WHEAT PARLEY
Still At ODDS

The continuance of export
quotas has been approved by
members of the wheat conference,
it is stated in an official report.
The communique indicated that
the conference was unable to
announce a Unanimous" agree
ment which delegates admit is
necessary to make any proposals
effective.
A dispute between Canada and
Argentina over 1934-35 wheat ex-
port quotas was believed to be
no nearer adjustment.
Dodolfo Garcia Ar1as, Argen-
tina's delegates to the world
wheat conference, flew back to-
day from Paris, where he sub
mitted proposals of an American
Canadian-Australian b l o to
Thomas LIE Breton, Argentine
Ambassador to France and former
Secretary of Agriculture.
LIE Breton, who also once was
ambassador to washington, has
been the invisible" chief dele
gate from the Argentine at the
wheat negotiations and there
were strong indications he sent
Garcia AriaS back to London
with a firm mo" as a reply.
Garcia Arias, his usual smile
lacking, hurried into the council
room, where delegates had de-
layed the sessions opening for
20 minutes because of him.
The failure of LIE Breton to
come to any of the meetings here
clouded proSectS of bringing Ar
gentina into an agreement. Sev-
eral delegates said privately they
believed there was no chance to
fix export quotas for at least
another month.

Stock Boom

A boom in the American stock
market which may carry some
shares even above their 1929 prices
is predicted by L. L. B. Angus,
British financial writer, in a pam,
phlet. The Coming American
Boom" The pamphlet has just
been published by Simon &
Schuster. Angus, expressing the
opinion that the Administrations
policies must eventuate in infla.
ton, states in part:
although almost all shares
will rise in America the rubbish
will rise much faster than the
leaders, and industries, with a
bad recent earnings record will
prove more profitable purchases
than the stable industries which
have held up well throughout
the depression.

America from the scientific
point of view of capital appre-

market, rs to so per cent below

SeSSlng a theoretical comeback,

losses; companies in industries.

which will probably be allowed
TO show a big comeback in
profits before they are singled
out for any special taxation. De

EXP PANDS
At HUGE COST

DETROIT, Aug. 81 ON.S0.
Henry Ford's faith in the future
of the automobile industry and
the nation was reaffirmed today,
for the second time in recent
months, by announcement from
the Ford Motor Company of a
huge expansion program which at
its termination 10 months hence
will have seen at least $4,000, 900
distributed to workers and manu-
factureing concerns.
The program, one of the largest
planned by the automobile COM
pany in recent years, is made
necessary by the enlargement of
the steel plant at the company'S
River Rouge plant, at Dearborn,
and will double the plants power
capacity. Work of increasing the
steel plants capacity was begun
several months ago at a cost OF
$6,000,000. A Ford spokesman
said:
"Mr. Ford, by hisapprOval of
these projects, demonstrates his
confidence in the future of De-
trOit and the automobile indus
try"
OF the $1O,O00,O00 to be ex-
pended on the latest project, at
least $5,500,O00 will go toward
purchase of power equipment, in
Guiding q 11O,000-kilowatt gener-
ator, a 15,0O0-kilowatt turbine
generator, and a high-pressure
boiler. The official said:
"The equipment to be added
to our present power house is of
the most advanced design.
Such equipment would have
been impossible to purchase a
few years ago and is the result
of years of research by electrical
engineers.
Operations of the new steel
plant are expected to increase
power consumption by about IS
per cent. Other requirements
will consume additional power,
but substantial reserve surplus
will always be available"

TWO EXECUTED BY
 SPANISH ORDER

Madrid, Nov 7-(UP)-The gov- ernment today extended martial law for thirty days after the execu- ton of two men selected as sym bols of its determination to sup press disorders. Syndicalists and anarchists went on general strike in protest against the executions. Reports from Barcelona, one of the trouble centers, were that the strike had failed because the so- cialists, leaders in the revolt of October, had not joined it.
 There the strike was reported to be general only in textile and me- tallurgicaI industries. The strike was called in protest against the executions of Jose Naredo and Jose Guerra Pardo, chosen as symbols of the governments determination to stamp out internal disorders.
