NEW YORK. Sept. 27.-The stock
market suffered late relapse today
following the brief world broadcast Of
Prime Minister Chamberlain, which
failed to sound an optimistic note in
the German-Reich war crisis that
many had looked for.
The list during the greater part Of
the proceedings pointed selectively
higher by fractions to more than two
points, with recently depressed steeh,
motors, rubbers and specialties pilot
ing the forward jaunt Dealings were
exceptionally slow, however, as specu-
lative forces restricted commitments
pending the address of the British
government chieftain.
Proves Disappointing.
The prime minister, speaking onlv
eight minutes, mainly asked the world
TO await as calmly as possible the
events of the next few days. Selling
hit the market as Chamberlain held
out no great hope for peace, declar-
ing that everything possible had been
done to avert European explosion.
Somewhat disappointing to the
board rooms also was the speakers
comment that, no matter how much
England sympathized with the small
nations, that the government could
not undertake to involve the British
empire in war for this reason.
offerings were pressed on the market
In sufhclent quantities to put the
ticker tape behind for a short interval
and forenoon advances were sharply
reduced or replaced with losses in
many cases.
Selling soon dried up, though, and
prices in most departments steadied
at the close. Transfers were around
100000 shares.
Steels. motors. rubbers and special.
ties were in the forefront of the morn
ing push and number of these
steadled at the close. Transfers vene
around 100000 shares.
Some Gains Remain.
A number of favorites were moder.
ately ahead at the sound of the final
gong. although minus signs were plen.

Faint hope was revived in Wall
Street from overnight study of Hit

was still open for negotiations between

State in Forefront Of Move

RICHMOND, Va, Mar. IA,
tUP)-Sidewalks for congested

mounting toll of pedestrian deaths
on the open road.
Governor James H. Price has
signed, following unanimous pas
sage by both houses Of the gen
eral assembly, a bill authorlzins
the state highway commission 10
construct the walkways and side-
walks along state highways IN an
attempt to lessen fatalities TO pc,
destrians, which have totaiec
more than $50 in the past three
years. ~ "a
The walkways, which will De
similar to city sidewalks along
paved streets, will protect pedes-
trians by keeping them off the
highways proper and out OF the
range of speeding AUTOMOBILES
COUNTIES TO SHARE COST
They will be built only at re-
quest of county boards of cont
missioners, and each county must
bear half the cost Of the construc-
ton within it's borders. Henry
G. Shirley, state highway commis-
sioner, estimated the walkway5
would cost between $1,000 and
$4,000 a 'mile" to build and would
be "well worth it" in the saVis';
of lives and injuries.
"They are a safety measure
pure and simple" he said. Shirley
added, however, that the highway
sidewalks, built attractively aloEg
the major highways of the state
would greatly enhance" the
beauty. of the roads, thus offer
ing an added inducement to coun-
ties to apply for them.
PROGRAM MEETS WITH
FAVOR go
Shirley expressed satisfaction
over the program and said it was
