He said they could be found
guilty of rape as charged which
would mean the death sentence,

Stocks Decline
Again.; Trading
Fairly Active

NEW YORK. Feb. 9 (AP).-
The stock market degistered an
other moderate decline in fairly
active trading early this after
noon.
The market seemed likely to
go through its third straight
daily setback.
Leading issues fell from frac-
tions to point or so. A few
issues bucked the downtrend,
making gains in about the same
range as the losses.
Turnover continued to decline
as prices softened, rejecting a
decline in trading interest
rather than selling pressure,
The market seemed insensitive
to good news,
Rails were lackadaisical and
about unchanged on average,
despite news of big increase
in freight carloadings. Brokers
said the market seemed to be
resuming a consolidation phase
it needs to undergo prior to any
resumption of last years bullish
trend.
Stsels, coppers and oils were
lower. Most motors were OH,
Chrysler being an exception.
Rubbers, chemicals, tobaccos
and drugs we're mixed.
Ford lost a point following
news of layoffs due to a shift
in demand toward smaller en-
gines and away from the bigger
eight-cylinder jobs.
Zenith Cancelled a 2-point
decline and was fractionally
higher.
United States Steel was ac-
tive on the downside, showing
loss of more than a point

increasing production and de-

Auto Output
HitsLOW Mark

DETROIT, Feb. 6 (AP).-
The auto industry this week
hits the lowest level of passen-
ger car output so far in 1859.
The production drop to
around ll6,800 units compared
with last weeks nearly 10000
reflects the continued shut
down of most Chrysler fac
tories and the elimination of
Saturday overtime work by
most other makers. But the
assembly volume still is ahead
of the comparable 1858 period
and sales volume promises TO
stimulate daily output volume
this month.
The factories built approxi-
mately $4,000 cars last month.
They have scheduled $4,000
for production in February.
The difference is accounted
for by the fact February has
one less working day than had
January.
Thus, while here and there
some makers have reduced pro-
duction schedules others have
increased them. Wards Auto
motive Report noted in its cur
rent issue that, at $4,000 as
semblies this month, output
will be far above that Of Febru-
ary a year ago. At that time
production totaled 392,112 cars.
The statistical agency noted,
also, that General Motors,
Ford, American Motors and
Studebaker-Packard are pro-
viding the biggest part of the
output upsurge as compared
with February last year.
1t comments that Chrysler,
still stymied by glass supplier
strike. may get only $4,000 as
semblies this month. It's origi-
nal schedule called for $4,000
One of the few car makers
to produce fewer cars so far
this year than it did in 1858
Chrysler rolled out 51,285 cars
last month. In the same 1858
month it built 65,657 cars.
Chrysler said today. how
ever, that it will put back to
work next Wednesday 5000
employees at the Dodge as
Sembly plant in Hamtramck.
This will leave about $4,000
employees at other assembly
plants IN the Nation still idled
