NEW YORK, Marcn 81. - (R) -
Assorted rails, oils, liquors, gold
mines and specialties made fair
amount of progress in today's
stock market but profit taking on
Thursdays rally stymied many
leaders.
Buyers switched from one group
to another, with earnings prospects
mainly the principal inspiration.
There was considerable hesitancy
in evidence, however, due partly
to the question of whether the re-
cent tumble had served as suf-
ficient technical correction of the
lengthy advance. Some customers
also held aloof because Of the COM
ing weekend and the desire to keep
reasonably liquid pending possible
important foreign news breaks.
Selected strength was present at
the start and gains of fractions to
2 or more points were plentiful at
the close although best prices were
reduced in the majority of cases
and losers were numerous.
The Associated Press 60-stock
average was unchanged at 52.1 but
Of 844 issues on the ticker tape,
All were up, FOG down and 217
unchanged. Dealings were slow at
intervals although occasional pick
ups put volume at 1877, 400 shares
compared with 681, 100 the day be-
fore.
Hopes for boosts in crude oil
rates and freight charges aided
petroleums and rails. Liquors still
were benefited by good income
accounts. General Motors n d
Chrysler were off 1-8 each in the
wake Of the formers 1943 report
disclosing lowest net per share in
six years as heavy provisions were
made for renegotiation and post
war contingencies.
Touching peaks for 1914 were
Sinclair Oil, Hiram Walker, Ward

Crane Co., Excel Corp. and
Eastman Kodak. Finishing in front
were Santa Fe, Atlantic Coast
Line, Shelley Oil, Texas Co., Ply
mouth Oil, Homestake, Dome, Nc
Intyre Porcupine, Goodyear, Beth.
lehem and U. S. Steel.
International Nickel and Eastern
Air Lines dipped to new lows for
the year. On the offside were N.
Y. Central, Kennecott, Du Pont
and Consolidated Edison.
In the curb modest advances
were recorded for Aluminium Of
America, Lake Shore. Cuban At
lantic Sugar, Pantepec and Vene-
zuelan Petroleum. Turnover here
was 100, $50 shares versus 1874, $3.50
yesterday.

DRY GOODS

NEW YORK, March 81 Up -
There was no improvement in the
goods situation today as most OF
the mill releases on cotton textiles
were absorbed on high priority
contracts to the government for
military and other purposes.
Limited quantities of wool goods
were sold to the trade for fall
lines but activity mostly conferred
on war orders.
The rayon goods market was
quiet.

American Labor, Food Put
Weight on Nazi Prisoners

FORT MCCLELLAN, Ala, April
Is - Working in American field
or garages or sawmills eight
hours a day and eating American
food has put an average of nine
pounds on the 2,736 members of
the German Afrika Corps who are
here for the duration as prisoners
of war.
They began arriving last sum-
mer, a tired warrior group burn
ed by the desert sun, beaten in
battle, and defeated in the race
across Africa, Now they are a
healthy appearing lot with SOL
dierly bearing and snap in their
manner. The raised arm and out
turned palm of the Nazi salute is
quite proper at Fort Mcclellan,
for under the 1929 Geneva conven-
ton war prisoners pay that cour-
tesy to officers of the army which
captured them. They receive an
answering salute by the American
model.
The practice of the prisoners is
to use the Nazi salute only when
not wearing a hat. At other times
they give the hand salute.
Some 1000 of the Nazis intern
ed here were off in branch camps
established near the scene of work
projects to avoid TRANSPORTATION

aerialists squat comfortably in
first row box seats. With only "a
hours to 60 until the audience ar
rives, it doesn't look as if it will
ever be a circus.
When all the props are in place,
and rehearsal finally begins, it still
doesn't resemble the circus you

The Dignified Gargantuas
Downstairs, in the freak show
domain, it sounds like an animal
Tower of Babel. The side show
stands aren't even up yet, and the
place is filled with growing lions,
squawking seals and snorting ele-
plants. About the only quiet ones
are Mr.. and Mrs. Gargantua, sulk-
ing in opposite corners of their di-
vided, air : conditioned apartment.
The whole business is a mess.
But the folks who live under the
big top know the miracle "a hours

problems when a group Of writer's
for newspapers, magazines and ra-
dio visited Fort Mcclellan during
tour of army training centers.
The prisoner camp is on a hill
side not far from the main part
of Fort Mcclellan.
Finding jobs for the internees
is not always easy. But at the
moment there are 81 work prof.
ects on the reservation, and near
by is large vegetable garden on
land leased for the purpose. The
pay is 80 cents day.
There is current manpoWer
surplus in one group since rules
forbid using non commissioned
officers Cor anything but super
visory work. Less than one half
of these can be placed.
During a quick tour OF a few
of the projects, Nazi soldiers were
seen working in a small saWmill,
repairing automobiles in the camp
motor pool garage, mixing con-
crete, planting vegetables, and po-
Icing camp area.
The prisoners kept themselves
occupied but were setting no
speed records.
The camp here has less than
two per cent of the total axis war
prisoners in the United States.
There are SO centers like this one
and SO branch camps, with a total
of $4,000 Germans, $4,000 Italians
and 345 japanese.
