Stock Market Drifts
Moderately Lower
In Quiet Session
By Victor Eubonk
Associcfed Press Financial Write

NEW YORK, Jan. 16.-Seiline
continued to dominate today's stock
market with leaders yielding frac-
tions to point or so.
Dealings, quiet at the opening
picked up when offerings became q
bit more urgent around midday
There were subsequent s,owdowns
as mild support arrived Extreme
declines were shaded here and there
near the fourth hour. ...
Further liquidation was attributed
partly to persistent skepticism re-
garding the business outlook, labor
situations, congressional moves and
taxes. Some bidding was based on
the idea the list might be due for
a technical revival after the recent
substantial retreat. Weakness OF
cotton futures was a handicap for
stocks.
In the backward division were
U. S. Steel, Bethlehem, General
Motors, Goodrich, Montgomery
Ward. Douglas Aircraft. Oliver
Corp, American Telephone, West
ern Union "a" North American
Southern Pacific, Southern Railway
Schenley, Twentieth Century Fox
Paramount Pictures, international
Paper, Kennecott, American Smelt-
ing, Du Pont, Johns -Manville and
East man Kodak
Bonds trailed with shares.

Kon-Tiki Raft Crew
Finds PIankton Tasty
Means Of Survival
By Thor Hsysrdohl


g NeYh Amefte0h NeWSp0pof AttI0hee
ABOARD THE KoN-TrKI RAFT
EXPEDITION. July 17.-In the 10
weeks that we have drifted 3,l7S
miles westward from Peru, we have
conducted numerous experiments
for the British and American Gov
ernments. Some Of these are
scientific, and some have to do with
survival equipment and methods.
One Of the most interesting of these
experiments, and one that combines
both fields, is the test with plankton.
At the suggestion OF DR.. Alexander
Bajkov, formerly of the United
States Army Air Forces aero-medi-
cal laboratory, we brought with US
a special cone-shaped silk net with
nearly 5000 meshes per square inch.
Dr.. Bajkov had an idea that plank
ton, the fundamental food supply
for al sea life in every ocean,
might also be eaten by men and
keep them alive when adrift.
Plankton is a collective name
for the myriad tiny living crea-
lures which inhabit the. ocean. AL
fish. including whales and other
marine animals, either feed on
plankton or on smaller tish which
eat plankton.
To collect these tiny animals, we
use DR.. Bajkov's special net, which
meter at the leading end.
Our best daily catches contain
from hve to 10 pounds OF tiny
shrimp-hke copepods, miniature
pelagic crabs and other crustaceans
-Four members of our six-man
expedition have found plankton
not only edible, but great delicacy.
The other two. who do not like
seafood anyway. showed marked
aversion to the color and consis-
tency of our plankton hauls. A
typical catch would jam the net
with a fairly solid paste having
different colored layers: some red,
some green and some gray. depend
ing on the type of plankton in each.
After dumping our catch on deck,
we always pick out the few half
inch-long coelenterates UellyhSh-
like sea animals) as we have found
that they have a bitter taste. The
copepods and egg plankton are very
palatable when eaten raw. having
