By First Batch Of
3d-0uarter Earnings
By Walter Breede. Jr.
ASoeioted Press Business Writer

NEW YORK, Oct. 1.-THE
first batch of third-quarter earn
ings reports gave business a
psychological lift this week.
They topped a week in which
most key indicators pointed
higher. Advances were reported
in such vital areas of the econ
omy as auto production, heavy
construction contract awards
money in circulation and retail
trade. Steel output, scheduled
at just under 95 per cent of
capacity, showed little change
from the week before
OF the first 80 companies re-
porting for July through Sep
tember, two out of three showed
higher profits. Their total
earnings after taxes were nearly
"a per cent higher than a year
ago.
Another major influence on
business was renewed agitation
on Capitol Hill for high farm
price supports. 1t followed the
surprise election of Demo-
cratic candidate for Congress
from a Republican farm district
in Wisconsin.
Congressional announcements
In favor of a strong price sup
port policy started a bull market
in the Chicago grain pits, where
July wheat punched to a 1858

Corporafes Continue
Firm, Fairly Active;
Treasures Irregular
By Arthur Merims
Associated Press FinaneiaI Writer

NEW YORK, Oct. 17.-Gov-
ernment bond prices turned ir-
regular this week after a month
Of almost uninterrupted progress.
But the corporate bond market
continued firm and fairly active.
With plenty of investment
money in the hands of bankers
and insurance company execu-
tives, high-grade obligations
were in great demand. Utilities
and railroads were favorites. And
new municipal financing VEN
lures were quick successes.
The Treasury's 30-year 314s
climbed to 103A bid, record
sos per cent yield, at midweek.
But by the close Friday, they had
slipped to 1O31s bid. Long-term
Victory 21as dipped 1s on the
week at 95 bid. The 21as of 1858
advanced that much at 1902 bid.
The 23ss of 1858 were steady
at 80 1915 bid.
II Interest Rates Fall.
An eased money market was
reflected in falling interest rates.
For the second time in three
weeks, leading investment bank
ing firms cut the prime rate on
commercial paper of short ma
turity. Businessmen of we'll
regarded concerns can now bor-
row up to six months at 2R per
cent instead of 25ss. Only three
weeks ago, the cost was 234 per
cent.
Toll road financing set a new
record this week when the New
Jersey Turnpike Authority sold
$3.50 million of revenue tax-ex-
empts at a net interest charge
of 3.49 per cent. The 33s per
cent 35-year bonds were an i'm
mediate sellout and quickly
traded at premium Pay-as-

total $615 million this year.

japanese dollar bonds were

The West German government
offered to exchange six defaulted
dollar bond issues, properly
identified as to ownership, for

were the Dawes" loan, two is

D. {. Man Convicted
OF Attacking Women
In 1947 Is ParoIed

A Washington man convicted
of rape and assault and battery
involving two women has been
paroled from the Maryland Pen
ttentiary after serving less than
seven years of an original 20
year sentence.
James r. Sullivan, now 80,
had been convicted in Prince
Georges County Circuit Court
in May, 1947, of raping a 81
year-old California visitor to
Washington on February 8,
1947, near Seat Pleasant, Md
He also was found guilty a week
later on charge of assault and
battery against a 41-year-old
housewife. near Kenilworth, on
September %, 1916.
He drew a 15-year sentence on
the rape charge and five years
on the assault count, the same
as a companion, Earl w. Hunt,
33. of Huntsville, Md. A third
man, John F. Culloty, 35, then
listed as living in the 5000 block
of YoSt place NE, was given a
five-year sentence on a charge
of assault with intent to commit
rape on the housewife.
Sullivan, listed then as living
in the 1900 block of L street
NV, was a father of two chill
dren.
According to the Maryland
State Parole Board which rec
commended the release of Sulli-
van, his sentence later was re-
duced to II years. In Maryland,
prisoners are eligible for parole
for good behavior after serving
one-third of their sentences.
The parole board has released
263 persons since it went into
operation early in August, a re-
port revealed yesterday. Sullivan
was one of 43 released from
Maryland prisons this month:

Selection Of Durkin
On Religious Basis
Assailed by Baptist

A top Baptist Church leader
today assailed President-elect
Eisenhower for appointing a
cabinet officer on the basis of
his religion.
Obviously referring to but not
naming Secretary of Labor
designate Durkin, DR.. Joseph M.
Dawson, executives secretary of
the Joint Baptist Committee on
Public Affairs. declared "I en-
phatically denounce Mr.. Eisen-
hower's appointment of a man
to the Cabinet on the basis of
his faith. That question should
not enter the picture"
Mr.. Dawson declared that Eve
agree that no one shall be de-
MED public office on the basis
of his personal faith. BY the
same token, no one must be ap-
pointed to public Office on the
OASIS Oh his IdlCn.
The speaker made it clear that
he was not opposing the appoint
ment of Secretary of Labor Dur
kin as such but was merely voic-
ing opposition to any religious
considerations entering into the
appointment or election to public
Office.
Speaks of Session Here
DR.. Dawson spoke at a meeting
this morning of Protestants and
Other Americans United for
Separation of Church and State
at Luther Place Memorial
Church, Thomas Circle.
1t had been reported that
President-elect Eisenhower said
he wanted to appoint a Catholic
and a Jew to top positions so as
to give representation to these
faiths in his administration. Mr..
Durkin is a Catholic.
DR.. w. Stanley Rycroft, secre-
tary for Latin America of the
Presbyterian Board of Foreign
Missions, told the group last
night that Colombian Catholics
have seized on political turmoil
in that country to harass the
Protestant religion.
Sees Freedom Repressed.
Freedom has been repressed,
and terror reigns in many parts
of the country" he said. Fifty
thousand persons have died
since 1949 lin an undeclared civil
war. The Catholic Church has
chosen this opportune moment
to destroy Professionalism in CO.
lombia. This statement will be
challenged, but it is my con-
viction."
Hits Spanish Condition.
Another speaker, the Rev.
Paul E. Freed. of Greensboro.
N. c., described the condition Of
Professionalism in Spain as pre-
carious. He said that, in five
trips to Spain. he had been
granted seven two-hour inter-
views with top Spanish officials,
some of cabinet rank. but got no
definite assurances of improved
conditions.
He pointed out the country'S
economic plight, but he insisted
the United States should mot
send the first dime to Spain
without a guarantee of religious
liberty" for all.
Guests of honor who attended
last nights banquet meeting in
the First Congregational Church,
Tenth and G. streets NV, were
the Rev. Frederick E. Reissig,
executive secretary of the Wash
ington Federation of Churches;
the Rev. Frederick c. Fowler of
the Commission on Evangelism;
the Rev. William Southgate of
Roanoke, Va. and Representa-
tive Preston, Democrat. of Geor-
gia.
Earlier in the day, the Rev.
Edwin NJ. Poteat. of Raleigh,
N. c., was reelected president
of the organization. Named as
vice presidents were:
Methodist Bishop G. Bromley
Oman, of Washington; DR..
Charles Clayton Morrison, of
Chicago, and DR.. John A. Mac
Kay, president of Princeton
Theological Seminary.
