CAUTION IS SHOWN
BY OIL INDUSTRY.
Disturbed Price Situation in
California and Tapering
Demand Watched.
~ tho Associated Press.

~ tIln hocoSiabCo EtSoss
TULSA, Okla, September 4.-The
disturbed crude price situation in
California and the tapering demand
for refined products caused the oil in
dustry to proceed cautiously this week.
The refined market held up well
under the circumstances.
Neither the coast disturbance nor
the decline in demand for refined
products came Unexpectedly. Bad
weather In some sections over Labor
day week end caused the buying to
drop rather more than usual.
Prices Generally Unchanged.
Third grade gasoline gave way an
eighth Of cent gallon on the lower
quotations on the Chicago tank car
were unchanged, with third grade
43saB at Chicago and the regular
514a34.
Conditions favorable to Fall plow-
ing strengthened the demand in this
district for kerosene with the result
that the prices held steady despite
sales pressure.
The California crude price cut still
was being watched with interest. The
most optimistic observers called it a
'local situation" and cited a previous
instance when crude price reductions
were restored after few weeks when
production was brought down. These
observers predicted an early end to
the difficulty and said the price would
be hiked to its former level soon.
Attempt to Cut Prices.
The Independent Petroleum As
ISOLATION view was that the move is
a plan by the major companies to
force prices down and I'LL their tanks
with cheap crude.
So far, however. the mid-continent
price level has reflected to almost no
extent the California disturbance and
there are no indications that 1t will
unless the low-price condition on the
coast persists over a period of several
weeks.

CASH STOCK DEALS
CONTINUE TO GROW
Decline in Ratio of Borrow.
ings to Value of Shares
Pronounced.
Special Dispatch to Tas star.


NEW YORK, September 4.-The
steady decline in the ratio Of Dor
rowings Of Stock Exchange members
to the total market value Of listed
shares, in the face of rising activity
and prices Of stocks this year, is one
index to the performance Of cash
transactions In the present market.
Total market value of listed shares
August was $38.913 ,092, 273. which
was about the same as In the first
quarter Of 1927. II the later period
be considered as fairly normal in
market and credit conditions, then
total net borrowings Of Stock Ex-
change members on collateral nor
nially would be slightly above S.
100000, 900 for o market at the pres
ent value level. Instead. the loans
are under $500, 900 900.
Continuous Drop.
The ratio Of net borrowings to mar
ket values has dropped almost contin-
uously from 8 per cent August l. 1884,
to 1888 per cent at the first Of this
month. Since March ! the decline has
been uninterrupted while market val
ues have risen and trading volume
has increased.
Exchange member borrowings have
not simply risen at a slower rate than
market values; they have actually
shown a downward trend during the
last year.
One reason for the failure Of loans
to follow the trend of the market may
be the employment Of brokers' own
capital to finance margin transactions
Of the customers. However, against
a few firms that have capital in ex-
cess of current requirements Of the
firm, there are many that are scrap
ing along with capital tied up in Sc
curities that would have to rise sub
stantially to release funds for financ-
ing customers.
Influence OF Margin Requirements.
Another explanation might be the
margin requirements of the Federal
Reserve Board that prevent the use
Of paper profits to pyramid stock
holdings within a certain price range.
Yet margin speculation on a rising
market would increase loans In spite
OF this restriction.
The answer, confirmed by exchange
members. Is that the active rising
market represents switching from
bonds into stocks or from one stock
to another by strong holders of securi-
ties and the withdrawal OF stocks to
deposit boxes by cash buyers.

New Discovery Hailed
by Boby Doctors

Solid foods are made up of tough>walled food
cells Even when baby's foods have been care
fully strained, all these food cells are not broken
down All nourishment they contain is not abb
sorbed into your babys system.
But now Libby has discovered new process
of Homogenzation that "expodes every food
cell into tiny PARTICLES None of the coarse rritat
ing hberstha are present in strained foods remain
Vegetables, fruits, soup and cereal are made
smooth as milk.
Libby's Homogenlzed Foods for Babies keep all
the bulk necessary to prevent constipation. But
PARTICLES of nourishment are broken down so finely
that it easy for your baby to digest them quickly
and com pletely. No halfdigested food passes into
the large intestine to ferment and perhaps cause
serious disturbances.
Doctors hail this new discovery Homogenized
foods actually help protect against intestinal up
sets by making digestion easier and more com,
pIete And because they give your baby greater
nourishment, they help him build up healthy re-
S~tlnce to other diseases.
