plate production was at a record
high, actually above 100 per cent of

production set a new high since

Utilities Perform Best

The French difficulties are still
considered highly important mar
ketwise. In event France is forced
of the gold standard and the other
gold bloc ountries-Holland and
Standardization, the whole cur
rency problem may be reopened.
Utility Stocks performed the best
OF any group on the Stock Ex-
change. Several companies reported
favorable earnings and the outlook
for the industry improved. The
Supreme Courts Guffey act decision
gave hope that similar one might
eventually come in the Wheeler
Rayburn bill. Then, too, paradox
cally the proposed tax bill seems to
be more lenient with the utilities
than the present one. Utilities
showed net gains on the week in
contrast with most other groups.
Oil shares had a sinking spell
when crude production set an all
time record high above 100000
barrels daily, swelled by increases in
the Rodessa field of northern Louis
lana. The oil group recovered part
of the losses but was down for the
week.

OWENS duplicated Nurmi's quad
" ruple triumph of the 1924 Olympic
games. When the record books were
brought up to date. the name OF
Owens was added to the list eight
times for his best performances in the
last two years. Two technicalities,
comprising a track measuring a frac-
ton of an inch short at Chicago and
q bit of tailwind at Berlin, robbed
Owens Of a new world record Of 10.2
seconds for 100 meters. Jessie was un-
beaten until Ralph Metcalfe outran
him at Cologne after the Olympics.
Owens contributed largely to a
sweep by American Negro runners Of
all Olympic foot races. from 100
through 800 meters. Archie Williams,
winner of the 400. set new world
mark of 461 at Chicago, displacing
the supposed perfect record" Of 46.2
by little Bill Carr in the 1882 games.
Long John Woodruff. winner Of the
800, startled athletic observers with
the longest stride ever seen in foot
racing. The expert feeling is that
the University of Pittsburgh runner
has the half mile and mile records at
the mercy of his space-eating form.
