news occaSioned little surprise
marketwise and was virtually
ignored by the trading element.
Auburn Off Sharply
Auburn was the outstanding
feature today as steady stream
of selling sent the stock down
more than 3 points to a new all
time low. The consistent liquida-
ton of the issue was precipitated
by the recent commission of the
dividend. other motor shares,
including General Motors and
Chrysler, however, were quiet
and fractionally under yester-
days close.
United States Steel and the
other steel shares opened slightly
under their previous closingS.
Telephone Declines
A more than 3 point decline
in American Telephone unsettled
the utility shares somewhat. The
decline in American Telephone
was surprising since it was not
accompanied by any news to &C.
count for the selling.
The railroad shares were in
clined to work irregularly lower
under the leadership of Union
Pacific and Southern Pacific.
Aviation, speciality and chemi-
cal shares were firmer after
early hesitancy.
Trading was dull and turnover
declined appreciably.

His taut cheeks, Redeemed in

Soviet Not Certain
Today the Russians are only

the Poles might take their new

The Russians remember that

The famous Rosenberg plan
was for Germany to expand east

and make it a dependency Of
Berlin.
But the Poles refuse to take

It is true that Poland and the

Hitler came to power on a pro-

Immediately the basis Of Soviet

The relations between the Red
