NEW YORK, Dec. 20.-Selected
stocks turned toward rallying terri
tory in today's market, but progress
for the majority was far from spec
tacular and many issues remained
in rut.
Slight upward tendencies pre-
vailed at the start. There was a
subsequent slip Then fresh buying
came in and, around midday, steels.
shipbuildings, coppers, rails and
specialties showed gains of fractions
to point or more. Prices wavered
in some cases at the last.
Dealings were lively at intervals,
although resting periods were plenti-
full. Transfers were in the neigh
borhood of 100000 shares.
Few outstanding bullish items
were in the news budget and brokers
attributed the early swing mainly

analysts that. in view of five sue.
cesslve declining sessions the list
was entitled to comeback of mod.
est proportions if only temporarily.
Among restraining influences
were Continued apprehension over
possible invasion of England be-
fore the United States can furnish
additional aid; little more account
adjustments for the income blanks:
persistent worries over 194l taxes in
the light of the proposed leasing"
OF billions in armament materials
to Britain. and the desire of specu.

private industry favored war be-
cause Of profits 10 be made from

TO be the root of civic and gov

illustrating his point with a
story, White said the United States
was speeding along the highway of
world affairs, unmindful Of the
threat of war, roaring" TO meet
il. He intimated the threat had
been seen in time to meet 1t, but
not TO avoid II.
Three basic means of support
were spoken of in the upbuilding
OF both industry and government,
and he warned that should any
one Of these three supports be

The only items distinctive of

AL shoes in Costa Riea are hand
made-by law. They are Of excel
lent quality and cost from four TO
five dollars. even when specially
made for one. Snake skin and alli-
gator skin are native and make
the best shoes. The tortoise shell
combs. bracelets and brooches
were in many cases very finely
made. All leather goods were cheap
and well made. especially the stuff
made Of alligator skin. Aside from
these two items. Costa Rieans use
goods manufactured in Germany
and the U.sA.
Costa Rica has high import
duties on almost everything it i'm
ports in an effort to encourage
investment in Costa Rica. How
ever, II looks to me as il the gov

citizens of the advantages Of WELL

has no oil fields; they are only
making it tough for themselves.

Rumania Reported
Ready 10 Sever
Ties With Turkey
Entente Split Threatened
Unless Makers Of Allied
Pact Are Replaced
By the Associated Press.

6y tne hSbOClALeu fIcSS.
BUCHAREST, July 13.-Rumania
was reported authoritatively today
to be ready to sever her Balkan
Entente ties with Turkey unless ON
cials responsible for Turkeys mutual
assistance pact with Britain and
France are replaced.
The German legation here told
King Carols government that the
latest Berlin white book proves
conclusively" that Turkey planned
with the Allies for an attack on Ru-
manian as we'll as Soviet oil fields.
The government censor approved
an editorial in Bucharest's German
language newspaper Tageblatt
charging Turkey with treason" to
the Balkan Entente, which consists
of Turkey, Rumania, Greece and
Yugoslavia, by "conspiring against
the sovereignty and integrity" of
Rumania.
In German circles here it was re-
ported that Gen. Ion Antonescu,
leader of the pro-Nazi Iron Guard,
still is in prison.
The Rumanian general staff today
ordered farm workers and industrial
technical experts demobilized, begin
ming tomorrow. The number to be
sent back to their civilian jobs was
not given, but it included both off,
GERS and men.
Christian Wives of Jews Ousted.
Meanwhile, King Carols new
totalitarian Rumanian regime put
into effect anti-Semetic orders
forcing Christian wives of Jews to
give up government jobs.
This was one more of a series of
steps being taken speedily to create
in this country a small-sized model
of Europe's larger totalitarian states,
and followed night Of conference
involving King Carol, German air
and military attaches and most OF
the members Of the cabinet of Pre-
mier Ion Gigurtu.
Diplomatic circles said Rumanian
foreign policy was reviewed in what
they labeled the beginning Of closer
German-Rumanian cooperation.
The new Rumanian government
frequently has announced reorienta-
ton of Its policies in the direction
of the Rome Berlin axis. But just
as Rumania geographically is much
closer to Germany. so its new to-
talitarianism resembles the Nazi
more than the Fascist brand.
AS in the early days of Fascism
and National Socialism, Rumanian
Jews have borne the brunt Of many
attacks and may new laws. They
have been denounced in speeches
by cabinet members as "poisoners of
the national life" Jewish songs no
longer may be sung nor Jewish
music be played in public. No or
chestra may contain Jewish mu-
sicians Jewish artists are barred
from the stage.
Jews Forced Of Newspapers.
All Rumanian newspapers have
been required to discharge Jewish
editors and staff members. Jews
may hold neither public Office nor
government positions.
AS in Italy and Germany, the

press is under rigorous control.
Three newspapers already have been
suppressed in Bucharest. Today the
Rumanian press denounced the i'm
perialistic tendencies and exagger-
ated ambitions" Of Hungary.
Strict censorship has been i'm
posed on foreign correspondents.
Many Communists have been sent
