CHICAGO, March 24.-Extreme
dullneSS still held the grain mar
ket on the Board of Trade yester-
day. Close observers said yesterday
session was one of the most stag
nant in many week
Wheat finished Is to Il cent
lower, corn was % cent lower and
oats were u to Il cent lower.
Because there was no particular
incentive to buy, mild wave of
selling overlook the market and
wheat prices averaged slightly lower
for the day. Uncertainty regarding
the restless condition of industry
was given as one of the main in
fluences in checking interest and
traders whiled away their time,
nearly vacating the pits.
Winnipeg wheat was quiet
throughout the day and prices were
little changed from yesterdays fin
ish. Liverpool closed Is to % cent
higher with less pressure from Ar
gentine in evidence.
The shipping demand for corn
was slow and the yellow cereal held
dull. The new Argentine crop was
reported as conditioning slowly, but
the demand for the cash grain
abroad was said to be somewhat less
active.

NEW YORK, March 24-There
was a dreary five-hour session on
the stock market yesterday in which
trading reached a new low for the
present period of uncertainty and
stock prices foundered in an ire
gular manner.
The days total volume of trading
was well under a million shares.
There was no price trend. Alcohols
had little strength for period
and there was some relatively good
buying in the lower priced stocks.
But generally the market Just
drifted and even the excellent
cigarette production figures for
January and February-a new high
for the combined months-failed to
install any interest in the tobacco
group where prices were mixed in
fractional ranges.
Commodity markets operated the
same way. United States govern
ment bonds, however, became a lit
tie more active in late trading and
pulled ahead after heavineSs in
early trading. Silver futures were
slightly firmer in dull trading.
On the Stock Exchange the in
dustrial list was mixed. United
Sattes Steel declined IS, to 81.
Chrysler was fractionally higher at
So and General Motors was slightly
easier at around 1914. In late trad
ing the Aircraft stocks hrmed up,
although trading was not heavy,
with Curtiss Wright A hitting new
1884 high of 1138, for a "a gain;
Douglas advancing 38, to 1854;
United Aircraft gaining u, to Is,
and Wright Aero jumping 3 points,
to So.
Mining issues showed a little late
strength, United States Smelling
gaining fractionally to 100, and Nc
Intyre Porcupine touching a new
1884 high at 46A, for a fractional
gain. Rails were mixed with New
York Central off p, at 355s. and
Pennsylvania up 3S, at 1875.
Sales yesterday we're the lightest
for a f1ve-hour session since Jan. g.,
totaling 100000 shares. There were
100000 shares Thursday. Curb
sales were 10000 shares against
$4,000 shares Thursday.
Dow-Jones preliminary averages
showed industrial, $3.50, off 0.74,
railroad ALSO, off 0.10; utility 26.05,
off OIL.

HOLLYWOOD. March "a
IL Hi pop!"
Once year, on Fathers day,
that's the greeting accorded 20
year-old Lu Anne Meredith, GER
tain to be named one of the
Wampas Baby Stars for 1884.
Her father having left them
several years ago, LII Anne has
taken it upon herself to support
her mother, brother and two sis
tiers. Hence the greeting given to
her every Fathers day along with
little gift as an acknoldg-
ment that she is the head of the
family.
That probably accounts for
Miss Meredith's worldly manner.
Since she was II she has Shout
dered all responsibilities of her
family.
It's been a tough job at times,
because the world isn't easy on
young girls, even though they
have big blue eyes and beautiful
blond hair. But she never quits
smiling and battling.
I'D like to get a real break,
L just to see how it would seem
to smile out of the other side OF
my mouth she laughs.
Lu Anne's experience to date
has been largely on the stage,
where she got her start at the
age of Is with the Fannie Brice
Revue in Los Angeles.
After that she went on the road
with a Fanchon and Marco pro-
logue unit, following that with an
extended appearance at Warner
Brothers theater here.
The young actress first big
break came when she went to
Broadway to appear in Fifty
Million Frenchmen." There she
was given a chance and proved
her ability as an actress.
Betty Compton, now Mrs. jim
my Walker, who was playing one
of the leading roles, suddenly was
taken ill., On three hours notice,
Lu Anne was showed into her part
and carried it off with flying
cOlorS.
HER next step was into New
4 L Workers" and following that
she went into the Ziegfeld Fol-
lies, making such a hit that she
was cast in a later Ziegfeld show,
Hot Cha"
Just before the holidays, de-
cidec that 1 simply had to come
out here and spend few weeks
with my family" Lu Anne says.
AND when I got here I didn't
want to go back to New York
again.
Il heard that Harold Lloyd
wanted some dancers and singers
for a night club sequence in
Cats Paw, so I applied for a job"
1T was her work in Cats Paw"
l. which brought about Lu
Anne's nomination for Wampas
Baby Star honors. She was so
outstanding that Mr. Lloyd added
considerable to her part. And he
predicts that she will do some very
good things on the screen.
Next: Helen Cohan, who hopes
to make the name of COhan as
famous on the screen as it is on
the stage.

Sentimental Reasons Prompt

AINTREE, England, March "a
Many indications of a reconciliation
between Douglas Fairbanks and
Mary Pickford were supported by
the motion picture actor yesterday
when he bet on Lone Eagle II in
the Grand National steeplechase.
Fairbanks today said he had
backed Lone Eagle in the race for
ten pounds about SD for sentt-

That was because Mary once
gave me horse by that name. he

Whitney Criticism of New

IT was to be expected that Rich

find fault with the new Fletcher
Rayburn bill to regulate stock ex-
changes throughout the country.
The revised bill seeks to reduce
speculation to the minimum, and,
quite naturally, the leading stock

it would result in stronger bust
ness and security foundation. The
general public would seem to be
stringing along with the admins
tratiOn also.
From the standpoint of the
brokers, speculation is desirable. 1t
makes for a larger turnover OF
stocks and, consequently, additional
commissions. And since Mr.. Whit
ney is representing the brokers, he
can not be criticised for speaking
in their behalf. In fact, Mr.. Whit
ney is a broker himself, and his firm
would suffer along with the others
in the loss of commissions.
II
XXLHAT the country should de-
w eide upon is whether specu-
lation is necessary to the proper
functions of the exchanges and to
business. No one will question the
fact that industry is aided mate
rally in securing long-term capital
when the market is active and when
the public is participating normally
in the market, but it may be that
the cost of this capital is too great
for industry to bear if speculation,
with it's consequent dangers, is per-
mitted to flourish unrestricted.
Certainly speculation ran wild in
the last bull market, and it is obvi-
Gus that all, even the brokers, have
suffered as a result. That it should
not be allowed to happen again is
generally conceded. The point to
determine, if possible, is just how
severe the brakes should be to keep
trading in check and at the same
time conserve the better features
of the exchanges facilities.
