mate aim to have one manufacture

manned.
A few hours after the announce.

ates the war plant for the govern
ment, 200 negro men and women i'll
single file circled the plant bear

u. S. Workers Earnings
Increase IL Per Cent

WASHINGTON June 90 tR -
The Labor department reported to-
day a gain of 1.2 per cent in the
average hourly earnings of work
ers in manufacturing industries in
April, bringing the average fo r
that month to 81.9 cents an hour.
This figure, said Secretary Of
Labor Perkins, was 1876 per cent
above that for the same period last
year.
The increase was credited main.
ly to the expansion of working
forces in the higher-paying war in.
dustries and wage-rate increases.
The increase in overtime hours,
previously significant factor,
had less effect on the April trend,
the average hours remaining vir.
tually unchanged, Miss Perkins
said. 4

Speculative And Invest
ment Apathy Blamed On
Bearish Developments
By BERNARD s. O'HARA

NEW YORK, June 20.-RLThe
stock market today stepped out OF
4 generally foggy week with
trends still notably obscure.
While selling pressure, as in the
past several sessions, was absent
the buying urge was lacking. Un'
even tendencies prevailed at t h e
start. Gains running to a point or
so were well distributed at n e
close although declines of as much
were in the majority.
Brokers again blamed specula-
tive and investment apathy main
ly on somewhat bearish war de-
velopments. Many customers also
aside to await the outcome of the
Roosevelt Churchill conferences.
Tax doubts persisted as a market
handicap.
The Associated Press average OF
go stocks was off Il of point at
35.6 but on the week was I'M
changed. Transfers totaled 127, ,O6O
shares compared with 108,740 a
week ago.
Prominent stocks on the losing
end included U. S. Steel, Bethle-
hem, Chrysler, General Motors,
American Telephone, Santa Fe,
Sears Roebuck, Douglas Aircraft,
Anaconda, Du Pont and Ow s.
Illinois.
Eastman Kodak was up a point
and lesser plus marks were pinned
on Consolidated Edison, Westiag-
house, Goodyear, Union Carbide,
Union Pacific, Philip Morris and
Phelps Dodge.
Bonds were spotty, commodities
stiffened at the last. At Chicago
wheat and corn were unchanged to
up 3-8 of cent a bushel, respec-
lively and hogs steady. Cotton was
up IS to rs cents a bale.
In a slim-going curb Creole Pc
troleum managed to hold small
gain, along with American Cyna-
mid and American Super Power.
Lower were Glen Alden Coal, N.
]. Zinc and International Petrol
cum. Turnover here aggregated
10, 12O shares versus 1905 a S t

WHAT STOCKS DID
CHICAGO GRAIN

CHICAGO, June 20. - Up - The
grain market steadied today, re-
covering it's equilibrium after yes
terday's retreat.
Wheat was up about 1-2 cent at
one time and off IA to 3-8 later,
closing unchanged to 3-8 higher
compared with yesterday, July
$1.l9 1-8, September $1.21 3-4-5-8.
Other grains followed the action
of wheat. although oats fell as
much as 3-4-7-8 cent at one time,
due partly to hedging sales in con-
nectfon with the new crop move
ment. July soybeans also were
off about cent due to liquidation
prior to the delivery period and
to Logging demand for meal. Buy
ing attributed partly to professors
lifted rye.
Corn closed unchanged to 3-S
higher, July 86 3-4, September
80 1-8-1-4; oats 1-4-3-8 off; soybeans
5-8 lower to IL higher; rye 1--3-4

There was an additional demand

bulk of selling consisted of hedg-

Underlying factors in the i'm
