Many Stock Leaders
|At New 1947 Lows
lin Light Selling
By Victor Eubonk
Associated Press Finoneiol Writer

NEW YORK, Mar. 14.-Share
owners, apparently still in a foreign
affairs fog, continued on the selling
side in today's market and many
leaders touched new lows for the
year or longer with losses of frac-
tions to or more points.
Comforting to the Bulls was the
fact that offerings generally were
far from urgent. The ticker tape
loafed until the second hour when
there was a brief active retreating
furry. Subsequent slowdowns even
tuated and extreme declines were
reduced in the majority Of cases
near the fourth hour. i
Wall Street admittedly was con-
fused over President Trumai's new
foreign policy although profession
ais were more cautious than bear
ish. The prospect of expanding
loans to Europe tended to chill
hopes for tax relief and a certain
amount Of liquidation was attributed
to this factor.
Bidding, here and there, was
based on the idea that the list was
in shape for q substantial techni-
cal comeback.

Social Security Law
Revisions Sought TO
Check Chronic Relief

Congress has before 1t today a
demand for revision of the social
security laws to correct abuses here
and throughout the country and to
prevent Americans from going on
public relief permanently.
Representative Koran, Republican,
of Washington, who is chairman of
the House Appropriations Subcom-
mittee on the District. told the
House late yesterday of conditions
here which he recently characterized
as rotten" He called on Congress
to look into relief affairs in their
own districts throughout the coun-
try.
Wants Local Solutions.
Mr.. Horan asked that members of
Congress consider ways of plugging
the loopholes in our present national
social security laws" These, he
said, would include broadening local
control In the administration of the
laws, and, most important, effect
ing programs that will make re-
Mobilization of persons the criterion
of all our efforts"
The problems of rehabilitation,
he said, should be met locally in
each community. This conclusion
he said he reached as result of his
committees investigation into the
relief situation here.
1--WE must give to our welfare ad-
ministrators on that local level" he
said" the means and authority to
undertake their task with a much
wider degree of fiexibility than now
granted them under provisions of
the Social Security Act.
Checkups Suggested.
1T appears to me to be the ap-
propriate time for Congress to con-
slider carefully whether a system OF
monthly payments, given to -unem-
playable indigents in our many
communities throughout the Nation
and designed originally to alleviate
distress in an emergency, is to be-
come a regular function of govern
ment in good times and bad"
He suggested a national applica-
ton of reforms he recently pro-
posed for Washington. These in
cluded check against the asses
sor's Office to find if relief recipients
own income-producing property; a
check of penal institutions to learn
if relief clients have criminal rec
ords. and check of employment
agencies to determine whether relief
applicants are employable.
