DAYS feeble stock market rally, the
first on average since July %, quick
ly fizzled today under light selling

Efforts TO extend the recovery at
the start never got very far and
trends in most departments began
to slip by midday. There were SCAT
tered losses of point or so at the
close, but declines generally were
IN fractions A few aircrafts and
specialties managed to contest the
reversal
The ticker tape frequently moped
and transfers for the full proceed
ings were around 375,000 shares, one
of the smallest turnovers since early
July.
Wall Street was a bit more pes
simistlc over the apparent Nazl Sue
cesses in the Ukraine push. The
speculative urge also was believed
to have been dimmed by the rec
ommendation of the United States
Chamber of Commerce to the Senate
Finance Committee that the pres
ent tax bill be boosted from SO .500.-
900 900 to s4.500,000 900. The Roose-
welt Churchill accord remained
more or less neutral market factor.
Persistent tension in the Far East
still was used as bearish argument.
The fact the lengthy stalemate
was broken Thursday by an inslg-
nificant margin convinced some an
alysts the list was not yet in posi-
ton TO negotiate a worthwhile up
swing.

Excess Bank Reserves
Rise 10 Millions
During Week
Br the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
The Federal Reserve Board said
that lendable excess reserves Of
banks increased $4,000 900 to a total
of s5O30,0 900 in the week ended
August 13.
The gain was attributed to num-
ber of technical factors. The trend
of idle money recently has been
downward because of increasing
Treasury and industrial borrowing
for defense.
During the week ended August
13 member bank reserve balances
declined $3,000,0O0. Reductions in
member bank reserves arose from
increases of S8O,OO0,OOO in Treasury
deposits for Federal Reserve banks
and $16 1000, 900 in Treasury cash, off,
set by decreases of SAG, 900, 900 on nom
member deposits and other Federal
Reserve accounts and 100000 in
money in circulation and by in
creases of $21,000,000 in gold stock,
100000 in reserve bank credit and
S3,000,000 in Treasury currency.
Excess reserves of members banks
on August 13 were estimated to be
approximately $5,030,0O0, an increase
of s10,000,000 for the week"

STATES WHEAT PRODUCERS TO
VOTE ON MARKETING QUOTAS

damned up by the war abroad
threaten to cause a drastic price
collapse unless some marketing ad-
justment is made.
The use of marketing quotas rests
entirely with farmers. Two thirds
of all farmers voting in a national
referendum must give their ap-
prOval before wheat marketing
quotas are put into operation.
If the wheat marketing quotas
are voted favorably by u majority
of farmers, surplus wheat above
the production from acreage aIlot-
ments will be kept off the market,
will be held back until some time
when it is needed. Under quotas,
the farmer who has seeded within
his acreage allotment can sell all
of the wheat he raises without
penalty, and can put this wheat
under government loan ut the full
rate.
Milford chronicle., 1941-04-18

duction of cash crops for market.
Where a farmer obtains a loan
for the purchase of feed or pro-
duetion of feed crops, a chattel
mortgage on the livestock to be
fed is required.
q Mr.. Richards states that these
loans are made in amounts up to
$400 and the interest rate is 4 per
cent; however, the amount is gov
erned by the acreage to be planted,
in the case of loans for the pro-
ductiOn of crops for market, and
by the livestock to be fed, where
the loan is for the production on
purchase of feed.
Farmers are urged to avail
themselves of the benefits that can
be received through compliance
with the Agricultural Conservation
Program. The Emergency Crop
and Feed Loan Office insists that
its borrowers adhere to the ap-
proved practices as recommended
by the Extension Service.

NntritiOnist for the State Beard Of Health
DELAWARE DIETIT1ANS.
OFFER SERVICES"

| Do you wonder how the scientific
findings about normal nutrition
needs for health can be translated
into every days meals?
The Delaware Dietetic Associa-
tiOn is Offering its services to clubs
and societies of Delaware for pro-
grams next year, Dietitians be-
cause of their four year college
training in home economics and
their postgraduate training and
practical experience are well quail
flied to discuss the application of
nutrition and to answer questions
for you.
Letters are being written by the
secretary, Miss Eleanor Mcknight
of the Milford Memorial Hospital,
to service clubs, the Parent-Teach-
er Association, and professional or
ganizatiOns to suggest that they
include nutrition in their fall pro-
gram, either with a panel discus
sion group of dietitians or with
nutrition exhibits.
The Delaware dietitians want to
be of service to our state in the
national emergency. II seems that
dfetitians can be of especial value
by teaching nutrition since they
have practieed knowledge OF
healthful feeding.
Dietetics is a relatively new
profession for women. The Amer
lean Dietetic Association was Or
ganized Immediately after the last
war with membership Of about
fifty. Today its national member
ship is well over 1000 and that is
not enough graduate dietitians to
fill the growing demand for wo-
men trained in this branch of home
economics. Standards for member
ship in the American Dietetic AS
sociation are the accepted stand
ards for government, army and
Red Cross dietitians.
The Delaware group is affiliated
with the American Dietetic Asso-
citation. Miss Henrietta Fleck, in
structOr in Home Economics at the
of Delaware, is the local
president. Delaware membership
includes hospital dietitians, cafe
.eria managers and nutrition
workers throughout the state.
National preparedness has TO
.used everyOne's attention upon
'ood and its relation to health. An
amount of information
Ind misinformation is being dis
.ussed at bridge tables, restauEants
and even in mems clubs. The
0ietetic Association will render a
lervice If it can provide useful
md reliable Information on nutri-
ion to the people of our state.
