STOCK MARKET
CON TINUES ON
DOWNWARD Way
Losses Run Smaller;
Trading Is Dull
BY LESLIE GOULD

NEW YORK, Dec. % GN.SO
The stock market lost further
ground today, although losses
were smaller than in the / to 3
point decline of yesterday.
Trading continued dull, with the
usual pre-holiday influences at
work. Profit taking still was ap-
parent, as traders closed out long
lines for the Christmas period.
PRICES ARE SOFT
Prices were soft from the open
ing, Steels, coppers and motors
leading the list downward. Losses
in pivotal issues averaged a point
or so. Little disposition to rally
was shown through the forenoon.
Chrysler came within a point of
its 1887 low on a drop of slightly
more than point, but General
Motors limited its loss to a small
fraction. In the Steels, Youngs-
town slipped a point and Bethle-
hem as much before meeting sup
port. United States Steel held
within a fraction of its previous
close.
TYPICAL LOSSES
Other representative issues to
lose a point or more included
Union Carbide, American Tele-
phone, American Smelling, Ken,
necott, Montgomery Ward, Sears
Roebuck, Westinghouse Electric,
International Harvester, Pullman,
Texas Corp, U. S. Gypsum and
Johns -Manville.
American Sugar was among the
few stocks to hit a new low for
the year.
Commodities we're easier. cot
ton losing close to so cents
bale, and grains slipping fractions
at Chicago. Bonds were dull and
irregular.
London and Amsterdam mar
ketS displayed a firm tone, with
holiday influences dominating.
The dollar showed no appreciable
change.

FAvORS INCREASE

Taylor, a Colorado Democrat
who at 80 is the Oldest man ir
the House, made it plain he
favored crossing the billion dollar
mark.
There is going to have to
be an elevation of our sights on
this business of national de-
fense." he said.
There is not a nation in the
world which would raise a
finger to help us should we be-
come embroiled in trouble. Our
solution is to show the world
where and how we stand and
the sooner the better"
He refused to discuss where the
national defenses should be
strengthened, declaring "the pro
gram should be broad and com
prehenSive, extending to the
farthest outpoSts and with q
particular eye to seeing that oul
air forces are wholly adequate"

PLEA OF TAYLOR

of Representative
BY ROBERT HUMPHREYS
Copyright 1897. by International
News Service.1

Immediate strengthening of the
entire national defense structure
"even though it means continua'
tion of an unbalanced budget"
was strongly urged today by Chair
man Edward T. Taylor, of the
House Appropriations Committee.
with the international situ-
alton what it is, this country's
greatest insurance for peace is
in building up our defenses as
rapidly as possible to the point
of invulnerability." Taylor de-
clared. "As chairman of the
House Appropriations Commit
tee, I intend to do everything in
my power to achieve that invul-
nerability."
The Washington times., 1937-12-23
SILENT ON BUDGET

Although he declined to discuss
either the Nays budget, now be
ing considered in secret session!
by his CO: mittee, or the War De
partment estimates, currently II
preparation, Taylor said he "dic
not think it possible to balance
the budget under present interna
tional conditions"
"And," he added, "I don't
think we can balance the budget
now because somewhere along
the line Congress is going to in
crease substantially QUIZ appro-
priations for national defense.
Most of the members of Con-
gresS feel that way now, and by
the time we reach consideration
Of these appropriations in the
next few weeks, I think the
country is going to feel the same
way"
The combined Navy and War
Department budgetary demands
for the next fiscal year are re-
ported to exceed $1,000, 200, 900,
the largest national defense pro-
gram proposed since the World
War. The current combined ap-
propriations amount to 1891, ,806,-
