Low-Quoted Motors
Reach 19R Peaks
In Mixed Session
BY VICTOR EUBANK.
Associated Press FinAncie. W-its


NEW YORK, July 31.-Assorted
stocks continued to reach for recov-
|ery in today's market, although many
leaders faltered when confronted by
light selling pressure.
Low-quoted motors dominated the
ticker tape from the start, with Gra-
ham-Paige and Hupp touching 1945
peaks In the forenoon. Both later
backed away when 1t was suggested
that talk OF huge passenger car pro-
duction In the near future may have
been oyerdone. A few utilities such
as Electric Power 6s Light exhibited
strength. These apparently were
buoyed by recapitalization prospects.
Mail orders enjoyed a play. Rails
were more or less Indifferent.
Dealings slowed after midday and
extreme gains running to three
points or so were reduced In most
cases near the close and minus signs
cropped up here and there. Trans
fers ran to around 1000 900 shares.
Lessening OF worries over British
politics and the belief the list was in
. healthier technical shape inspired
a certain amount of buying. Earn
ings and dividends provided bullish
arguments. Skeptics remained in
neutral territory, however, pending
news from Potsdam and the Far
East.

Commissioner Of Revenue Joseph
D. Nunan, jr. in a letter to Emil
Schram, president OF the New York
Stock Exchange, pointed out that
under the law the commissioner
could require every broker to SUBJ

because Of the enormous work in

nue. workers obtain what informa-
tion they needed directly from the
books Of the firms.
The purpose Of the investigation

Full Work Bill Theory
Accepted by Nation,
Utah Senator Says

Senator Thomas, Democrat, OF
Utah, one Of the sponsors OF the
full employment bill, told the Sem
ate Banking Committee today that
the theory OF the measure "has
already been accepted as national
policy In America and as q ma
tional policy by so nations"
He said the first national recog-
milton of the full employment prin-
ciple on q broad scale in this coun-
try came last October, when Con-
gress passed the Surplus Property
Disposal Act. The other nations
subscribed to the principle at the
International Labor Organization's
convention in Philadelphia last
May, he continued.
After today's testimony, thu
committee will recess the hearins'
until fall, at which time the full
employment bill promises to be.
come q major issue on Capitol Hill
It seeks to prevent future depres'
sions by having the President ant
Congress make an annual survey o
the expected volume Of privat'
business, and the number Of job
that volume will produce.
Could Increase Opportunities.
Whenever this estimate of jobs i
less than the available labor sup
ply, Congress would consider step
to create more Job opportunities.
Representative Patman, Demo
crat, Of Texas, also a sponsor Of tn.
measure, said the bill has nothini
to do with made" work, nor is i
intended to help those unwilling t,
work.
Testifying in behalf of the legis'
lation, Mr.. Patman asserted:
I'VE are talking about useful en-
ployment, not just made work. w,
are talking about opportunities TO
all who are able to work and VIII,
are willing to work"
Mr.. Patman noted the bills pro
viso that the Federal Government
''has an obligation" to take up un
employment slack when privat
enterprise is unable, but, he said:
This can mean useful publ
works, necessary and desirabl
public services. 1t can mean direc

homeowners, State or local govern
ments. But the major point Is that
there Is to be no new WPA."
Declaration Of Principle.
Senator Thomas said the refer
ence to the right" to work In the
declaration Of policy in the bill, is
not "a guarantee in law, but 1t Is q
perfectly consistent use Of the word.
and its use has always found place
in our American political and con-
stitutional literature. The right to
work is declaration Of principle. I"
The Utah Senator also recalled
that in the Selective Service Act
Congress accepted the theory Of
guaranteeing a drafted man his job
when he returns to civilian life. He
said the constitutionality of the pro-
vision was debated at the time.

Hy the Associated Press

BY the Associated Press.
STOCKHOLM, May S. Gen.
Franz Boeme, German army COM
mander in Norway, Cancelled a
scheduled radio address last night
by Maj. Vidkun Quisling, Nazi pup
pet premier, and called Quisling to
his headquarters at Lillehammer
the Swedish Norwegian news agen-
cy said today.
The agency added that on Thurs
day afternoon an estimated $4,000
Hirdmen, the Quisling version of
the IS (elite guards, were mobil-
lied by telephone and placed at
Boemes disposal The Hirdmen
were given yellow armbands
marked "Duetsche Wehrmacht."
At the same time, the agency
said, posters appeared at Oslo warn
Ing Quisling's nasjonal samling
party members that any persons
who resisted Norwegian or Allied
troops would not be considered bel
ligerents or taken prisoner, but
would be shot.
The warning was taken as an
indication that Allied troops were
expected soon, the agency said, and
the armbands were believed to be
a measure of protection for the
Hirdmen-so that they would be re-
garded, as military personnel in the
event of surrender.

Further controls over liquor whole

Alan w. Payne, chairman of the

He charged yesterday, in COM

Washington was being made a

beverages"
Mr.. Payne said the percentage
OF liquor brought into the Distric,
by retailers holding import license:
has steadily increased, and that al
present a third of total imports
are made by retailers.
Much of this liquor, he said, was
of inferior grade. He added: I'VE
suspect, but can't prove, that a
good deal of it may be black-market
whisky"
The proposal that the District
Commissioners abolish the retaile,
import system, he said, was the f1rst
step in the boards plan to improve
the quality of liquor sold here. The
next step would be further controls

Rev. Patrick Murphy
Finally Obtains Home

The affairs of the Rev. Patrick
Murphy, until last week the only
remaining tenant on the square on
Washington Circle, where 400-bed
George Washington University Hos
pital will be built, seemed at last to
be in order today.
Richard Galiher, attorney for Mr.
Murphy, announced yesterday
consent judgment had given his
client possession of two Of the
houses he bought after he sold 2215
and 2217 I street NV. to the Gov
eminent for S33 900.
| The 89-year-old retired Episcopal
clergyman will move soon into the
houses at 1927 Pennsylvania avenue
and 1908 Twenty-fourth street NV.
He plans to open a connection be-
tween the two houses and live in
both of them, since his many effects
and streams of visitors would over
flow one house
| A third house bought by Mr..
Murphy will continue to be operated
as a rooming house by Joseph
Levengard, who has had possession
of all three houses until now. The
third house is 1908 Twenty-fourth
street NV.
Last week the Government moved
Mr.. Murphy into a room at 1926
Pennsylvania avenue and stored his
belongings for him, while he COM
pleted his negotiations for possess
sion of his new houses.
