New York Stocks
By ELMER c. WALLER
United Press Financial Editor

NEW YORK, Oct. 1.-THE stock
market went through a nerve
wracking session, plunging back
and forth. Then it suddenly stea-
died and climbed to excellent gains
for the day.
The share market took its cue
from grains. AS cereals weakened,
so moved stocks. AS grains
strengthened, stocks upped on plus
signs. Grains finally closed up the
maximum amount permitted-5
cents in the case of wheat-and this
brought the final show of strength
in stocks which resulted in gains
of more than points. Many of the
sharp losses of yesterday were COM
pletely erased by todays market.
Bonds were irregular with for
eign obligations showing strength
on possibility of an early stragiht-
ening out of the European situa-
ton. Cotton maintained a strong
tone throughout the day while for
eign exchange trading was more
dignified, with fluctuations held to
narrow limits.
Trading picked up in volume. 1t
was noticeable that the bulk of
trading, however, was in 100 and
200 share blocks.
Plunging tactics of the market
can be seen in a few of the more
active leaders National Distillers
hit low of 89h and then came
back to around 81. U. S. Steel fell

cal, the same in U. S. Industrial
alcohol and about an 8 point
range in U. S. smelling.
Rails came back under leader
ship of New York Central and Un-
ion Pacific, each advancing about

EMBARGO UPON
WHEAT FROM
NORTH DAKOTA

BISMARCK, N. D., Oct. II. U.P)
Governor WifIiam LANCER, North
Dakota's two-fisted executive, to-
day clamped down an unprecedent-
ed embargo impounding the states
60,000,000 bushels of wheat within
its borders in a dramatic effort to
force immediate federal action to
help the farmer.
The embargo becomes effective
at midnight tonight and continues
until revoked"
AS grain prices crashed down.
ward in fear of ,Europe's rising
war talk, LANCER called upon his
fellow-executives of agricultural
states of the west to enact SINH
lar embargoes and force the fed
eral government to act.
The governor had no hope that
by halting grain shipments out OF
North Dakota he would immediate
ly raise the price of wheat. He
launched the move in hope he
could spur federal authorities to
act quickly to relieve the economic
distress of the farmer.
The governor took his bold step
on day that saw grain prices con-
tinue the fall which started last
week and which was halted on the
Chicago board of trade only by the
automatic action of the pegged min
imum prices established after last
July'S disastrous breaks.
Prices have been demoralized for
several days as result of uncer-
tainty over the administrations
dollar stabiliZation plans and the
tense European situation.
The governor promised full mill
tary action to enforce the decree
but doubted whether this would be
necessary.

HULSE TALKS
ON SALES TAX
AT LIONS CLUB

Assemblyman Ben Hulse was
speaker today at the regular meet
ing of the Lions club, talking on
the sales tax as it is now in oper-
alton. The tax has already effect
ed a lowering of Ell Centros tax
by $1.29 a hundred.
Movements are on foot through
out the state for the repeal of the
sales tax, but If these movements
should be successful California
schools will close January l, 1884
and will not reopen until Decem-
Der, 1885, because the state will not
be able to levy any taxes with which
to carry on the schools until the
following August.
The schools of the state now cost
the average family between $18 and
$40 a year in taxes, according to
Hulse.
California municipal and coun-
ty bonds have increased 25 per
cent in market value since the tax
has been in effect because of the re-
lief of real estate IRON portion of
its grinding burden of tax. During
the last few years 100000 owners
of real property in California have
been supporting the school system

Action taken by the FL Centre

matter. At the suggestion of w.
A. Scheniman, chairman of the
chamber dCiry committee, letters
have been sent to every county
seat in the state of California by
the FL Centro chamber presenting
a plan whereby the distressed con-
dition of the dairy industry can
be relieved and this industry, one
of the most important in the
United States, can be re-estab-
lished
Scheniman. who states that
probably nothing would more eff
fectively improve business condi-
tionS and brins about the economic
recovery of the country than the
relief of the dairy industry, has
presented a plan to the individual
counties of California which in
cludeS five recommendations First
as a temporary aid, that sufficient
butter be purchased with federal
funds to relieve the present de-
pressed market condition. Second,
that diseased and border COWS be
purchased and removed from pro-
duction in sufficient number to in
sure no immediate replacement of
surplus. Third, that the raising of
heifer calves beyond the average of
six months be restricted to a per-
centage below the normal heifer
increase. Fourth, that more Strin-
gent restriction be placed upon the
importation and sale of butter sub
Stitutes. Fifth, that immediate
funds required for such a program
be secured from the agricultural
appropriation, augmented by a
processing tax on the entire milk
production of the country regard
less of disposition.
The Ell Centro chamber has asked
that the chamber in each. county

converse tions, whose tenor was not
revealed.
If the disarmament conference
adjourned until after November
II, the time would be spent in
drafting the new Simon eight year
disarmament plan as a basis of ne
gotiation.
1t was reported here that Ger
many would not notify the League
of Nations of the withdrawal de-
cision until after the election and
the plebiscite in which the people
will be asked to support the gov
ernment.
Decision Deliberately Made
If negotiations begin successful
ly it might never prove necessary
to send notification. So far Ger
many has withdrawn officially only
from the disarmament conference.
Ut was reported authoritatively
today that Germany's decision to
leave the league and the confer
ence was reached three days before
announcement was made Saturday
and hence before the events sup
posed to have caused it.
The news increased materially
the gravity of the disarmament
deadlock in that it revealed the
German decision was reached after
mature deliberation over a long
series of events which convinced the
Hitler government there was more
to gain outside formal internation-
al councils than in.
At the same time it pointed clear
ly to one apparent path from the
present impasse-a carefully nur-
tured rapproachment with Ger
many that will offer them some
hope, if they show good will, of see
ing Europe's gigantic war machine
reduced in size.
