Auto Production
Continues to Drop

The sharp decline in automo-
bile production from the high
point in March, when United
States and Canadian output, as
reported to the United States
Department of Commerce was
81 91-1O0 per cent of the 12-year
average, continued in September,
when factory sales at 174,451
units were but 81 $500 per cent
of the average for the month,
the lowest percentage reached
this year.
In August, sales were 244,713
units, or 78 82-10O per cent of
the average. The more than sea-
sonal decline was chiefly notable
in passenger car production,
which fell to 1908 units from
242,134 in August. Truck sales
were 46,3S1 against 53,888 in
August.

A moderately firmer tone charac-

Trading, however, was again COM
paratively light.
United States Government is
sues showed a tendency towards
greater firmness following yester-
days reaction. Home owners Loan
IS sold down slightly, while the
2As were unchanged. Treasury
3As, the 3AS, 2.32, and the IS Of
1855, were fractionally higher.
High grade investment rails,
utilities AMI industrials were
steady around their recent highs.
Texas Corp. SIS were unchanged as
were the B-M.TS.
Medium grade rail bonds were
quiet, while speculative issues 60
ing moderately higher included
Chicago and North western con-
vertible 434s and the st. Paul ad-
justments. The Rock Island con-
vertibleS were unchanged.

NEW YORK, Oct. 81 QN.S).
The curb market continued to
fluctuate today within the re-
stricted trading limits which have
characterized its action in the
past few sessions, although a per-
ceptibly firmer tone was evil
denced in the rank and file Of
the list.
BulliSh mid-week trade reviews
encouraged the belief that a rally
might be witnessed before long,
although traders still showed no
disposition to attempt to cali the
turn by adding to present COM
mitments.
Utilities were bolstered by the
extremely favorable weekly power
output figures.
Oils rallied moderately on indi-
cations that the gasoline situa-
ton was taking a turn for the
better.
Gold shares pointed higher.
AlcoholS and investment trusts
marked time around previous clos
ingS in dull dealings. Specialties
showed few significant changes.

in which the American Legion
Post was presented with a modern

Gadsby'S Tavern, historic home of
the local Legion group.
HyattSville will start it's modern

But it is the second title of the
act-providing funds for new
buildings-that interests the land
developer, the man who gives life
to the real estate industry.
Under the provisions Of the
title, as much as 80 per cent of
the value of a property, up to
$4,000, can be borrowed under a
long.term note, and amortized on
a plan similar to that of the
Home Owners Loan Corporation.
It will mean that billions of
dollars, now virtually frozen in
real estate, will be released as
home owners begin to refinance
their homes under the long-term
plan. The money now tied up
will then be available for build
ing of more speculative nature.

n YEW YORK, August THE
M dress rehearsals having
" failed to develop an out
4 standing favorite, the
pick of 3-year -old trotters will
meet in the eighth renewal of
the Hambletonian Stakes at
Goshen August Is with four fast
stepperS, two of them fillieS, rat
ing consideration in the pre-
race distribution of the SAC, 900
purse.
The race will be worth considerably
less than the first year, when Guy
Mckinney won the major share of
nearly $4,000. but the class of con-
tenders probably never has been ex-
celled, not even two years ago, when
the Marchioness lowered the record
for the event to 2:01H.
Muscletone, flying the silks of c. B
Schaeffer of Lexington, KY, and
driven by H. M. (Doc) Parshall OF
Urbana, Ohio, was the first to show
