Changes in the more active in
duStrialS were limited to frac-
tional proportions.
Standard of Ohio dropped back
rather easily in a mixed oil
group, but Gulf, Humble, and
Standard Of Indiana managed to
top previous closing levels by a
small margin.
Alcohol Sluggish
Alcohol shares were sluggish,
with a nominal upturn in Dis
tillers, Ltd, offet by moderate de-
clines in Canadian Industrial AL
cohol A, Distillers, Seagrams and
Hiram Walker.
The Cities Service list held
within a narrow trading area.
Bonds were generally stronger.

CLOTH MARKET QUIET

NEW YORK, Nov. 81 G.N.SO.
The coarse yarn cloths market
continued quiet today, althugh
there was some improvement in
inquiry, and prices were generally
unchanged.
The improved inquiry was said
to reflect more general realiza-
ton on the part of buyers of
the growing danger of initiation
ary effects upon raw cotton of
the current monetary policy.

Stock market averages closed
last week about one point higher
than a week ago. This was en-
tirely due to a one-day shove on
Thursday. The strength on that
day came from the initiation mo-
tive, with bonds crashing to low
levels as capital fled from the
dollar.

SHARKEY MUST
Be SERIOUS,
SAYS GENE
By DAVIS J. WALSH

NEW YORK, May 24.-Max
Schmeling isn't a bum. He's .
pretty good fighter who, however,
is really effective only against
"the short-armed kind who come
running in" Baer comes running
in but he isn't the short-armed
kind. He's "a tough egg" and
has the proverbial tough mans
chance, which is always fair and
often good.
It's Mr.. Tunney, of the feudal
aristocracy, broadcasting. Hes
discussing for the moment the
Schmeling-B heavyweight meet
ing of June 8, discussing it as
Mr.. Tunney, the prize fighter,
never would think of discussing
anything. Words of one syllable,
short, middle class words, inc1ud-
ing "bums," tough eggs" and
the "short-armed kind" Can it
be that Mr.. Tunney has been so
unfair as to go and join up with
the rest of us commonerS? It's
getting so thare's no privacy
nowadays.
But, hold! Mr.. Tunney wishes
to resume, this time on the sub
ject of the Sharkey-Carnera
heavyweight championship fight
later in June. Thus:
Camera is nobody's fool. He
has at least an even chance.
Sharkey should train for this
fight as though he we're training
for Dempsey all over again. If
he isn't absolutely right" he'll
lose.
"When you see him, tell him
to take no chances on not being
ready" he said, earnestly. Gar
nera hasn't a single punch in
his bag of tricks. But, de-
fensively, he's fOOlproOf. He
smOtherS punches, rides well
with others and knows how to
take care of himself. I GER
tainly hope Sharkey is taking
this fight seriously. 1t will be
too late to turn serious after he
gets inside the ring with this
man."
1t was pointed out at this juno.
ture that comparative styles, as
demonstrated in the frs Sharkey-
Carnera figh, indicated that
Sharkey should win out Of his
crouch, owing to the other mans
great height. Mr.. Tunney there
upon made what seemed to be a
very bright observation.
"Sharkey," said he, "is two
years older now. And" mean.
ingly, "Carnera was two years
younger then"
He meant to infer that Sharkey
has gone back and Carnera has
come on by exactly the same
distance, namely, two years.

and the Griffs will either be up
in the race or way down by the
time they trek to foreign lands
again.
Naturally it is hoped that Man
ager Cronin's boys will be able
to prosper in the remaining
games scheduled during this cur
rent home stand-that a con-
sistent brand of winning baseball
will be hit and that both the
pitchers and hitters will click
to the highest degree, in order
that every team in the race will
perk up and say, yep, folks,
that's the team to beat for the
flag, the Griffmen."
It isn't impossible for the
Griffs to reach these heights
as the team possesses the punch
and ability to win if only "every-
thing" will begin to respond at
one time.
Snag Is Hit
Before the Detroit Tigers came
to town the general idea was
that the Griffs would finally hit
their stride and win a few games
in a row because the Tigers were
going so poorly and were not
getting the hitting or the pitch
ing to put up any sort Of pow
erful fight.
But a Snag was struck in the
person of Fred Marberry yester-
day as he pitched like he's seldom
pitched before with the result
the Tigers walked off the field
with a decisive to / victory
under their belts-a victory which
marked only their second since
leaving Detroit on this current
invasion of the East.
The Griffs? Well, they just
couldn't connect with Marherry
out there yesterday while their
pitching from Walter Stewart,
crack southpaw, was far from
what it should have been, the
Tigers slamming the veteran off
the mound in the third inning and
winning right there as things
finally turned out.
Marberry gave up but three
hits all told and would have
scored a shutout victory had not
he allowed Myer and Cronin to
bunch their singles in the fourth.
In this frame he also walked
Manush, but after Cronin singled
Myer across with a run, he tight
ened up by tanning Dave Harris
and getting" Kuhel on fly
to Walker.
Stewart Chased
A single by Fox, a double by
Gehringer and a triple by Stone
