LANSING, April l. Blaming
the Republican ma jority in the
for the dawdling pace
of state affairs. Gov. Murray ID.
Van Wagner today entered the
fourth month Of his administration
with the slate still a blank.
Every major administration bill
has been locked tight by House
ana Senate committees, and for
the first time in many years April
Fools Day has arrived without
the lawmaking. machinery in gear.
81 am not sure that we can
abide the ObstructiOnist tactics
of this Legislature much longer"
the governor lamented as he
looked back over the first
quarter of his first year in
office. "Hhe whole Republican
program has concentrated on
spiking the administration.
NO IMPORTANT BUSINESS
1.-THE members have been In
session now for three months,
and not one measure that can
he called important has reached
my desk.
''1he trOuble-making attitude
of the Republican majority Is
eXemplified by the reaction IN
the bill creating a council of
defense. This measure was
submitted by the administration
early In January"
Governor Van Wagner pointed
to his labor program as another
example of the refusal of the
Legislature to cooperate with the
administration.
THE legislators haven't even
opened discussion on my bills
for maximum hours and mini
mum pay and to increase bene-
fits under the Unemployment
Compensation Act" he said.
'In fact. they have refused
to take any step that might
reflect credit to the admins
tratiOn.
IF Highway Commissioner g.
Donald Kennedy is defeated In
the election next Monday. the
Republicans will have control
of the administrative board and
the situation then will be even
worse"

Stock Averages
CO. Stock Range Since 1927:
By VICTOR EUBANK,
Associated Press Financial Writer.

NEW YORK, Feb. 24.-Stocks
whipped up a late quiet rally in
today's market after moping over
an uneven range during the greater
part of the session.
Steels, motors, aircrafts and
number of blue chips came back
in the final hour and tackled on
gains of fractions to points, with
few inactives posting wider
advances.
Dealings picked up trifle on the
raising of bids, and transfers for the
full proceedings we're around 300 900
shares. In the first four hours the
total turnover amounted to only
10000.
The better action of the list was
attributed partly to the deduction
from the Hitler speech that an at
tempted invasion of England was
not imminent and that a new sub
marine smash was the principal
threat of the moment, to the intro
duction in the House Of a new bill
to amend the excess profits tax law,
which, supposedly, would relieve
hard-pressed corporations, and to
the fact that selling had dried up to
virtually nothing.
An upturn of II points to 96.3
per cent of capacity in this weeks
estimated steel mill operations also
was seen as a favorable factor. The
rebound seemingly reflected the re-
sumption of furnaces which had
been out for repairs.
While the market revival was
comforting to bullish forces, these
still had to contend with the cloudy
war outlook both in the Far East
and Europe, together with many
strikes in defense industries, worries
over taxes and lack of real buying
activity.
Douglas Aircraft jumped more
than points in the wake of record
earnings figures.

NEW YORK, Feb. 24.-Com-
memorating the 18th anniversary of
its founding in 1866. the National
Board of Fire Underwriters this
year will conduct an intensive
campaign to stimulate countrywide
recognition of the increased need

to the national defense program.
The anniversary program will
reach its climax at two-day meet
ing at the Waldorf Astoria Hotel in

erS in many fields of endeavor will

nearly 200 capital stock fire insur-
