Brief Selling Wave
Pounds Stocks Again;
Losses Cut Later
sy the Asseeie,ed Press

NEW YORK. June 29.-An-
other burst of selling scared the
stock market today.
In a short but intense morning
selling attack prices were pounded
down as much as 81 a share be-
fore levelling of. Most leaders
managed to creep up from tie
days lows and only a few losses
exceeded 50 a share.
Trading expanded rapidly when
quotations were sliding. Selling
orders poured into the exchange
so fast that for about half ar
hour the high-speed ticker tape
Jagged in reporting dealings on
the floor.
The decline was linked in some
quarters with rumors concerning
developments in Korea. Such ru-
mors were considered a normal
result of tense nerves created by
our Intervention in hostilities.
Today's abrupt plunge was the
latest in a series Of sensational
fluctuations in the market touched
off first on Monday.
Among the hardest hit shares
were General Motors. United
States Rubber, United States
Steel, Republic Steel. American
Telephone, Consolidated Edison
Kennecott Copper. Du Pont, Al
lied Chemical, Westinghouse Elec-
trio. Standard Oil IN. J0. South
ern Railway. Nickel Plate Johns
Manville, United States Gypsum
Sears Roebuck, Schenley, Admiral
Corp. International Paper and
Lehigh Portland Cement.

tions might improve some time
in the future. Another sugges-
ton from the floor was that all
school construction in the county
be halted till a new survey of
total needs could be made, to be
followed by a re-allocation of
available funds.
Judge L. ]. Phipps said that
the school could be built by the
people themselves, just as the
polio hospital in Greensboro was
built. I'm this room right now"
he said, "are some of North
Carolina's best masons, car
penters, and bricklayers. And /

self" Judge Phipps reminded
his hearers that the need for
better white school facilities was
also urgent and that white
schooIchildren had been occupy
ing makeshift quarters ever
since the high school burned ir
1912.
While no vote was taken on
any of the suggestions made at
the meeting, it was plain that
the general feeling of those pres
ent was that some way be found
to build the school according to
the original plan.

Problem Of Negro School Being Studied
(Continued from first page

present dilemma arose from the
fact that, on the advice Of state
school authorities in Raleigh,
the county authorities had
planned a building designed to
cost s6 square foot, while the
lowest bid amounted TO S8.65 a
foot.
According to the facts ex-
planned by Mr.. Gobbel and given
in a mimeographed sheet dis
tributed at the meeting, the low
est bid was $35O,833, including
equipment, while the money ap-
propriated was $235, 900. AS
planned, the building would have
II classrooms, library, home
making room, cafeteria, kitchen,
science room, principals Office
and reception room, first-aid
room, book room, toilets, boiler
and coal rooms, shower and stor-
age rooms, parking pavement
for busses, and an auditorium
gymnasium.
Twas explained that the total
cost of the building could be cut
to $253,542 (which exceeds the
funds available by $18,542) by
eliminating the auditorium-gym-
nasium and several lesser items,
including corridor tile, asphalt
floor covering, lockers, paved
parking area, and site improve
ments.
The proposal for the elimina-
tion of the auditorium-gym-
nasium was strongly opposed in
talks by several Negro leaders,
including Kenneth Jones, Hubert
Robinson, Rev. ]. r. Manley,
James Snipes, Fred Edwards,
and Henry Edwards, all Of whom
felt that a way must be found to
build the school as originally
planned.
In reply to a suggestion that
the present bids be rejected and
new ones called for, Samuel T.
Emory, chairman Of the school
board, said that the threat of
war made it unlikely that lower
bids could be secured.
1t was also suggested that
work on the school be postponed
in the hope that building condi-

majority member of that COM
mittee, second in rank only to
the Senator who is chairman.
During the war he made fre-
quent visits to arsenals and
training camps, and he also went
on inspections Of storage depots
and Army installations in the
Caribbean and Brazil. All the
while he was studying reports
and having interviews with spe-
cialists in the military supply
departments. The purpose of all
this was to gain knowledge that
would enable him to understand
what the military men were
talking about when they came
to Congress with their requests
for funds.
The more he observed, and
the more he studied the record
of the bad situation the country
was in because of the lack of es-
sential war materials at the time
Iof the attack on Pearl Harbor,
the more he was impressed by
the necessity of keeping on hand
a store of these materials. His
interest in the subject, and the
knowledge of it that he dis
closed in his conversations with
his fellow members of the House,
I led to his being made chairman

It is chiefly as a result Of the
work Of this committee that the

quantities Of zinc, tin, man

crude rubber.

that was once scarce or unob-
