Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, September S.-After
overnight orders had been executed the
bond market today settled down to
quiet affair, with buyers playing
cautious hand and taking nothing in
the form Of o speculation unless con-
cessions were granted.
During the morning the volume of
dealings was about on level with yes
terday's. which does not imply even
normal trading interest.
The falsity Of yesterdays report about
. great accelleration in the Federal Re-
serves rate of buying In the Govern
ment security market was proved BY
publication Of the weekly report Of the
system. It was shown that Reserve
takings Of Government bonds, notes
and certificates were slightly above
those Of the previous week and II this
rate Of absorption continues as Q steady
policy, specialists believe that real
shortage of Treasury paper will result.
Retirement Doubtful.
Such q program would augur well for
the success of any refunding program
undertaken by the Treasury in connec-
ton with the retirement Of part Of the
Liberty fourth 4l4s. It now seems TO
be generally conceded that nothing will
be done about retiring the first Liberty
4Hs in December.
The buying Of Treasury bonds gath
cred force as the session progressed.
sending First Liberty 414s and Treasury
3As to new record highs All others
in this group topped yesterdays best
prices.
Gilt-edged corporate issues In the
afternoon did not get the kind OF sup
port to which they have been accus-
toned. Declines ranging from minor
fractions to as much IS . point were
recorded In Pennsylvania IS of 1864.

Prices Gain Ut Close.
At the same time bids were moved
down on most second-grade rails SO
that sellers were forced to take l to
points less than they could have OBJ
tanned at yesterdays close. Canadian
Pacific bonds were weak, along with
those OF Southern Pacific, Erie, South
ern Railway, Illinois Central, st. Paul.
Baltimore & Ohio, Allegheny and
American & Foreign Power. Most Of |
these improved in the late trading, but
were still Oh on the day at the close. |
Foreign bonds also had q late rally, |
with German 51as leading. British
61,s on the other hand were heavy.

Doug Fairbanks in Garden Role
Morton DOwney Featured
 in Companion Picture

While Parachute Jumper, a Warner Bros. picture which comes to the New Garden theater Sunday and Monday stars Douglas Fair banks, Jr, 1t could well be placed in the all-star class. For Fair banks is supported by three play CTS who have had stellar roles. Bette Davis has stellar qualifica- tions in the picture field, while Leo Carrillo and Frank McHugh have both been stage stars, and have played leading roles on the screen. There also are an unusual number of strong featured players, includ- ing Claire Dodd, Sheila Terry, Har- old Huber, Thomas D. Jackson, George Pat Collins, Harold Healy and Frederick Mus1er. The pic- ture is romantically adventurous with strong tang of wise-crack- ing humor, punctuated with thrills. It has the fast moving satirical style for which Rian James, the author, an erstwfile New York columnist, Is noted. Even it's TO- nance Is tinged with rollicking fun. The story details the excit- ing adventures of the two marine corps air pilots lin Nicaragua, thence to New York, where they are innocentIy involved in snug gling contraband from the Can- adian border. This brings in many spectacular air stunts, including battles in the clouds, airplane chases and parachute jumps. Seven pilots of national reputation take part in the air, stunting, in addi- tion to the leading characters in the cast. The picture>was adapted for the screen by John Francis Larkin and directed by Alfred D.. Green, who handled the meg aphone for Fairbanks in "It's Tough to be Famous" and Union Depot.
 The companion feature -~' is Mothers Boy" with Morton Downey, Broadway's golden voiced tenor supported by Helen Chand- Ter and Beryl Mercer. Also on the bill are a number of splendid short subjects. Extra attractions are Auction Circus on Thursday night and. Country Store on Satur. day night.
