OM|TS DIVIDEND
Cancellation of Quarterly
Payment Surprises
Wall Street.
BY ELMER G. WALLER
United Press Financial Editor

NEW YORK, June 11.-Omission
of the quarterly dividend of so cents
by Auburn Automobile Company
was a complete surprise to the stock
market today. Auburn promptly
broke 515 points to 81, new low
for the year, and the entire list
eased to fractional losses.
Selling in Auburn dried up before
the end of the third hour, however,
and the issue rallied fractionally
from the low The whole market
steadied and held at levels frac-
tons to a point under Saturdays
close.
Automobile issues were the weak
spots along with Auburn, while
steel issues we're steady at small
declines. Chrysler lost point and
others fractions to a point. Re
auctions of prices of automobiles
announced by several companies
were seen as admission sales were
not up to expectations.
Rails were off as much as a point.
Coppers and other mining issues
were firm. Utilities were down
small amounts. Industrials gen.
orally we're easier. Trading contin-
ued light in the afternoon.

GRAIN MARKET
FLUCTUATESIN
2-CENT RANCE
Heavy ChinCh Bug Damage
Reported in Indiana
and Illinois.
BY HARTMAN w. NICHOLS
United Press staff Correspondent

CHICAGO, June 11.-Conflicting
influences brought about wild price
fluctuations in grains on the Chi
cago Board of Trade today.
Wheat finished q cent higher to
3S cent lower, corn was up y to
q cent, and oats were Is cent lower
Is cent higher.
With outside trade only fair, there
was support on the sharp recessions
and pressure on the upturns
throughout the session. Both corn
and wheat moved within a 2-cent
range.
Parts of the Ohio valley received
rains over the weekend but there
was relatively little precipitation in
the northwest and west.
Pit sentiment was somewhat
mixed. Chinch bug reports came
thick and fast from Illinois points
and also were declared to have
caused damage in Indiana. The
pests are said to be of sufficient
numbers in some sections to prove a,
material factor in curtailing produc-
ton of small grains.
On the other hand, crop comment
from the northwest suggested rains
so far has brought out less i'm
provement than was at first be-
lieved. A demand was reported for
forage seeds of all kinds to be used
as an emergency crop to provide
necessary livestock roughage this
winter.
Winnipeg wheat showed fair
strength with the official detailed
report Hkening conditions in the
western provinces to those which
prevailed in 1881. Liverpool closed
% to 7s cent lower.
A steady reduction in the domes-
tic visible supply of wheat, corn and
otaS again was shown, with aggre-
gate supplies of corn and oats only
slightly in excess of those a year
ago.
Provisions were higher early in
sympathy with hogs but later SELL
ing developed and prices sagged.

Spring Production Greater
Than Consumption,
Survey Shows.
BY RICHARD L. GRIDLEY
United Press Financial Writer


WASHINGTON, June 11.-Need
for increased public buying power
to stimulate further business gains
was reported today by the American
Federation of Labor as the depart
ment of commerce noted some"
irregularity in business after the
spring rise.
The labor federation in its
monthly survey said that produc-
ton this spring again outstripped
buying power of the public but not
as greatly as year ago when an
abortive rise in bushes collapsed
in July.
The commerce department in it's
survey of current business reported
that despite a further rise in April
in employment and pay rolls, manu-
featuring expansion was checked
during day.
Decline Is Expected
The federation survey reported
that business observers generally
feel that a decline slightly more
than seasonal may be expected and
that it will last until late summer. %
Activity this spring." it con-
tinued, "was stimulated by govern
ment expenditures and a rise in
business confidence. The admins
tration hoped that private initiative
in business would replace govern
ment bolstering.
ut is clear, with the end of spring
activity, however, that business is
not yet ready to go ahead on its own
and must still depend on govern
ment funds"
The federation estimated that
current unemployment of 1866, 1000
is concentrated durable goods in
dustries.
March Employment Up
1t estimated those laid off since
1929 in durable goods industries al
100000; in building, 100000 and
in mines $4,000. If these persons
went to work, the federation eSti-
mated that 100000 in service ano
transportation" industries and AGO.
600 in consumers goods industries
would also return to work.
Substantial gains in employment
and pay rolls, however, we're re-
ported between mid March and mid
April by the department of COM
merce.
THE bureau of labor statistics
indexes" it said show increases OF
1.9 per cent in employment and 39
per cent in pay rolls during the
month. For the twelve months
ending in April employment moved
upward in eight months and de-
clined in four months, the net gain
amounting to 81 per cent.
