CHANGES SLIGHT
In BOND MARKET
Selective Buying In Rails And
Some Foreign Issues
Marks Trading

NEW YORK, June 22|R-Se-
lective buying in rails and foreign
dollar obligations provided a few
firm spots in today's bond market
but most issues held within a
fractional range of Fridays close.
One of the outstanding changes
was a 10 point jump in French
stamped Is to 60 on sale of 4
bonds. This advance was scored in
the face of official French an
nouncement indicating the Franco
German armistice proceedings
might drag On for several days
before any decision on Germany's
proposals would be reached.
Others in the foreign group turn
ing in advances of a point or more
included Italian public utility Is at
SO, Queensland Is at 70 and Ger
man S LIS at Is. Argentine 4s and
German Is lost as much.
Domestic bonds ending up mod
erately included Northn Pacific
IS at "a 1-2, Boston & Maine 4
3-4s at so, Internal Paper IS at
9, Information Telephone IS at 20
IL, Columbia Gas & Electric IS at
101 7-8 and New York Central IS
at 81 10.
Unchanged to lower were,
among others, Studebaker IS,
Southern Railway Is, National
Dairy 8 3-4s, American & Foreign
Power IS, Continental Oil 2 34s
and Santa Fe As. Lehigh & New
England As, an inactive issue,
dropped 8 points to 70 ga on light

SUPPLY BUYING
BEGINS IN U. S.
Stock Bins And Warehouse

BY Frank MacMilIen

NEW YORK, June 22-RH
A change in business thinking
which may have far-reaching con-
sequences in coming months be.
came increasingly apparent this
week as industrial and commercial
buyers took wider steps to as

Trade sources said factory stock

were enough to last several

This was in sharp contrast to

PHILADELPHIA, June 22-R-
In spite of conflicting claims for
opposing candidates, enough n
pledged delegates are c%onverging
upon Philadelphia today to leave
the republican nomination in doubt
and the road wide open for a dark
horse to gallop through.
The convention assemblies under
a darkening cloud of the European
war, so thick with uncertainty that
anything may happen. The unreal
tiles of a year ago are real now.
What would have been regarded as
a political impossibility becomes
possible now.
Few then would have given Wen
dell L. Willkie, utilities man and
one-time democrat, a whisper of
a chance at a republican conven-
ton. And Herbert Hoover W a S
thought of as a former president
who had been smothered by the
anathema of a depression.
Yet, delegates assembling in
Philadelphia spoke seriously a n d
earnestly of both men. Their
names we're heard just as often
as were those of the two who have
led in the gathering-in of dele
gates-Thomas E. Dewey of New
York and Senator Taft of Ohio.
Plenty of other names e e
heard, too. Senator Vandenberg OF
Michigan was still on the list. So
were Senator McNary of Oregon,
representative Martin of M a S s.
achusetts, Governor Bricker OF
Ohio, Governor James of Pennsyl-
vania. The list is fairly long. 1t
will shorten somewhat after the
first ballot.
Already the groundwork has
been laid for the platform. Through
the last week members of the reso.
lutions committee sweated o v e r
the basic campaign doctrine.
Here, too, a vast change in EN-.
phasis has occurred in the last
year, or even six months. The i'm.
pact of gunfire and bombs in Bel.
GUM, Holland and France made
itself felt in the resolutions COM
