Stock Market Values
Decline One Billion
In Weeks Operations
By William D. Horeon
Associated Press Financial Writer

NEW YORK, Nov. 4.-For the
second week in a row the big bull
market of 1949-50 acted mighty
tired.
Twice during the week short
selling jabs caught the market off
guard. There were rallies, but
they were notable more for their
timidity than for the amount of
ground they covered.
The net result of the week S
operations was loss approach
ing 81 million in the market value
of all stocks listed on the ex-
change. This was good only in
comparison with a week earlier
when the paper loss added up to
well over 81 billion.
Business news during the week
was rich enough for the market
to grow fat and sassy. There
was no outstanding unfavorable
development to account for the
obvious reluctance of buyers to
step into the market on any scale.
High Profits Cited.
Probably never in history had
Wall Street been glutted with SO
many record high profits reports,
SO many increased and extra
dividends. And to add a touch
of spice was a generous helping
of proposals to split outstanding
stock issues.
Market response, though, was
niggardly-it may have been a
case of too much of good thing.
Traders were more concerned
with what the administration
planned to do in the field of taxes
and controls and most felt that
the bad news wouldn't be laid on
the line until after the elections
on November 7.
An unafavorable turn to the war
news from Korea also dampened
the enthusiasm of some traders.
And the inability of the market
to make any progress during spo-
radio attempts to rally had a
strong psychological effect. If the
market can't advance, according
to this theory, there's only one
other way it can move.
Margin Change Feared.
There is some concern in the
financial district that one of the
curbs the Federal Reserve has in
mind is an increase in the margin
required to buy stocks. At pres
ent buyers may purchase stock
with only so per cent of the price
in cash.
During the war margin pur-
chases were not allowed.
The Associated Press average of
go stocks slipped 80 cents to
$3.50. This compared with $3.50
a week earlier.

Week S Business Dips
As Result Of Decline
In Consumer Demand
By 6. A. Phillips
Associated Press Business Writer

NEW YORK, Nov. 4.-Business
activity registered a small decline
this week. principally as a result
of drop in consumer demand.
Despite the modest dip, which
was contraseasonal industry in
general operated at near-capacity
marks.
A good idea Of overall condi-
tons was the record high electric
power output. This is the most
trustworthy of all business barom-
eters because it is affected by day
to-day activity In all lines of bust
ness.
Retail trade was on the tenn
perature side again this week, with
blame for lowered volume resting
between unseasonably hot weatl'e
in most sections and the sitter
credit terms on purchases of
hard goods"
Retail Trade Index.
Dun 81 Bradstreet's weekly
survey of retail trade disclosed
lessened interest in apparel and
house furnishings, while demand
for food remained high. In almost
all areas total dollar purchases
were well ahead of year ago.
Some economists believe the
Christmas shopping season, al
ready behind schedule for one
reason or another, will swing into
a more normal pattern next week.
Two legal holidays in the week
Election Day on Tuesday and
Armistice Day on Saturday-Will
give stores an occasion for special
promotions.
Consumer response will afford
some insight into the question of
how much of the ordinary Christ
mas business was done in the big
rush on stores right after out
break of the Korean war.
Steel Output Down.
Slightly lower trends in bust
ness this week were highlighted
by a decline in steel output, tht
first in 10 weeks.
Steel mill operations fell to
1924 per cent of capacity from
1925 last week, and tonnage at
100000 stacked up against last
weeks record high of 1,978,900.
Last year at this time the indus
try was in the midst of labor
troubles, with operations at 8.8
per cent and only 10000 tons of
steel products turned out.
Freight car loadings dipped to
1880 from 800 800 In the pre-
ceding week and compared with
591,315 year ago. Half of the
small decline was in miscellaneous
loadings, which totaled 422, 1856
against 424,716 week earlier.

Clio Union Decides
Against GE Strike
BY the ASsoeioted Press

NEW YORK. Aug. 17.-CIO
Electrical union officials decided
yesterday not to take a strike vote
against the General Electric Co.
The announcement was made
after a meeting of the unions GE
conference board The session
was called after contract talks
broke down Thursday between the
company and the CIO Interna-
tional Union of Electrical Work
erS.
The IUE has $4,000 members
in so GE plants throughout the
country.
The union decision was an
nounced by James B. Carey, ad-
ministrative chairman Of the
union and secretary treasurer of
the CIO.
Mr.. Carey said the conference
board unanimously rejected the
last company offer of a 3 per cent
general wage increase. The union
seeks at least a 10-cent hourly
wage bost for every employe in
addition to the 3 per cent.
Previously. the union had given
out information indicating that
GE workers received an hourly
wage of $1.65 last year. Yester-
day, Mr.. Carey termed that fig
ure too high, but he did not elab-
crate.
Other union demands include
improved vacation and holiday
schedules, pensionS promotion
plans an dnight work premiums.
Contract talks also are proceed
ing between GE and the inde-
pendent United Electric Workers
Union, which is seeking similar
benefits. The UE, which repre-
sents about $1,000 other GE en-
ployes, was ousted from the CIO
last year on grounds of Commu-
mist domination.

SURVEY FIGHT
REFRAcTIQN

Denver - (AP) - Measuring
mountains from New Mexico to
the Canadian border, plus Alas
ka. is part of the job of the peo-
pie who work under the u. S.
Geological surveys Rocky Noun
tain Regional Engineer Robert
10. Davis. Davis admits that
some of the present figures may
be off a few feet.
The principal reason for errors
is the refraction of sight, caused
by the varying densities of the
Atmosphere. The Denver office of
the geological survey is planning
an experiment to try to correct
for this curvature.
Our field party will work from
the top of q mountain and an
other from the base. Using port
able radios, both parties will take
readings at exactly the same
minute, and thus corrections can
be made for refraction. It has to
be done this way because chang
es in the atmosphere can change
the degree of refraction in as lit
tie as an hour.
