cents a barrel early in the week, and
Barnsoall followed yesterday. 9th
ers in the industry indicated they
would not follow at this time unless
forced by the pressure of competi-
ton.
Rails had a considerable follow
ing. AS anticipated, the railroads
asked the Interstate Commerce
Commission for an average per
cent freight rate increase, which
would bring them an estimated ad-
ditional $672, 100000 in revenue next
yearif granted.
Despite the markets staying pow
ers, brokers still underline the i'm
portance to the market of develop
ments in the European political
sphere. They point to the severe
jolt the market took Monday that
set stocks back to the levels of
April IA. The cause was the dec
laration by the Western Powers in
Paris that the Russian blockade of
Berlin was threat to world peace.
That was enough to send prices
tumbling in Wall Street.
AS the week wore on there were
no further alarms, and the market
ignored the accusations made by
Russian Delegate Vishinsky against
the United States and others.
Domestic economic factors began
to take hold, and the market en-
phasized such things as the highly
favorable railroad net operating in
come for August, the continued
record steel production and heavy
automobile output. Good earnings
statements and increased or extra
dividends exerted leverage on in
dividual stocks. but there seemed to
be no cumulative effect of these
good tidings.
Brokers continued nevertheless to
display caution. and some frankly
voiced their confusion over the ques-
tion OF whether an American de-
fiation is impending and if so when
1t would hit. There was round dis
agreement over the answer.

Nine Will Go on Trial

OF Numbering Gandhi
BY the Assoeioied Press

NEW DELHI, India, May a.
The alleged trigeerman and eight
co-defendants accused Of engineer
ing the assassination of Mohandas
K. Gandhi are expected to 60 on
trial for their lives next week in
historic Red Fort here.
The exact day the trial will begin
is still secret, presumably because
the government fears an outbreak
of riots or disturbances such as
marked the period Immediately
after Gandhis assassination Janu-
a1y so.
Security forces are taking elab-
crate precautions to prevent any
attempt to deliver N. v. Godse,
obscure Poona newspaper editor,
and his eight co-defendants, or
shoot them down in court or other
wise silence them.
Fort to be Cordoned Of.
The great stone fort built by
Mogul emperor and once the home
of be-iewelled Moslem rulers will
be cordoned off completely. Sc
curity guards will be posted every
where about the high lowered walls
whose half-mile circumference in
closes palaces, shrines and military
buildings.
Only newspaper reporters and a
handful Of spectators will be ad-
mitted to the small bare courtroom
and then only after a careful
screening and search. Women have
been told they will not be allowed to
take their purses in and no photog-
raphers will be allowed.
Reliable sources say $50 witnesses
will be heard and that the trial
may drag through the intense heat
Of the New Delhi summer. On
the first day the court is expected
to hear the reading of the charges
and then recess for two weeks.
The nine accused will be tried be-
fore a jury chosen by lot which
will determine their guilt or in
nocence. Atma Charan, small city

Besides Godse, who was seized
allegedly with a smoking pistol in
his hand when Gandhi was shot
down on his prayer meeting ground,
I the other defendants include:
Gopal Vinayak Godse. brother.
v. D. Savarkar, former president
of the Hindu Mahasabha, bitterly
anti-Moselm party.
MADAM Lal, who is accused of

| ing 10 days before the assassina-
ton.
All are charged with murder,
conspiracy to murder and violations
