 New York. April 21-(UP)- Stocks and bonds advanced during the past week in the face of q drastic decline In, wheat which at one time was off nearly s12 cents bushel from last weeks close. The low in grains was made on Thursday and thereafter a moder- ate recovery took place.
 Wall street was impressed with the resistance the stock market displayed while grains crashed and commodities generally weak ened. The latter came when in- dications in Washington pointed to elimination of silver Legislation at this session of congress. Silver broke first. Then grains skidded downward in one of the widest grain markets of the year. On Thursday wheat futures broke the 5-cent limit allowed for one days fiuctuation. They rallied later, but were still down sharply for the week.
 Probably the biggest influence in buoying up stocks later was weak ness in the American dollar whick broke below the new gold parity in terms of the French franc and Dutch guilder and was down in all European. currencies. Wall Street was of the opinion the American gold price of $35 per ounce would soon be advanced to $36. The lat ter would mean a dollar 57.42 per cent of the old parity on the basis of gold at $20.67 per ounce.
 Incidentally, gold mining issues were severely depressed. Their decline followed, action of the Canadian government in levying a 10 per cent tax on newly mined gold. Producers protested so se- yerely it was believed the tax would be modified and the gold miners recovered part of their losses. The American gold mining stocks dropped and recovered with the Canadian.
 Silver shares sold off on the legislation difficulties, and later rallied with the main list. Silver futures and bar silver broke sharp ly and closed lower on the week.
 Leading industrial issues made good showing. Steels rose on 6 per cent rise in steel production. Motors held steady despite some more labor rumblings as reports showed automobile output at a new peak since July. 193O. Uttl- ities rallied when the electricity output index advanced. Rails ap- preciated on a $21,000 car gain in loadings, a gain that was sharply above seasonal. Other favorable business factors included rise in retail trade, and 2-year high in bank clearings.

WOOL MARKET

Boston. April U.PD-With a new clip fleece wools offered in increasing quantities as the season advances, weakness is noted in some quarters but not to the extent that some Boston wool buyers in- innate.
 Prices. though nominal, are re- presentative of the trends. Quota tions: Ohio Delaine fine combing, 33-35 cents in the grease; half blood 34-35 cents; three-eighths blood, 37-39; quarterblood. 36-3S. Territory graded strictly staple find combing wools are S4-S6 cents, clean; halfblood. S1-S3; three eights, 7S-S0; and quarterblood, :, 71-73.
 The U. $. Agriculture Depart ment said: trade in the Boston Wool Market remained unusually dull with most houses during the past week. Late in the week, an occasional member of the trade sensed a little better feeling but this had not. in most cases, de- yeloped into an active demand. Quotations were weak on medium fieeces and fairly firm on western grown wcols. Indicative of the firmness of prices on western grown wools. was the sale late thls week of siZabla quantity of choice twelve months Texas wool at S4-S5 cents, secured basis, the nominal quotation range that has prevailed for the past two weeks.

 New York, April. 21-. (UP)- Stocks fiuctuated irregularly today as the dollar sank to new low levels since its official devaluation early in the year.
 For q time the dollar was at levels which would make profitable export of gold to Europe. It hal lied quickly, however, and toward the close of the stock market it was again above the gold shipping point. meanwhile three was con- siderable uncertainty as to the government position with regard to further gold price advances. It was indicated the administration was average to a chance at this time and that it was likewise against a silver legislation.
 Silver futures dropped sharply. Spot price was down 1-2 cent at 45 cents an ounce. Silver stocks dropped. Gold mining issues rai- lied early in the day with home- stake reaching 3S0 up Is points. It lost a third of the gain and other gold issues dipped from their highs.
 Commodities aside from silver were steady to firm. Wheat rose more than a cent and other grains were fractionally higher. Cotton futures eased a few points. Rubber futures were strong.
 Steel stocks were firm at the outset. They fiuctuated narrowly in the early dealings and held small gains near the close. Rails were featured by sharp gains in Kansas City Southern issues, both of which made new highs. Other carriers moved narrowly. Utilities were steady to firm.

BY RICHARD U. GRIDLEY

(Copyright Washington. Apr. 21. (UP)-Authoritati sources to- day described the administration as determined for the present to pre- vent the American dollar from fall- ing below it's gold parity even though 1t may become necessary to permit gold exports to Europe.
 Recently the American dollar has shown weakness abroad. Yes- terday in .Paris it fell below it's new gold parity of IS 5-21 grains of gold. This raised the prospect of early support of the dollar either directly or indirectly by the United States government, should the decline continue.
 The federal government was ur- derstood to have made no change in it's policy announced last Janu- ny by Secretary of Treasury Mor-. gentfau that it will sell gold at $35 per ounce for export to foreign central banks whenever the dollar reaches the gold export point.
 The 'gold export point" is the level of the dollar in terms of the French franc or other gold cur rencies at which 1t would be profit able for persons to turn their for clSh 1AJ gold from the United States gov ernment at $35 per ounce, and ship the metal back to Europe.
 A decline of only few cents in the foreign exchange value of the dollar might make export of gold profitable. The dollar in Paris yes- terday slipped to around 99 1-2 cents of it's new parity and fur ther decline might call for Amer ican support through gold exports.
 This is expected to be the policy of the administration, at least for the time being, rather than use of it's fund set up several months ahead.
 Despite the decline in the dollar, accompanied by widespread ru- mors of a further devaluation of the dollar, a raising of the current $35 per ounce buying price for gold or infationary monetary steps, possibilities of. a large movement of gold out of fhe United tSates were discounted.
 The governments newly revalu- ed gold stocks On April IS reached a new record high level of $7,745,- 744,495, or about $1.25 for each dollar. of American money out standing. Even though billions of dollars of gold were to leave the United States. the American dollar

 Burial Of Veterans
Congressman Goss Makes Startling Statement in
 Objecting to Expense Reduction =

Demand that the exec itive or- der reducing the allowance for the turial of veterans from $100 to S75 be withdrawn was made yes- .terday in Washington. D. C.. by Congressman E. w. Goss of this city. He expressed the hope in the house. in opposing the allotment of only s75 for burial of pauper chill ,dren in the capital city.
 Congressman Goss declared that evidence before the military affairs committee, of which he is a mem Der, has been that veterans cannot be buried for $75. He explained that the committee had set the burial allowance at $10O but that President Roosevelt slashed 1t to S75.
 He voiced the hope that the president will restore the $100 and give the veterans what he considers the minimum for q decent bur- iar'. Congressman Blanton of Tex as asserted that the government always has the bodies of veterans it buries embalmed but Congress man Goss, yesterday issued the statement: Maybe. f @'
 q have had s75 cases in my dis trict where the body was not even embalmed and the casfet was fall ing apart" he declared.
