Blue Chips Climb In Stock Mart

NEW YORK, Sept. -tR-Blue
chips were the principal climbers
in today's fifth successive average
rise of the stock market.
In the first better than million.
share session for nearly two weeks,
industrial favorites were well out
IN front at the start. Profit taking
on the run-up, however, stemmed
the, push after midday and early
plus marks running to 2 or more
points were reduced or converted
into losses in some cases at the
close.
Further inspiration for the ex-
tension of last weeks recovery was
found in cheering news from vir.
tually all battlefronts. The sue
cessful government bond drive also
was prop for sentiment, as were
business developments and hopes
for constructive congressional leg
lslatlon on taxes. Peace stocks
were selectively popular although
armament issues were able to hold
their own in most instances.
The Associated Press 60 j. stock
composite was up 2 of a point at
51,6. 1t was one of the broadest
markets since late July, 926 indi-
vidual issues being traded. Of
these 500 were up, PIG down and
2O7 unchanged. Transfers of L.
O98, 320 shares were the largest
since August 3 and compared with
094, l55 in the preceding 5 hour
stretch.
Heavy oversupscription of two
large special offerings and one
secondary bolstered bullish ar
guments. The specials" were 35,-
600 shares of Twentieth Century-F o
at % Git finished at % 1-2 in resu-
lar transactions) and 1000 shares
of Adams Express at II 3-4. The
stock closed at this price which
was a gain of 3-8 from Saturdays
final quotation. The secondary"
was 1850 shares of Long Bell
Lumber Co. at 6 IA.
The sale of a Stock Exchange
seat of SAL, 1000. up $1,000 from a
preceding transfer was a pleasing
indicator for the brokerage fra
ternity.
Among favorites touching new
Goodrich and U. S. Rubber. Prom
inent on the upside were Westing-
house. American Can, Allied Chem
ical, Dow Chemical, dePont, East
man Kodak, Johns Manville, Philip
Morris U. S. Steel. Bethlehem,
Pepsi-Cola. j. I. Case and United
Aircraft. Fractional Improvement
was retained by General Motors,
Consolidated Edison, Woolworth,
Standard Oil (ND and Gre t
Northern. Billiard Co. rose l IA
as the company reported first half
net of S4.21 a share against rs
cents in the like 1912 period.
Losers included Chrysler, Sears
Roebuck. Santa Fe, N. Y. Central,
Kennecott, Douglas Aircraft. Sper-
ny. Goodyear and Western Union.
Bonds were steady. At Chicago
wheat was off 1-8 to IL cent
bushel and hogs down 10 cents.
Cotton was ahead 20 to so cents
a bale.
In the curb modest advances
were posted for Creole Petroleum

Along with this is promised a check

8. Increased demand by con-
gress that other countries share

Begins REIMBURSEMENT
There are other changes which
many in congress would like to see
made and some which already are
under way. In the former category
lies the suggestion of the five SEN
ators for strengthening the diplo'
matte corps and advancing mem
bers in rank. AS an instance of the
latter, the administration already
has begun readjustment to equal
ize the drain on British and Ameri-
can supplies Of petroleum.
Military strategy naturally will
be less affected by the report, but
even the military leaders canno
The Wilmington morning star., 1943-10-10

disregard wholly the general dis
satisfaction with which the five
viewed the slow progress of the war
in the Pacific. This does not mean,
of course, that the high command
will adopt the strategy suggested
by Chandler of fighting a holding
war against the Germans while we
turn the full power of our often
sive on the Japanese.
But outside of the strictly mill
tary field, the senate has some
thing it can sink its legislative
teeth into and it's mood is far
from conciiatory.
Administration leaders are sor-
ry that the trip ever was made
because it spells trouble for them
and they feel it is likely to have a
bad reaction on relations with our
allies. AS one of them dolefully told
this writer: Nothing but harm can
come out of this thing"

Lined up with the Republican

farm producing states. Chairman
Steagall DALAI bluntly asserted
that no authority now exists for
the Office of Price Administration
to fix price ceilings below the cost
of production under the theory OF
making up the difference through
subsidies.
The arguments OF those in favor
of writing a subsidy ban into the
CCC extension bill range from the
assertions that this method OF

debt to the service men, to the
claim that consumers never were
