New York, July 7-UP)- Transition of the stock market from private to government con-. tro1 began this week without qualm. Trading continued light with prices showing a firming ten- dency late in the week after three days of decline.
 On Monday the market had be- fore it, in addition to the start of government regulation worry over effects on the railroad pensions bill which the president signed before leaving for his vacation, Wall street experts estimated the bill would be very costly to many railroads and sold their stocks ac- cordingly with the result that the railroad group alone among the principal sections of the market closed the week under last weeks closing levels.
 There appeared to be less wor- ry over the regulatory commission to rule over the exchange. The street was pleased with President Roosevelt's selections for the mem bership but 1t was still frankly concerned over the methods to be adopted in formulating rules to clarify and supplement the secur- ities exchange act. It took hear. from remarks of Joseph Kennedy. chairman, in which he said there would be no nasty action on the part of the commission. It would he added, feel its way in making changes. ~
 That statement by Kennedy may have had a favorable influence on the market in the late trading Friday. Prices firmed although there was no change in the light turnover recently prevalent. Sales were under a half million shares in all full sessions. T
 Business news was favorable ex- cept for steel operations and drop there had been anticipated. Because of the. holiday week which is time for many steel mills to shut down the country's rate of steel production declined to 21 per cent of capacity. ..
 New highs for the year were noted in electricity output and ,in carloadings. Automobile produc- ton made good showing and building operations seemed to be making progress. Textile activity decreased, and bank clearings de-

CTS, including strong voice in control of the Reich monetary pol icy insofar as 1t affects trade. This was regarded as important because Schmitt and Dr Hjalmar Schacht, president of the Reichsbank, fre- quently have disagreed. Schmitt re- portedly has favored policy of depreciation of the mark-a sig nificant factor in world affairs as well as d matter of utmost impor- tance to every German.
 Death Toll Next Week
 Meanwhile, the propaganda min- istry said that government com- munique might be expected early next. week giving the death toll in the purging of the Nazi party of. traitors.
 It also was said that the question of Vice. Chancellor Franz Won Pa pens future remained uncertain although Won Papen is expected to visit President Paul Von Hindcn- burg at Neudeck later.

 Karlsruhe, Germany, July 7.- (UP)-New difficulties for the Ma zi regime arose today in the drive to make the Mueller or Reich church group dominant in Ger many.
 The Evangelical Synod at Baden rejected a law merging the Baden church with Ludwig Mueller's Reich church. The supreme church council, dominated by Mueller, thereupon dissolved the synod.
 The action indicated a growing resistance to Muellers police :n districts which previously hal been neutral in his drive to build up a church organization closely knit to the Hitler regime, It al- so emphasized the determination of Mueller, who once said that Chancellor Adolf Hitler received his inner power from his unswerv- ing faith in God" to crush the church opposition.

might do a bit of business in stocks.
 Steel operations which took a sensational drop during the pres ent Fourth of July week turned upward almost as rapidly. The Youngstown area is scheduled to operate at 30 per cent at the be- ginning of next week. a rise of 10 points or 50 per cent. Two weeks ago the rate was 52 per cent. and in the corresponding week of 1888, it was 67 per cent.
 Pittsburgh reported rise in it's steel rate exactly the same as that in Youngstown-to 30 per cent, a gain of 10 points. Two weeks ago, it was 40 per cent and year ago. 45 per cent.
 The upturn in steel operations had no perceutible effect on steel stocks which drifted about in a. narrow range. U. s. Steel moved over q one-half point arc while Bethlehem's fluctuation was onl5 Is point. National Steel also reg-8 istered a Is point difference.
 Railroad shares were dull and steady; April operations for all class one roads resulted in an ag- gregate net loss of $11,006, ,161. That was a much better showing than last year when the net loss of all the class one roads was S21,' 007,494, against $f19.645,754 in the corresponding period of 1883.
 Delaware and Hudson spurted to 55 IA up IA, the widest gain. on the board and a net change that made it stnad out in the list of narrow fluctuations.
 Tobacco issues were higher, chemicals unchanged, and some of the chain store issues lower; Mail order shares were practically unchanged.s American Telephone held at the previous close of 115, while Western Union lost point to A 1-2

WOOL MARKET

Boston, July 7-CUP)-The sit- uation in the Boston wool market was unsettled the past week. ac- cording to today's report of the U. s. agriculture department.
 Besides the continued reluctance of mills to begin in any large way to anticipate their requirements on raw wool sharp decline in prices at the London opening added further degree of uncertainty.
 A decline at London had been expected in view of the declines between series in primary markets, but many members of the local trade had not expected quite as sharp a decline as was recorded at London on Tuesday. Neyerthless, nominal quotations on spot domes- tic wools in Boston showed little change.

 Berlin, July 7-(UP)-Chance lor Adolf Hitler and Nazi leaders appeared to-day to be taking ad- vantage of reports of quiet throughout the Reich to attack the threatening economic problems confronting Germany.

 Lag in market interest was ac- counted for to some extent by the fact that many traders left the street last night for a holiday un- til Monday. Then, too, all the minor commodities markets were closed which took away many who

end profit-taking Saturday with

Although public participation In
equities was still far from what the

sirable, signs OF renewed interest
we're reported In some quarters and
there was q much more cheerful
atmosphere apparent in the board
rooms. Todayls volume was the
largest for q Saturday since last
June.
There was no especial news to
stimulate the speculative appetite.
but the feeling seemed TO prevail
that recovery Is proceeding at such
a steady pace that business and in

before many months have passed.
Improvement in steel stocks, long
considered market barometers, tend
ed to hearten ever those skeptics
who have been able TO see only dark
clouds In the trading future. Fol-
lowers Of the steels were encouraged
by the slow upturn IN weekly pro-
duction rates and there were some
predictions that output would soon
reach the 40 per cent capacity Level
where most Of the companies can
begin to show satisfactory profits.
Hopes for this industry were seen In
